Orochimaru's words sounded like a joke, and Kazama and Yamatachi were stunned after hearing this, and they couldn't react for a while.

Don't be too ridiculous, you are looking for our village to find us Sand Shinobi to cooperate? That is, there is a poisonous snake on the body, otherwise we would have called people to beat you up in a righteous group! Kazama's eyes became unkind.

No, Konoha's three shinobi actually came to talk about cooperation with a sand ninja and a rock ninja who was undercover in Sand Hidden Village? Yamatachi nervously looked left and right, feeling that things had suddenly become extremely troublesome.

No way, Orochimaru himself is synonymous with trouble, and even many Konoha ninjas are reluctant to come into contact with him, let alone the ninjas in the outer villages.

"Huh? The two of you seem to be a little unimpressed with my cooperation. Orochimaru slowly narrowed his eyes, and the viper he had released climbed onto the bed and chair, easily wrapping around Kazama and Yamatachi's necks and tightening it a little.

In front of Orochimaru, Kazama and the bright side are middle ninjas, but in fact, they are particularly perceptual, and the upper ninja mountain oranges are as fragile as children.

Relying on these snakes alone will control the two of them to death, but this is also related to the fact that neither of them is good at frontal combat, otherwise Orochimaru will definitely have to work hard.

Kazama, who was strangled by a snake and had difficulty breathing, said toughly, "How can we possibly cooperate with you?" ”

Orochimaru moved his gaze thoughtfully, looking at the mountain orange who had a ghost on the side.

This glance seems to be able to see through the mountain orange.

A cold sweat broke out behind Yamatachi, and he asked with a reluctant smile, "What do you want to work with?" ”

"Many, I'm interested in both the Glass Snake and the several forbidden spells created by the Second Generation Kazekage."

Orochimaru stretched out his hand, as if he was about to grab Kazama and Yamamana together, and slowly clenched it: "Since I'm here, then I want them all." ”

"It's hard, the Glass Serpent is not as magical as it is rumored, it is just a deceptive bait, valuable, but not as high as you think." Yamatachi didn't mind working with Orochimaru, but he didn't want Orochimaru to be too greedy and drag him into the water.

"It's okay, it's good to see more." Orochimaru put down his hand and said casually, he had expected that immortality would be such a simple thing.

Yamachimaru couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Orochimaru's very rational appearance, and turned his mind and said, "Then let's talk." ”

Kazama looked at Yamatachi in disbelief when he heard this, but Yamazaka gave him a reassuring look, and Kazama had to hold back his emotions for a while.

"The attitude is not sincere enough." Orochimaru raised his hand again, and a stout snake swam under his hand and opened its mouth wide, spitting out an arm covered in slime.

Orochimaru grabbed that arm with a smile and slowly pulled the upper body of a male ninja out of the snake's mouth.

"Red ants!" Kazama and Yamatachi exclaimed at the same time.

This is their best companion, and he has actually been captured by Orochimaru.

Yama Tachibana's face became particularly ugly, the red ant was his real companion, and when he was attacked by Konoha undercover agents before, it was the red ant who came to his rescue in time.

"He's very imprudent compared to you." Orochimaru looked at Yamachibana, and his smile became colder and colder, "Am I right, Iwa Shinobi's undercover agent?" ”

Kazama froze completely, and before he could speak, the snake on his neck suddenly tightened violently, and the huge snake's mouth opened and bit down.

…………

Xie Mao's whole body trembled and woke up from his sleep, he opened his mouth and gasped, his eyes looked at the ceiling in horror, and after a while, he sat up a little groggily, and he had lingering palpitations about the nightmare just now.

He dreamed that he faced Jiraiya again, racking his brains and using all his means, but under Jiraiya's attack, he did not hold on to ten moves, and was pierced to death by countless silver hairs like a thousand books.

Although he knew very well that it was just a dream, when he thought back to last night's battle, Xie Mao could still clearly feel his vulnerability.

His own strength is only a medium ninja at most, and he must rely on the glass snake to fight with the upper ninja, but in front of the powerful upper ninja, especially in the face of the ninja known as the "shadow level", the ending will be easily crushed like yesterday, and there is a possibility of death at any time.

Only by advancing to Sequence 7 will I have enough life-saving ability...... The drowsiness in Xie Mao's mind quickly dissipated, he looked at the somewhat messy quilt in front of him, and said slowly: "I must find a way to get the next chakra of the tailed beast." ”

When it was time to eat breakfast, Xie Mao looked at Xiao Nan and asked, "How did you sleep last night?" ”

"It's fine." Xiao Nan yawned softly, and it seemed that the quality of sleep was not good.

Everyone has their own worries, and before last night, Xie Mao wouldn't say anything, but after last night's incident, his relationship with Xiao Nan became much closer, so he said, "I didn't sleep well either." ”

Xiao Nan blinked, tilted his head slightly to look at Xie Mao, and asked, "You can't sleep like me?" ”

"Not really." There is meditation, Xie Mao does not suffer from insomnia, "I just had a nightmare." ”

"What kind of nightmare is it?" Xiao Nan supported his slightly tilted head with his hands and posed in a cute posture to listen.

Looking at Xiao Nan's curious eyes, Xie Mao took a sip of the porridge prepared for breakfast before asking, "Don't you think it's boring to listen to others talk about dreams?" ”

"No, it won't."

Xiao Nan has slowly regarded Xie Mao as his friend, and shared the story of the past without guard: "When I used to live with Yahiko and Nagato, we would talk about our dreams before going to bed, Yahiko's dreams were the most fun, Nagato always had nightmares, I ......"

"How are you?" Xie Mao followed Xiao Nan's words and asked.

"I, my dreams are the most boring." Xiao Nan put away his hand and sat up straighter, and smiled a little embarrassedly, "Many times I don't remember what dreams I had, every day in order to survive, I feel so tired, I always close my eyes and open them, and a night passes." ”

"At that time, I thought it was very good, we only needed to close our eyes and open our eyes for a long night, we would grow up quickly, we would make money without stealing other people's things, we would have the strength to fight back when we were beaten, and we could help other homeless children when we became adults......"

Xiao Nan said a little immersively, and then suddenly noticed that Xie Mao had been looking at her seriously, Xiao Nan immediately stretched out his index finger and scratched his cheek with some embarrassment: "Anyway, I don't dream much, and I can't remember dreams, so I don't know what to say, and Nagato is not very happy to talk about nightmares, so it's Yahiko who is talking to us." ”

"So you like to listen to other people's dreams, even if it's nightmares?" After Xie Mao finished speaking, he took another sip of porridge, and motioned for Xiao Nan to hurry up and eat breakfast, making the atmosphere seem more relaxed, like a small talk during a meal rather than a formal conversation.

"Hmm......" Xiao Nan picked up the spoon and took a small sip of porridge, she quickly glanced at Xie Mao and then withdrew her gaze, and asked softly, "Could it be, it sounds strange?" ”

After treating Xie Mao as a friend in his heart, Xiao Nan couldn't help but feel inferior.

She's just a small orphan in the land of rain.,In order to survive, she even often steals food from merchants.,No opinions.,No talent.,And only origami.,It's a hobby that can't be seen in the ninja world.。

Even the person Xie Mao wanted to arrest at the beginning was Yahiko, not her.

And Xie Mao, not only is he a famous genius puppeteer in Shayin Village, an eight-year-old middle ninja, but his family is also a high-level member of the village, and his future is infinitely bright.

So after sharing his past life, Xiao Nan immediately cared about Xie Mao's opinion.

"Strange? Why do you feel that? Xie Mao lost a lot of disguise in front of Xiao Nan, and said with a smile, "Be confident, it's normal for such a thing, since you want to hear it, I'll tell you about it." ”

"I dreamed that I was killed by Jiraiya."

"......" Xiao Nan's expression, which was still a little joyful, suddenly froze, as if it was down.

"When I fought Jiraiya last night, he put a lot of pressure on me, and if I didn't pay attention, I would be killed, and that pressure even entered my dreams and caused me to have nightmares." Xie Mao said calmly, he no longer had palpitations, and he clearly realized that he was still a long way from a real powerhouse.

Before the real battle with Jiraiya, his impression of Jiraiya was still stuck in the words heroic, obsessed with prophecy, and tragic death at the hands of Payne.

The flaws are not hidden, and he has his own shortcomings, but he has more attractive advantages and personality charm, and he is a very popular character.

But after yesterday's battle, Xie Mao remembered that he was also a natural enemy who was hostile to him and would become stronger and stronger in the future.

This person who loves Konoha deeply will not allow others to conquer Konoha, and this person who is obsessed with prophecy will not believe that people who are not children of prophecy can save the world.

Xie Mao can still remember Jiraiya's cold expression and terrifying strength, and he has undisguised killing intent.

There is no doubt that Zilai is also a huge obstacle on the road to Xie Mao's reunification, and it is quite a troublesome guy.

After all, the glass snake is just something that the second generation of Kazekage and Monzaemon made up, and the upper limit is there, and there is no way to help Xie Mao cross the strength gap, and he can only be beaten in the face of Zilai.

"Although my ideals are quite ambitious, I also have to be down-to-earth, although I don't care much about the identity of the ninja village, but other people care a lot, as long as it's not a ninja from the same village, you can only become an enemy when you meet it."

Xie Mao said softly but firmly: "You have to be ready, Xiao Nan, even if I let you go back to the Land of Rain in the future, I and Zilai will still be enemies." ”

He will treat me as an enemy, and I will treat him as an enemy.

Xiao Nan was stunned for a moment, and asked a little at a loss: "If I go back to the Land of Rain, why would Mr. Jiraiya still be your enemy, is it because of hatred?" ”

Xie Mao thought for a while and said simply: "The position of the village, the hatred of each other, and the limitations of the times. ”

"However, if you can bring peace to the world, then why is Jiraiya-sensei, who also yearns for peace, against you?" Xiao Nan asked incomprehensibly.

"Because Jirai also recognizes the one country and one village created by the original Hokage, in his opinion, unification is not a good thing."

In other words, in the eyes of the vast majority of people, it is not a good thing not to be unified in their own village.

This is a perfectly normal thing.

Therefore, reunification will shed blood, and even blood will flow into rivers and bleed.

That's why Xie Mao hopes to find like-minded people to work with, and to bleed less if they can.

Xiao Nan didn't understand what Xie Mao meant, so he could barely understand it, the two chatted first and finished breakfast, Xiao Nan cleaned up the tableware and brushed a few bowls seriously.

Her work at home is not complicated, at least it will not tire her, so Xiao Nan has free time to care about the quality of her housework, whether it is washing dishes or sweeping the floor, she will seriously make it clean.

When Xiao Nan finished his work and walked out of the kitchen, there was no Xie Mao in the hall, and he didn't know whether he went to the backyard or upstairs.

Xiao Nan thought about it and planned to go upstairs to get his medical book and continue reading, but suddenly heard a knock outside the door.

The knock on the door is not urgent, but it is clear and not annoying to listen to.

Xiao Nan hesitated for a moment and walked to the door, and when she was about to open the door, she heard a noise behind her and found that Xie Mao was already standing at the top of the stairs.

Xie Mao looked at Xiao Nan and was no longer worried, she opened her mouth and asked, "Who is it?" ”

"It's me, Garura." A gentle female voice came from outside the door, Xiao Nan was stunned when she heard it, and opened the door with some surprise and saw Ka Ruira in casual clothes with short sand-brown hair.

In the sociable sand ninja, Xiao Nan is afraid of Hakura and Rasha, but he likes to have a gentle personality and also treats her Karuma.

Garura ...... Xie Mao looked at Ka Rura, who was wearing a dark dress and a light green scarf outside the door, and quickly had a guess about her intention.

"Good morning, Xiao Nan." Garu Luo smiled gently, and raised the small bag he was holding in his right hand, "A little greeting." ”

"You're so polite." Xiao Nan was busy bending over, wanting to refuse tactfully.

"Take it, some usual snacks and toys."

Garuna handed out the bag, and Xiao Nan took it with both hands embarrassedly: "Thank you, Senior Garura." ”

"Hehe~" Garuna looked at Xie Mao who was walking behind Garura and smiled, "Meet again, Scorpion." ”

"I was in a coma in the hospital before, and I didn't have time to thank Karuira's seniors for their treatment." Xie Mao walked to Xiao Nan's side and said.

After being seriously injured by Konoha's undercover agent, many medical ninjas worked to treat Xie Mao non-stop, including Karuro, who was half of Chiyo's student.

"That's just what I'm supposed to do."

"But I still have to be grateful, thank you Karuira." Xie Mao said sincerely, and then said to Xiao Nan, "Go and prepare the best tea at home." ”

"Oh! Good. Xiao Nan took the bag and ran back.

"Please come in, Karuro-senpai." Xie Mao stretched out his hand and gestured.

Garura smiled sideways, "That's so polite." ”

Xie Mao waited until Karuro entered the room before closing the door and taking her to sit down in the hall.

The two chatted for a few words, and only after Xiao Nan served tea and sat next to Xie Mao at Xie Mao's signal did Xie Mao ask, "What is the matter with Senior Garuna's visit this time?" ”

Garura took a sip of tea and praised it before smiling, "You seem to have guessed it." ”

Xie Mao bowed his head slightly: "Is it for Xiao Nan?" ”

Xiao Nan, who was listening, was stunned: "Me? ”

"Yes, Chiyo-sama wants me to teach you basic medical knowledge and ninjutsu."

Garura put down the teacup, looked into Xiao Nan's eyes and said, "If you don't mind, I will be your teacher for a while in the future." ”

Xiao Nan blinked and looked at Xie Mao.

"Karura-senpai is a student of grandma." Xie Mao just nodded.

Xiao Nan immediately looked at Garuna and said excitedly, "I am willing." ”

"Haha~" Garura also clapped his hands a little happily, "Then you will be my first student." ”
