A large snake pill with a round hole was exposed at the center of the eyebrows, and the whole person turned into a pile of dirt and scattered on the ground.

The next moment.

A new Orochimaru came out of the ground from another place, unscathed.

"That attack method just now, is that the secret technique that Nara-kun used to kill Shimura Shin before?"

Orochimaru licked the corners of his mouth, and the light in the snake's eyes became more and more intense.

The kind of "ultra-long-range projectile attack" that the other party had just cast made Orochimaru subconsciously think of the hydration secret technique of the Ghost Lantern Clan in Fog Hidden Village.

To be exact.

It is based on the hydration secret technique of the Ghost Lantern Clan, and developed a derivative ninjutsu - the technique of water iron cannons!

The difference is.

The Ghost Lantern Clan's water and iron cannon technique can only attack.

And Nara Langui's "pitch-black projectile" has the control effect of shadow mysticism.

Orochimaru has not yet noticed the subtle differences between the [Shadow Piercing Bullet] and the [Shadow Binding Bullet].

But nevertheless.

In his opinion, the comprehensive value of the "Pitch Black Projectile Technique" researched by Nara Langui has surpassed the "Water and Iron Cannon Technique" of the Ghost Lantern Clan!

What a genius mystical ninja!

Orochimaru finally knew why the Nara clan valued Nara so much, and even did not hesitate to fight against the roots for this.

If he were the patriarch of the Nara clan, he would have protected this super genius like this.

In the face of Orochimaru's inquiry, Nara Langui responded very coldly.

"No comment."

戾——

With a shrill eagle chirp, a huge eagle made of ink flew out of the forest.

Its back carries both Nara and Yakushi Nonoyu, flying high into the sky.

'The pseudo-painting of the super beast actually has the effect of flying? ’

Orochimaru looked up at the ink eagle in the sky, and unexpected emotions appeared in his heart again.

'Even the roots don't know that......

In the ninja world, the ability to fly can be described as an out-and-out "high-end ability", which only a very few ninjas have.

Mastering the ability to fly can basically symbolize that the ninja has the absolute initiative in battle.

Whether to fight or retreat is completely in the other party's thoughts.

Nara Langui did have a plan to withdraw his troops at this time.

He knew that the Rip Snake was difficult to kill, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult to kill.

Pierce the heart, explode the head, and use all kinds of "stand-in techniques" to get rid of damage.

In comparison, the old man of Jiaodu, who dies once when he wears his heart, is simply not too sincere......

Yakushi Ye Naiyu manipulated the ink eagle, constantly circling and flying in the sky.

Seeing this scene, Orochimaru also continued to shift his position on the ground, dodging to avoid the shadow of the ink eagle.

What he is afraid of is not the ink eagle, but the Nara Rakei, who is integrated with the shadow of the ink eagle.

When Orochimaru is constantly moving around, it is not only to avoid the shadow of Nara Langui, but also to avoid his unguardable "shadow bullet".

But after dodging for a long time, the opponent did not attack, as if he was just teasing the prey.

Orochimaru also had an angry feeling in his heart.

He stopped his pace and summoned the Kusanagi sword, once again unleashing the same long-range attack that extended the blade and attacked suddenly.

Once again, the silver-white horsework streaked across the sky.

However, Yakushi Ye Naiyu, who had already been on guard, just manipulated the ink eagle to fly, and flapped his wings to avoid the stabbing attack of the Kusanagi sword.

Ninja's ability intelligence is important.

A large part of the reason is that "the same ninjutsu cannot be used twice on the same ninja".

Staring closely at the ink eagle that was constantly circling in the sky.

Orochimaru unhappily withdrew the Kusanagi sword, pinched a seal gesture, and the whole person submerged under the ground, the intention to avoid the battle was very obvious.

"It seems that the other party is not going to continue to fight with us......"

Nara Langui unfolded his [Lacquer Eye] and looked down on the ground below, but he did not find the slightest trace of the flow of spiritual energy.

"In that case, let's go back to the Kikyo Orphanage."

"Hmm!"

Yakushi Nonoyu manipulated the ink eagle and kept reducing its flight altitude until it landed on the ground.

"Repel the legendary three ninjas".

It didn't bring too deep inner feelings to Nara Langui and Yakushi Nonoyu.

Yakushi Nonoyu, who quickly rushed back in the direction of Kikyo City, looked a little worried.

"Lan Gui, do you think the roots will just stop moving?"

"The strength of the two of us is already roughly known, and Shimura Danzo wants to deal with us, unless he is willing to send a Shinobi team.

"The current atmosphere and situation do not allow Shimura to make such a big move."

Nara Langui said comfortingly.

"Although I don't know how Shimura Danzou persuaded Orochimaru, this Sannin should be the 'strongest trump card' that Shimura Danzo can play at the moment.

"Presumably, in the next period of time, the small movements at the root should completely stop."

Nara Langui is appeasing Yakushi Nonoyu on his lips, but in his heart he is thinking about how to deal with Shimura Danzo.

As the saying goes.

Only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a thousand days to prevent thieves?

But the problem is that Shimura Danzou is not an ordinary "little thief", but an insidious and vicious "old thief".

If Nara wants to deal with Shimura Danzo, he must think long-term.

And to deal with Shimura Danzo, you must also take into account the Sarutobi who is standing behind him...... The latter is the real big trouble! ’

Nara's mind was full of thoughts.

"Let's use the [Shadow Transformation Technique] first, and find out the daily activity area of Shimura Danzo'......

Back to the Kikyo Orphanage.

Before waiting for the anxious pharmacist Ye Naiyu, he arranged personnel to track down the whereabouts of Miya Castle Yan.

The thin monk who came in a hurry took the initiative to bring good news - the fat nun, who had just disappeared unexpectedly, took the initiative to return to the orphanage!

Pharmacist Ye Naiyu suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief.

Anyway, just come back.

"Lan Gui, you go and rest for a while, I'll go see the nun."

Yakushi Nonoyu admonished Nara Langui, and hurriedly went to check on the fat nun's condition.

'The fat nun actually came back on her own?' Was it just a coincidence? ’

Nara Langui looked at the back of Yakushi Nonoyu, and his brows furrowed slightly.

'It doesn't always feel that simple......

Back to the small room.

Nara Lang Katsura called out the panel and found the B-rank [Ninja Secret Scroll] he had just obtained.

"I don't know what will be included in Orochimaru's secret scroll...... This Lai Skin Snake is an out-and-out 'Master of Forbidden Arts'! ”

Nara took a thought and opened the scroll.

【Open ......】

[The contents of this B-class ninja secret scroll: Technique]

[B-level Technique: Empty Sword]

[Description: Edgeworth Rides the Wind, Sword Dance of Death]

[Surgical effect: Through the simple use of natural energy filled in the atmosphere, indirectly interfere with and control inorganic substances rich in their own chakra, so that they can fly freely in the air]

[Technique Evaluation: Edgeworthiness]

'Natural energy? Immortal moves!? ’

Looking at the procedure information on the panel, Nara Langui's eyes widened.

'Orochimaru really mastered the immortal arts?? ’

……

The other side.

Orochimaru's figure reappeared in the forest, and he looked up at the sky, and there was nothing left in the sky.

"Did you really leave? The ability to fly is really handy......"

For flying targets, Orochimaru is not without the slightest means of countermeasures.

However, if those methods are really used, it will inevitably cause too much movement, and it is easy to attract the attention of the ninjas in Kikyo City.

This is not in line with Orochimaru's original plan.

Orochimaru's original plan was to test the quality of Nara Langui, try to reduce the conflict with the pig deer butterfly, and by the way, get the corresponding "reward" from Shimura Danzo in the root.

However, the vigilance and comprehensive strength shown by Nara Langui were a little too much beyond Orochimaru's expectations.

"Nara-kun, I'm really getting more and more curious about you......"

Taking out a scroll from the ninja bag, Orochimaru wrote hard for a while, and wrote a lot of messages on it.

When he was done, he shoved his thumb into his mouth, gently biting his fingertips, performing a spiritistic spell and summoning a small snake.

"Go find Tsunade's location and give her this scroll......"

Boom!

The little snake picked up the scroll, and as a cloud of smoke rose, its figure disappeared.

The next moment, Orochimaru also disappeared in place.

After a rush to go.

Orochimaru returns to the village from outside Kikyo Castle and arrives in a dark area, which is the base of the roots.

"You're back?"

Shimura Danzo, who received the report from his subordinates, rushed over as soon as possible, and he looked at Orochimaru, who was empty-handed and alone, and asked in a cold voice.

"How did you come back alone, the mission is complete?"

"I'm not your subordinate, Elder Shimura, don't talk to me in this tone."

Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth gently.

"We're just trading on an equal footing now......"

A cold light flashed in Shimura Danzo's eyes, but he knew the strength and means of the man in front of him, so he still forcibly held back his unhappiness.

"Since it's a transaction, what about the 'goods' you brought?"

"Goods?"

Orochimaru hooked the corners of his mouth.

"What was our deal?

"You pay 'that thing', let me test the quality of Yakushi Nonoyu and Nara Langui.

"If you have the chance, secretly deal with the former and bring the latter back to the roots.

"But unfortunately, the level of strength of the two of them is somewhat beyond my expectations."

There was mockery in Shimura Danzo's voice, "The three ninjas can't solve the big and the small?" ”

"It's your intelligence that's wrong, Elder Shimura."

Orochimaru said coldly.

"It's not just the Nara clan that is involved, it's also Tsunade.

"Before you let me act, you didn't say that Nara Langui was Tsunade's subordinate!"

Shimura Danzou was stunned, "How can it be ......?"

"What is there to hide from such a thing?"

Orochimaru's vertical pupils stared at Shimura Danzou faintly.

"Elder Shimura, shouldn't you settle the 'reward' now?

"Ninja God's Cell!"
