Chapter 346: "Something in Human Skin"!
"Don't think that if you say that, we'll let you go right away, Lan Gui."
Nara Kano glanced at Nara and didn't appreciate the latter's "praise" at all.
Everyone is a Nara ninja, who doesn't know whose temperament?
Want to drop a sentence casually and slip away to rest?
If it's an ordinary matter, Nara Shikano can still turn a blind eye.
But this is the campaign Hokage!
Can you come out with some energy?
“…… All right. ”
Nara looked stunned, and the expression that seemed solemn just now immediately fell, and he held his chin with one hand and analyzed it boringly.
"It's normal for Big Brother Watergate to be favored by the three generations of Hokage.
"Aside from the merits and prestige that Brother Watergate has gained in the three wars, he also has the support of the three ninjas of Jiraiya behind him, and the holy place of Miaomu Mountain to promote the name of 'Son of Prophecy' for him.
"If I were a third-generation Hokage and wanted to find an entourage in the village to accompany me to the Five Shadows Talks, I would also choose Big Brother Watergate, who is young and handsome, powerful, and extremely prestigious......
"However, accompanying the three generations of Hokage to participate in the Five Shadows Talks, it is not necessarily that Big Brother Watergate will definitely become the next Hokage.
"Aren't the three generations of Mizukage in the next village the most vivid example?"
Recently, the Nara clan has collected a lot of information about the first Five Shadows Talks.
The three people present all knew that the third generation of Mizukage had accompanied the first generation of Mizukage to participate in the Five Shadows talks, but the position of the second-generation Mizukage was taken away by the Ghost Lantern Phantom Moon of the Ghost Lantern Clan.
If you have to analyze the reasons, you can only speculate that during the election of the second generation of Mizukage, the comprehensive strength of the ghost lantern Phantom Moon was better than that of the current third generation of Mizukage.
Isn't this similar to what Konoha is doing today?
Ape Fei Ri Slash prefers Bo Feng Shui Gate, and plans to take the other party to the second Five Shadows Talks.
However, in terms of overall strength performance.
Nara Langui will definitely not lose to Bo Feng Shuimen!
If the position of the fourth Hokage is obtained through a "duel", Nara is confident that he will not lose to any opponent.
Now, he's a little stronger.
After listening to Nara Langui's analysis, the old patriarch father and son both nodded approvingly.
Qualifications for participation in the Five Shadows Talks.
This little thing can't affect the overall situation.
"Except for Big Brother Watergate, what have the others done recently?"
Nara Langui thought about it, but still streamlined the target range.
"Don't talk about those who are obviously running along, has Orochimaru made any recent moves?"
In fact, in Nara Langui's heart, Orochimaru is also destined to run with him.
Not to mention that Nara Langui has a lot of negative information about Orochimaru in his hands.
Just one thing.
The backer behind Orochimaru is Shimura Danzo.
And the backstage of the wave wind and water gate is the ape flying and slashing.
Pure natural pressing.
Even if there is no Nara Langui, Orochimaru is destined to be unable to compete with Bo Feng Shuimen.
But well......
Strategically despise the enemy, tactically value the enemy.
Nara didn't want to drop the chain at such a critical moment.
"No ......"
Nara Shikaku shook his head, his brow furrowed slightly.
"Lan Gui, you may not have noticed this information before, in fact, Orochimaru-sama hasn't appeared in public for a long time.
"Even when he was sitting on the battlefield of the Grass Country, Orochimaru-sama was always in a state of seclusion, and few people were able to see him except for a very few henchmen.
"After returning to the village, Orochimaru-sama basically doesn't go out.
"Orochimaru-sama has only made one public appearance in the last week, and about four days ago, he went to the torture department in the village.
"I asked the ninja who was in charge of the torture department at the time what he thought of Orochimaru-sama...... Very bad. ”
"How?"
Nara raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Could it be that Orochimaru attacked the ninjas of the torture department?"
"That's not true, anyway, everyone is a companion in the village."
Nara Shikaku hurriedly shook his head, he didn't have a good impression of Orochimaru, but the other party was a high-powered Sannin after all.
"It's just according to the ninja of the torture department, Morino Ibiki......
"The Orochimaru-sama he saw didn't look like a human, but like a ...... Something in human skin. ”
"Lu Jiu, are you sure that the person you asked is not mistaken?"
Nara Shikano was slightly stunned and looked at his cub in surprise.
"I've also dealt with Orochimaru many times, and the other party's temperament is a little bit cold and arrogant, and it's really not easy to get along with, but no matter how much it is like what you said.
"Still wearing human skins...... Isn't Orochimaru human? ”
"I just repeated the words of the torture department ninja."
Nara Lujiu spread his hands and looked helpless.
"After all, it's been a long time since I've personally touched Orochimaru-sama......
"But that Senai Biki doesn't look like someone who likes to exaggerate."
Nara Langui listened to the conversation between the old patriarch and the father and son, and also fell into deep thought.
He knows a lot about Orochimaru's life experience.
After failing to run for the fourth generation of Hokage, Orochimaru defected directly to Konoha because of the discovery of human experiments, and then drifted in the ninja world and embarked on the road of completely not being human.
Especially after all kinds of "curse marks" were developed, it was really difficult to define Orochimaru's personal life state.
However, Nara does know a little bit about it.
Orochimaru's "physical state" is indeed complicated.
But his "state of soul" is not necessarily.
No matter how Orochimaru "spits out the snake" and "the snake spits out me", he always has only one soul.
This can be seen from the fact that Uchiha Itachi's ten-fist sword can make Orochimaru completely "banned".
If Nara Shikahisa is just now, there is no problem.
That can only show one thing - something has gone wrong with Orochimaru's soul!
'Could it be that Orochimaru has already embarked on the path of soul study? Have you even started research on the art of immortal reincarnation? I feel like the time is a little wrong......
'If it weren't for the Immortal Reincarnation Technique, what reason could Orochimaru's soul go wrong? ’
'Reincarnation? Yaki's technique? Or...... Curse sigils? ’
Nara Langui's mind flashed one thought after another, but due to the lack of information, he could not draw accurate conclusions at all.
"Anyway, if Lu Jiu just said that there is no problem, then this is good news."
Nara Kano stroked his beard, put aside those difficult questions for the time being, and directly locked on to the crux of the problem.
"It doesn't matter what Orochimaru is like this.
"The important thing is that as a strong contender for the four generations of Hokage, Orochimaru's current state is very wrong, and even ordinary ninjas will be intimidated when they see him.
"Then in this way, Orochimaru is doomed to fail in the voting link of the ninja class!"
According to Nara's introduction, the ninja named Morino Ibiki is just an ordinary middle ninja who has a certain talent in torture.
But even the middle ninja can find the problem of the big snake pill, how can the upper ninja with stronger comprehensive quality not find it?
Even Orochimaru's personal state is not as bad as Nara Shikahisa said.
But the "monster in human skin" claim only needs half the credibility.
It is basically impossible for Orochimaru to successfully run for the fourth generation Hokage......
The three of them continued to talk about the four-generation election for a while, and finalized the general campaign plan before they talked about another major event.
"Lan Gui, what are you going to do with that 'empty area'?"
There must be a reason for Orochimaru to open the research of the art of immortal reincarnation.
But the original manga was not written...... It's very good.
Or rather, it's a bug.
I privately thought that Orochimaru started the research of the art of immortal reincarnation because of something wrong with his body.
It's not about "aging", "mutation" and the like.
[Personal speculation] is because Uchiha Itachi cut off one of Orochimaru's arms, and then caused Orochimaru to start reincarnating.
If I have the opportunity in the future, I might do an analytical post on this issue, for now...... It can only be conjectured
