Chapter 39: I Bet You Don't Have Bullets in Your Gun!
There are many forms of expression of sadness, and there are many ways to resolve it, some people will be painful at the beginning, and the sadness in their hearts will be resolved through emotional catharsis.
There are also people who wrap their grief in a strong shell, let the grief always be conceived in the shell, and squeeze through the shell after a silent or trivial thing before catharsis.
It is clear that Kushina belongs to the latter, and the tragedy of the Vortex Country has been happening for some time, even if it reaches Konoha Village and let ordinary people know about it, it will be a week.
As the orphan of the Uzumaki clan, from the moment the tragedy happened, the invisible burden was pressed on Kushina, maybe no one asked her to avenge the Uzumaki clan, but she herself couldn't help but think so.
Then, she would set herself goal after goal to move on the path she thought was right, and she didn't want to vent the drive of that hatred until she succeeded.
But her first step, graduating from the ninja school, was directly blocked by Tatsuma and Mizumon, and the frustration of the start made Kushina not know what to do, so she became a person who didn't even know how to choose.
It's like a baby, letting emotions dictate your behavior, such as a cry now.
At this time, any act of blocking and consolation is just pasting unstable adhesive tape on top of Jiu Sinai's cracked shell, it is better to let Jiu Sinai vent directly.
The long crying and the exhaustion of two successive combat tests made Kushina fall asleep, and Sarutobi looked at Kushina, who was obviously asleep, but was still sobbing, hugged her, and said to Orochimaru:
"Orochimaru-sama, I'll send Kushina back first, here..."
"It's okay, I have enough time today."
Orochimaru waved his hand, their team was urgently recalled, Tsunade has been unheard since he returned home, and he was also called by Sarutobi to talk, and Orochimaru, who got a short vacation, didn't mind wasting this time.
However, after Sarutobi left Hepu, Orochimaru still looked at Tatsuma and asked, "You have completed the village's task excellently, do you still want to continue with the second round of testing?" ”
Tatsuma didn't speak, nor did he look at Mizumon, who had just made a promise to Kushina that he wanted to keep going, and Tatsuma needed to think again.
"I will continue to take the test."
And Mizuto didn't expect Tatsuma, nodding, and Orochimaru looked at Tatsuma, expecting his answer.
Tatsuma thought for a while before he raised his head and looked at Orochimaru, and said, "Orochimaru-sama, may I ask a question?" ”
"Of course, Tatsuma-kun."
Orochimaru had already regained his elegant smile, and looking at Tatsuma, he was also curious about what the problem was, which could influence Tatsuma's choice to graduate early.
Tatsuma took a deep breath, and then asked, "Orochimaru-sama, I want to ask, why did you come to assess the two of us today, do you value us?" ”
Hearing this, Orochimaru has already understood what Tatsuma means, this little ghost... I am worried about the resources after graduation, of course, this resource is not a material resource, but an invisible resource such as the mentoring team.
With a chuckle, Orochimaru shook his head and said, "It's because I don't value you, or the village doesn't plan to let you two follow me, so I don't need to avoid suspicion to be your examiner." ”
Tatsuma nodded, and was about to continue asking, but Orochimaru waved his hand directly and said, "I know what you want to ask, don't worry, the village will not let you down."
Of course, I can also reveal a little bit that if you successfully graduate, it is very likely that the leading Shinobi will be my teammate. ”
Orochimaru didn't mind telling the two of them these secrets, as he knew that only the food in the trap was delicious enough to lure the prey into the trap.
For now, let the two of them know how big the future harvest is, so that they can stimulate their potential and participate in the next round of assessment.
In terms of the quality shown by the two of them, it is definitely a certainty to become a shinobi, but Orochimaru doesn't want to end so boringly, he wants to do something.
After learning the information about the possible future leadership of the team Shangnin, Tatsuma and Mizumon glanced at each other, and the motivation in their hearts did increase by another point, Tatsuma also nodded and said:
"Orochimaru-sama, I will continue to participate in the assessment as well."
"Then take a break, and when your teacher comes back, the assessment will begin, so I'll tell you... It's not a small fight. ”
As he spoke, Orochimaru's smile suddenly retracted, and then a cold, violent, and murderous aura came out of him, and his golden eyes seemed to be unfocused, and they seemed to be staring at the two of them.
"Gollum~"
Tatsuma swallowed a mouthful of saliva at the same time as Mizumon, especially Tatsuma, who originally didn't believe much in momentum.
When watching a movie in his previous life, someone said that a certain actor and prisoner acted well, and there was murder in his eyes, but he didn't feel anything.
But at this time, being stared at by Orochimaru, there was a feeling that the perverted murderer was already lying on his shoulder, and the butcher knife was already on his neck.
"And, I'll make a point."
Suddenly, Orochimaru's momentum was retracted, and the corners of his mouth were raised with restrained momentum, and a temperament like a mad bomber was implied in his smile, not pressing, but it could make people feel fearful.
With a smile, Orochimaru said, "If you can't pass my assessment, maybe I'll use some authority to write your report as useless, and let you go back to the ninja school at the same time... Become a waste in the eyes of the ninjas.
With your talents, you should be able to guess what I'm talking about, right? ”
This is still a guess, this is Ming Huanghuang telling them that if they miss this opportunity, don't think about meeting a good leader in the future.
Tatsuma frowned and looked at Orochimaru, who he suspected was bluffing him, just like Morino Hiki later bluffed those candidates who took the Chunin exam.
But Orochimaru doesn't have the slightest emotional flaw, and... This kind of crazy thing, Tatsuma felt that Orochimaru had done it.
While Mizuto was still thinking about it, Tatsuma came back to his senses first and said, "I see, Orochimaru-sama, maybe your assessment will be difficult, but I don't think you will deliberately obstruct our path."
As long as we show enough traits to impress you, you will not be able to judge us as a failure. ”
"Well, I'm confident, you can try."
Orochimaru's smile did not change, and when he saw that Mizumon also regained his emotions, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "However, if I were you, I would hurry up and recover my state." ”
"I understand."
Tatsuma nodded, and then glanced at Mizumon, and both of them began to refine and restore the chakra.
