Chapter 165 Parting

"Today is quite rare."

After glancing around and seeing that there were only two people around this time, Uchiha Sasuke and Hinata Neji, the sly monkey said:

"No outsiders."

"What is this nonsense?"

Uchiha Sasuke smiled and responded:

"Senior Xiyan is a bit fierce, but it was you who lost your temper that time."

He thought that the outsider in the other party's mouth was referring to Maoyue Xiyan.

Something felt wrong in my heart.

Unexpectedly, this monkey was so cautious.

It's been so long, and now I'm still looking for an advantage.

"Maoyue Xiyan? What does it have to do with her?"

Afterwards, the group of people, led by Sasuke, walked to a secluded place.

"The rest are all my responsibilities. I just help you if I have to."

"Let's take a step to talk."

"Then you just said 'outsider' is"

Your own village?

What a loud tone.

“This is a perfect opportunity for you to make a contribution and establish your prestige.

"What do you think?"

"Tell me, why did you call me out this time?"

Sasuke continued:

After guessing Sasuke's thoughts, the cunning monkey suddenly became a little angry:

"I said, you think of Monkey Jue too obscenely, don't you?"

"clear."

Sasuke was confused.

"Beauty, I do like it very much. But after seeing it, it will pass. You wouldn't think."

After hearing the question, Sasuke looked around and made up his mind:

While Neji was considering his words, Devious Monkey asked directly.

I'm just curious, why did Sasuke suddenly bother Mr. Monkey Jue to go out while we were having a good chat?

“Chaos is the ladder up.

"Otherwise, even if you successfully become Hokage with Jiraiya's protection, there will still be many problems with the cornerstone of your dominance."

On the other side, Hinata Neji was once again deeply impressed by the posture of this worldly master.

About the fight between Jiraiya and Danzo Shimura;

Hey, these words are too hurtful.

Obviously those tasks are also very important.

Especially when he heard Sasuke say that the war incident during the Chunin Examination might even happen again in the near future, Neji couldn't calm down for a long time.

But Sasuke didn't react much, he just nodded and replied:

"I'm just worried about Master. Besides, I don't want my village to be in such a mess."

The deceitful monkey glanced at Hinata Neji, then looked back at Sasuke, regaining his bored look again.

Regarding the entanglement and overt and covert struggles between the ANBU and the root organization;

Regarding the hidden dangers of collusion between Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru, and the possible chain effects;

Chaos, stairs.

Hinata Neji on the side was thinking about this sentence carefully and almost applauded.

Concerning Sasuke's speculation, the deceitful monkey was a little surprised.

As if he had guessed Sasuke's question in advance, before the other party could finish the question, the sly monkey interrupted:

"To tell you the truth, the only thing I'm really interested in in the work you've given me here is the path to Hokage proposed by this guy.

On the other side, after hearing Sasuke's inquiry, the sly monkey smiled and replied:

The cunning monkey nodded and then fell into silence.

"Before this, Orochimaru invited me to defect to him several times."

The other two people couldn't help being surprised.

"."

“A good thing.

After finishing speaking, Sasuke asked.

Immediately afterwards, Sasuke opened his mouth and told them all the recent events in detail——

"However, I got information from Kimimaro that Orochimaru's real purpose is to seize my body and use it as a container for his eternal life.

"The problem right now is that although I have the intention to go undercover, the risks involved are difficult to assess."

After thinking for a moment, he raised his head and said:

"But it's not completely impossible. All we need is..."

Uchiha Sasuke cursed.

After hearing these secrets, Hyuga Neji was already stunned with shock.

After speaking, everyone fell silent again.

"I have no problem."

Hyuga Neji was the first to express his stance.

"No."

Almost at the same time, Uchiha Sasuke also gave his answer.

"Listen, this is my choice."

Hinata Neji insisted with a determined look on his face.

"For myself, and for the future children of the Hyuga clan to escape the fate of caged birds, I am willing to do anything."

"I think you can think about it again. You don't have to make a decision right away, so there's no rush at this moment."

Uchiha Sasuke advised.

"I've thought it through."

Hyuga Neji shook his head and said decisively.

"For things like this, if you draw your bow, there will be no turning back, Neji."

Sasuke cried out pleadingly and made one last attempt.

Hearing this, Neci suddenly laughed and said proudly:

"For a person like me, I have this fate. How rare is it to have a chance to shoot a bow?

"What's wrong with turning back!"

"Is there any other way?"

Uchiha Sasuke couldn't bear to say any more and turned to ask the deceitful monkey.

"This is the best approach. Especially if, in the long term, you think about the farthest future."

The cunning monkey replied.

"Do you think we should do this?"

Sasuke hesitated for a long time and continued to ask the sly monkey.

"That's the only thing I can't help you with."

This time, the cunning monkey answered very simply.

In the world, there is no such thing as a counselor’s final decision.

The biggest difference between the lord and the strategist is reflected in this final choice.

Hearing the other party's reply, Uchiha Sasuke once again fell into a long silence.

“Making judgments and decisions is never the product of wisdom.

"Rather, it is the product of magnanimity."

Looking at the young man's youthful face, Sly Houju couldn't help but speak.

"I understand, then do it!"

Uchiha Sasuke took a deep look at Hinata Neji and made his final decision.
-

Outside Konoha Village, the ruins of the Uzumaki clan, Namendo.

The moonlight was cold and cold, and the ancestral hall was in dilapidated condition.

"Squeak-"

"Squeak-"

Under the erosion of time, the originally smooth and tough wooden floor has become collapsed and brittle.

At this moment, the floor, which had not seen a living creature for a long time, creaked under the feet, making a tooth-aching sound.

Under the moonlight, Orochimaru and Kabuto Yakushi appeared at the entrance of the ancestral hall, casting two long shadows on the floor.

The air was filled with the smell of dust and rotting wood.

"Cough, cough! The environment here is really bad."

Kabuto Yakushi waved his hand in front of his nose and said respectfully:

"Lord Orochimaru, you don't have to go there yourself."

"If you were more useful, I really wouldn't have to come here."

Orochimaru responded hoarsely.

"!"

Medicine Master Kabuto's heart trembled, he was angry and frightened.

"I'm just kidding. After all, it's all the trouble caused by that bastard Sarutobi."

Orochimaru smiled sadly, raised his feet and walked into the noodle hall first.

The room was not too big, and soon the two of them stopped in front of a wall.

There is still a fence in front of the wall, which seems to be protecting something important.

Compared to other structures in the building, this wall is obviously too well preserved.

Both the walls themselves and the roof over the walls looked as if they had been cleaned all year round.

Problems that can be seen everywhere in the house, such as wall peeling, roof collapse, wood decay, moisture return in the house, etc., have not appeared on this wall or the surrounding area.

It seems that there is a kind of divine power in the dark, protecting this seemingly ordinary place. "昘——"

With a burst of sound, a torch was lit by Yakushi Kabuto and raised high.

As the torch was raised, everything in the house was illuminated clearly by the flickering fire.

Although, I had already expected the scene in front of me.

But after truly seeing the scene in front of them, Yakushi Kabuto and Orochimaru could not help but breathe quickly.

On the wall in front of him, there were densely arranged ghost-like Prajna masks.

There are two long horns on the top of the heads of those masks.

The ears are pointed upward, and the face is ferocious and terrifying.

The cheekbones were high and the sharp teeth were shining coldly.

He has a high forehead and a feature called "mud eyes."

The expressions of each Prajna mask are also different, each one may be happy or sad, angry or fearful.

Taking a closer look, there are three rows, each with nine masks, for a total of thirty-nine, twenty-seven.

"Sure enough, the document found in the Moon Kingdom is true."

Orochimaru's voice was hoarse, and under the light of the fire, his face flickered.

There was uncontrollable joy in his voice.

"Do you want to take it away now?"

Kabuto Yakushi asked cautiously.

"The night is long and the dreams are many."

As Orochimaru spoke, he released a long, slippery snake from his cuffs and swept towards one of the masks.

The snake's body was gently gathered together to wrap up the mask, and then it retracted obediently, finally receiving the mask into Orochimaru's hand.

"It would be great if I could get this mask before Huanyouwan."

Orochimaru sighed with regret as he turned to leave.

Kabuto Yakushi didn't dare to answer, he just felt that Lord Orochimaru was beating him again.

Ever since, I saw Shizune performing the "Healing and Regeneration Technique" on Orochimaru with my own eyes and made progress.

Kabuto Yakushi was greatly inspired by Orochimaru's treatment of both arms.

On the basis of the other party's treatment, new attempts continue.

Trying to increase the cell activity in Orochimaru's arms from 20%.

At first, the treatment went extremely smoothly and everyone was excited.

However, when the cell activity reaches 40%.

With every inch he moved up, Yakushi Kabuto realized more and more clearly that the potential risks were getting higher and higher.

It felt like a warning from God.

The activity of the cells increased, as if they had suddenly received some terrible threat.

The originally smooth treatment process became completely dysfunctional at that moment, even causing a strong backlash to Orochimaru's body.

"soul."

After reviewing a large amount of information, Yakushi Kabuto and Orochimaru came to a common conclusion.

Then he decided to send four sound ninjas to Konoha Hidden Village, trying to seduce Uchiha Sasuke to surrender.

And then plunder the opponent's body.

However, after much inquiring, we found out that Uchiha Sasuke was heading to the Kingdom of Water with Nara Shikaku and others at that time.

Later, when Orochimaru sent people to the Kingdom of Water to arrest him, Sasuke was nowhere to be seen.

The long wait and painful torture forced Orochimaru to settle for the next best thing.

Among his many prisoners, Huan Youwan was chosen.

However.

"Let's go!"

Orochimaru's urging interrupted Yakushi Kabuto's memories.

He gathered the cloak on his head and followed quickly.

This ancient building is like a corpse of history, and it has no meaning for the coming and going of the two of them.

The pharmacist walked out of this old place and rushed towards the cold moon.
-

Konoha, home of the Hokage.

"Eh? If I remember correctly, the lecherous immortal should be the one cooking today!"

When Uzumaki Naruto returned from the backyard training ground, he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Uchiha Sasuke busy in the kitchen.

"Wow! Tonkatsu!"

Seeing the dishes that had been prepared aside, Naruto couldn't help but move his index fingers and reached out to take a piece to taste.

"Snapped!"

Sasuke hit the back of his hand with his chopsticks.

"Waiting for Master."

Sasuke said in a calm voice.

"hiss--"

Naruto immediately grimaced in pain and kept complaining:

"Since when have there been so many rules?"

As he spoke, he continued to glance at Sasuke's kitchen countertop.

"Miso soup, miso tofu, vegetable tempura, fried angler fish, is this roasted pork with ginger sauce?

“Oh my god, is today an anniversary?!

"How long have you been doing this? Are you planning to steal Deacon Saito's job?"

Naruto noticed that today they were all his and Jiraiya's favorite foods, and couldn't help but scream.

Since returning from the river, Uchiha Sasuke has been busy in the kitchen.

At this time, Sasuke was uncharacteristically not arguing with him anymore, but just smiled softly.

During dinner, Jiraiya also didn't talk much.

On the other hand, Uzumaki Naruto ate alone, his mouth full of oil, and he devoured the food.

“Speaking of which, I can cut leaves now.

"Although the current number of times is still very small, I feel that the results of this practice can be stabilized in these two days."

Naruto picked up a piece of pork chop and ate it with rice.

"Aren't there any unsolvable tasks recently? It's a waste of talent for an elite like me to practice in the village for so long! Isn't that right, a lustful immortal?"

Naruto slurred as he drank the soup.

"Speaking of which, is there another Chunin exam in the first half of the year? Oh, I can't wait to show off my skills.

"Some people are already jounin, but I am still a genin. This is simply ridiculous!!"

Naruto picked up a piece of tempura and ate it with a crunch.

"I feel it's still a bit tired. You need to increase the heat next time before adding it to the pot."

Naruto commented with narrowed eyes.

"Shut up, you're making so much noise!"

Uchiha Sasuke finally couldn't bear it anymore and interrupted Naruto's chatter.

Uzumaki Naruto was stunned for a moment, then started laughing.

"Speaking of which, the wedding of Zhiyin and Gangzitie is scheduled for tomorrow. This is an invitation for you two."

On the side, Jiraiya, who had been silent all this time, took out a pink invitation card from his arms.

Pushed in front of Sasuke and the other two.

Uchiha Sasuke was stunned at first, then took the invitation and read it carefully.

"Wow, it turns out Sister Shizune's last name is 'Kato'! I've never heard anyone call her her before."

Beside, Naruto screamed again.

"Keep your voice down, it's annoying when I hear this last name."

Jiraiya said angrily.

"Hey you two, it's been a weird day today."

Naruto was not angry, but looked at his master and senior brother carefully.

"I'm done eating."

At this time, Uchiha Sasuke felt a mixture of emotions in his heart.

Facing Naruto's innocent gaze, it felt like he couldn't stay any longer.

So he stood up to say goodbye, pushed away the stool, and turned back to his bedroom.

"Very suspicious. This guy is always suspicious."

Naruto squinted his eyes, rubbed his chin with his fingers, and started another detective imitation show.

"Eat quickly, you!"

Jiraiya on the side couldn't stand it and couldn't help but hit Naruto on the head with the back of his chopsticks.

People who really want to leave often do so quietly.

This kind of thing is for those guys who are left where they are.

I don’t know if it’s unfair or not.
