Chapter 170 Explore the hidden world

On the other side, according to the treatment plan that Tsunade had formulated early, Kimimaro's surgery was finally carried out as scheduled.

Thanks to both the patient and the doctor, both sides were well prepared before the operation.

The result of this operation can be said to be very successful.

Konoha Hidden Village, Konoha Hospital, in the ward.

Uchiha Sasuke sat in front of Kimimaro's hospital bed, peeling an apple.

In my heart, I just felt like it was a lifetime ago.

The last time I peeled an apple and ate it in this place, the person lying on the bed was another good friend of mine, Hinata Neji.

What's even more interesting is that the reason why Neji was lying there last time was precisely because he was injured by Kimimaro in front of him.

Speaking of which, I wonder how Neji is doing now.

"You have something on your mind?"

"Actually, I've been hesitant to tell you about this.

Uchiha Sasuke didn't quite understand what Kimimaro was talking about, he was just worried that his plan would be easily noticed by too many people.

After a pause, Sasuke continued:

"Did he go to Orochimaru?"

Sasuke nodded and joked:

"You are like this, and you can still find out this information."

Kimimaro was half leaning on the head of the bed, looking straight ahead, and asked calmly:

"What's your plan?"

Orochimaru's "Konoha Collapse Plan" is at the forefront, and he has a reputation for recruiting talents.

After a pause, he placed the half-cut apple on the table aside, turned to Kimimaro and asked:

Kimimaro asked calmly.

"nothing."

Kimimaro said a little too many words, and then he started coughing.

Then he went to the door and window to check, and after confirming that there were no suspicious signs, he returned to the bed again and said in a low voice:

"How did you see it? Is it obvious?"

"I heard that Hyuga Neji left the village."

Kimimaro replied.

"OK then."

Uchiha Sasuke shook his head and handed the peeled apple to the other party.

"How did you know?"

Kimimaro continued.

Kimimaro lowered his head to drink water and answered briefly.

Hearing this, Uchiha Sasuke stopped peeling the apple.

This was also his first reaction after listening.

Seeing Sasuke's worried look, Kimimaro asked directly.

Then, he picked up another one and started peeling it for himself.

He lowered his voice and asked, "What's the plan?"

Uchiha Sasuke nodded and told everything that happened in the past, as well as the plans between himself and Neji.

Upon seeing this, Sasuke immediately stood up to get a glass of water and handed the glass to Kimimaro.

Uchiha Sasuke was shocked and quickly looked around at the situation.

"Ah, that's right."

"We are friends, so we don't need to see each other outside."

"You know the situation on Orochimaru's side best. However, these days are the critical moments for your surgery, so I still want to wait until you recover better."

"That's what everyone says."

"He won't leave rashly. This matter has something to do with you. What's your plan?"

If, according to the plan, Sasuke also left Konoha.

Therefore, this version naturally became the most widely circulated among the ninjas in the village.

"!"

After listening, Kimimaro fell into silence for a long time.

Nowadays, the news about Ningci's defection has spread all over the city.

Kimimaru paused and said slowly:

"The way he looks at you is different from ordinary people. I have seen that kind of look in Jugo's eyes before. I also kept that look when facing Orochimaru."

For both emotional and logical reasons, he wanted to go with Sasuke.

"Yes."

"I can see it. All his hopes are pinned on you, and he will not leave you and act alone rashly."

Then, the only reason for him to continue to stay here is to repay his gratitude to Tsunade and other doctors.

As for the fun, there is no fun at all.

However, to be honest, everything about Otogakure Ninja Village.

In his heart, he didn't want to see Orochimaru or the other people related to this person at all.

Sasuke was completely unaware of Kimimaro's inner thoughts.

My friend was recovering from a serious illness, so he was not included in his original plan.

Moreover, according to Tsunade-sama's plan, Kimimaro may need to be raised for two more seasons before he can truly return to normal.

However, in terms of intelligence, Sasuke did still have a lot he wanted to collect.

After all, netizens on the forum can only ask questions such as "what to do" and other suggestions.

Regarding intelligence issues such as "what is it?" we can only passively wait for netizens to reveal the information on their own.

Moreover, the contents of the revelations were too advanced and difficult to understand, and I didn't dare to continue to ask questions. It was just a matter of luck.

"To tell you the truth, I actually have a lot of questions I want to ask you. I even made a list."

I saw Uchiha Sasuke pointing at his head, accurately recalling a series of questions previously listed in his memory, and asked them one by one.

"About Yakushi Kabuto, how much do you know about this person's background?"

Sasuke asked.

"His words should be the second-largest person in the entire Otogakure Ninja Village. He has won the trust of Orochimaru. I heard people say that he should have been a ninja in Konoha before, but few people seemed to mention his background. "

Kimimaro explained in detail while recalling.

"Overall, he is a very typical medical ninja. Therefore, he can play a good assistant role in many of Orochimaru's experiments. It is precisely because of this that the relationship between him and Orochimaru is , and the closest."

"."

Ten minutes later, Kimimaro finally finished telling the relevant news.

Immediately afterwards, Uchiha Sasuke's next question continued.

"Understood. So, what you said before, the five sound ninjas. Apart from you, how much information do you know about the other four people? Let me say it again, the more detailed the better."

"They...ahem, ahem."

Kimimaro felt his throat was dry and itchy. He drank water again and continued:

"Among Orochimaru's many subordinates, the only ones who have both strength and loyalty are the four of them, except for me before.

"Like me, they can also skillfully use the power of the curse seal.

"These four people are Kidomaru from the east gate, Sakon from the west gate, Jirobo from the south gate, and Tayuya from the north gate. In terms of their respective abilities."

"."

After nearly half an hour, Kimimaro finally finished telling all the information he knew.

At this moment, he only felt that his mouth was dry and his body felt very weak.

"clear."

Uchiha Sasuke nodded solemnly and continued to ask: "So, what are the geographical conditions and defense situation of Otogakure Ninja Village?"

"Well, Sasuke, you said so much at once, can you remember it?

"Do you need to write it down first, or take a moment to memorize it and digest it?"

Kimimaro complained in his heart and reminded him tactfully.

"Don't worry! I will remember it!"

Sasuke gave a big smile.

Why does this guy look more and more like that Huang Mao?

Kimimaro frowned and looked at Sasuke, only feeling that his appearance overlapped with that of another Konoha ninja.

"Also, you seem to have said before that Orochimaru seems to have several strongholds distributed. Where are they, what are their functions, and what are their characteristics?"

Uchiha Sasuke asked urgently again.

"Well, let's start with the geographical situation at the beginning."

Kimimaro took a deep breath and prepared to risk his life to accompany Junzi.

"Um, am I too anxious? Sorry, in your current situation, you still can't say too many words at once."

After realizing Kimimaro's fatigue, Sasuke quickly stopped the other person's story.

"How about, let's rest for a while. When you feel better, I will continue to ask you."

In the past, Sasuke would not be as rude as before.

But right now, news may come from Neji's side at any time.

There is indeed not much time left for Uchiha Sasuke.
-

In the country of Tian, ​​Yinyin Ninja Village.

"Punch you!"

"No."

"Still in the same position just now, you can just come here for a while!"

"It's really unnecessary."

"Don't control it! Come on!"

"Didn't we agree? We'll talk to Orochimaru first."

The above-mentioned conversations like this were played in a loop between Hyuga Neji and Kidomaru while they were on their way.

Hinata Neji was a little sleepy.

Before that, he had been on the road for a day and a night, during which he even had a fight with the madman in front of him.

Originally, he wanted to find a place to have a good sleep first, but the situation pushed him to keep moving forward.

Now that it's here, let's make peace with it.

Neji silently comforted himself.

Good morning, see you soon.

Otherwise, if I meet some strange guy again, I'm afraid there will be complications. Right now, he was following Kidomaru into the base of the Otogakure Ninja Village.

Before that, Neji finally got Kidomaru's consent on the condition of "giving him a soft punch".

He agreed to act as his "middle introducer", recommended his surrender to Orochimaru, and personally brought him to the Otogakure Ninja Village.

Along the way, they did not encounter many obstacles.

Several Otogakure ninjas saw unfamiliar faces and took a moment to check them.

But under the leadership of Kidomaru, they were all quickly given the green light.

In the long dark tunnel, a torch will appear on the top of the wall from a long distance away.

Neji wanted to use his Byakugan to investigate, but after careful consideration, he decided to wait.

"You wait here for me."

Kidomaru stopped and turned around to explain.

After walking in the tunnel for an unknown amount of time, the two finally came to a door.

From the door, it looks no different from the rooms we encountered before.

Neji stood there honestly, but he couldn't help but feel uneasy in his heart.

Before this, his contact with Orochimaru was almost zero.

During the Chunin Exams, although that person made such a big fuss, he never saw him from the beginning to the end.

That time in Tanshu Castle, he and Orochimaru had met.

But at that time, the battles between the two sides had their own priorities, and there was almost no intersection between them.

"My lord asks you to come in."

After a while, Kidomaru came out to report again.

After a pause, he lowered his voice and revealed:

"He seems very interested in your arrival."

But at this time, Neji couldn't hear it anymore.

He quickly calmed down, took a deep breath, and strode in.

As soon as he entered the room, Neji felt that his eyes suddenly opened up.

Compared to the narrow and long tunnel outside the door, the interior where Orochimaru is located is very spacious.

There were almost no facilities in the house, only a few seats under Orochimaru.

Compared to the tunnel, the floor height here is extremely high, and when you look up, you can barely see the dome.

Although, the light here is also very average.

But thanks to the open space, Neji felt that the previous depression was gone.

"Come closer."

Orochimaru's hoarse voice sounded.

Instantly, Neji's sense of depression returned.

He breathed slowly, feeling his heart beating very fast now.

Looking up, Orochimaru was staring down at him, and next to him was Kabuto Yakushi, who was standing indifferently.

"Is everything Kidomaru said true?"

Orochimaru asked.

"Yes, I want your power."

Hyuga Neji bravely replied loudly.

"whispering sound."

Hearing these words with his own ears, Kabuto Yakushi couldn't help but sneer at the side.

I thought to myself, when I was undercover, you might not be able to walk yet.

Hiss

"Half a year ago, you were fighting desperately for Konoha, but half a year later, you came and said you wanted my power."

Orochimaru did not laugh. He just looked at Neji calmly and said softly:

"Tell me, what brings you here?"

Hiss hiss.

“I am a disciple of the branch of the Hyuga clan.

“As a former Sannin of Konoha, Lord Orochimaru must be very familiar with our situation.

“Today, the relationship between me and the Zong family is getting worse and worse.

"I don't want to endure it anymore. Those people who are obviously much stupider than me can step on my head forever just because of their birth!

"I want to escape the fate of a caged bird!"

Neji resolutely pulled off the bandage on his head, revealing the cyan cross marks on his forehead.

"Okay, very good. The Hyuga clan has hundreds of children. There are not many promising children like you."

Orochimaru nodded with satisfaction, seeming to appreciate Neji's determination.

Hiss hiss.

From the beginning, Neji vaguely heard something.

At this time, I just felt that the sound was getting louder and louder.

Looking down, he saw a giant python with black and brown patterns crawling to his feet.

At this moment, the python was spitting out nectar and crawling up Neji's trouser legs.

"But, why should I help you?

"What can you do for me?"

Orochimaru looked at the child in front of him who came to the door playfully.

At this time, the venomous snake had wrapped itself around Ningji's body, hissing and spitting the letter into Ningji's neck.

Neji only felt that the skin all over his body was shrinking.

The cold and wet touch that kept coming from his body only made his whole body covered with goosebumps.

Neji tried his best to resist the urge to escape and replied loudly:

"Sasuke Uchiha.

"I can help and dedicate Uchiha Sasuke to you!"

"!"

"!"

Hearing this, Orochimaru's expression was startled.

Even Yakushi Kabuto, who had been watching with a cold eye, showed concern and surprise for the first time.

Originally, Orochimaru was just in an interesting mood to see what the intentions of this boy from the Hyuga clan were.

After all, this was really the first time for a Konoha ninja to come to his door.

The question just now was actually just a tease.

Among Orochimaru's expectations, at most, he would hear words such as begging for mercy, feeling sorry for himself, or expressing loyalty.

Unexpectedly, the other party actually directly said that he had always been thinking about the best container.

Even Orochimaru, who has a first-class psychological quality, felt very surprised at this moment.

The python on Neji's body seemed to be sensing something at this moment, and stopped all its movements, quietly waiting for Orochimaru's further instructions.

Neji stopped talking and stood straight in front of the other party, looking at the python on his body as if it was nothing.

He just stared straight at Orochimaru's golden, vertical pupils.

The confrontation lasted for a long time.

With a slight hook of Orochimaru's fingers, the python obediently slipped off Neji's body and disappeared into the darkness beside him.

Hyuga Neji lightly dusted his clothes, raised his head and said loudly:

"Right now, Uchiha Sasuke is still in the Hidden Leaf Village.

"Of course I came here for my own purpose. But at the same time, I also serve as Sasuke's advance messenger."

"What do you mean?"

Kabuto, the pharmacist on the side, opened his mouth to ask for the first time.

"It means that I can represent Sasuke."

Neji replied:

"The purpose of my coming here has just been explained."

"As for my good friend, Uchiha Sasuke. His hatred for genocide can all be blamed on the Hidden Leaf Village itself."

"Uchiha Blood Moon Night was all made by his brother, Uchiha Itachi."

Kabuto Yakushi shook his head and responded:

"Everyone in the ninja world knows the story of a twelve-year-old genius boy who massacred his entire clan."

"That's what Konoha wants people to think! Now, Sasuke knows the real truth."

Hyuga Neji retorted loudly:

"The reason why the Uchiha clan suffered such a misfortune is because under the constant driving of Shimura Danzo and with the tacit approval of Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Uchiha clan failed in the internal fighting in the village, which resulted in cruel results!

"As for Uchiha Itachi, it's just the sword that was used in the end."

These words were taught to me by Uchiha Sasuke and the deceitful Monkey Jue.

If the other party continued to ask more questions, Neji wouldn't be able to explain the reason.

Fortunately, Orochimaru didn't seem to have much doubt about this answer.

"Since Uchiha Sasuke knows that the target of his revenge should be Konoha itself. Then, why is he still staying there and not coming out with you?"

Orochimaru asked in a hoarse voice.

Orochimaru has always been well aware of Shimura Danzo's character and the messy affairs among Konoha's top brass.

Regarding the so-called truth that Neji just said, although he had never heard it before.

But for this version, Orochimaru would not be surprised at all.

"To tell you the truth, my coming this time is also the intention of Uchiha Sasuke. He told me that the relationship with Orochimaru is just a transaction."

Hyuga Neji answered frankly:

"Before he comes, he hopes that I can help him clarify the contents of the transaction with you.

"This is the true meaning of what I said before, that I am the advance messenger sent by Uchiha Sasuke."

"Haha, what a 'clear deal'."

Orochimaru laughed sadly.

He stared at Hinata Neji, as if he wanted to see through Neji and see the boy behind him.

Uchiha Sasuke, that young man's cold face once again flashed through Orochimaru's mind.

Carrying great hatred, but still being able to keep calm and continue to stay in Konoha as if nothing has happened is forbearance;

Faced with his repeated invitations and the temptation of power, it is wise to still clearly define the relationship between them as a transaction;

Before taking action, he even bewitched another scapegoat—speaking of which, it was a well-known scapegoat brand in the Hidden Leaf Village and a member of the Hyuga branch—to help him get enough chips. This was prudent;

That child has such a delicate mind.

Orochimaru licked his long tongue, and the greed in his heart became stronger and stronger.
