Naruto: The Template System

Chapter 18: Death Forest

Orochimaru was in a bad mood recently.

He has been looking for a way towards eternal life and for that he even worked together with Danzo.

Danzo supported him fully since that mad old man wanted to get the power of Uchiha and he also needed equipment's for his research which Danzo provided him making his research easy.

He took uncountable lives for his experiments but Orochimaru didn't regret it since those he killed were weak and to him weak has no rights.

Orochimaru who had seen deaths of his comrades and his parents, believed that only eternal life could give him enough time to unravel the secrets of Ninja World.

Just recently he had a breakthrough in his research as he found a way to live forever.

The way was "Soul Transfer" and all Orochimaru needed to do know was to experiment and perfect this Jutsu that he worked so hard to make a prototype.

But a few days ago Sarutobi-Sensei notified him that he would be the Proctor in the 2nd exam.

Orochimaru wasn't interested in kids fight since all he wanted to do was complete his experiments.

But as Konoha Jonin, he had to do what he was ordered and this feeling of being bound didn't make him feel any good.

Orochimaru knew someday his experiments would be discovered eventually and that day he had to leave that village he had fought for so long.

"I wonder what you'll do that day Sensei" Orochimaru gave a creepy laugh thinking of whether Sarutobi would kill him or not.

As Orochimaru was about to announce the rules for the second exam, he sensed a gaze at him.

This wasn't the first time since someone looked at him as he knew many admired him in the village.

But no one could look at him for much longer because of the cold aura he radiated.

Orochimaru looked towards it's direction and saw a kid around 9 or 10 years' black hair curled up with black eyes wearing a purple samurai rob with a sword hanging at his waist.

Seeing his get up, Orochimaru was surprised since he looked more like a Samurai then a Ninja and noticing his headband he knew this Kid was from Konoha.

Orochimaru released his momentum slightly as a cold and ruthless aura pressured on Kozuki body.

"What"! Orochimaru was surprised as he saw the kid not fazed by his aura at all looking back at him with a smile.

"He-He, seems this exam isn't that bad after all" Orochimaru gave a weird laugh as he looked away and started explaining the rules.

"Good perception" commented Kozuki as he saw Orochimaru looking at him but he wasn't affected by his aura, as he who was a King himself would not be scared by other's momentum.

Soon, Orochimaru announced the rules which were the same as those in the Chunin exam which occurred years later.

Putting the heaven Scroll in his system space, Kozuki looked towards the eager Kurenai and Shizune and said

"You two stay with me all the time, don't you dare mess around, there are some people here you can't afford"

Kozuki has sensed the area with his Observation Haki and he naturally found Kisame and Terumi he wasn't afraid of them.

But Shizune and Kurenai weren't there opponents at all so he didn't want to get them hurt.

"Don't look down on us, we are not same as when we graduated we have performed so many missions" said Kurenai angrily thinking Kozuki looked down on them.

"Yes! Kozuki we can easily protect ourselves" Shizune was also a bit angry thinking he still treated her as a child and did not trust their strength.

Looking at the two little girls, Kozuki was stunned but then he thought "maybe I'm really worried too much I need to believe in them"

Thinking of this Kozuki smiled at the two and said

"Sorry...maybe I was worried a bit too much you can fight but if it's a dangerous opponent you have to listen to me" apologized Kozuki but he still had to remind them this much.

"Humph! it's good you know it" both of them turned their head away proudly but they had a faint smile at there face.

"He finally acknowledged us" both of them had the same thought since during these 6 months they would always feel that they are a burden to Kozuki.

They trained very hard, though Kozuki would praise them but they could always sense that Kozuki still treated them as someone to be protected.

But today Kozuki finally acknowledged them making them very happy.

"You have 5 days to reach the tower now Enter" said Orochimaru as he announced the start of second exam.

Kozuki and other's moved forward disappearing in the dark forest.
