To put it all together, even if we only calculate the cost, it would cost 100 million taels per month, which is comparable to an S-level mission.

And if Neji's body wasn't adapted to natural energy to a certain extent, it would have taken at least three years of continuous use to achieve complete perfection.

This is comparable to the price of Asuma, who has the strength of an elite Jonin and is the son of the Third Hokage!

Besides the extremely rich Uchiha, who could afford such a high price?

Of course, Xia Yan and Yakushi Kabuto are also optimizing the formula, hoping to reduce costs, increase production capacity, and spread 'Fuxing No. [-]' to Xia Yan's entire harem as quickly as possible!

Xia Yan is full of fighting spirit.

"My wife and concubine can become stronger!"

......

Xia Yan's "Wives and Concubines Enhancement Plan" is still working hard.

During this time, Konoha actively contacted other ninja villages.

The Third Hokage's estimate was correct, except for the Suna Ninja Village, which was already an ally (vassal), and the Kiri Ninja Village, which had just signed an agreement and felt that it should proactively change its closed image.

Both the Cloud Ninja Village and the Iwa Ninja Village expressed their refusal to participate in Konoha's Chunin Examination.

However, the Third Hokage did not think that they would participate. Anyway, as long as Konoha's genin crushed the fog ninja and sand ninja, it would be enough to show the power of Konoha and serve as a deterrent.

——Anyway, during Konoha's chuunin exams, Iwa ninja and Kumo ninja will also take the initiative to collect information, so there is no need to worry at all.

In the end, the contestants for the Chuunin Examination were Konoha and Konoha's allies Suna Ninja, as well as the Mist Ninja Village who did not strive to win but focused on participating, and a number of small Ninja Villages.

However, the Third Hokage did not know that when he focused his energy on the outside world, Konoha itself was also in turmoil.

In a dark forest in Konoha Village.

"Orochimaru, why did you call me here?"

Shimura Danzo still looked like he was covered in bandages. He used his crutch and knocked on the root of the tree at his feet.

"Hehehe, long time no see, you are still the same..." Orochimaru's unique hoarse voice sounded.

He slowly walked out of the shadows, with a cold smile on his lips: "We are old acquaintances after all, why don't you and I catch up on old times?"

"Orochimaru, I have no interest in chatting with you here." Danzo said in a cold voice: "You and I are not that close... Don't tell me that someone like you would actually do such a thing! "

"Tell me your original intention!"

"It's so indifferent." Orochimaru didn't take it seriously. He lowered his eyes slightly and said directly: "I want to kill the Third Hokage."

Danzo's eyelids moved slightly, but he remained calm.

"The Sound Ninja Village in my hand has also participated in this Chunin Exam." Orochimaru said with a smile: "We have also united with the Sand Ninja Village. I think there will be no problem in killing the Third Hokage in a surprise attack."

"Of course, this also requires someone to cooperate with me... I need you to release water in key places so that my men and I can get close to the Third Hokage smoothly."

"After all, you know it too."

He showed a smile: "I don't trust you either. With few subordinates, I really don't dare to go so deep into Konoha."

"How about it, do you want to consider cooperating?"

Danzo snorted coldly: "I am Konoha's darkness. I will not let go of anyone who harms Konoha!"

"Orochimaru, if you dare to harm Konoha, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

But he didn’t say a word about whether he would cooperate with Orochimaru!

Or......

I will not let go of those who harm Konoha...

So if it doesn't harm Konoha and just targets the Third Hokage, can it be let go?

Although he did not receive an accurate reply, Orochimaru knew that the two had reached a cooperation.

?0Please give me flowers, sticks, sand sticks, sticks, sticks?

It's just that he's not satisfied yet.

Orochimaru smiled and said, "Don't say that, aren't you and I close partners?"

"I think there are a lot of things we can communicate between you and me...such as -"

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes were full of smiles.

"I remember that you and your roots seemed to have been attacked many times for no reason. Aren't you curious about who could do this?"

"You know?" Danzo's old eyes widened instantly, with a solemn look in his eyes.

Nothing has been found out about the incident where he bombed the Shimura clan.

The roots were attacked, countless precious samples and precious instruments were stolen, and many of the thieves were exposed to the ninja clan. There is still no news at all!

This is simply a shame for the roots, which are essentially ANBU and focus on intelligence!

However, even if Danzo tried his best, he could not wash away this shame!

 …  

"Do you know who that person is? The difficulty is that you-" Danzo suddenly became solemn, and then shook his head.

"No, you can't do such a thing. I investigated afterwards and found that all the members were destroyed by the enemy's powerful illusions. They can't even search their memories. You obviously don't have this illusion ability..."

His words are true.

Because the person in Konoha who knows Orochimaru’s situation best is probably him who has made many transactions with Orochimaru!

"Although there is no evidence, it should not be wrong." Orochimaru smiled softly, a solemn look flashed in his eyes.

He also has no proof.

But sometimes, you really don’t need evidence!

He has a grudge against the roots, has extraordinary strength, and is good at illusions...

"Elder Danzo, you have to know that there are not that many masters in this world, and others have no motivation to act..."

"I know a person who is very powerful, and is fully capable and motivated to target the root cause. He is -"

Orochimaru was about to say the man's name.

But the next second he suddenly stopped talking.

Instead, his pupils shrank, his body stiffened, and there was a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

If you look carefully at his eyes, you can see a young man with a gentle smile in his pupils, sitting calmly on the branch above Danzo.

The young man was smiling, resting the elbow of one hand on his thigh and supporting his face with the palm of his hand. He was looking at Orochimaru and Danzo below with great interest.

"Hey, who are you talking about?" Danzo frowned and said dissatisfied: "Or do you want to whet my appetite?"

"If you really know who that person is, your partner can accept it, and other cooperation can also be considered."

"Can you speak now?"

But Orochimaru was sweating coldly and his pupils shrank suddenly.

Danzo actually knew nothing about the young man in his head?

Is it illusion?

"Xia Yan, you have become stronger again..."

......corpse.

Chapter 97: All of Orochimaru’s high-quality women!

Danzo tried to ask Orochimaru, but Orochimaru suddenly remained silent.

"Do you want to wait until you kill the Third Hokage and use it to make a deal with me?" Danzo frowned, but didn't think too much.

After all, Orochimaru didn't seem to have the intention to speak, so we would talk about it later.

Anyway, he has no shortage of items to trade with Orochimaru - with Konoha as the backstage, Danzo can get almost unlimited funds, and Orochimaru's many research projects are the most lacking in funds.

In fact, what Danzo cares most about is not the person who destroyed the root laboratory, but the position of Hokage!

So after many inquiries to no avail, Danzo left directly.

The next second, Natsuhiko's figure appeared in front of Orochimaru.

"Lord Orochimaru, I always thought that we should be excellent trading partners." Xia Yan sighed softly: "I didn't expect that Lord Orochimaru would use my information as an item to be traded with Danzo. This is really... ."

Xia Yan looked heartbroken: "Don't your conscience hurt?"

No, because I have no conscience at all.

Orochimaru subconsciously wanted to reply to this sentence, but he did not dare to say it seriously.

Because Xia Yan is suppressing him with strong murderous aura!

The unique kaleidoscope pattern in his eyes burst out with a coldness so cold that it seemed to be emanating from hell. The surging chakra surged out of his body, like a heavy hammer, hitting him hard.

"His strength has become stronger again!" Orochimaru swallowed silently, his eyes full of fear.

Xia Yan was very strong before, but now Xia Yan is even stronger!

He was so strong that even though he was so close, he used illusions to hide his figure.

But Danzo, a veteran shadow master, didn't notice it at all!

"Did the pattern in the eye change...the Eternal Kaleidoscope?"

""[-]" obviously didn't get the information that Itachi was attacked... Could it be that Fugaku also turned on the kaleidoscope back then?"

Orochimaru didn't know anything about Uchiha Madara's story back then.

After all, Itachi's power is exactly the same as Uchiha Madara's power back then...

Combined with the information that the Root Laboratory was attacked and important experimental materials were suspected to have been stolen, Orochimaru easily came to a wrong conclusion.

But what difference does it make whether this conclusion is correct?

puff!

Natsuhiko's figure suddenly approached, Orochimaru's pupils shrank, and he was about to react subconsciously.

As a result, his body sank.
