Konoha: This Uchiha is a bit too much.

Chapter 222: Hunting the Otsutsuki? Returning to the Village
As time went by, Konoha became lively unknowingly.

Although there were suddenly more outsiders in the village, this was not something strange for Konoha.

Over the years, with the bombardment of movies and the introduction of "exchange students", Konoha has long been accustomed to having a large number of outsiders in its village.

As long as these people don't cause trouble, no one will bother to pay attention to them.

After all, we are all the same people, just from different villages. Sooner or later, we will all live together again.

Of course, there is another reason not to worry, and that is that Konoha has a complete defense system!
No matter how powerful you are, or how strong you are, there are many powerful ninjas in Konoha.

No matter how strong you are, can you be stronger than our Hokage?

Even if the Hokage does not take action, Konoha still has the Assistant Hokage, the previous generation Hokage, as well as the Minister of Police and the Anbu and other powerful organizations.

If you dare to make trouble, you will be punished by various departments in minutes, and these departments will always strike hard against outsiders who make trouble!

"But this Chunin Exam is really something to look forward to. With such a big event, it will surely be exciting."

Many Konoha ninjas couldn't help but think secretly, and while the residents of Konoha were watching the excitement, the ninja in charge of checking in front of Konoha's gate was a little flustered.

Because at this moment, there was a group of about thirty people standing at the entrance of the village, quietly waiting for the review by the ninja at the entrance of the village.

"Humph, this Konoha Village is so arrogant. Teacher Maki personally brought us here and we were examined for such a long time. It's obvious that they don't trust us."

In the crowd, a ninja dressed in black whispered. His face was painted with thick oil paint and he was carrying something wrapped in white cloth behind him. He looked particularly mysterious.

As one of Rasa's most trusted ninjas, Maki seems to be just an ordinary elite jonin to the outside world, but he has a high reputation in the village.

Everyone knows that if nothing unexpected happens, he will probably be the next Kazekage Assistant.

"Okay, Kankuro, just behave yourself during this special period."

Beside him, a girl in white clothes and yellow hair whispered. She had a large folding fan on her back and looked full of youthful vitality.

"If there are outsiders coming to our Sand Village, and there are so many of them, they will be strictly checked. There is nothing to complain about."

"Humph!"

Kankuro couldn't help but snort when he heard this. He was obviously very unhappy about this happening.

In fact, what annoyed him was not only the problem of queuing, but also the prosperity of Konoha.

Ever since entering the Land of Fire, he had clearly felt a vitality that was completely different from that of their village!

Even the villages and towns in the Land of Fire that are far away from Konoha are far from being as prosperous as their Sand Village.

Such a huge gap made Kankuro feel particularly uncomfortable.

In fact, it was not just him, all the visitors were also unhappy. They were all wondering, "Why can Konoha occupy such fertile land, while they can't even touch the River Kingdom?"
The River Kingdom is a small country between the Fire Kingdom and the Wind Kingdom. It is also a natural buffer zone between the two sides. Wars basically break out in this place.

The River Kingdom has a pleasant climate and fertile land. Although the mineral resources may not be abundant, this land can satisfy one thing that the Wind Kingdom has always longed for - farming.

They don't have to think too much about other things, but they absolutely cannot tolerate the fact that they can't even be self-sufficient in food, and Konoha is the one who cut off their dreams!
"Okay, let's go in."

Just when Kankuro was feeling indignant, Maki had already returned with the documents.

After hearing this, everyone stopped talking and lined up to file into Konoha. They all seemed silent, but their eyes couldn't help but look at everything in Konoha.

It seemed that their curiosity could not be stopped at all, especially for Kankuro and Temari. This was their first time leaving the Land of Wind, and they were curious about everything in the Land of Fire.

Maki frowned when he saw this, but after thinking for a moment he sighed slightly. The prosperity of Konoha is really hard for ordinary people to imagine.

No matter what level of ninja they are, they will all be curious and can't help but explore. It's completely instinctive.

"Kankuro, Temari, you two can go and do whatever you want."

Thinking of this, Maki simply spoke.

"Although you have to prepare for the exams when you come to Konoha, you still have some free time. You can also investigate Konoha's intelligence."

"This"

Temari and Kankuro were stunned when they heard what Maki said, but soon a look of surprise appeared on their faces, and Temari couldn't help but ask.

"Mr. Maki, is this appropriate?"

"There's nothing inappropriate about that. You are my subordinates now, so just listen to me."

Maki waved his hand nonchalantly and spoke frankly.

"It's good to know your opponent. The whole party should collect intelligence."

Hearing Maki's words, Temari and Kankuro immediately became excited. After they bowed slightly to Maki, they turned around and went somewhere else.

They are genuinely curious about Konoha, and they really want to learn more about Konoha.

"Master Maki, is this really okay? They are Master Kazekage's children."

A ninja next to Maki couldn't help but ask when he saw this scene, but Maki shook his head slightly.

"There's nothing inappropriate about it. It's good to let them move around. Besides, we have other things to do, and we won't be able to control them when the time comes.

Instead of keeping them in the hotel all the time, it would be better to let them move around, right? "

As messengers, Maki and his companions have a lot to deal with. Not only do they have to meet with people from Konoha, but they also have to meet people from other villages.

With such a busy schedule, it is impossible to take care of these two little ones in every aspect.

In that case, it would be better to let these two little guys relax.

But he would never have thought that Kankuro and Temari had just left not long ago.

boom!
At a corner of the intersection, a little kid bumped into Kankuro head-on, causing Kankuro to almost lose his balance.

The kid was knocked back and staggered, leaning backwards. Finally, he couldn't keep his balance and sat down heavily on the ground.

"damn it"

Kankuro rubbed his abdomen, then looked at the person who bumped into him with an unfriendly look.

"Little devil, do you want to die?"
-
"Their team has arrived?"

"Yes, but their shadows may not come until the finals. However, there are signs that their troops have been mobilized."

In the Hokage's office, Yuori was sitting in front of the Hokage's desk listening to Minato's report, and he couldn't help but nodded slightly.

Although they were not worried that these guys would cause any trouble, they still needed to take serious matters seriously.

After all, these guys have all run into the village, and it would be a big problem if we can't handle them properly.

As for their troop movements, these people thought that their troops were hidden very well, and although in fact it was almost the same, the personnel configuration of Konoha was not what they could imagine!

After the first generation was resurrected, Yuori decisively gave him a task, asking him to find and monitor the large forces from other villages.

Regarding such things, the Shodaime wanted to stay in Konoha in his heart because he knew that Madara was also here.

However, after hearing about Yuzhi's mission, he finally agreed after weighing the pros and cons.

The problem between him and Madara will be solved sooner or later, so there is no need to rush. Moreover, from his perception, he found that Madara seemed to be no longer in Konoha.

This discovery made him feel a little regretful, but he was not surprised. After all, Madara's situation was too special.

Therefore, it would not be a bad thing for Hashirama to temporarily leave Konoha and collect some information outside.

Now he has obtained enough information, which also allows Konoha to have better preparation space.

"Then let the police department be mobilized at any time, and tell Shisui that he might be busy during this period."

Yuzhi thought about it, then he smiled and spoke.

"As for the hard-working members of the police department, Konoha can bear part of the subsidy. I think they will be happy to do so."

"In fact, it's no problem for Konoha to take on all of it."

Minato smiled and shook his head, then he looked at the time and spoke.

"Then if there's nothing else, I'll go check out the exam room. The Sandaime is also moving during this exam, and everyone is trying to keep things safe."

There is another difference between this Chunin Exam and the original one, that is, the chief examiner of this exam will be Minato Namikaze throughout the whole process.

Given his identity, he doesn't need to do this at all, but considering the seriousness of the matter this time, he decided to deal with these problems personally.

Therefore, he had a lot of things to prepare, and the Sandaime and others were responsible for the reception matters. It can be said that everyone was busy.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

Yuori smiled and nodded, and Minato's chakra moved slightly, and the next moment he disappeared in the office.

Looking at the disappearing Minato, Yuori stretched slightly.

However, when he felt the majestic vitality in his body, he couldn't help but smile again.

"This kind of vitality is really stronger than I could imagine."

How strong the vitality in Yuori's body is now, he himself is actually not quite sure, as a life form that has just crossed the 'human' level and reached the 'Otsutsuki' level.

Even though he has a completely new concept of life and many things at this time, his consciousness as a human being still affects some of his own judgments.

In particular, his situation is even more special because he is a 'wall hanger'!
After being forcibly "upgraded" by Kaguya Otsutsuki, Yuori's situation has completed the final "fusion", and it is a "flawless" fusion!

In addition to the benefits this fusion brought him as an 'Otsutsuki', his plug-in finally took effect.

He was still one level away from reaching the 'Long Steps to Godhood', but this forced upgrade had unsurprisingly activated the last section of his 'Long Steps to Godhood'!
"As expected, the last section of the 'Long Stairway to Godhood' is the breakthrough of the Bloodline Network."

Yuzhi murmured, the breakthrough of the bloodline network brought about a qualitative leap, and the long step to godhood allowed Yuzhi to truly cross to an unimaginable level.

Perhaps in order to make up for the loss caused by Yuzhi's life leap, the final upgrade of the Long Steps to Godhood is not focused on "strength" but on "quality of life"!

This improvement also made Yuzhi understand more about the meaning of "life".

In Yuori's previous life, there were actually two legendary ways to complete the life span.

One is the cyberpunk style of 'flesh and blood are weak, machines ascend', and the other is the 'genetic ascension' with the style of cultivating immortals.

The reason why cultivating immortals is called "genetic ascension" is actually because the traditional thinking of cultivating immortals is to use the power of nature to complete one's own complete transformation.

During this transformation, one's own cells and genes also change, so it is not wrong to call it 'genetic ascension'.

"For a time traveler like me, what I can really accept is cultivation, not 'cyberpunk'."

As the saying goes, we want both delicious food and spicy drinks, and essential oil SPA; we want both food, drink and fun, and snow, moon, wind and flowers.

My whole body has turned into iron and I have lost all my desires. What is the point of this mechanical ascension?
Therefore, in Yuori's inherent thinking, the way to ascend is not to replace the body, but to make the body immortal.

"But for ordinary people, it is impossible to achieve immortality of the body."

Yuzhi smiled bitterly. The difference in life levels was really too great, and the power of nature also played a huge role in it.

There are only so many resources in nature, and it is certainly impossible for a group of living beings to do whatever they want.

Since reaching this level, Yuori can also perceive that many natural crises are actually a kind of natural "self-cleaning".

Whether it is common natural disasters or extreme natural climate, they are actually the same, they are all for balancing the number of lives.

Under such circumstances, some "small changes" have also occurred in human life genes, such as recording a "main task" in the genes.

The task is to allow individuals that have completed their reproduction tasks to gradually die so as not to squeeze out the survival resources of future generations.

Because the death of individuals is beneficial to the reproduction of the group.

If individuals of the older generation never die, the next generation will not be able to take over the mainstream, and the evolution of life will be locked in the previous generation.

"This is a bit like when I was a wage earner in my previous life. If I wanted to get promoted, I had to wait for my boss to get promoted. If he couldn't get promoted, I could only wait for him to get promoted."

Yuzhi couldn't help but shook his head when he thought of this. Under the suppression of nature, genes naturally would not care about the life or death of individuals.

Its starting point has always been the ethnic group, and the underlying logic of evolution has never been the individual, but to ensure the continuation of the ethnic group.

With double suppression, it is almost impossible to achieve eternal life. And under such suppression, it is even more unimaginable to complete the transformation of life!

Yuzhi himself had no idea how much chakra his upgrade had consumed, and he himself could not count how many lives had been lost as a result of his upgrade.

Normally, it might take a very long time for his body to fully recover after such an improvement.

Even if it does not affect his combat effectiveness, it will definitely affect his upper limit. After all, he is not a "celestial dragon".

He wasn't born an 'Otsutsuki', he came this far step by step!
"Besides, even the Ōtsutsuki probably need to use their lives to improve themselves and replenish themselves at the same time."

Only after becoming an Otsutsuki did he understand more and more about what those Otsutsuki did, and the more he understood, the colder he felt in his heart.

Before he crossed over, he knew there was a so-called 'Otsutsuki God' who could push the life level to that point.
"How much life did this guy absorb?"

Yuzhi couldn't believe it or imagine it, but at this moment he had a crazy idea in his heart.

He is a person who never stops, and he also needs to consider people like Guang, Shisui, Sasuke, etc.

How can we absorb and replenish such a huge amount of chakra and vitality, and where can we get this power from?
Are you going to learn from Otsutsuki?

Or, if you find a suitable planet, you can go up and say, "I suspect that your planet has weapons of mass destruction, which seriously endanger the security of the universe"?
Then they are forced to log in and plant trees in peace. If they want to be decent, let them be decent. If they don’t want to be decent, help them be decent?

Maybe when resources are abundant, you can use the strategy of "capturing them by mobilizing them and making them enslaved" to catch some of them to help you mine resources?
“Isn’t this a bit too much?”

This is so amazing that Auschwitz cried and Siberia was silent. If he could not fly over there, he would have wanted to name the spaceship he was riding "Mayflower"
Although the plundering of resources cannot be said to be robbery, it is to assist the aliens in developing the planet, but if this really happens, there will be no difference between Yuori and Otsutsuki.

"Besides, they have been working hard on this little piece of land in the universe for so long, sucking the marrow out of it. How much is left for me?"

Yuzhi's eyes were dim, and although she was moved, she forced herself to suppress it.

“The reason why humans can rule the earth and become terrifying upright apes is because humans are good at thinking.

When winter comes, herbivores survive the winter by migrating, small animals survive the winter by digging burrows, and carnivores survive the winter by thick fat.

Humans rely on plucking the fur of other animals and covering themselves with it to survive the winter, and humans have never evolved any messy abilities such as toxins.

Because if I take the poison from poisonous creatures and smear it on weapons, what's yours will become mine."

What's yours is mine, that's the key!
Since Kaguya Otsutsuki has offended those Otsutsuki, and since those Otsutsuki will continue to come to the Ninja World.

Since Yuori also needs a lot of vitality and huge chakra, who else could be more worthy of being absorbed than Otsutsuki?

They can absorb billions of lives to improve themselves, but can't they let Yuori absorb them to improve themselves?

"Besides, there are only so many resources in the universe, and they occupy absolutely all of them. If we take action against them, it would actually be a good thing for the universe, right?"

Yuori subconsciously ignored the fact that these Otsutsuki were actually most likely the 'space scavengers'.

After all, life is over-reproducing and someone does need to clean it up, otherwise there wouldn't be a purple sweet potato that wants to snap its fingers no matter which world it is in.

But Yuzhi didn't care about him that much, although his cultural system often advocated the principle of following the laws of nature.

But in his spiritual core there is always the thought of "fighting against the sky, fighting against the earth, fighting against people, the fun is endless", how could he not give it a try?
"Ohtsutsuki."

Thinking of this, Yuzhi's eyes became deep.

"Now, I welcome you to come over!"
-
Just when Yuori was experiencing a mental storm in her heart and was even a little crazy and wanted to attack Otsutsuki.

On one side of Konoha, Kankuro said with a bad look.

"Little devil, do you want to die?"

"Damn, that hurts."

Konohamaru also had a look of aggrieved expression on his face, he was also a little dazed from being hit.

As soon as he heard someone talking like that, he couldn't hold it anymore!

"Asshole, who are you to dare to talk to me like that? Do you know who my big brothers are?"

"I don't care who your brothers are!" Kankuro sneered with danger in his eyes.

"You dare to speak so arrogantly after provoking me? You are really courting death!"

"Oh?"

Looking at Kankuro walking towards him with his fists clenched, Konohamaru did not panic as expected, but looked at him with a strange look.

However, when Konohamaru saw Kankuro's forehead protector, he seemed to suddenly understand.

"No wonder, it turns out you are not from Konoha, but even if you are not from Konoha, you are still the first one in Konoha to be so arrogant.

Are you sure you want to attack me, and in Konoha?"

Although the Sandaime was never able to "restore" because of the haori, but "a blessing in disguise".

Not only is his eldest son alive, he also has a good relationship with his youngest son Asma. Not only that, his wife has also been resurrected.

Although he was forced to compromise at the beginning because of the threat from the Three Pairs of Mangekyō, he now truly recognizes Konoha.

The difference between him and Danzo is that he is more reasonable and more capable of "knowing the current situation".
As for Konohamaru, because he is not the Hokage, his status may not be as good as in the original work, but he had a better life since childhood.

Under the education of Shinnosuke and his wife, he performed very well overall, and he knew Sasuke and Naruto at a very young age.

Therefore, Sasuke and Naruto both had a younger brother.
Although he never dared to show any pride towards the people in his own village, after all, he was under pressure from his father, and Yuzhi was also quite disgusted with the chaos of big families.

The Uchiha also set a good example, so the major families followed suit, and Konohamaru naturally could not escape.

But he has no problem treating people from his own village, but he will be a little proud when dealing with outsiders, and he will not be in a good mood when dealing with outsiders who are particularly arrogant.

"Tsk, I don't care who you are, I'm going to beat you up today!"

It’s a pity that Konohamaru was unlucky enough to meet Kankuro this time. It’s not because Kankuro was a fool, but because he was also the Son of Shadow!
He really doesn't need to be so cautious when doing some things. As long as there is no war and as long as both sides maintain a semblance of peace, his identity can really bring him some convenience.

But before he could do anything, a figure appeared behind him the next moment, and the cold feeling made his hair stand on end.

"Oh, is it so?"

A cold voice suddenly sounded, and he could even feel a chill on his neck.

As expected, a ninja sword was placed on his neck!

"So fast!"

Temari saw the person appearing behind Kankuro, and she immediately wanted to do something, but she suddenly found that the fan behind her had been held down by someone!

"Hey, hey, hey, you outsiders, you better behave yourself and don't mess around in Konoha, otherwise Sasuke will kill you."

Behind her, another voice was heard, and out of the corner of her eye she saw a young man with blond hair.

The speed of these two people was so fast that it was breathtaking. Kankuro and Temari didn't even see clearly how the two people moved. They only knew that they were subdued in an instant!

Such a speed really made them feel scared, but when they heard the name "Sasuke", they seemed to understand something in an instant.

"Are you Uchiha Sasuke, the adopted son of the Fifth Hokage, and Uzumaki Naruto, the son of the Fourth Hokage?"

Temari asked with a somewhat dark complexion. She really didn't expect that she would offend these two people on her first day in Konoha.

Maybe these two people are not as strong as imagined, but what the people behind them represent is what scares them the most!

"Oh, you know us?"

Naruto blinked, then looked at Sasuke with a smile.

"See, I told you we're still famous!"

"Shut up, idiot."

Sasuke didn't bother to pay any attention to Naruto. As Naruto's best friend, he knew very well that this guy was very likely to "start a war if given a little color".

He simply glanced around in confusion, as he saw no sign of Gaara.

But he was too lazy to think about it now, he looked at Kankuro and Temari indifferently and said.

"I don't care who you are, it looks like you are here to take the exam, so you'd better abide by Konoha's rules.

You are lucky to have met us this time. If it was an Anbu, the probability of you being killed would be very high if you just attacked this guy.

You know, although he looks silly, his grandfather is the Sandaime Hokage.

So, for your lives, and so that you can successfully take part in the Chunin Exam, I hope you can behave yourself."

Sasuke spoke in a very high-sounding manner, but in his heart he was thinking: In fact, there is no difference between taking part in the Chunin Exam and being targeted by the Anbu now, it means death anyway.

But he was too lazy to say this, there was no need.

If someone wants to die, does he have to have a heart of a saint to save him?
It’s good enough that I didn’t kick him!

"Humph."

Kankuro snorted unhappily, but this time his voice was much softer and he was obviously feeling guilty.

Temari bowed slightly to express her gratitude and understanding. She never thought that she would meet three "princelings" at the same time in Konoha?
Such bad luck is unmatched!

"We understand. We will abide by Konoha's rules. Please rest assured."

"That's good, Konohamaru, let's go."

Sasuke glanced at the two of them, obviously not interested in continuing to talk nonsense with these guys here, he pulled Konohamaru and turned away.

This made Naruto purse his lips in dissatisfaction, but Naruto did not do anything that would "affect harmony" in front of "outsiders". He simply followed and left.

"These guys are so damn annoying"

After seeing them leave, Kankuro cursed angrily, and Temari sighed.

"Well, this is someone else's territory, so we should be careful."

"Tch, I get it."

Although Kankuro felt uncomfortable, he still nodded to show that he understood, but soon he frowned and asked.

"But where are the teammates of these two guys? Why can't I see them? Are they not on good terms?"

"Who knows."

Temari shook her head, stating in their manual that the two had a teammate.

But this person is extremely low-key, and few people can figure out who he is.

"Forget it, maybe we'll know later."

Temari replied casually, but at this moment she suddenly froze, because in the distance next to Naruto and Sasuke, a red-haired figure suddenly appeared.

This person appeared extremely quickly, but disappeared equally quickly, leaving Temari no room to react.

But for some reason, seeing this figure, the vague memories in Temari's mind began to surge.

"Hey, where have you been, Gaara?"

Just after turning the corner, Naruto was about to separate from those guys from the Sand Village, and he was about to start a good verbal battle with Sasuke.

He hadn't forgotten that this guy had just called him an idiot, but he didn't get angry for the sake of "unity". But now it's different!

But at this moment, Gaara's figure suddenly appeared, which suddenly interrupted Naruto and made Naruto a little curious.

"Yeah, I didn't see you just now, what's the matter?"

Sasuke asked with some concern, after all, they were teammates and they got along well, and he didn't want any problems with his teammates.

"Nothing, just met a few acquaintances."

Aiwo Luo shook his head, his eyes still scanning behind him. He naturally recognized the two people just now.

And based on the information Yahiko gave him, he also knew that some big things might happen in Konoha in the future, even.
"Are you coming too, my father?"

There was a hint of ferocity in Gaara's eyes, and everything that happened in the Sand Village slowly emerged in his mind.

Taking a deep breath, he shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He was no longer the same Gaara, and he no longer even belonged to Sunagakure.

This time, maybe we can finally put an end to it!
"Brother, sister, right? I hope you can perform better in the exam, at least you won't make me feel bored!"
-
"This is your pass, please keep it safe. During your stay in Konoha, please abide by all the laws of Konoha. If you need anything, you can contact our Konoha ninjas. Thank you!"

At the gate of Konoha Village, the ninjas on duty were still busy.

Standing in front of a Chunin was a ninja with a somewhat pale face, wearing a black standard combat uniform and a Sound Ninja forehead protector.

Next to him was a ninja with red hair who looked exceptionally young.

The two of them are the 'Snake and Scorpion' of the Akatsuki organization, Orochimaru and Scorpion!
The Akatsuki organization will be involved in this operation, and it would be somewhat unreasonable for a Konoha rebel like Orochimaru not to come back to see the "cherry blossoms blooming in his hometown."

Whether to make up the numbers or to demonstrate his own value, Orochimaru naturally had to come to Konoha.

He would not refuse such a thing, and he also wanted to see how far Yuori would take things this time!

"It really makes me nostalgic. Konoha has changed a lot over the years, and it's becoming more and more prosperous."

Walking on the streets of Konoha, Orochimaru looked around and whispered with a smile.

"It is indeed very different from the Rain Country, Sound Village, and Sand Village. Ordinary people and ninjas here seem to get along harmoniously."

Scorpion on the side was also observing Konoha, and what he said was true.

Even in the Land of Rain, the status of ninjas is slightly higher than that of ordinary ninjas. After all, ninjas are the ones who possess power.

But in Konoha, the feeling given is harmony, and everyone seems to be the same person. Even if a ninja does something wrong, civilians can still scold the ninja.

Such a thing is unimaginable in other places.

"This can also be attributed to Uchiha Yuori, the Fifth Hokage."

Orochimaru looked at the Hokage Rock in front of him, especially at the portrait of Yuori, and he suddenly laughed.

"According to his propaganda, civilians also create social wealth. If it weren't for them digging pits, farming, and forging, ninjas wouldn't have so many conveniences.

Everyone complements each other. Even though the status of ninjas is still much higher, they have achieved equality to some extent. I have to say that this Hokage is really a pioneering person."

"Yeah, even some equality would be nice."

Scorpion nodded. Such a place is indeed easy to give people a good impression, and Scorpion really likes this place very much.

"Come to think of it, you're not going to resurrect your parents yet?"

Orochimaru looked at Scorpion looking around, and suddenly asked with amusement.

"Wouldn't it be nice to let your parents see the scenery of Konoha and feel the atmosphere of the times?"

"I'm worried that they will find it hard to accept. After all, they are also limited by the times."

When Scorpion heard what Orochimaru said, he couldn't help but pause for a moment, then he shook his head.

"But it will happen soon. I should be able to see my grandma this time. Of course, she may not come back, but I will meet her sooner or later.

There are some things that I need to discuss with her face to face, only then will I feel at ease. "

"You want her to help you convince your parents."

Orochimaru smiled silently, he could guess what Scorpion was thinking.

"At the same time, if she doesn't cooperate, you can deal with her in advance and release her from the Pure Land later?"

"Who knows."

Scorpion smiled slightly, he looked up at the sky, then looked at the Hokage Rock, after a moment he asked with a smile.

“I will solve my problem. If it doesn’t work, I will ask you to help me. I don’t think you will refuse.

But before that, I have a question for you. There should have been a portrait of you there. Do you regret it?"

Do you regret it?
Orochimaru tilted his head and looked at the Hokage Rock in the sunlight in the distance, and after a moment he smiled.

Maybe there was a moment of regret, but in pursuit of the 'meaning of life', he didn't think he could regret it. Besides, hadn't he already got it?
-
Not long after Orochimaru and Sasori entered Konoha, the sound of bells was faintly heard at the gate of Konoha.

Along with the sound of bells, two blurry figures appeared in the distance.

As the figure approached, a black robe appeared in front of him, with a tall hat and two hanging white cloths covering his face.

"Hey, take off your hats. This is Konoha, and we need to verify our identity to enter."

Although there were a lot of people at this time, the Konoha ninjas still performed their duties conscientiously.

However, as the two figures got closer, the crisp sound of the bell gave the ninja an unusual sense of oppression, and at that moment he fell into a trance.

The two men didn't even look at the ninja, and without causing any commotion, they walked into the village without hesitation.

"Hey, you guys."

The other Konoha ninja frowned slightly, then he stood up and shouted.

Just as he shouted, the two figures stopped and one of the ninjas looked at him. Just when he was about to speak, he found a blood-red color suddenly appeared in front of him.

The ghostly and enchanting three magatama appeared and rotated slightly. The Konoha ninja froze for a moment, then spoke with a smile.

"So it's Uchiha-sama. I'm sorry for the disrespect. Please go in quickly."

"Let's go!"

Pulling the hat down again, Uchiha Itachi's calm voice came, but his voice was somewhat cold.

"You could have just used your space magic to get in, but you had to do this. Are you really not afraid of being discovered?"

"You are wrong. If you use space magic to get in, you will be most likely to be discovered."

Obito snorted nonchalantly, and his voice seemed a little cold.

"Besides, I also need to confirm your ability. If you are too weak, you are not worthy of teaming up with me to carry out the mission."

When Uchiha Itachi heard this, he just glanced at Obito lightly, then looked away and ignored him.

Uchiha Itachi had a good idea of ​​how badly Obito had lost, and he was amazed that this guy could say such things so brazenly.

Although he himself lost, Uchiha Yuori started much faster than him, and what about Obito?

He lost in school, he lost in graduation, he lost after becoming a rebel ninja, he even lost the Water Country and all his self-confidence. Uchiha Itachi was too lazy to talk nonsense with such a person.

If he didn't still need this guy's power, if he didn't still need the Akatsuki organization to "clear the court of evil rulers" for Konoha, he really wanted to shout "I'm ashamed to be associated with you"!
"Forget it, this is the best chance."

Uchiha Itachi raised his head and looked forward, looking at the Hokage Rock shining in the sun, and at the unique and lifelike portrait of Yuori.

His fists had been clenched involuntarily. This was definitely the scene he least wanted to see.

But this time, his chance has come!

"I must eliminate this evil villain for Konoha!"

While Uchiha Itachi was roaring in his heart, Obito also looked at the statue of Yuori, and coincidentally, his fist also hardened.

"Shameless thief, all this should belong to me!"

Obito roared hysterically in his heart, but he quickly suppressed his emotions and took a deep breath.

"It's almost done. Everything will be done soon. As long as we can get the Samsara Eye."

"Then I will put an end to everything you have!"
