From Naruto onwards, I've become a dreamer.

Chapter 224 Mr. A: Judging from your faces, you two are destined to meet my Aurora!
White Fang remained silent, his heart filled with turmoil.

Judging from their determination, if they hadn't satisfied Mikoto Uchiha, they probably wouldn't have been able to escape today.

He had just tested the defensive strength of Susanoo; it took him all his strength to break through it, but that was only the first stage.

Who knows, if Mikoto Uchiha is pushed too far, given the Uchiha clan's level of neurosis, she might suddenly jump to the second or third stage?
By then... it won't be easy to break through.

Moreover, he also had Orochimaru as a burden on his side. If a fight really broke out, he couldn't guarantee that Orochimaru would survive in the end.

If he dies, wouldn't he be unable to defend himself?
After much deliberation, White Fang reluctantly nodded in agreement, but still warned, "Orochimaru, you'd better know your limits, or I'll be the first to deal with you."

"Hehe, you can rest assured, White Teeth."

Orochimaru grinned and said calmly, "My dream hasn't even come true yet, so why would I take any risks?"

Seeing that the agreement had been reached, Uchiha Mikoto couldn't wait to ask, "When is the opportunity you mentioned?"

The hope of reviving that person was now within reach, and she didn't want to wait a moment longer; she couldn't wait to know immediately.

"Hehe, no need to rush, Uchiha Mikoto."

Orochimaru looked at her and said meaningfully, "That opportunity may or may not appear. It all depends on the choice of fate."

Upon hearing this, Mikoto's eyes hardened, and she said in a deep voice, "How do I know you're not lying to me?"

"The choice is also in your hands."

Orochimaru remained unfazed and said with amusement, "If you don't believe me, you can continue fighting. Anyway, White Fang and I might not die, but your hope of reviving that person is definitely gone."

Completely caught in his trap, Uchiha Mikoto remained silent for a long time before staring at him with bloodshot eyes: "Fine, I'll believe you this once, Orochimaru. If you dare to lie to me, even if you escape to the ends of the earth, I swear I will kill you!"

"No need, at the latest a month."

Orochimaru chuckled and shook his head, saying, "If nothing happens, then it proves that you were not chosen by fate."

Hearing the completely baffling description, Mikoto Uchiha's doubts deepened, but she still held onto a sliver of hope for 'resurrection'.

After all, the fact that White Tooth, who was once dead, is now standing alive in front of us is the best proof, isn't it?
She couldn't miss this last chance, so she nodded and said in a deep voice, "Okay, we'll do it your way."

"And one more thing."

Orochimaru licked his lips, his cold eyes fixed on her, and said, "I need to plant the 'Tongue-Swept Seal' on you to prevent you from revealing today's conversation. Do you agree?"

"can."

Mikoto took a deep breath and then agreed.

She was desperate, grasping at straws, completely disregarding the threats. Her mind was consumed by how to resurrect that person; everything else? None of that mattered anymore!
Soon, Orochimaru planted the Tongue-Root Calamity Seal on Mikoto's tongue.

"Orochimaru, if you dare to lie to me..."

Mikoto felt the restriction placed upon her, and a terrifying killing intent was revealed in her fierce eyes.

"Heh, if fate hadn't chosen you."

Orochimaru's cold eyes also radiated killing intent as he said, "Sakumo and I will come to Konoha to kill you, so don't worry."

"it is good."

Mikoto Uchiha stared coldly at them, then turned and carried the heavily injured Kakashi on her back.

After taking two steps, she turned back, looked at White Fang, and said, "I will use illusion magic to temporarily seal his memories of today, so you don't need to worry."

After a moment's hesitation, White Tooth nodded slightly, a look of gratitude on his face: "Thank you."

Swish!
Mikoto carried Kakashi on her back and disappeared into the forest.

Only after confirming that Mikoto had truly left did White Fang look at Orochimaru with displeasure, his words tinged with reproach: "You were really too bold just now. What do you think would happen if Mr. 'Adam' found out that you were contacting other people in private, and even trying to recruit them into our ranks?"

"When did I ever agree to let her join us?"

Orochimaru said calmly, "I only said that I would give her a chance. As for the real decision, it is up to Mr. Adam. You and I are just insignificant cogs in the machine. Even if Mr. Adam really blames me, it will only be me. You don't need to worry."

He admitted that he was really bold.

But there's a reason for all of this, though he's unwilling to go into details.

He was actually gambling that Mr. Adam intended to increase the number of members in the Twilight Hermits.

If he guesses correctly, his importance in Mr. Adam's heart will surely be greatly enhanced; if he guesses wrong, he will only pay a heavy price.

He believes the risks and rewards go hand in hand, but it's worth the gamble!
"I'll leave the rest of the journey to you, White Fang." Orochimaru was still very weak and, at least for the time being, was unable to move freely.

"it is good."

White Fang carried Orochimaru on his back, determined the direction, and then sped forward, stepping on tree trunks.

"Did you get the stuff?"

After escaping danger, Orochimaru finally had time to inquire about that thing.

"Ah."

White Tooth nodded slightly in confirmation.

"That's good, that's good"

Orochimaru breathed a sigh of relief. It would have been a huge loss if he had paid such a high price and ended up not getting what he wanted.

"Have you... seen it?"

Orochimaru asked again, a hint of eagerness in his eyes.

"I...have seen it."

White Tooth paused for a moment, then hurriedly said, "It's not what you think. This is only one-twenty-second of the stone slab. The text recorded on it... is completely undecipherable, and it will cause dizziness, nausea, tinnitus, auditory hallucinations, and other symptoms."

After hearing his description, Orochimaru chuckled and said nonchalantly, "Since it is a vessel that records the path of the gods, it will naturally not be so easily known to us. But it doesn't matter... After offering it to Mr. 'Adam,' we should be able to receive a path as a reward."

"Ah."

White Tooth gave a brief reply, without mentioning the issue of allocation.

Because they were all intelligent people, they knew that now was not the time to talk about these things. The most important thing was to get to the secret base as soon as possible and set up the 'ritual' to inform Mr. Adam.

Their target is the Land of Fields, which borders the Land of Fire.

There, Orochimaru had secretly established a base long ago, and cultivated a number of loyal followers.

Just as White Fang was carrying Orochimaru and flying swiftly through the forest, he suddenly heard a harsh, hoarse sound, like sand rubbing against each other, coming from directly behind him.

"You two, please stay!"

Instead of stopping, the white-toothed creature ahead accelerated.

"Gentlemen, please wait!"

However, the sound didn't get any farther away; in fact, it got even closer!

White Fang suddenly accelerated, trying to shake off the person behind him.

But the next second, a dark figure suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking their way.

White Fang braced his feet on the tree trunk, gracefully gliding through the air before landing a short distance away, warily watching the dark figure.

Then, the dark figure emerged from the shadows of the trees. It was a middle-aged man dressed in a black overcoat, with slicked-back hair, dressed as a priest. His demeanor alternated between madness and refinement, creating a strange, mixed feeling. He held a silver cross in his hand.

"Hehe, you two, don't be in such a hurry~"

The man smiled devoutly, holding the cross, and said, "Judging from your faces, you two seem to have a connection with my Aurora. Why don't you consider it?"

草.
At that moment, both White Fang and Orochimaru felt as if a million alpacas were galloping through their minds.

Who is the worst person to meet?
But at this crucial moment, they ran into their arch-rival, the Aurora Club!
Seeing that the two remained silent, the man continued, "Let me introduce myself. I am Mr. A from the Aurora Society. If it is alright, I would like to introduce you to our Heavenly Father and Savior, the great Creator who created the world, the source of all beings, the true Creator!"

Damn it, did I get possessed today?

Orochimaru's forehead veins throbbed wildly, and he seriously suspected that today was his unlucky day.

Otherwise, why would they keep popping up one after another?
The person they least wanted to run into was the one who would inevitably appear right in front of them!

"No, I don't want to know, thank you."

After a moment of silence, Bai Ya's lips twitched, and he politely declined, saying, "We have other matters to attend to. Sorry, we'll have to go now."

But Mr. A stepped forward and blocked their way, a broad smile on his face: "I won't stop you two from leaving, but could you please hand over the 'Desecrating Slab' to me?"

Today is another day of men earning 10,000 yuan.
