I am the most popular character in Naruto!

However, with Chiaki, a seasoned driver who used to be a boy, guiding him, he has grown a lot and naturally understands what Chiaki means.

Besides, even if you're still unsure, there's always "Make-Out Paradise"!

I will naturally reread the books that Qianqiu loves to read in the future.

"However, this is somewhat troublesome..."

After teasing the future for a while, Chiaki looked around with some difficulty. "I thought I could find Snake Auntie quickly after arriving in the Land of Grass, but it seems that it is still a bit difficult."

The Land of Grass is too big, and there are too many people.

Although Chiaki knew that Orochimaru was in the Land of Grass, she didn't know exactly where.

She also asked the people of the Land of Grass about the location of the Sound Village by transforming herself, but they looked at her with complete confusion.

This is probably because the Sound Village had not yet been established at that time.

"Since we can't find Lord Orochimaru, why don't we just have him come to us?"

After holding Qianqiu's arm and thinking for a moment, Mirai's eyes lit up and she said to Qianqiu.

"what?"

Qianqiu blinked and said excitedly, "That's right! Aunt Snake must have known I was here!"

"In that case, let her come find us!"

"So, all we need to do is make a commotion, right?"

Chiaki gripped her parasol tightly with great interest. Making a scene wouldn't be too difficult; all she had to do was remove her veil...

Just as Chiaki was about to make a move, a ninja suddenly appeared beside her and whispered, "Your Highness, Lord Orochimaru requests your presence!"

"...Hey! I haven't even started anything yet!"

Qianqiu puffed out her cheeks.

Chapter 468 Orochimaru's Gentleness

"Why did you come to my place?"

Orochimaru, dressed in a white lab coat, didn't turn around to look at Chiaki, but instead spoke to the corpse in front of him.

“I came here specifically to find you, Aunt Snake.”

Chiaki smiled broadly, completely oblivious to the corpse in front of Orochimaru.

Orochimaru paused in his actions and glanced back at Chiaki.

"Is it about the Hokage?"

His hoarse voice carried a hint of disdain. "The old man sent you to find me?"

"Huh, Aunt Snake, how did you know?"

Chiaki blinked, and Orochimaru gestured for her to come to his side.

Trusting Orochimaru, Chiaki walked straight to his side without hesitation.

“Look at this person.”

Orochimaru shook his head, gesturing for Chiaki to look at the corpse in front of him.

Chiaki frowned. As a ninja, she had taken many lives, but seeing the bloody corpses so directly still made her feel uncomfortable.

"Did you notice anything?"

Orochimaru looked at Chiaki calmly. He was currently doing something that the entire ninja world could not accept—human experimentation.

He couldn't tell whether he was looking forward to it or afraid, but he really wanted to know what Chiaki was thinking right now.

What pleased Orochimaru was that Chiaki was only somewhat resistant to dead people, but had absolutely no feelings about him conducting human experiments.

It's exactly the same as before, nothing has changed.

"Auntie Snake, this person should be a ninja from Konoha, right?"

Chiaki observed the corpse on the operating table and said to Orochimaru with a puzzled look, "Didn't you not use Konoha ninja corpses in your experiments before?"

She truly felt nothing. Human experimentation is not uncommon in modern times. As long as it is not a malicious experiment, Qianqiu, who is heavily influenced by the internet, would not feel anything.

Orochimaru chuckled. He liked Chiaki just the way she was; she never hindered him because of "rebellious" reasons, but instead often helped him.

"That's right, these are Konoha ninjas."

Orochimaru nodded frankly, confirming Chiaki's guess, "This person was a Root ninja. I wiped him out after I discovered him that day."

"The roots..."

Qianqiu pursed her lips. "He's in your lab?"

"Yes, they're stealing my data, about human experimentation, heh..."

Orochimaru's hoarse, chilling laughter echoed in the operating room. "So now he's become the subject of my human experiments."

"What do the Root ninjas want to do?"

"Or rather... what does Danzo want to do?"

Chiaki frowned, took a step back, turned away from the blood-soaked corpse, and looked directly at Orochimaru, asking.

Orochimaru chuckled and looked at Chiaki, saying, "With your brain, can't you guess what that old codger Danzo is up to?"

"?"

Chiaki was stunned for a moment, then guessed based on the plot of the original work, and looked at Orochimaru with a grim expression: "Because of the Hokage matter?"

"Yes."

Orochimaru shrugged, looking indifferent, and returned to the corpse, beginning his attack.

"...Aunt Snake, about this matter..."

Chiaki bit her lip. So that's how it is. So it was because of the Hokage that Orochimaru was forced to leave the village.

In the original story, it might not have been related to me, but in the current situation, it's clear that it was because I came to find Orochimaru that Danzo's side incited the Root ninjas to attack Orochimaru.

She bears a certain degree of responsibility.

"It has nothing to do with you, Seven."

Orochimaru paused in his actions, then said to Chiaki, "Human experimentation is an inherently heinous act. If I continue, it will be exposed sooner or later."

“I made preparations a long time ago, such as this base in the Grass Country.”

"I heard you call this place the Sound Village? That's not bad."

"Uh……"

Qianqiu grinned awkwardly and quickly steered the conversation back on track.

"No, then the question is how to solve this situation?"

She looked anxiously at Orochimaru, but Orochimaru remained completely calm.

Do you think I should stop human experimentation?

He calmly conducted the experiment and asked Qianqiu a question.

"...This step is necessary for development."

Qianqiu opened her mouth, then answered firmly.

Human experimentation is an unavoidable practice in every era. For the sake of human development, uncovering the secrets of humanity is an inevitable path.

Although the world considers human experimentation taboo, there are still many people conducting it.

The most unique one is the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.

Chiaki is also a product of Tobirama Senju's human experimentation, and is the most compelling evidence.

The ninja world is different from the Earth where Chiaki lived. Ninjas have more complex energies in their bodies. Without human experimentation, much precise information would be lost and would remain unknown to others.

Orochimaru was doing something for the development of all humanity in the ninja world, and he was not wrong.

Therefore, the only ones who are wrong are those with outdated ideas, nothing more.

"That's it."

Orochimaru chuckled softly, quite agreeing with Chiaki's answer, "Since you think it's right, then it's right."

"As for Danzo, let him be."

He said calmly, "With our current strength, even if we leave Konoha, we can still do what we want."

"Or rather, after leaving Konoha, I was able to conduct my experiments more quietly."

"Aunt Snake..."

Chiaki looked at Orochimaru with emotion. Although Chiaki knew from the original work that Orochimaru had such tendencies, hearing Orochimaru's answer in person still made her feel somewhat sad.

Konoha was Chiaki's second home, and Orochimaru was one of her closest people.

How could Qianqiu remain calm and unmoved when her loved ones said they were leaving home?

"Alright, stop crying."

Orochimaru stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. He turned around and looked at Chiaki gently with his golden vertical pupils. "No matter where I am, you can come to me anytime."

"It's just a change of location, nothing to cry about."

"Well……"

Qianqiu pouted, "I didn't cry, I just feel... the house has become lonely."

"Ah, home is wherever you are, Xiao Qi."

Orochimaru chuckled softly, "For me, Tsunade, and even that idiot Jiraiya, it's all the same wherever we are."

“I have no interest in Naruto. Just tell that to the old man when you get back.”

"Is your next target Tsunade?"

"She's in the Land of Hot Water right now, and she probably has some Root ninjas with her. Let's go find her."

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes. "As for Danzo... I'll teach him a lesson later."
