Konoha: My peaceful life was betrayed by the system.

Watergate, on the other hand, is truly dedicated; he spends all his time either handling official business or learning how to manage the village.

I'm incredibly busy every day.

Toru repeatedly suggested to him how to slack off easily and efficiently, but Minato refused each time.

In his words, "I don't have my older brother's talent for governing the village, nor do I have invincible strength, so I can only work harder."

Orochimaru nodded in agreement: "That's exactly what Minato would say. That kid is always so radiant, and he's got endless energy."

"Right, some people are born to be Hokage. Although you are strong, you don't have the talent to be Hokage."

Upon hearing this, Orochimaru was taken aback: "How do you know that?"

"Although you have prestige in the village, you are feared by many. The ninjas are afraid of you, and the villagers are also afraid of you because of your strange aura."

"A person like that is destined not to become Hokage. The image of Hokage is one that needs to be radiant and bring passion and hope to the villagers, just like a blazing flame."

Orochimaru lay on the rocking chair without saying a word, carefully pondering what Feng had said.

But did he really want to become Hokage? Not necessarily. He never really cared about the position of Hokage.

His only concern was why the old man hadn't chosen him.

Could it be that what the Hokage said is the reason?

Orochimaru himself couldn't figure it out, but what the Hokage said was right.

He's definitely not suited to be Hokage; he doesn't have the qualities of a leader.

It also lacks the ability to respond to the crowd gathered around it.

"That's really hurtful, Lord Tokifu."

"To be honest, I don't think you're that psychologically fragile."

Orochimaru chuckled a few times, his voice so hoarse that it gave even Toru a chill down his spine.

"Coming to see the world was definitely the right decision I made; it broadened my horizons."

Qu Feng turned to look at him: "Still planning to pursue immortality?"

Orochimaru nodded without hesitation: "Of course, this is my lifelong goal."

"I hope you still remember our promise."

Orochimaru immediately said, "I will not forget. I can guarantee that from now on, experiments will only be conducted with mountain bandits and outlaws, and will not harm the villagers of Konoha or the people of the Land of Fire."

Qu Feng nodded in satisfaction: "That's for the best. If what you say is true, you can ask me for help when you encounter difficulties."

Orochimaru's face immediately lit up with excitement upon hearing this: "Thank you, Lord Torifu."

Qu Feng was in a good mood. He actually had two ideas about Orochimaru. One was to completely sever his immortality.

Whether or not this can be done is another matter, but Orochimaru himself is extremely obsessed with scientific research.

If he isn't allowed to research immortality, he'll definitely find other directions to study.

Therefore, it is best to achieve the goal of preventing him from harming ordinary people in the Land of Fire.

There are countless bandits in the Land of Fire and wandering ninjas on the border.

Why not make use of these natural materials? They can also help eliminate threats to Konoha Village.

Besides, there are still White Zetsu, a full 100,000 of them. As long as we find their lair, we can acquire them continuously.

Furthermore, it can be replicated and cloned.

Such convenient and quick experimental subjects.

"Come meet someone with me tomorrow," Qu Feng said casually.

"Okay, can you tell me who it is?"

Qu Feng waved his hand: "It's a secret, but you can guess for yourself. Even if you guess right, I won't tell you."

This left Orochimaru somewhat helpless. If he guessed correctly but didn't tell him, how would Orochimaru know whether he had guessed correctly or not?

I might as well stop thinking about it too much and find out everything tomorrow.

Noon arrived quickly, and Chiri returned to find Torifu and Orochimaru chatting together.

Although she disliked Orochimaru, she didn't say much.

Noon arrived quickly, and Chiri returned to find Torifu and Orochimaru chatting together.

Although she disliked Orochimaru, she didn't say much.

She went back to the kitchen alone to cook.

Meanwhile, Kushina, who had been staying inside, came out with her large pregnant belly.

She's been in the house all morning and hasn't seen Minato Namikaze.

There might be some surprises during dinner.

"Orochimaru-nii? What brings you here?"

When Orochimaru heard Kushina call him "big brother," he was momentarily stunned. How come the generations were all messed up in this world?

However, after thinking it over, he realized that Minato of this world was not Jiraiya's apprentice, and that made sense.

Upon hearing this, the wind used clouds to lift Kushina up, allowing her to sit steadily and float around.

"Let me introduce you. This is Orochimaru from another world, visiting Konoha Village."

"Oh, it's Orochimaru from another world! Nice to meet you. I'm Kushina. Please take care of me."

Orochimaru reached out and grasped Kushina's hand: "Me too, it's nice to meet you, Kushina."

Just as the two separated, Minato and Anwa returned.

"Big brother, Kushina, you're both here, and Orochimaru is here too?"

Qu Feng then went on to explain it again.

Minato was quite surprised, but when he learned that his counterpart from another world had also come to Konoha, he was overjoyed.

"Oh, so this means I, from another world, can finally see our prosperous Konoha Village? I'll broaden his horizons."

Tofu was surprised to find that the usually honest Minato had this side to him.

"He's with the Senju clan. I'll go and bring him back in a moment."

In the two seconds it took to go back and forth, everyone had barely blinked twice when a person suddenly appeared beside them.

Minato Namikaze was still completely bewildered. One second he was playing a game, and the next he was suddenly in a different environment.

When he saw the people around him clearly, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Minato! We meet again!"

"Minato Namikaze, it's been a long time."

It's a wonderful feeling when two people with the same name call out each other's names and say "It's been so long!"

Even the two of them felt a little awkward.

"Kushina, this is Minato Namikaze from another world. You stayed in the room all morning, so you didn't see him."

Kushina was quite surprised; she hadn't expected to meet her husband from another world.

But shouldn't these be considered two people?

"Nice to meet you, Minato-kun. Please take care of me."

Minato Namikaze scratched his head: "I'm the guest, shouldn't I be the one being taken care of?"

Minato Namikaze joked for a moment, then said directly, "It's nice to meet you, Kushina."

That counts as saying hello.

Minato Namikaze looked at Kushina from the other world, and she was no different from his wife.

Parallel worlds are truly amazing.

Fortunately, this time was very safe, and Kushina didn't have to go through what happened that day.

On the night of the Nine-Tails' rampage, Minato Namikaze's nerves were highly focused and completely on edge.

He was terrified that even the slightest mistake might put Kushina in danger.

It was thanks to Brother Qufeng leading everyone to provide support that he and Kushina were able to survive on that battlefield.

The suspicious, mysterious masked man was not as strong as him, but every second he managed to hold him back was valuable.

If Konoha Village is damaged for even a second, Kushina's life will be in even greater danger.

But now, all of that is in the past.

The village returned to peace.

I can also wander around in another world.

This was a plot twist that Minato Namikaze could never have imagined or even conceived of before.

What kind of otherworldly travel is this? Even novels don't have this kind of plot.

Minato Namikaze is now truly standing on the land of another world, breathing its air.

He secretly decided that he would definitely bring Kushina and Naruto along to play next time.
