Could it be that he was hiding his true strength?

"...?"

Mitarashi Anko was dumbfounded.

Looking at the excessively handsome oil-skinned woman Zhihui in front of her, she really wanted to ask, "What kind of monster are you?"

If it's true, she can understand why Orochimaru would be interested.

For a moment, she couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.

Because she was once Orochimaru's apprentice.

But after he defected, he completely abandoned her.

Is it because she lacks talent?

"All right."

Oil Girl Zhihui dispelled the Palm Immortal Technique.

In the original work, Orochimaru treated Mitarashi Anko quite well.

Before he defected, he asked her if she would like to go with him.

But Mitarashi Anko refused.

So Orochimaru deleted that part of her memory.

Having lost her memory, Mitarashi Anko always believed that she had been abandoned.

Actually not.

"This matter must be reported to the Hokage."

Kakashi Hatake said with a serious expression, "I suggest that we suspend the Chunin Exams. Orochimaru is far too dangerous."

"No need."

Mitarashi Anko stood up and said, "His targets are Shiki and Sasuke."

"What did you say?"

Kakashi Hatake's expression changed drastically.

“He said it himself.”

Mitarashi Anko said with mixed emotions, "I know him, he wouldn't lie about something like this."

"Team 7, withdraw from the Chunin Exams immediately."

Kakashi Hatake replied without hesitation.

"no!"

Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha both refused.

"You have no idea how powerful Orochimaru is!"

Kakashi Hatake retorted sharply, "I'm your team leader, you have to listen to me!"

"Kakashi-sensei."

Aburame Shiki stopped Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha, who were still arguing, and said, "It would be better if we withdrew."

"why?"

Kakashi Hatake frowned and asked.

"Since we are Orochimaru's target, he will show up again as long as we continue to participate in the Chunin Exams."

Aburame Shiki explained, "If we withdraw, Orochimaru will be lurking in the shadows, which would actually be more dangerous."

Kakashi Hatake hesitated.

"Let the teacher decide."

"We still need to get to the tower, lest we miss out on first place," said Zhihui with a smile.

"Zhihui is right!"

Naruto Uzumaki chimed in, "Kakashi-sensei, you don't want Konoha to lose first place either, do you?"

"Kakashi, go see the Hokage."

Mitarashi Anko took a deep breath and said, "I will protect them."

"..."

Kakashi Hatake hesitated for a moment, then finally agreed.

"Walk."

Yu Nu Zhihui turned and headed towards the tower.

Many teams had laid in wait around the tower, but this time they encountered a tiger.

With a sliding tackle, it becomes a meal on the plate.

Class 7 successfully entered the tower.

Two in one.

Chapter 151 Speedrun Part 2 (First and Second Updates)

Hokage's office.

Tsunade reached out and rubbed her temples.

She looked out the window at the sky and sighed deeply.

When there are more people, there are more things to do.

With ninjas from various villages gathering, friction is inevitable.

As the organizer, Konoha had to mediate.

If not done well, it will not only affect the relationships between the ninja villages, but also damage Konoha's reputation.

In addition, there are various petty thefts encountered by the villagers.

However, matters involving villagers are handled by the Konoha Police Department.

Following Aburame Shiki's advice, the Uchiha clan divided the Konoha Police Department into two departments, and the results were immediate.

The ninja department remains the Konoha Police Department.

However, the department that deals with the villagers adapted to local customs and changed its name to Konoha Yorozuya (Leaf Leaf Yorozuya), specializing in handling the villagers' trivial matters.

The Konoha Yorozuya is not as oppressive as the Konoha Police Department, and its punishments are not as severe.

Once the matter is explained clearly, the villagers will accept it.

With the past as a comparison, Konoha's Yorozuya became very popular.

There was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

Tsunade put away her troubled expression and spoke with an air of authority.

"Hokage-sama."

Kakashi Hatake pushed open the door and entered, getting straight to the point, saying, "We've spotted Orochimaru in the Forest of Death."

Orochimaru?

Tsunade sat up straight instinctively, a look of surprise on her face.

Konoha lost track of Orochimaru's whereabouts a long time ago.

The most recent information I learned was from Itachi Uchiha that he had joined the Akatsuki organization.

But that was five years ago.

"His sudden return to Konoha must be for some purpose."

Tsunade looked puzzled and asked, "Have you investigated what his purpose is? The Forest of Death? Could it be related to the Chunin Exams?"

"According to Anko, it's Shiki and Sasuke."

Kakashi Hatake said with a solemn expression.

Zhihui?

Tsunade's heart tightened.

She had a bad feeling.

In particular, she thought of the bet she made with Yu Nu Zhi Hui.

Does this mean she's really going to win this time?

Although she always loses at gambling, she has actually won a few times.

But each time, the result was something she found hard to accept.

Thinking of this, Tsunade suddenly felt breathless.

No!

She cannot lose Zhihui, the oil lady.

"Orochimaru probably saw their talent."

Kakashi Hatake guessed.

He subconsciously looked up and was taken aback.

Why does the Hokage seem a little flustered?

This doesn't seem like Tsunade's personality.

Although Orochimaru is very powerful, she, as one of the Legendary Sannin, is no less so.

There's no reason to feel this way.
