Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 304 Orochimaru: Well done, Tsunade!

Orochimaru didn't actually want to come.

But after Jiraiya's letter arrived, he didn't know what he was thinking. Orochimaru from the other world had told him that once he arrived, he definitely wouldn't be able to leave easily. Yua was up to no good; once he came, he couldn't leave.

But he still came...

Although he thought he was very discreet, he was still discovered by Youya...

……

On this day, Yuya was comfortably enjoying the tea and wine that Jiraiya served him.

Just after finishing the toast, Yuya sensed Orochimaru.

Orochimaru used his transformation technique to become a doorman, but there was one thing he couldn't hide.

That's the smell.

Although his laboratory had many requirements and many projects had the highest and most stringent standards, he would always smell of disinfectant on him.

So here's the question.

Which doorman at Jiraiya's wedding would smell like that?

At first, Yuya thought it was from Tsunade, but then he realized that Tsunade hadn't been to the hospital for a month because she was trying to conceive a third child. So, Tsunade shouldn't have this kind of smell on her since she hadn't been to the hospital.

But the smell is still there.

Then Youya noticed that the gatekeeper was acting strangely.

The main thing is that while the other guards would glance over here more or less, Orochimaru not only didn't glance over, but he also remained completely calm.

If this were just an ordinary security guard, it would be a miracle.

After all, the person who came to be the elder of this newlywed couple was the current Hokage.

The other guards' expressions shifted from curiosity to shock to reverence. But you, the only guard, remained completely unmoved. It would be strange if you weren't up to something.

So Yuya cornered Orochimaru.

After Jiraiya and Himiko finished their toasts, they went to the wedding banquet. Not only that, although there were few people, the newlyweds also had to toast.

Not only that, the two of them also had to walk around three streets. Since Himiko had married into the family from Nadeshiko Village, and her family home was far away, the newlyweds had to walk around three times together. Moreover, the time couldn't be too short; it would be best to walk for an hour and come back. In any case, Jiraiya and Himiko wouldn't be able to relax all day.

As for Yua, he and Tsunade only needed to present Himiko and Jiraiya with a pair of custom-made rings at the end of all the procedures and personally put them on their fingers. At other times, Yua and Tsunade could rest.

—The story goes that this custom originally stemmed from the fact that the elders of both sides of the marriage, whether parents or relatives, were all elderly. That's why the requirements for the elders were so low. After all, if older people were to go through all that trouble like the newlyweds, wouldn't that turn a joyous occasion into a tragedy?

That's why there's such relaxed courtesy towards those sitting in high places—

However, it's now cheaper to travel to Asia.

Yuya grinned maliciously after capturing Orochimaru...

……

The scene shifts again, and Orochimaru sighs as he sits in the hall where Jiraiya and Himiko just held their ceremony.

"I'm only here to offer my simple congratulations to Jiraiya. I don't want to stay," Orochimaru said to Yua and Tsunade.

You Ya laughed. "Little brat, you think you can just run away now that you're here?"

You better come back and continue as the head of the R&D department!

Tsunade laughed too, but Yua couldn't laugh anymore as soon as she opened her mouth: "I said Orochimaru, you're still as arrogant as you were when you were a kid."

What do you take your older brother for? Does Konoha not function without you? And you're even hiding from us?!

Tsunade was indeed angry.

But it was anger stemming from emotions.

She was disappointed because she thought Orochimaru hadn't come.

After all, the three of them grew up together since childhood.

As a result, after she married Yua, Orochimaru was driven out of the village, and Jiraiya went out to find that damned prophetic child and never came back.

Now Jiraiya is back and getting married again, but Orochimaru still hasn't returned...

Of course she was angry.

That's why she said that.

Youya stood there dumbfounded. "Hey, wife, don't talk nonsense!"

The R&D department with Orochimaru is definitely a different story from the R&D department without Orochimaru!

I was really hoping Orochimaru would give me 4G!

Once the internet speed reaches 4G, many things will change dramatically. For example, video platforms and video calling functions will be greatly improved.

As for Konoha Village now, Yua can probably just create a mini-meta, but don't even think about making anything like League of Legends or Counter-Strike.

Because the internet speed isn't up to standard, as for infrastructure...

When Youya built the house, he left a wire, but it has been used as a telephone line for the past ten years.

Speaking of...

In Yuya's previous life, telephone lines could indeed access the internet... but only for conducting related business, and the internet speed back then... was so slow it was infuriating.

Oh, right, that's just something that seemed slow when I looked back at the time.

In reality, Yuya was having a blast at the time.

At least we can chat on QQ.

You Ya still remembers that her original online name was something like "Who Understands My Pain" written in Martian language.

It can only be said that youthful arrogance must be guarded against. If this dark history were to become known, Yu Ya's innocence would be ruined for life.

Hmm, I'm getting ahead of myself. The most important thing right now is for Tsunade to get rid of her League of Legends and Counter-Strike players!

"Ahem, Tsunade, actually, Orochimaru is to Konoha..."

Tsunade looked at Yua: "Isn't that right? This big Konoha can't function without him?"

You Ya raised his hands in surrender: "You can't say that, but..."

But with his help, the progress will definitely be faster...

"That's it." Tsunade said, hands on her hips, looking very serious.

You Ya: "..."

Orochimaru never expected such a dramatic turn of events, and he quickly nodded to Tsunade, confirming that it was indeed the case.

I don't care if you call me trash, as long as you don't make me come back.

Why?

Orochimaru is currently the head of the research institute in the Land of Grass. Although he has to worry about funding every month, since Yua gives him a fixed subsidy of one billion yen a year, he has to earn more on his own.

But freedom!

He returned to Konoha, went back to that research and development department, and then got used by Yuya?

Back then, Orochimaru was young and arrogant, unaware of the importance of his body. He spent his days doing Yuya's work and his nights working on his biological experiments. He was the type to get up earlier than the chickens and go to bed later than the dogs.

It's only because they were young and had a strong body that they were able to withstand the strain.

If he had been in slightly worse health back then, he probably wouldn't be alive today...
