Konoha: From the moment I was adopted by Tsunade

Chapter 9 Orochimaru who stole Danzo's man

Why do I feel he's so weak?

Orochimaru stared at the spot where Natsume had disappeared, a question arising in his mind.

He felt no threat from the two wooden clones.

It's like being a low-ranking ninja.

But is it possible for someone with the strength of a genin to know so many secrets?

Obviously it is impossible.

The only remaining explanation is that he was feigning weakness to obscure his true strength.

"A troublesome fellow."

Orochimaru's wariness of Natsume increased once again.

This person is extremely dangerous.

You must not be careless when dealing with him.

Next up is Shimura Danzo.

A dangerous glint flashed in Orochimaru's eyes.

He and Danzo Shimura were collaborators.

The two people held each other's secrets.

Once it explodes, even if it doesn't kill you, you'll still be badly injured.

Thus, the two achieved a rare balance.

But Orochimaru is furious now.

Wood Release, thanks to Hashirama Senju, became the strongest Kekkei Genkai, and it was also the first Kekkei Genkai he acquired.

Even the Sharingan has to be placed second.

Orochimaru could not tolerate Shimura Danzo's betrayal.

Simply confronting them face-to-face will probably be useless.

Unless he arrests Danzo Shimura.

Orochimaru plans to infiltrate Root himself to investigate.

With his abilities, he won't be discovered.

Even at the root.

He could have sent someone to investigate.

However, he was worried about alerting the enemy.

It's safer to do it yourself.

Without any hesitation, Orochimaru immediately went to Root.

Under the cover of night, his stealth was almost flawless, and no one noticed.

The roots contain many secret bases.

Orochimaru and Shimura Danzo had worked closely together on Wood Release, so he was quite clear about it.

Furthermore, Natsume had already told the survivor that his code name was A.

In other words, he is now a member of the Roots.

The scope has been reduced.

All you need to do is check the training base at the root.

Orochimaru released his swarm of snakes.

Not long after, a goal was set.

The northern part of Konoha Village.

Orochimaru walked into the building.

This is one of the bases for root training.

As the most powerful organization in Konoha, Root's training is extremely brutal.

It is enough to turn any member into a powerful tool without any emotion.

They brought out the essence of ninjas to its fullest extent.

Naruto is a so-called shonen manga.

But putting aside Naruto Uzumaki, ninjas are ruthless killers.

For the sake of the mission and the ninja village, they can kill anyone without any principles, whether it's a woman, a child, or a baby.

If ninjas really existed as a profession, I'd run as far away as possible.

There were quite a few people inside the building.

Orochimaru quickly identified a member.

Yamato, who is ten years old.

He was very patient and followed him until he used the Wood Release ninjutsu.

"It's really true?"

Orochimaru was startled.

The mysterious man was not lying.

But that's just a little secret.

What is that big secret?

Is there anything more valuable than Wood Release?

Orochimaru was immediately filled with intense curiosity.

As for Yamato, he simply stole it without making a sound.

the next day.

Natsume sensed the vibration of the Destiny Ring and thus woke up.

Because of your actions, Yamato's fate has changed; you have gained 90 Fate Points.

Ninety points means that Yamato's fate has deviated drastically from the original storyline.

It would be difficult for him to rejoin the Dark Division.

Natsume stroked his chin, thinking of something.

Yamato will later become Naruto's mentor.

The reason is that Wood Release can suppress the Nine-Tails within him.

"Could I use this opportunity to get closer to Naruto Uzumaki?"

Natsume thought about it and realized it was quite possible.

Because at that time, Tsunade was already the Hokage.

She knew he possessed Wood Release.

Having gained Fate Points, Natsume's most desired exchange is for a Celestial Body.

Sage Body combined with Wood Release—a perfect match!

Unfortunately, ninety points of destiny is too few.

Natsume exchanged for the Wood Release talent because of a 90% discount for beginners; its original price was 900 Fate Points.

If you directly exchange for Wood Release, it will require 2,000 Fate Points, which is almost double the amount.

The Sage Body is even more precious than Wood Release, worth 3,900 Fate Points.

"Take your time."

Natsume wasn't in a hurry; he was only seven years old, so he had plenty of time.

Now, enjoy Tsunade's love.

"Good morning, Natsume."

Tsunade was busy in the kitchen when she saw Natsume. She stopped what she was doing, looked up, and gave him a bright smile.

Natsume was immediately in a good mood.

A beautiful day begins!

To be honest, how could you not be happy if you woke up to a beautiful woman smiling at you?

"Natsume, it's time to take your medicine."

Suddenly, silence appeared.

Natsume's smile froze instantly.

You naughty older sister.

He picked up the bowl, drank it down in a few gulps, then ran up to Tsunade, opened his mouth, and his meaning was clear: I want candy.

"Natsume, you take it yourself, I don't have time."

Tsunade was busy making rice balls and couldn't free her hands.

Natsume was slightly taken aback.

At his current height, his eyes were perfectly aligned with Tsunade's waist.

It just doesn't have pockets.

Where should I put it?

Natsume finally settled on the black cloth belt around her waist.

There's nothing showing right now, so it's under the apron.

He reached out his hand, groped around, and sure enough, he found the candy.

In addition, it has a warm touch.

It is the body temperature that is transmitted through clothing.

Tsunade glanced at it subconsciously, but didn't pay any attention to it.

Her personality is not that of an ordinary little girl; she is not shy about being touched.

Besides, Natsume isn't an outsider.

After eating the sugar, the bitter taste in my mouth disappeared.

Natsume ran to the hall and waited for dinner to be served.

Jingyin was reading a book to the side.

This has become her norm lately.

"I'll take you to school today."

After finishing her meal, Tsunade said, "Shizune, you can stay and continue studying."

Since she had already promised Natsume, she wouldn't stop him.

Moreover, after starting school, she had even more time to gamble.

Then I can teach him properly in the evening.

Natsume is quite looking forward to going to school.

I hope to encounter characters from the storyline so I can gain Fate Points.

It's just that his timing is not ideal.

Naruto Uzumaki and the other Konoha Twelve will have to wait another six years before they can go to school.

Kakashi's generation has already graduated four or five years ago.

Natsume is stuck in the middle, so he encounters relatively few characters in the story.

Konoha Ninja Academy.

We didn't suffer too much during the Nine-Tailed Fox's rampage, and after half a month of rest, classes resumed today.

Natsume will be a transfer student and become a student in Class 1-A.

"Lady Tsunade."

Naoto Yamanaka, the teacher of Class 1-A, said warmly, "I have already received the notification. Don't worry, I will take good care of Natsume."

Tsunade nodded.

Natsume is nominally her apprentice.

Few people dare to bully him.

"Natsume, I'll pick you up after school."

Tsunade patted his head and then turned and left.

"Natsume, my name is Naoto Yamanaka. You can call me teacher from now on."

Naoto Yamanaka said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go see your classmates."

As a transfer student, Natsume is essentially a freshman and can't escape the classic self-introduction.

"Hello everyone, my name is Natsume. I don't have any other hobbies, I just want to live a peaceful life."

A seemingly ordinary sentence has still attracted a lot of attention.

Because he is good-looking.

Many little girls were staring intently at him.

"Natsume, you can sit in the last row by the window."

Naoto Yamanaka patted him on the shoulder and said, "Your deskmate is Uchiha Itachi. He's the top student in our grade. You'll learn a lot from him."

This was clearly a special arrangement made because of his status as Tsunade's apprentice.

But Natsume froze on the spot.

He never expected that his deskmate was Uchiha Itachi.

I can come up with titles, hahaha.
