Soon, Tenzo brought Sasuke to the Hokage's office and reported everything to Tsunade.

Everyone in that stronghold was basically wiped out, and the only survivor was Jugo brought back by Sasuke.

And Sasuke will also tell the reason for keeping Jugo, his experience and the value of him.

"Well, Eagle, are you sure you can restrain the other party's rage?" Tsunade asked after thinking for a while.

"I'm sure, to be precise, the seal that Xia Li gave me is specifically designed to target the energy that makes the opponent go berserk, so I only need to be by my side to absorb the energy to suppress the opponent's rampage. ." Sasuke replied.

"That guy arranged the seal, so that should be no problem." Tsunade nodded after hearing Xia Li's name.

"In that case, let him be temporarily included in your team, but to officially join the team, he needs to serve a crime, which means to prove that the Orochimaru stronghold he newly reported is real and not a trap."

"Yes." Sasuke also nodded. Although he did not see this from the other party's memory, he believed that the other party would not lie to him, and those memories would not lie to others.

"Also, although there is a high probability that Xia Li's seal will be fine, you can't take it lightly. Stop if you have physical problems." Tsunade said seriously.

Sasuke was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes."

Then, a few days later.

Tsunade rubbed her forehead and looked at the people in front of her, Tenzo and...Sasuke. At this time, Tsunade had already finished listening to their report on the southern stronghold.

Well, that's right, within the past few days, the mission of the southern stronghold was also solved, but to Tsunade's helplessness, Sasuke picked up another person.

The frequency of picking people up will soon catch up with Naruto's.

It's just that the people Naruto picked up didn't stay in the end, and the people Sasuke picked up will soon join Konoha.

"So, the girl named Karin was the one you rescued during the Chunin Exam. Then she chose to join Orochimaru in order to escape from the Kusagakure. Now that she met you, you brought her back?" Tsunade asked Sasuke.

"Yes." Sasuke didn't know what to say at this time. This mission was very strange.

As soon as he entered the stronghold, he was discovered by Xianglin, who then ran up to him and recognized him regardless of his...

And Sasuke also remembered that incident. He did save her in the Chunin Exam.

Sasuke also asked Kaoru why she wanted to seek refuge with Orochimaru. The other party's answer was that although she wanted to find Sasuke, Sasuke was from Konoha. Even if she wanted to seek refuge with Sasuke, it would not work.

Because Konoha is a big country, if the Grass Ninja Village wants someone, then Konoha will most likely not keep her, so when she wants to leave the Grass Ninja Village, she can only seek refuge with Orochimaru.

Therefore, Sasuke didn't know what to do. Killing him was not suitable, so he could only bring the other person back.

"Bring her here, I need to ask something." Tsunade said, rubbing her aching temples. She originally thought that Sasuke was more reliable than Naruto, but... she suddenly realized that he was not much better.

"Yes." After Tianzang answered, he asked someone to bring Xiang Lin up.

"Let me go, I will leave by myself!" Xianglin cursed and walked into the Hokage's office.

After she saw Sasuke, her expression suddenly changed, and she quickly ran to Sasuke's side. The ferocious expression she had just flown to nowhere, and she looked like a nymphomaniac.

"Sasuke! If you still can't keep me, then please let Sasuke kill me with his own hands!"

Suddenly, Sasuke took a step back silently, while Tsunade looked at Xiang Rin's long red hair, and remembered what happened to Sasuke when she was first discovered, and her heart moved...

"We haven't decided what to do with you yet, so can you tell us why you want to leave the Grass Ninja Village?" Tsunade asked first.

"Who are you..." Xianglin looked at Tsunade a little impatiently, and then felt that the other party seemed a little angry, and said immediately, "Okay."

Then, Xianglin also told the reason why he left the Grass Ninja Village.

She has never been regarded as a person in the Grass Ninja Village, let alone a ninja. Her only role in the Grass Ninja Village is to help others recover chakra and injuries.

Xianglin's mother was also treated in the same way, and she died of chakra exhaustion due to excessive absorption.

If she had stayed in the Grass Ninja Village, what awaited her would be the same ending as her mother.

So in order to survive, she had been thinking about how to escape from the Grass Ninja Village. In the end, she waited until the Chunin Examination held in Konoha, which was beyond the reach of the Grass Ninja Village, and it was also her best chance.

Even when she got separated from her companions in the Grass Ninja Village, it was intentional. Unfortunately, her combat power was too low and she was almost killed by a bear. Fortunately, she was saved by Sasuke who was passing by.

"So, if you also want to take advantage of my physique, that's fine, as long as I can be by Sasuke's side, and you can use the rest of the time as you want."

Xianglin said a little impatiently. She didn't think the other party would be indifferent after hearing about her physique. The final result would probably be to return to her previous life, so she could use her physique to fight for some of the benefits she wanted. Bar.

"Sure enough, you are a survivor of the Uzumaki clan." Tsunade sighed after hearing this. The method of discovering Sasuke was probably the same Kagura mind as her grandmother.

"The Uzumaki clan?" Xianglin was a little confused.

Sasuke's eyes narrowed because he thought of his companion Uzumaki Naruto from this surname.

"That's right, a country that used to be very friendly with Konoha, but because the sealing technique was too powerful, it was feared by all countries and led to extinction. The country of Whirlpool, I didn't expect that there are still some tribesmen left outside of Konoha." Tsunade sighed.

"If it's already destroyed, what's the use?" Xianglin complained.

"Haha, little girl, have you seen the costumes of Konoha's Jonin?"

"Of course." Xianglin was a little confused.

"The red pattern on the back of the Jounin of Konoha is the emblem of the Uzumaki clan of the Kingdom of Uzumaki. So what is the connection between the Uzumaki clan and Konoha?" Tsunade asked with a smile.

"So, if the Grass Ninja Village finds out that I'm asking you for help, you won't hand me over?" Xianglin didn't want to pay attention to those things, but to focus on his own interests.

"Of course I won't hand it over, but..." Tsunade paused.

"But what? You don't want me to contribute my physique, right? If Sasuke is here, I can't do it..." Xiang Rin looked at the squatting Tsunade and sneered inwardly. Sure enough, the people at the top are just ordinary people. .

"This is not necessary. Someone may use it in the future, but you may only be needed for injuries that are difficult to heal with medical ninjutsu. Of course, even so, you must agree." Tsunade said.

"Really?" Xianglin showed a suspicious expression. In her opinion, this treatment was so good that it was a bit false.

"Of course it's true. What I just said is just to let you remember that you discovered your distant relative Uzumaki Naruto in Konoha, so you came to seek refuge with Uzumaki Naruto, and your name from now on is Uzumaki Kaori "In this case, even if the Grass Ninja Village comes to ask for someone, we have every reason to keep you," Tsunade said with a smile.

"Huh? That's it, no problem. From today on, I will be Uzumaki Kaoru." Kaoru's eyes lit up and he nodded directly, not caring about this at all.

At this time, Xianglin's voice also became softer, because she realized that her life might really be different in the future.

Of course, she didn't believe it blindly. After all, it was just talk now. Who knew whether the other party would change his mind later.

Shizune looked at this scene with a smile, and laughed even harder after hearing Tsunade's words. She knew that Tsunade would definitely not hand over Gosuka Rin, but if it was before, there would probably be nothing that happened later.

But Lady Tsunade is now also influenced by Lady Xia Li, so she added the method that Lady Xia Li liked most in the past, standing on the basis of righteousness, and no one can use this to accuse her.

"Sasuke, Uzumaki Kaori's identity is still in doubt, so the person you brought back will be given to you to guard for a period of time." Tsunade said at this time.

"No, Hokage-sama?! My identity has always been in doubt, so can you remove this paragraph and let Sasuke keep an eye on me!" Sasuke had not replied yet, but Xiang Rin's eyes were already shining, and he felt comfortable looking at Tsunade. A lot.

At this time, she was finally willing to believe that what Tsunade just said was true! How could such a good person lie to her!

Sasuke didn't know what to say for a moment. Looking at Xianglin, he always felt that the other party might be more troublesome than Sakura...

However, he did bring the other party back, so Tsunade's mission was completely fine, so in the end Sasuke could only respond helplessly.

"Yes."

Chapter 190 Shadows in the Dark

In a dark room with an unknown location, there was a figure sitting there looking at the information in his hand.

While this man was watching, he was asking himself questions. This picture was a bit creepy.

"Lord Orochimaru, our two strongholds in the Land of Fire have been cleared by Konoha." Kabuto said in surprise.

"Ah, yes, but they were originally two abandoned strongholds. If they are cleaned up, they should be cleaned up." Orochimaru also said this with that body.

The same body produced completely different sounds, which only meant that Kabuto and Orochimaru spoke in completely different ways.

"It's just that I'm a little curious about how Konoha found those two strongholds." Orochimaru licked his lips in curiosity.

After all, those two strongholds are not only hidden, but also located on inconspicuous 'uninhabited' islands. Generally speaking, it is difficult to be discovered unless someone deliberately leaks it.

"Maybe someone betrayed and escaped from inside and notified Konoha." Kabuto also felt that these two strongholds should not be discovered. One might be a coincidence, but there must be a reason for the two to be together.

"Tsk, tsk, it doesn't matter, and it seems that my old friend also gave me a surprise." Orochimaru looked at the information written in blood on the back and smiled.

"Lord Orochimaru, can Danzo of Konoha be trusted?" Kabuto also saw the following content, which was information about Danzo's request for cooperation in dealing with Xia Li.

"Of course we can believe it, that old guy. When Xia Li became the quasi-Sixth Hokage, Danzo became our most loyal ally." Orochimaru licked his lips and continued to smile, as if he was thinking about something. Laughing at something.

"Is that so..." Kabuto stretched out his hand to hold his glasses, and then suddenly paused. Then he remembered that this body had been changed, and this body did not need to wear glasses.

In order to separate from him, Lord Orochimaru used Fuzo Reincarnation to change his body, but the result was naturally a failure.

It should be said that the ninjutsu of Fuzo Reincarnation was successful. They successfully changed their bodies, but the souls of the two people were not separated and were still entangled.

This state also made Orochimaru a little helpless, and he also found matters involving the soul to be very difficult.

After all, the slightest touch of this thing is torture, and if you are not careful, the whole person will disappear directly from this world, so now, Orochimaru has accepted the same body as Kabuto.

"Haha, that old guy won't give up the position of Hokage easily." A very cold look suddenly appeared in Orochimaru's eyes. At that time, when he was about to run for Hokage, Danzo really came to him from behind. One stabbing blow, and it stabbed him directly into the abyss.

Even now, Orochimaru's memory is still fresh in his mind.

"And it seems that this old guy wanted to repeat White Fang's incident, but instead helped Xia Li. How stupid is he to think that Tsunade will be like the third generation? And Xia Li is not White Fang, he He is not seeking death, he is really stupid." Orochimaru mocked him extremely.

However, while he was mocking, Orochimaru was also a little surprised by Tsunade's choice. Even as Tsunade's former companion, he actually did not expect that Tsunade would make such a choice.

Do you really not care about Hokage's position that much?

"But even so, why did Danzo choose to cooperate with us? And it seems that he has been looking for us for a long time." Kabuto continued to ask what he was puzzled about.

"Of course it's because he has no way to deal with Xia Li. The other party's momentum has been established. Coupled with Tsunade's cooperation, ordinary smearing has no effect on Xia Li." Orochimaru said but couldn't help it. laughed.

"So, if Danzo wants to become the Sixth Hokage, then he can only choose to get rid of Xia Li. However, Xia Li who possesses the Flying Thunder God is not something he can get rid of if he wants. So he can only choose to get rid of Xia Li. Find someone to cooperate with, and by chance, I’m probably the one with the most solutions among the people he knows.”

"I see. Orochimaru-sama, do we want to cooperate with Danzo?" Kabuto asked.

"Of course, why don't you cooperate? This is a good opportunity to get rid of that bastard guy." Orochimaru responded, his eyes cold.

"Does Orochimaru already have a way to deal with Xia Li?" Kabuto was a little surprised. They had been together all this time, but he had no clue about how to deal with Xia Li.

"Hmph, of course not." Orochimaru snorted coldly, and a hint of haze flashed in his eyes. The opponent's unrestricted Flying Thunder God really made him feel troublesome.

"Then why?" Kabuto became even more confused.

"First of all, it doesn't mean that there is no way to cooperate if there is no way to deal with Xia Li. We just need to make Danzo think that we have a way." Orochimaru looked at the moonlight outside and continued.

"Besides, if we can't deal with it, there are others who can deal with it? Kabuto, you know that, right? That organization."

"But, Orochimaru-sama, haven't you already separated from that organization?" Kabuto frowned.

"Tsk tsk, how can there be any eternal enemies? Can't they cooperate after being separated? As long as their goal is still the tailed beast, they can't avoid the Nine-Tails, and the Nine-Tails has the mark of Xia Li's Flying Thunder God. As long as they will Tell them this news, how do you think they will choose?"
