This Water Shadow is very strong, but overly cautious.

"Do you think these feelings are just your initial inability to adapt to this body?

"wrong!"

"This is the repulsion between your soul and this incompatible body. If nothing unexpected happens, this body you're inhabiting can only carry your soul for two to three years at most."

Mizunoe Ryosuke said this with a deep look in his eyes, his pair of dark eyes seemed to be able to see through everything. Under such a look, Orochimaru finally couldn't bear it anymore.

Mizunoe Ryosuke's words had touched upon the biggest secret in his heart. In shock and anger, Orochimaru chose to attack with hatred.

"nonsense!"

"go to hell!!!"

Secret technique. Shadow snake hand!

At that moment, Orochimaru raised his arm with a somewhat stiff movement, and then his arm turned into a densely packed poisonous snake, biting Mizunoe Ryosuke on the opposite side frantically.

In response to this, Mizunoe Ryosuke just shook his head lightly, as if he didn't care.

He just stood there motionless, allowing the dense swarm of poisonous snakes to bite him.

Seeing this, Orochimaru's eyes flashed with cruelty. Whoever knew his secret would die!!!

Seeing that Mizunoe Ryosuke was about to die at the hands of a snake, the smile on Orochimaru's face suddenly froze.

Because Mizunoe Ryosuke, who should have been torn to pieces by the poisonous snake, turned into ripples and disappeared in front of his eyes, leaving his shadow snake hand empty-handed.

Illusion!!!!

He didn't know when it started, but he had fallen into an illusion!

For a moment, cold sweat broke out on Orochimaru's back, and he immediately used the method of breaking illusions to break his own illusion.

"Shh!"

Suddenly, the scene around him changed.

There was no longer any voice of Mizunoe Ryosuke in front of him, only empty air.

In the illusion, he was attacking Mizunoe Ryosuke; but in reality, he was actually fighting wits and courage with the air.

"asshole!"

Orochimaru turned all his anger into a curse.

Fear, panic, anger, shock

The mixture of emotions had made Orochimaru completely lose his composure.

It was clear from his panicked move before that he was indeed confused.

"What's the rush, Orochimaru?"

"I don't have any ill will towards you, I just want to talk to you."

The nonchalant voice appeared in Orochimaru's ears again. Orochimaru turned around abruptly and looked at Mizunoe Ryosuke who was still looking at him with a faint smile behind him. A hint of coldness flashed in his snake eyes again.

He first checked his own condition and made sure that he was not disturbed by the illusion before questioning again.

"who are you?"

"What is your purpose?"

After a missed attack, Orochimaru finally calmed down a little.

No matter when, strength is the capital of speaking.

Mizunoe Ryosuke's magic, which was so subtle that no one could detect it, revealed a glimpse of his own strength. This strength also made Orochimaru think of taking action in case of a catastrophe.

In addition, when he was under the illusion, Mizunoe Ryosuke did not choose to attack him, which also made Orochimaru hesitate about his attitude towards Mizunoe Ryosuke.

Because the two sides resumed negotiations and communication once again.

"who am I?"

Mizunoe Ryosuke said with a smile, a gleam in his eyes. He did not intend to hide his identity. There was actually nothing wrong with revealing his identity to Orochimaru.

After all, no matter what you want to talk about, strength is always the most fundamental factor.

Appropriately demonstrating one's strength is also a basic means of negotiation.

As he spoke, Mizunoe Ryosuke revealed the ring with the word "water" engraved on the middle finger of his left hand without any concealment.

Not only that, Mizunoe Ryosuke no longer suppressed his aura and released all his energy.

The powerful aura caused Orochimaru's pupils to shrink violently. At this moment, according to Orochimaru's snake instinct, the Mizunoe Ryosuke in front of him had lost his "human" posture and completely turned into a prehistoric giant beast.

At this moment, Orochimaru understood clearly.

Not to mention that he is in extremely bad shape and is at a low point now, even if he is in his peak condition, he will never be a match for the man in front of him.

At the same time, Orochimaru also noticed the ring with the word "water" engraved on Mizunoe Ryosuke's finger.

As a disciple of the Third Hokage, Orochimaru naturally knew what this ring meant.

"The Fourth Mizukage?!"

Orochimaru said in disbelief. Although it was a question, Orochimaru's tone was very certain.

In response, Mizunoe Ryosuke did not refute and agreed with Orochimaru's words.

"As for the purpose?"

"Didn't I say before that I just wanted to talk to you."

Mizunoe Ryosuke's expression remained unchanged, and his voice remained calm. However, given his status as the Fourth Mizukage and his immense power, Orochimaru had to take his words seriously this time.

Chapter 459: The Ice Thick Thick Wasn’t Formed in a Day

Hearing this, Orochimaru was silent for a moment, and his snake eyes regained their composure once again.

Now that the other party has revealed his identity, even though he is not familiar with the Mizukage and knows very little about him, at least he is no longer like a blind man and a fool allowing the other party to tease him.

"What did you wish to discuss, Mizukage-sama?"

"Could it be that you want to talk to me about the group of Rain Ninjas out there?"

Orochimaru asked coldly, with a strange gleam in his snake pupils.

After calming down, Orochimaru regained his heroic spirit and began to test Mizunoe Ryosuke with words.

He tried to use the Rain Ninja to test the purpose of Mizunoe Ryosuke's appearance here.

After all, the dignified Mizukage suddenly appeared alone in the Rain Country. No matter how you look at it, there must be something fishy going on.

Hearing this, Mizunoe Ryosuke shook his head calmly, not falling into the trap, and kept silent about the matter of the Rain Ninja.

He knew very well that Orochimaru was using the Rain Ninja to test him.

"Can you tell me the name of that technique?"

Mizunoe Ryosuke looked directly into Orochimaru's eyes and did not choose to answer Orochimaru's words. Instead, he directly focused the topic on Orochimaru himself.

Mizunoe Ryosuke certainly knew that Orochimaru's secret reincarnation technique was called "Fushigan Tensei", and he asked this question out of testing.

Orochimaru fell silent again.

"Reincarnation without corpse."

For some reason, perhaps as if by some mysterious force, Orochimaru still answered Mizunoe Ryosuke's question.

Seeing this, Mizunoe Ryosuke's mouth corners slightly raised, but the arc was so subtle that it was barely noticeable.

"You are a talent, Orochimaru."

"The forbidden technique of eternal life" is impossible to find in Konoha."

Mizunoe Ryosuke said slowly, revealing the secret deep in Orochimaru's heart that he didn't want to be revealed.

After having his secrets revealed to him by Mizunoe Ryosuke one after another, Orochimaru has gone from being initially surprised and shocked to being somewhat numb now.

Since the other party can see through the purpose and shortcomings of Reincarnation at a glance, it is not difficult to guess Orochimaru's purpose from this.

But Orochimaru didn't know how to respond to Mizunoe Ryosuke's words for a moment.

At this moment, Orochimaru felt somewhat caught in a dilemma.

Whether advancing or retreating, he was now completely controlled by the other party.

He has only two choices.

If he chose to fight, he would be no match for the opponent based on his aura. Even if Orochimaru was confident in his own strength, his current poor condition meant that he couldn't fully exert his fighting power.

On the other hand, the opponent not only has unfathomable strength, but also seems to know his current condition very well.

"Taking a step back" and choosing to "talk" in accordance with the other party's request would basically mean that Orochimaru would be directly crushed.

Every word of Mizunoe Ryosuke pierced Orochimaru's heart, but Orochimaru was not at all bothered by Mizunoe Ryosuke's temptation.

How can we talk about this?

The most important thing is that Mizunoe Ryosuke has now discovered Orochimaru's scandal and has the "handle" of Orochimaru in his hand.

I can’t beat him, and I can’t win the argument.

Even if he wanted to run, Orochimaru wouldn't dare to do so easily.

People say that snakes have seven inches. There is no doubt that Orochimaru's "seven inches" is now firmly in the hands of Mizunoe Ryosuke.

In fact, you can understand it if you just think about it a little.

Freezing three feet is not a day's cold.

The current Orochimaru is far from being as reckless as he was after his defection. He can "spit" whatever he wants and kill whomever he wants.

As a disciple of Hokage with an extremely glorious image in Konoha, he still needs to take into account some impacts, such as the reputation of Konoha and the third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Orochimaru has studied a series of forbidden techniques, such as the "man spitting snakes, spitting people spitting snakes" technique, and techniques like the Reincarnation Technique that allows one to occupy the body of another for one's own use. Konoha will never allow such things to be exposed to the light of day.

It is a fact that Orochimaru has now developed the "Reincarnation without Corpse". Once such an evil forbidden technique is exposed, even if Sarutobi Hiruzen protects Orochimaru, he must be dealt with seriously.

After all, Konoha is the representative of light and majesty. How could it study such evil secret techniques?

If such a scandal were to be exposed, it would deal a huge blow to the reputation of Orochimaru and the Third Hokage. Not only that, even Jiraiya and Tsunade might be implicated.

No matter what his deep-down purpose was, there was no doubt that Orochimaru still had some ambitions for the position of Hokage.

He would never tolerate his own scandal being exposed, which would affect his future inability to succeed the position of Hokage.

"what on earth do you want?"

Finally, Orochimaru began to speak. He could no longer remain silent like this.

Mizunoe Ryosuke's ambiguous attitude is like the sword of Darkness hanging over his head. Although it has not fallen yet, who can say for sure when this sword will strike him in the throat?

So he had to figure out what the attitude of the Fourth Mizukage was right now.

Hearing Orochimaru say this, Mizunoe Ryosuke knew that his goal had been achieved.

Orochimaru is a smart man and has figured out the ins and outs of this matter, and what he said means one thing.

Orochimaru compromised!

"I don't want to do anything."

"On the contrary, to be honest, I admire you very much and feel that you are underutilized in Konoha."

"I just want to tell you that I can give you what Konoha can't give you."

"Including helping you achieve that immature idea of ​​immortality."

At this point, the meaning behind Mizunoe Ryosuke's words has become clear. It is obvious that he is trying to recruit Orochimaru.

Even Orochimaru did not expect such a change to happen. A hint of surprise appeared in his cold snake eyes.

·· ····Request flowers··· ····

There is no greater twist and turn than this.

Mizunoe Ryosuke's conditions are quite good, and one of them is the one that is most likely to excite Orochimaru - immortality!

Since Mizunoe Ryosuke could see through the immaturity of his Non-Corpse Reincarnation at a glance, Orochimaru had reason to believe that Mizunoe Ryosuke had gone further than him on this path.

But even so, it is impossible for Orochimaru to give up everything in Konoha and follow Mizunoe Ryosuke with just one sentence.

Words are not enough. How could Orochimaru trust Mizunoe Ryosuke just based on a few simple words?

Here, Orochimaru's goal is to become Hokage. With his ambition, how could he be willingly recruited by Mizunoe Ryosuke at this moment?
