Naruto: The Strongest Force

Uchiha, the current clan leader, and Fugaku can be said to be two extremes.

Orochimaru had a sick smile on his face: "It's a pity that he missed a move."

The third generation looked at Orochimaru's look and knew that Orochimaru already had a solution in his mind.

"Orochimaru, what is your countermeasure?"

Orochimaru said confidently: "Now that Kumogakure has sent a large number of people to Kirigakure, my hometown must be empty."

"Old man, now you just need to open an opening for Iwagakure so that some people can pass through. It doesn't need to be too many, about two hundred."

"Uchiha went to the Shikoku Road just to prevent Iwagakure from borrowing the road. Then the two sides will definitely fight."

"No matter who wins or loses, Uchiha or Iwagakure, it will be in Konoha's favor."

"Once the Uchiha people show up, they won't be so threatening."

"Moreover, as long as you let out the wind, Iwagakure will send elites to kill the Uchiha with you, and Natsuki's people will have no choice but to block Iwagakure's people."

The Third Hokage looked at Orochimaru with uncontrollable joy in his eyes.

I didn't expect Orochimaru to have such a political mind.

It is true that the Uchiha team leaving Otogakure Village is always a hidden danger hiding in the dark.

If Konoha releases such news.

Uchiha definitely wouldn't dare to gamble.

According to the hatred between Iwagakure and Kumogakure, there is a high probability that Iwagakure will not let go of this opportunity to go to Kumogakure to fight the autumn wind.

Although I don't know what Uchiha's ultimate goal is, Uchiha will definitely not let Iwagakure pass at this time.

The enemy on the surface and the enemy hidden in the dark are two different concepts.

In this way, Konoha will be less at risk of being attacked by surprise.

The third generation nodded. Konoha could weaken Uchiha without spending a single soldier. That was the best.

Anyway, they just let 200 people pass by Iwagakure.

It seems that Natsuki using other gods to control Orochimaru was the biggest mistake he ever made!

Thinking that Orochimaru had secretly handed over all the food and beverage recipes for Uchiha to live in peace to the daimyo.

The Third Hokage felt relieved.

As long as there is a suitable opportunity, Konoha can fall out with Uchiha.

"Don't worry, Orochimaru, I'll notify the Tsuchikage immediately."

The Third Hokage is becoming more and more satisfied with Orochimaru.

But Orochimaru's next words made his face fall.

"Old man, I'll leave this matter to you. I'll go back to the laboratory first."

Looking at Orochimaru's departing back, the Third Generation felt a little powerless.

Now Orochimaru just has a desire for revenge against the Uchiha clan.

But he wasn't interested in the position of Hokage at all, and he didn't train his subordinates or do any tasks.

I like to spend time in the laboratory doing experiments every day.

Regarding Orochimaru's behavior, the Third Hokage hesitated again.

But he didn't hesitate long before relaxing.

If you still have time, you can observe again. At least Orochimaru is much stronger than Jiraiya.

……

Chapter 256 The truth pursued

Konoha Village.

Orochimaru returned to the laboratory.

But he saw Anko Mitarashi pacing back and forth at the door.

A smile appeared on Orochimaru's face:

"Little Hongdou, why are you finally willing to come see the teacher?"

Hongdou hesitated, but still mustered up the courage:

"Teacher, I want to know why you didn't take me with you when you left."

"What exactly is my sealed memory?"

Anko originally had a cheerful personality, but in front of Orochimaru, she was like a docile kitten.

Especially seeing Orochimaru's appearance as before, Anko seemed to have returned to the time when she followed Orochimaru's teacher.

Orochimaru became her teacher when she was very young.

She also liked Orochimaru very much back then, and has always been proud of being his disciple.

But in the end Orochimaru defected and she also lost a memory.

After she woke up, she was told that Orochimaru wanted to satisfy his endless desire for exploration and pursue greater power.

As a result, he went beyond the realm that ninjas should abide by and began to get involved in the development of forbidden techniques.

In the end, cruel human experiments were conducted.

Finally, he was discovered by the Third Generation Master and defected.

As a disciple of Orochimaru, Anko was subjected to endless questioning and surveillance.

His once proud identity as a Sannin disciple had become a mark of shame.

So he resented and hated Orochimaru.

And the curse mark left by Orochimaru on her neck would appear from time to time, reminding her.

She will always have the mark of Orochimaru on her body.

At this time, Anko hated Orochimaru more than she loved him. After suffering like this for so many years, Anko was finally able to let go.

The announcement in the village caught Hongdou off guard.

Orochimaru was wrongly accused. After Anko saw the news, her first reaction was to go to the Third Hokage for verification.

After receiving a positive reply from the Third Hokage, the hatred in Anko's heart became less and was replaced by confusion.

Since Orochimaru was wrongly accused, why didn't he take him away back then?

Later, Anko was kidnapped inexplicably, only to discover that Orochimaru was Uchiha's spy.

After some struggle, he chose to tell the Third Hokage.

Unexpectedly, the Third Hokage gave her a bigger surprise. Orochimaru was actually an undercover agent who had infiltrated Uchiha.

Today she finally summoned up the courage to come to Orochimaru, just because she wanted to know what the sealed memory was.

Orochimaru seemed to have expected it: "I thought you didn't have the courage to ask me. If you want to know, come with me."

With that said, he turned around and walked towards the house.

Anko calmed down and followed Orochimaru.

There is an operating bed in the room and a stool in front of the operating bed.

Orochimaru pointed to the stool and motioned for Anko to sit on it.

Anko was a little nervous, but she sat down obediently.

Orochimaru moved his fingers and then formed a seal.

Finally, two fingers pointed at Anko's head.

"untie!"

A black dividing line appeared on Anko's head.

Then they all broke off one by one, and finally dissipated in the air.

One memory after another flashed through Hong Dou's mind.

Taro Island, Jiro Island, Mother Island, Strange Island...

At that time, Anko wanted to become an excellent ninja like Lord Orochimaru.

But Hongdou saw the half-human, half-fish monster in the fish tank.

That scene with great visual impact deeply touched Hongdou's heart.

While he didn't trust Orochimaru in his heart, he was planted with a curse seal by Orochimaru.

"Because your desire to gain power is not enough, your thoughts, and your hatred are not enough."

"But, being the only survivor might have some value. Then come with me."

Orochimaru extended his hand, but Anko turned her face away and refused.

Orochimaru was not disappointed, he just said:

"Then I will go look for better children..."

Hongdou recovered all her memories, and she also knew it.

She was not abandoned back then, it was her own choice.

However, recovering the memory does not mean that the knot in the heart is resolved.

"Have you recovered your memory, little Hongdou..."

Orochimaru's hoarse voice brought Anko's thoughts back to reality.

"Do you know why this memory of yours was erased back then?"

Anko shook her head. In her memory, Orochimaru did undergo cruel human modifications, but the village still vindicated Orochimaru, leaving Anko very confused.

"Little Hongdou, this world is not purely black and white, gray things are everywhere."

"Many experiments that you think are taboo are actually experiments that are tacitly tolerated in the eyes of higher-ups."

"All forces will use any means to improve themselves."

Orochimaru lowered his eyes, seeming to recall many past events.

"You are too naive and don't understand the meaning of cruelty."

"When all your relatives and friends are massacred, you will hate yourself for not doing anything to improve yourself."

"This is the truth you have been pursuing for many years."

Orochimaru looked at Anko condescendingly, and what he said made Anko's heart fluctuate violently.

She is no longer the ten-year-old child she was then.

She already knew some things, but she deliberately didn't touch them and just went about her tasks peacefully.

But it all led to Orochimaru being fully revealed.

Are you naive...?

Anko's eyes were blank: "Then the third generation of Hokage knew about the human experiments back then?"

Orochimaru leaned down and asked with pressure: "What do you think, Anko-chan?"

Anko's pupils shrank sharply, and her body leaned back involuntarily.

The body fell violently backward, but luckily there was an operating bed behind him.

Anko suddenly bumped into the operating table behind her.

"So, little Hongdou, do you accept this cruel world?"

"Or should you continue to immerse yourself in your innocence?"

Under the tremendous psychological pressure, Hongdou felt chest tightness, shortness of breath, and sweat profusely.

Her three views for many years seemed to be shattered at this moment.
