Konoha: There is a Kakarot inside me

'The proposal to build a base on the surface was rejected again.'

"Damn Sarutobi, you want to harm me, let's wait and see!"

Just as Danzo was complaining in his heart, Naruto, who was standing behind him, winked at a Root ninja, who then nodded at Naruto and quietly handed him a small scroll. The other Root ninjas, whether new or old, acted as if they didn't see anything and continued doing their original things.

After a while, after Danzo's repeated instructions, Naruto left the Root.

After finding a place and making sure that no one was around, Naruto opened the scroll. The scroll was not big, only about 18 centimeters wide, and it was densely packed with records of many things, basically what Danzo had done recently, and records of conversations with the Third Hokage. Naruto directly skipped these meaningless contents and scrolled to the bottom of the scroll, where he found the information he needed.

There is a name recorded on it - Shuimu.

"So he hasn't been abandoned yet." Naruto was slightly surprised to see the name above. In the original plot, one year later, this guy induced Naruto, who had failed the Ninja School exam, to steal the Book of Seals. He was then discovered by Iruka and finally beaten into a pig's head by Naruto's Multiple Shadow Clone Technique.

His overall strength is average. In the original plot, he was cursed by Orochimaru and turned into a half-human, half-tiger. Even after using the curse, his strength is still average.

After finding the information he wanted, the scroll in his hand was covered by light waves, and in the end, not even a trace was left.

That's right, Naruto is looking for Orochimaru.

In addition to Mizuki, Naruto knows that there is another person in Konoha who can contact Orochimaru, and that is Kabuto Yakushi. However, Kabuto Yakushi's multiple identities as a spy are too complicated, and any move would easily cause a backlash.

That night, after finishing a day of teaching, Mizuki dragged his tired body back home. As a man with great ambitions, he did not like his current job.

Teaching kids is too boring.

Due to his limited abilities, Mizuki was unable to advance to become a special jonin and could only do this kind of job that was neither high nor low.

They have enough ambition but lack the ability to match it. In other words, they cannot see themselves clearly.

No wonder Orochimaru would abandon him.

"Who is it?" Shuimu was about to take off his clothes and take a hot bath when he discovered that a figure had appeared by the windowsill.

'When did you come? '

Mizuki watched as the figure quietly pulled out a kunai.

"I stood here without moving at all. It's because you were not alert enough."

"Mizuki, I need you to contact Orochimaru."

Naruto didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

Under the moonlight, the root mask on Naruto's face reflected the cold moonlight, causing Mizuki to shiver involuntarily.

"I have always been very good at hiding myself. When did I get exposed?"

Naruto rolled his eyes under the mask: "It was exposed from the beginning. The Root Ninja knew about this from the day you defected to Orochimaru."

The Root and Anbu have quite complete intelligence gathering on the Konoha ninjas.

"Tell Orochimaru that this is an order from Lord Danzo."

Chapter 70 This is what Danzo-sama meant

"What does that guy Danzo want to talk to me about at this time?" After receiving the news from Mizuki, Orochimaru kept speculating about Danzo's intentions.

Before, Orochimaru joined an organization, a powerful organization, whose members were all S-rank rebels. Even the infamous Uchiha Itachi who wiped out his entire clan was one of its members.

Two years ago, Orochimaru attacked Uchiha Itachi because he was trying to see the power of the Mangekyō Sharingan, but was killed in return. Not only was he completely defeated by the opponent in illusion, but he also had one of his arms chopped off.

Losing an arm is equivalent to cutting off most of the combat power of a ninjutsu-type ninja. The grief-stricken Orochimaru had no choice but to give up his original body and use the forbidden technique of reincarnation to reincarnate into someone else.

Orochimaru kept the severed hand as a warning, and at the same time he desired to gain the power of the Sharingan even more.

Don’t think that Orochimaru is bad at illusion just because he was completely defeated by Itachi. In fact, not only is Orochimaru not bad at illusion, on the contrary, it is one of his most proud abilities.

Orochimaru can make people fall into hallucinations simply with his aura and murderous intent. Sasuke during the Chunin Exams and his transformed body Genyumaru after the Chunin Exams were both caught in this illusion.

According to the official book of "The Book of the Slayer", Orochimaru's stats are:

忍：10、体：7、幻：10、贤：10、力：7、速：9、精：7、印：10，合计：70

Strength and stamina overall mean that Orochimaru is actually not good at physical skills. For this reason, he specially developed software transformation techniques to target the damage caused by physical skills. The value of 7 represents that even the lowest value is far beyond that of ordinary people.

Illusion 10 means that Orochimaru's illusion ability is the best in the ninja world, and 10 is the highest value.

When you have reached the pinnacle of a certain ability and are standing at the top of the world with no room for improvement, but are defeated seemingly casually by someone in the most ordinary way, who can help but be envious of this power? Who can help but be moved?

Although Itachi's thought process is different from that of ordinary people, his illusion technique is really strong.

Others can achieve illusion level 10 because their illusion technique has reached level 10, but Itachi can achieve illusion level 10 because his illusion technique is only level 10.

"Sharingan, why didn't you discover this power earlier?"

During several ninja wars, Orochimaru had members of the Uchiha clan under his command more than once. At that time, he was very conceited and felt that the Sharingan was as unimportant as the Byakugan.

It wasn't until he was defeated by Itachi that he faced up to this power.

Unfortunately, it was too late, the Uchiha clan was exterminated.

Not long ago, Orochimaru left that organization. According to Orochimaru, it was because of differences in ideas.

Now that organization is searching for him all over the world.

'It just happened to be at this time.' After his defection, Danzo and Orochimaru kept in touch but not frequently. Orochimaru's golden snake eyes were spinning around, constantly speculating and thinking about Danzo's intentions: 'It seems that Danzo knows something.'

"Are you trying to get information about Akatsuki from me? Or are you trying to warn me not to do anything tricky?"

Akatsuki, the name of the organization that Orochimaru joined. Pein (Nagato), whom Naruto had previously spoken to under the code name 'Uzumaki', was the leader of the organization.

'Whatever the purpose is, you will know it once you meet him.'

Naruto soon received a reply from Mizuki: "Three days later, at night, at the edge of Konoha."

At night, the round moon hangs on the branches, and the soft moonlight spreads all over the earth.

Under the moon, Naruto, wearing Root uniform, arrived as promised with two Root members.

I really don’t know if it’s a coincidence or something, but every time we take action at night, it’s a full moon night.

'The moonlight is so beautiful, it would be nice if I could enjoy it with Hinata. 'The Hyuga clan has very strict family discipline, and they are not allowed to go out at night, even if Hinata has been deprived of the position of heir to the clan leader.

Orochimaru and his men arrived early at an open space on the border of Konoha Village. Naruto recognized him at a glance. Orochimaru, dressed in a white kimono, was extremely eye-catching in the dark.

"As an S-rank rebel ninja, Lord Orochimaru, you came to Konoha without even disguising yourself."

"Aren't you afraid of being discovered by the Third Generation Master?"

For Orochimaru, who has lived in Konoha since childhood, the barrier of Konoha is no different from a sieve in front of him. As long as he wants, he can come and go freely in the entire Konoha Village. Not to mention the border of Konoha, even running to the Hokage Rock is not a problem.

Whether you can return intact afterwards is another matter.

"You are late." In response to Naruto's provocative remarks, Orochimaru simply waved his hand to appease his subordinates, and then spoke in his unique, magnetic, hoarse voice.

"Where's Danzo? Ask him to come see me."

Do Root ninjas usually talk so much?

"Danzo-sama has more important matters to attend to. From now on, I will be responsible for contacting you."

There was a hint of murderous intent in Orochimaru's eyes. Who is he?

One of the legendary three ninjas, Konoha's S-rank rebel ninja, leader of the Sound Village, the cold-hearted Orochimaru.

Even though he had worked at the Root for a period of time, he had always been in direct contact with Danzo.

When will it be everyone else's turn?

"Just you?" Orochimaru's voice suddenly turned cold, and the temperature around him dropped sharply. The terrifying murderous aura instantly filled the entire forest.

Orochimaru's strength is not comparable to that of a third-rate character in the Kusagakure Village. Even the strongest man in the Land of Grass, Wuwei, is far inferior to Orochimaru. His aura alone is greater than that of an entire village.

"What does that Danzo guy mean?"

"I can't sit idly by if someone disrespects Danzo-sama, even you." Even Orochimaru's men trembled under his murderous aura that was not directed at them, but Naruto, who faced the murderous aura, seemed to feel nothing. Instead, he warned:

"Hopefully there won't be a next time."

"Another suggestion is for Lord Orochimaru. This is Konoha, so it's better to be more restrained. If you release murderous aura so recklessly, it will be very bad if you attract the Anbu. After all, the Anbu are directly under the Third Hokage, and it is still difficult to deal with them."

"Interesting." Seeing that Naruto was not affected by his murderous aura at all, Orochimaru put away his murderous aura and looked at Naruto with interest.

"I don't know where this guy Danzo came from, but it seems he is a key training target for the Root."

'Just like the former Aburame Ryoma'

"I really envy Konoha, there are so many talented people. I have searched all over the five great countries and only found a few good ones."

"You can barely pass."

The murderous intent just now was just a test from Orochimaru, the purpose was to test Naruto's strength, and to see if he could find any clues to judge Danzo's intentions. If Naruto showed weakness, Orochimaru would kill him in one go, even if he was from the Root, and in the future when facing Danzo's questioning, he would just say that they were rude to him.

Not everyone is qualified to talk to Orochimaru on an equal footing.

"Tell me, what do you want to do?"

The atmosphere eased slightly, and a pair of golden snake eyes stared at Naruto.

"What I am going to say next is what Danzo-sama meant."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 71 As expected of Danzo

"Danzo wants my research results?" Hearing Naruto's request, Orochimaru's expression remained the same, but became much gloomier.

"How did Danzo know that I had made a breakthrough in my research on Impure World Reincarnation?"

That's right, what Naruto said to Orochimaru was: "Danzo-sama knows that you have made a breakthrough in Impure World Reincarnation, and he needs the latest research data."

"So you are attracted by my research results?" Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth and said firmly.

"But that's impossible."

Are you kidding me? This is Impure World Reincarnation, one of Orochimaru's trump cards. Danzo wants it? Why?

"Really?" Naruto didn't care about Orochimaru's rejection. He knew that Orochimaru didn't really refuse, he just didn't have enough chips. So he took out a glass bottle from his arms and waved it in front of Orochimaru.

"Even if I use this thing as an exchange, I can't do that?"

He said to Orochimaru temptingly, "Danzo-sama specifically told you that you are very eager to get this thing."

When Orochimaru saw clearly what was in the bottle, his breathing became heavier and his pupils contracted sharply. Even with Orochimaru's self-control, he almost couldn't help but grab it.

The murderous intent emanating from Orochimaru made the two men at the Root beside Naruto move forward slightly, standing between Naruto and Orochimaru, looking ready to attack.

A single magatama Sharingan lay quietly in the bottle in Naruto's hand.

That was what Orochimaru desired most at this moment.

Naruto asked Yamanaka Fuu to take it from Danzo's collection. Gen had no secrets from Naruto, and Danzo's collection was equivalent to Naruto's collection.

Naruto doesn't care about the Sharingan, which is highly sought after by outsiders. Although according to normal logic, Naruto can evolve the Sharingan into the Samsara Eye after pressing it. But now, as long as Naruto wants, he can shoot lasers from his eyes at any time, which are not only powerful but also very fast.

So the meaning of Sharingan to Naruto is that it is okay to have, but it is not necessary.

"Be patient, Lord Orochimaru. These things will be yours sooner or later."

Naruto said as he put the bottle containing the Sharingan away again.

It was not until the Sharingan disappeared from his sight that Orochimaru calmed down and recognized the identities of the two Roots.

'The wind in the mountain, the oil girl takes the root.'

"Danzo even arranged for his right and left hands."

"It's not an ordinary root after all."

After seeing these two people, Orochimaru became more convinced that Naruto was a subordinate carefully trained by Danzo, and his dissatisfaction with Danzo also dissipated a little.

Although Orochimaru was indeed not wrong in his guess, Naruto was indeed carefully trained by Danzo, but there were some deviations in the details of the side branches.

Naruto's next words made Orochimaru's heart jump.

"Danzo-sama, I am deeply sorry about the incident with your arm."

Orochimaru: '?!'
