"This matter is no longer under our control; it depends on what the teacher and the Third Generation Lord decide."

Akabane shook his head.

When Tsunade asked him that question, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have something to say to her.

After pondering for a long time, a flash of inspiration struck him—

"By the way, have you decided on a candidate for Uchiha Sasuke yet?"

"I approached Orochimaru, and he agreed."

Chapter 89 Role Playing, Itachi!

Oops!

No wonder I felt like I'd forgotten something; it turns out it was this.

Akabane walked several steps away before saying, "I've already asked Uchiha Ryo to play Uchiha Sasuke, and then I'm afraid..."

"what?"

Tsunade froze, speechless for a long time.

"Well... that's how it is. I was going to tell you this before, but I forgot about it later."

Akabane had a terrible headache.

"When did you become so close to those Uchiha guys?"

"It's not exactly good. He comes to the comic book store often, so I just recruited him as a helper."

Akabane explained the whole story.

"This is trouble."

Tsunade sighed.

Although it's not a big deal if two people play the same role, one side can always back down.

The problem is, Orochimaru and Uchiha Ryo...

"It's okay, I've thought of a way."

Akabane pondered for a moment before speaking.

"any solution?"

Tsunade was stunned for a moment. Orochimaru, such a proud person, would actually back down to Uchiha Rin?

It's impossible no matter how you think about it!

"It will be kept secret for now."

Akabane smiled slightly, a hint of mockery in his eyes.

"what?"

Tsunade didn't react in time.

By the time she came to her senses, Akabane had already walked more than ten steps away.

"Hey, where are you going?"

"Go back and rest."

Akabane waved his hand, saying that it was impossible to find Orochimaru now.

That guy was trying to fool Jiraiya for two reasons: first, to get rid of Jiraiya's entanglement, and second, to avoid being monitored by the Third Hokage's telescope technique.

He is probably doing research somewhere now.

"These guys are getting weirder and weirder."

Tsunade looked back at the Hokage Rock, then at Akabane who had left.

Everyone has changed a lot, but...

"Huh, Jiraiya dropped something!"

A few sheets of paper?

The three generations quickly took action, catching the sheets of paper one by one.

The next second, he lowered his head and became completely focused.

After a long while, Jiraiya wiped the ink off the rock wall, looked down, and was immediately stunned.

The painting in the teacher's hand!

"That's not mine..."

"Jiraiya, although Shiro is cute, there should be limits to your fantasies."

The third generation silently put away the paintings, saying, "I'm confiscating these paintings."

"Teacher, no!"

Jiraiya was on the verge of tears. This was the culmination of his research and fusion of techniques from several bathhouses.

"Two perverts!"

Tsunade clenched her fist instantly.

But since the two of them finally had some alone time, they decided not to disturb each other.

"I'm sorry, Jiraiya. I've been paying too little attention to you all this time. I'm very sorry."

The third generation patted his head.

He only had one year left, and he wanted to use that year to teach Orochimaru well so that Orochimaru could inherit his philosophy.

In the end, Jiraiya and Tsunade were both overlooked.

"It's nothing, I've always had the help of the hermits of Mount Myōboku."

Jiraiya scratched the back of his head, feeling embarrassed instead.

"Yes, thank goodness for Mount Myōboku!"

The three generations sighed slightly.

Jiraiya was not without talent, but to be honest, even the Ninja Doctor didn't know how to treat the problem effectively.

Unexpectedness is number one, and that applies to this guy too.

……

The next day

Before Akabane got out of bed, a snake suddenly climbed over the wall.

Instantly, he opened his eyes.

"This is?"

The snake wasn't big, but it very nimbly raised its head and flicked its tongue.

sizzle~~

The little snake crawled onto the table, trying to be at the same level as Akabane, and then a voice came from inside: "Akabane, it's me."

"Wait, let's talk outside."

Akabane created shadow clones, which transformed into insects and flew out of the window into the forest.

The little snake followed closely behind, all the way into the forest.

Seeing that no one was around, Akabane asked, "Is this a summoning beast?"

"Yes, I have been studying the ninjutsu related to them during this time."

The snake flicked its tongue and continued to make noises.

Does a snake split into two?

Akabane smiled slightly, lay down, and asked, "You came to see me so early in the morning, is there something you need?"

"I heard that Jiraiya... Hmph, that idiot must have been punished terribly."

Orochimaru said half a sentence, then let out a cold laugh.

"No, but did you instigate him to cause trouble in order to get rid of Jiraiya and the teacher?"

Akabane looked amused.

Orochimaru said helplessly, "No, I just told him that if he wants the teacher to approve of him, he should take action to prove it."

"Unexpectedness is number one; it never catches you off guard."

Akabane chuckled softly.

Young Jiraiya looked remarkably similar to Naruto.

"By the way, Danzo showed me the Book of Seals."

Orochimaru said, "It's the thing you drew that Naruto stole."

"It's a copy, right? The original copy is only available in the third generation."

Akabane said.

"The techniques inside are not complete; Danzo must have done it secretly. Also, Danzo has recently been trying to give me information about the First Hokage."

Orochimaru said.

Information exchange is part of the previous cooperation between the two parties.

He sent his snake clone over to ensure safety to the greatest extent possible.

Data from the first generation?

So he had been exposed to it so early on.

Akabane was slightly startled, then understood—

Orochimaru's early research focused mostly on immortality and regeneration. As an expert in this field, he had already conducted considerable research on the First Hokage.

He pondered for a moment, then said, "Danzo's target is most likely Wood Release."

"That matches my guess."

Orochimaru agreed.

"Since Hashirama Senju, no Wood Release has appeared in the Senju clan. This may be related to chakra, physique, life force, and so on."

Akabane said, "Furthermore, the later stages of the research will inevitably involve..."

"I know."

The little snake nodded and climbed off the table.

"By the way, you're going to the anime convention too, right?"

"Ok?"

It looked up again and made a questioning sound.

"Tsunade invited you to play Sasuke, but that kind of role is too childish. I have someone more suitable for you."

Akabane smiled slightly. "Do you remember the first painting you received?"

"Itachi Uchiha?"

Orochimaru's clones were stunned. It was just a painting; how could they possibly act it out?

"Yes, at comic conventions, not only do current characters appear, but also some characters that will appear in the future. You playing Uchiha Itachi is perfect."

"I reject."

Orochimaru said calmly.

"why?"

Akabane paused for a moment.

"Because you have ill intentions, and don't forget, snakes are very sensitive!"
