After a tour with Zhao Fuyu and the others, Orochimaru finally relaxed his body and mind, which was also very beneficial for his future research.
Not to mention that after tasting the flesh and blood of the tailed beast, the changes in his body also began to make great strides forward again.
The chakra will that captured the Sage of Six Paths was not a super secret that could not be known to outsiders.
With the power that is now unrivaled in the ninja world, no one can be his opponent, even those who are behind the scenes. Orochimaru returned to Konoha Village smoothly.
At this time, the other two former Sannins of Konoha also rushed to his research institute at the same time as he returned.
...
Tsunade and Jiraiya had just tasted some of the assembly-line side dishes brought by Zhao Fuyu and practiced the natural chakra method, and they had already entered a new realm of power.
It is precisely because of this that they have a clearer understanding of how terrifying Orochimaru is today.
Not to mention that right in front of them, Orochimaru forcefully captured the founder of the ninja world, the Sage of Six Paths Otsutsuki Hagoromo!
In their eyes, Orochimaru with such power has become a being that can determine the survival of this world, so after the previous exchange, they returned to Konoha Village again, and soon noticed the atmosphere in Konoha after settling down. unusual.
Then he quickly noticed some of the things Orochimaru did.
Many doubts arose in their hearts. Although the scene of Konoha they saw was full of vitality and a state of advancement of all things, there were also many things contained in it that they could not see clearly.
So after Orochimaru came back, the two of them came together to find him.
They could also feel that since returning to Konoha, the two of them had not received the welcome they should have, and were even vaguely ostracized by all parties.
Jiraiya was just a loner and had a dissolute reputation, so there was nothing to worry about.
But Tsunade is an orthodox member of the Senju clan, and many members of the Senju clan have now integrated into Konoha Village as villagers. Although the Senju clan has been completely disbanded, she still wants to recreate the glory of the Senju clan. , it is not that it has never appeared in their hearts.
It's just that Tsunade has never been in the village before, and now she is back this time. Unexpectedly, many people are getting ready to take action.
There will naturally be many indirect temptations.
Under such circumstances, the two parties that had almost lost their brains in the fight for the position of Konoha Hokage were definitely not willing to have another strong opponent.
Secret resistance is naturally a matter of course.
Therefore, Tsunade, who has repeatedly encountered obstacles in the village recently, has been relieving her worries in the hotel for a long time. If Jiraiya hadn't pulled her out of the tavern this time, I'm afraid she would still be in drunkenness.
This also disappoints Orochimaru. Although Tsunade still has a strong heart, her attitude of drinking to drown her sorrows when encountering setbacks always makes people unable to see any bright spots.
"Now I have some doubts about whether it should be given to you first instead of to Jiraiya."
"Tsunade!"
In the past, Tsunade-hime, who dared to stand up and fight against their teachers and many conservatives in the Hokage meeting, seemed to have completely disappeared from this world because of the war.
Orochimaru was very dissatisfied.
Even though she has more powerful power, her heart has not come back. What she has found is not the Tsunade-hime who was one of the Konoha Sannin in the past.
If Tsunade-hime had encountered such a blow in the past, she would have immediately found a way to express her thoughts and vent her dissatisfaction, instead of going to a tavern to get drunk.
When Jiraiya heard this, his expression obviously changed slightly.
He didn't expect Orochimaru to be so unkind to Tsunade.
"Originally, I thought Naoki's death was the biggest stimulus to you, but it seems that Kato Dan also stimulated you quite a bit..."
Orochimaru, who had always paid little attention to matters between men and women and had no unnecessary love between men and women, looked at Tsunade.
He didn't pay attention to the struggle on her face, but continued to talk to himself.
"I can help you find the rope tree, but Kato Dan's soul was destroyed. You should know what that means."
Hearing this, Tsunade's eyes showed mixed emotions, but she had no dissatisfaction with Orochimaru.
Over this period of time, she gradually discovered that Orochimaru was not more unkind than before, but that he was more direct.
The kind of cruel and real directness that is like the truth you have to face.
"I will try my best to adjust myself."
"lets change a topic..."
"Orochimaru, what do you want to do? The situation in Konoha Village, even if I just came back, I feel it is about to explode."
"Even the old man seems to have been completely trapped in a vortex and can no longer struggle out. He is aging faster than in the past few years!"
After hearing Tsunade's question, Jiraiya also cast his gaze over. It was obvious that he also wanted to know the answer to this question.
"Really..."
"It's just a drama about a group of mediocre people fighting for power. What's so interesting about it?"
"Actually, you should ask another question."
"Why can't I see Uchiha signs or their people along the way!"
Hearing this, Tsunade and Jiraiya froze. It was indeed true. When they returned to Konoha Village this time, they did not see any Uchiha signs. Not even a few Uchiha clan members were seen. .
This was really weird, but they encountered so many differences after returning this time that they didn't notice it.
It wasn't until Orochimaru woke up to this point that they realized what was the strangest thing about Konoha.
You must know that even if they have never liked the Uchiha clan, as the security department, they have been patrolling Konoha and handling various disputes, large and small.
It's impossible not to see anyone.
"What did you do again?"
Jiraiya couldn't help but ask. Orochimaru wanted to use Uchiha bloodline for experiments. In fact, it wasn't just once or twice. He had many ideas in the past, but he didn't really implement them.
Is it this time?
Considering Orochimaru's current strength, if he wants to do something, even the destruction of the Uchiha clan is not impossible.
"The bloodline closest to Otsutsuki's origin, what are you thinking about? I will not exterminate them."
"But I gave them some other tasks, so that they no longer serve in Konoha."
Two understated sentences, but the meaning contained in them was enough to make Jiraiya and Tsunade, who knew the situation in Konoha Village in the past, swallow their saliva.
Because they know that to achieve such a thing, it takes an incredible amount of energy and how much power is needed to back it up!
