Chapter 222 Recruiting Orochimaru

The first time he saw Byakuya, Orochimaru's heart went off, and he subconsciously took a few steps back to keep enough distance from Byakuya.

This seemingly sunny young man is not a kind person, but a cunning old fox.

In just a few years, not only did he join forces with other members of the Akatsuki organization to drag Sansho Hanzo down from his position as the leader of Amegakure Village, but he also relied on his own strength to fight the Fourth Raikage on a par with him and forcibly stopped The war between Konoha and Kumogakure brought the entire Yugakure village into its hands.

With such an astonishing record, even if he was a Sannin of Konoha, he would not dare to look down upon him.

Recalling the scene when he met Byakuya a few years ago, Orochimaru even felt that he was too naive at the time, thinking about how to control a monster like Byakuya.

At the moment, although I have some connection with Bai Ye secretly,

But do people like them really care about friendship?

At this time, Byakuya jumped down from the tree branch and walked towards Orochimaru while saying: "Isn't this Konoha's S-level rebel Orochimaru? It seems that I am lucky today and can make a lot of money... "

Orochimaru's heart sank, and he said without changing his expression: "Byakuya Jonin is joking. Although I am an S-level traitorous ninja of Konoha, isn't Byakuya Lord also secretly in contact with Danzo?"

"Are you threatening me?"

Byakuya showed displeasure, and then he took out a kunai and said slowly: "I hate it when someone threatens me. Besides, you should have had a big battle with Jiraiya just now, and you probably don't have much chakra left."

"If I catch you now and hand you over to the Konoha Ninja Village, how much money will I get?"

After hearing this, Orochimaru secretly thought that, as expected, the encounter between Byakuya and himself was not an unexpected incident, but was premeditated.

If both he and Jiraiya were really hurt, they might both fall into Byakuya's hands.

Thinking of this, Orochimaru frowned, and then said: "What exactly does Byakuya Jonin want to do? If you really want to take action against me, you shouldn't wait until this time."

Bai Ye nodded, and then said: "As expected of Lord Leng, Orochimaru, he can understand my thoughts so easily. I really don't have much murderous intention towards senior Orochimaru."

"I came to see Orochimaru-senpai this time because Orochimaru-senpai left Konoha Ninja Village, so I wanted to come here to recruit Orochimaru-senpai and let you join my Akatsuki organization."

"Akatsuki organization?" Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly. He seemed to have heard of this name.

Isn't this an organization established by Jiraiya's three apprentices? He had also thought about joining the Akatsuki Organization, but after all, the Akatsuki Organization was an organization established by Jiraiya's apprentice. With his current status, joining would be very dangerous.

Byakuya saw Orochimaru's thoughts and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, I am currently the leader of the Akatsuki organization and the real master of Amegakure and Yugakure villages. If Orochimaru-senpai is willing to join the Akatsuki organization, I will not let Yahiko and the others know."

Hearing this, Orochimaru was moved.

During the few months on the run, he was pursued by Anbu and Root ninjas. When he was a frontline commander, he offended the enemy and sent many killers.

Although these people were unable to kill him, they could prevent him from recovering from his injuries.

But then I thought about it, he left the Konoha Ninja Village just to stop being dependent on others and enjoy a life that was entirely his own decision. If he joins another organization this time, wouldn't it be in vain for him.

"Jounin Byakuya, considering my current status as a rebel, if I join the Akatsuki organization, I'm afraid it will have a negative impact on the Amegakure Village. Plus, I don't want to be restrained, so..."

Before Orochimaru finished speaking, he noticed that Byakuya's face in front of him changed again and again.

The smile on Byakuya's face suddenly disappeared, replaced by winter-like indifference. He walked towards Orochimaru and said:

"I'm sorry, Orochimaru-senpai, I'm not asking for your opinion, but an ultimatum to you. With your strength, there seems to be no possibility of rejecting me."

After saying that, Bai Ye disappeared directly from the spot, flew into the sky and tilted the detonating talisman towards the ground.

The detonating talisman like raindrops formed mushroom clouds on the ground, and the shock wave set off made Orochimaru roar.

Without giving Orochimaru any chance to react, he took advantage of the chaos on the ground.

Byakuya slapped his hands on the ground, and vines shot up from the ground. In just a moment, they tightly entangled Orochimaru and absorbed the chakra in his body.

Orochimaru, who was already weak, had no chance to resist and became a prisoner.

After witnessing the entire operation, Orochimaru was extremely shocked. He knew that Byakuya was strong enough to compete with the Fourth Raikage, and was a monster no less than Minato.

But he didn't expect Bai Ye's strength to be so strong, so strong that he didn't even have a chance to resist.

And forget about the difficult secret technique of Paper Release. When did Byakuya master Wood Release? It was the blood succession limit mastered by the first Hokage. It has been lost in the ninja world for decades.

Even though Konoha has been conducting experiments on Hashirama cells for the past ten years, only Tenzo, the Wood Release Blood Successor Ninja, has appeared.

Now, Bai Ye used Wood Release in front of him, and he looked very skillful.

Thinking of this, Orochimaru suddenly thought about many things clearly, why the Akatsuki organization was able to defeat Sansho Hanzo and successfully gain control of Amegakure Village.

Why is Byakuya always so arrogant, and why does he dare to get close to Jiraiya and the Third Hokage?

The reason is very simple. Bai Ye has the strength of the five shadows from the beginning, and even vaguely surpasses the five shadows.

With such terrifying strength, his heart is naturally full of confidence.

After retracting his thoughts that were gradually diverging, Orochimaru looked at Byakuya's position again, his eyes a little more awe-inspiring and a little more coveted.

Before Bai Ye's threat, he couldn't find any reason to join the Akatsuki organization, but after Bai Ye used the Wood Release Blood Successor, he had one more reason to join the Akatsuki organization.

No matter what Bai Ye's purpose was in recruiting him, he wanted to get close to Bai Ye and then study Bai Ye.

It's rare to see such a vivid experimental subject. Maybe he can master the secret of Bai Ye's power and explore the limits of ninjutsu.

After walking up to Orochimaru, Byakuya raised a smile and said lightly: "Orochimaru, you should calm down now? Do you choose to become my subordinate, or continue to resist?"

Orochimaru stared at Byakuya and said unabashedly:

"I joined the Akatsuki organization, but as a condition of joining the Akatsuki organization, I want to conduct research on you. You have too many secrets."

"Are you interested in me?"

Bai Ye smiled and then nodded slightly: "If you encounter me getting injured in the future, you can collect my blood at will, but I'm not that easy to get hurt."
