Chapter 293 Trading

The Xuanwu family had almost finished their meal when Orochimaru, who had been blown away for who knows how many meters, came back to the Xuanwu family limping with a branch stuck in his head and dirty clothes.

Except for Tsunade and Genbu who had just returned to the village, the four little ones all had different expressions when they saw Orochimaru, and they just greeted him politely.

Kushina obviously wanted to say something to Genbu, but Minato stopped her.

"Clang",

It was the sound of a bowl hitting the table.

Tsunade stared at Orochimaru with unfriendly eyes, and the meaning was self-evident: What are you doing here? Are you looking for a beating?

Orochimaru was frightened: I haven't seen this old tiger woman for a few years. What on earth did she go through? How come she suddenly became so much stronger?

Of course he could use the Snake Substitution Technique to recover, but in the current situation, it would be easier to get away with it by playing the victim.

"Tsunade, I apologize."

Sometimes giving in is the best way to solve a problem.

Tsunade, a kind-hearted person, saw that Orochimaru had been beaten so badly and had apologized, so she decided to forgive him reluctantly.

"Orochimaru, I'll forgive you this time, but if you do it again, I'll make you fly to the moon, humph!"

After Tsunade finished speaking, she turned and walked towards the second floor. Before leaving, she gave Xuanwu a look, letting him experience it himself.

Xuanwu understood immediately, hehe.

After Tsunade returned to the house, he said to Orochimaru unhappily, "Let's go, let's talk outside."

Orochimaru never comes to visit someone unless he has something important to do. The fact that he can come back after being knocked away by Shinra Tensei can only mean that the matter is more important.

Moreover, Xuanwu sensed through his observation Haki that his chakra had become completely different from before. How to describe that feeling? It was as if he had changed from one person to another. No, not a person, but an animal, cold, strange, and without any human emotions.

In addition to the unusual reactions of Minato and others, Xuanwu planned to find a secluded place to find out.

After a while, the two arrived at the door of Orochimaru's favorite barbecue restaurant.

"Mr. Xuanwu, I am a poor man."

Xuanwu didn't bother to pay attention to him and walked straight in.

The names of the Three Stars of Konoha and Takemiya Thunder God are both well-known, and there are few people in the village who don't know Xuanwu.

As soon as he entered, he was recognized by the lobby manager, who quickly ran over and bowed, saying, "Hello, boss!"

Xuanwu owns 20% of the shares of all the barbecue restaurants in Konoha (the reason has been mentioned before, so I won’t waste time on it). He is definitely the big boss!

He waved his hand as a greeting, and when he passed by the lobby manager, he instructed: "Remember to get a permanent discount card for that black-haired fake poor guy. From now on, he can get a 10% discount when he eats here. He can also buy on credit if he doesn't have money. It will be charged to my account."

The lobby manager replied immediately, "Hi."

He was curious about who that fake poor guy was, but when he turned around, he saw, oh my god, it was Lengjun Orochimaru!

He quickly lowered his head, his eyes suddenly filled with fear, resentment and contempt, but no admiration or respect.

Xuanwu noticed that something was wrong with him, but pretended not to see it, because everyone who saw Orochimaru along the way from home to here was like this.

Orochimaru didn't say anything, and Xuanwu didn't ask.

"Xuanwu-kun is really generous. Is this Tsunade's apology for beating me?"

"That's it."

The two of them chose a luxurious private room. Various meat dishes were served at an extremely fast speed without any delay like at other tables. This is the advantage of being a boss!

After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Xuanwu, with his mouth full of oil, patted his stomach with satisfaction. This is life!

He then formed a seal with one hand to cast a perception shielding barrier.

"Okay, now let's get down to business. What's going on with your chakra, why are there ANBU following you, and why are all the villagers afraid of you."

Orochimaru, who had barely eaten during the entire process and had watched Xuanwu's performance for quite some time, chuckled and said, "You really can't hide anything from me, Xuanwu-kun. It doesn't matter. You will understand after a while. I didn't come to you today to explain some boring questions, but to make a deal."

Orochimaru said as he pulled out a scroll from his ninja tool bag and waved it in front of Xuanwu.

"what is this?"

Orochimaru didn't keep him in suspense and told him directly, "The cell tissue of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju."

"What did you say!"

Xuanwu stood up suddenly and pretended to be surprised, but he was actually very excited. He put other problems aside for the time being, getting this was the most important thing!

Xuanwu knew about Orochimaru's research on the first generation cells earlier than Orochimaru himself. He had been looking forward to Orochimaru sharing it with him. Now that he has finally waited for it, how can he not be excited!

Orochimaru was very satisfied with Xuanwu's shock. He tempted him, "How about it? Do you want it? This is the cell tissue of the God of Ninja."

Xuanwu pretended to be righteous on the surface, "Orochimaru, you are blaspheming the glory of our ancestors. I strongly condemn you, you..."

Orochimaru looked at Xuanwu with disdain and interrupted, "Forget it, you are the only one who has the right to talk to me about being aboveboard. In a word, do you want it or not? If you don't want it, I'll take it away and pretend I was never here."

After saying this, he lifted his butt and was ready to leave without any hesitation.

There was no way Xuanwu would let him go, so he grabbed Orochimaru's wrist and said with a grin, "Don't be so anxious to leave, we can talk about anything."

Orochimaru sneered, "You won't blaspheme the glory anymore?"

"Well, I think that not inheriting the power of our ancestors is the greatest blasphemy to their glory."

Orochimaru sat back down and continued to refute him, "That's not right. The Wood Style Secret Technique that the First Hokage used to pacify the Ninja World has been passed down by Tsunade, and the Flying Thunder God and Water Style Ninjutsu of the Second Hokage were learned by Minato and Nawaki. As for the forbidden techniques, you have basically mastered them, so how can there be no inheritance?"

Seeing that Orochimaru was not leaving, Xuanwu also sat back in his original position and explained with gritted teeth: "Well, Tsunade's Wood Release is still a little bit lacking. I believe that the first generation will forgive me if he knows that I studied his Wood Release for Tsunade."

Orochimaru became more and more sarcastic, "So the First Hokage should thank you."

"Ahahaha, not really, not really."

Orochimaru was too lazy to waste time and said, "Xuanwu-kun, there is no such thing as a free lunch. What are you going to exchange for it?"

Xuan Wuzhuang pretended to be dumbfounded, "Given our relationship, shouldn't you give it to me?"

"It seems that Xuanwu Jun still has no sincerity. Forget it, I'd better leave."

Orochimaru once again pretended to leave.

"Stop, stop, stop, stop. Why do you want to leave when you don't agree with something?"

"You wanted to get something for free, so why should I stay here and wait to be ripped off?"

At this point, you can’t get it by playing dirty.

"Please state your conditions. If they are not too excessive, I can consider them."

Orochimaru showed a smile of success. He licked the corner of his mouth with his tongue in his signature style, and then raised a finger, "First, I want you to defeat the Second Kazekage, and then the old man will reward you with the forbidden technique."

Xuanwu's eyes were stern. "Given your relationship with the Third Hokage, you should be able to get it. Why did you come to me?"

"I can't tell you this. How about it? Do you agree?"

Regardless of why the Third Hokage didn't give it to Orochimaru, that technique alone is extraordinary.

After thinking it over again and again, Xuanwu made a decision: Even if I don't give it to him, he will find ways to get the Book of Seals. Instead of doing that, it is better to exchange for something else. Besides, after getting the cell tissues of the first and second generations, I won't be afraid of him using that forbidden technique.

"Okay, I promise you."

Xuanwu took out a scroll from his ninja tool bag, and after unsealing one of the seals, a training manual appeared on the table. There were four big words written on the cover of the manual:

"Reincarnation"!

PS: Happy Valentine's Day everyone yesterday!
