Chapter 217 Orochimaru’s Pride

Not long after Nara Suzaku left the room, his originally energetic expression suddenly collapsed and turned into a sigh.

"Suzaku, don't be so sad. What Kirito-sama tells us this time is a good test for us. If we fail, we will be in dire straits in the future. We will definitely be squeezed out of the core."

Seeing this, Qiudao Sidong persuaded.

After saying that, he took out a pack of limited-edition wasabi-flavored potato chips from his arms that he had been reluctant to eat in the past few days, and handed them to Nara Suzaku.

He is stupid and his brain is not very good, so he can only cheer up his friends in this way.

They, Inar, Deer and Butterfly, are a trinity. On the surface, Kirito only gives the task to Nara Suzaku, but in essence, he wants the three of them to work together to complete the matter.

"The two of us will also help. If you really can't, ask the old guys for help."

Yamazaka Sansan scratched his head and said he also had a headache.

"Don't, don't, don't reach out to the family, then the few of us will really become insignificant tools. He is testing our ability, not expecting us to rely on the strength of the family to complete this matter. .

Besides, once this matter reaches home, there is no guarantee that the secret will not be leaked. Once the secret is leaked, no matter how good we do, it will be in vain. "

Suzaku Nara took the potato chips and shook his head.

"Then what should we do? It's too difficult for the three of us alone. Those old-timers are getting more and more angry. It's not easy to get them to help. Even if we have the cake drawn by Kirito-sama, it's not easy to use. Ah, they are all the ones who don't let go of the eagle before they see the rabbit."

When Shanzhong Sansan heard that he could not rely on his family's strength to do things, he felt a little panicked and had a headache.

The Jonin in the military camp are not easy to talk to. Maybe these people will be obedient and very honest in front of their current boss, Tohsaka Kirito, but if they were replaced by a few of them, the result would be completely different.

Unless you have the strength to crush these old guys, it is very difficult to impress them just by talking and trying to impress them.

There must be something affordable.

In short, if you want these seniors to help, you must first show some sincerity.

It's a pity that with this little sincerity, the three of them really can't afford it if they don't rely on their family.

And their boss gave them a piece of pie that was beyond their reach, without any starting capital.

They are all poor.

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that?"

Suddenly, Nara Suzaku said loudly, with a look of realization on his face.

"What's wrong, Suzaku, have you thought of a solution?"

Akimichi Sito saw Nara Suzaku's expression and said in surprise.

"Yes, I thought of a good idea."

Nara Suzaku said with a smile.

"What's a good idea?"

Shanzhong Sansan asked curiously.

After Nara Suzaku heard this, he immediately cooled down and imitated Chizuru's tone and said: "The weak should obey the words of the strong."

Seeing this, Akimichi Sito and Yamazaka Sansan looked at each other, unsure of what was going on in their little friend's mind.

There seems to be no market for this kind of typical Uchiha speech in the military. Generally, it is only recognized by those of the Uchiha clan who have higher eyesight.

At this thought, Akimichi Sito and Yamazaka Sansan suddenly thought of what Suzaku Nara was thinking just now.

"It seems you have all thought of it."

Nara Suzaku saw the reactions of his two friends and said with a smile.

That's right, for the plan that Kirito asked them to make this time, they should go to the Uchiha clan to do it. Only these ninjas who have strong obedience to the strong in their hearts can effectively execute this plan.

But the prerequisite is that they need to be conquered. Only in this way can these proud Uchiha ninjas be obedient and happily eat the pie drawn by their boss Tohsaka Kirito.

Also, the Uchiha clan are all proficient in genjutsu, which makes them suitable for instigating the fighting ninjas of Sunagakure.

In fact, it is simply unrealistic for a few of them to rebel against the Sunagakure Fighting Sect ninjas in a short time. Only by forcing ninjas with powerful illusion abilities to control them can the task be completed as quickly as possible.

Moreover, the Uchiha clan members are an excluded group in the military and rarely have contact with other people, so the possibility of leaking secrets is very small.

"I have thought of it, but the Uchiha people are not easy to deal with. Even if we have enhanced curse seals that can temporarily increase our combat effectiveness, it will be very difficult to defeat them. It may not be difficult to defeat those Uchiha ninjas at the chunin level, but jounin level It’s hard to say what the level of Uchiha ninja is.”

Shanzhong Sansan smiled bitterly.

In Konoha, the ninjas of the Uchiha clan have always been the best among the ninjas of the same level. Only a very small number of elite ninjas can defeat the Uchiha ninjas of the same level.

After the three of them obtained the strengthening curse seal, their strength reached the jounin level, but in fact there was still a gap between them and the real jounin. It would take some time to transform the temporary power into their own power.

"What are you afraid of? The three of us are one, and single combat is not what we are good at. Besides, didn't Kirito-sama say that we can mobilize all the resources he has on hand, and those lazy guys can just use it. When the time comes, Maybe we won’t need to play in person.”

Nara Suzaku immediately gave Yamanaka Sansan a reassurance, and then thought of Shiranui Takeshi and others who had just left, and sneered.

After hearing what Nara Suzaku said, Akimichi Shitō and Yamanaka Sansan gradually smiled on their faces. The three of them looked at each other, and their smiles gradually became abnormal.

With the goal in mind, Nara Suzaku and the other three began to work enthusiastically. The three of them first gathered together, and then found Uchiha Feng, and then used him to quickly start work and get in touch with other Uchiha ninjas in the military camp.

Soon, within two days, most of the Uchiha ninjas in the military camp secretly contacted Nara Suzaku and others.

However, even though Nara Suzaku and others kept in low-key and secret contact with the Uchiha clan, they still attracted the attention of some interested people in the military camp.

In a room where many biological instruments were placed in the underground building of the Oasis Military Camp, Orochimaru was looking at an experimental subject covered with spells with a look of obsession.

The subject of the experiment was a Sunagakure ninja. He was screaming in pain because his body was eroded by the curse seal, and his whole body was shaking. He kept struggling violently, and the chains that bound him made a clanging sound.

Unfortunately, no matter how loudly he shouted and struggled, no one would come to save him, let alone escape from Orochimaru.

After a few minutes, the subject's shouts gradually weakened until they disappeared.

The subject is dead.

"It failed again, but this time the experimental subject persisted for 12 seconds longer. It seems that my research direction is correct."

Orochimaru didn't care about the life and death of the experimental subjects. He looked at the timer in his hand and said excitedly.

Ever since he discovered the existence of the strengthened curse seal on Hinata Karei, and discovered that the curse seal involved natural energy and more advanced energy magic chakra, he began to secretly conduct research on the strengthened curse seal.

He secretly collected the remaining chakra after Hua Lian activated the strengthened curse seal every time, and combined it with the curse seal technique he had mastered. After many failures, he finally created a strengthened curse seal of his own.

But the enhanced curse seal he developed is only a defective product so far.

Once activated, there is no way to stop it, and it is extremely dangerous. It will seriously overdraw the vitality of the experimental subject. Although it is true that the experimental subject can gain extremely strong power in a short period of time, this immature strengthening curse seal technique has no effect at all. law is put into use.

In this regard, Orochimaru was not discouraged, because he had vaguely grasped the core of this enhanced curse seal technique.

The reason why his enhanced curse seal technique is so different from Kirito's enhanced curse seal technique is probably due to the lack of some crucial medium. It is precisely because of this medium that natural energy and chakra can be smoothly integrated into each other. Together.

"I really want to dissect a ninja with a strengthened curse seal to see what's inside the strengthened curse seal."

Orochimaru couldn't help but feel restless when he thought that the enhanced curse seal technique concealed the key that allowed him to peek into the celestial arts.

If he wanted to thoroughly analyze Kirito's enhanced curse seal technique, the best way was of course to start with people who had enhanced curse seals. He was confident that as long as he was given some time to study these people with enhanced curse seals, Even if Kirito's enhanced curse seal technique cannot be perfectly replicated, a major breakthrough will be achieved.

Unfortunately, he could only think about this thought for the time being, because he found that the power of Kirito's soul was hidden in the curse seals of everyone who had enhanced curse seal skills. Once he attacked the curse seals on these people, Kirito will be alerted immediately.

Orochimaru doesn't want to break with Kirito yet, let alone be chased by Kirito, so for the time being, he can only patiently conduct research as he is now.

In fact, he had another better way to obtain Kirito's enhanced curse seal technique, and that was to ask Kirito for advice without shame.

But he did not choose to do this because he felt that it was not interesting enough. Rather than reaching out to Kirito to get it directly, he preferred to rely on his own power to copy it from Kirito's hand and then improve it to be more powerful.

Only in this way did he find it interesting.

Orochimaru would not waste time on anything that was not challenging.

Orochimaru quickly came to his senses. He used Fire Release to dispose of the body with ease, and then carefully cleaned all the experimental tools.

When he was about to leave, he suddenly found someone breaking into his laboratory. He immediately stared at a shadow in the laboratory with his golden vertical pupils that lit up reddish in the dim environment.

The next moment, a Konoha ANBU wearing a monkey mask slowly walked out of the shadows.

"I should have said before that no one can come in here without my permission."

Orochimaru stared at the Konoha Anbu in front of him and said coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, several long snakes shot out from the clothes on his left hand, trapping the ANBU of Konoha. Several snake heads stared at the ANBU ninja with deep malice.

As long as ANBU ninja dared to act rashly, they would immediately pierce the opponent's skin with poisonous stingers and inject fatal venom into the opponent's body.

"I'm very sorry, Lord Orochimaru, please forgive my recklessness, but the matter is urgent, and you haven't come out of the laboratory for the past two days, so I have to take this step. There is something strange about Tohsaka Kirito's men."

The ANBU ninja ignored the ferocious snake heads in front of him and explained in a cold tone.

When Orochimaru heard what the other party said, his heart moved and he asked: "What about others?"

"Tohsaka Kirito has been focusing on training and has not done anything unusual himself. However, his subordinates have been secretly in contact with the Uchiha ninja here recently. His subordinates suspect that they are preparing a plan to sabotage the peace talks."

The ANBU ninja answered truthfully.

"The Uchiha clan? Apart from them, his subordinates didn't find anyone else? Also, do you know what they said?"

Orochimaru said in surprise.

"Nara Suzaku and others have only met secretly with the Uchiha clan in the past two days. As for the content of their conversation, we don't know yet. We only know that they competed in an inaccessible place, and the winner and loser both lost and lost."

The ANBU ninja continued with additional explanations.

"Only looking for people from the Uchiha clan, and it's on the shelves. It seems that there are very important things for these Uchiha clan people to do, so next, you want to say that all these Uchiha ninjas apply to do it. Isn’t that the mission?”

After receiving the explanation, Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly, licked his lips with his long tongue in excitement, and sneered.

"Lord Orochimaru is absolutely right. These Uchiha ninjas who have been in private contact with Nara Suzaku and others have recently taken on missions and gone out. Our people tried to follow them secretly, but most of them were lost. , some people have also lost contact.”

The ANBU ninja was shocked when he heard this and said with a little respect.

"Sure enough, this kid is not a peaceful master. Go and inform the people over at Sunagakure so that they can prepare in advance."

Orochimaru continued.

With that said, he took back the long snake that was bound to the ANBU ninja.

When the ANBU ninja heard Orochimaru say this, he did not move immediately, but continued to look at Orochimaru.

"What? Do you have any objections to my order, or do you want to do something else?"

When Orochimaru saw that the ANBU ninja did not immediately obey the order, Orochimaru's eyes quickly turned cold, and this time he revealed cold murderous intent.

He had already heard about the Konoha ANBU from the Third Generation, so he knew that the ANBU ninja in front of him was still obeying the Third Generation's orders on the surface, but in fact his allegiance was to his teacher's good son.

It was obvious that the ANBU ninja was dissatisfied with the order he had just given.

To be precise, it was Takashi Sarutobi, the man behind this ANBU ninja, who was dissatisfied with his orders.

But who is Orochimaru, how could he be willing to be plotted and used by a weakling?

Let him personally deal with Kirito?

Don't even think about it.

For the old man's sake, the most he could do was remind Sunagakure.

"Ha~"

Seeing that Orochimaru's attitude was very tough, the ANBU ninjas did not intend to give any other orders, so they had no choice but to obey the orders attentively, and then used the teleportation technique to disappear in place.

"A group of weak people want to change the will of the strong, and they also want to treat the strong as fools. They are really like clowns, and they don't know their own abilities."

Orochimaru stared at the place where the ANBU ninja had just disappeared and sneered.
