Chapter 67 Domineering Senior Brother

After buying some wine and arriving at Orochimaru's mansion, I discovered that Orochimaru was not there at all. Gen Uchiha was not polite and went straight in through the window. Then he found a place to sit down and silently refine chakra.

About half an hour later, Gen Uchiha heard a movement outside and opened the door to see that it was Anko who had arrived.

"Where's the teacher?"

"Not here."

"Oh, I didn't expect that the teacher would lose the election. What a surprise!"

Anko followed Gen Uchiha into the house, and then sat down with a depressed expression and a dejected tone.

"It's not like this if you can't become a disciple of Hokage, right?" Uchiha Gen said calmly.

"Hey, that's the Hokage disciple."

Seeing Uchiha Gen's calm look, Anko was unhappy, sat up straight and emphasized.

"Then I suggest you become Minato-senpai's disciple. With Orochimaru-sensei's abilities, you should be able to operate successfully."

"No, I don't want it."

Anko shook her head like a rattle, it was more important to remain a disciple of the teacher than to become a disciple of Hokage.

"Okay, let's go to the market to buy some things before Orochimaru-sensei comes back."

"You know how to cook?" Hongdou looked incredulous.

There are indeed not many men in this world who can cook.

"What do you think?" Gen Uchiha rolled his eyes.

"That's right, you are just like me..."

"So what are you going to cook tonight?"

Uchiha Genmo rubbed his chin and said, "I heard that Mr. Orochimaru likes eggs. How about making oden tonight?"

"Yeah."

Hongdou is also a rough person. She was depressed just now, but now she can't help but swallow her saliva when she thinks of delicious food, and she is immersed in fantasy.

"Let's go."

"Um."

The two of them went to a nearby vegetable market, store, or supermarket to buy ingredients, and started getting busy when they came back.

Hongdou can also cook, but due to his personality, his cooking methods are too rough and the taste is only okay, but there is still no problem in getting started.

At about 7:30 in the evening, Orochimaru, who had just finished communicating with Danzo, emerged from the ground in the yard. He was slightly startled when he saw the lights on in his house. Then he thought of something and the corner of his mouth curled up slightly.

Opening the door, Orochimaru walked in.

"Teacher, you are back."

Anko, who heard the commotion, ran out of the kitchen and greeted enthusiastically.

"Um."

Orochimaru nodded slightly, and when he saw another figure in the kitchen, he was a little surprised and said: "Xuan is here too?"

"Yes, Xuan is making oden. I also bought a lot of eggs that you like, teacher. You will be able to eat soon."

Orochimaru felt warm in his heart, but on the surface he said calmly: "You are interested."

Ten minutes later, the three of them were sitting around eating together in the dining room. There was steaming and fragrant oden on the table, with four compartments for boiled eggs, green vegetables, meat, and fungi.

"Orochimaru-sensei, would you like some?"

Gen Uchiha unscrewed the cap of the wine bottle and raised his eyebrows.

Orochimaru hesitated for a moment and then nodded.

He doesn't like drinking, because alcohol will affect his calmness and rationality, but today is a special day, so he can have a drink.

His teacher's unexpected behavior really disappointed him. He had been fighting for Konoha through life and death and fighting for the rest of his life. What on earth was that?

"You want to drink too?"

Anko, who was enjoying her meal, saw Gen Uchiha pouring wine for his teacher and then for himself, with a look of surprise on his face.

"What, do you have any objections?" Uchiha Xuan glanced at Anko lightly.

"No, you are not of age yet, and alcohol is one of the three taboos of ninjas."

"so what?"

"Anko, sometimes rules are important, but sometimes they are worthless."

“When is it worthless?”

"When I'm not willing to comply," Uchiha Gen said calmly.

Senior brother, you are so domineering!

Hongdou sighed in his heart, then secretly glanced at his teacher. Seeing that his teacher didn't say anything, he mustered up the courage and said, "I want to drink too."

Gen Uchiha looked at Orochimaru.

"It's okay to have a drink once in a while, rules are really worthless sometimes."

After speaking, Orochimaru picked up the goblet and took a sip, then picked up the chopsticks to pick up the eggs without chewing them, and swallowed them in one gulp like a snake.

Hearing this, Genya Uchiha poured a glass for Anko.

"Come on, let's touch one together, and you can do whatever you want from now on." Uchiha Gen raised the wine glass and said.

Ding, the three people's wine glasses collided on the steaming pot, a clear and sweet sound sounded, and then they each drank.

Tsk tsk tsk... Anko smashed it into his mouth. Although it was not as good as sweets, it tasted pretty good.

Then the three of them ate, drank, and chatted together. On the way, Anko even comforted Orochimaru. Orochimaru didn't reply, but nodded slightly.

Uchiha Gen didn't say anything to comfort him, because he knew Orochimaru didn't need it.

Anko's understanding of Orochimaru was only superficial. The position of Hokage was not as important to Orochimaru as she thought.

Halfway through the oden, Anko was already drunk and hazy.

Wine doesn't taste like a thirst-quenching drink, and when the stamina comes up, I can't hold it back.

After taking the somewhat drunken Anko to the guest bedroom upstairs and settling her down, Gen Uchiha returned to the dining room and sat down.

"Teacher Orochimaru, I need your help with something."

"explain."

Ding, Orochimaru picked up the wine glass and touched it with Uchiha Gen. A strange blush appeared on his pale, bloodless face that looked like dead skin, like a paper man's blush.

"I want to purchase a batch of research equipment. You should have channels, right?"

If you want to understand the evolutionary nature of the Sharingan, professional research equipment is essential. Even if you can see through the Byakugan, the observation is not comprehensive and accurate enough.

"What kind of research equipment do you want to buy?"

"Research equipment that can comprehensively observe and detect various data of the human body."

"You want to do human experiments?"

Orochimaru shook the crimson wine glass, his expression half-smiling but not smiling, and coupled with the slight blush on his pale face, it looked quite strange.

"Well, I want to verify a certain conjecture of mine."

Uchiha Gen didn't want to hide it from Orochimaru at all, but he couldn't. Based on Orochimaru's scientific research experience, he could guess the general research direction just by looking at the experimental equipment.

"Then you have to be careful not to be discovered by others, otherwise you will have no choice but to become a traitor."

"Teacher, unlike you, my research project is covered by the research project assigned by Konoha's high-level officials."

"It's not easy to find out. If you find out, there will be excuses, and high-level officials will deal with the aftermath."

"Unless...I want to leave Konoha, no one can force me..."

Speaking of this, Orochimaru didn't know what he thought of, and he was in a daze.

"I understand, teacher, I will be careful."

Uchiha Gen felt something in his heart when he saw this, and cautiously asked: "Teacher, are you thinking of leaving Konoha?"

Orochimaru looked at this like-minded disciple...

The disciple in front of me probably knows him better than Tsunade, Jiraiya, and the teacher. There are very few secrets between them, and their true identities are known to each other.

"Um."

"Since you can't become Hokage, there's not much point in staying in Konoha. Instead, you will be constrained in doing experimental research, especially after the fourth generation comes to power."

"With the fourth generation's behavior, Danzo will never be allowed to conduct various experiments unscrupulously, and the funds will be greatly reduced."

"My experimental research will also be greatly affected."

"In this case, it is better to cut off the ties with Konoha and go out to find a place where you can conduct experiments and research as you like..."

Gen Uchiha was shocked when he heard this, and a certain guess emerged in his mind.
