Chapter 35

The sky gradually became gloomy, and the forest was dark and quiet, which was a bit scary.

A green tree frog was about to catch the mantis in front of it, and suddenly a subtle snake hissing sound was heard.

Quack!

The tree frog made the last call of its life.

"So, Sasuke already has the two-magatama Sharingan, he is really Itachi's good brother!"

Orochimaru looked at the five people kneeling in front of him and reported the previous situation.

"Lord Orochimaru, our actions have been exposed. Should we continue the previous plan?"

Kimimaro was not surprised that Orochimaru didn't care about the possibility of the plan being exposed or why Kakashi appeared there, but cared about Sasuke.

He just secretly blamed himself for not being able to dedicate himself to Lord Orochimaru.

Since I can't do the meaning of living, then let my death be meaningful.

Lord Orochimaru, I will definitely help you get Sasuke.

"There's no need to go on."

Orochimaru shook his head calmly. Since this plan was exposed, he would just change it. He said to the white-haired man with glasses behind him.

"Kabuto, go to the Takumi Village first."

"Yes!"

Kabuto bowed slightly and retreated, his figure disappearing directly into the woods.

"Kimimaro, take Kidomaru back to the base for treatment first."

Orochimaru saw Kabuto leave without asking anything, and nodded secretly in his heart. Compared with the five people in front of him, it was still easier to use a smart person like Kabuto.

"As for the three of you, bring back more materials in the near future."

Since the plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain was partially destroyed, he had to add more manpower.

Konoha is much stronger than when he left. He must have enough helpers to achieve his goal!

Fortunately, the people who want the third generation to die are not just him and Konoha's enemies.

If Danzo was still alive, I guess I wouldn't need to contact so many helpers.

There is no need to make a fuss at the border.

Hehe~

Old man, God is really helping you.

Orochimaru seemed to have thought of something interesting, and couldn't help grinning.

"Yes!"

After the other three people responded quickly, they left as if they were pardoned. Only Kimimaro stood there without moving, and at his feet was the still unconscious Kidomaru.

"How is the performance of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?"

Although Orochimaru was more concerned about Sasuke, the Nine-Tails was also a variable, and he couldn't help but look at Kimimaro.

"Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?"

Kimimaro was a little puzzled, he didn't know who the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was.

"It's another boy in Kakashi's team, the one with yellow hair."

Orochimaru thought of the configuration of Team 7, and thought to himself that the Sandaime was indeed corrupt, and actually arranged someone with two Sharingans to restrain him.

As for the fact that Naruto was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, it was not a secret to him at all.

"Reporting to the Lord, the current strength of the Nine-Tails should be at the level of an elite Chunin, and his fighting experience is still very immature, but he is very good at using wind escape ninjutsu and instant body jutsu, and his physical skills are also pretty good, so he can barely confront me."

Kimimaro didn't know how to describe Naruto for a while, but he could feel that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was completely different from himself... His eyes were very firm.

That's right, although the emotions seen in the eyes of a complete stranger were a bit nonsense, he felt that it was a kind of firmness.

I just don't know why the Nine-Tails was firm.

As for the battle just now, he certainly let it go, otherwise do you really think he would be stupidly beaten there?

It's because this encounter became a test for Sasuke after meeting Sasuke, so he pretended to be with Naruto, and the focus was still on Sasuke.

"Oh? Is the wind escape ninjutsu good?"

Orochimaru smiled indifferently.

"Maybe we can get in touch with him."

"Now?"

Kimimaro couldn't help but look up and asked. He really wanted to know why Naruto was so determined and what the meaning of his life was.

"No, wait for Konoha's Chunin Exam."

Orochimaru licked the corner of his lips with his long tongue, and there was coldness in his snake eyes.

"When the time comes, you will have plenty of time to communicate with him."

"Yes!"

Kimimaro knelt on one knee, not caring at all that Orochimaru saw through his mind.

"Your blood disease is getting worse and worse. Come back to the base with me to recuperate during this period."

Orochimaru didn't say anything when he saw this. He didn't care what his subordinates thought, as long as he could complete his mission.

"Jūgo has been asking you recently."

Kimimaro nodded when he heard this, stood up and carried Kidomaru slowly.Orochimaru left behind.

…

Frost Village.

The Frost Building is different from the Hokage Building, or different from all the ninja villages in the ninja world.

Because this is a magnificent palace.

There is only one Buddha statue enshrined in the center of the palace. It is golden in color, with the left hand in a fist seal placed on the knee, the right hand with five fingers spread out on the chest, and the solemn statue sitting on the lotus. It is called "Amoghavajra".

On both sides of the "Amoghavajra" statue are nine statues wearing masks. These statues are either human or animal. Some have silk ribbons wrapped around their arms like fairies, and some hold sickles like the god of death.

Under the statue, a monk wearing a light blue monk's robe and a hat with the word "frost" on his head is devoutly knocking on a wooden fish and silently reciting the "Vajra Sutra".

"Lord Shuangying, it's not good!"

A young monk outside the hall rushed into the Tiangu Leiyin Hall in shock. The guards around the hall were surprised by the visitor's loss of composure, but did not stop him.

"Kuangu, what makes you so anxious?"

Shuangying did not turn around, but continued to knock the wooden fish calmly. His voice gently appeared in the young man's heart.

"Report to Lord Shuangying, the Frost Leaf Town on the border between the Frost Country and the Fire Country was invaded by unknown ninjas three hours ago. Now no one in the town survived!"

Kuangu heard the voice in his heart, his emotions gradually stabilized, and he quickly reported what happened on the border in detail.

"Amitabha."

When he heard the tragedy, Shuangying's voice was a little sad.

"Our Frost Country has always advocated peace, but I never thought that we would suffer such a brutal attack. Let's do this..."

Shuangying paused, as if considering who to send to deal with the matter.

"Let Isu Jonin take his Jonin team and run. The mission is S-level."

"Yes! I will notify Isu Jonin immediately!"

Kuanggu felt sorry for Shimokage who always had his back to him and never spoke but communicated with his mind. He thought that after such a big thing, Shimokage would at least turn back.

Speaking of which, he still didn't know what Shimokage looked like.

Of course, these were just a little bit of curiosity. He quickly calmed down and hurriedly asked someone to contact Isu Jonin to go to the border to cooperate with the border troops to deal with this matter.

"Is it finally going to start?"

Shimokage raised his head slightly and looked at the tall Buddha statue above. Under the shadow of the bamboo hat, the mysterious black pattern slowly turned in his blood-red eyes.
