Chapter 156 Everyone has their own plans

"What's wrong Orochimaru?"

Orochimaru looked gloomy: "Did you ask Shisui to use another god on me?"

Xia Mu nodded and said naturally: "Yes."

Orochimaru laughed angrily at Natsuki's attitude: "You actually admitted it directly."

Xia Mu said helplessly: "It takes too long to gain your trust. I think it will waste a lot of time if we are wary of each other."

"Although I used other gods on you, I just skipped the process of establishing trust. After all, I have always regarded you as a collaborator these years."

Orochimaru's expression softened slightly: "Aren't you worried about me finding out?"

Natsuki walked up and hooked Orochimaru's shoulder: "There is a saying that no one is perfect in the world when it comes to his deeds but not his heart."

"Besides you, is there any other person in the world who can complete my projects? We are already pressed for time, so skipping the trust-building stage will save us time."

Orochimaru snorted coldly and shook off Natsuki's hand: "Then you can tell that the future is fake?"

Xia Mu shook his head: "This is true, otherwise why would I travel across mountains and rivers to find you for cooperation."

"I can't find another pure scientist like you in this world, and no one can compare with your scientific research ability."

Natsuki is not just blowing the rainbow fart, but he really thinks so.

Others compete for blood, father, and power.

Only Orochimaru relies on science.

Although Orochimaru is not the kind of person who gets happy when he is praised, he felt that Natsuki sincerely admired him.

The resentment in Orochimaru's heart dissipated, and Natsuki was still very discerning.

But if Orochimaru wants to forgive Natsuki so directly, it will be difficult for him to save face.

He said with a cold face: "What are you going to give me to explain this matter?"

"Ah, well..." Natsuki's eyes rolled around, and he could already see that Orochimaru no longer cared about other gods' affairs.

After all, the two sides have cooperated well over the years. The topics and research directions Natsuki brought were of Orochimaru's interest, and a lot of knowledge was revealed by Natsuki.

But the face has to go to Orochimaru.

"Let's do this first...and then let him be your subordinate, which will be considered an apology to you."

Natsuki told Orochimaru his thoughts.

Orochimaru's eyes flashed when he heard this: "Are you telling the truth!?"

Natsuki shrugged: "When would I make such a joke?"

"Is this also one of your abilities?"

Xia Mu said: "It can be used once. If you can reproduce it, that would be great."

Orochimaru has become accustomed to Natsuki's endless surprises.

I didn’t expect a bigger one today.

"Okay! I agree! If you can do it, then Shisui's use of other gods to me will be forgotten." Orochimaru said with a smile.

Xia Mu chuckled: "Don't worry, as long as you solve the problem I gave you last time, this matter will be completely fine."

"The old man has guessed that I have been raped by another god. How are you going to deal with it?" Orochimaru said.

Xia Mu touched his chin: "Although it's a bit sudden, it's over now, you can swing it."

"The third generation will still feel that the temptation of the position of Hokage is extremely huge."

Orochimaru chuckled upon hearing this, although being the Hokage of Konoha would indeed bring him a lot of conveniences.

But his ultimate goal is no longer something that the mere Hokage can satisfy.

"Obito recently attacked Uchiha and took back his Sharingan. Our pace will speed up in the future."

…

Hokage's office.

"Old man, since Orochimaru you are worried about is under control, why are you still contacting Orochimaru?"

Jiraiya didn't understand why the Third Hokage did this.

The third generation rolled his eyes at Jiraiya: "Do you want to stay in Konoha Village forever?"

Jiraiya smiled awkwardly, it was okay for a short time, but for a long time, he couldn't be suffocated to death.

Jiraiya's face was a little confused: "If Orochimaru falls to Uchiha, you will lose everything."

"Orochimaru is not that simple."

After the Third Hokage said this, Jiraiya's contact frog rang.

"Sandaime-sama, this is Orochimaru." Lia Frog said.

The third generation nodded and asked the other side to pick up.

"Old man, I accept your favor for this matter." Orochimaru's voice came, as if the matter had been investigated and dealt with.

"Orochimaru, what are you going to do?" Sandai asked tentatively.

A somewhat unclear voice came from Orochimaru: "Uchiha can still be used."

The first thing that comes to Sandai's mind is the benefits brought by Xiamu Catering.

The third generation turned away from these thoughts and asked: "Orochimaru, can you return to the village?"

Jiraiya rolled his eyes beside him, just wait, Orochimaru will laugh at you soon.

But the expected jeers didn't come.

Orochimaru was just silent for a moment, and then said: "It's impossible. Danzo gave me so many scapegoats at that time, and the villagers couldn't accept me. That's it..."

Then there was no sound.

The contact frog here said that the connection there has been disconnected.

Jiraiya spread his hands: "Old man, your wish has come true."

The Third Hokage's face was calm, not too frustrated, and he didn't seem to have any emotions because of Orochimaru's rejection.

Orochimaru is not a person who is willing to suffer losses, and Uchiha is afraid that a piece of flesh will be bitten off.

The third generation understands Orochimaru, who is an extreme egoist.

He doesn't care who his collaborators are as long as they provide benefits to himself.

No matter you are Danzo, Uchiha, or Konoha.

It is precisely because of Orochimaru's bottomless behavior that Orochimaru cannot control it at all.

That's why the Fourth Hokage gave Namikaze Minato.

The situation is different now. Uchiha is powerful, and apart from Jiraiya, there is no one in Konoha Village who can even compete with the Mangekyo Sharingan.

Danzo's ambition can no longer be contained. There must be other survivors of that experiment.

The prestige of the Hokage clan has been decreasing year by year over the years, and Natsuki Uchiha's move to take over as clan leader this time shows that his ambitions are not small.

Even if we can survive the current situation, the situation after that will not be optimistic.

Orochimaru can come back, and Konoha can increase its capital against Uchiha.

The Otogakure Village established by Tian Nokuni has completely highlighted Orochimaru's ability.

Orochimaru had been plotted by a genjutsu before, and this matter was not easy to uncover.

Taking a step back, even if Orochimaru and Uchiha have an ambiguous relationship.

If Orochimaru is willing to return to the village, Konoha Village can give whatever Uchiha can give, and Konoha Village can give more. Then don't worry about Orochimaru's position.

Konoha Hokage's position, power and interests are not comparable to those of an Uchiha collaborator. How to choose does not seem to be a difficult question.

The Sandaime is almost 70 years old, and his energy is not as good as before.

Now if a successor is not chosen, will Konoha have to bear the surname Uchiha?

As long as the Hokage does not fall behind Uchiha, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, or even Tsunade, any of them can be the Hokage, and the three generations can accept it.
