Chapter 110
“Orochimaru, you are here!”
In the cemetery, Orochimaru, who was kneeling on the tombstone in a daze, raised his head slightly and noticed the movement behind him.
“Huh? Kirito-kun?” He recognized the person and stood up slowly, “Excuse me, do you have something to talk to me about?”
Kirito ran over breathlessly with Uchiha Nen.
“Orochimaru, let’s just be friends, no need to be so polite.” Kirito waved his hand very generously, “Don’t use honorifics when talking to me in the future.”
Orochimaru was slightly stunned. He was just a commoner, and with a gloomy personality, he had basically no friends in school, let alone children from a big family like Uchiha.
But Uchiha Kirito was different. This guy didn’t have the arrogance of a child from a noble family at all. He was very easy-going and didn’t have any airs in his conversation. In addition, his handsome appearance and purple hair that was prettier than a girl made him very popular in the class.
Therefore, he can get along with anyone, and Orochimaru is also his “default” friend.
“Okay, Kirito, what do you want to talk to me about?”
Kirito pulled Uchiha Nen behind him and said, “Today, I want to introduce you to a new friend, that is him, his name is Uchiha Nen, he will enter school next year, you two should have a lot of common topics.”
Another child of the Uchiha clan… Orochimaru’s eyes fell on Nen, thinking.
At the same time, Nen was also looking at Orochimaru in front of him.
The child was dressed in white, pale, with long black hair and narrow eyes. He looked very delicate. Just looking at his face, you can tell that he is a very introverted person.
“Hello… Hello, my name is Uchiha Nen.” Nen mustered up the courage and stretched out his little hand to Orochimaru as Kirito taught him, “N… It’s our first meeting, please take care of me…”
Orochimaru was stunned for a moment, and stretched out his hand belatedly. Although the other party’s eyes were evasive, he still saw a trace of inferiority and cowardice in Nen’s eyes.
That was also what he used to be like.
“Hello, my name is Orochimaru.”
Under Kirito’s gratified gaze, the two children held their hands together.
The three of them returned to the center of the village together. Orochimaru and Nen were both taciturn people, but with the help of Kirito as a glue, the atmosphere did not cool down at all.
Most children are simple-minded, and no one hates making friends, especially special children like Nen and Orochimaru, who are eager to have playmates in their hearts. Therefore, the few of them quickly became familiar with each other.
“Orochimaru, the wind escape technique you showed in training the other day is new to me now. Can you show us some more?” Kirito patted Nian on the back, “This guy is eager to become stronger.”
“Ninjutsu?” Orochimaru thought for a moment and nodded, “Yes, but we have to find a training ground first.”
As they said that, they turned halfway and walked into the Konoha Forest. There was a remote training ground there. According to Orochimaru, that place was basically unattended, and even Nian could sneak in. It could be used as a secret base for them in the future.
They passed through layers of woods, walked along a path with branches, and finally arrived at a slightly shabby training ground.
Although it was simple, the venue was extremely spacious, with targets for throwing, wooden stakes for practice and other equipment.
Nian’s eyes lit up and he couldn’t help stroking his shuriken. Today was definitely his happiest day.
“Okay, this is enough.”
Orochimaru asked the two to stand aside, and then began to make hand seals in a serious manner:
“卯,酉,子,辰,酉.”
Nian watched very carefully, and saw Orochimaru end with the “酉” seal, and then stretched out one hand.
“Wind Style: Air Flow!”
A breeze suddenly blew in front of him, shaking the branches and trembling the leaves.
Orochimaru took a breath and explained: “This is a ninjutsu scroll that my father left me. When it is practiced to a powerful level, it can blow up a strong wind and make all the shuriken shot at the caster ineffective.”
“Hehe, let me show you my skills too!”
Kirito rolled up his sleeves and made hand seals neatly, “Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!”
He put all his strength into it, making his little face red, and then opened his mouth towards the empty field.
“Huh.”
A cluster of red flames seemed to flash in the pan. Although it was only the size of a watermelon, it also slightly raised the temperature in the air.
“This is the first ninjutsu my sister taught me.” Kirito was panting with exhaustion, and at the same time he put his hands on his hips with some pride.
“So powerful…” Nian was stunned, and a deep envy flashed in his eyes, but he suddenly felt lost. His father… what did he leave behind for him?
At this time, Orochimaru came over and touched his shoulder”If you want to learn, I can definitely teach you.”
“Yes, me too.” Kirito smiled and hugged Nian’s neck, and suddenly changed the subject, “But first, we still have to confirm your chakra attribute. You are Uchiha, so you must have the attribute of fire escape, but I don’t know if you can learn Orochimaru’s wind escape?”
“This is indeed a problem. Chakra test paper is needed to test chakra attributes…” Orochimaru touched his chin, “Although you will enter school next year, seeing that you are so eager to become stronger, I can think of a way to use chakra test paper…”
“Thank you very much!” Nian Li He bowed with a look of joy in his eyes, “If I can master these ninjutsu, I will definitely become a powerful ninja!”
Orochimaru sighed, “Although I don’t want to discourage you, in my opinion, these ninjutsu are nothing.”
“Why?”
“My father’s wind escape can easily cut rocks, but he still died in the war.” Orochimaru lowered his eyes, “If a certain ninjutsu can make oneself invulnerable, transcend the boundaries of life, aging, sickness and death, and reach… immortality, that is a truly powerful technique!”
At this moment, an invisible wave rippled, like a breeze blowing across the training ground.
The three little ones pricked up their ears at the same time, and the breeze brought a faint voice:
“What is your trick?”
This was a slightly low voice. The moment they heard it, Kirito and Nian looked at each other at the same time, and they saw shock in each other’s eyes.
“Don’t be nervous, it’s just a simple barrier technique, which can block the breath and weaken the wind to the greatest extent. You don’t want Konoha to know that we are fighting here, right?” A young man’s voice responded to him.
“Humph, you don’t really think that this is just a simple sparring match.”
“Sorry, in my eyes, this is not even a warm-up.”
“How arrogant.”
Orochimaru immediately took the hands of the two, quietly crouched down, and lay down in the lush grass.
Kirito carefully touched Orochimaru’s shoulder, raised his hands at the same time, and made a “run away” gesture.
Orochimaru shook his head cautiously, motioned the two to look east, and then placed his fingers across his throat and pulled slowly.
The thought was so tense for the first time, and carefully opened a gap and looked in the direction pointed by Orochimaru.
Across the dozens of meters of woods, two figures facing each other could be vaguely seen.
