Chapter 98 Separation and Visit (First Order Request)

PS: I just hope that the first order can be two to three hundred. Thank you all book friends.

In other words, they would not encounter him under normal circumstances. Otherwise, Menma would have a headache just thinking about it.

There is no objection among all.

Moonlight Hayate also emphasized the rules of the main competition at the end and asked Menma and others to disband.

As soon as the group left the Forest of Death, they saw Kakashi smiling and waving to them at the exit.

"Oh? Brother Kakashi, did you see that we have all entered the final round of the main competition!"

Naruto also raised his head and chest, and said with a very proud expression.

"Haha, of course I believe you can do this. Otherwise, why would I recommend you to take part in this Chunin Exam?"

Kakashi said with a smile.

As he spoke, he glanced at Sasuke as if casually, but neither Naruto nor Sakura noticed.

But he couldn't escape his numb eyes.

He also knew very well that this was because Kakashi was worried about the curse mark on Sasuke's neck. After they arrived at the tower yesterday, Kakashi appeared once. When he heard that a special mark appeared on the neck of the second pillar, Kakashi Cassie took Sasuke away with a serious face. Sakura and Naruto only thought that they were going for ordinary examination or treatment, but only Menma knew that with Konoha's current level, it was impossible to break the The curse seal specially carved by Orochimaru, at Kakashi's level, can only temporarily seal the leakage of the curse seal power, and this must rely on Sasuke's own willpower.

Once Sasuke takes the initiative to crave this power.

All seals are useless.

Kakashi knows very well what kind of character Sasuke is. It is natural that he will be concerned and worried.

It is impossible for Sakura and Naruto to know these things at present.

Neither Kakashi nor Sasuke would take the initiative to tell them, and the only one who knew, Menma, would just treat it as unaware.

"Hey, brother Kakashi, shouldn't you say something to celebrate that all of us have entered the final round?"

Naruto came closer, looked at Kakashi with a smile and said.

"Haha, you, of course there is no problem. Today you can eat and drink freely. This is a celebration and a reward!"

Kakashi said, patting Naruto's little head in a funny way.

"Great! This is what you said, so I won't be polite today, Brother Kakashi!"

Naruto shouted with a happy expression on his face.

"Yeah, that's what I said."

When Kakashi saw that Sasuke still had his usual cold expression, there was no special change, and he felt much more relaxed inside.

"Haha, then you have to be prepared, Brother Kakashi, you can do that, right? Sakura? Menma? Sasuke?"

Naruto also couldn't wait to turn his head and look at his three teammates and said.

"Um!"

"snort"

Sakura and Sasuke also replied one after another.

Menma, who was in the back seat, also nodded lightly with a faint smile.

This seems to be a very harmonious scene.

But others didn't notice that there was a crack that completely separated them.

"Yoshi, let's go then!"

Naruto's familiar loud voice fell here.

The setting sun, the elongated shadow of the house, and the five people walking side by side, but at this moment, Kakashi, Naruto, and Sakura couldn't realize that this might be their seventh team. The last group activity.

This may not be called a false friendship, but in Menma's opinion, it is a meaningless and empty bond.

Be it Sakura or Kakashi.

Beneath Menma's fake smile, there was no place in his heart.

The same goes for Naruto.

They are just related by blood.

Unlike Minato and Kushina, who had given him life in this life, let alone this so-called younger brother, he was destined to be his enemy in the future.

After that night in the Land of Waves.

Menma has completely separated him from these people in his heart. Only Sasuke will be slightly different, but the future still depends on the choices between them.

It is impossible to make a decision now.

After finishing this so-called reward banquet with a false gentle attitude, Menma returned to his residence and welcomed a special guest.

"Humph, since we're already here, why bother hiding aside?"

In Menma's opinion, this was a clear chakra fluctuation like a bright light in the dark night. Almost the moment he approached his home, Menma detected the aura of the visitor.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, it seems that Orochimaru-sama really didn't overestimate you. Menma-kun, you are only 12 years old, and you can have such a perception. Is this also the power of the Nine-Tails? Or is it Menma? What are your abilities as a member of the Uzumaki clan?"

At the end of the corridor.

At first glance, there was no one in the dark corner. Just as these words fell, a straight figure appeared in Menma's eyes.

Silver hair, black-rimmed glasses.

And that familiar fake smile.

This figure is none other than Orochimaru's right-hand man, Kabuto Yakushi.

"Huh? Konoha's forehead protector? And Orochimaru-san's aura? Oh, it seems that you are a spy specially arranged by Orochimaru-san in Konoha, right?"

Menma looked at Yakushi Kabuto indifferently with a look of scrutiny, and there was a sharp look in his pupils.

The moment Yakushi Kabuto met Menma's eyes, his heart couldn't help but tighten.

It felt like I was being targeted by something very dangerous.

Originally, Kabuto Yakushi had become extremely curious about Menma when he received the order from his own Lord Orochimaru. As the top person in charge of Orochimaru's external affairs, Kabuto Yakushi knew 100% about Menma's situation. , and it was more or less understanding of such a key part. He really didn't expect that such a young man who clearly seemed to have fully accepted Konoha's education would have such a big change at this stage.

He even dared to meet with their Lord Orochimaru alone, and also proposed to leave Konoha and cooperate with their Lord Orochimaru.

It's not that I don't believe in my own Lord Orochimaru.

It's just a simple human characteristic. Before you see it with your own eyes, you will have some doubts.

But now it seems.

Just such a brief contact.

Yakushi Kabuto could tell that the Uzumaki Menma-kun in front of him was definitely not a good person.

"Yes, as you said, Menma-kun, I am a spy under Lord Orochimaru. My name is Yakushi Kabuto. I will ask Menma-kun for your advice in the future."

Kabuto Yakushi bowed slightly and smiled.
