Naruto: First Love

Chapter 49: Orochimaru Arrives

Huo Wu did not explain in detail to the people in Team 3 why she would no longer be a ninja.

In fact, not being a ninja now is a very good choice. After all, it will be safer and you will have a greater chance of saving your life in the next events.

However, she didn't just want to save her life.

Although she was very afraid of death, because the Sarutobi clan was truly kind to her, she wanted to save them, and even if she did not have the ability, she would still want to help.

The people in the third team didn't get an answer and were very disappointed. Huo Wu thought about it and thought, they all have to take part in the Chunin Exam, they must be very tired, right? They are also very passionate, should we give them a boost?

As soon as this idea came into her mind, she threw it out.

After the three men left, Huo Wu met another wave of ninjas from the Kusagakure Village. No, to be precise, she met Orochimaru and his gang who were disguised as Kusagakure ninjas.

If you want to know how Huo Wu came into being, it is naturally because of her long tongue that sticks out from time to time and her pale skin.

Huo Wu said, are these people stupid? You can tell from that long tongue that they are not good people at all, not to mention that they keep staring at the Konoha villagers coming and going with malicious eyes.

However, Huo Wu was afraid of snakes, so she ran away quickly at the first opportunity.

Seeing Huo Wu running away, the three Grass Ninjas looked a little surprised.

"She seems very afraid of me." Orochimaru said in a hoarse voice, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"She's just an ordinary Konoha villager. There's no need to care about her." A Grass Ninja next to him took over and said indifferently.

"An ordinary Konoha villager?" Orochimaru sneered, his voice sounding like a ghost.

That's not necessarily true. Running that fast is not a speed that an ordinary villager can possess.

But Orochimaru didn't care, he was just afraid of him. As far as he knew, there were people who were afraid of him everywhere, whether in Konoha or the base.

The villagers of Konoha used to respect him, but now they are really afraid and hate him. If it weren't for him...

Forget it, I can solve these problems when I come back this time.

Orochimaru thought, Konoha is going to be destroyed anyway, and dear Sarutobi teacher is about to die, it's really... exciting to think about it.

……

After Huo Wu left quickly, she met Konohamaru, Udon and Moegi.

The three men were crouching in a square 'camouflage' and were heading towards the streets one by one.

"Konohamaru!" Huo Wu called them.

Konohamaru ignored her and ran faster with the two little guys.

Huo Wu's mouth twitched. What was he doing? Was he hiding from her? Was Konohamaru stupid? She just wanted to call him and give Konohamaru a gift.

"Konohamaru, wait a moment, I have a gift for you."

"Who wants your gift? Humph, ugly woman, I don't want your gift!" An arrogant and disdainful voice came from the square 'disguise', and it ran faster.

An angry "井" character appeared on Huo Wu's forehead. She clenched her fists and endured for a long time before she took action.

Damn it, what's so ugly about her? Why does this bastard always call her an ugly woman or look down on her every time he sees her? It seems like she needs to dress up!

As she thought about this, they had already disappeared from the street. Huo Wu secretly shook her head and thought, forget it, never mind.

I was carrying the bag and just turned an intersection when I saw Sasuke. He was walking quite fast and I didn't know what he was doing.

Huo Wu rolled her eyes and thought, since there was nothing wrong, why not follow and take a look?
Although Sasuke is fast, Huo Wu can still keep up.

She saw Sasuke climbed up a tree and squatted there, wondering what he was thinking.

I followed him and was just wondering whether to say hello when I heard Sasuke's voice: "Why are you following me?"

Although she was discovered, Huo Wu was not embarrassed at all and walked out confidently.

"Nothing, just checking on you guys after not seeing each other for a few days."

Sasuke snorted coldly, saying in a bad tone: "Look at us? Didn't you stop being a ninja? Why are you still thinking about us?"

The smile on Huo Wu's lips froze and she also climbed up the tree, but a little higher than where Sasuke was standing.

After hesitating for a while, Huo Wu said, "Didn't Kakashi tell you? It was the Third-generation grandfather who didn't allow me to continue being a ninja."

"Why?" There was still some resentment and reluctance in Sasuke's voice.

Huo Wu thought that she must have had an illusion. Sasuke had always been proud, so how could he be reluctant? His heart was filled with revenge.

"Do you still remember the Orochimaru I told you about?" Huo Wu threw a bottle of water to him with a long look in her eyes.

"Remember." Huo Wu once said that he was one of the most dangerous people.

"He's here." Huo Wu stared into Sasuke's eyes and said word by word. "For the Sharingan, and also for..."

She still didn't finish the last sentence.

"For what?" Sasuke asked anxiously, "For you?"

"No, of course not." Huo Wu shook her head. Why would Sasuke think so? Who is Orochimaru? Why would he come to Konoha for her?
She and Orochimaru are now just people on two parallel lines with no intersection at all. Why would the other party come to Konoha for her?
But what Sasuke thought of was the Sharingan.

Orochimaru came for the Sharingan, so does that mean that both herself and Huo Wu are Orochimaru's targets?

But that's not necessarily the case. Few people know about Huo Wu's Sharingan, and no one knows that Huo Wu is a descendant of the Uchiha clan. Huo Wu is safe for the time being.

Does that mean Orochimaru came here for him?
Sasuke thought about this and suddenly understood why Huo Wu's eyes were so complicated.

When Huo Wu first saw him, her eyes were filled with complexity, worry, fear, terror, and regret...

Why do you have regrets? Are you afraid of Orochimaru? Are you worried about yourself? Then what do you regret? Regret that you can't become a ninja?

Maybe the Sandai knew the purpose of Orochimaru's visit, so he didn't let Huo Wu take part in the Chunin Exam and didn't let her continue to be a ninja? Listening to what Huo Wu said when she mentioned the Sandai before, the Sandai wanted to protect Huo Wu, right?
In fact, this is the best thing for Huo Wu, Sasuke thought.
Anyway, I am an Avenger and I have to be a ninja. Even if I know there is danger, I must face it.

Huo Wu seemed to understand him very well and did not refute him. She supported him in seeking revenge, right? After all, they still had some of the same blood flowing in their veins.

"Sasuke, now that Naruto has grown up, he is capable of becoming your partner. I hope you can remember this bond, never forget the mission in the Land of Waves, and never turn your butcher knife against your partner." Huo Wu thought, since she already had some understanding of Sasuke, she would try her best to persuade him.

Sasuke froze, not understanding why Huo Wu kept saying things like that, and wanted to continue asking, but Huo Wu interrupted him again.

"Don't ask me too much. You will know why I said this later. I may not be able to stop you, but even if you betray Naruto, Team 7, and Konoha in the future, as long as you don't attack Team 7 or Naruto, I will pretend that I didn't see it."

Team 7 can be considered as her bond, right?
