The Senju remnants of the Uchiha clan

Chapter 152 Giving You to Jiraiya

Two days later.

"Shiratori-kun, nice to see you again."

It was at the experimental base in the Land of Grass where they first met in private, and Orochimaru warmly welcomed Shiratori.

He looked at the large group of people behind Bai Niao and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

This... how can you bring your family with you when you meet...

Shiratori found a chair and sat down, picking up a glass jar on the table and playing with it casually: "Stop talking nonsense, Orochimaru, what difficulties are you having now?"

Orochimaru chuckled: "A lot of money... and some experimental materials."

He hadn't forgotten that some of the experimental materials collected by Shimura Danzo were originally his according to the agreement, but they were withheld by this naturally evil Uchiha brat in front of him...

"Okay, I'll double the research funding that Shimura Danzo gives you."

Shiratori nodded and changed the subject:
"But I have to be frank with you. Some of your experimental directions must be determined by me. If you fail to produce satisfactory experimental results for a long time, I will beat you half to death and tie you up and give you to Jiraiya as a gift!"

"……Can."

"besides……"

Shiratori pointed at Yakushi Kabuto:

"You must teach Dou everything you know. Although he is mine, he will also become an excellent laboratory assistant...

From now on, let Kabuto handle all the communication between us, and stop using idiots like Ken Micheng who dares to pass letters to me in front of the Anbu!
I will check your progress regularly, and if I find that you are not paying attention to my teaching, I will tie you up and hand you over to Jiraiya."

Orochimaru:"……"

Why is it Jiraiya again? Did you make some kind of deal with that idiot?
He turned to look at Yakushi Kabuto and gave what he thought was a kind smile.

He was still very satisfied with Dou.

At this time, he noticed Xianglin and her son who had been hiding behind everyone.

"Are they... the Uzumaki clan?" Orochimaru's eyes sparkled, and he couldn't help but lick his lips: "Shiratori-kun, since you're here, you actually brought me a gift? Is this new experimental material?"

Hearing this, the mother and son retreated to the corner with horror.

"What a mess! Are you suffering from an occupational disease? I rescued them from the Kusagakure Village. I warn you not to go after them, or I will kill you—"

"Yes, yes, if you dare to touch them, just tie me up and hand me over to that idiot Jiraiya..." Orochimaru sighed.

It would be such a waste if such good experimental materials were not given to me.

And speaking of Kusagakure Village...

"Shiratori-kun, I heard that two days ago a masked maniac broke into the Kusagakure Village and killed all the Kusagakure ninjas, including the leader and the elders. Half of the village was also destroyed. Do you know about this?"

"I don't know." Bai Niao remained calm.

"On the same day, the Kizuna prison in the Land of Grass also suffered a devastating attack. A black energy bomb flattened the entire prison. This attack was very similar to the Tailed Beast Ball..."

Orochimaru looked at Shiratori's expression seriously.

"A tailed beast? Then go investigate which ninja village's Jinchūriki is missing. What's the use of telling me?"

"Some survivors of Kusagakure Village said they saw the murderer with a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan, and could summon a golden half-giant... Shiratori-kun, isn't it a coincidence that this ability is very similar to yours?"

White Bird: "..."

I regret it. I should have asked Yata to give Kusagakure Village a Tailed Beast Ball after blowing up Kizuna Castle...

But...it doesn't matter!
Because he was wearing a mask!

Is that just a simple black rag? It's a face for Kusagakure Village and Sarutobi Hiruzen!

As long as they didn't see his face, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Konoha Village could deny it... and they could only deny it. Could they dare to hand him over?

Moreover, the remaining forces of Kusagakure Village probably don't have the courage to choose to fight to the death. After all, it's already very difficult to survive...

Looking at Shiratori's calm expression, Orochimaru was deeply impressed.

Uchiha...are really a bunch of lunatics!
"By the way...Shiratori-kun, is our cooperation enjoyable?"

"Just say what you want to say, no need to beat around the bush."

"I will teach you diligently, and I will do my best to complete your experimental tasks, so if I need your help in the future..."

Shiratori looked at Orochimaru's expression and suddenly thought of an incident that happened a few years later...

"Once." He held up a finger. "I can help you within my ability, but only once, and don't go too far."

"You're so stingy... Only once?" Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth.

"Don't forget it."

"Yes, of course! Hehe...are you leaving?"

Shiratori stood up and asked the others, except Kabuto, to follow him, "Well, I'm going to Loulan in the desert of the Kingdom of Wind to do something."

"Loulan? According to my information, there is an interesting person wandering in the desert, and he seems to have some interest in that city..."

.........

Yellow sand fills the sky.

The red-haired boy walked out of a village that he had turned into ruins with his own hands.

"What a desolate village! There is almost nothing that can be used as materials." He muttered to himself.

It seems... I should go to Loulan and try my luck.

It has always been famous for its abundance of puppet materials. Even though the country has been destroyed, there must be some good stuff left there...

"Ok?"

He was slightly stunned and looked forward——

A figure covered by yellow sand stood in the distance, as if... waiting for him?

The figure over there is exactly the white bird.

"What kind of bullshit information is this, Orochimaru! The error is so huge that it made me run for two more days..."

Shiratori looked at the Scorpion of the Red Sand walking towards him from a distance and couldn't help but smile.

He remembered that in the original timeline, when the Akatsuki organization was recruiting Scorpion, there was no prior planning and no ideological identification. It was purely relying on Konan's "physical persuasion"!
If Xiaonan can do it, he can certainly do it too!
So he slowly walked towards the Red Sand Scorpion...

.........

Many major events happened in the ninja world this year——

Konoha's top brass was reshuffled, the Root was destroyed, Danzo died, and two advisors died;
The Kirigakure was in turmoil, the Fourth Mizukage retreated to the second line, and the Elder Master took control of the Kirigakure;

The second-tailed Jinchuriki of the Hidden Cloud Village mysteriously disappeared, and the Hidden Cloud Village mobilized all its forces to search for him but found nothing;
A man who looked like Uchiha Shiratori attacked the Kusagakure Village, but no ninja village would offend a lunatic for the sake of the Kusagakure Village, which existed in name only, so the matter ended up in nothing...

And with the help of a mysterious puppeteer, Loulan repelled several attacks from Sand Village and successfully restored its country.

And all of this seems to have the shadow of someone...

In the following years, the ninja world entered a rare period of peace, and each ninja village developed steadily and accumulated strength.

Until five years later...
