Ninja World: I'm really a support-type ninja

"So, does this count as an injury?"

Just as Akira Hatake found an excuse, Orochimaru broke his left arm with one hand without changing his expression. His ruthless and decisive manner stunned Akira Hatake.

A person who is ruthless to themselves is a truly ruthless person, without a doubt.

"you win……"

0.75 seconds later, a ball of light filled with rich life energy surged into Orochimaru's body along the chakra chain.

"hiss……"

Orochimaru's snake-like eyes suddenly contracted, and then he shuddered, feeling as if every pore on his body had opened up.

"What a wonderful experience! The charm and allure of life are so simple and unadorned." Orochimaru squinted his eyes, thoroughly enjoying himself. "You really are a treasure, Akira!"

"No wonder that hot-tempered and arrogant woman, Tsunade, was willing to teach you everything about herself, and even spent all her wealth to forge a ninja sword with 100% chakra conductivity for Kakashi."

"If it were me, I would not only teach you all the ninjutsu I know, but I could even do things that no one else can do."

What do you think, Ming?

Orochimaru's words fully expressed his true thoughts, which surprised Akira Hatake somewhat.

But upon further reflection, this is Orochimaru's true nature.

For Orochimaru, anything related to life is the most irresistible thing in the world.

Even what he possesses is completely incomparable to life or the essence of life; he would never hesitate to lose it!

“I don’t trust you.” Akira Hatake stared into Orochimaru’s snake-like eyes, now laying his cards on the table. “Anyone who works with Danzo Shimura always seems dangerous.”

"Hehe, you really know a lot. Sometimes when I look through information about you, I can hardly believe you're only nine years old!"

Orochimaru didn't offer any further explanation, but instead stood up and turned to leave.

"Take this. When you feel you can trust me, or when you want to get something from me, come find me." As he turned around, Orochimaru tossed something to Akira Hatake.

"I will still unconditionally fulfill all your requests, but of course, you also need to let me experience this feeling of being surrounded by life energy a few more times."

"My promise is valid forever. I await your arrival, Ming."

After saying that, Orochimaru left Akira Hatake's tent.

Akira Hatake caught a piece of paper that was slowly falling from mid-air.

This is a very ordinary piece of paper, but the content drawn on it is a secret research base known only to Orochimaru.

Immediately, Akira Hatake was caught in a state of inner turmoil.

Chapter 133 Nouveau Riche Akira Hatake! (3rd update, 10,000 words completed, please subscribe and vote!)

the next day,

The entire ninja force of Sunagakure has withdrawn from the Land of Fire.

Even the land of the River Kingdom that they originally occupied was reserved as a buffer zone for the needs of the war between the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire.

After calming down, Chiyo finally agreed to Rasa's decision.

Because the Land of Wind lost their weapon of war, Shukaku, they were subjected to harsh criticism from the Daimyo of the Land of Wind.

The criticism isn't the main issue; the main issue is that the Daimyo of the Land of Wind has lost faith in the war. After all, they've lost their own tailed beast, while the Land of Fire still possesses the Nine-Tails, the strongest of the nine tailed beasts.

Therefore, the Daimyo of the Land of Wind reduced the war supplies provided to Sunagakure, intending to show that he no longer supported Sunagakure's decision to attack the Land of Fire.

The daimyo of the Land of Wind could be described as short-sighted, but he could also be seen as pragmatic.

Aiming too high is clearly an unrealistic fantasy, while actually getting the meat in your mouth is the most beneficial thing to do.

Although the Land of Rivers is a small country, its territory is not small, and its land is quite fertile. Although it cannot compare with the Land of Fire, it can still solve the immediate problem.

Furthermore, because the Land of Fire also had to deal with the siege of the three great powers at the same time, it gave the Land of Wind the opportunity to make fun of the Land of Rivers and the Land of Birds.

Regardless of whether the Land of Fire won or lost in this Shinobi World War, the real reason for the war was that the four great nations were pursuing their own interests.

As long as they hold onto their existing interests, they can leave the task of besieging the Land of Fire to the other three great powers, while the Land of Wind makes its escape!

In short, maintain control of existing interests, then sit back and watch the tigers fight, only getting involved when the time is right.

Since the Wind Kingdom hasn't signed any alliance treaties with the other three major powers, it's understandable that they're temporarily withdrawing from the battlefield.

The newly appointed Fourth Kazekage Rasa was also filled with unspeakable sorrow.

In last night's battle, Bunpuku was killed in action, and I was seriously injured. Moreover, the supply camp was mostly destroyed by a suicidal attack by a squad of Konoha ninjas.

Furthermore, the Sand Village ninja forces suffered severe damage, and in terms of total strength, they were slightly behind Orochimaru's forces.

Orochimaru's forces, who were initially outnumbered, were able to fight the main force of Sunagakure to a standstill.

Now that the Sand Village's ninjutsu is at a disadvantage, how can they possibly defeat Orochimaru's forces?

Moreover, after waiting all night, Rasa finally figured out all the information that Akira Hatake had exposed.

At the same time, an even more exaggerated piece of information was added to Akira Hatake's personal information:

Akira Hatake, son of Konoha's White Fang, used the Flying Thunder God Technique to kill 700 Sunagakure ninjas in three breaths!

Now, Akira Hatake became infamous throughout the ninja world.

"The story of Sakumo Hatake, Akira Hatake, and their father and son, and the village of Sunagakure."

"Akira Hatake #Konoha's new generation of strongest ninja".

"Slayed 700 people in one fell swoop #Konoha Chunin Akira Hatake".

"Top 10 strongest ninjas of the new generation: Akira Hatake is number one."

Whether the news was exaggerated or factual, the name "Hatake Akira" became known to everyone in the ninja world.

The Konoha leadership also intended to amplify Akira Hatake's deterrent power in the war, and the propaganda efforts were unprecedentedly strong, using extremely detailed descriptions to continuously exaggerate how invincible Hatake's Flying Thunder God Technique was.

As a result, Akira Hatake's master, Minato Namikaze, also benefited from this publicity boom, with the phrase "Konoha's Silver Flash" spreading like wildfire.

Minato Namikaze has already reaped the benefits, so there's no reason to forget Kakashi. Therefore, Kakashi's battle record has been dug up by some people.

When he's not actively fighting, Kakashi is practically invisible. After all, while some of the enemy ninjas Kakashi has killed so far are Jonin, they aren't particularly famous.

After all, the fastest way to become famous is to step on others to get ahead, and that has never changed.

When Kakashi's record in battle against the ninjas of the Land of Lightning was revealed, it immediately shocked everyone.

Since the start of the war between the two countries, the number of chunin and genin who have died at Kakashi's hands has long exceeded 500, and this number is still rising.

If the Hidden Cloud Village's ninja forces encounter Kakashi now, they will definitely send a squadron of Jonin to restrain him, otherwise the Chunin and Genin in the squadron really wouldn't be enough for Kakashi to take on alone.

Kakashi truly deserves the title of "King of Grass-Cutting".

Even so, Kakashi could handle being surrounded by 15 or more Jonin with ease. In fact, if he didn't kill three or four of the Cloud Village Jonin on the spot, it would be considered an off day for Kakashi.

Immediately, discussions about Kakashi spread throughout the entire ninja world.

"The Neglected Executioner #Kakashi".

"Kakashi, the king who dominates Chunin and Genin."

"Kakashi #The genius whose brilliance was overshadowed by his brother."

"Konoha Twins #Hatake Akira, Hatake Kakashi".

Because of these discussions, Akira Hatake and Kakashi earned a resounding nickname in the ninja world: the Konoha Twins!

Although their fighting styles are completely different, the commonalities between them are surprisingly consistent!

Mowing lawns was one of the two brothers' strengths.

Although this is somewhat derogatory, mowing grass is one of the most outstanding skills in war, and it is a recognition of the two brothers.

As a result, Akira Hatake and Kakashi were officially added to the kill list of the four major hidden villages: Sunagakure, Iwagakure, Kumogakure, and Kirigakure!

After the Land of Wind temporarily retreated, a new plan targeting the Land of Fire is being secretly prepared.

……

"We have to part ways so soon..."

Orochimaru looked reluctant to part. "Akira, aren't you going to give me a parting gift?"

Inside Orochimaru's command tent, Akira Hatake looked helpless. He raised his hand and shot out a purplish-red chakra chain, which tied around Orochimaru's waist. A ball of pure life energy was then injected into Orochimaru's body.

"Alright, Orochimaru, I have to go."

Over the past few days, Akira Hatake and Orochimaru have become much more familiar with each other, and the honorific title "Akira Hatake" has long been abandoned.

Orochimaru didn't say much about this; what he really cared about was the life energy that Akira Hatake's third skill had transferred into his body.

Each time Orochimaru received a transfer of life energy, he felt he was one step closer to the true meaning of life, and even the allure of the Reanimation Jutsu, which he was secretly developing, diminished considerably.

If one could receive Akira Hatake's life energy every day, the distance to immortality would be much closer than that of the Reincarnation Technique.

After all, your own body is always more comfortable and suited to you than someone else's.

"Ming, never forget our promise."

"I'll think about it some more."

In the past few days, although Akira Hatake frequently granted Orochimaru's requests to transfer life energy to him, he remained cautious about taking his relationship with Orochimaru further.

The main problem is that Orochimaru is just too dangerous; you can never predict what his next move will be.

Orochimaru smiled indifferently at Akira Hatake's answer, "You'll change your mind..."

Orochimaru firmly believed that the relationship between people was simple: each person got what they needed, and he had a bargaining chip that Akira Hatake would desperately need in the future.

The contract scroll from Ryuchi Cave is in Orochimaru's possession.

Although Orochimaru cannot be certain whether Akira Hatake needs it, given that Akira Hatake has already made contracts with both Mount Myōboku and Shikkotsu Forest, two great sacred sites, he is unlikely to give up on making a contract with Ryūchi Cave as well.

As for why he made this guess, it naturally stemmed from Orochimaru's intuition.

It must be said that Orochimaru's intuition was very accurate. Akira Hatake did indeed have the idea of ​​simultaneously contracting summoning beasts from the three great holy lands, taking advantage of their strengths and compensating for their weaknesses to complete the Sage Techniques inherited from the three holy lands.

But people often don't cherish things that are too easily obtained, and Orochimaru is a prime example of this.

Therefore, Akira Hatake had to keep a low profile and give Orochimaru a good talking-to, to temper Orochimaru's temper.

I also want to test Orochimaru to see if he has any dangerous ideas about me.
