Naruto: By lying low and hiding, he eventually became the leader of the Legendary Sannin.

After saying that, he chased after Tsunade.

Watching the two figures gradually walk away, Fusang felt as if she had just woken up from an unreal dream.

She only woke up from her dream when her best friend touched her.

Her best friend looked at her with a gossipy expression and asked curiously:

"Fusang, where did you meet that boy?"

Or did they come from Konoha?

Speaking of which, that boy is actually quite handsome!

Yeah, he's a bit young, and he seems pretty scummy and a bit stupid.

Trying to have your cake and eat it too, don't you even know to be careful?

Upon hearing this, she looked at her best friend in horror and quickly shook her head in denial:

“What are you talking about!

I didn't know that boy at all; it was the first time I'd ever seen him.

After saying that, she tried hard to recall what Kagura had just told her, and belatedly muttered to herself:

"No, he must be sick!"

Kagura, who had been chasing after Tsunade, finally returned to their inn.

Yes, the Land of Whirlpools, having already known that Hiruzen Sarutobi would be visiting, had arranged inns for everyone to rest.

The two of them had arrived at the hotel first to drop off everyone's luggage before going out to sightsee.

Standing in front of Tsunade's room, Kagura explained helplessly:

"Tsunade, listen to me, it's not what you think."

I'm not confessing my feelings; there's another reason.

Tsunade's muffled voice came from the room:

"Then explain why!"

Forehead......

Kagura opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

There was indeed a reason why he stopped the girl earlier.

The name Fusang might be unfamiliar to some, but all viewers will definitely know her son, Nagato.

That's right, it's the one with the Rinnegan who founded the Akatsuki organization.

Later, he even killed Jiraiya and single-handedly destroyed the entire Hidden Leaf Village, led by Nagato.

His mother was none other than Uzumaki Fusō.

In the original storyline, after the Land of Whirlpools was destroyed, the Uzumaki Fusō family wandered to the Land of Rain.

Later, during the Second Shinobi World War, she and her husband were mistakenly killed by Konoha ninjas who came to search for food, leaving behind their orphaned son, Nagato.

Later, due to a series of changes, Nagato gradually became an important enemy on Naruto's path to growth.

Because she was familiar with the plot of this series, Kagura had such a strong reaction when she realized who Fusang was.

Although he still subconsciously believes that saving the world is Naruto and Sasuke's mission.

However, given the opportunity, he wouldn't mind using his familiarity with the plot to change things and reduce the occurrence of tragedies.

For Fusō, if she had sought refuge in Konoha instead of wandering to the Land of Rain, it would have been a different story.

He believed that Nagato's future would be completely different.

But the biggest problem now is that he can't explain it to Tsunade.

Did he say he came from the future and was trying to change that girl's life?

Ha, even he himself doesn't believe that...

After a long silence, Tsunade finally shouted angrily:

"You're speechless now!"

go!

Get out of here!

Hey...

With a helpless sigh, Kagura could only leave silently.

Hearing the footsteps receding outside the door, Tsunade buried her face in the blankets in sorrow, murmuring:

"Kagura, you idiot!"

As night fell, Kagura was surprised to find that Orochimaru was the first to return, not Jiraiya.

When he returned, he had a look of relish on his face, indicating that he had gained quite a bit today.

He didn't come to his senses until he saw Kagura outside the inn.

He glanced at Kagura, who was alone, and seemed to realize something before saying:

"Did you two argue again?"

Kagura nodded helplessly.

Seeing this, Orochimaru said nothing more, but simply sat down next to him with a smile.

After a pause, he continued:

"Yes, Tsunade is actually a very gentle girl."

And you know, she likes you.

So sometimes I'll get a little grumpy with you.

Hearing this, Kagura could only shake her head helplessly.

This time is different; he can't explain it even if he wants to.

In fact, after spending the last few years together, Orochimaru is the one who most shattered Kagura's impression of him.

As the main antagonist who runs through the entire storyline in the original work, Orochimaru is a childhood nightmare for many children.

However, as one of the few villains who was redeemed later in the story, he was also a person full of contradictions.

At least in Kagura's eyes, Orochimaru is just a humble and polite person with a persistent pursuit of ninjutsu.

Without the misleading influence of Danzo and others, he would likely have become a mad scientist.

As for Tsunade's feelings for Kagura, in fact, not only he, but also Jiraiya was well aware of them.

Perhaps that's why Jiraiya rarely expresses his feelings to Tsunade anymore.

But this is for the best, because Kagura knows very well that even without her, there would be no future for Jiraiya and Tsunade.

Looking at Orochimaru in front of her, Kagura changed the subject and said:

"It seems you gained a lot from going with Sarutobi-sensei today?"

Upon hearing about something that interested him, Orochimaru could no longer maintain his composure and spoke with a fanatical expression:

"Yes, the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan are indeed extraordinary."

do you know?

It is fundamentally different from all the sealing techniques we have learned..."

Orochimaru, contrary to his usual behavior, kept talking to Kagura about what he had gained that day.

Kagura didn't interrupt him, but instead acted as a dutiful audience member, silently listening to his story.

After he finally finished, Kagura spoke:

"It seems you really enjoy studying ninjutsu."

Looking at Orochimaru, who seemed to have had more to say, he pondered for a moment before speaking again:

"I heard from Sarutobi-sensei that you only became interested in ninjutsu after your parents passed away, is that right?"

Upon hearing Kagura's question, Orochimaru's expression instantly returned to calm.

He nodded silently.

Seeing this, Kagura hesitated before asking the question that had always been on her mind:

"So you're so passionate about ninjutsu because you want to develop a ninjutsu to revive them?"

Orochimaru thought about this seriously for a moment before slowly shaking his head and replying:

"no.

They just made me realize how fragile human life truly is.

However, humans can gain power by learning ninjutsu.

If immortality were possible, could humanity then learn the truth of this world through ninjutsu?

Looking at Orochimaru's clear eyes, Kagura did not object to his point of view, but instead looked up at the starry sky above.

The night sky in this world is different from the one in his previous life; the unpolluted sky is as clear as a black curtain.

The curtain was sprinkled with glittering stars, and the dazzling Milky Way formed a most beautiful picture.

He took a deep breath before slowly saying:

"Human life is fragile, but it is also the most resilient."

Because everything we live in now is the result of countless human struggles.

Life cannot last forever, but the spirit can.

An indomitable spirit is far more powerful than mere physical strength.

He looked earnestly at Orochimaru and continued:

I once read a quote.
