Chapter 183 Accident

A bright moon hangs high in the sky.

Every now and then, it would peek out from the gaps in the clouds, half of its body peeking out shyly and timidly.

A ray of moonlight fell upon the earth, then vanished.

On the very edge of the Konoha camp, a campfire was burning fiercely, dancing gently in the night breeze.

The shadows cast by the campfire shifted and changed.

To prevent Jiraiya, who was also in the camp, from sensing his absorption of natural energy.

Toshiro had no choice but to move his training place as far away from this "Toad Master" as possible.

Although the original story states that the other party should not have any sensory abilities, who can say for sure?

It's best to avoid being discovered by him if possible.

He now enters Sage Mode because, through years of continuous practice, he has developed a certain level of proficiency.

For example, right now, the time can be controlled to around 20 minutes. Compared to two years ago, when I first learned Sage Mode, it's almost a third faster.

I don't know if it's because I've been using magic for a long time, which has revitalized my body and made me more adaptable to magic.

It was because of the increase in his chakra over the past two years that it became easier for him to neutralize Sage Chakra.

He knew that the amount of one's chakra was a very important criterion for cultivating Sage Mode. He suspected that the reason he couldn't sense natural energy for a long time might be related to his chakra level.

It wasn't until he was 10 years old that he barely met the standard. It was only in the special environment of the Island of Oblivion that he cultivated the Sage Mode.

However, he was certain that everything was moving in a positive direction.

I wonder if I'll ever have the chance to be like the First Hokage, able to activate Sage Mode whenever I want.

Looking at the drifting clouds in the sky, having completed his training for the day, Toshiro couldn't help but feel a little sentimental. He thought how wonderful it would be if he could freely activate Sage Mode.

"Hmm! Who's over there?"

Just then, Toshiro seemed to sense something and looked towards the darkness where the campfire couldn't reach. At the same time, his hand reached for the ninja sword tucked behind his back.

At this moment, an unfamiliar presence arrived silently, so close to him, that he couldn't help but be highly tense.

It's wartime now, so it's unlikely that any enemy could slip past the heavy defenses and sneak into the camp unnoticed.

But it's always good to be careful!

"Hey! Hey! Hey!"

"I never imagined that Toshiro-kun's five senses were so sharp; it's truly astonishing!"

Before Toshiro could take any further action, this unexpected guest revealed himself.

And as soon as it revealed itself, it let out a strange laugh that was both enigmatic and chilling. At the same time, it used its unique voice to 'praise' Toshiro.

Even without seeing the face of the person who spoke that voice, Toshiro knew who it was just from the highly recognizable and distinctive voice.

At the same time, a voice screamed in his mind, "It's him, it's that man."

Less than five meters in front of Toshiro, a black shadow, as dark as ink, began to writhe, twist, and stretch violently as Toshiro's gaze fell upon it, eventually transforming into a young man with a unique aura.

Just by standing there, Toshiro could feel a thick, slippery, and icy chakra begin to permeate the surrounding air with the man's presence.

This gave Toshiro the feeling that he was being targeted by a cold-blooded animal!

The owner of this chilling voice is:

The Third Hokage's disciple, one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha, a future member of the Akatsuki organization, the founder of Otogakure, a master killer, a scientist, and a human trafficker!

Representative works include:

On how to make a deal with death.

When others summon Death, they have to offer up their own souls. But when he summoned Death, not only did Death receive a snakeskin, but he also sacrificed the souls of four people, plus a pair of hands.

Death made a deal with him; losing as little as possible was considered a win!

While others believed in the Will of Fire, he was single-mindedly focused on researching technology and life, earning him the nickname "Einstein Snake" from netizens.

While others grow older with age, he grows younger with age!

He might not be the strongest fighter in Naruto, but he's definitely the hardest to kill. He conducts scientific research in the ninja world, exploits plot holes in the face of death, and pursues immortality in the world of Naruto!

It is sometimes male, sometimes female, neither male nor female, and even neither human nor snake.

Possessing the most scientific running posture and the most snake-like escape method, people spit out snakes, snakes spit out people, people spit out people spitting out snakes spitting out people spitting out swords.

Long hair, long tongue, long neck, and even longer life; initially a terrifying boss, later a hilarious goofball.

He was once obsessed with collecting forbidden techniques, abducted and trafficked children, and would occasionally give people hickeys.

In pursuit of immortality, they are willing to descend into darkness!

It's said that Orochimaru has mastered core technology and is going to become Hokage. By the time Boruto comes along, let alone computer-controlled vehicles, he might even be able to reverse colonize Konoha.

Does the Otsutsuki dare to come again?

The newcomer was slender, dressed in a very ordinary Konoha-style vest, with flowing long black hair and a fair complexion.

If it weren't for the purple greasepaint at the corner of his eye, and the lingering chill emanating from his unusual pupils, one would know that he was a different person altogether.

With the earring on his right ear, he could easily pass for a melancholic, handsome middle-aged man.

Just thinking about the other person's perverted nature made Toshiro feel an urge to run away.

Of course, at this point, Orochimaru was far from the psychopath he would become later. Before he became involved in human experimentation, he was merely a slightly twisted "ninja." He's only recently begun these activities, so he should still be considered a Konoha ninja.

This also relieved Toshiro's tense mood considerably.

Even so, he would occasionally fantasize that the other person might suddenly stretch out their neck and plant a hickey on him.

If that's the case, should I cooperate, or...?

Honestly, in Toshiro's opinion, the biggest powerhouse in the entire Naruto series is none other than Orochimaru. As long as you don't care about his abnormal snake-style ninjutsu and don't have the body he craves.

There's nothing wrong with getting to know this cross-dressing master; his advanced technology is just too amazing...

Unfortunately, he was an Uchiha.
