Seeing Shenyue Xingyun push the door open and enter, she turned her head slightly, and a puzzled look appeared on her face after seeing Shenyue Xingyun: "Why are you back?"
Shinzuki Seiun: "Mikoto-sensei, I..."
Did you leave something behind?
"No."
Mikoto Uchiha returned her gaze to the book and said calmly, "If you haven't forgotten anything, hurry back."
"..."
Mikoto Uchiha turned a page, admonishing him as she read, "Nebula, you're not a child anymore. You need to take your work seriously."
"If you have work to do, then work overtime. Don't worry too much about me."
Shenyue Xingyun didn't know what to say.
He returned full of confidence, expecting the other person to be lying listlessly in the dimly lit bedroom, but he was surprised to find this scene.
Are we supposed to just say, "Mikoto-sensei, you go back and we'll continue" right here?
Seeing him standing there in a daze, Uchiha Mikoto, still turning the pages of her book, said, "Hurry up and go home."
"After I feed Sasuke, I need to rest too."
"Understood, Ms. Mikoto." Shinzuki Seiun made a strategic retreat.
"I'm leaving now, see you tomorrow."
"Ah."
The Divine Moon Nebula has departed.
Mikoto Uchiha released her senses and sensed that the other party had left the Uchiha clan territory and was gradually walking away. She finally let out a long sigh of relief.
With a sigh, as if releasing all her strength, she nestled softly into the sofa, her gaze fixed on the book in her hands.
She couldn't understand what was written in the book at all, because the words were all upside down.
Mikoto Uchiha murmured to herself, her gaze lingering on the upside-down text for a long time.
"Mikoto, Mikoto."
"Look what you've done."
"This is terrible..."
Chapter 349 Orochimaru's Thoughts
That night, Rinko-senpai, who was resting in the duty room of Konoha Hospital, was having a dream.
In her dazed state, she sensed a familiar and intimate presence.
Just when she thought it was a dream, the increasingly strong tremors made her realize that something was wrong.
An earthquake!?
The thought flashed through her mind, and Rinko-senpai was startled. She immediately opened her eyes and was about to get up.
Then, fate strangled them.
"Senior, it's me."
"Earthquake! I'll protect you."
A familiar voice rang in Rinko's ears, and Rinko finally breathed a sigh of relief.
With him around, even if there's an earthquake, it'll be fine.
But then, she couldn't help but feel annoyed.
You idiot, God Moon Nebula!
They haven't mentioned coming to see me for so many days, and then suddenly they come without even saying hello.
What an evil fellow.
I'll do it myself... I'll do it myself... the thought kept coming in fits and starts.
The shockwaves made her lose consciousness. Although the horizontal shockwaves were strong, the vertical shockwaves were the real danger.
The world before her eyes began to collapse, and she placed all her hopes for survival on Shenyue Xingyun.
Because the way out for your life is in the hands of the other party…
...
The words are divided into two parts.
On the other side, Orochimaru's base.
As Orochimaru finished speaking, a long silence fell over the room.
After a long silence, Danzo, who needed something from Danzo, broke the silence first.
"You said you don't want to confront Shenyue Xingyun, what do you mean?"
Orochimaru smiled and said, "It's simple, because it's not worth it."
Why should I provoke him?
Danzo looked at Orochimaru in disbelief: "Are you serious?"
"The infamous Orochimaru, one of the legendary Sannin of Konoha, you're afraid of someone like that?"
"While you were making a name for yourself on the battlefield, he didn't even know if he'd grown a tail yet!"
Despite Danzo's provocation, Orochimaru's expression remained unchanged, his snake-like eyes still holding a faint smile.
"Under the sword's edge, a name is useless."
"He got to where he is today through his own abilities. Without a bloodline limit or the help of a clan, he made a name for himself in the ninja world with his powerful fire-style techniques and swordsmanship. Why would I want to provoke someone like that?"
He might be slightly interested in a ninja with a bloodline limit, but killing someone skilled in swordsmanship would be pointless, and failing to kill them would be even more troublesome.
Danzo angrily said, "The three legendary Sannin actually backed down in front of a child. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if word gets out?"
Orochimaru shook his head.
"Not afraid."
I don't really care what others think.
"You'd better think of another way to deal with the Divine Moon Nebula. I won't help you."
“Even now I try to avoid him as much as possible.”
Danzo stared wide-eyed in disbelief: "You? You're hiding from him?"
“That’s right.” Orochimaru nodded.
He did not lie.
Not long ago, he searched for homeless people and orphans around Konoha as data for his experiments. Due to slow progress, he had to use local materials.
Not long after, Shingetsu Seiun led the Anbu to begin the investigation! Orochimaru had no choice but to personally handle the situation and had to stop his research on Konoha's population control. Now he could only contact forces like the Gold Exchange to collect materials by purchasing death row inmates, which was slow and expensive.
It is worth mentioning that this is one of the few field missions that Shenyue Xingyun has carried out in the Dark Division.
Therefore, Orochimaru is now unwilling to help Danzo deal with Shingetsu Seiun.
He's busy with experiments and has to avoid his opponent. If he agrees to Danzo's attack and fails to kill him in one blow, it will only bring more trouble later.
Danzo was furious to see Orochimaru's "so what if it is?" attitude.
He hadn't expected Orochimaru to be so uncooperative.
He stood up angrily, turned and left, but stopped at the door and said coldly, "It seems like Hiruzen has been investigating you lately."
"Be careful, don't get caught."
Orochimaru: "Understood, thanks for reminding me."
Danzo slammed the door shut. Orochimaru watched the direction Danzo had left in, then picked up the warm tea in front of him and took a sip.
The snake's eyes narrowed, and it murmured, "It's time to leave."
"The village is increasingly influencing my research."
...
"Lord Orochimaru, it's been a long time." The next day at noon, when Orochimaru encountered Shingetsu Seiun on the streets of Konoha, he was somewhat surprised.
He thought the other party had tracked down his scientific research and was deliberately trying to ambush him.
"Nebula Jonin," Orochimaru said, his expression unchanged. "You don't need to call me 'Lord' anymore."
“You are now the captain of the Dark Army, and you are no longer inferior to me.”
“I’m used to it,” Shenyue Xingyun said. “Are you planning to go home?”
Orochimaru was actually in a hurry to get back to conduct experiments.
He now spends almost all his time at the experimental base, only occasionally venturing out, but of course he couldn't say that in front of Shenyue Xingyun, so he nodded: "Yes."
Shenyue Xingyun: "Would it be convenient for you to take me for a ride?"
Orochimaru: "...Of course."
Shenyue Xingyun smiled and said, "That's good."
Orochimaru's eye twitched slightly, then he led Shingetsu Seiun home.
The two arrived shortly afterward.
Shingetsu Seiun surveyed Orochimaru's residence. Compared to Orochimaru's status as one of the Sannin, Orochimaru's house was not large, nor was it particularly well-furnished. The house was poorly lit, and there was even a thin layer of dust on the floor.
The room had many bookshelves filled with all kinds of books and documents.
"Lord Orochimaru, how long has it been since you last came back?"
"It looks like no one has lived here for a long time."
Orochimaru remained silent.
I was going to come up with an excuse, but after thinking about it, I realized that neither of them were stupid, so there was no need to make up an excuse.
