Sunshine Sasuke, from the forum to the strongest in the ninja world

"You're awake. Are you still used to sleeping?"

In the hall, Orochimaru sat alone in his old seat waiting, as if he had never left there.

He greeted Neji in a sinister manner.

"Thank you for taking care of me."

Neji nodded briefly and agreed.

“They have passed the information to Sasuke as you said.

"Then, how will we know Sasuke's response next?"

Orochimaru asked straight to the point without mincing words.

"If nothing else, Sasuke is already on his way here."

Neji answered frankly.

"really?"

Orochimaru was very pleasantly surprised.

Previously, Hyuga Neji said that they had also prepared several passwords.

Orochimaru thought that he still needed to continue to use the information channel between himself and Danzo Shimura to negotiate with Sasuke several times.

Unexpectedly, after only one one-way communication, Sasuke was already ready to leave Konoha.

Then, the next thing will be much easier to handle.

"So, the next words."

Orochimaru continued to ask.

"Lord Orochimaru!!"

While the two were talking, Kabuto Yakushi suddenly burst in from the door.

He was seen walking in a hurry, with a nervous look on his face, and holding an ordinary scroll in his hand.

Five minutes ago, under the moonlight, a strange big bird flew into the perimeter of the base.

From the outside, this bird seems somewhat out of tune with everything going on in this world.

Specifically, it is too rough and simple, as if this bird does not belong to the creatures of this world, but is drawn with a water pen.

The bird was circling, and it seemed very familiar with the environment of Otogakure Village.

It circled around the canyon, then flew directly into the cave entrance, flying towards where Yakushi Dou was as if it was familiar with the route.

Seeing the bird, Kabuto Yakushi immediately took out a blank scroll from the shelf next to him and laid it flat on the table.

Then, the big ink-colored bird plunged into the scroll, directly forming text that could be read.

Yakushi Kabuto took a closer look and found that compared to the long speeches in the past, this reply was very simple.

There were only eight large characters on the scroll, which read:

"Kill Hyuga Neji immediately."

Chapter 173 Spring in Jirobo

After breaking into the hall, Kabuto Yakushi was about to report the secret message he had received when he caught a glimpse of Hyuga Neji standing aside.

When the words came to my lips, I couldn't help but swallow them back alive.

Then, he walked hurriedly to Orochimaru's seat, leaned down and whispered in a low voice.

As Kabuto Yakushi continued to speak, Orochimaru's expression changed from joy at the beginning, to confusion, and then to suspicion.

Finally, it gradually became gloomy.

He took the scroll from Pharmacist Kabuto's hand, looked down at it, and did not take his eyes off it for a long time.

In the hall, Hyuga Neji watched the actions of the two and felt a little confused.

"You just said that Sasuke has left Konoha."

After a long while, Orochimaru finally raised his head again, closed the scroll, stared at Neji in the hall and asked.

"Yes."

Neji nodded.

"Then, what use will you have in the rest of the process?"

Orochimaru spoke very slowly, but his murderous intent was clearly evident.

"I said that without my follow-up command, Sasuke will immediately turn around and go back! This deal will also be voided!"

Under the strong intimidation, Hyuga Neji couldn't help but take half a step back.

However, he still managed to hold on and answered in a firm tone.

"What a pity, Sasuke may not think so."

Orochimaru said hoarsely and threw the scroll in his hand forward.

The scattered scrolls were thrown directly in front of Neji.

Hyuga Neji was full of suspicion, and he was already curious about the contents of the scroll.

When I picked it up, I saw eight big characters written on it:

"Kill Hyuga Neji immediately."

My heart suddenly felt like it was being hammered, and I couldn't help but panic.

I quickly figured out in my mind who wrote these eight words and who meant what behind them.

Listening to Orochimaru's tone just now, it seemed that it was Sasuke's request to Orochimaru.

But how is this possible?

"I don't know who came up with this order.

"But the only thing I know is that Sasuke will be waiting at the Valley of the End before dark."

No, this was definitely not what Sasuke meant.

Neji forced himself to suppress the panic in his heart.

He poured out all the information he had prepared that could be produced at this stage:

"If, after dark, there is still no Otonagakure ninja coming with my password to contact us.

"Then, Sasuke will return to Konoha immediately. As we said before, all this will be treated as if it never happened!

"At that time, it will delay the business. My life and death will naturally depend on your decision, Orochimaru-sama!"

Having said this, Neji felt a surge of pride in his chest. He stared into Orochimaru's eyes and replied loudly:

"Since I dare to come, I'm ready to leave my life behind!

"It's just that it would be too ridiculous to want to take my life with just a scroll that came out of nowhere!

"If it really ends like this, it seems that you, Orochimaru, are not the person I thought you were. The so-called subversion of Konoha is just a dream!

"I misjudged you, you deserve this! Just take this life!"

Hyuga Neji stood there proudly, his eyes as bright as a torch and his bones steely.

"Did I tell you what I was going to do?"

Orochimaru asked in a hoarse voice, calmly.

Neji was stunned for a moment, and gradually calmed down.

As for the source of this information, if it wasn't Sasuke, there were only two.

One is directed and acted by Orochimaru himself or Kabuto Yakushi;

The other one came from the information channel that had been used before—Shimura Danzo.

Orochimaru was very confident at first, saying that this was what Sasuke meant.

I'm afraid, the latter is more likely.

After having some speculation in his mind, Hinata Neji sneered and said:

“It seems that Danzo Shimura of Konoha does not regard you as an equal ally.
