Naruto: I am invincible in the ninja world with full favorability

"No need, let's meet up in the Rain Country!" Scorpion tore open a sealed scroll, and a flying puppet shaped like a giant bird appeared.

He jumped onto the big bird puppet and operated it to fly towards the east.

In order to avoid meeting Haneda on the road, he planned to go around the Fire Kingdom and then return to the Rain Kingdom.

Orochimaru looked at Scorpion without stopping for a moment and licked his lips, wondering how much Scorpion was worth in Haneda's eyes.

Although Scorpion is his partner, this partner is a monitor sent by Pain.

He also had dealings with his right-hand man, Pharmacist Dou.

Orochimaru had the idea of ​​getting rid of Scorpion a long time ago, but Scorpion's strength should not be underestimated, so he was unable to do it for the time being.

But Haneda is different...

He has the ability and the motivation, and as long as Scorpion's location is determined, Haneda is more than happy to hunt him down.

It's just like going to kill Ōnoki.

Chapter 281 Meeting Orochimaru Again

Late at night, in Tianguo, in a dilapidated temple.

Haneda and Kakashi stepped in, and a figure in a red cloud cloak came into view.

Orochimaru leaned against the door and turned his head to look at the incoming Haneda. When he noticed Kakashi behind him, his eyes became more sinister.

"Haneda-kun, you are the Hokage now, and I am now an S-rank rebel ninja of Konoha. Bringing other people here will cause unnecessary misunderstandings."

"He is not an outsider." Haneda said lightly.

Orochimaru licked his lips, looked at Haneda and Kakashi standing on his left and right, and recalled Jiraiya.

If he stood in front of Jiraiya, would Jiraiya choose to take action?

Orochimaru smiled and looked at Haneda:

"You want to invite me to be the head of Konoha's scientific research department, but I am more interested in the legendary eyes now."

"Is it the Rinnegan of Pain, the leader of Akatsuki?" asked Haneda.

Of course he knew Orochimaru's purpose of staying in Akatsuki.

At first it was the Rinnegan, but later it was replaced with Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan, a more achievable goal.

But now Itachi will not join Akatsuki, and Orochimaru's purpose of staying in Akatsuki must be related to the Rinnegan.

A simple mercenary group cannot attract Orochimaru, and Orochimaru is not willing to carry out a mission for a small amount of money.

"You know him? It seems that he went to Konoha with the angel and met you." Orochimaru made a reasonable guess.

Haneda said: "I have known him for a long time. I know him better than you. He came to me on his own initiative."

"Interesting..." Orochimaru licked his lips. He didn't expect that Haneda-kun actually knew Pain and they seemed to have a good relationship.

Orochimaru asked curiously:

"Since Haneda-kun knows that I am a member of Akatsuki, do you still dare to accept me?"

"On one side is the legendary Sage's Eye, and on the other side is the anger of Konoha itself."

"I am not likable inside or outside..."

Haneda interrupted, "You are a ninja of Konoha. I summon you in the name of Hokage. What's wrong with that?"

Kakashi sensed that Haneda was planning to attack, so he silently picked up a kunai and instantly moved to the other side, blocking Orochimaru's escape route:

"The surroundings are covered with the marks of the Flying Thunder God. You can't escape. Just follow us obediently."

Seeing that Kakashi understood what he meant so well, Haneda chuckled a few times.

He grasped the hilt of Dawn in his right hand, ready to take action at any time.

Haneda said: "You are being forced now, Orochimaru-senpai."

"You don't want to be tied up with thick ropes and taken back to Konoha to be laughed at by Jiraiya-senpai and Tsunade-senpai, do you?"

Looking at Haneda's unreasonable look, Orochimaru's mouth twitched.

He naturally knew that with Haneda's current abilities, he could not escape unless he died once.

Haneda's last words made Jiraiya's mocking laughter appear in his mind.

Orochimaru spread his hands helplessly and said:

"I can't really beat you, but I have some very interesting news that will surely interest you."

"What news?" Haneda asked curiously.

He knew that Orochimaru would not lie about such matters.

Orochimaru decisively sold out his teammates:

"Scorpion of the Red Sand, the enemy who killed your teacher, Konoha White Fang, is my partner. I can help you lure him here."

"If I defected from Akatsuki, he would have been hiding from you and it would have been difficult for you to find him."

"The leader probably isn't willing to hand him over."

"So, do you still want me to be your research department director, Haneda-kun?"

When Haneda heard the name, he recalled many unpleasant memories.

Scorpio nearly killed himself twice and nearly killed his best friend once.

These are enough to support Haneda's revenge, not to mention that he participated in the conspiracy of Madara and Ōnoki and killed his own teacher!

Haneda's aura was revealed unconsciously.

A strong wind suddenly blew up in the surroundings, and the wooden crossbeams of the gate where Orochimaru was located broke directly.

An unconcealable murderous aura enveloped the entire temple, and the surroundings became extremely quiet in the blink of an eye.

"Where is he now?"

A cold voice came, and Orochimaru replied:

"When I heard you were coming, I ran away immediately. Now I'm on my way to the Rain Country."

Haneda frowned and hesitated.

One side can set up a plan to avenge Uncle Sakumo, and the other side is Shisui, Itachi, and the first five-year plan.

In order to hide from himself and guard against Orochimaru, Scorpion may not appear for a long time.

If the setup requires a long wait.

This undoubtedly slowed down the progress of the five-year plan that he had promised.

Haneda pondered for a long time, constantly weighing his personal feelings against the responsibilities on his shoulders.

Finally, he said:

"You come back to Konoha with me first. This time we'll treat it as a deal. You can continue to stay in the Akatsuki organization."

"But there is one thing you need to complete within a year. I will let the scientific research team at the root assist you."

"During this time, I will use Flying Thunder God to help you travel between Konoha and Akatsuki."

"I still can't escape the fate of going back..." Orochimaru showed a half-smile.

He knew that Haneda was preparing to use Flying Thunder God to take him back, so he walked step by step in front of Haneda.

In the blink of an eye, the two arrived at the Death Forest outside Konoha.

Orochimaru was very familiar with this place. The three of them were standing on top of the Root headquarters.

Haneda said: "Your identity makes it inconvenient for you to travel to Konoha. The fewer people who know you, the better. I would like to trouble Senior Orochimaru to stay at the Root Base first."

"There happens to be a laboratory you left there, which is convenient for experiments."

Orochimaru asked, "What do you want me to help you research?"

"Let me tell you in advance. I also have things I want to research."

"If it's too troublesome, don't count on me alone."

Haneda said: "Help me research high-yield food varieties that are resistant to pests and diseases, and transplant primary cells."

"You should be very interested in the data of two Uchiha clan members who possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan transplanting the First Generation's cells."

“That’s one of the rewards.”

"In addition, I will bear all the expenses for researching high-yield grains, as well as your research fund during this period."

When Orochimaru heard Haneda asking him to research something as boring as high-yield grain, he was surprised:

"Haneda-kun is really planning to eliminate hunger within five years? Haha... I thought you were just trying to eliminate the public's hostility toward you."

Haneda said: "I will do my best to fulfill what I promised."

"Also, I am the Hokage of Konoha and the head of the People's Republic of the Will of Fire."

"Tell me, how long will it take you to finish?"

Orochimaru thought about it. He had some research on plants and knew the basic principles of plant breeding such as hybridization and gene mutation.

Orochimaru asked seriously, "Do you need to take care of the entire country, or most of it?"

“Most only need to cultivate two crops, and the country needs at least 10.”

"In the area near the Rain Country, it rains two-thirds of the time. The environment is dark and humid. I need to cultivate suitable fungi."

"In the northern region, only spring and summer are suitable for planting, and crops that are cold-resistant are needed. Areas near the sea need crops that are salt-tolerant..."

Chapter 282 Not only was I late, I also skipped classes

Haneda said: "You just need to tell me what you need and how much time it will take for each."

Orochimaru said, "The former will take at least one or two years, while the latter will only take a few months, but I need your help."

"Mudun?"
