Orochimaru's Visit!

"Tang Ping-kun, once too many people know something, it is no longer a secret!"

Facing Tang Ping's sudden hostility, Orochimaru remained calm.

Yes, it had been nearly a decade. Did he really think ninja were as stubborn-minded as samurai, incapable of finding ways to gather intelligence?

So it was entirely possible for some things to leak.

Take Konoha's Flying Thunder God. If no one used it, no one would know about it.

But after Minato Namikaze used it, the major ninja villages gathered intelligence with all their might and quickly understood how dangerous that technique was. That was why that order existed.

If Minato Namikaze was spotted, they could directly abandon the mission and retreat!

And the Tenshukaku was absolutely a target of concern for every major force in the Shinobi World. Naturally, they would do everything possible to gather intelligence on it.

With the abilities of ninja, the fact that it had taken them so long to learn this information was already a miracle.

Moreover, the information might have been leaked unintentionally, making it impossible to trace.

Genjutsu, prophecy, eavesdropping... there were all kinds of methods that could potentially obtain information.

"Hmph, a bunch of people who only know how to covet what belongs to others!"

Tang Ping naturally understood that as well, so he reined in his killing intent and commented disdainfully.

Yes, compared to creating, ninja were better at stealing and plundering.

"Not everyone possesses your talent, Tang Ping-kun. Those rotten people can only maintain their lofty positions through endless plunder. Otherwise, they would have been surpassed long ago!"

Orochimaru greatly agreed, while also explaining why the Five Great Ninja Villages had to keep plundering.

To maintain their own status!

Kumogakure, for example, had relied on frantically plundering the resources, secret techniques, bloodlines, and more of other
