Orochimaru

In Uchiha Ancestral Grounds, Fugaku Uchiha and Uchiha Clan Elder are still discussing Uchiha Clan's next plan.

They are at the moment when they are proud.

After Namikaze Minato took over, Uchiha Clan immediately received huge returns.

This is the time when they are most active in village affairs.

"Also, You should pay more attention to Itachi."

Someone suggested. "With You's excellence, after Fourth Hokage, he will have great opportunities in the future."

This is preparation for investing in the next Hokage.

After seeing the huge returns from investing in Naruto, they can't wait to start the next round of investment.

According to tradition, the next Hokage is often chosen from the disciples of the previous Hokage.

For example, Hiruzen Sarutobi is the disciple of Second Hokage Tobirama Senju.

Although Namikaze Minato is not a disciple of Hiruzen Sarutobi, he is a disciple of Jiraiya, which is average to a certain extent.

According to tradition, the next Hokage will most likely be chosen from the disciples of Namikaze Minato.

So far, Namikaze Minato has only two disciples in total.

Namikawa Yū and Kakashi.

Between the two, Uchiha Clan is undoubtedly more optimistic about Namikawa Yū.

This is not only because of Namikawa Yū's ability, but also the reason why Itachi Uchiha became Namikawa Yū's disciple.

Fugaku's child is a student of Namikawa Yū. As long as Namikawa Yū can become Hokage, with this relationship in the future, Itachi Uchiha will also have a high chance of becoming Hokage.

Moreover, from Namikaze Minato's own point of view, he also values Namikawa Yū,

For the Uchiha Clan, this level of relationship must be maintained no matter what.

This is the key to their Uchiha Clan's ability to produce a Hokage in the future. No problem can arise no matter what.

"I understand."

Facing the gazes of others around him, Fugaku Uchiha nodded. "I will tell Itachi to be more respectful."

"With Itachi's ability, I believe he will definitely stand out."

Fugaku Uchiha is very confident about his children's talents and abilities.

There is no doubt that Itachi Uchiha is an outstanding genius.

Not only does he have outstanding abilities, but he is also very talented as a ninja, even his father is not as good as him.

As long as he can go on smoothly, Fugaku Uchiha believes that his eldest son will one day be close to Hokage Position.

Of course, before that, the elders like them must also work harder.

"First clean out the third generation and Shimura Danzō people from Anbu."

Fugaku said calmly, "Their people are really in the way."

"It's really disgusting that there are still so many subordinates occupying important positions even though they have already abdicated."

Now is the time when the old and the new are changing.

Every department and organization within Konoha, including Anbu, is almost full of people from Hiruzen Sarutobi and Shimura Danzō.

Their Uchiha's most important task now is to compete with those old people to seize these positions.

This is not just for Namikaze Minato, but also for themselves.

After all, the more positions they occupy, the greater their voice.

outside world.

Itachi Uchiha walked through the clan land.

"Everyone's mood has improved."

Walking through the Uchiha Clan's clan, this thought flashed through his mind.

From his perspective, it was obvious that the smiles on the faces of the surrounding tribesmen had changed.

Uchiha Ninja, who had always been gloomy, has been smiling more recently and looks much happier.

Everything shows that Uchiha Clan's situation is getting better.

However, there are also many disharmonious places in it.

"Get the things out of my way!"

Walking to a street, the sound passing by made Itachi Uchiha frown.

There is a Uchiha ninja from Military Police Force, who is currently warning the roadside merchants to make rectifications within a time limit.

This is not a big problem, but Uchiha's attitude is so cold and domineering that Itachi Uchiha can't help but frown when he sees it.

"Although the situation has improved, many tribesmen are still the same."

Itachi Uchiha stood there, thinking in his mind, "If this continues, I'm afraid Uchiha Clan's situation will become worse again."

After studying with Namikawa Yū, he became much more cheerful, and his mind became more open and he could think of more things.

At this moment, looking at the attitude of the Uchiha people around him, he immediately realized the danger.

There is a reason why Uchiha Clan is isolated by Konoha.

After all, if Shimura Danzō is hostile to them, that is Shimura Danzō's problem, but if others are also hostile to the isolated Uchiha, that can only explain Uchiha's problem.

In many things, Uchiha Clan is too arrogant, so much so that he has offended many people invisibly.

Of course, they don't think so themselves.

In many cases, it cannot even be said that Konoha has isolated Uchiha. To put it another way, Uchiha has isolated Konoha.

Itachi Uchiha looked at the performances of the tribesmen around him, and at this moment, he felt a sense of crisis in his heart.

However, he didn't say much, he just turned around silently and returned to the clan.

He knew that he was too young now. Even if he explained his worries to others, no one would care.

He could only sigh secretly in his heart and hope to change it in the future.

Namikawa Yū Over there, we also met a special guest at this moment.

In Konoha Orphanage, he originally taught Kabuto Yakushi lessons.

Yakushi Nonō was sent out to perform a mission again, leaving Kabuto Yakushi alone in Orphanage.

Before leaving, Nonō specially entrusted Namikawa Yū to take care of Kabuto Yakushi.

So Namikawa Yū made a special trip to teach me.

Kabuto Yakushi's talent is very good above that of ninja.

Although his performance in Taijutsu and ninjutsu is only average, he is very talented in Medical Ninjutsu.

Just after the teaching, Namikawa Yū felt this.

"Your chakra control is very good. As long as you master enough techniques, you can exert considerable power."

Namikawa Yū smiled and said, "In the future, you may also become an excellent ninja."

"Can I become a powerful ninja by just learning Medical Ninjutsu?"

Kabuto Yakushi asked out of curiosity.

"Of course."

Namikawa Yū nodded. "Medical Ninjutsu is also very powerful. It can not only save people, but also be used in battle."

"Like this."

He stretched out his hand and stretched one hand forward, cutting it like a knife.

The force used was obviously very slight, but in the blink of an eye, the wooden table in front of him was scratched, and a long, thin and neat crack appeared directly.

"This is...

Kabuto Yakushi looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes couldn't help but shine. "Chakra Scalpel?"

Using chakra, you can create extremely sharp Chakra Blade.

This method has many applications in surgery.

But this is the first time Kabuto Yakushi has been used directly in attacks like this.

"It's actually very simple to do this, you just need to have enough chakra control."

Namikawa Yū spoke softly and said this now, "For Kabuto, it is not too difficult to think about."

"Yes, I understand."

Kabuto Yakushi nodded, very interested in this.

I have to say that he is indeed very talented in Medical Ninjutsu.

But in the final analysis, he wanted to learn Medical Ninjutsu in order to better help Nonō and Namikawa Yū.

Although he is still very young, with Kabuto Yakushi's maturity, he can clearly feel that something is wrong with Nonō.

She seemed to be under a lot of pressure. Although she usually had a smile on her face, she was always worried in her heart.

"Don't think too much."

While I was thinking about it, the voice of Namikawa Yū came from beside me.

He looked at Kabuto Yakushi in front of him and smiled, "You are still young, and the most important thing in front of you now is to study hard.

"As for other matters, it is up to the dean and I to resolve them."

"Yes."

Listening to Namikawa Yū's clear and gentle words, Kabuto Yakushi was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face.

"Thank you."

He knew what Namikawa Yū meant and accepted the other party's kindness, so with a smile on his face at the moment, he silently buried the worry in his heart.

Namikawa Yū was originally planning to stay here for a while.

But the breath coming from outside made his heart move.

So he raised his head, turned and looked aside.

The next moment, his figure disappeared on the spot and left directly through Flying Thunder God.

"Are you in trouble again?"

Kabuto Yakushi looked at the scene in front of him, and this thought silently flashed through his mind at this moment.

He didn't say much, he just sat silently and completed his homework.

Outside Orphanage, the figure of Namikawa Yū appeared.

"I didn't expect that Lord Orochimaru would also like to come to a place like this."

Standing in front of Orphanage's side door, he looked at Orochimaru in front of him and spoke softly.

In front, a man is standing there.

His face looked a little cold. He was obviously a living person, but he gave people an inexplicable coldness like a snake. The overall feeling was very strange.

However, he does look very young. He is obviously middle-aged, but on the surface he looks no different from an ordinary young man.

"Sure enough, the rumors are correct."

Orochimaru looked at Namikawa Yū in front of him, with a look of surprise on his face. "You have indeed mastered Flying Thunder God."

"Minato Is this why I accepted you as a student?"

Namikawa Yū did not answer this question, but instead asked, "What are Lord Orochimaru doing here?"

"Do you simply want to come and see the children in Orphanage?"

"I just want to know what a person like you is like."

Orochimaru looked at Namikawa Yū in front of him and said with interest, "It will also make me more aware of where I failed this time."

The failure he was talking about was naturally referring to the Hokage campaign.

This time in the Hokage campaign, he could be said to have failed in all aspects.

Not only Hiruzen Sarutobi's attitude, but also Konoha Jonin's voting results show his failure without exception.

The gap was so big that he couldn't help but be surprised.

So, he subconsciously did some research and discovered Namikawa Yū behind Namikaze Minato.

"Lord Orochimaru will fail simply because it doesn't care."

Namikawa Yū said, "From the beginning to the end, I don't think Lord Orochimaru cares about the position of Hokage."

"Really?"

Orochimaru said calmly, "How do you know."

"Just understand."

Namikawa Yū said, "I also know a little bit about your past research."

"To be honest, I don't think a person who is obsessed with research would have any interest in running a village."

"Although that position is Hokage."

"You'd be wrong about that."

Orochimaru said, "Before your teacher appeared, I originally wanted to get into that position."

Although the obsession in his heart is not deep, Orochimaru has indeed wanted to reach that position.

Unfortunately, after meeting Namikaze Minato, this idea in his mind was doomed to fail.

Because in the election, compared to Namikaze Minato, he has too many disadvantages.

Regardless of his background of having conducted forbidden experiments many times or his popularity with Konoha Ninja, he has no advantage.

Even in terms of his own strength, he is not stronger than Namikaze Minato.

Although there has never been a formal duel between the two, if Orochimaru really dares to duel with Namikaze Minato, I am afraid that he will only be defeated miserably in the end.

"Really?"

Namikawa Yū looked calm. "That's a pity."

"I originally thought Lord Orochimaru would be a pure researcher."

"No one in this world can always be pure."

Orochimaru said calmly, "You just said that, so you probably know something about my research."

"What do you think?"

"Lord Orochimaru is a genius."

Namikawa Yū opened his mouth and directly mentioned Orochimaru's many past experiments.

He just said a few words casually, and Orochimaru's face immediately changed slightly, and his whole attitude seemed to have changed.

As soon as an expert takes action, he will know whether it is there or not.

Namikawa Yū had just spoken, and Orochimaru was very sure that the person in front of him was definitely his companion.

The other party is very knowledgeable about various experiments, and even some of the problems encountered during the experiments are very clear, and it seems that there is even a set of mature solutions.

This quickly attracted the attention of Orochimaru.

So, he tried to test it out, wanting to know whether things were as he thought.

Sure enough, Namikawa Yū easily gave an explanation to the question he asked.

And judging from this appearance, he seems to be very skilled and does not feel unfamiliar at all.

Regarding this scene, Orochimaru was quickly shocked.

"It turns out that You is also a fellow traveler."

He looked at Namikawa Yū in front of him with great interest, and seemed to feel an unexpected surprise at this moment.

"It's okay."

Namikawa Yū smiled, "People always have some hobbies, no matter what they are, it's not strange."

"It just so happens that Lord Orochimaru and I have similar hobbies, so this should be normal."

"Yeah...

Listening to Namikawa Yū's words, Orochimaru was silent for a moment, and then nodded.

"If nothing happens, I will leave first.

Standing there, Namikawa Yū smiled and was about to turn around and leave.

Behind him, a breeze suddenly blew, and then a hand quickly reached forward.
