Konoha: The Female Ninja Broke Down After the Diary Was Exposed

After all,

even setting aside the Flying Thunder God Mark on his body,

Naruto Uzumaki's "Kurama Mode" and the "Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu," which could draw out all the power the dead had possessed in life, were more than he could handle.

"Kid, your name's Orochimaru, right?"

"I just heard Monkey say you used to be his student. Why take things this far?"

"Was it just because Monkey didn't choose you as the next Hokage?"

Tobirama Senju walked up to Orochimaru and asked, unable to understand.

He did not particularly want to meddle in the affairs of the next generation,

but

after killing Monkey, Orochimaru might well control them and turn them against Konoha.

If that happened,

Konoha would be in danger.

So

he had to find out what Orochimaru wanted

and see whether he could persuade him to give up the attack on Konoha.

Tobirama Senju was not the only one.

The other ninja also turned curious eyes toward Orochimaru.

After everything Orochimaru had done,

was it really just because he had not been chosen as Hokage?

Feeling their gazes on him,

Orochimaru ran his tongue over his lips.

"That's exactly what I was about to explain."

"I did all this for Konoha!"

What?!

Everyone looked bewildered at Orochimaru's words.

He had killed the Hokage for Konoha?

Did he even hear himself?!

The Truth Behind Hatake Sakumo's Death

Seeing their confusion, Orochimaru spread his arms and licked his lips.

"Everything I've done was for Konoha."

"Because..."

"I couldn't bear to watch Konoha keep rotting away."

Orochimaru's words only confused them more.

What was he talking about?

Only Hiruzen Sarutobi had gone pale.

After today,

even if he died,

his name would likely remain a permanent stain on Konoha.

"Orochimaru, can you explain yourself?"

Tobirama Senju could not quite follow
