Night falls.
Shihui Aburame and others have left Otogakure and arrived at a forest somewhere in the hinterland of Land of Fire.
Sasuke Uchiha set up four tents.
One each for Shihui Aburame, Tsunade and Orochimaru.
Matt Kai, Kakashi Hatake and Sasuke Uchiha share one.
After dinner, Shihui Aburame called Orochimaru away.
The two people came to the river not far from the camp.
"Orochimaru, can you summon the three top executives of Ryūchi Cave?"
Shihui Aburame asked directly.
He wanted to use the Snake Control Gu.
White Snake Sage cannot be controlled. The other snakes are of average strength and cannot transform yet.
The only suitable targets are the three top executives, namely the three snake queens, Tagorihime, Ichikishimahime and Tagitsuhime.
"It's difficult."
Orochimaru shook his head and said, "The three top executives have high status and will not accept the call of the contractor."
"Is there any way?"
Shihui Aburame It is true that we have never seen the three great snake ladies being summoned in the original work.
"Go to Ryūchi Cave to meet them."
Orochimaru thought for a while and said.
"Will you be discovered by White Snake Sage?"
Shihui Aburame frowned slightly and asked.
"No."
Orochimaru explained, "White Snake Sage lives in the temple deep in Ryūchi Cave. It is difficult for even contractors to see it."
Shihui Aburame fell into thinking.
Let Orochimaru take the snake-controlling Gu alone to Ryūchi Cave?
But can he defeat the three great snake ladies?
If you fail, you will lose more than you gain.
The best way is for him to follow.
But to get to Ryūchi Cave, either find the entrance or go through Reverse Summoning Technique.
Finding the entrance takes time.
Reverse Summoning Technique means that Shihui Aburame will become the contractor of Ryūchi Cave.
Of course he doesn't want to.
Then the goal can be achieved through a curve.
"Orochimaru, you sign as the contractor of Shikkotsu Forest, and then go to Ryūchi Cave."
Shihui Aburame said, "When we arrive, you summon Katsuyu, and then let it summon me."
To put it bluntly, it doesn't matter even if he is discovered.
If you can't beat White Snake Sage, can you still not run?
And Ryūchi Cave dares to come out and attack Konoha?
When the time comes, he brings Shikkotsu Forest, Jiraiya brings Mount Myōboku, can Konoha still be destroyed?
"Yes."
Orochimaru agreed without hesitation.
Shihui Aburame bit his thumb and slapped it on the ground.
Bang.
A fist-sized Katsuyu appeared.
"Master Katsuyu, I have something to trouble you with."
Shihui Aburame repeated his thoughts.
"Shiki-sama."
Katsuyu said hesitantly, "If you are noticed by White Snake, your life may be in danger."
"It's not a big problem."
Shihui Aburame said with a smile, "I just need to hold on under it until you use Reverse Summoning Technique."
"That's good."
Katsuyu said in a gentle tone, "When push comes to shove, White Snake will be left to me to deal with."
Although the three immortals have different abilities, their strength is similar, and no one can do anything to the other.
"Thank you Mr. Katsuyu."
Shihui Aburame said seriously.
Compared with Great Toad Sage and White Snake Sage, Katsuyu Immortal is very pure and has a sense of conscientiousness.
This is an excellent psychic beast.
Katsuyu took out Summoning Scroll.
After Orochimaru signed his name, he officially became the contractor of Shikkotsu Forest.
Soon, his body disappeared.
He was summoned to Ryūchi Cave.
Ten seconds later, Katsuyu also turned into a puff of smoke.
Shihui Aburame After waiting for a moment, I felt the call from somewhere.
After he agreed, the scenery in front of him suddenly changed.
From the dense forest to the cold cave.
"Go meet Ichikishimahime."
Shihui Aburame has identified the target.
The three great snake ladies have the same abilities, such as floating and invisibility, but also have different abilities.
Ichikishimahime is absorbed.
Tagorihime is an illusion.
Tagitsuhime is bound.
"Follow me."
Orochimaru looked around and looked for a passage.
A few minutes later, the vision suddenly opened up, and a large underground castle appeared.
Orochimaru walked up and knocked on the door.
The door was opened and Ichikishimahime came out.
This is a lolita who looks like a pretty girl, but is actually a murderous thousand-year-old monster.
She wears a white gown and a golden crown.
She has long dark blue hair, golden vertical pupils, and red eye shadow.
She has snow-white skin and blue earrings on her ears.
"Master Ichikishimahime, I would like to ask you a favor."
Orochimaru pointed at Shihui Aburame and said, "This is the sacrifice I brought to you."
If a ninja who enters Ryūchi Cave training fails, he will be eaten by the three snake queens.
Shihui Aburame looked dull and pretended to be under an illusion.
In order to avoid attracting White Snake Sage's attention, he planned to outsmart him.
"One sacrifice is not enough."
Ichikishimahime opened its mouth, revealing sharp teeth and a slender tongue far beyond that of a human being.
There is also a fork at the end of the tongue.
"He is the contractor of Shikkotsu Forest."
Orochimaru smiled slightly and said, "One can hold up to ten."
"Oh?"
Ichikishimahime was immediately interested.
Her body rose up without any wind and floated to the top of Shihui Aburame's head before stopping.
"I'll taste it first."
The corners of Ichikishimahime's mouth spread to both sides, revealing sharp teeth up and down.
She bit Shihui Aburame.
At this moment, a black light suddenly flew into her mouth.
"What did you feed me?"
Ichikishimahime swallowed it subconsciously.
She discovered the problem, and her originally cute little face turned ferocious.
But soon, her body trembled.
She looked at Shihui Aburame, surrender rising in her heart.
"Ichikishimahime Meet the master."
Ichikishimahime's expression returned, she was very respectful, she knelt on her knees, her forehead pressed against the ground, and said.
"I will summon you tomorrow, and you try not to let Ryūchi Cave discover anything unusual."
Shihui Aburame looked at Ichikishimahime crawling on the ground, secretly thinking that it was really the habit of a snake.
"Yes, Master."
Ichikishimahime is still in awe.
"Let's go back."
Shihui Aburame looked at Katsuyu.
Orochimaru didn't react much because of the slave Gu.
But Katsuyu seemed very shocked.
This is one of the three top executives of Ryūchi Cave.
Ichikishimahime who has the ability to shapeshift.
Strictly speaking, she is no longer a psychic beast, but more like a monster or a future immortal.
But was he so easily subdued by Shihui Aburame?
It's simply terrifying.
[Achieve the achievement of 'Hero of the Grass' and obtain the reward Earth Corpse Gu.]
[Dikui Corpse Gu: Level 5 Gu insect, with the transformation path, after use, it transforms into the Dikui Corpse, one of the six flying zombies.]
What the hell?
Shihui Aburame's expression suddenly froze.
Reckless hero?
I haven't done anything.
System, you are simply slandering!
Although the reward is not bad, it still can't suppress Shihui Aburame's desire to complain.
Smoke rises.
Shihui Aburame and Orochimaru returned to the river.
"I'm sorry to trouble you today, Master Katsuyu."
After expressing gratitude to Katsuyu, Shihui Aburame dismissed Summoning Technique.
Orochimaru returned to his tent.
Shihui Aburame originally wanted to go back to the tent prepared for him, but he stopped in front of Tsunade's tent.
"Come in."
When he hesitated, Tsunade's voice rang.
Shihui Aburame immediately walked into the tent.
"What are you doing outside?"
Tsunade was lying in the sleeping bag, with only his head exposed.
"I was wondering if the teacher would like a midnight snack."
"Lying."
Tsunade exposed him without mercy.
"Okay."
Shihui Aburame smiled and said, "I just want to stay with the teacher."
"..."
Tsunade's heart trembled, and he looked away. After a long time, he said, "It's too late, go to bed."
"Okay!"
Shihui Aburame suddenly became excited.
He took out his sleeping bag and lay down next to Tsunade.
The tent became quiet.
Tsunade was lost in thought listening to Shihui Aburame's gentle breathing.
This kid really doesn't miss any opportunity.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she turned around and faced Shihui Aburame.
Natsuhi's night has a hazy light.
She could clearly see Shihui Aburame's face.
It's quite beautiful when it's quiet.
Tsunade The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and then he closed his eyes.
A night of silence.
Early morning.
The sun shines down from among the branches.
The tent gradually became brighter.
Tsunade opened her eyes and saw Shihui Aburame looking at her.
She was startled slightly, and gradually regained consciousness.
"Watch what I do?"
Tsuna Teuchi opened the sleeping bag, sat up, and asked.
"Because it's beautiful."
Shihui Aburame answered.
"Glib tongue."
Tsunade glared at him and said, "Get out quickly to avoid being discovered."
"Teacher, don't you think this is like stealing..."
Before Shihui Aburame could say the words of love, Tsunade raised his jade foot and kicked him.
He grabbed her feet with both hands and scratched her soles twice as revenge.
"Let's go!"
Tsunade's body trembled and he quickly retracted his feet.
"Yes."
Shihui Aburame left with a smile.
After breakfast, the group continued on the road.
At noon, we finally arrived at Konoha.
Shihui Aburame took Orochimaru to the Hokage building.
Tsunade They disbanded on the spot and did whatever they had to do.
Arriving at the Hokage building, the appearance of Orochimaru caused a sensation.
Everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Shihui Aburame.
Orochimaru followed Lord Hokage so honestly, it is self-evident what happened.
At this moment, Shihui Aburame's reputation has reached its peak.
"Orochimaru?!"
When Shizune saw Shihui Aburame and Orochimaru walking into Hokage's office, she was so frightened that her face turned pale.
But soon, she discovered a problem.
Just now she thought it was Orochimaru who held Shihui Aburame hostage, but the situation was obviously the other way around.
"Orochimaru was bewitched by me."
Shihui Aburame sat on Hokage's chair and said casually, "He is under my control now, you don't have to worry."
"It's actually true?"
Shizune said with a look of disbelief.
"Of course it's true."
Shihui Aburame smiled and said, "Orochimaru, you are not allowed to hurt anyone in Konoha."
"Yes."
Orochimaru replied respectfully.
"It's just..."
Shizune opened his mouth, not knowing how to describe it.
As a ninja from Konoha, I grew up listening to the stories of Sannin.
Especially since she has followed Tsunade for many years, she deeply understands their power.
But now Orochimaru has surrendered to Shihui Aburame.
Shizune subconsciously closed her black stocking legs.
Everyone has a strong mentality.
Besides, she has a special relationship with Shihui Aburame.
"Shizune sister."
Shihui Aburame talked about Orochimaru's arrangements, "He will be responsible for Cursed Seal's experiments from now on."
Shizune came back to his senses, still feeling dazed.
It wasn't until Shihui Aburame patted her hip-covering skirt that she reacted.
"Yes."
Shizune said and glared at him.
Shihui Aburame raised his eyebrows.
Shizune was so frightened that he quickly took two steps back and distanced himself from him.
"Orochimaru, you summon Ichikishimahime."
Shihui Aburame saw this and let her go.
Orochimaru bit his thumb and pressed it to the ground.
Summoning Technique!
The smoke cleared and Ichikishimahime appeared.
"What happened to her?"
Shizune stared hard and couldn't help but ask.
"Ryūchi Cave's top brass."
Shihui Aburame said casually, "Sister Shizune, please take Orochimaru to the laboratory."
Shizune looked at Ichikishimahime.
She looks so exquisite and looks very small, so there should be no problem.
"One more thing."
Shihui Aburame suddenly remembered something and said, "Remember to publicize that I captured Orochimaru and brought back Konoha."
"I understand."
Shizune nodded.
She left the Hokage office with Orochimaru.
"Ryūchi Cave, have you dealt with it over there?"
Shihui Aburame looked at Ichikishimahime and asked.
"Just go back once in a while."
Ichikishimahime replied.
"That's good."
Shihui Aburame touched his chin, thinking about her use.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems to be of no use.
But her strength is good, and she can be used as a personal guard.
"What's the smallest size your snake body can be?"
Shihui Aburame thought for a while and asked.
Ichikishimahime clapped his hands.
Bang.
Her body disappeared, replaced by a small dark blue crystal-like snake, less than five centimeters in length.
"So small?"
Shihui Aburame was a little surprised.
At critical moments, it should be quite good to use on Yin people.
"In the future, when no one is around, you will use the human form."
Shihui Aburame looked around, took out a pen holder, and said, "If there are outsiders, just stay inside."
"Yes."
Ichikishimahime jumped up and fell into the pen holder.
Shihui Aburame took a look and felt like he had a pet in his previous life.
And Ichikishimahime is motionless, just like a crystal toy.
Not long after, the door was opened again.
"Shiki."
Shizune walked in and said, "Both things have been arranged."
"Thank you, sister Shizune."
Shihui Aburame flipped through the documents and asked, "What happened to Konoha recently?"
"No."
Shizune paused and said, "There is one thing related to Lady Tsunade."
"What?"
Shihui Aburame raised his head and looked at her.
"Next week is August."
Shizune reminded.
"Teacher's birthday."
Shihui Aburame responded.
Tsunade's birthday is August 2nd.
What to give?
Shihui Aburame is thoughtful.
He thought of the power of human power over heaven Gu.
Just leave it at that.
Let Tsunade enlighten you, and after becoming a Gu Master, you can use Sage Mode more freely.
As for him not being able to use it himself.
What's more, there is a second Aperture Gu among the fifth-level Gu.
Two in one. Foretell, I will be a traitor on my birthday.
