Yellow sand filled the sky.
Orochimaru and Kabuto walked one after the other through the desert.
" Lord Orochimaru, do you think that person might have already guessed our plan?"
The man behind him asked in a deep voice.
"Perhaps."
Even if he knew, he wouldn't stop it.
He recalled the time when that person disguised himself as Danzo and turned Konoha upside down.
Orochimaru chuckled and said, "After all, that person doesn't have any friendly intentions towards Konoha."
Dou adjusted his glasses and then asked, "What about the gift he mentioned..."
Who knows?
Orochimaru licked his lips, a strange glint in his eyes:
"I'm also quite curious to see what kind of big gift he'll prepare."
Sunagakure, Kazekage Building.
Having just finished processing his office documents, Fugaku looked out the window with excitement!
Three and a half years!
Do you know how I've gotten through these past three and a half years?!
I can't go back to my village, and I can't gather with my family!
Alone in this foreign land, he diligently handles his domestic business during working hours.
I secretly handle company business after get off work hours!
These three and a half years were arguably the most agonizing period for Fugaku!
The psychological damage was even greater than that of previous Shinobi World Wars.
After enduring these three and a half years, I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel today.
This moment is a spiritual elevation, a mental tremor!
It even gave Fugaku the illusion that his Mangekyō had been amplified.
Fugaku lowered his head and pondered for a moment.
Could this unique, grueling training also have an effect on the Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan...?
At that moment, Fugaku thought of Sasuke, who only Futatsudomoe...
"Bang bang bang!"
"Enter."
Fugaku turned to look at the newcomer. "Did Orochimaru send a letter?"
The Anbu nodded and took a letter from his pocket, handing it over.
Fugaku took the letter and carefully read it twice.
The corners of his mouth turned up even wider.
Tell him there's no need to wait until tomorrow; meet him at the usual spot in ten minutes.
The Anbu nodded and then withdrew.
Fugaku clutched the letter tightly, his face filled with excitement.
It's finally time to get out of this damn place!
Six months ago, Orochimaru sent a letter inviting an alliance to fight against Konoha.
Upon receiving the message from Haruma, Fugaku immediately agreed.
The timing of the operation was also set for this year's Joint Chunin Ninja Exams in Konoha.
According to Haruma Boy, Orochimaru now intends to murder the Kazekage and take his place in Konoha.
How could Fugaku not be excited!
Ten minutes later.
A secluded little valley.
A few huge rocks barely shielded Orochimaru from the sandstorms blowing in from all sides, as he waited alone for Rasa to arrive.
Hiss hiss hiss
Alone, Fugaku entered the valley without any precautions.
Seeing their target approach, Orochimaru spread his hands and said, " Rasa, we're here."
Before he could finish speaking, two venomous snakes shot out from the sleeves of Orochimaru's outstretched hands, baring their mouths and lunging to bite at Fugaku's neck!
at the same time,
Orochimaru bent down and shot a gleaming blade from his mouth, aiming straight for Fugaku's chest!
"Art of Blade - Secret Slash!"
The figure of Kabuto above the valley was also revealed, his hands tightly wrapped in green Chakra!
Kabuto aimed at the back of Fugaku's head and leaped down!
Neck, heart, back of the head
Attacking all three key points has created a dead end!
As the sharp blade pierced his throat, Orochimaru's eyes flashed with barely concealed excitement!
This is, after all, just a glimpse of one village!
He is also the first Kage Level powerhouse to die at Orochimaru's hands!
Bang,
"Clone!!!"
Orochimaru suddenly turned around and looked up!
Kabuto, a beat slower, also quickly moved behind Orochimaru to stand guard!
Hiss hiss hiss
Orochimaru used his hand to pull the sticky, sharp sword out of his throat, and said in a sinister tone, "So you've been wary of me all along."
" Rasa!"
Fugaku above shook his head.
He then ripped off the hat that symbolized the Kazekage from his head and threw it down into the valley.
Orochimaru tightened his grip on the sword, his eyes filled with confusion as he watched the brim of the hat slowly fall.
Countless small snakes crawled out from under my feet, spreading outwards to the surrounding valley.
They immediately began searching for any other Sand Shadow ninja who might be lurking nearby.
"The position of Kazekage is now yours, Orochimaru."
Then, Fugaku thoughtfully pulled out a scroll from his pocket. "Inside is the Kazekage's everyday attire, as well as a Anbu of the ANBU guards protecting the Kazekage Building."
After saying that, Fugaku threw the scroll down.
A series of inexplicable developments left Orochimaru even more perplexed, his brow furrowed in bewilderment.
The Dafuweng said this is to repay the favor he did for your surgery.
Fugaku was still worried that Orochimaru would disagree with taking over, so after saying his last sentence, he immediately used the Body Flicker Technique to leave the valley.
Upon hearing this,
Orochimaru's pupils contracted sharply, his heart filled with horror!
Not just the Kirigakure?!
Even the Kazekage was controlled by this person?!
Just how many more of those people are there? The terror lurking in the shadows, unknown to anyone!
The last time Orochimaru was this shocked was the last time.
That is, when you see the leader of Akatsuki, and see those eyes that are just like the Sage of Six Paths '!
After the venomous snake finished inspecting the valley and confirmed that Orochimaru was not lying in ambush, he also put away his weapon.
Looking at the scroll on the ground not far away, Orochimaru murmured, "This is the great gift he spoke of..."
Equally shocked, Kabuto was only just regaining his senses.
First, he picked up the scroll from the ground, checked it to make sure it was safe, and then handed it to Orochimaru.
Konoha, main gate.
"Hey Sakura, I'll definitely protect you during this mission!"
Naruto, on his first mission outside the village, seemed very excited.
They chattered incessantly around Kakashi and Sakura the whole way:
" Kakashi-sensei, I'm a true ninja now!"
Naruto pointed to his Forehead Protector, a broad smile on his face.
Hey, Naruto!
Sakura glared at Naruto with a stern face and pointed to the uncle next to the group.
"Our mission is to protect Mr. Tazuna and ensure his safe return to the Land of Waves!"
"I don't need your protection!"
Naruto scratched his head, grinned confidently, and said, "Don't worry!"
"Whether it's you or Uncle Tazuna, I will protect you!"
Naruto nudged his teammate, who had a cold expression, with his elbow. "Right, Sai?"
Dressed in all black with a long sword slung across his back, Sai avoided Naruto's touch before coldly replying, "I will not fail a C-rank mission."
Kakashi, wearing a mask, walked at the back of the group, ignoring Naruto's antics, but giving Tazuna a deep look, who had been silent the whole way.
Danzo's death allowed Sarutobi to inherit all of Root's legacy.
Sai, who was slightly younger, filled in for Sasuke and joined the Ninja Academy as a transfer student.
After graduation,
Along with Sakura and Naruto, they joined Team 7, which was led by Kakashi!
This trip out of the village was the first Class C mission that their Team 7 had carried out!
Protect the bridge builder, Tazuna, and ensure his safe return to the Land of Waves.
