Orochimaru, running away with a bucket

The Smoke Illusion Technique will make his body become something between smoke and solid, making it difficult for physical attacks and ninjutsu other than wind escape to have an impact on him. However, the Smoke Illusion Technique will continuously consume chakra and it is difficult to maintain for too long.

Paji——!

A sticky liquid like mud stuck to the window, emitting a dazzling light and exploding.

boom--!

In the busy streets, people who were talking and laughing just a second ago now let out screams of terror.

“Isn’t that…isn’t that a company?”

"Someone attacked the company?"

"That's the president's office!"

……

"Wind Release: Gale Wind Palm!"

Orochimaru's hands turned into afterimages and he completed the seals in an instant. He put his hands together and squeezed out the wind to form a fierce gale that resisted the impact of the explosion and blew away the smoke.

"A ninja from Konoha?"

The smoke cleared, and a ninja with patterns painted on his face appeared in the room. He glanced from Orochimaru to Qinghe and said contemptuously: "President of the White Snake Company, even if you want to hire a ninja, you must hire a reliable ninja! What's the point of hiring a child? Can she protect you..."

Before the ninja could finish his words, he saw Qinghe turning into smoke and floating towards him.

"what?!"

The ninja opened his eyes wide and found that he couldn't move his body.

"How dare you look down on Lord Orochimaru!"

Qinghe's voice rang in the ninja's ears, controlling his body, raising his hand to strangle his neck, slowly tightening it.

"How is it possible... that my body is out of control... What kind of monster are you..."

The ninja struggled in agony, his eyes bulging out, his mouth wide open as a coughing sound came from his throat, and saliva dripped from his mouth.

"Die in agony! I will take care of those who insulted Lord Orochimaru..."

Qinghe's voice was filled with anger. In the hearts of all the Ibri clan members, Lord Orochimaru was their benefactor and savior!

With the appearance of Lord Orochimaru, they were able to escape from their life as moles in the cave.

It was Lord Orochimaru who saved the Ibri clan!

"Hey! What's wrong with you? Didn't you succeed? The ninjas from Konoha are coming..."

A female ninja rushed in from the shattered wall and saw a strange scene of her companion strangling himself to death. Even if it was an illusion, she would not let herself strangle herself to death!

"Watari! What are you doing?!"

The female ninja exclaimed, trying to rush over and knock out Watari who seemed to be under a special illusion.

"Wind Style: Night Wind!"

Orochimaru put his fingers together and hooked them at the female ninja, and the air currents gathered to form a hurricane.

boom--!

The female ninja turned into a chair in the hurricane, and then the chair was crushed by the hurricane.

Substitution?

Orochimaru took a step to the side and turned around to face the desk, with lightning condensing at the fingertips of the five fingers of his right hand.

"Lightning Release: Five Finger Thunder Bomb!"

boom--!

Orochimaru struck the abdomen of the female ninja who was rushing towards him with a kunai with his right hand. No, it was more like the female ninja bumped into Orochimaru's hand rather than a strike!

A strong flash of lightning flashed, and the female ninja screamed in pain, falling down with smoke coming out of her body.

"You're really looking down on me by using such a crude trick as the Substitution Technique in front of me."

Orochimaru saw the female ninja's movements and naturally knew which direction she would attack from.

(The substitution technique is clearly explained in the anime and official books. It is about replacing yourself with something like a wooden stake at a certain speed. The reason why it was later relegated to the side is that the enemy has the Sharingan and the Samsara eye, which can see how you replace yourself with an object. The substitution technique is completely useless.

Instead of wasting time moving things, it would be better to stab someone from behind. In fact, the purpose of using a substitute technique is to trick the enemy into thinking you've been attacked, thus lowering their guard and creating a vulnerability.

In the original plot of the anime, it is shown many times that the substitution technique is comparable to the power of the Heaven's Hand of the Gods. Don't think too much about it, that is the original creation of the animation team. In fact, the substitution technique is really a very ordinary E-level ninjutsu. It relies on a surprise attack in a battle of equal strength. When it is used when the strength is overwhelming... it is used to tease fools.

For example, when Kakashi used the substitution technique to exchange his own shadow clone with Naruto's, he was really just teasing a child.

Senju Tobirama developed the Shadow Clone Technique to target the Uchiha Sharingan. Even the Hyuga clan's Byakugan was shot even when they were lying down, and it was impossible to tell the difference between the Shadow Clone and the original form.

Orochimaru picked up the kunai. The blade of the kunai emitted a strange color, obviously coated with some kind of poison. He put the kunai in front of his nose and sniffed it.

Is it a poison that paralyzes the entire body of a person who is scratched?

You came prepared. In order to capture Qinghe alive and get the recipe from him?

Really, can’t you just let me earn some research funding quietly?

Orochimaru casually threw the kunai to the ground and said, "Qinghe, don't kill them. The information is important. We need to know who hired them."

There is no point in killing these hired ninjas; what matters is who hired them.

"Yes, Lord Orochimaru."

Smoke drifted out from the ninja named Watari and condensed together to form the figure of Qinghe.

"The main body is coming."

Orochimaru disappeared in a flash, used the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to his home in Konoha, and continued his research before going to the Land of Waves.

It’s too fast… I can’t even see Lord Orochimaru’s movements clearly!

Is there really such a fast instant teleportation technique in the world?

Qinghe sighed again, looked at the unconscious Du, and kicked him.

If Lord Orochimaru didn't need the information you know, I would never spare your lives!

"What happened?"

Orochimaru, Tsunade, and Jiraiya arrived at the office that seemed to have been swept by a strong wind.

"Konoha's ninjas? As you can see, they were the ninjas who came to attack me, but they were dealt with by my guards."

Qinghe calmly straightened his clothes, looked around at the damaged office and said, "It seems I need to find someone to repair my office."

"Master Jiraiya's chance to show off his skills..."

Looking at the two unconscious ninjas on the ground, Jiraiya, who wanted to show off his skills, lowered his head in disappointment.

"Why are you so dejected?"

Tsunade patted Jiraiya on the back.

"It's time for us to get on with our mission."

Orochimaru turned into a black shadow and jumped out of the broken wall, followed by Tsunade and Jiraiya.

What…what’s going on? What’s going on?

The merchants who came to purchase goods were shocked to see people holding various tools as weapons and howling to teach the attackers a lesson, as if it was not the White Snake Pharmaceutical Technology Company that was attacked, but their families.

They couldn't understand why White Snake Pharmaceutical Technology Company was so popular and welcomed by people in the Country of Waves.

Volume 65: Chapter : Uzumaki Chigusa Likes to Watch the Emperor's Uncle

The Land of Whirlpools, the Hidden Village of Uzushio, where the Uzumaki clan lives.

In the Land of Whirlpools, there is only one village, the Hidden Whirlpool Village. Rather than saying that the Land of Whirlpools is a country, it is better to say that the Land of Whirlpools is a village. From the map, the Land of Whirlpools is a very small island very close to the Land of Fire.

The Uzumaki clan, who are distant relatives of the Senju clan, inherited the sage body of Ashura, the second son of the Six Paths Sage, and possesses vigorous vitality.

The characteristic of the Uzumaki clan is their red hair, which will turn white when their vitality fades or their chakra is over-consumed.

The people of the Uzumaki clan have a very long lifespan, so the Uzushiogakure Village is also known as the Longevity Village.

After Uzumaki Ashina, who had signed a friendly agreement with Senju Hashirama, passed away at the age of 67, the new head of the Uzumaki clan and the village chief of Uzushiogakure is Uzumaki Chigusa, a young woman with red hair and red eyes full of vitality, who currently has the strongest sealing technique in Uzushiogakure.

Orochimaru's shadow clone transformed into Miyabi and walked on a bridge built over a river in the Uzushiogakure Village, recalling everything about the Uzushiogakure Village in his mind.

The information about the Hidden Uzushio Village was naturally provided by her reliable Doraemon. It was not very important information, and Danzo Shimura gave it very readily. Even if Sarutobi Hiruzen knew about it, he would not say anything.

After all, Orochimaru gives everyone the impression that he is full of curiosity about everything, and all his research results started from his initial interest.

On the left side of this bridge called Whirlpool Bridge, you can see mountains, and on the other side is a river that winds its way straight to the sea. The whirlpool at the confluence of the river and the sea has existed for an unknown amount of time. Perhaps this whirlpool is the source of the Uzumaki clan's family crest.

In the Uzumaki Village, buildings with the Uzumaki family crest of the Uzumaki clan can be seen everywhere. As a very small island, the scenery on the island is beautiful. Although it is early spring, the weather is much warmer than that in the Land of Fire.

What a peaceful place!

Miye sighed in her heart when she heard a child's bell-like laughter coming from behind her. She stopped and saw two children running by, talking and laughing.

Unfortunately, this place will be destroyed soon...

In the original work, it seems that the Uzumaki clan's overly powerful sealing technique made many ninja villages and clans in the world feel afraid, so they united to launch an invasion of the Uzushiogakure Village.

The Uzumaki clan wasn't good at fighting except for sealing techniques, and the ninja alliance was the one that invaded the Hidden Uzushio Village...

But even if it was an invasion, such a large-scale action would not have gone unnoticed by Konoha. Given the size of the Uzushiogakure Village, it shouldn't be impossible to transfer all the people in this village to Konoha, right?

Or were the elite from various ninja villages and clans sent to invade the Hidden Uzushio Village?

This is the only way to explain why Konoha did not notice the invasion of Uzushiogakure.

Granny Mito is still alive, and besides, Sarutobi-sensei doesn't seem like the type of person who would sit idly by while his ally is about to be attacked.

Another point is, why would those ninja villages and ninja clans act together?

Was it discussed in advance?

Or did they want to obtain the Uzumaki clan's sealing technique from the very beginning?

They would have the idea of destroying the Hidden Uzushio Village...is it because Granny Mito sealed the Nine-Tails in herself with her own power?

Are you worried that the seal of the tailed beast in your village will be snatched away by the Uzumaki clan, so you take the initiative?

Not to mention that all the tailed beasts except one were separated by Hashirama Senju...

After the destruction of the Uzushiogakure, the conflicts between the ninja villages of various countries began to intensify. In other words, they had the idea of using the tailed beasts to attack Konoha, so they wanted to eliminate the hidden dangers that could seal the tailed beasts in advance?

If that's the case, then it all comes down to that idiot Senju Hashirama who betrayed the Uzushiogakure Village!

Miye didn't think further. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Uchiha Madara was right. Why didn't he give Hashirama Senju a hard blow and knock all the water out of his brain?

Otherwise, he wouldn't do so many stupid things!

Could it be that Hashirama Senju's exaggerated strength was acquired at the cost of his intelligence?

Miyabi thought of a very terrifying possibility, and then thought of the terrifying vitality of Hashirama's cells.

understood!

Hashirama Senju was possessed by his own cells a long time ago, no wonder he is so brain-dead.

The reason why Orochimaru's shadow clone transformed into Miyako to visit the Uzushiogakure was to get the approval of the current village chief of the Uzushiogakure to open a store in the Uzushiogakure, and when the Uzushiogakure was attacked by the Allied Ninja Forces, he would save as many people as he could.

It would be even better if you could take it all away!

A snake's appetite knows no bounds, and it will try to swallow anything it sets its sights on.

In the simple and elegant room filled with a faint scent of incense, a red-haired woman with elegant manners who did not look like a ninja at all looked at Miya curiously.

"Chief Qiankusa, I apologize for disturbing you by visiting me."

Miya felt uncomfortable being stared at by Uzumaki Chigusa.

"Mr. Miya, what brings you to Uzushiogakure? Or are you just here for fun?"

Uzumaki Chigusa narrowed her red eyes. She always felt that this person named Miya gave her an awkward feeling, and the name "Miya" gave her a very familiar feeling, as if she had seen or heard it somewhere, but she couldn't remember it for a moment.

"I'm actually a writer, and also a non-staff member of the White Snake Medical Technology Company in Wave Country."

Miya placed his hands on his chest with a proper smile on his face.

"Miye..."

Uzumaki Chigusa then remembered who the person in front of her was, "You, you are that one! The author of the banned book?! Don't you think that some of the plots in your book are a bit too exaggerated?!"
