Hearing this, Kakashi raised his eyebrows in surprise, lowered his head and looked at Orochimaru and asked in surprise, "You mean... you are not here at all!"

Orochimaru lightly shrugged and said with an indifferent expression, "That's exactly what I mean. My body is not here at all, and... I have no reason to stay here now. Our mission is just to delay you anyway~ But

It doesn’t look like we’re doing a very good job.”

After finishing speaking, Orochimaru showed a hidden smile to Sasuke, "It seems that Ashes-sama has taught you very well. I now understand why he chose you~ So... see you again, little brats of the Uchiha family.

…”

Turning his neck suddenly, Orochimaru hit his neck on the kunai on top without hesitation, easily cutting his throat...

The dead Orochimaru also turned into another person under the gaze of the three people... As he said, it was just another person under his control. It was not Orochimaru at all...

Throwing away the person in her hand, Naruko came over to look at Orochimaru who had turned into someone else. She shrugged in surprise and said, "So... we have actually been fighting a puppet or a clone? This is really a bit confusing.

Disappointed...I thought we killed two enemies."

With a slight sigh, Kakashi stood up from the corpse, shrugged helplessly and said, "This is reasonable, I don't think we can kill two people so easily."

Members of the Akatsuki organization, especially one of them is Orochimaru, one of the former three ninjas..."

Sighing lightly, Naruko smiled bitterly, shook her head slightly and said, "Well, it seems they are just here to delay us, we have to keep going! Gaara is still waiting for us to rescue him!"

"

Kakashi nodded slightly, glanced at the two corpses, took a deep breath and said, "You're right, it's time for us to hit the road! There are still many things to deal with!"

…

In a quiet corner, Orochimaru and Deidara, who were sitting cross-legged on a boulder, opened their eyes one after another, Deidara first, then Orochimaru...

Shaking his head, Deidara whispered with a distressed look on his face, "That little girl... wow! So violent! I can feel that she didn't want to kill me at all, but... she still struck so hard! Wow.

!It’s really amazing!”

Orochimaru chuckled, opened his eyes and said calmly, "She and the kid from the Uchiha family are the twin ghosts who appeared three years ago..."

Deidara turned his head in surprise and looked at Orochimaru with a surprised look on his face and asked, "Senior Orochimaru...are you sure? They are the Twin Ghosts? I heard that the people in the organization wanted to admit them to join. Who can

To think that one of them turned out to be our target..."

Having said this, Deidara looked up and down Orochimaru, who was still smiling, and asked with some confusion, "Speaking of which... Orochimaru-senpai, why did you come back so soon? I thought they would torture you."

…”

Orochimaru smiled slightly, shrugged and said, "I know~ I wasn't going to say anything to them, so... I committed suicide~ and then came back."

Deidara nodded slightly, then smiled bitterly and said, "This is really troublesome... Not only did he not catch the Kyuubi, he even failed to complete the task of delaying the time~ He only delayed it by less than

Half an hour later, if the boss asks, it will be really troublesome~"

While talking, Deidara scratched his head helplessly, but he was not afraid at all, as if he just found this troublesome...

Orochimaru lightly shrugged and said with an indifferent expression, "I believe he won't blame us in the short term. After all, Ichibi will be there soon, and he needs our help... so in the short term, we are safe."

"

As they were talking, a green plant suddenly emerged from the ground and appeared in front of the two of them...

Looking at the sudden appearance of the pitcher plant, Deidara swallowed softly and asked nervously, "Is Orochimaru-senpai right?"

The pitcher plant opened slowly, revealing a black and white face, and nodded gently at Deidara. The pitcher plant said lightly, "Yes, he is right, one tail will be there soon."

It will be in place, we need to start acting as soon as possible, but before that..."

While talking, Nepenthes slowly turned its head, sighed helplessly and said, "The premise is that you have to escape as soon as possible. Maybe it's too late to say this now... I wish you good luck!"

After saying that, the pitcher plant slowly closed up and dived underground again, revealing the scene behind him. Two people, one of whom Orochimaru knew, was a villain who shouldn't be here~

Looking at the people who appeared here, Orochimaru showed a helpless expression, turned his head towards Deidara and lightly shrugged his shoulders and said, "The problem is really getting serious now~ Deidara, we may have to...

It's doomed... If only one of us can survive, I hope it's me~"

Deidara glanced at Orochimaru, who had a strange expression, and then at the two people who suddenly appeared in front of them. He slightly raised his eyebrows and asked, "Senior Orochimaru, these two people...were they scared away just now?"

Absolutely?"

Orochimaru lightly shrugged, and said helplessly, "Yes~ He did scare away Zetsu, and he should also scare us away, but it's a pity that we can't escape like Zetsu..."

Hearing this, Deidara swallowed softly, shrank his neck nervously and asked, "This person...could he be the person mentioned in the intelligence?"

Orochimaru nodded noncommittally, and then said helplessly, "That's right~ from the Country of Fire...or in other words, the ashes who are on the side of the Country of Fire. When meeting this person, they cannot betray the organization..."

"That means you don't think anyone who encounters him can defeat him or escape, right?"

"That's probably what it means..."

After dealing with Deidara, Orochimaru cleared his throat, stood up slowly, bowed slightly to Ashes who was carrying a strange woman not far away, and asked respectfully, "Isn't this... Ashes?"

Sir! Why do you have time to come here?"

Ashes opened his mouth, looked at Orochimaru and said jokingly, "Rebel Orochimaru... I didn't expect to meet you here, what a surprise~"

Orochimaru rolled his eyes incomprehensibly, saying like a ghost, he didn't expect to meet me here... He just came to see me specifically!

What does he want to do? What weird thing does he want to do? And the most critical question now is...who is this woman next to him?

Although Yakushi Kabuto mentioned to himself that there was a woman following Ashes when he was brought back by Ashes, he didn't pay much attention to it, but now it seems... this woman's identity is not trivial!

As if aware of Orochimaru's gaze, Ashes pointed at Clara beside him, smiled at Orochimaru and said, "Oh~ you haven't met the great teacher yet, let me introduce to you, this is my teacher and

Companion, Clara~"

Orochimaru nodded politely, nodded slightly to the teacher next to Ashes and said, "Please take care of me when we first meet, Ms. Clara."

Clara smiled slightly, looked Orochimaru up and down and then said with a smile, "Ah~ I heard Little Ashes talking about you, saying that you learned something from Little Ashes and then defected from Konoha Village, right?

!Hello~"

Deidara, who had been left standing next to him, carefully looked at the smiling Ashes and Clara, and then looked at the smiling Orochimaru next to him...

After thinking for a moment, Deidara leaned into Orochimaru's ear and asked softly, "These two guys are easy to talk to! And they don't look like ninjas at all. Are Orochimaru-senpai really as powerful as you say?"

?Would you like me to... try a little provocation?"

Orochimaru glanced at Deidara, shrugged and said softly, "I don't recommend you do this, but...what you want to do is your own business, and I won't stop you."

Hearing this, Deidara coughed lightly, turned his head, raised his chin, and said arrogantly to Ashes, "Hey! Those two guys over there! Don't you know who we are? Are we here to come?

Aren't you afraid of death? Do you want me to reward you with two bombs? Yes!"

While talking, Deidara raised his hands and crossed them in front of him. The mouth on his face and the two mouths in his hands opened their mouths at the same time and stuck out their tongues at Ashes and Clara~

Clara, who was standing next to Hui Jin, looked up and down at the little yellow-haired man. She turned her head to Hui Jin beside her with a surprised expression and asked softly, "Little Hui Jin, this person has two mouths on his hands...why is that?"

Hui Jin lightly shrugged and said helplessly, "Who knows~ Maybe it's just for my own entertainment... I also have a mouth on my hand, so it might be more convenient to do things that are not common sense to outsiders!"

Hearing this, Clara took a small step back with a look of disgust, looked at Deidara with a distressed expression and said softly, "What a pervert, why are there people like this in this world!"

Deidara, who still had three concave mouths open, retracted his tongue in confusion, turned his head and looked at Orochimaru and asked curiously, "Senior Orochimaru, what are these two people talking about?"

Orochimaru glanced at the curious Deidara, smiled bitterly, then turned his head and whispered something into Deidara's ear...

Hearing Orochimaru's words, Deidara's face turned red instantly! He turned his head suddenly and looked at Ashes and said angrily, "Are you mistaken? This is the blood stain limit! Have you ever heard of the blood stain limit? Why are you

I will think of going in that direction!”
