Raising the back of his hand and silently glancing at the time displayed on his watch, Lei Luo raised his head and said to Uchiha Fugaku: "Sorry, I have something else to do now."
"If you're not in a hurry, ten minutes... no, let's do it in half an hour."
"You can come to my place then and we can chat slowly if you have any questions."
Although Lei Luo's tone seemed plain and gentle, there was an undeniable aura in it, and Uchiha Fugaku could feel that the other party was not trying to shirk.
And this is enough for him, as long as it's not like last time, where he was stopped by Gennin even though he was far away.
"Okay, I'll wait for you." Uchiha Fugaku's eyes were solemn, and after a brief nod, he didn't bother anymore and moved away from Lei Luo.
Noticing that Uchiha Fugaku's figure gradually merged into the crowd on both sides, Lei Luo raised his eyebrows. He always felt that the other person's expression and behavior were somewhat strange.
It's like I'm avoiding something.
Maybe he noticed that Lei Luo's expression was different from before. Orochimaru came forward, followed Lei Luo's line of sight, and asked in a teasing tone:
"Why, do you care about that Uchiha?"
Hearing Orochimaru's question, Lei Luo turned around, but was not in a hurry to answer.
He lowered his head and thought about something while continuing to walk forward. It wasn't until a few seconds passed that he said without looking back:
"It just happened once."
Orochimaru's heart moved, and he followed Lei Luo a few steps away. He lowered his voice and said in a "experienced" tone:
"To be honest, I also coveted the power of the Sharingan, but when I actually got it, I realized that it was nothing more than that."
Lei Luo felt the contempt in Orochimaru's words, and couldn't help but smile, but he didn't say much, just said in a teasing tone:
"Orochimaru, you are very brave to attack the ninjas of the same village without permission."
The meaning of Lei Luo's words is very clear: Since you Orochimaru can get the Sharingan, you must have killed the ninjas of the Uchiha clan before.
After all, the ninjas of the Uchiha clan can't obediently give their eyes to you Orochimaru, right?
Unexpectedly, Orochimaru just snorted disdainfully without any explanation. It seemed that Lei Luo's "handle" did not pose a threat to him at all.
Lei Luo glanced sideways at Orochimaru, knowing that the other person's confident appearance meant that most of the "raw materials" were not "collected" by him personally, and most likely he followed Danzo's path.
Sure enough, these guys' butts are not clean...
However, Lei Luo had no interest in these things, so he immediately changed the subject:
"Let's not talk about the Sharingan anymore. Let's continue the previous topic."
"Um...how sure are you?"
Hearing Lei Luo start to mention this again, Orochimaru secretly increased his attention, but this time his attitude changed a little.
"Lei Luo, I suggest you don't have any unreasonable thoughts." Orochimaru's face was rarely very serious, and his words contained a warning.
Unexpectedly, Lei Luo asked with a smile on his face: "What if I don't?"
Knowing that the guy next to him was getting angry again, Orochimaru felt a headache, but he could only bite the bullet and stand firm:
"Then there's nothing I can do...but I really don't want you to have any conflict with Danzo."
"From my position, I can't help you on this matter."
Lei Luo narrowed his eyes and stared at Orochimaru for a while, until goosebumps appeared all over his body. Then he looked away and his tone became calm again:
"Since your research has made me aware of it, I cannot turn a blind eye..."
"I will talk to Danzo after I go back." Lei Luo stretched out his hand, stopped Orochimaru's hesitant words, and directly gave the conclusion:
"As the boss, I think Danzo should be considerate of hard-working employees like me, and it is appropriate to pay appropriate benefits."
After saying that, Lei Luo glanced at Orochimaru again and left the last words:
"Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you."
After saying this, Lei Luo quickened his pace and stepped directly into the door of the Chinese army's tent, but he had reached his destination unknowingly.
In place, only Orochimaru, who seemed to be stunned, was left. He finally got to know Lei Luo's thick skin again:
Does Emotion Lei Luo mean that Danzo should give away the first-generation cells for free?
Are there benefits? Do you think this is a vegetable market when buying food? Buy one get one free?
There is no need to elaborate on Orochimaru's laughter and tears in his heart, but he said that Lei Luo stepped into the camp and happened to see a group of people gathered around a round table, discussing something animatedly.
"Southeast corner, southwest corner... the rain ninjas conducted another large-scale retreat..."
"Want to give chase?"
"The opponent's actions are no different than last time. They behave in a controlled manner between advance and retreat. They are obviously well prepared. A hasty attack may trigger a decisive battle in advance."
"The decisive battle is a decisive battle! We are not short of top-notch combat power, and we can defeat the rain ninja in one fell swoop!"
"Idiot! Do you want to fight Hanzo until death? Don't forget Sunagakure and Iwagakure!"
With a word from each other, everyone in front of them spoke out all the topics discussed, allowing Lei Luo to quickly make a basic judgment on the current situation.
"Hanzo shrank again?" Lei Luo felt strange. He thought that killing the sea snake would make Hanzo angry, and he would send troops for revenge at all costs.
Unexpectedly, the news I heard was that Yu Ren had retreated again.
Mito Mono was listening to the "advisers" discussing strategies, and his head ached slightly.
The development of the situation disrupted his plans several times, making him a little confused, and he had various indecisive emotions lingering in his heart.
Mito Kadoyan looked away from the map and took off his glasses. He wanted to pinch the Seimei acupoint to lower the intraocular pressure, but unexpectedly he saw Lei Luo's figure as he turned his eyes.
This guy was leaning towards the periphery of the crowd, slightly stretching his neck to look at the map inside, with a rather relished look on his face.
Seeing this scene, Mito Menyan raised his hand and put it on his chest, coughed slightly, and said slightly tiredly: "Okay, let's get here first today."
Everyone stopped their discussion, nodded slightly, and then turned away. Therefore, everyone noticed Lei Luo standing behind them.
He is of medium build, dressed in black robes, and has a slightly youthful face. He seems to be less than twenty years old.
The other party was looking at the map with some interest at this time, looking intently at the map spread out on the table, seemingly not paying attention to the gazes around him.
Some people's expressions moved slightly, as if they were aware of Lei Luo's identity, and they immediately greeted him: "Lord Jueying."
This call quickly made other people react, and they all greeted Lei Luo respectfully.
Facing the highest combat force sent by the village, no matter how young Lei Luo looks or which forces are involved behind the scenes, respect is always the minimum attitude.
Even though Lei Luo revealed his true appearance and they all knew each other's names, in this situation, everyone chose to use the code name Jueying.
It is worth mentioning that the "consultants" present are generally relatively young. Judging from their appearance, there are almost no people over thirty years old, and they do not seem to be the patriarchs of major families.
The greetings rang in his ears one after another. Lei Luo slowly looked away, turned his head and nodded lightly to everyone, as a temporary response.
Seeing that Lei Luo seemed unwilling to say anything, everyone did not continue talking and filed out one after another.
After everyone had left, Mito Menyan smiled at Lei Luo and spoke first:
"I didn't expect you to look so young, Jueying."
"No, I should call you Lei Luo now."
After saying that, Mito Kadoyan leaned back naturally and sat directly on the chair behind him. At the same time, he stretched out his hand to invite Lei Luo to sit down.
Lei Luo didn't see anyone outside, so he found a chair nearby and sat across the round table across from Mito Monoyan.
