Thinking of Lei Luo's perception ability, mind reading, and teleportation, Orochimaru had a vague understanding: Lei Luo's core ability may be related to the spirit and soul, which can also explain why Lei Luo wants to get it so much.
The art of spiritualization.
Although he still didn't know what happened to Lei Luo's inexplicable high-speed state, Orochimaru didn't want to think about it at this time.
Just because Lei Luo clearly showed his unwillingness to hurt Kato and take his life, this result was barely acceptable to Orochimaru.
After all, the relationship between Orochimaru and Kato Dan is not that deep, so Orochimaru is naturally unwilling to make Lei Luo "unhappy" because of this trivial matter, thereby interfering with his subsequent "team formation plan."
Orochimaru was not willing to give up the investment he made in Lei Luo, so there were some things that Orochimaru could only choose to turn a blind eye to.
This is the choice of interests and... the change of position.
Although Lei Luo was seemingly indifferent to Orochimaru's suggestions, in fact he had been secretly observing the other person out of the corner of his eye. After all, Orochimaru already knew his plan, and Lei Luo had to prevent Orochimaru from running out to "snitch".
In that case, he would probably have to slow down and reverse the flow to greet Orochimaru. Although this is very risky, after all, this is a densely populated camp.
Fortunately, Orochimaru is very aware of current affairs, behaves very honestly, and has no intention of going against Lei Luo. This also makes Lei Luo slightly increase his trust in Orochimaru in his heart.
This kind of trust is rare for Lei Luo.
Just because, in Lei Luo's eyes, only those who can view problems with his interests as the center are qualified to be called his companions.
Orochimaru undoubtedly already has some "potential" in this area, and Lei Luo is looking forward to Orochimaru's "follow-up performance".
However, this time when dealing with Kato Dan, Lei Luo did not want to call Orochimaru, lest it would backfire and irritate the opponent too much.
Now that the plan has been drawn up, Lei Luo decided not to talk nonsense and went to bed decisively. Anyway, the coordinates were there, and he didn't think Kato Dan could escape from his grasp.
As soon as the opponent leaves the camp, it will be Lei Luo's opportunity to take action. He will launch a surprise attack on Kato Dan in a suitable place where he will not be discovered by others, aiming to end the battle with one blow.
"Okay, if there's nothing else to do, I'll go to bed first."
After taking off his clothes and covering himself with the quilt, Lei Luo glanced at Orochimaru for the last time and slowly closed his eyes. Soon after, a gentle snore sounded.
It is worth mentioning that Lei Luo did not remind Orochimaru anything before going to bed, because this was Lei Luo's test of Orochimaru, and the purpose was to test Orochimaru's position.
Orochimaru, who had complicated thoughts, was obviously not sleepy at all. Seeing Lei Luo entering the dream without any precautions, he couldn't help but complain: "You are really big-hearted..."
After saying that, Orochimaru just sat back on the chair, closed his eyes and fell into a state of sleep.
I don't know if Orochimaru was aware of Lei Luo's intentions, or if he realized that he had quietly entered Lei Luo's "investigation period" on him.
…
Another two days have passed, and there is no movement from Kato Dan. It should be because there are no tasks to be released in the near future. Lei Luo is not in a hurry and is patiently waiting for the opportunity to come.
He just sat in the tent all day long, flipping through sealing materials when he had nothing to do, and seemed quite leisurely and at ease.
Kato Dan may leave the camp at any time. In order to avoid any accidents in the next actions, Lei Luo has not turned on accelerated learning this time, so as to avoid mental loss and being unable to maintain peak condition.
A lion fights a rabbit with all his strength, Lei Luo still understands this truth, not to mention that Kato Dan is also a well-known powerful jounin in Konoha, and Lei Luo cannot be tolerated.
While Lei Luo was waiting, Orochimaru may have sensed Lei Luo's thoughts, or perhaps to reassure Lei Luo, he never left Lei Luo's residence.
Jiraiya had come several times in the past two days. The reason was that Tsunade was either undergoing intensive training or studying the live Sanshou fish brought back by Lei Luo and Orochimaru, trying to prepare an antidote, and had no time to talk to him.
And Orochimaru stayed with Lei Luo all day long. Jiraiya suddenly lost two people to talk to, so he had no choice but to visit Lei Luo frequently.
But Lei Luo had something secret in his mind, so he often sent Jiraiya away without even a few words, making Jiraiya very embarrassed.
In addition to Jiraiya, there were some people who came to visit Lei Luo, but they were all turned away by Lei Luo on the grounds of "physical discomfort".
Most of these people are important figures in major families, and there are also some powerful jounin. Because they are afraid of their reputation, they generally hide when they come, as if they don't want to be seen by others.
If it were normal times, Lei Luo might be interested in chatting with them to see if he could make a few more deals.
But this was the critical period for seeking the art of spiritual transformation, and Lei Luo didn't want to distract them, so he could only "wrong" them for a while.
With Lei Luo's status, no one dared to question what he said, and because the visitors were all people of some status and had high moral standards, there was no entanglement.
After Mito Menyan learned about Lei Luo's movements from his subordinates, although he felt a little strange, he did not ask the latter about his intentions. He seemed to have acquiesced in Lei Luo's continued stay in the camp because it suited him
mind.
For nearly a month, Hanzo did not attack, and the Rain Ninja were generally on the defensive.
Although Mito Monoyan had the idea of attacking, he gave up the plan after weighing it.
Lei Luo's "term" is coming to an end, and it will take time for Hiruzen Sarutobi to fill this gap in combat power. After all, the latter is still entangled with the Iwa Ninja in the country at this time and cannot support him in a short time.
Under such circumstances, if we attack the rain ninja, regardless of casualties, even if Konoha can win one or two battles, it will not have much impact on the overall situation, but it may stimulate Hanzo.
When Lei Luo completely leaves, no one knows whether Konoha will suffer a retaliatory counterattack by Hanzo. By then, they will lack top-level combat power and no one will be able to stop Hanzo. Heavy losses can be expected.
From a long-term perspective, Mito Monobu cannot help but consider the possibility of this situation happening, which is also the fundamental reason why he has been on hold.
Doing this is not only a helpless response when combat power is tight, but it can also be regarded as a way to spread suspicion.
Its ultimate goal is to make Hanzo unable to judge whether Lei Luo is still lingering in the Rain Country based on Konoha's offensive and defensive trends, so that Hanzo will not dare to act rashly.
"I really hope Jueking can stay here forever..." Throwing the letter in his hand on the table, Mito Kadoyan sighed with a frown, and then closed his eyes irritably.
Not far from Mito Kadobu, Nara Shikaku and Yamanaka Kaiichi, who had been sitting for a while, looked at each other silently and exchanged opinions.
After a few seconds, Nara Shikaku took the lead and asked: "Master Men Yan, are Master Jueying leaving?"
As soon as Nara Shikaku finished speaking, Yamanaka Haiichi added with a slightly worried expression: "Hanzo's retreat is entirely because he is afraid of Lord Zeekage. If Lord Zeekage leaves..."
"I really don't understand why the village would recall Lord Jueying at this juncture."
