Chapter 324 Being smart, pretending to be slow is stupid!
Seeing Tsunade leave, Jiraiya smiled softly and turned his head again to look at Naruto who was lying on the grass gasping for air.
Especially when Jiraiya noticed the wounds on Naruto's hands caused by the strong tearing force produced by the Rasengan, a trace of unbearability flashed in his eyes.
With a slight movement of his feet, Jiraiya disappeared into the big tree.
Step, step!
The sound of footsteps on the lawn reached Naruto's ears.
The celebrity who was lying on the lawn and resting was slightly startled, and then turned his head to look in the direction where the footsteps came from.
"A lustful fairy?"
Naruto looked at Jiraiya walking towards him. He was startled for a moment, then quickly straightened up and shouted to Jiraiya:
"Luxury Immortal, I mastered the ninjutsu you taught me just now!"
"It's only been a week since today. Have I passed the test and can be taught by Master Senju Hashirama?"
Jiraiya walked up to Naruto, yawned with a lazy look on his face, picked his ears and said nonchalantly:
"Really? I didn't see it?"
Hearing Jiraiya's tone of disbelief, Naruto retorted loudly, and at the same time prepared to stand up, intending to demonstrate to Jiraiya.
However, before Naruto could get up, a lunch box appeared in Jiraiya's hands and handed it to Naruto.
"After you finish your meal first, it won't be too late to demonstrate it to me."
Jiraiya still had a lazy expression on his face and said casually.
"G-g-g-!"
At the same time, Naruto's stomach growled at the right moment.
————
A place in the Gobi desert with a wide view.
A small house built entirely of wood is isolated on the side facing the sea.
The entire house does not look shabby, and some details even look a bit novel. Obviously, this house did not take too long to build.
Just at this time.
On the calm sea in the distance, dozens of black spots suddenly appeared from all directions, and then these black spots quickly flew towards the direction of the wooden house.
As these black spots gradually came closer, these black spots gradually became clearer. It turned out that these dozens of black spots were all bats!
When the bats were about to approach the wooden house, the door of the room was gently opened.
A ninja with dark skin, short dark green hair, and a somewhat deep look walked out of the room.
As soon as this man appeared, dozens of bats quickly gathered around this brooding man.
The deep man seemed to have learned some information through these bats, and then nodded slightly, turned around and returned to the wooden house.
As soon as he entered the wooden house, this deep man knelt down on the ground and said respectfully:
"Lord Orochimaru, after some exploration of the surrounding seaside, no traces were found."
In this wooden house, besides this deep man, there are two figures standing there quietly.
Orochimaru had a slightly interesting look on his face, sitting casually on a wooden bed against the wall, with a thoughtful look in his eyes from time to time.
Next to Orochimaru, Kabuto Yakushi stood there calmly, with his head slightly lowered, unable to see any expression on his face clearly.
This stern-faced ninja is named Lin'er. He is a subordinate of Guren. He has the ability to control bats and use bats to detect. He is considered a very good perceptual ninja.
"Any news from anyone else?"
A hoarse, slightly creepy voice came from Orochimaru's mouth.
"Lord Orochimaru, others are probably still searching, and there is no specific news."
Lin'er still spoke respectfully. When he said this, his voice paused slightly, and then he cautiously reminded:
"My subordinates guess that the four-tailed Jinchuuriki should leave here early. There is no place to hide in this area."
"Good analysis."
Orochimaru raised his eyebrows and let out a weird laugh.
Hearing Orochimaru's compliment, Lin'er's face lit up with joy. Just as he was about to continue saying something, he suddenly felt the gaze of a familiar gaze.
This look made Lin'er's body tense up slightly.
Yakushi Kabuto!!
Lin'er's eyes flashed with murderous intent, but the murderous intent soon disappeared. At the same time, the words he wanted to say just now were swallowed again.
After telling her information, Lin'er lowered her head and turned around to leave the wooden house.
Glancing in the direction Lin'er was leaving, Yakushi Kabuto's eyes flashed with disdain, what a smart fool!
What Orochimaru said just now was not a compliment. Isn't it good to do your own thing well?
Sometimes being smart can lead to death!
Orochimaru licked his lips, with a faint smile on his lips:
"Kabuto, you are really kind-hearted, but he wants to kill you!"
Yakushi Kabuto's expression remained unchanged. How could he not be clear about Lin'er's hostility?
It's just that Kabuto Yakushi doesn't care at all.
"Lord Orochimaru is joking, Lin'er is a very good perceptive ninja after all, and it is of great use at this time."
"If he died like this, it would be a big loss."
Pharmacist Kabuto pushed up his glasses, lowered his head and spoke softly.
Orochimaru slowly raised his head, his pale skin showing a hint of sickness, and for a moment, the entire wooden house fell into silence.
However, this tranquility did not last long. Not long after, the people searching around began to return one by one, telling Orochimaru the information they had found.
After a while, only Orochimaru and Kabuto Yakushi were left in the wooden house.
"What do you think?" Orochimaru said without looking back, obviously asking Yakushi Kabuto.
"This search does not seem to be really looking for the Four-Tailed Jinchuuriki. In other words, Lord Orochimaru's search is not for the Four-Tailed Jinchuuriki, but to determine something."
After a moment of silence, Medicine Master Kabuto pushed up his glasses and spoke respectfully.
"Didn't you already see this from the beginning?"
"Kabuto, although it's stupid to be smart, it's also stupid to pretend to be slow."
A hoarse voice sounded in the wooden house, causing a little cold sweat to break out on Yaoshi Kabuto's forehead.
The current Orochimaru does not have the terrifying immortality ability shown by having his two arms sealed by a ghoul like in the original work, and being resurrected from Mitarai Anko with the help of a curse seal.
Therefore, whether it is his own strength or deterrence, Orochimaru far exceeds the original.
Kabuto Yakushi briefly recalled the information he had just heard and sorted it out in his mind.
Based on Yakushi Kabuto's understanding of Orochimaru, what Orochimaru really wanted to know was to confirm his own guess.
