"It seems that your commission to escort the caravan to the Country of Grass went smoothly."
Orochimaru looked at Feng Ye, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he showed a slightly evil smile. He tilted his head back slightly and spoke to Feng Ye.
Being sent to the front line of the Land of Grass by Sarutobi Hiruzen, he originally planned to take Feng Ye with him, but failed to find Feng Ye. After asking, he learned that Feng Ye had accepted a commission to escort a caravan.
I was still thinking that I might be able to meet Kaede Ye in the Land of Grass, but I didn't expect that Kaede Ye happened to come back today and was assigned by Sarutobi Hiruzen.
certainly.
These are not the key to attracting Orochimaru's attention.
What really caught his attention was that Feng Ye's temperament was different from the last time they met!
The previous Feng Ye had more of a cautious temperament. Although a little confidence could be seen, the confidence was very restrained and not exposed.
But now, Feng Ye's temperament from top to bottom exudes a kind of confidence and vitality that belongs to young people. From the temperament, it seems that he has suddenly changed into a different person.
no doubt.
If Feng Ye's escort commission to the Country of Grass fails, his temperament will not change like this, which means that Feng Ye must have completed the task, or even not only completed the task, maybe he also encountered some accidents during the task, and
Perfectly solved the accident.
Only in this way is it possible to undergo such a big change in temperament, from being cautious, introverted, and careful to exuding vitality and confidence.
"yes."
Feng Ye nodded and said: "Although there was a little accident, it was still completed."
Hearing Feng Ye's response, Orochimaru showed a look that was already expected, let out a little "hum hum" laugh, and said: "I would like to hear it."
He was still a little interested in the unexpected change that made Feng Ye's temperament change so drastically.
But before Feng Ye could say anything, another figure ran in from the door. His steps were a little chaotic and hasty, and he looked very clumsy. It was Matt Dai.
"Sorry, sorry, I shouldn't be late."
Matt Dai touched the back of his head, smiled awkwardly, and then walked up to Orochimaru in a slight panic and said: "Lord Orochimaru, I am Matt Dai, and Lord Hokage asked me to join the advance team..."
Orochimaru's eyes moved away from Feng Ye and fell on Matt Dai, a strange color flashed in his eyes.
Forget about Feng Ye, after all, he is his disciple, and his performance is also very good, but the movements of the ninja named Matt Dai in front of him are extremely clumsy. How could Sarutobi Hiruzen send such a ninja to join him?
Advance troops.
This advance force led by him is going to the border to stop the Iwa Ninja!
Everyone in the team is an elite. There are sixteen jonins alone, six in particular, and the rest are chunin, a total of sixty people. They are all the elites among the elites.
Disguise?
Just pretending to be clumsy?
A trace of doubt flashed in Orochimaru's heart.
Although he is a bit old, Sarutobi-sensei should not suddenly lose his mind and send people here randomly. This means that the Matt Dai in front of him must have some talent and is judged to be suitable as an advance force ninja.
Just when Orochimaru was a little confused, some of the ninjas who looked at Matt Dai in astonishment couldn't help but opened their eyes and spoke.
"Hey, Matt, what are you doing? This is not the place you came from!"
"Because you can't find a ninja team willing to take you in, do you want to join the advance team in this way? Are you an idiot? You will be punished for doing such a thing!"
Among the Chuunin present, there were people who had been tricked by Matt Dai. At this time, they stared at Matt Dai with some annoyance.
The advance troops went to the Country of Grass to participate in the war against the Iwa Ninja!
Is this a joke?
Matt Dai also noticed a few chunin in the crowd who had once been his captain. They had tricked each other, which made him a little embarrassed, and he reached out and scratched his hair.
"Ahem, um... I came here after receiving orders from Lord Hokage."
"What a joke!"
Morinoi frowned and said: "How could you, a genin, be sent by Hokage to join the advance team? If you continue to mess around, you can't afford the consequences!"
Genin?
Orochimaru tilted his head slightly, looking at Matt Dai more and more strangely.
Mattei coughed, put his right fist on his chest, straightened his back slightly, and said: "Well, I am no longer a genin, I am a special jounin now."
"……enough!"
Morino Ihime finally couldn't bear it anymore and walked out of the crowd with an annoyed look on his face, intending to throw out Matt Dai who refused to listen to the dissuasion and continued to misbehave here.
Orochimaru narrowed his eyes and watched this scene, but did not speak to stop or interfere. He was also curious about Matt Dai's situation, and wanted to see what was special about Matt Dai, or was he really just a bold man?
Genin who dares to mess around here.
However.
Just when Morino Ibimu was walking towards Matt Dai, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Senior Dai is indeed a special jounin, I can testify to that."
This voice made Morinoi stunned for a moment, and many people present were also slightly surprised. When he saw that the speaker was Kaede Ye standing next to Orochimaru, he couldn't help but frown.
Don't talk about Matt Dai.
He had doubts about Feng Ye joining the advance team!
He had heard the news that Feng Ye graduated early, took part in the Chunin Examination and became the only one to pass, but even then, Feng Ye was too young!
No matter how talented he is, Feng Ye is still a young ninja without enough experience. It is difficult for him to understand that such a ninja joins the advance team.
But having said that, Fengye is a chuunin after all, so he can barely accept it.
What the hell is Mattei?!
Isn't it a joke to let a ten thousand year genin who is extremely clumsy and has messed up many tasks to join the advance force against the Iwa nin? He doesn't think Hiruzen Sarutobi would make such a decision!
"Hey, kid, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand the situation... Do you know how many bad deeds this guy has done? There's no way Hokage-sama would let such a guy join the advance team!"
Morino Ibimu spoke in a deep voice to Feng Ye.
Feng Ye had a faint smile on his face and said, "I'm not lying. Senior Dai was indeed promoted to a special jounin...Senior, you should have brought a letter of instruction, right?"
"Oh, I almost forgot!"
Hearing Feng Ye's words, Matt Dai immediately reacted, touched his pocket, and took out a sealed instruction sheet from his pocket.
Morinoi looked at this scene with some astonishment.
Orochimaru raised his eyebrows slightly and took the instruction book handed over by Matt Dai. After a cursory glance, his snake eyes suddenly shrank slightly and he looked at Matt Dai solemnly.
"I see……"
After his eyes flickered for a few times, he made a decision, put away the instruction book, and said: "Matt Dai, you and Feng Ye will not join other teams for the time being, and follow me."
Matt Dai took a deep breath and responded: "Yes, Lord Orochimaru."
Morinoi looked at this scene in astonishment. He was a little confused for a moment. He couldn't help but look at Orochimaru and said: "Lord Orochimaru, what exactly is this..."
"You'll find out if you get the chance."
After Orochimaru replied to Morinoi, he took a deep look at Matt Dai again.
After receiving Orochimaru's response, Morino Ibimu and the others looked at each other in confusion for a moment, watching Matt Dai stand next to Fengye in confusion.
What the hell?
That guy Matt Dai has really become a special jounin?!
People who are familiar with Matt Dai almost all look at him with some bewilderment.
Orochimaru did not question the order, which meant that it was true and was indeed an order from Hokage, but this order was really hard to understand.
They were finely adjusting their mentality to prepare to go to the frontline battlefield, but suddenly a ten-year-old kid and a Matt Dai came in, and their newly adjusted mentality was suddenly shattered.
