Chapter 781
"It's okay, I've been a little obsessed with reading lately."
"A book written by an author from the Land of Rain is... good. Well, it's very good."
"The author of Coming from the Land of Rain?"
Orochimaru knew who it was, that man had always been very good at messing with people's mentality.
In addition to those top-notch materials, some of the things the other party often said fascinated him even more.
Orochimaru always thought that Noah seemed to be imbued with an exaggerated illusion, or spiritual magic.
The details will have to wait until he stays with the other party for a longer period of time before he can figure it out.
"It's time to go to the Hokage Tower. The day after tomorrow is the succession ceremony."
"Ah!! So fast! Aren't there still 6 days left!"
"It seems you really like that book."
Sure enough, Noah must have recorded that strange spiritual will in the book again!
Orochimaru's curiosity was aroused again.
Chapter 26 Orochimaru’s Test
"The day after tomorrow is the takeover ceremony. In order to avoid unexpected incidents, I ask you to perform guard duties."
The handover ceremony of the Fourth Hokage is currently the top priority in Konoha Village. On the surface, it is just a few Jonin pretending to stand guard.
In fact, the secret arrangements were very careful, and even the two direct disciples were arranged.
Those who dare to cause trouble on this occasion are people or forces who are prepared to fight to the death.
The four major countries certainly don't dare to do this at present, but they may not have the intention to hire people to cause trouble secretly.
It's hard to describe the hatred during the war. The small countries surrounding the big country were basically completely destroyed as battlefields. There are countless people who hate Konoha.
Sometimes people's actions are driven by emotions. In that case, even a fireball was a big deal.
The Sandaime's request at this time was to kill without mercy. Priority was given to using illusion control among the crowd, and direct killing outside the crowd.
"Jiraiya is in the Hokage Tower, and Orochimaru is on the Hokage Rock."
"The other sides are given to Inogacho and... Uchiha Fugaku."
The Third Hokage was indeed careful in arranging the handover ceremony, but Uchiha Fugaku was proposed by Minato.
He said that he wanted to strengthen the Uchiha's participation so that they could reintegrate into the village.
And Kushina and Uchiha Mikoto are best friends, so Fugaku, who took the wife route, got this job.
The current leader of the Uchiha clan is also a character, capable of bending and stretching.
I started betting on Namikaze Minato very early. At the beginning, I might just want to get closer to the Hokage line.
After discovering that Minato might become the Fourth Hokage, he put pressure on the entire clan, and fought hard to kill the enemy on the Kirigakure front to express his stance.
This time I participated in such an important guarding mission again, which can be considered a great progress.
The guard force was handed over to his deputy, Yashiro, and he was given the responsibility of closely guarding the third and fourth generations.
New life was rising, and Hiruzen Sarutobi was in a very good mood.
Maybe he and Danzo really misunderstood the meaning of the second generation, and it may not be right to keep alienating Uchiha.
After assigning the task, the two of them were allowed to disperse. However, the Sandaime couldn't help but said to his disciple the moment he left.
"That...Jiraiya..."
"Um?"
"When I have time, I go out more often. Being in the house all the time... hurts my body..."
Jiraiya was confused for a moment, and then became furious.
"Old man, what are you talking about! Ninjas are people who have to endure everything!! Don't underestimate me! I'm just reading, do you understand?"
"Yeah, it's good to read. It's good to read. If you have nothing to do, go out for a walk."
Mainly, Jiraiya's haggardness made it difficult for Sarutobi Hiruzen to believe that this cheerful and a little too cheerful disciple only read books.
Except for Jiraiya from the Hokage Tower, everyone was angry. The teacher didn't believe in his character.
Finally, when I saw my decadent and haggard appearance from the glass on the roadside, I felt speechless and a bit vain.
Angrily, he went home to tidy up his appearance. The handsome face of the Toad Immortal was gone. How could he attract those beautiful little sisters who admired his inner beauty?
Orochimaru smiled helplessly and disappeared.
At night, Orochimaru appeared in the house of a travel writer named Adam.
"It's really scary to emerge from the shadows so late."
"You didn't want to do anything when you came to Konoha this time?"
Noah felt a little strange when he heard Orochimaru's tone. It seemed like he was encouraging him to do something.
"You were so angry after you came back. Why do you still expect to embarrass Konoha..."
"That's not true, but I thought that people like you definitely don't like to make small fuss. Isn't it true that you came to Konoha to sell books?"
Orochimaru still knows a little about Noah, and he is really brave.
It's not even a question of assassinating the Hokage, but of course he probably wouldn't do it.
Over the course of several months, Noah showed his disdain for the position of Hokage from several angles. Well... maybe it was his disdain for Sarutobi-sensei.
The evaluation of Minato Namikaze is okay, but not very high either.
This person's every move is very purposeful. If it seems aimless, it's just better to hide it.
"I'm most likely selling books this time and looking for some comrades who can develop."
"You know, the talents of Konoha are the best in the ninja world even at the current low point. For the development of the Akatsuki organization, we can only let some outstanding people take on multiple roles."
Orochimaru was a little helpless when he thought about his position as the honorary leader of the Akatsuki organization. The value of this leader had really plummeted.
I don’t know what Sansho Hanzo in the Rain Country thinks. Anyway, he doesn’t want to be the leader.
"That idiot Jiraiya is not that easy to convince. Just relying on a book is not enough."
Orochimaru was very aware of his friend's temperament, which was naive.
It always feels a little weird to have this word on a mature ninja.
This word is sometimes a good thing and sometimes a bad thing.
Perhaps Noah's impact was strong, but after Namikaze Minato came to power, this old friend might place his hopes on this disciple.
Noah is also very sober. It is still unrealistic for a book to change a person.
"Konoha's talents cannot be relied on just the few of us. Namikaze Minato has really brought a different scenery to this village."
"Then what are you going to do?"
"We still have to rely on Danzo-sama's help."
Orochimaru was speechless for a moment, but it seemed that Noah was right.
How could there not be a few powerful rebellious ninjas in Konoha, that bitch is really talented at harming his own people. Even I wanted to kill him several times and then rebel against the village.
"Of course, it is possible that we will need help from Lord Sarutobi Hiruzen in the later stage."
Noah also named a person, the former Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was the most powerful weapon to restrain the Fourth Generation.
It's very strange. It seems that the elders of every village are a group of old guys who don't do much in human affairs.
Each and every one of them was afraid that the village would not be completely torn apart, so they worked hard.
After Orochimaru heard this, he felt that the village was about to end. The top management, except Minato, seemed to be a drag.
"I'm about to get the sealed book from Danzo. What are your plans?"
"It's nothing. Just write down the ninjutsu and forbidden techniques you are interested in. I really can't practice them without chakra."
"Yeah, I forgot about it."
…
Another test from Orochimaru, working with smart people is trouble.
He had always suspected that Noah's body had recovered to the point where he could practice chakra, and hoped to confirm this.
It was mainly the resistance and dislike of the power of chakra that aroused the snake's suspicion. The suspicious BOSS template was really suitable for Uncle Snake.
If there were no soul problems in the original work, he would have ended it long ago.
After driving away Orochimaru's clone, Noah fell asleep peacefully.
Chapter 27 Political Means of the Third Generation
Now is really not the time to wander around, unless you are a daring lunatic who is a master of arts.
For example, Obito.
He stood in front of Lin's commemorative monument in the night, his red Sharingan trembling slightly as he looked at the photo.
"Konoha is in ruins after all, without its former prosperity."
"The world has been like a cemetery since you left."
"Those people in the Akatsuki organization are trash. They spend their days dreaming in the Land of Rain. Land? Daimyo? How can such a thing cause changes in the burning world?"
"Uchiha Madara, a strong man who has dominated the world for many years, is finally old and would believe such ridiculous things."
"After learning that the Fourth Hokage was going to be born in Konoha Village, they came over to watch the ceremony submissively. They are a group of spineless people."
"After I finish solving the problems in Konoha, I will subdue those people, and then collect the tailed beasts together. This way I can see you sooner."
"I just went to see Kakashi. The poor guy was as immersed in the mission as before."
"In order to resurrect you, I didn't want to cause any complications, so I let the liar go after all."
"Originally, I wanted to take revenge on Konoha in three days and make the Yondaime's succession ceremony a joke."
"But from the roots, I found a better way of revenge, a way that makes Konoha and Namikaze Minato regret."
"Lin, the next time I come to see you will be when Konoha is destroyed."
I don’t know what kind of information Obito gained in the past few days in Konoha that made him so confident, and Black Zetsu breathed a sigh of relief after Obito left.
The strategy he racked his brains to come up with was not in vain, and he was also grateful to the veteran Genbu for the countermeasure plan.
This group of people are so mean to attack their own people. Even Mrs. Hokage is plotting against them, tsk tsk tsk...
As for Noah...it seems that he came here to sell books under the pseudonym Adam.
It doesn't matter what that monster wants to do, as long as it doesn't involve Obito.
As time goes by, we don’t know how many conspiracies were born, and we don’t know how many conspiracies went bankrupt.
These two nights were extremely lively, and the Anbu had indeed gained a lot.
These were suppressed by Konoha who was prepared, which was why Noah was unwilling to go out at this time.
Who knows what black technology or unknown blood inheritance limit has suddenly exploded in this village.
The day before the takeover ceremony, Uchiha Fugaku left early to perform his mission.
"Itachi, protect mom. You are already a mature ninja."
"Yes, Father."
Seeing Itachi's calm response like a little adult, Fugaku felt sincerely happy.
Even though he is a chauvinist, he is really lucky to get Mikoto.
Having given birth to such an outstanding offspring, Itachi is simply a genius among geniuses, and his talent is not inferior to that of Shisui.
And his wife also has a very good relationship with Namikaze Minato...his wife, allowing the Uchiha clan to smoothly begin to integrate into the village.
