Chapter 667 Orochimaru's Excitement
Chapter 667 Orochimaru's Excitement
Upon hearing this, Yagura Karatachi frowned deeply and questioned him in a serious tone:
"Could it be that you intend to unify the ninja world?"
Faced with Yagura's sharp and direct questioning, Chiyo naturally understood what he was trying to say.
But instead of directly answering the question, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly, asking in a half-smile:
"So what do you think? Do you believe that the ordinary people of Kirigakure truly desire, deep down, a better life, or simply to retain the empty name of 'Kirigakure'?"
After a brief pause, Qianyao immediately posed another question:
"Or perhaps, in your opinion, is the quality of daily life of the people of the Land of Water really comparable to that of the Land of Fire?"
Back then, when Chiyo used Kotoamatsukami on Yagura, his purpose was merely to become Yagura's most trusted friend, not to establish a hierarchical relationship.
This is why, despite Yagura's unwavering faith in Chiyo.
But apart from that, his original way of thinking and values have not changed.
He possesses the ability to think independently, yet the topic he is discussing at this moment is indeed somewhat subtle and sensitive.
Even Yagura, the tachibana manga artist, couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Indeed, after years of unremitting efforts and development, the Land of Water has gradually recovered from its past predicament, and the situation has improved compared to the past.
However, if we compare it to the Land of Fire, which is currently at its peak and enjoying unparalleled popularity, the difference is not small.
In terms of both overall national strength and military power, the Land of Water is far inferior to the Land of Fire.
The living standards of the people in the two countries are worlds apart, like heaven and earth.
Although the tragedy of people starving to death has been largely eliminated in the Land of Water, people still live a very difficult and impoverished life.
In contrast, the Land of Fire had already successfully solved the problem of food and clothing, and its people no longer had to worry about their daily meals.
They even had the resources to consider purchasing appliances such as televisions and refrigerators, which were once only available in Konoha Village.
Nowadays, even ordinary families in the Land of Fire can afford such consumption expenditures.
Faced with such a huge disparity, Yagura was speechless for a moment.
Instead of demanding an immediate answer or decision from Yagura, Chiyo gently patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly:
"How to make a choice and decide is not something that can be decided by just one sentence from you, the Mizukage!"
Then he added words of comfort:
"Besides, it's a bit too early for you to think about these things right now, so there's no need to worry too much."
"Rest assured, given our friendship, I will absolutely not use any force to coerce or threaten your Land of Water."
Chiyo didn't actually intend to fool Yagura, because he was full of confidence in himself.
After conquering the other countries one by one, how could the people of the Land of Water not be tempted by the superior living environment of the Land of Fire?
Yagura himself also believes that it is too early to think about these things at this time.
"That's right, it's too early to consider those things right now."
Yagura nodded in agreement.
"I will let you know once I have finalized my plans."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qianyao, like ice and snow melting away, slowly sank into the shadow of Yagura, until he disappeared completely.
Meanwhile, Qianyao's true form had already finished lunch and was preparing to go out.
When he returned, Zhiyu's constantly tense heartstrings were finally able to relax.
After all, Qian Yao had been missing and his whereabouts unknown for some time, so Zhi Yu had to handle all the household affairs by herself.
Now that Qianyao has returned safely, she plans to take Liuli out for a trip to relax and unwind.
Qianyao then began to systematically organize the various pieces of information transmitted by the Hidden Mist clone.
Immediately afterwards, he activated Kagura's Mind's Eye and quickly pinpointed the exact locations of several people who wanted to meet with him.
In an instant, three more figures emerged from the shadow—the clones that Qianyao had created.
They used their Shadow Cloak technique to travel to the directions of Gaara, Karin, and Minato respectively.
Chiyo's true form sped toward Orochimaru's laboratory.
They soon arrived at Orochimaru's laboratory.
He was surprised to find that Orochimaru was resting.
It's worth noting that Orochimaru is usually engaged in various experiments and research at all times, so it's rare for him to have such a leisurely time.
"It's rare to see you take a day off."
Qianyao said with a smile.
Orochimaru heard the sound, slowly opened his eyes, and upon seeing Senyao, a hint of joy appeared on his face.
"How was your time travel? Did you gain anything special?"
Orochimaru asked curiously.
Qian Yao smiled slightly and replied:
"This time we obtained some important information that we didn't expect, which saved me a lot of time from painstakingly figuring things out."
"Oh?"
Orochimaru, intrigued by this, stuck out his long tongue and washed his face, seemingly deep in thought.
Since Qianyao said that this information was unexpected, it must be very valuable.
Immediately afterwards, Chiyo began to tell Orochimaru in detail about his experiences during time travel.
He mentioned how to cleverly use clones as spacetime beacons, and the original plan to forcibly take back the plow.
However, at this crucial moment, they encountered a powerful being from another dimension.
—Uchiha Natsuki.
"Your Uchiha clan has such a powerful member?"
Orochimaru's eyes were full of inquiry.
Qian Yao shook his head: "In this time and space, he is already dead."
"Moreover, even if he were to be resurrected, he could never become that kind of powerful being."
“The Uchiha Natsuki from another timeline and I are both special beings.”
Orochimaru gave Qianyao a deep look, but didn't ask any further questions.
After all, everyone has secrets, and Qianyao will tell him when he wants to.
"Go on," Orochimaru prompted.
Qianyao continued, "The closest Otsutsuki power to us is called the Divine Court Clan..."
"...above the Bloodline Link..."
Orochimaru's eyes grew brighter as he listened, blazing with intense light, and his whole body trembled slightly with extreme excitement.
"A divine court-style race? And a star godhood?"
"Hehehe... Interesting, this is really too interesting..."
His already hoarse and unpleasant voice sounded even more sinister and terrifying at this moment, and with bursts of maniacal laughter, he seemed to be immersed in a state of extreme pleasure.
