Chapter 57 Orochimaru
Chapter 57 Orochimaru
Uchiha clan.
The training ground was bustling with activity.
After Sasuke stopped going to school, Chiyo also started exploiting the clan's territory.
Within the Uchiha clan, those with higher strength are generally more arrogant.
Chiyo is one of the known Mangekyou Sharingan users. He can look people in the eye and is willing to guide his clan.
almost none.
There used to be a manga artist named Shisui, but Shisui never revealed his kaleidoscope-like abilities, and most people were unaware of it.
It must be said that although most members of the Uchiha clan are short-tempered and impulsive, they are all very straightforward.
Seeing that Qianyao was such a powerful person, he still liked to guide his clansmen.
Everyone's goodwill towards Qianyao increased significantly.
This results in most of the opponents of Qianyao having at least a one-star bond level.
One-star bonds grant the user combat experience from the opponent, along with observational abilities at the level of a kaleidoscope.
They can also observe the opponent's weaknesses and areas that need improvement within just a few moves.
Qianyao also patiently guided everyone until they reached a two-star bond level.
This caused Qianyao's reputation to soar.
Fugaku and Shiko both came to the training ground, but they both came and left quietly.
It's not easy for the clan to have such a strong person who is willing to get along with the clan members.
Even Fugaku or Shitora rarely gave guidance to others.
They also highly approve of Qianyao's approach.
Qianyao is unlike his peers at all; he is not only highly skilled but also exceptionally intelligent and has a calm and composed temperament.
If the timing weren't so bad, Fugaku would want to hand over the throne to Senyo right now.
Qianyao regained his senses and opened his eyes.
The people Itachi took with him are no longer doing things like bounty hunting.
Aside from the few who brought Karin and her daughter back, the others went to the Land of Wind.
To be precise, they swaggered past right under the noses of Konoha's watchtowers.
Itachi, on the other hand, went to enter the Land of Earth via the Shikoku Route.
The Shikoku-do (Four Country Roads) is the border between the Land of Fire, the Land of Grass, the Land of Waterfalls, and the Land of Earth.
These places all have Konoha sentry towers.
The purpose was to create a diversion, to make the Third Hokage believe that the Uchiha might be trying to collude with other ninja villages.
In reality, the Uchiha clan members had other destinations and had no contact with people from other ninja villages.
Qianyao did this only incidentally, it didn't take much effort anyway.
According to his estimation, the Third Hokage and his men had all arrived, and people from other factions should also arrive in the next couple of days.
……
The Uchiha clan originally lived on the outskirts of Konoha.
Logically, the patrol range of the patrol teams outside Konoha should include the Uchiha clan's territory.
However, they all avoided the patrol routes.
The goal is simple: for others who want to enter Konoha, entering through the Uchiha clan is the easiest way.
But most bounty hunters aren't stupid, and few of them would pass through the Uchiha territory.
After all, every Uchiha who has awakened their Sharingan is no pushover.
Moreover, this bounty mission was issued by the Uchiha clan.
Even if no one patrols the forests surrounding the Uchiha clan's territory, no one can invade Konoha from this side.
But there are always exceptions, and there are always those who are highly skilled and daring.
On a tree outside the Uchiha clan's territory, stood a man and a woman.
The man had long black hair, long, golden pupils, purple eyeshadow that extended to his nose, pale skin, and blue comma-shaped earrings.
The woman had blue-gray hair, wore a red inner layer over a long green dress, and had a confident look on her face.
It was Orochimaru and Guren.
Orochimaru was recruited by the Akatsuki organization after founding the Sound Village during this period.
However, the conflict between Konoha and the Uchiha clan has now drawn the attention of the entire ninja world.
Orochimaru has not yet made contact with Pain.
What he's interested in now is the Mangekyou Sharingan.
Orochimaru had seen Itachi's suicidal training method a long time ago and became interested in the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan.
His spies in the village sent him news that the Uchiha had displayed three Mangekyou Sharingan at once.
While severely injuring Danzo, he confronted the Third Hokage head-on and broke with Konoha.
Since his defection, Orochimaru has gained considerable political wisdom.
He didn't know about other things, but the fact that Danzo's eyes could be gouged out meant that killing him would be very easy.
The Uchiha clan clearly spared Danzo's life, their purpose being to use it as a pretext to attack Konoha.
Therefore, he gained an absolute advantage in the confrontation with the Third Hokage, who had no choice but to back down.
As for the Uchiha's offering of a bounty on Danzo in the black market, the main point was to tell the outside world that the Uchiha had broken ties with Konoha, and that anyone who wanted to harm Konoha should hurry up and come.
After all, Konoha only has one Nine-Tails.
However, whether Konoha would dare to use the Mangekyou Sharingan when it's available is also a question.
The Uchiha clan directly turned the tables on Konoha.
The Third Hokage is having a very difficult time right now.
"Lord Orochimaru, shall we go and investigate the Uchiha clan?" Guren asked eagerly.
Orochimaru had just established the Sound Village and didn't have many skilled fighters around him.
To be precise, most of them haven't grown up yet.
Orochimaru originally planned to visit the Land of Water to see if there were any promising talents.
But since it was lively in Konoha, he changed his mind and came here.
Guren is quite strong, and Orochimaru took her with him.
Guren is skilled in Crystal Release and is a candidate for Orochimaru's reincarnation vessel. She is extremely loyal to Orochimaru and naturally wants to be the first to go.
Orochimaru may be very confident in himself, but he's no fool:
"Let's investigate first; there might be people who are even more anxious than us."
"Yes, Lord Orochimaru!"
Honglian took out a crystal ball from her person.
"The art of telescopes!"
Various images began to appear on the crystal ball.
Her technique is the same as the one the Third Hokage used to monitor Naruto.
However, Guren did not target any members of the Uchiha clan.
It's like starting to investigate the Uchiha clan from a high-altitude perspective.
This technique is extremely rare, making it highly difficult to detect.
In the original timeline, Guren used this technique to monitor Kakashi when he was at his peak, but Kakashi didn't even notice.
"Lord Orochimaru, although the defenses inside the Uchiha clan's territory have increased, the atmosphere is not tense."
Guren's gaze slowly swept over the Uchiha clan's territory as she reported to Orochimaru.
Orochimaru leaned against the tree, oblivious to what Guren was seeing.
Orochimaru had Guren use the binoculars to check if anyone could spot them.
Honglian's perspective quickly shifted to the training ground where there were the most people.
When she moved her gaze to Qianyao's face.
Qianyao immediately raised his head.
The enormous Sharingan was instantly reflected on the crystal ball.
The crystal ball cracked with a "crack".
"Lord Orochimaru, I've been discovered," Guren reported with some surprise.
Orochimaru chuckled lightly: "Let's leave first and go check out the situation in the village."
With that, he led Honglian away from the outer perimeter of the Uchiha clan.
When Chiyo arrived here based on the chakra reaction, Orochimaru had already left.
He came out to check because he sensed he was being watched, but the feeling of being locked on came from the sky.
There are many strange and unusual techniques in this world, and it's impossible for Qianyao to know them all.
However, anyone who dares to stay in this position is probably not a good person.
"Heh, interesting. Looks like Konoha's about to get lively."
