"Hahaha … There's no need to hide …"
Orochimaru noticed that Feng Ye lowered his head and seemed to want to hide his emotional fluctuations. He let out a hoarse laugh and said, "Whether it's your performance in the Chunin Exam or your forbearance, you can't hide your ambition. I was convinced when I saw you for the first time, but I don't know what your ambition is."
"So, can you tell me what you want?"
Hearing Orochimaru's words, Feng Ye looked a little panicked, but his heart was very calm, because he knew very well that Orochimaru was different from Danzo. Orochimaru's desire for control was far less strong than Danzo's, and he wouldn't mind if his disciples or subordinates were ambitious.
Even.
In Orochimaru's view, ambition is also a good quality, it means more faith, and more worthy of training.
Kaede's body shook slightly, and after hesitating for a few seconds, he took a deep breath and looked up at Orochimaru, his eyes flashing with light: "… What I want is power."
It's impossible to completely hide in front of Orochimaru, so Maples has thought about how to deal with this situation many times, and that is, not hiding his ambition.
There are different ways to deal with different people, and Maples even considered many ways to deal with the worst situation, when he was forced to join Root because of Danzo's plan.
"I think that father died because he was weak. If he was strong enough, he wouldn't have to give up the mission to save his companions, he would be able to do both!"
Maples' voice was louder, and he clenched his fists, as if he couldn't hold back his emotions.
Not all of it was a disguise.
These were indeed his inner thoughts. Not a single word was a lie, and no one could possibly see any flaws in it.
It's just that his goal is not only to surpass Konoha's White Fang, but also to reach the top of the Shinobi World, and stand at the top of the Rikudō!
"So that's how it is."
Orochimaru looked at Maples with a smile on his face.
Maples took a deep breath, as if he recovered from a temporary loss of control, and looked at Orochimaru with a slightly nervous expression.
"You're right."
Orochimaru interrupted Maples, his snake eyes stared at Maples, revealing a bewitching smile that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and said: "With enough strength, you can do anything, and you can deal with anything, no one would think that such ambition is wrong."
"Although you are still very weak now, as long as you follow behind me and keep moving forward, you will become stronger and stronger. You will inherit the name of White Fang and surpass it."
At this time, it was naturally the best to show some touched expression, but it was also easy to reveal flaws. After all, he had already deceived Orochimaru by revealing his true thoughts before, and if all his previous efforts were wasted here, it would be very troublesome.
Therefore, Maples revealed a confident expression and took a deep breath.
"Orochimaru-sensei …"
"Humph, humph, humph, you are very outstanding and very confident. I also believe that you can surpass your father."
Orochimaru showed a smile that was a little contradictory to his image, but it seemed to be a little bit sunny, and said, "Then continue to cultivate, if you have any questions, you can come to me again."
"Yes."
Maples responded respectfully and turned away.
After leaving Orochimaru's research base, Feng Ye maintained a calm expression, but in his heart, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Deliberately self-destructing in front of Orochimaru, showing his ambition to become stronger, he should be safe for a short time, and this kind of dangerous topic shouldn't come up again in the short term.
As for a long time …
There's no need to think about it.
Soon, there will be a world war, and after the war begins, everything will be centered around the war, and in this war that will last for several years, he will continue to improve his strength.
As long as he is strong enough, he can surpass Orochimaru, and even surpass the Third Hokage, no matter what kind of situation he is in, he can deal with it calmly.
"The next goal is to reach the Kage level!"
Maples's eyes flashed, and he whispered in his heart.
…
Time flies.
Another two months passed.
The Ninja Academy finally ushered in the graduation of this group of students, including Uchiha Zetsu and Gai, all of them passed the graduation exam.
At this time, in Maples's house, Kurenai was looking at the silver-haired boy sitting on the sofa in shock.
"One of the Sannin, Orochimaru sama, actually accepted Maples as his disciple?!"
In the graduation list of the Ninja Academy, she didn't see Maples' name, so she came to ask Maples, and as a result, she got the news that Maples was accepted by Orochimaru as his disciple.
"Yes."
"Orochimaru-Sensei doesn't seem to plan to lead a three-person team."
Maples nodded with a smile, he knew what Kurenai was thinking, it's nothing more than that, after he became Orochimaru's disciple, he won't be assigned to the same class.
In fact, Maples was a little bit disappointed at this point, in his original expectation, he would graduate normally, and be a very normal Konoha Genin.
Then he would happily and easily carry out the task of being a Genin, and by the way, improve his relationship with the girl in the three-person team, and experience the vitality and beauty of this age.
As a result, accidents happened frequently.
Now, the possibility of being assigned to a three-person team has disappeared.
After the shock, Kurenai was a little depressed: "Then there's no way to be in the same team as you, Maples …"
If it's any other situation, she can try to ask her father to change the class, but if it's Orochimaru, it's impossible to make any changes.
"Shizune was also accepted as a disciple by Tsunade-sama."
Rin stood on the side and said.
Maples said leisurely: "In this way, only Jiraiya -sama accepted a disciple."
Rin smiled cutely and said: "Jiraiya -sama didn't accept a disciple, but Jiraiya -sama's only disciple accepted a disciple, your brother Kakashi is one of them."
"Minato Jounin?"
Maples smiled softly and said: "Let me guess … One of the other two is you, and the last one is Uchiha Zetsu."
Rin looked at Maples in surprise and said: "Maples, have you seen the class list this time?"
"No."
Maples shook his head and said: "Kakashi told me."
"I don't remember saying it."
Kakashi, who had appeared in the living room, muttered, then sighed. "Why is it like this? One of them is at the bottom, and the other is a troublesome girl. This team will be more troublesome than before."
"…"
Rin showed a somewhat awkward smile after being mercilessly ridiculed by Kakashi.
Hearing Kakashi's words, Maples curled his lips, looked at Rin, and pointed at Kakashi with his thumb: "Did you hear that, Rin, he thinks you are troublesome, so you don't need to use medical ninjutsu on him, let him bandage himself."
"…"
Hearing Maples' words, Kakashi couldn't help but roll his eyes.
