"Tokubetsu Jonin?"
Hyōjin gently shook his head.
In the original story, Kimimaro, who was already terminally ill and could only rely on medicine to barely maintain his life, almost killed Gaara who was about to take over the position of the Fifth Kazekage.
Even if his combat power wasn't at the level of a Kage, he was at least at the level of an elite Jonin.
Looking at the time, Kimimaro, who was still more than a year away from dying, should be at the peak of his power. With the Curse of the Earth activated, he should be able to reach the Kage rank if he didn't care about his life and death.
Jiraiya frowned, "This Chunin Exam doesn't seem to be very optimistic!"
Tsunade also nodded.
She was very confident in the Genin of the village, but the other villages obviously broke the bottom line and sent people who had obviously reached the level of a Jonin or even a Kage to participate in the exam.
Compared with these monsters, the Genin of the village obviously couldn't compete.
Three Generations took a puff from his pipe and said, "It seems that we have to reformulate our strategy!"
Zhuan Xiao Chun immediately understood, "Well, there is also a competitive relationship between the other villages. A character like Rock Village Dedale should be the focus of attention of the other villages, so we can draw the contestants from the other villages to deal with the Rock Village team first."
Jiraiya hesitated for a moment and said, "But is this useful? Dedale has even grasped 'Dust Escape'. He might be able to sweep the entire battlefield by himself. "
Behind Naruto's desk, Hyōjin said, "He can't sweep!"
…
Sound Village.
While the Muye Clan was urgently discussing the Chunin Exam, Orochi Maru also summoned Kimimaro who was ready to lead the team.
Kimimaro bowed to Orochi Maru and said respectfully, "Orochi Maru -sama, do you have any other orders?"
Kimimaro was taller than before, but his face was pale and he coughed from time to time.
After looking at Kimimaro, Orochi Maru asked, "Do you know why I want you to participate in the Chunin Exam?"
Kimimaro shook his head.
Orochi Maru said, "Do you remember the Uchiha named Sasuke?"
"En!"
Kimimaro thought about it and nodded.
Orochi Maru's eyes narrowed, and with a slight murderous aura, he ordered: "This time when you go to Muye, you only have one task, that is to kill him in the Chunin Exam!"
Kimimaro was a little surprised, but he nodded without hesitation and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely kill him. Cough …"
As soon as he said that, Kimimaro coughed.
Seeing that Kimimaro was coughing painfully, Orochi Maru frowned and asked, "The new painkiller didn't work again?"
Kimimaro, who had finally calmed down, gasped and said, "Yes … yes."
After a moment of silence, Orochi Maru said lightly, "I will try to develop a stronger painkiller as soon as possible."
Kimimaro's expression was a little gloomy, "Sorry for troubling you!"
Orochi Maru waved his hand and said, "You can leave now!"
"Yes!"
Kimimaro immediately bowed and left.
After Kimimaro left, Orochi Maru was deep in thought.
Unlike Orochimaru, who was busy with the development of various Forbidden Techniques in the original world, and later had his hands sealed by the Zombie Demon Seal, Orochimaru has now shifted the direction of scientific research to human cloning and cell research.
Because of this, Orochi Maru's research on Kimimaro's condition was more in-depth than in the original world.
Through his research, he discovered that the key to Kimimaro's disease was his blood, and the source of the blood was the bone marrow, which was the Kaguya Clan's prided Blood Limit, the Corpse Bone Vein.
In addition, Lotus of the Mist Squad mentioned to Kimimaro before, which made Orochi Maru certain that this disease wasn't caused by Kimimaro alone, but a chronic disease that plagued the entire Kaguya Clan.
"Maybe if I can solve this disease, I can completely solve the secret of the Corpse Bone Vein!"
Thinking of this, a figure flashed in Orochi Maru's mind, it was Kamikaze of Amatsukami.
In the current shinobi world, there were only three people who had mastered the Corpse Bone Vein. Besides Kimimaro and Lotus, the third person was Kamikaze of Amatsukami.
In terms of the power of the Corpse Bone Vein, Kamikaze of Amatsukami was obviously stronger than Kimimaro and Lotus.
According to the rumors, in the battle where Muye destroyed the village, Kamikaze of Amatsukami easily cut open the Susanoo of the mysterious Uchiha of the Akatsuki.
The indestructible Susanoo was cut open by a small bone blade. If it wasn't for the information he received from many sources, Orochi Maru wouldn't have believed it.
It was also this battle that made Orochi Maru realize that the upper limit of the Corpse Bone Vein was much higher than he thought.
That's why he was so concerned about Kimimaro's disease. He felt that as long as he could solve the cause of Kimimaro's disease, he could uncover the secret of the Corpse Bone Vein and obtain the Corpse Bone Vein that was as powerful as Kamikaze of Amatsukami.
"I'm really curious, how did Kamikaze solve the blood disease of the Corpse Bone Vein …"
…
In front of the gate of the Sound Village.
Jugo, Haku, Kidomaru, and Duo Yuya were already waiting there. When they saw Kimimaro coming, they immediately went to greet him.
Jugo asked, "Does Orochi Maru -sama have any orders?"
"Let's talk on the way!"
Before he finished speaking, Kimimaro's figure flashed and flew towards the direction of Muye.
The others didn't say anything else and followed him.
In the Sound Village, Orochi Maru's position was the highest. After him was the Research Faction led by Yakushi Dou and the other four people led by Kimimaro.
This time, because they were going to Konoha, it was inconvenient for Yamato who had the Wood Release, so only Kimimaro, Jugo, and Haku participated in the mission.
Jugo had the ability to communicate with birds and beasts, and he could sense Chakra from a distance. Besides his amazing combat power, he was also an excellent perception-type ninja.
Under Orochi Maru's guidance, Haku was getting stronger and stronger. Even if he fought against Kimimaro, he could still fight back and forth. Kimimaro could clearly feel that Haku, who was kind by nature, didn't use his full strength. So, let alone Kimimaro, even Haku himself didn't know how strong Haku was.
Plus, Haku had learned medical ninjutsu from Yakushi Dou, so he could play the role of a medical ninja.
As for Kidomaru, Duo Yuya, and the other three people, they were just small characters in Kimimaro's eyes. They were insignificant, so he didn't need to care about them.
