August, the 45th year of Wood Leaf. This year was destined to not be a peaceful year. Peace was coming soon, and Wood Leaf, which had defeated the other four great villages, had reached an unprecedented peak in the Shinobi World.
Wood Leaf proved to the Shinobi World that even without the God of Shinobi, Wood Leaf was still the strongest.
Although there were still some small conflicts between the other villages, Wood Leaf had already struggled out of the quagmire of war.
As soon as the war ended, the number of missions for the village began to recover at a jaw-dropping speed. With the support of the huge number of missions, Wood Leaf's economy began to recover at the same speed. The streets of Wood Leaf had almost returned to the prosperity that Dynasty Choname remembered when he was a child.
Although Wood Leaf and Yunyin had stopped fighting, Yunyin didn't declare defeat, and there were still some conflicts between Wood Leaf and Yunyin. But with the death of the Third Raikage, Yunyin must immediately elect the Fourth Raikage to lead the village to continue its development.
The continuous war for several years has caused the major villages to suffer heavy losses. If the five great villages want to continue to maintain their transcendent status in the Shinobi World, a temporary truce is an inevitable choice.
Wood Leaf will also usher in a big happy event this year. The most popular hero of the younger generation, Po Shui Mun, will marry Uzumaki Kushina as his wife, and Po Shui Mun will also succeed the position of the Fourth Hokage.
Whether it is the marriage of Po Shui Mun and Uzumaki Kushina, or Po Shui Mun becoming the Fourth Hokage, it can be regarded as Wood Leaf's biggest happy event in recent years.
Wood Leaf, which had just escaped from the war, also needs such a happy event to let the villagers and ninjas come out of the sorrow of war.
Of course, the end of the war meant that Orochi Maru had returned.
Dynasty Choname didn't know what Orochi Maru was feeling at the moment. The position of Hokage was taken away by the younger generation, and his own teacher was also suspicious of him. Compared to these two matters, the betrayal of a business partner was not worth mentioning!
"Orochi Maru -sama, congratulations! For Wood Leaf to win the war, Orochi Maru -sama must be very happy! "Dynasty Choname said with a smile as he entered the private room of the teahouse.
"Haha! Congratulations to you too. You're in the top 1,000! To be able to make such a great contribution at such a young age, his future achievements will definitely be limitless! " Orochi Maru's hoarse voice was as calm as ever. He wasn't displeased by Dynasty Choname's sarcasm.
"I'm really sorry, Orochi Maru -sama! I asked you to wait for me here! "Dynasty Choname walked in front of Orochi Maru and said with some embarrassment.
"It doesn't matter, I'm just used to arriving early, that's all!" Orochimaru took a sip of the good tea in his cup and said with a light tone. Through the window, looking at the bustling crowd on the street downstairs, no one knew what he was thinking.
"Orochi Maru -sama!" Dynasty Choname said as he took out a scroll and handed it to Orochi Maru.
"What is this?" Orochi Maru wondered.
"This is the result of my research that took me nearly a year!" Dynasty Choname said.
"Haha! How thoughtful of you! "Orochi Maru said softly, then put the scroll in his arms without a care.
Just as Dynasty Choname didn't trust Orochi Maru, Orochi Maru also didn't trust Dynasty Choname. Even if the scroll that Dynasty Choname gave to Orochi Maru was real, Orochi Maru would still have doubts and wouldn't dare to believe it.
"You called me here just for this?" Orochi Maru said calmly.
"Of course not, this research result is my explanation to Orochi Maru -sama!" Dynasty Choname said.
"Oh? Are you planning to leave me? "Orochi Maru's hoarse voice revealed a trace of sharpness.
"I am indeed planning to do so, because Orochi Maru -sama, you can no longer give me any benefits." After a pause, Dynasty Choname continued: "But this research is, after all, a task that you gave me when I was still working for Orochi Maru -sama, so I should give you an explanation!"
"Do you think that your wings have hardened?" Orochi Maru said coldly: "I would like to know where your confidence comes from."
"I advise you not to do this!" Dynasty Choname said with a smile: "Although I will no longer follow you as a subordinate, we can change from a superior and subordinate relationship to a cooperative relationship!"
"Cooperation? Haha! Hahahaha! " Orochi Maru first chuckled, then began to laugh wildly: "You, what qualifications do you have to cooperate with me?"
"Maybe not now, but it doesn't mean that there won't be a chance in the future!" Dynasty Choname said.
"Are you saying that because you want me to spare your life?" Orochimaru said gloomily.
"You can think of it that way!" Dynasty Choname looked directly into Orochi Maru's eyes and said with some provocation.
"After all, you and I are not the same kind of people, I thought that you would continue to endure for a while!" Orochi Maru suddenly withdrew all of his aura and said calmly.
Yes! If you were not about to defect, I would have continued to follow you for a while.
"There are no two people who are exactly the same in this world, even if you and I have similar interests, we are still two different people!" Dynasty Choname said.
"I am curious, what is your dream?" Orochi Maru asked.
"In the beginning, I just wanted to live a good life and become a strong person. But now, I want to pursue the origin of Chakra and understand the mystery of Chakra! "Dynasty Choname finished and asked:" Then what about Orochi Maru -sama's dream? I am also very curious! "
"My dream … is to learn all of Ninjutsu and master the truth of the world." Orochi Maru said with a trace of yearning.
"Very great dream!" Dynasty Choname said.
"I hope you can realize your dream!" Orochi Maru finished his last sentence and got up and left the room.
"Orochi Maru -sama, take care! I also hope that Orochi Maru -sama can realize his dream. "Dynasty Choname said respectfully.
There was indeed no need to continue the conversation, since Dynasty Choname was determined to break with Orochi Maru, Orochi Maru could either generously admit all of this, or kill Dynasty Choname with absolute strength.
But Dynasty Choname, who learned the Flying Thunder God Jutsu, was no longer a weakling that Orochi Maru could casually kill. If it was the original Dynasty Choname, Orochi Maru would never let go of Dynasty Choname so easily.
Of course, if Dynasty Choname's strength was still the same as before, Dynasty Choname wouldn't dare to betray Orochi Maru.
Since he couldn't easily kill Dynasty Choname, Orochi Maru would certainly retain his tolerance and agree with Dynasty Choname's decision.
This was the benefit of strength, even a Kage level expert like Orochi Maru couldn't do anything to Dynasty Choname.
