It took the four of them two days to reach the agreed town.
They weren't in a hurry, after all, it's normal for a ninja to leave the village for more than a week.
Although Kei Uchiha and the other two have important positions, it's definitely not a good thing for them to leave the village for too long.
Especially at this moment, Wood Leaf is negotiating with Kumo, and the whole Shinobi continent seems to be affected by this negotiation, causing a lot of chain reactions.
But such a problem doesn't need them to worry about it, after all, Wood Leaf still has Po Shui Mun, the Hokage, and Nara Shikaku, the Head of the Administration Department.
As long as the three of them don't stay outside for too long, basically there won't be too many problems.
The three of them are obviously aware of this, that's why their performance is so unhurried.
Especially this time, they have a lot of other ideas, even Kakashi is the same.
After meeting Uchiha Forest, Kakashi was really surprised to find that he gets along very well with this guy.
Although their views on many things are not the same, the tacit understanding between them seems to be innate.
He really had the feeling that he was getting along with the Obito Tribe.
It's true that the position of Kei Uchiha in his heart is comparable to or even surpassing that of Obito, but this surpassing is more of a kind of respect.
Kuroto has always regarded Uchiha Kido as his Sensei, the one who guided him from going astray in life, the one who led him from the darkness to the light.
Such a person is his best friend, a person he admires from the bottom of his heart, but it's difficult for him to put himself and Kei Uchiha on the same level.
Although there is no problem in getting along with Uchiha Keisuke, Kuroto still unconsciously puts Uchiha Keisuke in a higher position in his heart.
But when he is with Uchiha Forest, he doesn't have such a feeling, instead, he feels a sense of intimacy that seems to come from blood.
"It seems that this should be the place."
Keiko Uchiha had no idea what was going through Kakashi's mind.
After entering the town, he observed the environment and concluded that this was the place they were looking for.
It has to be said that the situation here seems to be a bit chaotic, because when they entered the town, they found that there are a lot of ninjas here.
If it was a normal registered Wood Leaf Ninja, it would be fine, but the Ninja composition in this town is very complicated.
In addition to the forehead protector that can be used to determine which village the ninja is from, there are also various wandering samurai and ninjas that are completely impossible to determine.
There are ninjas attached to the Shinobi village, and they may have come here to perform a task.
As for those wandering samurai and ninjas, they would not be so simple here.
For these lone wolves without any faction to rely on, there weren't many ways for them to earn money.
The most suitable mission for them was probably the most dangerous bounty mission.
Wandering samurai and ninjas, to put it nicely, were lone wolves who disdained to join a ninja village.
But to put it bluntly, they are simply some traitors or people who are not strong enough and are not valued at all.
Of course, there are also many powerful guys among such people, but those guys are basically nailed in the ninja village's combat manual.
So no matter which category they belong to, the things they can do can only be the most dangerous ones, they are the real desperados.
"It's in line with Orochimaru's choice." Kenta Imai said softly, "It's chaotic, and there are many different kinds of people. This kind of place is really suitable for hiding. At the same time, it's also suitable for gathering information."
"Indeed." Kei Uchiha walked and suddenly stopped, looked at a strange building on the side and touched his chin: "It seems that I'm almost seventeen."
"No way?" Kenta Imai looked at him with an incredible look: "You don't want to play here, do you?"
"Is it too much to take a hot spring bath?" Kei Uchiha turned to look at Kenta Imai: "I told you to go to a custom shop, can't you take a hot spring bath?"
"Do you think I will believe your nonsense? Of course, as long as Ling trusts you, it won't be a problem.
"Please, she didn't follow me, not to mention that the first time I went to a hot spring bath, it was you who took me there."
Kenta Imai rolled his eyes when he heard Kuroto's words. The last time he took Uchiha Keisuke to a hot spring bath, it was at a regular hot spring house in Konoha.
What kind of place was this house in front of him?
This is a custom shop!
I'm afraid that few people with a normal brain don't know what kind of business they are doing here.
Of course, there are hot springs here, and they can even provide quite good accommodation.
But this can't change the nature of this place, right?
Kei Uchiha actually wants to come here to play?
This is something that Kenta Imai didn't expect. Although, he had a general feeling that this is Kei Uchiha's joke.
However, when he thought about how Aya Hyuga didn't follow him and Kei Uchiha said such words, it seems this guy is not being honest.
But soon, Kenta Imai touched his chin.
For a guy like Kei Uchiha to say such words, is it because Aya Hyuga is too strict?
Thinking about it, that woman is not only crazy, she is also abnormally dangerous.
Interacting with this kind of person, it is normal that she can't stand it.
Thinking of this, Kenta Imai suddenly put on an "I sympathize with you" look and patted Kei Uchiha's shoulder.
The speed and attitude of Kuroto's change in attitude directly stunned Uchiha Kei who was just joking, he couldn't react for a while and couldn't understand what was going on.
"Honestly, I sympathize with you." Kenta Imai's voice was slightly low. "Don't worry, I will keep it a secret for you. As long as you treat …"
"Go to hell." Kei Uchiha slapped away this guy's arm. "Let's not talk about what you are sympathizing with. Also, I can treat you to a meal. Anything else, you pay for it yourself."
After saying that, Kei Uchiha walked forward without looking back. But a moment later, he felt that something was wrong.
When did I say I want to go to this kind of place to play?
He was just teasing Kenta Imai. At the same time, he was recalling the feeling of going to a hot spring for the first time since he came to this world.
But now, this bastard Kenta Imai is talking nonsense, making it seem like he wants to go play.
"This damned guy."
Kei Uchiha shook his head. However, a joke was a joke. Once it was over, it was over.
Glancing at a tavern before him, Kei Uchiha's expression turned serious. That tavern was the place where they would meet up with Orochimaru …
…
After entering the tavern, Kei Uchiha's brows furrowed slightly.
The tavern appeared very dim. In broad daylight, there was even a need for the lights to be turned on.
Additionally, the tavern was filled with people. All of them appeared very vigilant. They were wary of strangers coming in.
He couldn't identify these fellows at all. He didn't even know where they were from.
Kei Uchiha glanced at them and walked inside.
They had long since removed their Wood Leaf insignia. Even Uchiha Obsidian had changed his green vest.
Among the four of them, there was still a possibility that three of them would be recognized.
However, now that they had taken off their insignia, it didn't matter if they recognized them or not.
Besides, they had no intention of hiding their identities.
Simply put, as long as they were careful, they wouldn't care about these wandering ninjas or any other traitorous ninjas.
As long as they were on guard against poisoning, no matter how hard these traitorous ninjas fought, they wouldn't be able to do anything to them.
Additionally, there was another purpose for removing the Wood Leaf insignia. It was to send a message – they were not here to capture or kill people.
They walked all the way to the innermost part of the tavern. Orochimaru's reserved spot was a single room similar to a private room.
The soundproofing of such a single room was actually very average.
When they passed by a single room, they could hear wanton laughter coming from inside, as well as the moaning of some girls.
"A place like this is really interesting." Kenta Imai suddenly laughed. "These unrestrained fellows aren't afraid of being targeted by their enemies and dying here."
"I'm afraid these desperados didn't even think about that day." Uchiha Obsidian suddenly said. "Moreover, the truly powerful guys won't be unrestrained, so I'm afraid this kind of person won't be a powerful guy."
"That's true." Kakashi nodded: "But it's not accurate, after all, Konoha has a Ninja with a unique personality but he's extremely powerful."
"People can't be lumped together," Ye Zichen said. Kei Uchiha directly took over the topic. "Think about it, how powerful the previous Hokage was, but look at the guy who inherited the current Senju clan."
"Hey? What do you mean by that? "
"Nothing, just to make a comparison, I didn't mention any names."
Kei Uchiha joked a little and ignored Kenta Imai's unhappy face. He stopped directly at the door of a small room.
He gently knocked on the door, and then he didn't wait for any response from the person inside and directly opened the wooden door.
This room is not big, but there is no problem for five or six people to sit in it.
And there is already a person sitting in this room. Kakashi and Uchiha Obsidian couldn't help but widen their eyes slightly when they saw this person.
Because this guy doesn't have the slightest disguise at all. He is Orochimaru!
The person Kei Uchiha wants to see is Orochimaru?
This guy is the most wanted man in Wood Leaf. Why does Kei Uchiha want to see this person?
Suddenly Kakashi seems to understand something, but he is not so sure about many things.
He feels that it's better for him to watch quietly and see what Kei Uchiha and Orochimaru are going to talk about.
After all, his teacher sent him to follow Kei Uchiha, there is definitely a meaning.
"It doesn't seem good for you to swagger like this, Lord Orochimaru." Kei Uchiha directly sat down and then slightly sighed. "You should know, we are now in a cat and mouse relationship. You will make it very difficult for me by doing this."
"Is it really just a cat and mouse relationship, Minister Qi?" Orochimaru seems to be completely unconcerned about Kei Uchiha's words. His gaze swept across everyone present, and then he hoarsely laughed.
"Three ministers and a mysterious guy. I am afraid that now I am not a mouse, but a knife in your hands, right?"
Kei Uchiha chuckled, then picked up the teacup in his hand and gently took a sip.
Even though Orochimaru has been away for so long, his vision and vision are not the slightest bit affected. On the contrary, it has become even sharper.
Just by looking at these people in front of him, he instantly guessed their identity.
He instantly guessed Kei Uchiha's intention, or rather, Po Shui Mun's intention.
However, he did not have the slightest intention of objecting. Of course, he also did not show any intention of agreeing.
Wanting him, Orochimaru, to be the knife, this is not a big deal.
The key is, what can Wood Leaf give him, what can he give him?
These are the most important!
Orochimaru is a very practical person, and he doesn't have the slightest interest in such things.
If Wood Leaf can give him what he wants, he will be very happy to be the knife that Wood Leaf is.
Kakashi sat at the side listening to these two people's conversation. At this moment, he clearly understood the reason why his teacher called him over.
As expected, it was just as he thought. At this moment, Kakashi also understood what he should do in the future.
In fact, think back to the time when Kei Uchiha raided Orochimaru's base.
It seems that Orochimaru deliberately left something behind, which allowed his teacher to smoothly get back a lot of power.
Moreover, after Wood Leaf announced that Orochimaru is a traitorous ninja, it seems that from the beginning to the end, only Jiraiya was chasing Orochimaru, right?
This has already explained a lot of problems.
Only the masked man tilted his head, as if this matter has nothing to do with him, but he is thinking about something else.
"How to understand it is Lord Orochimaru's own business, I just don't want to expose something that shouldn't be exposed."
Kei Uchiha calmly looked at Orochimaru, then he took out a piece of paper from the empty bag and handed it over.
"I think Orochimaru-Sama knows what to do, right?"
"Of course, don't worry, no one can know who I am when I come in, except for some people."
Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth with his tongue, he took the note and looked at it: "It seems that Minister Qi's ambition is really big this time."
"In short, there is what I need, what Wood Leaf needs, and what Hokage-Sama needs." Kei Uchiha's voice was still calm.
"In addition to normal protection, we can also give you some resources, but whether these resources are in line with the interests of Wood Leaf, it depends on Lord Orochimaru."
"This is getting interesting." Orochimaru carefully looked at the paper for a long time, then nodded and put it away.
"I'll sort out what I want and tell you, tonight. But before that, I need you to help me solve some problems. "
Solve some problems?
Uchiha Kai was stunned for a moment, but at this moment, the door of the private room they were in was opened …
