Chapter 241 Well done
"I am the Hokage now."
"Of course, Orochimaru. You are the Yondaime Hokage. I personally endorsed you and recommended you to the Daimyo."
Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of his cigarette and said bitterly.
"But human experiments always reveal an evil aura, Orochimaru, you..."
"Old man, I am the Hokage now."
"Hey! I know! Orochimaru! Are you listening to me?!"
Hiruzen choked violently, nearly breaking his pipe.
"Human experiments shouldn't be done by the Hokage. It goes against his will, even if you let your subordinates do it!"
Orochimaru turned around and looked at the stubborn old man Sarutobi Hiruzen. He originally thought highly of Hiruzen for choosing him to be the Hokage, but now, this old man was a bit annoying.
"Teacher, now, I am the Hokage."
Sarutobi Hiruzen choked and instantly lowered his head as if he had aged ten years.
But the anger in his heart did not subside like the one on his face, but instead rose sharply.
Damn, I’m so angry!
Hiruzen felt so frustrated.
He finally understood what Danzo had felt when he had mentioned these words to him one by one.
My old friend, how did you tolerate me for so many years?
"I know what you mean."
Orochimaru looked at the old man's aggrieved look and suddenly wanted to laugh, but he felt that it was not very moral.
Although old Hiruzen was hateful, he was still his teacher after all, and even if he was unwilling in his heart, he still chose him. Judging from his deeds rather than his heart, Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, supported the Fourth Hokage, which was the fundamental reason why Orochimaru was able to quickly take power.
None of the Ino-Shika-Cho families resisted Orochimaru's takeover. Hinata expressed her stance as soon as she came up, and the Uchiha clan did not riot. All the handovers were completed silently. If Hiruzen was unwilling, it would definitely not be so calm.
So Orochimaru softened his tone a little towards such a teacher.
"Teacher, human experiments cannot be left to subordinates. I must personally control it so that it stays on the path of justice."
Hiruzen raised his head and opened his mouth, but no words came out.
He understood what Orochimaru meant.
If this power is delegated arbitrarily, then once the subordinates choose to attack people in their own village in order to quickly complete the task of accumulating corpses, with Orochimaru in charge, this matter will definitely come to nothing.
Scandals that have already occurred will inevitably be covered up rather than exposed.
Therefore, Orochimaru had to take action personally to prevent this situation from happening. All measurement standards depended entirely on Orochimaru. In this way, the will of the Hokage was the will of the laboratory.
It's just Orochimaru...
Hiruzen looked at Orochimaru's gloomy face with difficulty and met his yellow pupils.
Cunning, evil, selfish, but there is also responsibility and persistence in those eyes.
Orochimaru has changed.
Hiruzen suddenly laughed.
He took two more puffs of his cigarette, puffing out smoke and hiding his smile in the smoke.
"Okay, Orochimaru, you have to know the limits."
Hiruzen turned and headed towards the lab's exit.
"We old guys will all be watching you. If you do well, we will be your last barrier and support. If you don't do well, even if I die, I will tear a piece of your flesh off and take it to my grave."
Tread-tap-
Hiruzen left with a lithe stride that was lighter than his age.
Orochimaru watched Hiruzen leave and shook his head.
Damn old man, you said something nice but still had to add a vague threat, as if you were afraid that I would get too proud of myself.
Orochimaru was quite disdainful of this abnormal way of education, at least that was not the way he educated Red Bean.
How could Orochimaru drift? He is the most stable one.
Say red beans and they will appear.
"teacher!"
Rushing out from a corner of the laboratory in a hurry, Hongdou looked quite evil with the curse seals shining with black and red light on her body.
But her cute little face doesn't give people any evil impression.
"I succeeded!!!"
"Oh? What worked?"
Orochimaru turned his head slightly and looked at Anko.
"The Dragon Fire Technique! The Dragon Fire Technique you've been asking me to practice!"
Anko said as she danced happily beside Orochimaru.
"I've achieved the effect you described! With the blessing of the Heavenly Curse Seal, the Dragon Fire Technique has finally broken through the power threshold and is now somewhat controllable! I just did it!"
Three years.
Orochimaru was calculating in his mind.
How long did it take Dongwan to fully master and improve the Dragon Fire Technique?
How long...
"Teacher? Teacher, are you listening?"
Anko waved her arms.
"Come on, Anko, go out to the clearing and let me see your progress."
"okay!"
Under Red Bean's excited pull, Orochimaru left the laboratory and came to an open space outside the village.
"Fire Escape! Dragon Fire Technique!"
Hongdou was full of vigor and the posture of releasing ninjutsu was no longer the crybaby and gullible little girl she used to be.
call--
Flames instantly expanded from Hongdou's fingertips.
A huge fire dragon swept out along with black smoke, like a giant dragon that had been trapped for years, raising its head and roaring, howling and breaking free from the cage!
The fire dragon circled and rushed forward quickly. With a diameter of ten meters, it burned a piece of black scorched earth across the entire open space and then disappeared from sight.
boom! ! !
The aftermath of the explosion came back, blowing Orochimaru's long hair slightly backwards.
Feeling the heat wave, Orochimaru raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Dongwan, are you back?
Not back?
It doesn't matter. The research on Impure World Reincarnation won't take long. I know where your body is buried in the mountain behind the memorial. When you come back and see Hongdou, will you be happy?
I have become the Hokage, the Fourth Hokage. Toumaru, you, a guy who has been recognized by me, how can you not see the majesty of the Fourth Hokage with your own eyes? You will be envious and jealous to death.
Hehehe......
"Teacher? Teacher, why are you in a daze again? Teacher, do you think my Dragon Fire Technique is working? Teacher!"
Anko waved her arms again, showing off her accomplishments in this now-obsolete jutsu.
She managed to develop a C-rank Fire Style Ninjutsu to a power above A-rank. Isn't that something to be proud of?
"Old... um..."
Hongdou was just getting excited when her body suddenly went limp and she fell to the side.
But Orochimaru, who seemed not to be looking at Anko, grabbed Anko's waist in time and picked her up.
Although the Heaven's Curse Seal is powerful, without sufficient mental strength to support it, the chakra is easily overloaded, especially the excitement just now, which directly made Hongdou faint.
Looking at Hongdou as the curse seal faded away.
Orochimaru said softly.
"Well done, Mitarai."
