Chapter 156: Each One Has His Own Plan

"What's wrong Orochimaru?"

Orochimaru looked gloomy: "Did you ask Shisui to use another god on me?"

Xia Mu nodded and said naturally: "Yes."

Orochimaru laughed angrily at Natsuki's attitude: "You actually admitted it directly."

Xia Mu said helplessly: "It takes too long to gain your trust. I think it will waste a lot of time if we are wary of each other."

"Although I used other gods on you, I just skipped the process of establishing trust. After all, I have always regarded you as a collaborator these years."

Orochimaru's expression softened slightly: "Aren't you worried about me finding out?"

Natsuki walked up and hooked Orochimaru's shoulders: "There is a saying that no one is perfect in the world when it comes to his deeds but not his heart."

"Besides you, is there any other person in the world who can complete my projects? We are already pressed for time, so skipping the trust-building stage will save us time."

Orochimaru snorted coldly and shook off Natsuki's hand: "Then you can tell that the future is fake?"

Xia Mu shook his head: "This is true, otherwise why would I travel across mountains and rivers to find you for cooperation."

"I can't find another pure scientist like you in this world, and no one can compare with your scientific research ability."

Natsuki is not just blowing the rainbow fart, but he really thinks so.

Others compete for blood, father, and power.

Only Orochimaru relies on science.

Although Orochimaru is not the kind of person who gets happy when he is praised, he felt that Natsuki sincerely admired him.

The resentment in Orochimaru's heart dissipated, and Natsuki was still very discerning.

But if Orochimaru wants to forgive Natsuki so directly, it will be difficult for him to save face.

He said with a cold face: "What are you going to give me to explain this matter?"

"Ah, well..." Natsuki's eyes rolled around, and he could already see that Orochimaru no longer cared about other gods' affairs.

After all, the two sides have cooperated well over the years. The topics and research directions Natsuki brought were of Orochimaru's interest, and a lot of knowledge was revealed by Natsuki.

But the face has to go to Orochimaru.

"Let's do this first...and then let him be your subordinate, which will be considered an apology to you."

Natsuki told Orochimaru his thoughts.

Orochimaru's eyes flashed when he heard this: "Are you telling the truth!?"

Natsuki shrugged: "When would I make such a joke?"

"Is this also one of your abilities?"

Xia Mu said: "It can be used once. If you can reproduce it, that would be great."

Orochimaru has become accustomed to Natsuki's endless surprises.

I didn’t expect a bigger one today.

"Okay! I agree! If you can do it, then Shisui's use of other gods to me will be forgotten." Orochimaru said with a smile.

Xia Mu chuckled: "Don't worry, as long as you solve the problem I gave you last time, this matter will be completely fine."

"The old man has guessed that I have been raped by another god. How are you going to deal with it?" Orochimaru said.

Xia Mu touched his chin: "Although it's a bit sudden, it's over now, you can swing it."

"The third generation will still feel that the temptation of the position of Hokage is extremely huge."

Orochimaru chuckled upon hearing this, although being the Hokage of Konoha would indeed bring him a lot of conveniences.

But his ultimate goal is no longer something that the mere Hokage can satisfy.

"Obito recently attacked Uchiha and took back his Sharingan. Our pace will speed up in the future."

…

Hokage's office.

"Old man, since Orochimaru you are worried about is under control, why are you still contacting Orochimaru?"

Jiraiya didn't understand why the Third Hokage did this.

The third generation rolled his eyes at Jiraiya: "Do you want to stay in Konoha Village forever?"

Jiraiya smiled awkwardly, it was okay for a short time, but for a long time, he couldn't be suffocated to death.

Jiraiya's face was a little confused: "If Orochimaru falls to Uchiha, you will lose everything."

"Orochimaru is not that simple."

After the Third Hokage said this, Jiraiya's contact frog rang.

"Sandaime-sama, this is Orochimaru." Lia Frog said.

The third generation nodded and asked the other side to pick up.

"Old man, I accept your favor for this matter." Orochimaru's voice came, as if the matter had been investigated and dealt with.

"Orochimaru, what are you going to do?" Sandai asked tentatively.

A somewhat unclear voice came from Orochimaru: "Uchiha can still be used."

The first thing that comes to Sandai's mind is the benefits brought by Xiamu Catering.

The third generation turned away from these thoughts and asked: "Orochimaru, can you return to the village?"

Jiraiya rolled his eyes beside him, just wait, Orochimaru will laugh at you soon.

But the expected jeers didn't come.

Orochimaru was just silent for a moment, and then said: "It's impossible. Danzo gave me so many scapegoats at that time, and the villagers couldn't accept me. That's it..."

Then there was no sound.

The contact frog here said that the connection there has been disconnected.

Jiraiya spread his hands: "Old man, your wish has come true."

The Third Hokage's face was calm, not too frustrated, and he didn't seem to have any emotions because of Orochimaru's rejection.

Orochimaru is not a person who is willing to suffer a loss. I am afraid that Uchiha will be bitten off a piece of meat.

The third generation knows Orochimaru. Orochimaru is an extreme egoist.

As long as he can provide benefits for himself, he will not care who the partner is.

No matter if you are Danzo, Uchiha, or Konoha Village.

It is precisely because of Orochimaru's behavior without bottom line that Orochimaru cannot be controlled at all.

So the fourth generation Hokage gave it to Minato Namikaze.

The situation is different now. Uchiha is powerful. Konoha Village has no one to compete with the Mangekyō Sharingan except Jiraiya.

Danzo's ambition can no longer be contained. There must be other survivors of the experiment that year.

The prestige of the Hokage has been declining year by year in recent years. This time, Uchiha Xiamu took over as the head of the clan, which shows that his ambition is not small.

Even if he can survive the current hurdle, the situation in the future is not optimistic.

If Orochimaru can come back, Konoha can increase the capital to fight against Uchiha.

The Sound Village established by the Land of Rice has fully highlighted Orochimaru's ability.

Orochimaru was previously tricked by illusion, and this matter is not so easy to expose.

Taking a step back, even if Orochimaru and Uchiha have an ambiguous relationship.

If Orochimaru is willing to return to the village, Konoha Village can give everything that Uchiha can give, and Konoha Village can give more. Then there is no need to worry about Orochimaru's position.

The position, rights and interests of Konoha Hokage are not comparable to those of an Uchiha partner. How to choose does not seem to be a difficult problem.

The third generation is almost 70 years old, and his energy is not as good as before.

If a successor is not chosen now, will Konoha have to be named Uchiha?

As long as the Hokage does not fall on Uchiha, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, or even Tsunade, the third generation can accept whoever is the Hokage.
