Chapter 156 You Have Always Been My Most Trusted Disciple
Orochimaru was not in a hurry to find Tenzo.
Because there are other matters to deal with.
Soon, an ANBU ninja sent the latest information:
"Lord Hokage! Information has just been received that the messenger sent to [Fire Country] to invite the Daimyo has been killed!"
Orochimaru was not surprised after hearing this, but chuckled and said:
"Did that old guy Danzo really hide a group of diehards?"
"Have no respect for the daimyo? It's like his behavior, but I'm pretty much the same..."
At this time, the only one who had the motive to kill the messenger was Danzo.
And this does seem to be Danzo's style of conduct.
Although most of the root ninjas have been exposed and closely monitored by the Anbu.
However, after many years of hard work, Danzo will inevitably hide a group of dead ninjas. This is almost foreseeable.
It is probably one of the few trump cards that Danzo currently holds.
"Hokage-sama, do you want that?..."
"Don't worry about it."
Orochimaru waved his hand and refused, not preparing to attack Danzo through this matter.
First: There is no evidence that Danzo did it.
Besides, killing a messenger won't change anything. A delay of a few days at most would not be able to hinder Orochimaru's rise to power.
Secondly: It is difficult to completely defeat Danzo with this method.
That's right, what Orochimaru wants is to completely defeat Danzo, or even kill him!
He was not Sarutobi, and he would never leave an uncontrolled thorn stuck in his throat.
Eliminating all threats and fully controlling Konoha is Orochimaru's goal!
In this regard, he already thought about how to deal with Danzo's cancer.
"Go get Anko."
"yes!"
…
A few minutes later, a certain 'sweet potato' quietly opened the door to the Hokage's office and walked in.
"Teacher? Are you looking for me?"
Anko looked around the room and found that Teacher Orochimaru was the only one there, and couldn't help but feel a little timid.
Her character is indeed bold and impulsive, and a bit naive.
But not stupid.
Not even the stupid girl who admired Orochimaru endlessly many years ago.
She knew very well that Teacher Orochimaru should still have some feelings for her, but probably not much.
In the eyes of teachers, there is nothing more important than realizing your long-cherished wish, climbing to the top of science, and exploring the mysteries of life.
Therefore, in front of outsiders.
She can indeed act coquettishly and exaggerate on purpose, just like she did when she hugged Aunt Snake's thigh last time.
Orochimaru-sensei also doesn’t mind showing off the ‘deep love between master and disciple’.
But in a private meeting alone, Orochimaru-sensei might not be so easy to talk to, and he might eat himself if he's not careful!
This made Anko become slightly nervous and huddled up into a ball, like a trembling groundhog.
Aunt Snake looked at Hongdou, her only disciple now, with a bright and kind smile on her face, and said quickly:
"Anko! Come here quickly, I'm looking for you."
"Teacher, what can you do?"
Anko's scalp went numb, there was something wrong with such a brilliant teacher Orochimaru!
But she didn't dare to refute, so she could only lean towards Aunt Snake timidly.
"Bang——!"
The door behind Anko suddenly closed.
At the same time, Orochimaru also opened a layer of barrier, sealing off the entire Hokage's office, cutting off internal and external communication.
Hongdou was startled, and all kinds of tragedies suddenly appeared in his mind.
I almost thought the teacher was going to do something to me.
So he immediately knelt down with a plop and deliberately begged for mercy:
"Teacher, I was wrong! I was so wrong!"
"Where did you go wrong?"
"I, I shouldn't...shouldn't take action against you, shouldn't misunderstand you, shouldn't..."
Anko was furious and stammered in defense.
The teacher is now the Hokage!
Even if he ate her, no one would hold her accountable! She can't even think about it!
Orochimaru stopped smiling, stopped teasing Anko, and started talking about business:
"Okay, get up. I have business with you."
"ah?"
Seeing the teacher return to his original appearance, Anko immediately felt relieved.
He climbed up in an instant and moved respectfully to Orochimaru's side, ready to obey orders.
"Teacher, please give me instructions!"
"I'm going to take Sasuke as my apprentice..."
"Is that so?"
Anko's expression darkened. She knew from the previous Chunin Exam that the teacher valued the child particularly, and even did not hesitate to show up.
It is natural that he would want to accept the other party as his disciple now.
Compared with the Uchiha orphan, his own talent indeed seemed too mediocre.
Soon, he was no longer the teacher's only disciple.
Thinking of this, Hongdou couldn't help but feel a little depressed and a little bit jealous.
"What do you think?"
"Me? Congratulations to the teacher for recruiting a genius. That kid is indeed much better than me."
"Aren't you jealous?"
"Don't dare, don't dare..."
"Hahaha!" Orochimaru laughed loudly.
She has set up a barrier so that the ANBU outside cannot know the master-disciple conversation in the office.
Then Orochimaru's expression suddenly became indifferent, as if he was spitting out snake apricots and said quietly:
"Don't worry. I accepted that guy as my disciple just to take his body."
"ah?"
"You should know about the [Undead Reincarnation] I'm researching, right?"
"Know..."
"In that case, you should know that I need to change containers every once in a while."
"So that child is your chosen vessel?"
Hongdou was shocked. But she didn't know that she was also one of Aunt Snake's backup resurrection props.
"That's right."
"How long will it take?"
"Well... within a year. I have used this body for several years, and it's time to change it."
"Teacher, this is not good, right? You are now a Hokage..."
Hongdou hesitated and reminded, feeling that it was still a bit too evil to take over the body like this.
"Don't worry. When I get the Uchiha blood limit, the whole world will no longer be able to restrain me. I will become the greatest Hokage in history and bring unprecedented glory to the village!"
"But, what if it is discovered..."
"It won't be discovered, everything will be done in secret!"
Hongdou bit her lip, struggling and tangled in her heart.
"Hongdou, although you are average in talent and lack many characteristics. But you have always been my most trusted disciple!"
"Huh?"
"I only told you about this."
Hongdou was a little confused. Is it really like this?
Why did the teacher tell me these absolute secrets?
It turns out that I have always been the teacher's most trusted disciple? ! !
That's right, it must be like this!
Hongdou was defeated in her crazy self-imagination.
After all, no one in Konoha can stop Orochimaru, the Hokage, right?
Besides, as a disciple, she can only obey...
"Teacher, what do you want me to do?" Hongdou said with a determined look.
Orochimaru raised his mouth. This girl is still as easy to deceive as always!
But it's just right to use her and set up this game.
As your own disciple, you should always take some risks.
"You don't need to do too much. After I accept Sasuke as my apprentice, you, as my senior sister, just keep an eye on him and pay attention to him for me."
"So simple?"
"Yes!"
"Okay, teacher, don't worry, I promise to complete the task!"
Mitarashi Hongdou patted her chest and promised confidently.
Although Sasuke is a genius, he is young after all. He is only over 13 years old and not even a Chunin.
As a special jonin, Hongdou still has the confidence to control such a young junior.
"Teacher, shall I go now?"
Orochimaru nodded:
"Let's go, come with me to the hospital to see your future junior!"
"Maybe, it won't be long before you call that junior teacher. How about it, isn't it wonderful?"
"Hahaha..."
Hongdou's scalp tingled, and she was even more horrified when she thought of the scene in the future where she might call Sasuke "Teacher Orochimaru".
But what can she do now?
She can only obey the teacher's orders and go all the way to the end.
