The life of a villain starting from Naruto.

Chapter 97 Master and Disciple Trap
  "Lord Orochimaru... you must leave quickly! For your and Danzo-sama's safety!"

Konoha's main camp.

The root member codenamed [Badger] stared at Orochimaru. Even though he was wearing a rat-faced mask, he could feel his anxiety and anger:
  "The Third Hokage will be here at any time... No, at this time, maybe the execution team has already arrived at the door!"

"Yeah." Orochimaru responded calmly, without even raising his head.

"!" Badger gritted his teeth, but faced with Orochimaru who was far stronger than him, there was nothing he could do.

When the human experiment base was exposed, Danzo Shimura immediately sent badgers to the Konoha troops in Yuno Country to tell Orochimaru the news.

As an associate of Orochimaru, Danzo Shimura is most worried about being implicated. Following his orders, Badger has been persuading Orochimaru to defect immediately.

However, what Shimura Danzo and Badger didn't expect was that Orochimaru didn't run away after hearing the news.

Even now, the supreme commander of Konoha's eastern front, the old god was still reviewing a document. Badger could see clearly that it was the casualty report of the battle with Kirigakure three days ago.

It’s already this time... Why are you still pretending!
  The badger couldn't bear it anymore and took a step forward without even adding an honorific:

"Orochimaru, you..."

The golden snake eyes suddenly lit up, and more than a dozen gray-brown long snakes emerged from Orochimaru's sleeves, entangling the badger's body in just a moment. These snakes were as soft as ribbons when they attacked, but after being entangled, they were harder than steel. , even with the strength of the badger, he couldn't break free.

A small snake spit out a scarlet letter, hissed, and bit the badger's throat fiercely.

The venom was injected from the skin, and as the blood spread throughout the body, the badger felt that every inch of his muscles was sore and unbearable, unable to move.

"I only give you one chance to say the wrong thing."

Orochimaru still didn't raise his head. His voice was hoarse, like a slippery worm burrowing into the badger's ears, and a terrifying sense of oppression went straight to his brain.

The badger opened his mouth wide, holding back the pain, as if he wanted to say something.

But at this moment, a rhythmic knocking sound suddenly came from outside the house.

Both Orochimaru and Badger knew that this was a secret code belonging directly to the Third Hokage's subordinates!

"Lord Orochimaru." The voice from the ANBU outside the house came in:

"Hokage-sama is waiting for you outside the camp."

"Tell me the location and I'll go there."

"Yes."

The Hokage's warrant and the simple map he had just drawn were thrown into the room, and the ANBU said goodbye and left, never coming in from the beginning to the end.

Orochimaru put down his pen, put on his forehead protector, and walked straight out without even looking at the badger.

"Wait, wait!" The badger gasped, struggling under the torment of the neurotoxin and said:
  "Lord Orochimaru...are you going to die? You will drag Danzo-sama with you..."

Orochimaru hummed:
  "Your name is... badger, right?"

"Yes."

"Go back and tell our Lord Danzo..." Orochimaru grinned. Although he was smiling, he could not hide his sarcasm:
  "The so-called shadow is a ninja who dares to stand up and take on everything at any time."

……

Seeing Orochimaru walking slowly, Hinata Yuuto was a little dumbfounded.

No...you really have the guts to come here?

After such a long time, with Shimura Danzo's ability, I can give you the news of the mutation no matter what. The Third Hokage brought so many masters here and made it clear that they wanted to kill you. It can be said that the knife was put to the neck!
  However, when he saw Orochimaru's dress clearly, he suddenly understood something.

The eerily handsome man was wearing Konoha's characteristic Jōnin battle armor. His wrist armor and leggings were tightly fastened, and he wore a forehead protector engraved with Konoha's logo. He was still the attire of a frontline commander. ——Up to this moment, Orochimaru still regards himself as the frontline commander of Konoha.

Hinata Yuto knew that he was suffering from the "traveler's disease" again. He subconsciously believed that the description in the original work was 100% correct, and speculated on what was about to happen based on the character of the character at the beginning of the plot.

In fact, humans, as complex emotional animals, make different decisions in every situation.

From Orochimaru's current perspective, he is highly valued by his teacher. Not only does he teach ninjutsu and skills, but he is also entrusted with the important task of frontline commander. He is a strong contender for the position of the fourth generation Hokage, and even when the moon god invaded Konoha At that time, he had already established his identity as the next Hokage in public!

Thinking about it carefully, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Konoha did not feel sorry for him. On the contrary, they favored him a lot.

"Just wait where you are, Tsunade...come with me."

Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke softly, ignoring the dissuasion of his subordinates, and walked towards Orochimaru with Tsunade.

Hinata Yuuto saw that when the two sides were less than twenty meters away, his teacher suddenly stepped forward and punched Orochimaru in the abdomen. The strange force exploded and Orochimaru flew backwards a hundred meters away.

Woohoo... It would be nice if there were popcorn, Hinata Yuuto secretly thought it was a pity.

"Orochimaru...die!"

Tsunade's roar was deafening. She was much stronger than Hinata Yuuto, and she had practiced strange power and Yin seals for many years. She could crack the ground with just one move.

boom!boom!
  The two plumes of smoke dissipated, and Slugs and Ten Thousand Snakes appeared one after another. Tsunade and Orochimaru collided with each other, stirring up sand and dust that reached a height of 100 meters.

Hinata Yuuto quickly lost interest in the battle.

The blonde woman did not release the Seal of the Hundred Hao, and Orochimaru did not use various forbidden techniques. The battle between the two was very fierce, but it was not to the level of "I am going to kill you today."

Hyuga Yuuto suddenly realized that everyone had been deceived by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The purpose of this weathered Kage coming here may not be to capture or kill Orochimaru at all.

As long as Orochimaru walks out of the Konoha camp, doesn't defect immediately, and doesn't use Konoha's low-level ninja as a shield, it means that he still misses the old relationship, which means there is still talk.

Talk about...what?

Hinata Yuuto thought seriously.

It is simply impossible to pretend that nothing has happened.

After Orochimaru was exposed for stealing the body of the First Hokage and conducting human experiments, there was no place for him in Konoha.

But there are many ways to leave Konoha.

Leaving as a rebel ninja, you will face endless pursuit.

But if you make great achievements before leaving and are expelled from the Land of Fire, even though you will no longer be a Konoha ninja in the future, the pressure will be much less and you won't have to hide around.

Orochimaru's departure is destined. Losing a very prestigious and powerful fighting force will put a lot of pressure on Konoha, which is currently at war on four fronts. If it is not handled well, the balance of the war will tilt.

As the third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi must find a way to remedy this.

The Third Hokage [gives up the pursuit],
  Go and exchange Orochimaru [cooperate with Konoha to restore combat power]!
  This is the ultimate tacit understanding between master and disciple. When Orochimaru walked towards Sarutobi Hiruzen alone, he agreed to the teacher's arrangement.

To make up for the gap in combat power...Hyuuga Yuuto looked at the back of Sarutobi Hiruzen and inexplicably smelled the strong smell of blood.

As long as the enemy and we both lose the same level of combat power, wouldn't we be back on the same starting line?
  ……

Half a day later, an explosive news spread throughout the ninja world.

[Orochimaru defected and fought against the Third Hokage in the Country of Yu, causing both injuries. 】
