Naruto: Dark Night Shura

Chapter 27

At this moment, Jiraiya felt like cursing.

You, the main family, didn't hide it. You deserved it if you were sent to the battlefield and used as a live target.

Now is not the time to worry about these things. The loss of the Byakugan is a loss for both Hyuga and Konoha.

"I will report this to the Third Hokage. Goodbye."

Jiraiya's face was gloomy. If he continued to track down the whereabouts of the Byakugan, it would naturally start a war again, and the most important thing was that Konoha needed to recuperate.

The Rock Village and the Sand Village have signed a peace treaty, which can at least maintain peace for a while.

"Old man, you didn't report such an important thing."

Jiraiya cursed a few words and returned to the office again, ready to report this to the Third Hokage.

As soon as he walked to the door, he heard the voice of the Anbu reporting the mission from inside.

"It is rumored that... Orochimaru has a close relationship with Uchiha Masa?"

The third generation frowned, "Huh?"

"It was said by Orochimaru himself. He likes Uchiha Masa, and in order to get in touch with Orochimaru, Uchiha Masa destroyed his tent and stayed in Orochimaru's tent for a day and a night without coming out."

When he reported this matter, he refused at first. If it was gossip, he would be happy about it. The problem is that this matter is true.

When the third generation Hokage heard this report, his eyes widened twice as big, and his mouth opened so wide that two eggs could be stuffed in.

If the person in front of him was not his Anbu, he would even suspect that he was sent by Uchiha to influence his judgment.

"Is the information true?"

"It came from Uchiha, and... Lord Sakumo also knew about it. He cursed after the two left! Everyone on the front line of Konoha knew about it."

The Anbu finally explained it again, fearing that the Hokage would think that his information was false.

Jiraiya, who was eavesdropping outside, almost had his eyes popping out.

"No wonder Orochimaru smiled at that kid!"

"No, I must stop Orochimaru, and he must not go astray. Although Uchiha Makoto looks good, he is still a child, a boy!"

"Come in!"

Just as he was about to leave, he heard the voice of the third generation.

Jiraiya had no choice but to come to the Hokage's office.

"Old man..."

"Have you eavesdropped enough? Has the Hyuga explained it clearly?"

"Old man, the matter is much more complicated. The Hyuga team that was ambushed was six people, and a Hyuga head family member is missing."

The third generation Hokage's eyelids twitched. A Hyuga head family member is missing, how can this be tolerated? What's even more infuriating is that the old Hyuga guy didn't say it until now.

How long has it been?

All the clues that can be found are gone.

"That... Orochimaru..." Jiraiya hesitated. Orochimaru was his good friend, and he must not let him go astray. As for Hyuga, he deserved it. "I'll go find Orochimaru. Let Minister Morino handle Hyuga's affairs. Let Minato find him to take over."

"What do you think of Uchiha Masaru?" The third generation rubbed his temple. He did not educate Orochimaru emotionally.

"He looks very handsome," Jiraiya frowned, "It seems that there are no Uchiha who are not good-looking, with slender figures, especially female ninjas..."

"Shut up!"

Uchiha Masaru and Orochimaru, who were preparing for the assassination mission in the Land of Rice, had no idea that their gossip had been passed to the Hokage.

Even Jiraiya got the mission route from the Hokage and was on his way to the Land of Rice.

"Lord Orochimaru, the other party is a ninja of Mizunotsuki, whether he should live or..."

Uchiha Makoto is not very interested in the bloodline limit, but it does not mean that Orochimaru is not interested. Otherwise, does he really just want to share some B-level tasks with everyone?

"It depends on your strength."

The snake licked the corner of his lips. Assassination is simple, but capturing alive is twice as difficult.

And Orochimaru does not intend to make a move.

"In this case... it will be difficult, but I will try my best. Lord Orochimaru just need to leave me a breath."

Uchiha Makoto is asking Orochimaru for a guarantee. As long as he can guarantee that his life is safe, he is not afraid to work.

"No problem, Makoto is my subordinate now."

With this answer, Uchiha Makoto also let go. From the intelligence, the target to be assassinated is Mizunotsuki Toki, whose strength is an elite Chunin, but after awakening the blood, he can already compete with Jonin.

If they were to fight face to face, Uchiha Makoto would not have the advantage in terms of physical condition.

So...

Uchiha Makoto immediately came up with a plan in his mind.

Mizunotsuki Toki appeared here to treat the Daimyo of the Land of Fields, and the person who gave the task did not reveal his identity.

Ding!

A thought flashed through Uchiha's mind.

He finally understood.

Orochimaru's target was the Daimyo of the Land of Fields,And taking my name to do this mission is just to cover up.

Now I am Orochimaru's shield.

In other words, Orochimaru has now begun to plan to build his own base.

"Oh, it's really annoying!"

Uchiha Makoto narrowed his eyes. Since Orochimaru can plot against me, how can he be a shield for no reason!

He must have half the right to use his laboratory and materials!

You must know that Orochimaru is the one who can get the first generation cells. Although I don't know if Orochimaru will share with him, if his strength can reach the level of Uchiha Madara, he won't give it to him? Give you a look and you will experience it yourself.

Or just say to him, Snake, borrow the first generation cells!

Why worry about not having materials.

After all, my strength is not enough.

Orochimaru values strength more than reputation, so... as long as I am strong enough, his laboratory is my own.

"Well, let's finish the mission."

When Mizunotsuki finished treating the daimyo and left the daimyo's mansion, Uchiha Makoto disguised himself as a beggar and used a genjutsu and several Senbon to seal all his acupuncture points.

There were no traces of fighting.

He sealed the person in the scroll given by Orochimaru.

Orochimaru was a little surprised to see Uchiha Makoto come back so early.

"So soon?"

A scroll was thrown on the table.

"Lord Orochimaru used me as a shield for more than just Mizunotsuki."

Orochimaru did not feel guilty about this, but laughed triumphantly.

"Oh? Tell me? What is my purpose?"

Uchiha Makoto poured himself a glass of water and said in a deep voice: "Daimyo of the Land of Fields."

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became weird.

There was a dangerous breath in Orochimaru's eyes.

Feeling the vague murderous aura, Uchiha Makoto immediately smiled.
