Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer

only……

Now this time.

Orochimaru's assistant could no longer listen to any of Orochimaru's words.

In his opinion.

The Lord Orochimaru in front of me is a fake!

After all, the Lord Orochimaru in front of him has already said the code word. This code word was said when Lord Orochimaru left. Now, no matter what the Lord Orochimaru in front of him says, he is already a fake.

This assistant's idea is very simple and firm. As long as the real Lord Orochimaru is confirmed, the rest will be false.

His hands were tightly clasped around the kunai.

Lord Orochimaru may be conducting very important experiments now, and Lord Orochimaru must not be disturbed.

Suddenly.

The assistant took the kunai and stabbed Orochimaru directly in the face.

The sharp edge of the kunai can still emit a trace of cold light in this dark corridor.

This ray of cold light reflected in Orochimaru's snake eyes, making Orochimaru's snake eyes become cold at this moment.

"What's wrong with you?"

Orochimaru glanced doubtfully at the assistant in front of him who rushed towards him desperately with a kunai. He stood calmly and calmly, seemingly not taking the assistant's attack seriously at all.

In an instant.

The assistant's attack came in front of Orochimaru.

Seeing that the kunai was about to stab Orochimaru in the face.

Just at this time.

Orochimaru suddenly raised his right hand and slapped his assistant on the wrist.

Uh-huh!

Orochimaru's right hand was extremely fast, and in an instant, a phantom flashed across his body. It struck first, and just when the kunai was about to stab his face, he slapped the assistant's wrist heavily directly.

"Wow!"

The assistant screamed in pain instantly, and the kunai in his hand came out uncontrollably. His wrist seemed to be on fire, with a burning pain.

The force Orochimaru used was not small.

The assistant flew backwards the moment he was hit, and his body's strength was unable to withstand the strength Orochimaru used.

"Ding!"

The kunai in the assistant's hand flew through the air and then fell to the ground, making a crisp sound after colliding with the ground.

"Bang!"

The assistant fell heavily to the ground, and the impact made him feel like all the bones in his body were falling apart.

Too cruel!

After the assistant fell down, he became even more convinced that the person just now was not Lord Orochimaru.

Lord Orochimaru felt sorry for him.

I would never do this to him!

then.

He thought that Lord Orochimaru might still be in the laboratory and should have heard the noise outside.

Lord Orochimaru should be coming out soon.

You must not show timidity at this time. You must bravely stand here to buy time for Lord Orochimaru and wait for Lord Orochimaru to return.

"You'd better be careful!"

The assistant immediately roared, and the sound echoed in the corridor and reached Orochimaru's ears clearly.

On the one hand, he shouted this to scare the impostor in front of him, and on the other hand, he wanted to remind the real Orochimaru in the laboratory at the end of the corridor.

"oh?"

Orochimaru frowned slightly, and his snake eyes focused on the assistant. Did this person take the wrong medicine?

He did ask his aides to pay attention.

To confront the code word.

Only in this way can you believe it.

But you can’t just assume someone is fake without even asking about the secret code!

After Orochimaru patted his assistant's wrist just now, he was able to confirm that this assistant was not the result of a shadow clone or transformation technique.

This assistant is his assistant.

There is a problem with this assistant's consciousness.

Don’t react too strongly!

"Have you calmed down?"

Orochimaru glanced at his assistant coldly, and moved his lips slightly, preparing to say the code word.

However.

Just when he was about to say the code word.

The assistant who fell to the ground roared again, his voice full of threat and hatred.

"Lord Orochimaru will be back soon, he won't let you go!"

The assistant's eyes were fixed on Orochimaru. Regardless of the pain in his body, he forced his body that felt like it was falling apart and stood up resolutely, with a look of death in his eyes.

From the moment he met Lord Orochimaru, this assistant was impressed by Lord Orochimaru's charisma. He was willing to dedicate everything to Lord Orochimaru, whether spiritual or physical.

In his opinion.

Now is one such moment.

No matter who wants to threaten Lord Orochimaru, they must step over his body.

"???"

Orochimaru felt a very psychedelic feeling when he saw the appearance of this assistant.

It's like shouting I love you while shouting at you with a loud mouth. The logic of language and action is separated and there is no consistency at all.

"Are you out of your mind?"

Orochimaru spoke calmly, and just as he spoke, his figure flashed out and rushed towards the assistant at an extremely fast speed.

Almost instantly.

Orochimaru appeared in front of this assistant.

Then he suddenly reached out and grabbed it.

He grabbed the assistant directly by the collar.

Lift the assistant high.

His snake eyes stared closely at the lifted assistant's eyes.

"You can see it clearly for me!"

"I am Orochimaru!"

"What are you doing!"

"There's lightning tonight!"

"Did you hear that clearly?"

"The code word I told you before I left, tonight, there will be lightning!"

Orochimaru spoke word by word until the end. His voice was loud and clear, echoing in the dark corridor.

"No...impossible..."

The assistant stared at Orochimaru in front of him with wide eyes, his eyes were extremely determined. He did not believe that the person in front of him was Orochimaru. After all, the person in front of him had already spoken the code word.

"You are not Lord Orochimaru!"

"The real Lord Orochimaru has entered the laboratory!"

"who are you?"

"Why are you pretending to be Lord Orochimaru?"

"How do you know the code words Lord Orochimaru told me?"

This assistant firmly believed that the person who came out first was Lord Orochimaru, and the person in front of him was fake.

but.

Although he looked very determined on the surface, he was still a little confused in his heart.

after all.

The Orochimaru in front of him also spoke the code words agreed upon between them.

A code word.

Two Orochimaru-sama are using it.

this……

This assistant tries his best not to think too much and to believe in his intuition, otherwise it will be easy to lose himself in this true and false situation.

Normally when encountering this situation, one is true and the other is false.

But for him...

It seems that I found two very real Orochimaru.

This is not the real Orochimaru.

This is the real Orochimaru!

The assistant was thinking a lot at this moment. He didn't care about the physical pain, he just wanted to figure out what was going on.

In just a few minutes, I met two Orochimaru, and Orochimaru still said the code word in both of them.

How could this happen? !

what on earth is it? !

Which Orochimaru-sama is the real Orochimaru-sama? !

All of a sudden.

The assistant was no longer so firm. He had begun to waver about the situation, and he had even begun to feel a little confused.

"Um?"

Orochimaru frowned again after hearing his assistant's words, and he keenly captured a few key words.

These keywords made him vaguely aware of what was happening.

"you mean……"

Orochimaru's face instantly calmed down, and he knew that his assistant was loyal to him and would not betray him in a brainless manner.

to be able to react like this.

That's when something special happened.

for example……

I met another him!

"You saw the other me and spoke a code word?"

Orochimaru judged this possibility based on the assistant's words, and then immediately realized something was wrong.

Could it be that……

Something he was worried about before leaving.

Did this really happen?

Isn’t that a bit exaggerated?

Orochimaru expected that someone might pretend to be him, but he didn't expect that it would happen so quickly, and it would happen to him like this!

How dare you!

Orochimaru's face became extremely ugly, and his snake eyes flashed with dangerous eyes, staring closely at the assistant in front of him.

"Where is the other me you saw?"

Orochimaru asked immediately.

He is not in the mood to argue too much with his assistant on whether it is true or false!

It's urgent.

It is necessary to quickly find the person pretending to be him.

Minimize losses!

Orochimaru had already realized that just when he was teleporting through the psychic technique on the scroll, the other party had already turned against the enemy and took the initiative by taking advantage of the situation.

"ah……"

The assistant hesitated slightly after hearing Orochimaru's words.

But he suddenly realized something important.

No matter whether the person in front of him is the real Lord Orochimaru or the fake Lord Orochimaru.

It doesn't matter if the person in the laboratory is the real Orochimaru-sama or the fake Orochimaru-sama.

He firmly believes in one thing!

That means the fake Orochimaru-sama cannot defeat the real Orochimaru-sama!

Suddenly.

He immediately raised his hand and pointed towards the laboratory at the end of the corridor.

Because his body was lifted up, the angle of his arms was a little tilted, but the pointing was still obvious.

"Lord Orochimaru is in the laboratory!"

The assistant said in a deep voice. After he finished speaking, he did not add anything and said, "If you are scared, get out of here!"

Uh-huh!

Just when the assistant finished saying this.

His eyes instantly spun.

He felt a sudden and terrifying force.

The force threw him straight away.

He experienced a period of spinning in the air, and finally fell heavily to the ground.

"Bang!"

The assistant's back hit the ground again. Compared to the previous hit, this time it was much lighter, but it still caused him great pain.

"It hurts..."

The assistant supported his waist and leaned his body lying on the ground towards the end of the corridor. Dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, and he became even more angry with this fake Orochimaru. He wished that Lord Orochimaru would teach him a lesson. A meal.

"Lord Orochimaru will avenge me!"

The assistant lay on the ground and took deep breaths continuously to relieve the pain in his body, and then prepared to get up with force.

He couldn't just fall down.

He was going to the laboratory to watch Master Orochimaru tear apart the counterfeit.

…

After Orochimaru heard the assistant's words, he immediately realized that something was wrong.

He was no longer in the mood to care about the assistant.

Walk directly towards the laboratory door as quickly as possible.

Quickly open the laboratory.

Orochimaru's footsteps stopped at the door, and his sharp snake eyes swept towards the laboratory.

In the dark laboratory, only the cylindrical containers containing nutrient solution emitted a faint light, and no one could be seen anywhere as far as the eye could see.

no one?

Orochimaru's face became serious. He didn't believe that there was no one here, and he even felt that the person pretending to be him was hiding.

"I know you're in there."

Orochimaru's solemn voice sounded. As he spoke, he licked the corners of his mouth, cautiously walked into the room, and closed the laboratory door with his backhand.

After he entered the experiment.

As far as I can see, there are no problems with the machines used for experiments.

The worries in my heart were instantly relieved.

You can tell.

The other party's purpose was not to destroy his laboratory.

"Aren't you coming out yet?"

Orochimaru listened carefully to the movements around him. He didn't hear any sound, and he became even more aware that something was wrong here.

"Then just wait until I find you!"

Orochimaru suddenly shook his hand out, and suddenly snakes emerged from his sleeves, snaking along the ground, searching every corner of the laboratory.

Half an hour later.

After Orochimaru searched every location in the laboratory.

Finally one thing is certain.

That person is gone.

"How abominable!"

"I actually let you run away!"

"I don't even know how you ran away!"

A flash of anger appeared on Orochimaru's face, and then the anger turned into a smile.

"Things are getting interesting!"

Orochimaru didn't expect that he would meet such a magical person tonight. The most important thing is that he doesn't even know who the other person is now.

"You wouldn't come to my office without a purpose!"

"Let me guess what you want..."

"It should be corpse-turning water!"

Orochimaru walked to his laboratory desk. From the words of the two root ninjas who appeared before, he judged that the purpose should be the corpse water.

Suddenly.

Orochimaru opened the second drawer of his desk.

What you can see is an empty drawer, with just a folded piece of paper lying inside.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Orochimaru suddenly laughed wildly, his laughter filled with self-deprecation.

"It's indeed corpse-turning water!"

“And there’s not even a bottle left for me!”

"It's really yours!"

"I remember this grudge!"

Orochimaru smiled and gradually calmed down, staring at the paper in the drawer.

He knew that this piece of paper was left by that person. He didn't even need to open it to know that there were provocative words inside.

but.

He picked up the paper anyway.

Open the paper.

Lines of slightly hidden handwriting came into his sight.

"Thank you, Orochimaru-sama, for sending me the zombie water. I have received the goods and received a five-star review.

There are a lot of good things in the laboratory.

Will stay again.

Since Orochimaru-sama is kind enough to raise concerns about my technique, I am also kind enough to remind Orochimaru-sama of the loopholes.

Actually.

I'm older than you!

at last.

I advise you to mind your own business!

Otherwise, Orochimaru-sama, what you are researching in your laboratory will be known to the entire Konoha Village."

The content of this seal is simple.

And there is no signature.

After Orochimaru saw it, a fierce look shot out from his snake eyes, and he clenched his fists tightly with both hands.

"How dare you threaten me!"

Orochimaru stared at the words on the letter, as if he wanted to find some flaws in the words, but he found nothing.

"Interesting! Interesting! It's really interesting!"

Orochimaru put the letter into his pocket, shook his head with a sneer, and walked towards the entrance of the laboratory.

"This matter will never be settled like this!"

Orochimaru silently muttered to himself, he had never suffered such a loss before, and his mind was already thinking about who the other party might be.

Just after he opened the door and walked out.

I immediately saw the assistant waiting at the door.

The assistant's eyes suddenly lit up after seeing Orochimaru.

"Lord Orochimaru, have you dealt with that impostor?" The assistant was still supporting his waist when he spoke. He was very painful from being thrown just now, and he didn't have any good impressions of the impostor.

"Let him run away." Orochimaru said calmly.

"Damn it! He actually let him run away! He just fell and it hurt me so much!" the assistant complained helplessly.

"I was the one who threw you just now." Orochimaru rolled his eyes at the assistant. He didn't know how to complain, and he still hadn't reacted yet.

"Ah?" The assistant was stunned immediately, staring at Orochimaru with wide eyes, full of confusion, and the expression on his face gradually became complicated.

…

On the other side of Konoha Village, on a high tower, in a second-story house.

Qingyu rubbed his forehead with both hands, with a faint smile on his face. Now he felt much more comfortable.

"I was almost fooled by Orochimaru!"

Qingyu didn't know how much back-up there was in Orochimaru's words, such as how he would change if he agreed to be Orochimaru's disciple. Orochimaru was simply full of routines.

"Now let me take a closer look at this assistant's memory."

Qingyu closed his eyes and looked through the assistant's memories in his mind. He could vaguely feel that the assistant should know a lot of things in his mind. After all, he had been following Orochimaru during this period of time.

All of a sudden.

Scene after scene.

emerged from Qingyu's mind.

Now he has put himself into the assistant's perspective to see what Orochimaru did during this time.
