After the negotiation, Kakashi returned to Hikari and said,”We have discussed it. We can accept all your conditions. Now you can stay here with peace of mind.””

“Don’t we need to ask Hinata’s opinion?” Hitani pointed at Hinata who was in the distance and looked innocent.

Kakashi looked back at Hinata, then shook his head and said,”I believe Hinata herself is definitely willing to contribute to Konoha. There is no need to ask for her opinion. Just treat it as a task issued by me as the Hokage.”

“Then whatever.” Hitani said nothing more, and waved to Hinata who was stunned in the distance,”Come here.” Hinata immediately came over obediently and stood beside Kakashi.

Kakashi said to her,”You will stay with them for the next few days. This is the task I gave you. You must complete it well. You can’t anger them, and you can’t refuse any of their reasonable requests. Do you understand?”

“Got it.” Without any hesitation, Hinata nodded obediently.

“Good.” Kakashi smiled and said to Hitani,”Shall I take you to your residence now?���

“Not for now, I need to go to the dungeon. Sasuke and Orochimaru should be locked up in the dungeon now.”Hitoshi asked

“”Them? Yes, they came to me this morning and said they wanted to return to Konoha. Since they are all traitors, I will lock them up in the dungeon first. I will release them only after I make sure they are not a threat. What do you want to do with them?” Kakashi asked.

“Well, to be precise, I have something to do with Orochimaru, so I won’t care about Sasuke.” Hitani said as he walked out of the base and ordered,”Take me to the dungeon, Nagato and Hinata, you guys should come with me too.””

……

The Konoha Anbu dungeon is located in a forest at the easternmost part of the village.

The dungeon is designed to look like an underground fortress, with several Anbu guarding the entrance and many Anbu patrols patrolling around.

Led by Kakashi, they entered this magnificent underground fortress.

The fortress is divided into three floors, and each floor has at least more than ten cells, and almost every cell is filled with prisoners.

Kakashi led a few people along the corridor and introduced:”Because the trees in Konoha are tall and attract wind, there are many ninjas who want to cause trouble for Konoha, so the number of prisoners held in our dungeon is almost the largest among the five major ninja villages.” Hitani nodded

, and while following Kakashi, he looked around and saw many familiar faces, such as the God of Thunder and the God of Wind.

Soon, they came to the innermost cell.

In the cell was a person who was tied up with bandages all over his body, even his head was wrapped in bandages, with only a pair of nostrils showing for breathing.

“Orochimaru.” Kakashi stood in front of the cell door, but did not go in. He shouted inside:”Hitoshi is here to talk to you.”

Hearing this, Orochimaru, who was tied up with bandages, raised his head slightly, facing the direction of the cell door, and asked in a muffled voice:”Hitoshi? The one from Akatsuki? What do you want from me?””

“Untie his bandages first. I don’t know how to talk to him with only his nostrils facing me.

“This… is very dangerous.” Kakashi scratched his head in embarrassment.

“Don’t worry, just untie it. If he dares to do anything, I will help you kill him immediately. With me here, no one can escape.” Hitani said calmly.

Hearing this, Kakashi thought about it and did not refuse. He opened the cell door, walked to Orochimaru, and helped untie the bandages on Orochimaru’s body.

After the bandages were untied, Orochimaru took a deep breath of fresh air, then looked at Hitani and said,”I don’t know you well, right? You came to this dirty dungeon specifically to find me. Is there something you want my help with?”

“Of course, otherwise, do you think I came to visit relatives?” After saying this, Hitani pointed at the silent Nagato beside him and said,”Help heal his body.”

Upon hearing this, Nagato was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Hitani, surprised and said,”Heal, heal my body?”

“Yes.” Hitani pinched Nagato’s bony arm and said disdainfully,”Look at you, there is only a layer of bones left on your body. You didn’t have a chance before, but now Orochimaru is here, it shouldn’t be a problem for him to help you recover.”

“But… don’t bother me. I’ve been like this since Yahiko died. I’m used to it.” Nagato shook his head.

“That won’t do. You are so weak now. I believe you also have kidney deficiency.”Hitoshi said with a smile.

Hearing the word kidney deficiency, Nagato’s face flushed and he was immediately embarrassed.

“As my companion, you can’t be so unmanly, so accept the treatment, it will be good for you.”Hitoshi patted his shoulder earnestly.

Now Nagato didn’t refuse, lowered his head, and agreed.

So Hitoshi looked at Orochimaru and said:”This is the purpose of looking for you, Nagato’s body, you should be able to heal it? Don’t tell me you can’t do it”

“That’s impossible.” Orochimaru immediately said proudly:”As long as it is not sealed, there is no disease that I can’t cure, but why should I help you? What’s the benefit for me?”

“Help me, and I will let you out of dungeon 193 and restore your freedom.

“Ah, ah?!”Hearing this, Kakashi raised his eyebrows and quickly said to Hitani:”But, but I haven’t agreed yet, right? He is a serious criminal in Konoha, and he needs to be observed for a while before he can——”

“If you don’t agree, I will leave Konoha immediately, and you will find a way out when the Otsutsuki clan attacks.” Hitani interrupted lightly.

With these words, Kakashi immediately shut up. The corners of his mouth twitched with anger. He turned his head and said unhappily:”It’s up to you, do whatever you want, I don’t care.”

Hitani smiled and said to Orochimaru:”Then do you want to agree? If I don’t let you go, you will have to stay in the dungeon for at least a few months, or even a year before you are released. By the time you show up, the technological level of the ninja world will have improved by several levels. By that time, all your research projects will be scrapped.”

Originally Orochimaru wanted to refuse, but after hearing the words”the research project is scrapped”, he paused, then said gloomily:”I didn’t expect you knew my weakness. Forget it, I’ll do as you say this time.”

“This is a smart person.” Hitani nodded with satisfaction, and said to the sulking Kakashi:”Take him out, and let him live with me for a few days. With me watching him, he won’t dare to do anything wrong.”
