The Blind Swordsman of the Uchiha Family

　　That person will be the object of his assessment three days later.

　　And that person, tonight, will definitely come to him.

　　If not come.

　　It can only be said that Chiba was too disappointed with Sarutobi Hizan.

　　Then--

　　A pale face suddenly appeared on Chiba's side, only a few centimeters away from Chiba.

　　The slender tongue swallowed like a poisonous snake.

　　"Chiba-kun... we—meet again!"

　　Please close your eyes when it's dark and be careful of Orochimaru!

　　He finally came.

　　Facing this man who was full of danger all the time, Chiba just raised his hand calmly.

　　"Sit down, Mr. Orochimaru."

　　"I don't know if you have finished eating."

　　"However, tonight's supper is my treat."

　　Hearing this, Orochimaru smiled.

　　He seemed to hide his surprise.

　　After thinking about it, it seems that the other party can't see his expression.

　　He simply sat down directly at the bonfire in front of Chiba.

　　Then, Chiba threw a gourd to Orochimaru.

　　"what is this?"

　　"Wine! I made it myself, it's a bit strong, so be careful."

　　Orochimaru looked at Chiba in surprise.

　　The ghost took over Chiba's wine gourd and took a sip.

　　The frown meant his throat wasn't feeling well.

　　Really strong.

　　At the time, the aftertaste was more mellow.

　　"Chiba-kun...are you—waiting for me?"

　　"of course."

　　"You know I'll be here tonight?"

　　"Ah, I know!"

　　Chiba also took a sip, but only took a small sip.

　　It was his own wine, and he knew how strong it was.

　　"Because—I should be your only [confidant], right? If you have something happy, of course you will come and share it with your [confidant]!"

　　Hearing this, Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a strange smile.

　　"You know what I'm happy about?"

　　"of course."

　　"For a scientist, is there anything more gratifying than being able to observe and study his own experimental material up close?"

　　Orochimaru stuck out his tongue, a little surprised.

　　"Sure enough, Chiba-kun, you are very special!"

　　"I didn't expect you to know Sarutobi-sensei so well."

　　"So, do you want me to release water for your graduation assessment?"

　　"Release water? No need."

　　Chiba took a sip of the spirits open-mindedly, then took down the game skewer and ate it.

　　"If you don't complete the mission given by Sarutobi Hijen, you will disappoint him."

　　"He won't be happy when I finish it!"

　　"Moreover, my suspicions will not be diminished in the slightest."

　　Yes.

　　For a suspicious person like Hiruzen Sarutobi, how could the suspicion be easily reduced?

　　impossible.

　　The graduation assessment opponent that Sarutobi Hizan found for Chiba was Orochimaru.

　　This is not only to suppress the Uchiha family, but also to test Orochimaru.

　　If Orochimaru successfully completes the task, it will not only give the Uchiha family a disgrace, but also send a warning signal to Orochimaru.

　　Externally, he created the illusion that Orochimaru was still his obedient apprentice. Internally, he was still wary of Orochimaru.

　　How could Sarutobi Hiizan pass up such an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone?

　　"Although I don't know how to release water, I won't really listen to Hiruzen Sarutobi's words."

　　"I'll test you by my standards."

　　"Oh? What standard?"

　　"Of course it is the standard for experimental subjects!"

　　Sharingan is Orochimaru's obsession, and what he longs for is eternal life.

　　Invisible Shakers, and powerful physical talent.

　　Chiba fully meets Orochimaru's requirements for both.

　　He - to prepare for his [eternal life].

　　Even [Undead Reincarnation] has not really been completed.

　　ps: Ask for a flower, an evaluation ticket, and a monthly ticket! .

Chapter 58

　　Orochimaru would never have imagined that he would actually have a good conversation with a six-year-old child.

　　More importantly, that child is still the experimental subject he ordered.

　　Chiba seems to be really his confidant.

　　Since Orochimaru began to see the meaning of life and began to study [Eternal Life].

　　No one could understand him.

　　Whether it is Sarutobi Hizen as a teacher, or Jiraiya Tsunade as a companion.

　　This is all the case.

　　And Orochimaru didn't expect anyone to understand him.

　　He knows that scientists are all alone.

　　Genius and lunatic are just a matter of one thought.

　　In Orochimaru's view.

　　【Eternal life】is the final evolution of life.

　　And in the evolution of life, how could there be no sacrifice?

　　He looked at these sacrifices rationally.

　　However, others don't think so.

　　and so--

　　He will eventually become a lunatic.

　　And Chiba, understand this lunatic.

　　He does not agree, but understands.

　　He would not agree with Orochimaru's actions.

　　However, the same will not stand on the so-called commanding heights to judge.

　　"Qianye-kun, I am a little reluctant to treat you as an experimental subject!"

　　Orochimaru stuck out his tongue with a smile.

　　But Chiba sighed.

　　"Why is this necessary..."

　　"Mr. Orochimaru."

　　"You and I are [confidants], doesn't it seem hypocritical to say this?"

　　"Do serious people speak their minds?"

　　"Yes!"

　　Orochimaru smiled.

　　"Will you speak your mind?"

　　"No, then will you? Mr. Orochimaru?"

　　"Who can speak what's in their hearts?"
