Scourge of Naruto

Facing the former genius student and now the mainstay, Sarutobi could not be strong. After all, even he did not agree to hand over Ye Zi.

The threats used by Iwa Ninja to force Konoha to hand over Ye Zi were largely just a bluff, because war would never be so rash, but most of Konoha's top brass didn't want to take the risk.

Sarutobi looked at Orochimaru's serious expression, and his tone became more serious: I will try my best to fight for it.

Orochimaru looked at Sarutobi silently. From the beginning when Sarutobi said he would give it a try, he did not believe that there was room for change in this matter. He could not understand when the top management of Konoha became so weak, or in other words, When did Konoha, the most powerful, become so weak?

He didn't say anything else. He only felt disappointed with Sarutobi. He nodded and turned around and left without saying a word.

Sarutobi looked at his figure and couldn't help but sigh. No matter how beautiful his words were, whether he could hand it over to Ye Zi or not, his words would always fall into the hands of the higher-ups, unless he refuted them in the strongest possible manner, but was it worth it?

Yes, Sarutobi thinks it's not worth it, so he will only try his best, but will not respond to Orochimaru in a positive tone.

Ye Zi didn't deserve what he did because he never saw a sense of belonging in Ye Zi.

He can let Ye Zi grow up, and he is always looking forward to Ye Zi becoming the mainstay of Konoha one day, but unfortunately, until now, he has never seen Ye Zi's recognition and belonging to Konoha.

That night, after finishing the meal, Orochimaru stopped Ye Zi who was about to get up to clear away the dishes. After Ye Zi sat down again, he said, You must have heard some rumors.

Ye Zi nodded upon hearing this, knowing what Orochimaru was referring to, and said calmly: Isn't this kind of request ridiculous?

That's ridiculous. Orochimaru responded, then looked silently at the oil-stained empty plates on the table.

Orochimaru's sudden silence made Ye Zi understand that that ridiculous request seemed to be granted.

You can't even do anything? Ye Zi looked at Orochimaru. He was not afraid that he would be handed over by Konoha, but he didn't want to leave Konoha so soon.

Indeed, Ye Zi does not have any sense of belonging to Konoha. This can be seen from the briefings Sarutobi sends in his hand at all times.

Orochimaru's eyes flashed slightly, and he said in a hoarse voice: I will find a way.

Ye Zi smiled indifferently, not wanting to embarrass Orochimaru, and said: It must be a difficult thing. The world is very big, and there is always a place for me, and it doesn't have to be in Konoha.

Things are often relative. Sarutobi hopes that Ye Zi will have a sense of belonging to Konoha and become a part of protecting Konoha in the future. However, he does not know that Ye Zi has long been aware of the ANBU who are secretly watching him. This kind of situation, how to make people feel a sense of belonging?

You can only stay in Konoha. Orochimaru said without any doubt.

Ye Zi was silent when he heard this, and after a moment he calmly said: I am no longer the child who couldn't tie a chicken with my hands.

Orochimaru said: You are not strong enough to ignore the killing troops sent by other ninja villages. If you insist on leaving, it is better to die in Konoha than to die in the hands of others.

Ye Zi's eyes changed slightly, looking at Orochimaru, his tone became serious: Orochimaru, are you serious?

Orochimaru also looked at him, his face expressionless, his eyes full of coldness, and he said nothing.

The atmosphere in the venue suddenly became a little cold.

Ye Zi suddenly sneered and said, I didn't expect that the biggest obstacle to leaving was you. You didn't kill me back then, and don't even think about killing me now.

Orochimaru just looked at him coldly and said after a long time: I will find a way.

You can't help it. Ye Zi stood up expressionlessly and began to clear away the dishes.

Orochimaru silently watched him clearing the dishes. Indeed, he had nothing to do with the decision of the top management of Konoha. He had made great military exploits and had a great reputation. He was one of the three ninjas of Konoha. However, for Konoha's He had no say in the decision-making process.

Ye Zi went straight back to the room after clearing the dishes, while Orochimaru sat alone in the living room. It wasn't until the moonlight shone from the courtyard into the hall that he turned to look at the courtyard where the silver light fell. After a long time, he slowly stood up. , walked towards the room.

At this moment, he had already decided that if there was really no other way, he would kill Ye Zi.

As he said, it would be better to die in Konoha than to let Ye Zi die in the hands of others. His body also has high research value.

From beginning to end, he did not believe that Ye Zi could survive after leaving Konoha.
