Chapter 57

“Are you confident about the graduation assessment three days later?”

Uchiha Fugaku and Itachi left first.

Obviously, it was Chiba who took the lead in Kushina’s apprenticeship, but Itachi was one step ahead and became Kushina’s apprentice.

“Sarutobi Hiruzen may use you to suppress the Uchiha clan.”

“At that time, I am afraid that it will use any tricky means.”

“If you lose, you won’t be a ninja.”

Hearing this, Chiba froze for a moment, and suddenly raised his head to face Kushina.

Obviously, I couldn’t see the eyes, but Kushina read the meaning of sneer.

Kushina was a little surprised by this expression.

“what’s happenin?”

“Do you really think…I care about the identity of Konoha Shinobi?”

“Do you really think… the ninja forehead protector given to me by Sarutobi Hiruzen, would I care?”

No, Chiba never cared.

“About the graduation assessment he proposed, I have a good idea.”

“I can probably know who the opponent is.”

“You know this as well?”

Kushina blinked, a little curious.

“I guess so.”

“Do you know? Kushina.”

“When you really understand the hand of an opponent, you can reverse the means according to the purpose.”

“You mean…Do you know Sarutobi Hiruzen well?”

Even so, it is not appropriate to discuss Konoha’s Hokage in private.

However, Kushina never cared about these.

Although she has always regarded Konoha as her second home.

However, as Jinchūriki, she knew what kind of existence she was in Konoha.

The so-called Will of Fire has never had such a great restraint on her.

The will she inherited has never been the will of fire, but came from the first generation of Nine Tails Jinchūriki-Uzumaki Mito.

“I guess so···”

Chiba gave an inaccurate answer.

Does he understand?

Understand, after all, Chiba knew many things about Sarutobi Hiruzen and even witnessed his death.

But, do you really understand?

After all, from beginning to end, Chiba and Sarutobi Hiruzen really met, but three times in a row.

The conversation is very few.

···

Today, Chiba slipped out for training reasons.

He found a good place to admire the moonlight, and then raised a bonfire, stringing the prey he had hit and baking on the bonfire.

Not for a moment.

The purely wild smell of meat filled the air.

A plume of smoke from a bonfire in the middle of the night.

It can be considered a special flavor.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Chiba is waiting for someone.

Waiting for someone special.

That person will be the subject of his assessment in three days.

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

If it doesn’t come.

It can only be said that Chiba is too disappointed with Sarutobi Hiruzen.

then–

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

The slender tongue vomited like Lion Majesty.

“Chiba-kun…we-meet again!”

Please close your eyes at dark and be careful Orochimaru!

He is here after all.

Facing this person who is 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, for supper tonight, I will treat you.”

Hearing this, Orochimaru smiled.

It seems to be hiding his surprise.

Then he thought about it, it seemed that his expression could not be seen by the other party.

Simply sit down directly at the campfire in front of Chiba.



Then, Chiba threw a gourd to Orochimaru.

“what is this?”

“Wine! Make it yourself, it’s a bit strong, please pay attention.”

Orochimaru looked at Chiba in surprise.

The ghost took Chiba’s wine gourd and took a sip.

The frown means that his throat is uncomfortable.

It was really strong.

At that time, the aftertaste was more mellow.

“Chiba-kun…are you waiting for me?”

“of course.”

“Do you know I will come tonight?”

“Ah, I know!”

Chiba took a sip too, but only took a sip.

This is his own wine. He knows how strong it is.

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

Hearing this, Orochimaru’s eyes narrowed slightly and a strange smile appeared.

“Do you know what I am happy about?”

“of course.”

“For a scientist, is there anything more happier than being able to observe and study his own experimental materials up close?”

Orochimaru stuck out his tongue, a little surprised.

“Sure enough, Chiba-san, you are special!”

“I didn’t expect you to know Mr. Sarutobi so much.”

“So, do you want me to release water when I give you the graduation assessment?”

“Release the water? No need.”

Chiba took a sip of the spirits openly, then grabbed the game skewers and ate it.

“If you fail to complete the task given by Sarutobi Hiruzen, you will disappoint him.”

“He won’t be happy if I am finished!”

“Moreover, there will be no diminishing suspicion of me.”

Yup.

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

impossible.

The opponent that Sarutobi Hiruzen found for Chiba was Orochimaru.

This is not only an attempt to suppress the Uchiha clan, but also a test of Orochimaru.

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

Externally, it creates an illusion that Orochimaru is still his obedient apprentice, and internally, he is still wary of Orochimaru.

How could Sarutobi Hiruzen let go of this opportunity to kill two birds with one stone?

“Although I don’t know how to release water, I don’t really listen to Sarutobi Hiruzen.”

“I will test you by my standards.”

“Oh? What standard?”

“Of course it is the standard of the experimental body!”

Sharingan is Orochimaru’s obsession, and what he longs for is immortality.

Invisible Sharingan, and powerful physical talent.

Chiba fully meets Orochimaru’s requirements for both.

He-must prepare for his [eternal life].

Even the [Immortal Reincarnation] has not been completed in the true sense.
