Chapter 71 - 71 Meeting Orochimaru Again
Orochimaru did not seem to find Kakashi and Shisui who is hiding, but just walked over the cliff and looked at Kirigakure in the distance.
"Is the Kaguya clan starting to act? Well, they are a clan with no brain."
Orochimaru sighed and stand on the cliff without moving.
Kakashi and Shisui are still on the tree not far away, and they are not planning to approach.
Even if it is Orochimaru, Kakashi is naturally not afraid because of his strength now. After all, even if he can't defeat him, he can still retreat easily.
It's just that there is Shisui with him, and it's still near Kirigakure, so Kakashi doesn't dare to attack Orochimaru right now.
When he fights against Orochimaru, a lot of Kirigakure's shinobi will be attracted. If that happens, it will be hard for Kakashi and Shisui.
Just as Kakashi was thinking about what to do, there was another person in the distance.
Kakashi couldn't help but be speechless. How popular is this cliff? Why did a lot of people come here?
The newcomer is a white hair boy, with a bone sword in his hand, he is actually Kimimaro who has just been released.
Kimimaro saw Orochimaru at the cliff, and then he tried to kill Orochimaru. Unfortunately, Kimimaro is not an opponent of Orochimaru.
Orochimaru didn't fight back and just kicking Kimimaro to the ground.
Kimimaro stood up and wanted to attack Orochimaru again.
"Wait a minute!" Orochimaru said.
Kimimaro hearing this stopped.
Orochimaru smirked and said: "You are really anxious, I am not a person of this village."
Orochimaru said that as his golden pupil that is gloomy and cold looks at Kimimaro.
Kakashi saw that Orochimaru was adding some kind of psychological attacks to Kimimaro. It was a kind of Genjutsu, but it was very clever used by Orochimaru, so Kimimaro did not find out about it.
"Your goal is there, go." Orochimaru said as he points toward Kirigakure.
Kimimaro hearing this then jumped over the cliff to find his target.
This cliff height is not difficult for shinobi to jump from.
"It seems that the Kaguya clan has really begun to act. A group of fools who can only find their sense of existence in battle, what does it mean to live?"
Orochimaru thoughtfully looks at the moon in the sky.
"Come out, you have been hiding for so long."
Orochimaru suddenly said as Kakashi and Shisui are stunned.
Kakashi smiled, 'It seems we were still discovered. Orochimaru is an expert, so he still can discover us even after we hide skillfully.'
Kakashi didn't even bother staying silent, and jump directly from his hiding place. Seeing this, Shisui then come out too.
"Oh? It turned out to be an acquaintance. It's been such a long time since we've seen each other, Kakashi."
Orochimaru seems a little surprised to see Kakashi here, as there is a hint of curiosity on his face.
"I didn't expect to see you here either."
"Haha, then we really have a fate. Looking at your clothes, are you trying to sneak into Kirigakure to inquire about some intelligence? Sandaime is still like this, always like to plan ahead, trying to find out the strange things happening in other villages."
"What is your purpose? Is it for the boy just now?" Kakashi did not answer Orochimaru's question, but instead looks directly at Orochimaru's golden pupil.
"Oh? I didn't expect you to find out, that boy is really good. The Ability of the Kaguya clan also made me very excited, but I still not very interested in him, but it will change depends on whether he can survive this war or not."
Orochimaru was not actually surprised about Kakashi's guess, as he was just answering plainly.
"After leaving Konoha, it looks like you are very leisure now."
"Haha, if you are interested, you can go to my village and settle down in there too, Kakashi."
"Your village?"
Kakashi is a little surprised, 'Orochimaru has built Otogakure? Isn't this too fast?'
"Yes, although it's still just a prototype, it's a very good place."
"That is very interesting."
Kakashi and Orochimaru are talking about things like old friends who haven't seen for many years, but Shisui doesn't understand.
'Why is Kakashi-Senpai so happy to talk to a missing-nin?
Why is Kakashi-Senpai not attacking him right now?'
Orochimaru looked at Kakashi up and down, and he was amazed.
'Unexpectedly, after not seeing him for three years, Kakashi has reached this level.'
Originally, Orochimaru thought that Kakashi would still need at least five or six years. He didn't expect that only after three years, Kakashi's Strength has almost reaching Kage-level.'
Orochimaru didn't do anything is because on one hand, they are near Kirigakure, and on the other hand, it was because Orochimaru felt the mighty Strength from Kakashi's body.
Even if Kakashi still can't be compared himself, he's already not that far off.
If he really fights against Kakashi now, it is estimated that the battle will take a long time.
If that happen, it will only attracts more people, the gains do not make up for the losses, so it is not conducive to Orochimaru's purpose.
The two sides have their own concerns, and this has created such a strange situation.
"Haha, I still have something to do, I will see later Kakashi."
Orochimaru said that as his whole body sank into the ground and disappeared.
"Silver, why didn't you fight him? He is Konoha's missing-nin!"
Shisui asked inexplicably.
"Do you have the confidence to win against him?" Kakashi asked.
"That..."
Orochimaru is one of Sandaime's disciples, he is also known as one of the Sannin. So his strength won't be small.
Coupled with the feeling just now, Shisui knows that he is not Orochimaru's opponent for the time being.
"We are now near Kirigakure, we shouldn't do anything rash, Orochimaru is not our main purpose, so we don't have to pay attention to him. When we get back, I will tell Sandaime about this."
"I understand!"
After seeing Kakashi saying that, Shisui just nods.
Their situation at this time is really not suitable for fighting with Orochimaru.
At this moment, there was a flash of fire in the distance, which was the direction of Kirigakure.
"It seems that the Kaguya clan should be fighting with Kirigakure now. It looks like they really are the one Kirigakure is waiting for."
Kakashi breathes a sigh of relief. Kaguya clan is overestimating their capabilities to deal with a village with only such of strength.
Kakashi suddenly remembered that the Uchiha clan would be trying to do this a few years later, but they were killed in the cradle before they even had time to act.
The Kaguya clan is attacking Kirigakure in order to prove their ability and enjoy the battle.
The Uchiha clan is for survival and for the hope of their clan.
"Silver, what do we do now?" Shisui asked.
"We have investigated all the things we need, we should get ready to go back."
"Is it? But we are afraid to ask the two of you to stay here. Our Kirigakure is not the place where anyone can come and leave at will! Water Release: Hiding in Mist Technique!"
The abrupt voice sounded around the two, and then fog shrouded in all around.
The two were shocked, there were some people coming closer to them!
Kakashi smiled bitterly. 'I was too focused on Orochimaru. I didn't even notice that someone came over. And now it seems that we are surrounded. It's troublesome.'
The Millennium sword appeared in his right hand, Kakashi indifferently said: "Blink, it looks like we need to fight now."
Shisui held tanto in his hand and his face is full of fighting will. He also knew that there will be a fierce battle.
"Yes!"
