The Hokage, having traveled here, of course he'd unify the ninja world!

Chapter 134 Impersonation

Orochimaru smiled and didn't dwell on the question: "What are you doing here?"

"Check on your progress, and also, who is looking after the Sound Village."

Orochimaru shook his head and said, "We're just a bit short-handed. Things are all arranged here, and I'm going to look for some good prospects."

Chiyo chuckled inwardly. "I've already snatched Karin from you, and I'm on my way to Kimimaro's place."

"Have you recruited Kabuto into your ranks?" Qianyao asked.

"Kabuto?" Orochimaru had to think for a moment before remembering the name.

Orochimaru shook his head and said, "He's a pretty clever boy, but it seems he's been sent out by Root to gather intelligence."

Oh? Qian Yao's eyes lit up. Wasn't this a sure way to get the wool?

"What? He has something to do with me?" Orochimaru had already experienced Thousand Yao's eye technique.

He naturally knew that Qianyao's words likely meant that he and Dou would be deeply involved in the future.

Qian Yao smiled slightly: "He was once someone who surpassed you."

Orochimaru swept his tongue across the surface, a hint of excitement in his expression: "Oh? In what way?"

Qian Yao pondered for a moment: "He has learned the Snake Immortal Technique that you didn't."

"He has perfected the Impure World Reincarnation technique to its fullest extent, and can control it remotely."

"It almost destroyed the entire ninja world."

"And then?" Orochimaru hadn't expected that the child from back then would have such great talent.

Qianyao shrugged: "That's it, you're back to life."

These words sounded a bit strange, but Orochimaru could vaguely sense that Chiyo was flattering him.

That subconscious feeling of placing Orochimaru in a higher position.

Orochimaru was quite pleased with this.

"So, it seems Kabuto still has no choice but to be brought under my command."

Chiyo pondered for a moment, wondering if the incident of Kabuto Yakushi accidentally killing Nono had already occurred.

"Have the Hyuga clan keep an eye on them and see if Nono is at the orphanage."

"If he's not there, stay there and see if Nonou comes back, or if Kabuto goes back."

Orochimaru nodded: "I'll take care of it."

……

Qianyao stealthily made his way home, only to unexpectedly find Zhiyu practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard.

Seeing that Zhiyu was covered in sweat, it was clear that she had been training for a long time.

Liuli sat obediently in the wheelchair, her face clearly showing her happiness.

But this is not the point.

While practicing her sword, Zhiyu suddenly turned fierce and slashed at the empty space behind her.

Qianyao drew his weapon and blocked it with a clang.

Zhiyu and Liuli were both stunned. Hadn't Qianyao already told them?

Qianyao was also puzzled when he saw the three-tomoe Sharingan in Zhiyu's eyes.

Although Zhiyu had already reached the double-magatama level many years ago, she hadn't fought in all these years.

Or did you experience something unforgettable that led to your having three tomoe?

"Make your move and let me see your strength."

Qianyao became interested.

Seeing that she could no longer hide it, Zhiyu said excitedly, "Qianyao, let me show you what I'm capable of!"

He then swung his sword at Qianyao.

Qianyao only defended and did not attack, and the weapon in his hand clanged loudly as Zhiyu struck it.

At this moment, Chiyo had already activated his Mangekyou Sharingan. Under the suppression of the Sharingan's level, Zhiyu was completely unable to break through his defenses.

No matter how hard Zhiyu tried, Qianyao remained impenetrable.

Her eyes darted around, and an illusion struck, but Qianyao, being a kaleidoscope user, was naturally unharmed.

Zhiyu, on the other hand, was a little confused. She took a few steps back and then threw the weapon aside.

He lay sprawled out on the ground, completely disregarding his appearance.

Zhiyu was exhausted from her training, and now, after fighting Qianyao and failing with her illusion technique, she has no strength left in her body.

"I'm not fighting anymore, I'm not fighting anymore. Even with three tomoe, I'm no match for you."

Qianyao sheathed his sword; he hadn't underestimated Zhiyu at all.

During the illusion attack just now, Qianyao discovered that Zhiyu's eye power was much stronger than that of the clansmen who had just awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan.

Although her swordsmanship was inferior, it was only because she lacked combat experience.

Its Sharingan's insight is by no means weak.

Could it be that Zhiyu is a genius?

While Qianyao was deep in thought, Zhiyu slowly sat up.

"I'm sorry for keeping this from you for so long. Did it make things difficult for you?"

Within the Uchiha clan, those with the three-tomoe Sharingan are elites, typically pillars of the clan.

You're so young and you already have three jade scrolls, yet you stay home every day as a housewife.

This will inevitably be criticized by the Uchiha clan.

That's why Zhiyu kept wanting to return to the battle sequence for a while.

Qianyao waved his hand: "It's nothing, don't worry about it, it's just three tomoe."

"Just do what you need to do. With my status, it doesn't matter if someone finds out. It's a good thing anyway."

Zhiyu finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Qianyao."

Qian Yao chuckled softly:

"There's no need for you to keep this from me. I'm strong enough now. You just need to live the life you want."

Zhiyu came to Liuli's side, picked up the water glass on the small table next to her, and took a big gulp.

"Hey, my life is all about taking good care of Liuli."

Liuli giggled and said, "Sister Zhiyu is the best to me."

Seeing that Liuli's expression remained unchanged, Qianyao gave up on offering any further advice.

After all, Orochimaru's research wasn't finished yet, and it would be very agonizing to give Ruri hope too early.

……

The deepest part of Konoha Prison.

In an ordinary prison cell, a person with bandages wrapped around his eyes and arms is being held.

From the outside, this is Danzo Shimura.

But those familiar with Danzo would be able to tell from his expression that this person was definitely not Danzo.

Because Danzo's eyes were like those of a venomous snake, always gloomy and vicious.

This Danzo, there is none at all.

The dark areas outside are just for show.

"Cough cough..."

A cough from the ANBU member immediately caused Danzo inside to straighten up, looking quite imposing.

Only a few clan leaders from small tribes came in to see how Danzo was doing.

After they entered, they saw Danzo there, whispered a few words to each other, and then left.

I don't really want to deal with Danzo.

There were quite a few people like that today; they all came to see Danzo and then left.

Among the group of people, there was one person following behind, wearing round glasses, who looked harmless.

Kabuto only glanced at "Danzo" before following the others out.

This Danzo is a fake.

Dou seemed to be deep in thought, and quietly left the group.

"Hey? Where's that kid who came with you?"

"What do you mean 'came with me'? Didn't I come with you?"

Don't you recognize him?

"I don't know him."
