Traveling with Indra

Chapter 164 Debt Collection

It took half a month to reorganize Orochimaru's forces, and the Daimyo of the Land of Rice was kicked off. They organized the land well and used it as their base to produce food and supplies.

Those poor experimental subjects were managed separately from Orochimaru's subordinates. Those who wanted to go home could go home, those who had nowhere to go could stay, and those who wanted to seek revenge on Orochimaru could go.

Sasuke had no intention of seeking justice for him, as he had not caused the suffering. If he had not come to recruit Orochimaru, the experimental subject would have continued to be experimented on.

The Yakushi Kabuto, who was good at handling chores, was left behind, as was Naruto, the little sun, who stayed to protect the traumatized victims. Although Naruto had the lowest level of education, he also learned farming and fortification, and had no problem with farming and increasing production.

Sasuke, Neji and Orochimaru went to Konoha, followed by the Four. They admired Orochimaru very much and were very hostile to Sasuke and Neji, not to mention the unwillingness to be defeated, which still lingered in their hearts and could not be dispelled.

"Sasuke." Black Zetsu and White Zetsu appeared from the corner, glanced at him and smiled. "Orochimaru is a traitor to Akatsuki."

"He is my subordinate now." Sasuke looked proud. What's wrong with that?

"Of course that's no problem."

"Excuse me, please help me find some information about the Sand Village."

Orochimaru's expression changed slightly. Did Sasuke instigate someone from Akatsuki to rebel?

"What do you need to know?"

"Kazekage, Shukaku's location, and basic information."

The information was readily available, and Black Zetsu quickly rattled it off. But in his heart, he was thinking about that brat Sasuke, who had already started to have ideas about Sand Village before he even went to Konoha.

"Uncle Hei, keep an eye on Xiao's movements."

"Okay, be careful when you go to Konoha." Black Zetsu replied with a smile. The little Uchiha is so naive.

Orochimaru had many guesses in his mind, but he didn't ask any more questions. He was very curious about the forces behind Sasuke, or the forces left by Uchiha in the outside world.

[As expected of a wealthy family, they have left a lot of ways out. 】

On the way to Konoha, the group felt as if they were in a secluded path. The road twisted and turned, extending like a maze. The surrounding scenery was quiet and mysterious, with tall and dense trees that blocked out the sun, giving people a sense of seclusion and tranquility.

Passing through a rugged area covered with moss and weeds, every step needs to be taken carefully to avoid slipping or tripping. Occasionally there are streams flowing along the way, the water is gurgling and clear. The water jumps between the stones, forming small waterfalls, like a natural movement.

"Let's cook." Ningji looked at the water sources around him and saw fish under the small waterfall.

"Go catch two fish each, and bring back some firewood. If you encounter any game, hunt it." Sasuke instructed the four people over there, and they formed a seal and used an earth escape technique to build two earth stoves.

The four looked at Orochimaru and immediately left. Ningji took out an iron pot to boil water, washed rice and steamed it, while Sasuke went to look for edible mushrooms and wild vegetables, and soon got a pile of food.

Today, Neji was the chef, preparing a pot of braised fish, a pot of mushroom and fish soup, and a roasted chicken. The aroma of the dishes stunned Orochimaru and the other four.

Which good ninja goes out to play like this?

Not only did you bring an iron pan, but you also brought so many seasonings?

Where are your weapons? Where are your detonators? You don't even have any with you?

They watched and complained, but no one was polite. Soon, the seven of them were full. Ningji also packed up the remaining fish soup and planned to use it for noodles in the evening.

"Sasuke will cook tomorrow, and you will cook the day after tomorrow." Neji packed up his things and glanced at the four people.

"..."

"..."

"Wouldn't it be better to eat Bingliang Wan?" Tayuya complained in a low voice. What kind of food is this? Pretentious.

"Okay, you guys eat the Bingliang Pills." Ningji had no objection. Who wanted them to eat together?

Orochimaru's eyebrows jumped. Was he trying to stir up a conflict between him and the two? Orochimaru glanced at the four people coldly and smiled at them gently. "I'll cook dinner tonight. They'll eat the soldiers' pills."

These four idiots don't deserve to eat the food I cook.

The four Sound Ninjas who were given a cold look: ???

— Konoha Village —

The Third Hokage sat in his office, feeling extremely heavy-hearted. Seven years ago, Tsunade and Jiraiya left, and there was no news from them since then. He sent a message hoping that they would come back to serve as Hokage, but Jiraiya only said that it was not appropriate, and Tsunade no longer responded to his message.

After carefully considering Konoha's current situation, he felt exhausted. Kakashi's generation could do it, but they were too young and their deterrent power was not enough.

"Hokage, there is no one to succeed you."

A clear young voice suddenly appeared: "Didn't you do it yourself?"

The Third Hokage was startled, and the glass in the office shattered loudly. Then there were loud bangs and falling sounds, and three Anbu fell silently on the tiles.

The young man in the lead was an Uchiha, and the Third Hokage recognized him as Sasuke. Behind him was Orochimaru and his five subordinates, one of whom was a Byakugan.

"If anyone could compete for the position of Hokage, he would be killed or disabled by you, and now you lament that there is no one to succeed him?" Sasuke sneered, his dark eyes full of interest.

"Sasuke, I don't know what you have heard outside. Many rumors are not true." The Third Hokage looked like he was deceived and fooled into seeking revenge on Konoha.

"I don't know much about Konoha, but Orochimaru and the people who live here must know, right?" Sasuke was not fooled by such simple words, and he directly retorted. "The once famous Konoha White Fang committed suicide. Was his psychological endurance too weak?"

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

Seeing the Hokage's office being attacked, the newly arrived ninjas fell silent, including a ninja with silver hair and a broom head.

"There were many strong men in the Uchiha clan who died on the battlefield. Many eyes disappeared without a trace and appeared in someone's hands. For you, if you don't like someone or think they are a threat, just send them on a mission that means they will die."

"There's no such thing." The third generation's face looked ugly. He wanted to take action but found that it was Uchiha Itachi who was staring at him from the angle of the tree.

Itachi, who was despised by his younger brother and told to get out, could only follow from a distance. He was worried that Sasuke would come to Konoha alone to cause trouble, and was afraid that his naive younger brother would be fooled and calculated by the Konoha high-level officials.

"Do you want to say that there is evidence? The current population of your Sarutobi clan is the largest among the Konoha ninja clans. This is the best evidence!" Sasuke is not here to reason today, he is here to collect his debt.

Instantly, Sarutobi Hiruzen was stared at by everyone with dark eyes. This kind of thing where the Hokage arranged for others to die and saved the lives of his own family members affected everyone's interests.

Why is it that so many people in our clan have died, but your Sarutobi family is so well off?

Isn't it just that there is a Hokage who abuses his power for personal gain?

——At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen became disgraceful in everyone's mind.
