Chapter 223
Chapter 223
Does Jiraiya still know to be ashamed?
Orochimaru was stunned for a few seconds, always thinking that with Jiraiya’s character that can draw the attention of the public from always doing perverted things.
The word ashamed was not supposed to be in his dictionary.
I have to apologize later…
He thought to himself, and then looked towards Akabane.
Food and comics.
He hasn’t read the comics update today, but after looking at the previous plot, he can guess practically what will happen, so he is not in a hurry to read it.
But he likes food.
Orochimaru picked up the food and asked as he ate it, “There must be something you need. Jiraiya also left. So what’s your motive?”
“I want to make a frog meat hot pot tonight, so I want to ask your snake to help me do it and help me catch some frogs, bullfrogs and the like.”
Akabane rubbed his hands.
Frog meat hot pot?
Orochimaru was stunned for a moment, then stuffed a few mouthfuls into his mouth, and then made a hand sign with both hands, quickly summoning a bunch of small summoned snakes.
The summoned snakes possessed higher intelligence than ordinary snakes. He squatted down to communicate with these snakes. Not long afterwards, these snakes scattered from the cracks in the rock and left.
“No problem, they will stun the prey, and then I will send a shadow clone to collect it.”
Orochimaru sat down and continued to eat, and at the same time picked up the comic and started reading.
The plot did not surprise him, and ‘he’ went out of the village to do bad things again. The first time he saw “himself” doing bad things, Orochimaru was a little uncomfortable, but now he doesn’t care at all.
It’s not myself anyway.
Moreover, the content of this volume seems to explain the reason why “Orochimaru” has evolved from a Hokage disciple to its present appearance.
Was due to War, Death and also the pursuit of Eternal Life and immortality.
Orochimaru glanced at it, then silently closed the page.
With the food and comic sent and his request, all achieved, Akabane got up and was about to leave. But at this time, Orochimaru stopped him: “Akabane, if the teacher didn’t allow me to do research in the light, would I become like the person in the comics?”
“No one knows what will happen in life as we grow old, but for the ‘Orochimaru’ in the comic, if it weren’t for the death of Nawaki, if it weren’t for this incident, the ‘Orochimaru’ inside might not have become what he was afterwards.”
Nawaki is Orochimaru’s discipline.
From the comics, it can be seen that Nawaki is very respectful to Orochimaru, and almost as a direct disciple of his, Orochimaru instilled all his efforts in training him.
That’s why his death hit Orochimaru very hard.
Humans are too fragile.
After Orochimaru heard it, he sank into contemplation, he had a very strange feeling. The characters and goals of ‘Orochimaru’ in the comic were very similar to him. It was simply another direction in life.
of course……
He doesn’t think he will become that kind of person.
Currently, Konoha now supports him in studying various ninjutsu. He has teachers and elders who value him, as well as a group of companions who have a good relationship with him. There is no reason to betray the village as a betrayal.
As for human experiments.
Although Ninjutsu development cannot be completed accurately and quickly, if you have a relatively sound development system, many Ninjutsu developments are definitely much better than one person’s efforts.
“Then I will go back first.”
Akabane waved.
The frog meat is already in place, and he doesn’t want to stay in the dimly lit laboratory.
Fortunately, the institute will be open in a few days, so there will be no need to go here every day.
Even though he is sorry Danzo, who was waiting for his food to be delivered, it’s not his problem anymore as any Anbu can do it in his stead!
“For the frog meat hot pot, you have to prepare a portion for me. And since my hand is currently full of work, you and Tsunade can eat the meat.”
Although he doesn’t know what the flavour of the frog meat hot pot is, if a person as lazy as Akabane will work hard to let him prepare it, the flavour will certainly not be too bad.
Even people like Orochimaru are curious about what it tastes like.
“cough, cough, what are you talking about, I just want to eat it, not because I want to invite someone or something, but since you have said that, I will ask Tsunade to come and eat too.”
Akabane said shamelessly.
Hearing it, Orochimaru had his eyes empty.
Obviously, this guy himself planned to ask Tsunade, but now he is stuck on him.
Forget it.
Orochimaru slightly shook his head, too lazy to care about these little things.
There is a hot pot, how can there be no alcohol or drinks?
Coke and beer are not available, but many families in Konoha make their own fruit wine.
For example, Senju Clan’s mead.
So he went to the Senju Clan, and it was not easy to see Tsunade through Uzumaki Mito, and when he told her that he wanted the Senju Clan’s mead, he also invited her to come for dinner.
[Note: Mead: Is an alcoholic beverage created by fermenting honey with water.]
Tsunade didn’t refuse-especially when she heard that Akabane was going to cook by himself, even Uzumaki Mito had to participate.
To ensure the deliciousness of the food, Akabane went to the Nara clan with Tsunade to get some spices, and went to the forest to pick some mushrooms and wild vegetables.
In short, the life of an afternoon is relatively boring.
Towards the evening, Orochimaru brought its prey to the store.
A large basket of fleshy frogs, all of them fat and delicious, but behind him, he saw Jiraiya following Orochimaru.
Akabane looked at him strangely, staring at Jiraiya and asking, “Would you not feel guilty when you eat this?”
“No, the frog and the toad are not the same things.”
Jiraiya answered like it was normal, and when he looked at the frogs, he was also very excited.
Frog meat hot pot, I can’t wait to eat it!
Not only that, but he also volunteered and said: “How to deal with these frogs, I will help you.”
“Um…you can also.”
Akabane always felt strange in his heart.
This guy took the initiative too much. Even if he wants to eat, how can he be so excited? but there is no reason to refuse free labour, so he readily agreed.
He showed him how to deal with it. Jiraiya is familiar with the frog and quickly mastered how to bisects it. And his high efficiency is jaw-dropping.
While slaughtering, he said in pieces over there: “Die Gamabunta, I will slaughter you, slaughter you, slaughter you!”
Everyone pretended not to hear him and silently mourned for Jiraiya in their hearts.
Although Gamabunta was not as old as his later generations, and was still relatively young from an age, bullying Jiraiya was more than enough. And from what Jiraiya mumbled while dissecting the frog, it is estimated that when he was training on Mount Myoboku, he should have been bullied by it. No doubts about it.
“By the way, what do you eat on Mount Myoboku?”
Tsunade was curious.
The natural energy of the Wet Bone Forest is very corrosive, so she has not been to the Wet Bone Forest until now, and the only person who has actually been to the three holy places is Jiraiya.
When Jiraiya heard this, his face collapsed and he cried and said, “Don’t mention it, it’s something like a nightmare.”
“After a while, you will have the opportunity to eat it in the village. Recently, the toads have done business with Konoha.”
Akabane is dealing with raw materials.
Orochimaru, who heard it, was a bit interested. He was very strange. He wanted to try everything he hadn’t tried, especially the things that Jiraiya was afraid of.
After a lot of hard work, Akabane made a pot of imperfect hot pot base material-many ingredients that can not be found on Konoha can only be replaced with similar ones.
Although there are similar ones, they have different tastes. Still not very authentic.
The fragrance gradually diffused and drifted from the forest.
“It seems that our arrival is just right, as we can already start eating the moment we come.”
Uzumaki Mito came slowly.
With Orochimaru and Jiraiya present, she looks elegant and luxurious when walking, and her voice is gentle, which is completely different from usual when she was talking with him.
“Someone secretly makes a big meal without telling his teacher. It seems that this incompetent teacher has done a lot of bad things, which makes someone very disgusted.”
Danzo sneered and walked out from behind Uzumaki Mito.
“Cough cough, Danzo, we are already here, don’t care so much.”
The Third Hokage put out the smoke.
Two uninvited guests…
Akabane glanced at the prepared ingredients, and then couldn’t help but glance at Orochimaru.
With that much, it should be enough for two or three people.
“Teacher, Uncle Danzo, sit here.”
Tsunade immediately spread a piece of cloth, widening the clean area.
A group of seven people sat down around the stone pot.
Danzo only had one eye intact, so the posture of looking at things was a bit strange. He tilted his head and saw Akabane pouring frog meat into the red soup in the stone pot.
“This smell is too strong, how did you make this kind of thing?”
He frowned slightly.
“Teacher, if you eat clear soup in a hot pot, it will become tastier. Also, it tastes better if it is spicy.”
Akabane squatted down as he explained.
The fire was not big enough. He glanced at it and poked Jiraiya and said, “When you return, you can get some toad oil from Mount Myoboku. If you have that stuff, it will be much faster and easier to burn things.”
“Huh, that’s true.”
Jiraiya also nodded, and immediately noted this.
“Toad oil? I have some on my side.”
Hiruzen took out a sealed scroll, and after it got released, he took out a bottle of toad oil.
“Great.”
With the help of toad oil, the fire underneath quickly increased, and it didn’t take long for the stone pot to boil completely.
Orochimaru took a look, and immediately stretched out his chopsticks: “I’m not afraid of toxins, let’s try the poison first.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll try it first.”
Akabane also stretched out his chopsticks.
None of them is stupid, except for Jiraiya, everyone else moved in an instant, and in an instant, most of the meat in the pot was shed out.
Jiraiya, who was the last to move, had his mouth wide open as he looked at the pot that was full of meat a second ago, cleaned out!
Then he looked at his teacher and Danzo. All of them have their bowl of meat that was sizzling hot, but there is more than one frog meat in their bowl, especially Uzumaki Mito. Regardless of the hotness and spiciness, they eat the most.
“So spicy, but delicious!”
Danzo ate a few mouthfuls and drank a sip or two of mead to suppress the spicy flavour.
“Hidden Sand Village is about to overthrow the Land-of-Birds, but we can eat hot pot here. This kind of life is not easy…”
Hiruzen ate “slowly” while feeling a little bit emotional.
“Monkey, don’t bring these things to the table. Let’s have a private dinner.”
Uzumaki Mito glanced at him, and then said grimly, “Look at you, how can you eat as much meat as you want, you even grab all of Jiraiya’s serving.”
“This… yes, yes, Jiraiya, come here, I will give it to you…”
“Thank you, teacher, thank you Mito-sama.”
Jiraiya wants to cry.
Although Mito Uzumaki was the one who stole the most, if it weren’t for her seniority, Hiruzen would never spit out the meat out of his bowl.
“Isn’t there more here? What are you grabbing?”
Danzo skillfully poured a second bowl of frog meat into the pot, and added vegetables such as wild vegetables and mushrooms.
In such a short time, he has realized how to eat hot pot.
Drinking mead, sitting on the hot pot, life is beautiful-there are a few more people who are quick and fast, who love to grab food.
Akabane felt a little regretful in his heart.
Because it is spicier, it’s not very suitable for the Third Hokage and Danzo taste, but they like to eat them, so they drink most of the mead.
So It didn’t take long for the two of them to abandon all restraint, which was obviously different from usual.
There was not enough frog meat. So the Third Hokage jumped into the nearby river and caught a few fish. While Danzo used a brushless brush to dissect the fish to remove its scales and add ingredients to the pot.
It wasn’t until dusk that everyone was completely satisfied.
