MTL - Orochimaru’s Magic Lamp

  Chapter 20 Unwilling

  The next day, the sky was twilight.

  In the courtyard, there was a rhythmic breathing sound.

   "Hoo..."

"suck…"

   "Hoo..."

  …

   Every once in a while, the direction of the wind in the yard changes, and the branches and leaves of the big trees are sometimes pulled and sometimes blown.

   This situation lasted until noon, when the alarm in the house rang.

  Oshemaru released the weight on his body, stopped exercising, and returned to the house to wash off the sweat on his body.

   "The time is almost up, it's time for Fuyue to send someone."

  Oshemaru put on a clean ninja uniform, sat on a stone bench in the yard, and checked his exercise progress while waiting for someone.

  Thanks to the Dahe brand genetic medicine, his body has increased a lot of vitality, and the progress of his physical exercise is gratifying. The breathing method that he barely maintained before, "the state of constant middle", no longer needs to be deliberately controlled.

   "Unfortunately, relying solely on breathing techniques, the speed of subtly strengthening the body is too slow, even if it increases the weight."

   Orochimaru rubbed his chin, "It seems that Jiraiya's cultivation progress needs to be accelerated."

   Immortal art and breathing method are essentially the use of natural energy. If we can find a way to promote each other...

   "Boom boom boom..."

   A knock on the door interrupted Orochimaru's thinking.

   "Oshemaru-sama, it's me." The voice is Uchiha Fugaku.

   "Fu Yue, he actually came in person?"

  Oshemaru showed surprise on his face, "That's right, there is no reason why he is not impatient about the family."

  Since Uchiha's attitude is so respectful, he doesn't need to put on airs anymore.

  Oshemaru jumped lightly and jumped directly outside the courtyard, "Very good, you came on time."

  In fact, he had been waiting at the door for quite a while.

  Uchiha Fugaku nodded slightly, straight to the point, "Master Orochimaru, do you have any solution to the Uchiha problem?"

   "No rush, let's talk as we walk."

  Oshemaru pointed in the direction of the Uchiha Clan, and started to walk directly. Uchiha Fugaku was slightly startled, and had no choice but to follow.

  …

  The two did not run and jump like ninjas, but walked on the street like ordinary people.

   Along the way, passers-by, shops and merchants all paid attention to the two of them, whispered to each other, and talked a lot.

  After all, whether it is Orochimaru of the "Sannin" or Uchiha Fugaku, the captain of the guard, they are all star ninjas in the village. It is really curious to walk together suddenly.

  Especially, these two people don't have a good reputation in the village now.

   Orochimaru's face remained unchanged, and although Fu Yue had a straight face, judging from the slightly strange expression, he couldn't turn a blind eye.

   "Clan leader Fuyue, in fact, it is very easy to suppress the matter of Uchiha, as long as the third generation or other high-level officials ask for guarantees, but..."

  Oshemaru swept his gaze away, and the decibels around him suddenly dropped a notch, "Just like now, it can suppress the surface, but not the heart."

   Fu Yue's face darkened a bit, and this was also something he was worried about.

The people of the    tribe are alienated from the ninja villagers in the village because of their personalities. The relationship between the two has been at a low ebb for a long time. Now, the suspicion of the Nine-Tails Rebellion is simply worse.

   "However, Uchiha has a chance now."

  Oshemaru said bluntly, "Yunyin Village is about to move. In the near future, there will definitely be a war with Konoha."

   "Yunyin?"

   Fuyue was startled at first, and after thinking clearly about the key point, a look of joy flashed in his eyes, and then he quickly restrained himself, and his eyes returned to the ancient well.

   "Indeed, this is a good opportunity."

  Defending the village and doing meritorious deeds on the battlefield are the core values ​​of ninjas.

  Nowadays, the middle and upper classes of the village have suffered heavy losses. If Uchiha can turn the tide, maybe Uchiha can go a step further.

   "Patriarch Fuyue, I know what you're thinking."

   Orochimaru sneered slightly, "If it was before the Nine-Tails Rebellion, this method would be fine, but now, think about why the village is facing war, and why Uchiha can make meritorious deeds on the battlefield?"

   Fuyue was shocked.

  During the Nine Tails Rebellion, the ninjas in the village were massacred, and Uchiha was saved. If Uchiha took the opportunity to make meritorious deeds and improve his status during the Yunyin Ninja War, the suspicion of the family would be even greater.

   Not only that, if the credit for life and death is not recognized, but instead is criticized, the clansmen will also be resentful, and what will happen at that time is really unimaginable.

   "I think it's easy."

   Fuyue said, his voice was a bit astringent, "I don't know what method Oshemaru-sama has."

   "It's easy."

  Oshemaru said calmly, "Uchiha's participation in the war, the point is not how much credit he gets, but how much loss he suffers."

   Fu Yue blinked, puzzled at first, but then his expression gradually changed.

  He didn't care about the strength and status of the person in front of him, so he burst into anger,

   "What a cruel heart, what a vicious scheme, you want Uchiha to die?"

   "I don't mean that."

  Oshemaru didn't care about Fu Yue's attitude, and said word by word, "Because I will also participate in the battle and be responsible for the most dangerous enemy."

   "If you suffer heavy losses, I will not be able to escape. I will carefully control the limit of casualties."

"That's not OK!"

  Uchiha Fugaku's face was serious, "I am the patriarch of the Uchiha clan, how could I join forces with outsiders to harm my family."

   "Chief Fuyue, you..."

  Oshemaru was about to continue speaking, when a security team walked straight towards them, not looking like they were greeting the patriarch.

   Fuyue straightened his face again, and asked the leader of the tribe, "Jin Zhu, what happened?"

   "Patriarch, obviously we have cleaned up the ruins, but the craftsmen responsible for rebuilding the clan land have not been assigned by the village."

   Uchiha Shinsuke showed an angry look on his face, "I went to find the person in charge, and they tried to blame each other, but they just refused to be appointed."

   "Yes, some people even said that our family land is going to be relocated, and it's a waste of effort to go where now."

   "Patriarch, do we really want to change the place of our clan?"

   "..."

  In the security team, some people also heard rumors about the Hokage meeting, saying that because of the suspicion of the Kyuubi Rebellion, Uchiha was going to be driven to the edge of the village.

   This is to catch wind and shadow, but when encountering such a thing, I can't help but have doubts, and everyone is shocked and angry.

   Facing the questions from the clansmen, Fuyue remained silent, not knowing how to respond.

  At this time, Orochimaru suddenly interrupted, "Move? The village will not force Uchiha to move, and the third generation has never given such an order."

   "You guys go again and tell them exactly what I said."

   "This...is, Orochimaru...Oshemaru-sama."

   Uchiha Shinsuke froze for a moment before nodding, as if he had just seen Orochimaru.

   Thanks to "Falling C Yang" and "Feng Yu" for their rewards
