At the end of the street, Anko stood crisply beside a telephone pole, jumping and waving at Kanpū.
And a long-hair man wearing a kimono, who is crossing his hands near his chest, is also leaning on the telephone pole, and it is… 'Orochimaru!'
Kanpū's heart shuddered, 'could it be that Orochimaru has already transplanted Hashirama's cells to Danzo?
"Kanpū, what are you looking at, come here!!" Anko yelled with her hands on her hips, looking dissatisfied.
Kanpū slung his shoulders, and for the first time, he felt that it was disgusting for Anko to become Orochimaru's disciple.
Walking over slowly, Kanpū greeted lazily: "Anko, long time no see."
"What's the matter with your tone, I even brought Orochimaru-sensei to come to see you, hum." Anko said arrogantly and turned her head.
"Ah, it turns out that Orochimaru-sama is here too, what a coincidence." Kanpū smiled falsely as if he had just discovered Orochimaru.
Orochimaru chuckled lightly, and said, "Kanpū-kun doesn't seem to want to see me?"
His voice is cold and hoarse, and Kanpū felt goosebumps all over his body when he heard this.
"Orochimaru-sama felt wrong, I didn't mean that." Kanpū forced a smile.
Anko felt that the tone of the two of them was weird when they were chatting, so she hurriedly interrupted: "Kanpū, what's the matter with that nickname of yours?"
"Nickname, what nickname?"
Kanpū was startled, then his face turned black, "Could it be that you're talking about …"
"Gekko Nigeru…" Anko's expression was serious, but the smile in her eyes couldn't be hidden.
Kanpū suddenly became depressed.
'Why did this broken nickname come out from Anbu?'
'No, I'm not a great hero. Even if my nickname is a little weird, it won't be passed on to Anko, who is just a Chunin!'
A thought flashed through Kanpū's mind, 'Could it be that Orochimaru told her?'
'What is his purpose?'
When Kanpū speculated about Orochimaru with the greatest evil intent, the latter looked at Kanpū's handsome face, and couldn't help but stick out his tongue and lick his face, and then said with a soft smile: "Has Kanpū-kun offended someone? Do you want me to help?"
Kanpū came back to his senses, and immediately complained according to his intention: "Orochimaru-sama is indeed the legendary Sannin, you're so wise! In fact, I was asked by Yondaime-sama to join Anbu again some time ago. I didn't expect that not long after I joined, I would be targeted by someone! Haah~"
Orochimaru's eyes narrowed slightly, and his pale golden vertical pupils stared at Kanpū. He couldn't figure out whether Kanpū was acting or showing his true feelings.
When he heard this information from Danzo last night, Orochimaru had a heated discussion with Danzo.
Orochimaru thinks this may be a good opportunity to attack Kanpū.
But Danzo feels that this is the pit dug by Minato, and his reason is also very good. During the Third Shinobi World War, Kanpū followed Minato to fight more than once. So even if their relationship is not close, they are at least familiar. Moreover, Kanpū is the future Clan Head of Gekko Clan. Even if he won't be in Anbu for long, Minato will not spread such an obvious stupid nickname.
Danzo firmly believes that this is the pit Minato dug for him, and does not accept any rebuttal!
Orochimaru is also like Danzo and felt that something is strange, so he brought Anko to find Kanpū today, and wanted to use Anko to find out the truth.
If Kanpū was really treated unfairly in Anbu, Orochimaru would not mind opening his warm embrace to comfort Kanpū's wounded heart.
If there is something tricky behind this nickname like what Danzo said, Orochimaru doesn't mind poking it a bit.
"Kanpū, what the hell is going on?"
When Anko heard Kanpū say this, she was suddenly a little anxious. She couldn't help but pat her small chest and said, "Just tell me, my teacher is the legendary Sannin, I can definitely help you get justice!"
When he heard this, Kanpū secretly sighed in his heart: 'This silly girl…Where is her IQ?'
Kanpū glanced at her airport calmly, 'Did all the nutrition go there?'
With a light cough, Kanpū cleared up his emotions and said in a low voice: "The one who is targeting me is the Anbu Commander during Sandaime-sama's reign, Eagle!"
"Eagle?" Orochimaru's eyes were narrowed even more.
Eagle is the Anbu Commander appointed when Sandaime was in power. His identity is very mysterious, and even Orochimaru has not found out his true identity.
"Orochimaru-sama, Anko, this Eagle is not a human! Hokage has one courtier, and this Eagle is the Anbu Commander from Sandaime-sama's reign, a remnant of the old times, so Yondaime-sama intends to let me take over as the Anbu Commander. But as a result, the news was noticed by Eagle, so he made things difficult for me in order to seize power…"
Kanpū has an ugly face, his tone was low, and he seemed to bear the humiliation.
"How is it possible?"
Anko jumped, "You are so young, how could Yondaime-sama let you…"
"Hush!!"
Kanpū hurriedly grabbed Anko, motioned her to keep her voice down, and said softly, "This is a secret, don't let others know."
"Why?" Anko was puzzled.
"The identity of every Anbu Commander must be kept secret!"
Kanpū said mysteriously, "Once it gets out, it will be finished. Don't you know that?"
Anko was taken aback by Kanpū's words and looked up towards Orochimaru.
Orochimaru frowned slightly. He really couldn't tell whether Kanpū is telling the truth or not.
Logically speaking, Kanpū is still underage, and no no matter how big Minato's heart is, he can't let Kanpū serve as Anbu Commander, but it is also possible that Minato will take advantage of this rebellious psychology and appointed him as the Anbu Commander, so that no matter how much outsiders guessed, they can't guess that the new Anbu Commander would be an underage little brat.
'So… Is Kanpū lying?'
Orochimaru's thoughts revolve, then he smiled, and said: "This is not good. Eagle has served as Anbu Commander for many years. Both his connections and strength are terrifying. You can't beat him."
Kanpū sighed and said: "Even Orochimaru-sama can't do anything…"
"Of course there is a way."
Orochimaru began to lick his face excitedly, "As long as you defeat him head-on, all the gossip will disappear, and Minato will have an excuse to appoint you as the Anbu Commander."
"But I can't beat him." Kanpū sighed.
Orochimaru chuckled and said: "I can help you."
"Really? How is Orochimaru-sama going to help me?" Seeing that there was an advantage, Kanpū instantly became excited.
"The Kusanagi Sword is still in your hands, right?" Orochimaru asked.
Kanpū nodded.
"Every Kusanagi Sword has a unique ability. You should know about this, right?" Orochimaru looked at Kanpū playfully.
Kanpū was overjoyed in his heart, but he nodded calmly on the surface: "I heard about this from a friend, but I have not found its ability."
"The ability of this sword, when least expected, can kill anyone. If you master it, you have a chance to defeat Eagle head-on." Orochimaru said softly, his tone is full of temptation.
Kanpū's heart was moved: "Orochimaru-sama, please teach me!!"
Anko, who is next to him, is also full of enthusiasm. Feeling that this is a realistic version of the poor's counterattack against the rich and handsome second generation!
"This secret cannot be heard by others. If you want to know, come to me at ten o'clock in the evening."
Orochimaru slowly turned around, "Anko, let's go."
"Ah? Oh."
Anko felt a little regretful for not hearing the secret, and then smiled at Kanpū, "Then Kanpū, goodbye, I wish you to defeat that bad guy as soon as possible and become… the Commander!"
Kanpū nodded.
After seeing the two of them leave, Kanpū didn't dare to be careless and turned around and went home quickly.
'The amount of information today is a bit big.'
'First of all, Danzo. That guy tucked his right hand into his kimono. If there's no surprise, he should have already transplanted the Hashirama's cells.'
'The only person who can do this thing in Konoha is Orochimaru.'
'This shows that the relationship between Orochimaru and Danzo is still the honeymoon phase.'
'Then why did Danzo ignore me at the front, but Orochimaru threw an olive branch to me at the back?'
'Did they break up?'
'Or, what Orochimaru throws is not an olive branch, but a poisonous snake?'
Kanpū took the Kusanagi Sword from the sealing scroll.
Speaking of which, Kanpū hasn't used this sword for a long time since the war ended.
'Being invincible is so lonely!'
Kanpū pulled out half of the blade, and the cool blade looked eye-catching but not dazzling under the whitening sunlight. Kanpū touched it fondly, and only put the sword back into its sheath after a while.
'For Kusanagi sword, I have to go to Orochimaru's house tonight. Anyway, there is Flying Thunder God Technique, so there's no need to be afraid!'
...
Time passed, and around nine o'clock in the evening, Kanpū set off.
After rushing for an hour, Kanpū smoothly arrived outside Orochimaru's mansion before ten o'clock.
Going over the wall, Kanpū came to the house where he once traded with Orochimaru.
Orochimaru was sitting there, already waiting for him.
Kanpū closed the sliding door and sat down opposite Orochimaru.
"You are here, Kanpū-kun." Orochimaru opened the golden vertical pupil, his evil eye shadow showed a bit of killing-intent, and he looked at him with a faint smile.
Kanpū went straight to the point: "Orochimaru-sama, what is the ability of the Kusanagi Sword?"
Orochimaru chuckled lightly and said: "Kanpū-kun, you don't think you can get the ability of the Kusanagi Sword from me so easily, do you?"
The corners of Kanpū's mouth twitched and he said: "In order for me to become Anbu Commander, Orochimaru, please teach me!"
"I can't tell the authenticity of what you said during the day, so you need to pay a price to get this precious information." Orochimaru said.
'Since I can't tell whether Kanpū is telling the truth or not, let's go over this and let Kanpū use his actions to prove whether he is right or not!'
"What's the price?"
Kanpū said in a faint tone, 'This f**ker, why did I start a PR deal with Orochimaru again?'
"I want you… to monitor Yondaime Hokage, how about it?" Orochimaru slowly asked.
Hearing this, Kanpū's face changed slightly: "What are you going to do?"
Orochimaru said with a smile: "I suspect that my teacher, Sandaime, abdicated the position of Hokage on the surface, but secretly manipulated the power of the village from behind the scene."
Kanpū understood what's going on: "Do you suspect Yondaime-sama is a puppet?"
Orochimaru nodded: "Yes, so I want you to monitor him, how is it? Can you do it?"
Kanpū shook his head: "I can't do it, no one can monitor Yellow Flash without being discovered."
"Can't you do it with Transparent Release? "Orochimaru asked.
"Orochimaru-sama thinks too highly of Transparent Release." Kanpū sighed.
Orochimaru grinned: "Then monitor Sandaime, as the effect is the same."
Kanpū's eyebrows twitched at this moment: 'So, Orochimaru's target is Sandaime?'
'He won't come up with the Konoha Crush Plan now, right?'
