Naruto: Konoha's Kanpu

Chapter 693: Minato Vs. Orochimaru

Coming back to Konoha, there are a lot of things that Orochimaru wants to do, such as visiting his teacher, Hiruzen, greeting his former comrade, Danzo, or going to the taboo data room at Hokage Tower to see if Konoha has developed a new Forbidden Technique.

But considering that only his clone came in, Orochimaru dispelled those messy thoughts.

Going all the way along the sewer, the white snake turned around and came to Orochimaru’s mansion.

Of course, the mansion at this time has been reclaimed by Konoha. Although it is cleaned regularly, it is already an empty house, deserted and miserable.

The little white snake opened its mouth, and the wet Orochimaru crawl out with difficulty.

Although he has not returned for many years, Orochimaru still remembers the situation of the streets near his home. With a sneer of unknown meaning at the corner of his mouth, he walks along the street lights under the moonlight like a lonely ghost, all the way to Minato’s house.

“This is it.”

Orochimaru looked at a small second-floor apartment a hundred meters away, then turned around and slowly disappeared into the darkness.

Although this house looks nothing special, his keen perception allowed Orochimaru to spot Anbu, who is guarding in the vicinity, in advance.

‘It seems that I can only go down the sewer.’

Transforming into a small white snake, Orochimaru went along the smelly sewer and got out of the toilet in Minato’s house.

The small white snake swam out of the toilet, climbed up the stairs to the second floor, and slithered towards the master bedroom after making a decision.

And the moment the small white snake climbed up to the second floor, Minato, who was already asleep, suddenly opened his blue eyes.

Whoosh!

An invisible ring-shaped air wave slowly exploded on the bed, and Minato had disappeared from the bed.

‘Huh?’

The small white snake was halfway up when it suddenly noticed the sound of wind coming from above. When it looked up, it saw Minato descending from above while holding a kunai.

Looking past Minato, the small white snake saw a strangely shaped special kunai inserted on the ceiling of the corridor.

‘The Flying Thunder God Technique’s coordinates are actually placed in such a place.’

The small white snake had no time to dodge, so it opened its mouth and spat out a wet Orochimaru.

Ding!

“It’s you…”

Minato cut the white snake in half, but his eyes are locked at the feminine man in front of him, “Orochimaru!”

“Don’t rush to take action, I have no malicious intentions.” Orochimaru stretched out his tongue to lick the mucus off his face, but his golden vertical pupils stared at him unblinkingly, with fear and desire in his eyes. ‘Perhaps, reincarnating into Minato would also be a good choice.’

“Tell me your intention.” Minato looked at Orochimaru with a calm face, and realized that the other side is just a clone, so he didn’t take action immediately.

Orochimaru grinned: “I want to exchange some information with you.”

Minato frowned slightly, and said solemnly: “I will not do any business with the village’s Missing-nin!”

“Even if it is related to your most trusted subordinates, do you want to refuse?” Orochimaru said playfully.

Minato raised his kunai: “If that's all you want to say, then…”

“Wait a minute!”

Orochimaru’s face twitched. Minato’s character is really different from what Orochimaru thought, so he could only said coldly, “The information I want to trade with you is about Gekko Kanpū, as Yondaime Hokage, I think you will be interested.”

“No, I’m not interested.”

After saying that, Minato had already turned into an afterimage and came behind Orochimaru, with a backstab piercing towards his back.

‘As expected of the Yellow Flash!’

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes, and and his thin body twisted like a snake. While avoiding being hit at vital point, he grabs Minato’s head with his backhand, and said with a smile: “You actually trust your subordinates so much… You are a good boss, but you are not a qualified Kage!”

Minato bent down to avoid Orochimaru's grab, and then kicked him hard.

Orochimaru bends his knees to block it, and jumps back with the force from Minato’s kick.

At this moment, Minato suddenly disappeared, leaving only a ring-shaped invisible air wave in place.

Orochimaru turned his head abruptly and saw Minato swooping down from above.

‘Hmph!’

In mid-air, Orochimaru with a smile on his mouth formed hand seals: “Hidden Shadow Snake Hands!”

Several yellow-scaled snakes shot out from his sleeves, biting towards Minato while hissing.

Minato threw a shuriken with his backhand and cut all these yellow-scaled snakes into two pieces, and the smell of blood quickly spread around.

Landing lightly, Orochimaru jumped back and quickly distanced himself from Minato, and then softly said with a smile: “Does Yondaime really wants to fight with me here?”

Minato subconsciously glanced at Naruto’s room.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes, and said with a smile: “That’s your child’s room? Hehehehe. Once a Shinobi has a child, they will have a weakness. Yondaime, there will be a day when you die because of your weakness.”

Minato didn't want to continue talking nonsense with Orochimaru. He took out a special kunai, and prepared to turn into Yellow Flash to end Orochimaru’s clone in front of him.

Orochimaru looked at it, quickly changed the subject, and said: “Since Yondaime does not welcome me so much, then I will make a long story short… Gekko Kanpū, like me, has betrayed Konoha!”

Minato’s face changed slightly: “Impossible!”

“Regarding me joining Akatsuki, Konoha should have already know this, right?”

Orochimaru admired Minato’s expression, and said with a wide smile, “And Gekko Kanpū has joined an organization that is even more mysterious than Akatsuki.”

Minato was startled: ‘Abyss?’

He looked Orochimaru with weird gaze: ‘That’s it?’

Orochimaru felt that Minato’s reaction was a little weird. Just about to say a few more words, the door not far away suddenly exploded with a bang. Amidst the flying sawdust, Kushina charged forward, then threw a punch that pierced Orochimaru’s stomach.

Bang!

Orochimaru, who was fatally wounded, turned into smoke and disappeared with a bang.

“Minato, are you okay?” Kushina turned around and looked at Minato nervously.

Minato shook his head and said with a smile: “It’s okay, Kushina, you should go to sleep after such a busy day. Let me take care of the rest here.”

“But…”

Kushina wanted to say something more, but facing Minato’s blue pupils, she could only yawn in the end, then she turned around and went back to the room to sleep.

……

At the same time.

In a jungle twenty kilometers away from Konoha, Orochimaru, who is hiding in a tree hole, slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes are full of doubts.

After telling Minato the information of Kanpū joining Abyss, Orochimaru had envisioned Minato’s various reactions, such as shock, unbelief, doubtful, or other reactions, but he didn’t expect that…

Orochimaru closed his eyes and carefully recalled the look of Minato’s face before: ‘Surprised? Disdain? Dumbfounded? He seems to have it all.’

‘That expression…Does he already know that Kanpū joined Abyss?’

‘If so…’

Orochimaru suddenly thought of an important point!

‘Sanbi!’

‘In the Land of Water, Sanbi’s Jinchuriki was indeed snatched away by Kanpū, so where is this Jinchuriki now?’

‘If it is in Konoha, can it be concluded that Konoha is the headquarters of Abyss?’

‘Then, doesn’t that mean that Minato is the boss of the Abyss?’

Orochimaru just feels that his thought is absurd.

As the Kage of the strongest Shinobi Villages in the Shinobi World, how can Minato be the boss of Abyss?

Orochimaru frowned tightly. He looked up towards Konoha under the moonlight, and he could vaguely see the sparse faint lights. At this time, the originally calm, peaceful, and prosperous village looked like a dormant ferocious wild beast hiding under the leaves!

‘It seems that I have to enter Konoha again! ‘Orochimaru squinted his eyes, shining brightly.
