"I just have some doubts and would like to ask Mu Yue-jun for advice." Orochimaru stood up and said with a faint smile on his face.
Orochimaru would certainly not talk directly to Mu Yue about the Root in public, and Orochimaru did have some questions he wanted to ask Mu Yue.
Mu Yue nodded and followed Orochimaru, and walked with Orochimaru to a remote and deserted place next to the camp.
"Danzo should have told you what you need to do here." After walking to a big tree, Orochimaru stopped and turned to look at Mu Yue.
The relationship between Orochimaru and Danzo Shimura is somewhat complicated.
In name, Orochimaru can even be considered a subordinate of Danzo Shimura because he holds a position in the Root.
But in fact, Orochimaru and Danzo Shimura have an equal relationship, and both sides can be said to be collaborators.
They have many collaborations, including human experiments to study Hashirama's cells and research on forbidden techniques.
However, their most important collaboration at the moment is the position of the Fourth Hokage.
Although Danzo Shimura really wants to become the Fourth Hokage himself, he is not stupid. Given the current circumstances, it is almost impossible for him to become the Fourth Hokage.
Danzo Shimura mastered the Wood Release Ninja, but his Wood Release Ninja was too young and had not yet grown up, and he did not obtain the Rinnegan and the Ninja Clan inheritance.
For Danzo Shimura, becoming Hokage himself is the best development, but if this path is not feasible, then Danzo Shimura will only have one choice left, and that is his partner Orochimaru.
The other two popular candidates for Hokage have an average relationship with Danzo Shimura. If they are allowed to become Hokage, it may affect Danzo Shimura's existing power in Konoha.
But Orochimaru is different. Orochimaru has a deep cooperative relationship with Danzo Shimura. If what they have done were to be exposed, it would be enough to ruin both of their reputations in Konoha.
In other words, they are on the same boat, and no one dares to betray the other easily because they both have too much evidence against each other.
Therefore, Danzo Shimura could rest assured and fully support Orochimaru to become the Fourth Hokage.
Once Orochimaru comes to power, given the relationship between them, Danzo Shimura will definitely be able to gain greater power than he does now.
After all, if Orochimaru dares to say that I am the Hokage, then Danzo Shimura really has the ability to make Orochimaru regret it.
"I will do my best to assist Lord Orochimaru in achieving military merit." Mu Yue replied calmly.
"With the help of such an outstanding ninja like Mu Yue-kun, the harvest this time should be considerable." Orochimaru praised generously.
"But it's really surprising. I didn't expect that there is a genius like you, Mu Yuejun, in the Root." Orochimaru looked at Mu Yue with curiosity.
It's not that Orochimaru looks down on the Root, but that's the fact. There are only talents in the Root, no geniuses.
Because Sarutobi Hiruzen would not allow a true genius to go to the Root, Orochimaru could see that Sarutobi Hiruzen had been consciously controlling the overall power of the Root.
"Lord Orochimaru, you are too kind. When it comes to genius, you, one of the three great ninjas, are the real genius." Mu Yue said in a business-like manner.
Mu Yue has always been very self-aware. Apart from the sealing technique, which he mostly cultivated on his own, his other abilities were basically obtained by cheating.
The reason why he was able to develop the ultimate Fire Style like Fire Dragon Dance was not because Mu Yue had a good talent for Fire Style, but because Mu Yue obtained perfect-level fire attribute chakra property changes and a large number of mastery-level Fire Style from the system. The memories of Mu Yue's Fire Style training in his mind could be said to be countless.
The same goes for breathing methods. Mu Yue was able to develop new breathing methods because he was already extremely proficient in breathing methods. As long as he was willing to work hard and spend time, it would not be difficult to develop a similar breathing method.
"I don't think so. At least you have surpassed me in the development of bloodline limits. After all, I have not successfully cultivated bloodline limits." Orochimaru said, shaking his head slightly.
Orochimaru was willing to spend so much time studying various ninjutsu and forbidden techniques. Of course, he had studied bloodline limits, especially wood escape, on which Orochimaru spent a lot of time.
However, rather than saying that Orochimaru was studying Wood Release, it would be more accurate to say that Orochimaru was studying the vitality of Hashirama's cells.
Rather than the power of Wood Release, Orochimaru hopes to obtain the huge vitality in Hashirama's cells, because ninjas are too fragile.
"Mr. Mu Yue, I wonder if I can see your ice escape?" Orochimaru said after thinking for a while.
Orochimaru is not very interested in ice escape, but he is quite interested in Mu Yue who has mastered ice escape.
Mu Yue nodded in agreement, condensed chakra in her palm and then transformed it into ice-attribute chakra and released it all.
"Freeze ray!"
A blue-white light shot out, instantly freezing a small area next to Orochimaru
.
Orochimaru clapped his hands twice, "I am looking forward to your performance on the battlefield, Mu Yue-kun."
Orochimaru remembered that Mu Yue was good at five kinds of ninjutsu and could combine various ninjutsu to increase their power. Even the ice escape technique he had just learned not long ago was at such a level. Orochimaru was a little curious about the power of the ninjutsu that Mu Yue was good at.
......
In order to help the disciples get used to the days without a teacher leading the team, Mu Yue quickly arranged a B-level war mission for them to investigate a village suspected of being haunted by the three-member Mist Hidden Team.
Since the main body was free, Mu Yue did not send out the shadow clone to follow. He just followed directly with the main body and let the shadow clone stay in the camp.
Of course, in order to prevent accidents, Mu Yue left a Flying Thunder God Kunai in his shadow clone, so that even if an emergency occurred, he would be able to find out in time and rush back quickly.
"There are six villages in total. Should we split up? Two people in a group, it will be faster this way." Obito made a suggestion after listening to Kakashi's explanation of the mission.
It would be faster if four people acted separately, but even Obito would not dare to be so reckless on the battlefield. It would be okay for him, Kakashi, Shisui and the others, but it would be difficult if Nohara Rin encountered the enemy.
"This is not safe. If you want to complete the task quickly, then move faster." Kakashi rejected Obito's proposal.
If Mu Yue was there, Kakashi would agree, because Mu Yue's Flying Thunder God could provide quick support, but they don't have such good conditions now.
They don't even have sensory ninjas now, so if their companions encounter the enemy, it is difficult for them to know at the first time.
Although some aspects of the Transparent World's abilities are similar to the Byakugan, its range is far inferior to that of the Byakugan and it cannot serve as a perception ninjutsu.
Moreover, Kakashi's physical strength does not support Kakashi using the Transparent World as a perception ninjutsu, which is his trump card in battle.
"Safety is the most important thing on the battlefield," Nohara Lin agreed.
"We can use shadow clones. Obito and I can each create a shadow clone to investigate the villages other than our main body. This can improve efficiency." Shisui thought for a while and said.
Maintaining the condition on the battlefield is also a very important thing, so Shisui took the initiative to suggest that he and Obito use Shadow Clones, because their chakra is much ahead of Kakashi and Nohara Rin.
"That's fine." Kakashi agreed to Shisui's proposal after a little thought.
Since it is a war B-level mission, it is almost certain to encounter the enemy, and using the shadow clone to collect intelligence is a good choice.
Feeling that Shisui helped him save face, Obito put his arm around Shisui's shoulder with a smile on his face, and believed that it was necessary to form a united front with Shisui against Kakashi, as Shisui did have what he lacked.
Next, Shisui and Obito each created a shadow clone to investigate other villages, while their real bodies followed Kakashi and Nohara Rin to investigate.
Faced with the ninjas from their country's official great ninja village, the villagers of course told them everything they knew and reported all the suspicious people they had seen in the past few days.
As Kakashi and the others were investigating the second village, a memory of a battle with the Hidden Mist ninja appeared in Shisui's mind.
"They are in Tanashita Village. There is probably a leading jonin and two chuunins. Obito's shadow clone is still delaying time." Shisui said quickly organizing his words.
His shadow clone was cancelled by the shadow clone itself, with the purpose of letting the original body know the information over there.
Although they are quite powerful, it is wishful thinking for them to defeat a team of jonin with just two shadow clones. The real bodies must participate in the battle.
"Hurry up." Kakashi gave the order immediately, and then rushed out first.
But a team of this strength is a piece of cake for them now.
Except for Nohara Rin, anyone in their team has the ability to defeat an ordinary jonin head-on.
Although Nohara Rin cannot defeat a jonin by force, she has no problem protecting herself and has powerful auxiliary abilities.
In other words, the actual combat strength of their four-man team is three jonin plus one special medical jonin.
After the Kirigakure ninja found out that the Konoha ninja they killed was actually a shadow clone, they immediately wanted to retreat, but Kakashi used the Lightning Breathing to its fullest speed and turned into a beam of lightning to block the three Kirigakure ninjas.
Although Kakashi looked like a rookie ninja who had graduated not long ago, his appearance was too cool and the Mist Village jonin did not dare to underestimate him.
Hearing the sound of people hurrying from behind, the Kirigakure jonin frowned, and without caring about Kakashi's performance just now, he immediately launched an attack on Kakashi.
"Get rid of him quickly, there are Konoha ninjas behind us." The Kirigakure Jonin threw out the shuriken and ordered two of his subordinates to attack Kakashi.
Although he was very anxious, the rich experience of the Kirigakure jonin told him that now was not the time to be anxious. If he rushed forward himself and was killed by Kakashi because of misjudging his strength, his two subordinates would definitely die.
On the contrary, if his two subordinates could find out some information about Kakashi, then he still had hope of counterattacking and escaping.
Two Kirigakure ninjas rushed out together, one used water-style ninjutsu to spit out a stream of water and rushed towards Kakashi, while the other drew the long sword from behind and slashed at Kakashi.
"Flash!"
Kakashi concentrated his breathing to increase his strength, and all the chakra gathered in his legs was transformed into lightning chakra and released in one breath. Finally, he pulled out the White Fang short blade and swung it forward.
Swish!
Kakashi disappeared from the spot, and the Mist Shadow Ninja who rushed towards him with a knife burst into blood. The shuriken and ninjutsu of the Mist Shadow Ninja all fell on the open space where Kakashi had stood before.
"What a fast speed and slashing blow!" The pupils of the Kirigakure Jonin shrank suddenly. He didn't expect that Kakashi could kill someone while dodging the attack.
"Wait, this guy looks like the most powerful genius in Konoha, Hatake Kakashi!"
Looking at Kakashi's white hair and the lightning on his body, the Kirigakure Jonin finally came up with Kakashi's name.
Before the war, the Hidden Mist Village distributed the information about Konoha's geniuses who passed the Chunin Exam to the Hidden Mist members, increasing their priority. If they encountered any of them, they would give priority to killing those young geniuses.
And Kakashi Hatake was the most dazzling genius among them. After all, he defeated everyone and fought to the end.
"A guy who was taking part in the Chunin Exam last year has this kind of strength now?" The Kirigakure Jonin was shocked.
At first he thought Kakashi would be like Yagura Karuta, who looked young but was actually just short and had a baby face, but now it seems that he is a real young genius.
The Kirigakure jonin ran to the side without hesitation.
Although there is hope of winning, he does not want to fight a battle in which there is a high probability of death, and Kakashi's teammates are still on the way.
"Fire Style: Phoenix Claw Red!"
Several kunai with flames attached were shot rapidly towards the direction where the Kirigakure jonin were retreating, forcing the Kirigakure jonin to stop.
The Kirigakure Jonin turned his head and saw a boy who looked even younger than Kakashi standing not far away, breathing slightly and still throwing a kunai.
"The ninja I just met." Thinking of Obito's face again, the Kirigakure Jonin was speechless. Did he meet Konoha's genius team? The team was full of geniuses.
"Illusionary Body Instant Technique!"
Facing the enemy, Shisui had no intention of showing mercy. He directly opened the three-magatama Sharingan and performed the illusion and instant body movement technique to fight the enemy.
At this moment, Kakashi killed another Kirigakure Chunin in an instant with an extremely sharp slash and quickly rushed to Shisui to help.
When Obito and Nohara Rin arrived, the Kirigakure jonin was already seriously injured. Before Obito could make any move, Kakashi killed the Kirigakure jonin with one sword.
"Almost!" Obito scratched his hair unwillingly. If he was faster, he would have caught up.
In fact, Obito could have been faster, but he was worried that Nohara Rin would be in danger if she traveled alone, so he didn't keep too much distance between him and Nohara Rin.
"Mission successfully completed, go back." Kakashi said decisively.
Kakashi was traveling at full speed and fighting the enemy with all his strength, and most of his chakra and physical strength had been consumed, so he wanted to go back as soon as possible, otherwise they would be short of combat power when they encountered the enemy.
Obito could only walk back to the camp with a bitter face. He originally wanted to defeat Kakashi, but in the end he didn't even have a chance to show off.
This mission made Obito realize one thing: sometimes speed is really important.
The disciples were safe and sound, so Mu Yue also went back with them.
Seeing Mu Yue leaving, the hidden Jue revealed his figure.
"This guy's desire to protect is too much. He has to protect him secretly even when he is carrying out a B-level mission." Jue was a little bit troubled. This made it inconvenient for them to carry out their plan.
