A corner of a mountain range not far from the City of Fire.

Swish!

In the depths of the jungle, which was originally empty, a black shadow suddenly flashed, but two figures suddenly appeared.

This is Yukimura and Orochimaru. They leaned against the snake wall and, at the moment when Otsutsuki Ryu's style was blocked, returned to this place they had visited before using Shishi Space Ninjutsu.

"The Flying Thunder God Technique."

After leaving the Castle of Fire, Yukimura finally unlocked the Otsutsuki Ryu-style illusion, leaned his back against the big tree behind him, and glanced around him, then he took a breath in a daze, watching him slanted to the ground.

The kunai spoke.

"Orochimaru, you actually know this trick."

"It's not considered a flying thunder god, it's just a simple flying thunder array."

Orochimaru stood up, looked around carefully, and found nothing unusual, then he looked back and explained expressionlessly.

He actually did not learn the real thunder god technique, because the thunder god technique has extremely high requirements for ninjas' talent in space ninjutsu.

Since he is not an orthodox perceptual ninja, the coordinate points he can mark are limited by distance, so his positioning of the Flying Thunder God takes time and cannot be transferred to the moving coordinates, and the consumption is much greater than that of the orthodox Flying Thunder God.

So it is not a complete flying thunder god, it is just a little stronger than the flying thunder array that only the three of them could use at the time.

Of course, even so, it was enough to escape from the City of Fire.

"But why did you put all your horns..."

Yukimura had a complicated expression, and only the two of them escaped. Kaoru was left there. His identity had been exposed. It is easy to imagine what kind of treatment he would be treated.

After recovering from the crisis-ridden environment, Yukimura began to recall the series of situations that had just happened.

The appearance of Otsutsuki Ryu, the terrible mental attack, the raid of Otsutsuki Ryu, the obstruction of Orochimaru and the escape with him.

He didn't know if this was a plan or something, but it was the only person who was taken away by Orochimaru, and Kaoru stayed there. This was an indisputable fact.

Is it because time is tight? However, Kokdo is not far from them. Orochimaru can take him with him, so he won’t have time to take Kokdo away, right?

"The reason is simple, because it is not necessary."

Orochimaru still said without emotion, Yukimura was right. In that moment of flashlight, although the time was extremely short, with Orochimaru's physique currently being replaced with, he could still take some money if he paid.

They all walked together in the upper corner.

However, he did not do this, not because he could not do it, but because he did not have the need to do it.

"Why?"

Yukimura asked in confusion.

"Because of the mantra."

Orochimaru looked at him and replied word by word, saying that the meaning was very clear.

"You mean..."

Yukimura was stunned when she heard this, and then suddenly reacted.

Orochimaru's answer reminded Yukimura of something that he almost forgot.

In order to be able to completely control the ninjas under his command, the descendants of the ninjas belonging to the Empire were set with curse seals similar to the seal of the tongue and the collection of birds in the cage. Through this curse seal, the Empire can control the freedom of subordinates and even life and death of life and death.

.

As a member of the open empire, Kakuto naturally has this thing on his body, so his life and death are also under the control of the empire.

This is why Orochimaru only took Yukimura away but did not take Kaoru away. Even if he took Kaoru away at risk, as long as Otsutsuki Ryu-style spelling, Kaoru's fate will still be dead.

Although he has five hearts, the curse seal destroys the brain, so the curse seal can directly kill him.

Until now, the Rebels have not developed a technology that can solve this kind of curse seal. In other words, Kakuto's fate was already destined when he did this.

Regardless of the result, whether it is possible to escape from the City of Fire, the horn who has made a betrayal will have only one end, that is death.

Yukimura, who understood this truth, was silent. He understood that Kakumaru had no intention of surviving from the beginning, even if Yukimura and Orochimaru could leave smoothly this time, had contact with them, and took them into the intelligence center in person.

The corner will still face the same ending.

"So, does he know about this, too?"

After a long silence, the village head Yuki sighed and asked with a slightly bitterness.

"certainly."

Orochimaru nodded. If it weren't for his own reasons, someone like Kaoru would have forced him to do this.

In other words, Jiaodu himself had already prepared to sacrifice for the resistance army, and he had made plans to die from the beginning.

“It’s really…unbelievable.”

Yukimura took a deep breath and sighed.

If it were someone else, he wouldn't have been so surprised. The Naruto world has always been without people who sacrifice themselves for others. Naruto has been able to do things that sacrifice themselves for great cause.

However, the person who did this was Jiaodu, the one who once killed his companions and abandoned his teammates for money and ran away.

What shocked and surprised Yukimura most when he would do such a thing.

“In fact…”

Orochimaru glanced at the City of Fire that was vaguely visible in the distance and said lightly.

"Keep are not the undercover agents we sent to the Empire."

"What?"

Yukimura's eyes moved, she turned her head and looked at him in surprise.

He always thought that Kakuto was also a member of the Rebel Army, and everything he did was Orochimaru's instructions, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"Although it's a bit unbelievable, it's true."

Orochimaru nodded and said with certainty.

"He was actually a member of the Empire at the beginning. At the same time, he was also one of the first ninjas to join the Empire after the arrival of the incident. In the past 100 years, he has relied on his understanding of the ninja world,

The legions that led the empire several times exiled ninjas and ninjas, and were one of the thorns we wanted to get rid of at that time."

"But……"

Yukimura frowned and looked at him. If he said this, why would he be...

"A year ago, when I received this news from Masatozo, I couldn't believe that Kaoru would make such a choice. At first we thought there was a conspiracy, but it turned out that we were wrong."

Orochimaru said quietly.

"I don't know why, but now he has been betrayed the empire he has loyal to and the money he once believed in without hesitation. It's time to change his family and become the most important and highest-ranking person in the empire.

Undercover.”

"This is probably the first time in more than two hundred years that he has chosen to fight for others, or even...at the sacrifice of his life."

Orochimaru said with a little emotion, he looked up at the sky, and among the stars in the sky that looked like a galaxy, there seemed to be a different star, extremely bright.

"Human hearts are such a magical thing."

He looked at the starry sky above his head quietly and sighed inexplicably.

…………

The words are divided into two ends.

Just when Orochimaru and Yukimura escaped from the Castle of Fire, a surprising change was also discovered in the intelligence department of Izumo Castle.

"Minister Nakagawa."

The ninja, sitting in front of the surveillance table, observed a completely different situation than before, and turned back in surprise.

"The situation of the scout bug has changed."

"finally!"

Nakagawa Takuma walked forward excitedly, came to the surveillance console, and looked at the data on it.

Compared with half an hour ago, the state of the reconnaissance insects has undergone a significant change. They no longer wander aimlessly like before, but are entangled with each other, like a gang fight.

"They are killing each other."

A female ninja screamed excitedly and couldn't help but stand up and said.

For a period of time, the scout insects all over the ground have been thorns in their hearts. Now, seeing these thorns begin to get in turmoil, I am naturally overjoyed.

"The children are killing each other, and naturally because of the female insect's instructions, Lord Naruto's plan was successful."

Nakagawa Takuma thought to himself that such a change occurred, so naturally Orochimaru and Yukimura who went to the City of Fire completed the mission.

"Hurry up and contact other areas to see if the bugs in other places react the same way, and then send all this information to the city lord's mansion."

Thinking of this, he gazes, turns around and runs quickly towards the door, and instructs.

“Our time is coming.”

Half an hour later.
