Uzumaki Chigusa watched Orochimaru leave the room.
Orochimaru went into the kitchen and found the ingredients for hangover soup.
Uzumaki Nano entered the kitchen, looked at the busy Orochimaru, and couldn't help but ask, "Orochimaru, you and the Clan Leader…"
"We're lovers."
Orochimaru glanced at Uzumaki Nano out of the corner of her eye and smiled slightly.
"Ah…"
Uzumaki Nano's brain momentarily froze, and she stared blankly at Orochimaru.
She quickly recovered and incessantly questioned, "Orochimaru, when did you and the Clan Leader start? How far have you progressed? No, you weren't underage when you started dating the Clan Leader, were you? Orochimaru, you weren't tricked by the Clan Leader, were you!"
Uzumaki Nano's expression grew increasingly worried, then turned to horror, and then to anger.
"Don't worry, I wasn't tricked by Chigusa; I was already an adult when we became a couple."
Orochimaru patted Uzumaki Nano's shoulder, "Do I look like someone who's easily tricked?"
She wondered what Uzumaki Nano had imagined, and what kind of image Uzumaki Chigusa had in her mind; she felt that if she didn't explain clearly, Uzumaki Chigusa might be sent to the Police Department by her.
"Then I'm relieved; that Clan Leader…"
Relieved, Uzumaki Nano began to tell Orochimaru about Uzumaki Chigusa's great deeds, and how unreliable she was as a Clan Leader.
Orochimaru secretly made a mental note, thinking she might use it later.
Soon, the hangover soup was ready.
Uzumaki Nano watched Orochimaru leave with the hangover soup, feeling somewhat unsatisfied, as if there were many more things she hadn't said.
How many dark secrets does Chigusa have?
Orochimaru noticed the expression on Uzumaki Nano's face and clicked her tongue in amazement.
In the room, Uzumaki Chigusa was already asleep.
Orochimaru had to wake her up, have her lean against her, and spoon-feed her the hangover soup.
"It's a bit hot…"
Uzumaki Chigusa stuck out her tongue, turned her head, and refused to drink any more hangover soup.
"It's not hot now."
Orochimaru blew on the soup in the small spoon and fed it to Uzumaki Chigusa.
"Mm, it's not hot."
Uzumaki Chigusa felt Orochimaru's meticulous care and wished this moment could last a little longer.
"Chigusa, I have to go. I'll come see you again next time."
Orochimaru gently placed Uzumaki Chigusa on the bed and kissed her slightly pouted lips.
Leaving Uzumaki Chigusa's house, Orochimaru used the Flying Thunder God Technique to arrive at White Snake Pharmaceutical Technology Company's president's office. Seeing Aokawa kissing his female secretary and girlfriend, she felt that she should change the location of the Flying Thunder God Technique formula to prevent such an awkward situation from happening again.
"O-Orochimaru-sama, you've arrived..."
Aokawa's face was red with embarrassment. The secretary glared at him fiercely, then looked respectfully at Orochimaru, too awkward to say anything.
"I interrupted you. I will change the Flying Thunder God Technique formula to a different place."
Orochimaru waved her hand, openly admitting her mistake.
A moment later, Orochimaru flipped through the compiled rogue Ninja data. The Kaguya Clan Ninja who caused trouble on the street earlier was a rogue Ninja from the Kaguya Clan in the Land of Water, who had accepted the company's invitation.
He was aggressive, injuring several rogue Ninja who had accepted the company's invitation, and nearly killed a rogue Ninja with the Ice Release Bloodline Limit.
Ice Release... Yuki Clan... Haku's mother seemed to be from the Yuki Clan.
Orochimaru took out the data of the rogue Ninja named Kaguya Ha. She was a little interested in this person, and somewhat worried that he had already been humanely destroyed.
"That guy named Ha, is he still alive?"
"Orochimaru-sama, Kaguya Ha is still alive and is being held in prison."
When Aokawa learned what Kaguya Ha had done, he wanted to kill him but was stopped by Kakuzu. Kakuzu believed that Orochimaru would come to the company, and it would be better to let Orochimaru decide how to deal with Kaguya Ha.
Aokawa thought it made sense and locked Kaguya Ha in prison, waiting for Orochimaru-sama to make a decision.
"Take me to see him."
Orochimaru put down the rogue Ninja data in her hand. There weren't many rogue Ninja worth paying attention to; most were Chunin and Genin, who probably chose to leave their Village because they didn't want to be cannon fodder on the battlefield.
In the prison of the Land of Waves, Kaguya Ha no longer had his previous aggression. He sat silently in a corner, as if doubting life, occasionally looking at the sharp bones piercing his flesh in his palm.
"Kaguya Ha."
Orochimaru stood in front of the prison, looking at Kaguya Ha sitting on the bed, doubting life.
"It's... it's you!"
Kaguya Ha recognized the woman standing in front of the bars, the person he had previously taken hostage.
"Watch your words! Before you stands Orochimaru, one of Konohas Sannin!"
Aokawa sternly rebuked. If Kakuzu hadn't stopped him, he would have killed this guy long ago.
"O-Orochimaru?!"
Kaguya Ha's pupils suddenly contracted. Orochimaru's reputation was, for him, like thunder. Who in the Ninja World didn't know Konohas Sannin now? Among Konohas Sannin, Orochimaru was the most famous, and the most widely spread story was that she had almost ambushed and killed Third Tsuchikage Onoki!
One must know that Onoki possessed the terrifying Bloodline Limit Dust Release, a powerful Ninja known as a "Kage"!
"You... you are Orochimaru?!"
Kaguya Ha couldn't believe it. He had just casually taken someone hostage, and it turned out to be Orochimaru, one of Konohas Sannin!
"I have a partnership with White Snake Pharmaceutical Technology Company. Today, I was just out shopping with my girlfriend."
Orochimaru looked at Kaguya Ha and asked, "Do you want to regain your freedom? Do you want to leave prison?"
"What do you need me to do?"
Kaguya Ha swallowed, thinking things weren't that simple.
"It's simple. I need you to periodically provide me with some blood. If you commit the same offense again, I won't be able to save you."
Orochimaru was still very interested in the Kaguya Clan's Shikotsumyaku. According to her, the probability of awakening the Shikotsumyaku Bloodline Limit in the Kaguya Clan was very low.
"I agree!"
Kaguya Ha agreed. Who would want to be confined here if they could leave prison?
When leaving the prison, Aokawa asked in confusion, "Orochimaru-sama, why not kill him? This guy is an unstable factor. Among all the rogue Ninja, he's the only one who causes trouble."
"Rogue Ninja who don't cause trouble are even more dangerous. They need more observation and attention to avoid affecting the people of the Land of Waves. As for Kaguya Ha, this guy just wants to prove his worth and is worth cultivating."
Orochimaru tapped her finger on her temple. Expressing his worth in such a primitive way only indicated that Kaguya Ha was someone with no complex thoughts.
