Ye Zi and the other two crossed the border, without the road to the country of fire, nor did they think that some people in Konoha were collecting information and movements about him, nor did they know that Kushina was leading a team to rush towards him.

The journey is not far away, but it is boring to move forward. Considering the mental state of Yan Ye and Uchiha, they set off again after taking a break in the middle.

A few days later, the three returned to the stronghold.

Open the secret entrance and walk inside, there is still the familiar wooden corridor.

They had just walked into the shadows in the corner and quietly walked out of two teenagers wearing standard clothes.

"Mr. Ye Zi."

Two young men with tender appearances respectfully bowed to Ye Zi, and looked at Ye Zi with a deep admiration.

Ye Zi nodded slightly to the two of them, responding to the greeting, and then he and Yan Ye walked straight to the end of the corridor.

The two teenagers watched Ye Zi disappear at the corner, then they retracted their gaze and hid in the shadow again.

The structure of the stronghold is not as good as a maze, but it also has the prototype of ant. The corridors are well connected and if you are not familiar with them, you will get lost. Each corridor can lead to a different area.

Along the way, the boys and girls I met would greet Ye Zi, and everyone looked at Ye Zi and admired and respected him.

These war Yugu picked up from all over the world have always been the targets used by major ninja villages to cultivate loyal people. Some of them are lucky and can be adopted by ordinary residents if they are not attracted by them, but that is only a few.

Most of the bad luck will be accepted by a certain department of the ninja village. For example, some of the members of the group evolved from these orphans.

Of course, if you can be screened, you must first go through a series of training in the outside village, get eliminated in the first stage, be stuffed into the roots, and then further strengthen the training. Then, in order to create a group of emotionally-free ninjas, you must go through some special training and trials.

This phenomenon is the same for any ninja village.

In recent years, as the war has subsided, almost no war can be found, and only more than a hundred of them have been found in the strongholds.

Ye Zi devoted a lot of effort to these orphans. The time he took out was used to teach and included all the orphans in the stronghold.

Regarding the cultivation method of the Anbu style, Ye Zi and Orochimaru are both members of the root, and they have some contact in this aspect. With that cruel method, they eliminate some of them and extract the essence. Those who can be trained are good players and can become useful tools.

Orochimaru made this suggestion directly. He believed that if Ye Zi wanted to invest time and energy in this group of children, in order to show the greatest value, he had to apply the practices and methods of root training members.

His suggestion was rejected by Ye Zi without hesitation. He would cultivate followers, but would not follow Danzang's approach.

The orphans collected are lucky and unlucky.

They get out of trouble, but they want to enter this world of ninjas that may face death at any time.

Facing all the way to the teenage girls, Ye Zi first asked Uchiha Jin and Yan Ye to rest, and then went to find Orochimaru alone.

When I arrived at the largest laboratory, Nanako was the only one.

Seeing Ye Zi, Nanako showed surprise on her face. She hadn't seen Ye Zi for a while.

"You're back." Nanako smiled.

"Um."

Ye Zi nodded, not showing that he was coming to find Orochimaru to avoid being disappointed. He naturally came to Nanako's side, looked at the mountain of information piled up on her desk, and said casually: "Don't be too tired in normal times."

Nanako looked at Ye Zi's side face, her eyes were as gentle as water, and she smiled and said, "I will pay attention."

Feeling Nanako's gentle gaze, Ye Zi looked at the soft, black and shiny long hair, and many of them were split out. Seeing this, he stretched out his hand and gently straightened the split hair.

Nanako quietly let Ye Zi help him straighten his hair, and a smile on his face.

After sorting it out, Ye Zi asked, "I haven't come back for a while. Has the improvement of the potion been finished?"

Nanako nodded and said, "The onset time and maintenance time have been compressed to the limit, and there is no room for improvement. After the injection, the onset time is 1:5 seconds, and the maintenance time is less than seven minutes, fluctuating between six minutes and thirty seconds to seven minutes. The effect of the drug is suitable for the human body."

"Is it the limit..." Ye Zi touched her chin, pondered for a while, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, six minutes and thirty seconds, enough."

Nanako's eyes bent and then asked, "Will the made potion be used on those children?"

"If necessary, of course it is inevitable." Ye Zi said calmly: "It depends on their own decision."

At the beginning, this batch of potions was first released and was first used by Daming Ye of the Naru. Those who knew the consequences but still injected the potions were voluntarily.

By the same token, if the battle is triggered, Ye Zi cannot force every ninja cultivated in the stronghold to inject this mortal potion, this choice can only be decided by the user.

"I understand." Nanako stopped the topic.

Afterwards, after the two talked about something unnutrition, Ye Zi saw that it was almost the same, so he stopped the topic and said, "Don't be too tired in normal times, I'll leave first."

Nanako's happy expression stagnated, then smiled and said, "Okay."

She was already very satisfied to be able to spend so much time with Ye Zi alone.

She used to be accustomed to Ye Zi's indifference from the inside out, which was a resistance caused by some reason she didn't know. After that, she tried hard to overcome this resistance and let Ye Zi open her heart to accept herself.

When she knocked on the door of her heart, what she could feel was no longer indifference, but the feeling of gently caressing her face like a gentle spring breeze, but it was the wind that could not be touched.

Nanako realized this and accepted it. She didn't have to be too greedy, which was enough.

Watching Ye Zi leave, Nanako takes back her mind and then devotes herself to the information.

Orochimaru is not in the main laboratory, so there are only two places left, one is his living room and the other is his independent laboratory.

After leaving the main laboratory, Ye Zi went straight to Orochimaru's independent laboratory.

Based on Orochimaru's request, he no longer pushed the door directly into the door like before, and reached out to knock on the door three times, with a slightly heavier force.

There was silence inside the door. After a moment, Orochimaru's cold voice came: "Come in."

When Ye Zi heard this, he pushed the door open and the first thing that came into his eyes was the black complicated technique painted on the ground. In the middle, he still had a breath of life, but was in a coma. The clothes and forehead protection he wore on his body could be judged to be the ninja of the Iwa Ninja.

Orochimaru turned his back to Ye Zi, lowered his head slightly, and his snake eyes quietly stared at the young man in a coma.

He knew that the person who came was Ye Zi, and the only ones who could enter this room were Ye Zi and Nanako. Judging from the force of knocking on the door, it was judged that the person was Ye Zi.

Seeing this formation that seemed to be carrying out some kind of ritual, Ye Zi became interested.
