"Is it related to Orochimaru? That's right...ah!"

Minato sighed deeply.

The air in the room was slightly solemn.

"Master Naruto, you... have you known for a long time that the disappearance is related to Lord Orochimaru?" Shimizu asked cautiously.

"I knew it a long time ago... No, how is it possible? It's just... Orochimaru has been acting strange in the past six months. I know he has made small moves in private, but I didn't expect that he would be related to the missing case. This incident is really a headache! Alas!!"

He sighed again.

Minatum rubbed his eyebrows in distress, relieved the pressure, and his brain was running with all his strength, sorting out the beginning and end of the entire incident.

A case of missing villagers.

Half a month ago, a villager reported that his husband was missing. Since then, people have been reporting that someone of his relatives and friends has disappeared. So far, twenty-six people have been confirmed to be missing.

It also includes children under five years old...

Judging from the situation of Shimizu's report, Orochimaru is probably the mastermind behind the disappearance case. The most important point is that no matter what Orochimaru did to the missing persons, their fate would not be very wonderful.

And the case has already fermented in the village.

It is impossible to cover up Orochimaru, and Minatogi is unwilling to help Orochimaru cover up such bloody evil deeds.

However, once this matter starts, it will undoubtedly be a huge scandal. Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas of Konoha, was called "the wind of disaster", actually harmed the villagers in his own village... Konoha's face will definitely be stripped naked.

If it's just a little face, it's not under the consideration of Mizuno.

He was considering how to explain this matter to Mr. Jiraiya and the third generation, especially Mr. Jiraiya. Minato knew very well how much Mr. Jiraiya valued the bond between him and Orochimaru. The more he understood this, the more he was worried that this would cause a heavy blow to Mr. Jiraiya.

He could not have imagined.

I don't want to think about it either.

But I have to think about it.

I looked at the clock hanging on the wall.

Time is tight, and decisions must be made as soon as possible!

"Shimizu, go find Teacher Jiraiya and tell him the whole thing... Teacher Jiraiya should now be near the girls' bathhouse in the east of the village. You can search on the rooftops around the girls' bathhouses nearby, and it is not difficult to find it." After thinking about it, this matter cannot be hidden from Teacher Jiraiya. With Teacher Jiraiya's temper, if you can't make a break with Orochimaru in person, things may change endlessly.

"······yes."

Zhishui responded in a flash.

Women's bathhouse?

This place is a little restless!

At the age of fifteen, he happened to be in his puberty and was at the most curious about the things between men and women. Even a good child like Zhishui could not help but have a little curiosity under the influence of his peers.

Zhishui left with a subtle and indescribable mood, plucked up the courage to move towards the women's bathhouse.

When Shishui left, Mizumen sat on the chair and thought for three minutes, then opened the drawer, took out the spare ninja bag from it, and tied it to his body.

Have to be prepared.

Judging from the current situation, 80% of the fight will likely start next.

If the fight really starts, that guy Orochimaru will not be easy to deal with at all.

It’s not good to say that it’s the year. Before, Nagarjuna made a big fuss in the village and killed Danzo and escaped. Now, there is another incident like Orochimaru... The masters in the village are going to lose their employees again! This is not good news.

Thinking about the future of the village, Minato used the technique of flying thunder to come directly under a cherry tree opposite Sarutobi's mansion.

He has been here many times and has left coordinates.

The door is open.

Before Shuitu could enter, bursts of noise floated out of the house.

"·······Stinky old man! I'm going to run away from home!!!"

The young man's voice was full of vitality, and the duck's voice sounded a little familiar.

Immediately afterwards, the boy with a hedgehog head rushed out of the gate, but he did not see the water gate standing at the door. It was like a frightened wild boar and ran away without a trace.

"Oh! I'll make you laugh, Minato."

The third generation stood on the steps at the door, and his face was not very good.

The youngest son was disobedient, which really hurt him.

"This little bastard is not obedient at all..."

Minatum smiled and didn't interrupt. It was okay for the other father to beat or scold him, but it was no matter how hard it was for outsiders to interrupt. However, things are very urgent now. If you continue to listen to the third generation's nagging in such a parental matter, it would be troublesome if you delay things.

"Mizuno, is there anything wrong with me?"

Although he has retired, the observation ability he has trained over the years has not yet deteriorated. He noticed the subtle hint of embarrassment hidden in Minato's smile.

Something is wrong!

"It's Senior Orochimaru."

Minato breathed a sigh of relief and didn't talk nonsense, so he stepped into the topic.

"Do you know the recent disappearance?"

Hearing Mizuno's words, Sandai's expression became ugly in an instant, as dark as the bottom of a pot.

"Are you saying that those missing cases were made by Orochimaru?" The third generation's tone was very gloomy, and his sharp eyes could poke two holes into granite.

Orochimaru is his favorite apprentice.

“Eight out of ten.”

The Shuimen Station is very stable.

"······························································································································································································································································································································································································································································································································

He did not doubt what Minato was saying.

I don’t know when it started... Maybe it was from the time Tsunade left the village, Orochimaru became weird. Many times, he didn’t know what his beloved disciple was thinking. He just knew that Orochimaru did have some small moves in secret and had also had sex with Danzo.

But out of trust in his disciples, he did not check in detail what Orochimaru had done.

Did you do something wrong at the beginning?

There are more wrinkles on the faces of the third generation.

“······· I’ll trouble you.”

Watergate didn't refuse.

Looking at the expressions of the third generation that can make people eat alive, he felt that if he said "can't", the third generation might really turn against each other.

Because of Naruto's incident before, the relationship between the two generations of Naruto had become very stiff. It took only half a year to gradually ease. If there was another conflict because of Orochimaru... Minato tried to avoid the occurrence of conflicts.

Let’s not talk about whether it can be done. If you kill Orochimaru yourself, it will be a chore to explain to Mr. Jiraiya at that time... Besides, it is difficult to judge the depth of Orochimaru's guy, and he can be invincible with the technique of flying thunder god, but he wants to defeat or even kill Orochimaru...

Mizuno felt that it was definitely not an easy thing.

Even if the third generation takes action on their own, it may not necessarily lead to results.

———

North of the village, below the forest.

Orochimaru's secret laboratory is hidden here.

"It's here?"

Third generation stands on the treetops.

He looked around and found nothing unusual, and asked in confusion.

"The smell of blood disappeared here." Inuzuka nodded vigorously.

It is impossible for Inuzuka’s nose to make mistakes.

"Hai Yi, have you discovered it?"

The third generation did not doubt Inuzuka's claw's ability, so he turned his head and looked at Hiichi Yamaaka.

"Underground, there is a barrier underground that blocks my perception."

Yamaaka Haiyi did not disappoint the expectations of the three generations and gave the result.

"Underground?"

The third generation looked down at the ground where there was nothing unusual. He jumped down from the branch, bit his right thumb, quickly completed the seal with both hands, and used blood as a catalyst, and slapped the ground with his right hand, "Psychic Technique! Come out! Ape Demon."

The chakra erupted into white smoke.

A gust of forest wind blew, the smoke dissipated, and a tall monkey with white hair and white beard with a majestic face, wearing a tiger-skin skirt appeared in front of everyone.

This is the psychic beast and ape demon of the three generations.

"Sarubi, what happened?"

The ape demon looked at Hiichi Yasuka, Inuzuka and others standing around, and then looked at the Santian in military uniform, with some confusion.
