Long Live The Hokage - Chapter 438

Chapter 438 Destiny’s Guidance

“Witness and slightly change the side story of Naruto World: The Death of the Fourth Kazekage, get 10(*2) Witness Points.”

“Stupid mortal, why didn’t you call the ancestor earlier?” Masahiko shook his head helplessly, his heart was shattered, and no matter how high his medical skills were, he couldn’t save the Fourth Kazekage.

Seeing Orochimaru there, Masahiko was both surprised and taken for granted. Ever since he obtained the “power of destiny” from his blood, Orochimaru has become so naughty that it wasn’t surprising to see him do anything.

But Masahiko never expected to see another “familiar stranger” here, Hidan!

“Orochimaru-Sama, pull it out, it hurts so much! That guy is already dead!” The person connected to his cure technique was dead, and the Kunai inside his wound began to hurt him.

Masahiko raised his eyebrows upon hearing that–– Did he just addressee Orochimaru by Sama? I thought you worshiped Jashin, have you converted to Orochimaru? It’s kind of interesting.

“Orochimaru, are you surprised to see me in a place like this?”

Orochimaru licked his lips, “You always do unexpected things, but of course, you’ve surprised me.”

Masahiko laughed and shook his head, “So, are you going to explain to me the current situation? Have you copied Jashin’s curse ritual?”

Orochimaru shook his head, “It’s just the same arrangement. So far, only Hidan has succeeded to obtain his immortal body. It’s not clear where the problem lies. After all, there are too few references for the curse, he’s just an example!”

“Orochimaru-Sama, do you know this guy? Wait… why is this guy blue… eh?”

Hidan was stunned, and the cyan figure in his sight suddenly faded and disappeared. In the next second, a hand was placed on his shoulders.

“Orochimaru, I’ll come back, just wait for me here, don’t move.”

“You…!” Hidan stretched out his hand and grabbed it.

Masahiko’s figure suddenly started to fade away, turning into a little blue light printed on Hidan’s right arm, manifesting as a blue mark.

Hidan frowned and raised his hand, “What the hell is this?!” He said then he took out a Kunai and was about to stab the mark, but Orochimaru stopped him.

“Leave it.”

“Leave it? Why, Orochimaru-Sama? The color is so ugly, and the doesn’t look good on me…” Hidan started talking nonsense again.

Orochimaru was used to it, so he just ignored him. He had a rough understanding of the situation, Masahiko wanted this cursed technique gone, and this is why he destroyed that ritual many years ago.

This time Masahiko sealed his Chakra on Hidan’s arm, just in case things go wrong. That’s fine, there are still many experiments that he could do on Hidan’s body… and apart from being verbose, Hidan was very “easy to use.”

……….

Konoha.

Masahiko slowly opened his eyes again to find a monkey butt was right in front of him.

He was stunned there for a moment before he remembered that he was spanking Naruto before…

“It’s been a while, Naruto why didn’t you run away, do you want to be beaten that much?”

“Ah!” Naruto exclaimed and raised his head, “Old Ancestor, you finally moved! Why did you space out while spanking me?”

Masahiko laughed, “I’ve beaten it too much to the point that it’s not attractive to me. But why are you still sitting on my lap, are you addicted to my beating or something?”

Jiraiya shook his head with a smile, “You were grabbing Naruto subconsciously, and he couldn’t break free. I was afraid of hurting him, so I didn’t want to use force. By the way, what did you just happen to you?”

“Have you ever heard of Spirit Transformation Technique? This is a similar self-created sealing technique called, Thoughts Manifestation Technique. I can teach it to you if you want. All that you need to do is leave some of your Chakra in an object, and your conscious can be transferred to that object after activation, a very convenient technique… No, forget it, I won’t teach it to you.”

Masahiko was worried that after he teach it to Jiraiya that he would leave a mark in the women’s bath… which he will definitely do!

Jiraiya focused on the main subject, “What happened exactly?”

“Hey! Ero Sennin, Old Ancestor, why are you two still chatting! Put me down first!” Naruto shouted in dissatisfaction, swaying back and forth on Masahiko’s lap.

Masahiko spread his hands, “I let go of you a long time ago, you’re the one who seems very comfortable in that position!”

Upon hearing that, Naruto hurriedly jumped off his lap, put on his pants, and pointed his finger to the cliff, “I’ll go over there for a while.”

Masahiko was stunned for a moment, he remembered that Naruto wanted to urinate… Fortunately, Naruto didn’t dare to do it on his lap.

“Go.” Masahiko turned to Jiraiya, “It’s true that something big happened, but don’t worry about it, I need to go now. You continue to teach Naruto the Summoning Technique, he will definitely need it in the Chunin Exam. I can’t afford him to lose.”

Jiraiya also frowned slightly, “Elder, is it related to Orochimaru.”

Masahiko was startled, how did he guess it? The older Jiraiya gets, the wiser he is. This kind of ‘attribute’ is really amazing…

“It’s about him, this time I’ll figure out what his plan is, so don’t go. Stay in Konoha, you’re fifty years old man, marry someone, waiting for Orochimaru for the rest of your life won’t help you… And while I’m at it, I will call Tsunade back.”

Jiraiya smiled wryly, “Tsunade… 50 years old… Orochimaru, I would be really grateful if you find me later to tell me what his plan is, and why he defected!”

Masahiko nodded, then waved his hand at Naruto, who was returning, then disappeared.

……

At the border of the Land of Wind, Masahiko saw Orochimaru again. He was still there, at the spot. However, Hidan had already left, and Masahiko could feel that he was heading towards Otogakure.
“Hidan is too noisy, Elder.” Orochimaru took the initiative to explain.

Masahiko nodded, since he has left a means of prevention on Hidan, it doesn’t matter if he wasn’t here, the more important thing now is…

“Orochimaru, is killing the Fourth Kazekage is also related to the so-called power of destiny?”

Orochimaru shook his head, “No.”

Masahiko was startled, “No?!”

Orochimaru licked his lips, “Destiny guided me to disguise as the Fourth Kazekage and go to Konoha to kill Sarutobi-Sensei! Killing the Fourth Kazekage was just a means to make things easier…”

Masahiko secretly frowned, “So how did you receive this guidance?”

Orochimaru pondered for a moment, “As you should have guessed, it’s the power in your blood. Back then, I obtained 20 ml of your blood, of which 15 ml was wasted on experiments, but I found nothing. Because I wasn’t reconciled, I took the remaining 5 ml of blood and injected it into my body!”

“It gave me five instructions in total, accept Anko as your disciple, defect, establish the Otogakure, go to Kirigakure to find Kimimaro, and kill Sarutobi-Sensei!”

“Does my blood actually have such an effect?” Masahiko looked stunned.

Orochimaru licked his lips, “It’s not necessarily a guide, maybe it’s a manipulation! Back then, when I accepted Anko as my disciple, it was a completely subconscious behavior. As for the defection, it was semi-subconscious and semi-experimental. It’s the same this time, your blood is very interesting.”

Masahiko’s expression was condensed; he didn’t find it interesting at all.

“What is happening?”
