Chapter 198 - 198 (2/2)
Next, he announced this matter as an S-class secret of Konoha, and at the same time rewarded everyone present.
”Kenichi, you've done a great job. Your report and subsequent search with Minato are of the value of an A Rank mission. You will have the reward for that, and you can collect it later.”
Kenichi was very happy, he was just a Tokubestu Jonin, and A Rank mission rewards were great income for him.
”What about me?” Kushina, who had been keeping her head down, couldn't sit still anymore when hearing about money. Since she was the Kyubi's Jinchuriki, big missions were a rare thing for her and she didn't get much income.
”Same goes for you as well!” The 3rd said generously.
Hearing that, Kushina was very satisfied, and went along with Kenichi to collect the money.
On Ryo's side, as soon as reached the village, he teleported to Orochimaru's lab. This time however, he happened to bump into Danzo who also came to find the Sannin.
Danzo saw Ryo's sudden appearance and his face turned rather gloomy. Since Ryo teleported in, he must be visiting Orochimaru's lab quite often. Danzo never knew about that!
”Orochimaru, what's with that?” Danzo pointed at Ryo.
”Danzo, I'm the one to ask that question!” Ryo said that, unleashing his Chakra deliberately toward Danzo.
A thin layer of sweat appeared on the Councilman's forehead, but by reminding himself of his new Arm that's made out of Hashirama's cells, he managed to keep himself calm on the surface.
At the same time, Ryo established a telepathic link with Orochimaru in secret, and the two discussed how to deal with Danzo.
After they agreed quickly to a good plan, Orochimaru interfered to ”stop” Ryo: ”Ryo Kun, just like you, Danzo san has business with me.”
”He does not know of my business, does he?” Ryo increased his Chakra's pressure as he asked Orochimaru.
”Absolutely not! Ryo kun, please believe me!” Orochimaru said quickly.
Ryo dubiously said: ”If he ever knows about my business, I'll finish you with my own hands!” Ryo then pulled back his pressure, and took a seat on a chair.
Originally, he had though that Ryo was comparable to the Sannin before the 3rd Shinobi 3rd War. However, now he knew from Ryo's preasure that he was already stronger, and even comparable to Sakumo. The only two stronger than him in Konoha at that time must be Minato and Hiruzen!
”Danzo san, you also rest assured; I haven't said anything about you to Ryo kun.” Orochimaru's words interrupted Danzo's thoughts.
He was vastly overpowered in this situation, and he could only take Orochimaru's word.
”Orochimaru, get him out now! We have to finish our business.”
”Ryo kun, please come later, and we will talk!”
Ryo knew that he shouldn't overdo the act, and he disappeared immediately from the lab, only returning when Danzo left.
”Orochi san, what brought that old fart to you?” Ryo was a bit curious.
”Danzo is really bold! He wants to reproduce Mokuton by transplanting the 1st's Chakra to children.” Ororchimaru actually sounded rather excited!
Ryo's shock appeared on his face. It was because of that incident in the Manga that Orochimaru defected and Yamato was born!
