Did you lie?
Tsunade wanted to ask that, but she knew that there was no point in asking Orochimaru, since everything that he had said was the truth, but it didn't mean that everything was correct, since the Ootsuki Clan wouldn't be able to devour this planet, since they would definitely be devoured by Shinra.
Still, Shinra also told him that he wasn't perfect nor was he invincible, especially with the unexpected factor, such as the one that had emerged before.
'The Sage of the Six Paths...'
When Orochimaru thought of this man, he snorted disdainfully since the legend was devoured, yet at the same time, he felt that it was worth it since he knew well that under the lead of this guy, the world had always been in ruin, and all the ninja had always been in a war.
After all, who made ninja a profession had to kill others to get money?
Or rather, why did it have to be a ninja?
Why couldn't it be something else?
After all, if the Sage of the Six Paths wished to, Hagoromo should be able to rule this planet!
Yet, why did this guy become a worker of those nobles and daimyos just to get a little amount of money?
The missions of a ninja were dangerous, and for such a small amount of money, they had to risk their lives.
Why did it happen?
Somehow, Orochimaru felt like everything was a conspiracy.
From who?
He wasn't sure why he thought of this, but an image of a disgusting creature emerged in his head.
"...what are you going to do?" Tsunade asked with a face that was far from calm.
"What can I do? You know my strength, right? What can I do against such a creature?" Orochimaru asked helplessly. After all, he was a ninja, a race that relied on ninjutsu and chakra. Meanwhile, the Ootsuki was a creature that devoured chakra, and no matter how lethal the ninjutsu was, it would only be used as an energy by the Ootsuki, so everything he did was meaningless.
Yes, he could do nothing, but Shinra was different.
'And...'
Well, if it were before, he would be powerless, but he had many new powers, so he wouldn't be powerless.
The problem was that he didn't want this planet to be devoured, nor did he want his home to disappear. That forced him to leave this planet to search for a new home, as it was extremely difficult.
"No, you are lying! You must have an idea, right? Hurry up and tell me!"
"..."
Orochimaru knew that Tsunade was reliable and all, especially during the critical moment, politics, medicines, and many other areas, but he really hated this part of her, who was so impatient that she grabbed him again.
Letting out a helpless sigh, he wondered whether there was a way to fix her, and somehow, a strange thought emerged in his mind.
'Will becoming a mother make her gentler?'
It was said that when women become mothers, they become softer.
So, if someone impregnated Tsunade and made her a mother, would she become less troublesome like this?
As he thought of an idea, he knew who he should talk to, and he felt like... his boss would be more than happy, considering his taste and all.
"..." Shinra.
Nevertheless—
"By the way, did you meet that idiot?" Orochimaru asked.
"...are you trying to dodge the question?" Tsunade narrowed her eyes.
"No, it's just you can't do anything, nor can I do anything about it, so just leave it alone."
"....." Tsunade.
She wanted to argue, but even if she was the granddaughter of the First Hokage, who was known as one of the strongest ninjas in history, her strength was limited, and she didn't even have the special ability of her grandfather.
Or rather, how could her grandfather even have that bloodline jutsu?
Regardless, as Orochimaru had said before, Tsunade could do nothing, and with how she was, who was afraid of blood, she would squirm helplessly, like a frightened hamster. What could she do?
Letting out a helpless sigh, Tsunade sat down with a bang on the sofa, feeling so helpless.
"No, I didn't see that idiot."
Even if Orochimaru used the word "idiot," Tsunade clearly knew who he meant.
"But, it's strange."
Tsunade frowned when Orochimaru asked her this question. "When I thought of that idiot, I thought that he would be the first one who met you instead of me."
Jiraiya.
The last member of the Sannin was also known as one of the strongest ninjas in Konoha.
The relationship between Orochimaru and Jiraiya was like Hiruzen and Danzo, or Naruto and Sasuke, and with what Orochimaru did to the Konoha, wasn't it weird for Jiraiya not to even appear?
"Leave that idiot." Orochimaru snorted as he let out a helpless sigh inwardly.
"Do you know where he is? What is he doing?" Tsunade was all relaxed now and knew that more or less, Orochimaru wouldn't mess around.
As for the human experiments that Orochimaru had done, who hadn't done human experiments?
Compared to her second grandfather, Tsunade felt like Orochimaru's human experiment was child's play, and as a doctor and the pioneer of a medical jutsu, she also had more or less done experiments on the human body, so her tolerance of Orochimaru was quite high, especially when she knew about the problem with the Ootsuki Clan.
"Where else if not with those toads?"
Where was Jiraiya?
Naturally, he was with those toads, searching for the hero who would save the world.
"Those toads again..." Tsunade looked up at the ceiling as she let out a helpless sigh. Similar to Orochimaru's attitude toward those toads, she didn't like them as they were disgusting, and... she felt that they were kind of dumb.
Prophecy?
If this prophecy were real, then it would help her to stop all the tragedy around her first, okay?
If those toads couldn't even do that, what was the use of them?
Saving the world?
The ninja world had been in war for thousands of years, yet those toads never thought to do anything, which made her feel that instead of being good, they were manipulative.
Compared to the toads, the snake was much better as they were straightforward, and the contractor and the snake had a give-and-take relationship.
The slug was even better as it was just wishing to live peacefully.
As for the toads, Tsunade wasn't sure, but she felt like she couldn't trust them much.
"What are you going to do after this?" Orochimaru asked.
"What do you want me to do?" Tsunade frowned as she looked at Orochimaru cautiously.
"Just stay and do nothing. I will give you pocket money, and you can gamble with that money."
"Okay!" Tsunade knew that the situation on the outside was far from calm, and with how she was, she was afraid that she would be dragged into the mess, and the best place for her to retreat was in Konoha.
Still, as she agreed, a crack in space emerged, causing Tsunade to feel tense before becoming dumbfounded, as a young man came into her vision, yet she was even more surprised when—
"Welcome back, Boss!" Orochimaru greeted this young man excitedly, but Tsunade frowned and felt confused.
Who?
Also, what the heck was a boss?
