Chapter 34. Doubt Benefits
“So... What's your business coming here? I don't have much time.”
Akabane doesn't want to waste much time. After his shop opened and became a member of the 7th team, he now rarely got any free time.
Orochimaru hesitated, a bit difficult to speak, looked embarrassed he said his intention, “I want Akabane-kun to teach me how to use genjutsu.”
“Genjutsu? My genjutsu is quite simple. I just use it as a scam. ”
Akabane said lightly.

“But how do you project what you want into what I see?”
Orochimaru is not yet proficient in genjutsu but has studied these subjects. The main foundation of genjutsu is to disrupt the chakras and mind, so that the target can see their most feared imagination.
Then how can Akabane precisely project what she wants them to see?
“Yah... by predicting the movement of your opponent.”.
“Intuition?”
Orochimaru was deep in thought.
“At that time when my mission began, what I was most worried about was that my teammates fell into your bluff and you with Tsunade would attack me first, but it seems like the two of you are confident enough to face us separately, and I've calculated my teammates' abilities and guessed that they could beat Tsunade.”
“With that condition, I can execute my strategy accurately without being bothered by anything else. The key to my genjutsu is because I can predict the outcome, and my Kekkei Genkai takes the biggest role.”
Akabane explained.
“Kekkei Genkai Kurama? Five Senses Control?”

Orochimaru felt his greatest weakness.
When talking about the Kekkei Genkai, it is a unique trait of ninjutsu that can only be passed down between generations of a particular clan. Even among the Kurama Clan, only Akabane, was seen waking up her Kekkei Genkai.
“Sorry, I can only help you with that explanation.”
Akabane politely apologized.
“I'm the one who should say thank you, Akabane-kun, goodbye then.”
Orochimaru was a little lost, got up and bowed.
After that, he climbed out of the window and jumped out.
Akabane paused for a moment, then shook her head slightly, lay down, and closed her eyes.
“It can be seen that Orochimaru also suffered a big loss.”
His clone said lightly.
Akabane felt that Orochimaru accepted his defeat harder than his team-mates because he had always been the best student in the academy, and no one had ever reached his level.
“Hmm... This will be good information about him in my comic.”
Akabane then stood up.

“Omong-by the way, we should hurry to reach the plot “The Lands of Waves Escort Mission”. There are many ninjutsu and Kekkei Genkai used, which can give me a lot of new ninjutsu to exchange.”
Akabane said excitedly.
“If you're impatient, shouldn't you help me finish this?”
“Good advice! … Jutsu shadow clone!”
Akabane summons another clone to help finish the comic faster. Then he sat down, crossing his legs to recover his chakra.
Inside the room, the two clones looked at each other, speechless.
…
Orochimaru left the Kurama clan and walked through the forest.
Suddenly he saw Jiraiya holding a drawing board in one hand and a pen in the other, trying to draw a comic.
“Jiraiya also started drawing comics? is this more important than her training?”
“Kony!”
Orochimaru sneered and was about to ridicule Jiraiya.
Yet.
If drawing a comic is stupid, who loses to Akabane!?
He froze, then turned around and left.
Orochimaru has always been smart and decisive since he was young. He always knew what he wanted, but now he had felt his first loss.
He wouldn't hate Akabane because of this, but could he fight on par with Akabane in the future?
Not sure.
Orochimaru walked aimlessly while looking up at the sky.
“Naruto, yes?”
At this time, many workers were working on the Third Hokage statue.
“Intuition?”
Orochimaru.
Here goes!
Maybe I should try as well, how does it feel to draw a comic.”
In order to understand a person's path of mind, you must first learn to understand their desires.
As for understanding Akabane, he had to learn the reasons for Akabane's comics.
“No, comics are too hard, all I need is the reason!”
“I'll try it!”
It is rare to see Orochimaru eagerly learning anything new.
…
“It looks like Orochimaru has solved the problem.”
In the Hokage's office, Hiruzen, who had been monitoring Orochimaru for a while, heaved a sigh of relief.
“Orochimaru is not as fragile as you think. She has what it takes to be an Anbu.”
Danzo entered the office with a confident expression on her face.
Although Akabane also possesses exceptional talent and awakens her Kekkei Genkai, she lacks the work ethic of Anbu, which can be seen in Orochimaru.
Only those with motivation can become stronger!
“We've discussed this before. I won't let you take Orochimaru!”
Hiruzen exploded with excitement, and the entire office was suddenly shaken.
“Get rid of your fragile threat; our deal is one year of your training.”
Danzo chuckled and turned around.
…
Back at Anbu headquarters, he took out the comics he bought earlier and read them from scratch again.
Previously, he lost interest after only a few pages because he had other things to work on. Now that he has free time, coupled with Akabane's outstanding performances on the field, he once again becomes interested in comics.
“Come see..”
After reading the first chapter, his eyes wandered around his office while daydreaming.
“Shimura-san, the comic... is it interesting?”
Say one of his subordinates.
Seeing Anbu's head interested in reading comics was an unusual sight.
“What interests me is the author of this comic.”
Danzo explained it clearly.
“Oh? Is that one of your students? Kurama Akabane?”
“Ya.”
Danzo's response was straight and cold, while continuing to read the comics.
…
As soon as he finished reading all five chapters, something caught his interest.
“What are you thinking, Shimura-san?”
His subordinate asked curiously.
“Tailed Beasts are the strongest form of living chakra, and Konoha has the mandate to seal the strongest of them all, the Nine-Tailed Fox, Kyuubi. There was never a problem with the Uzumaki clan's sealing method, but in this comic, Kyuubi rampaged through Konoha, then sealed inside the main character who knew nothing about being Jinchuriki.”
Danzo grinning.
The pure-blooded Uzumaki clan was always red-haired. Why is there blonde hair, Uzumaki?
“You mean..”.
“Akabane thinks something will happen to the Uzumaki and Konoha clans who almost destroyed the entire village!”
Danzo said suspiciously.
“What will happen? Maybe this is just the story he made?”
His subordinates were even more confused.
The Hidden Village of Konoha has always been very respectful towards the Uzumaki Clan and their successors. What's the worst thing that could happen to them?”
Moreover, this comic was only a children's fiction story, so there was no deep meaning!
“I will give you the advantage of this doubt because the security of the village took part in this story. Help me put together his latest chapters. I want to see it as soon as possible.”
Danzo put down the comic and ordered his Anbu.
“Understood!”
Although puzzled, his subordinates nodded in response.
When his subordinates left, Danzo picked up the comic again and looked at the first page.
“Klan Tail Nine..klan Uzumaki will go, only one successor remains.”.
Danzo watched it with ama. Akabane's comic is just a fiction, but she feels the possibilities are quite high by seeing how close to the real thing.
The strong sealing jutsu and its vitality are the reason why Uzumaki Mito is still alive as Jinchuriki. On the other hand, Jinchuriki in another hidden village ended miserably…
If you want to deal with the Konoha-tailed monsters, you must first cut off the combined strength of the Senju and Uzumaki clans.
There are indications that the Uzumaki clan is in danger!
“Is this caused by Kumogakure? Or Kirigakure? Or, another factor?”
Danzo was deep in thought.
This is something that may not necessarily happen, but as the head of Anbu, any catastrophic scenario involving Konohagakure must be taken into account.
