Chapter 149 Snake Poison (Ch 149)

A few days later, Naruto and his group were finally ready to leave the small village.

“Goodbye, uncle.”

At the entrance of the village, Yukimaru kept waving at the backs of the group of people leaving. Naruto turned around and waved back at him.

“Goodbye, little brother Youkimaru. Remember to come to Konoha next time… Never mind, don’t go to Konoha. I’m not here.”

After taking his hand back, Naruto shrugged and said to Red Bean beside him: “I almost forgot that this is not our world.”

“That’s not the case,” Hongdou touched her chin and said thoughtfully, “Since there is another teacher in this world, then perhaps each of us has an opposing self here.”

As she said this, she patted Naruto’s shoulder.

“If Youkimaru went to Konoha in this world, maybe he could meet another you.”

“Um.”

Naruto nodded, “If it’s just the two of them, they should get along well.”

Anko tilted her head slightly, somewhat unaccustomed to such a serious Naruto.

“How come you act like you’re so familiar with yourself in this world…”

Seeing Hongdou’s suspicious look, Naruto quickly said seriously: “How is it possible? Didn’t Snake say that when the same person from two worlds meets, bad things will happen.”

“Well, you’re acting suspiciously, Naruto.”

Hongdou narrowed her eyes and showed a sly smile. Naruto felt uneasy when she stared at him, and he quickly ran two steps to catch up with Orochimaru and Guren in front.

“Hey, Uncle Snake.” Naruto greeted Orochimaru in the wheelchair: “Where are we going?”

Orochimaru, who was sitting in a wheelchair, glanced at Honglian in front of him and said, “You are asking the wrong person. I don’t know where we are going next. You should ask Honglian.”

“whispering sound.”

Honglian turned her head in dissatisfaction and said with a sour face: “I didn’t ask you to follow me. Don’t you want to go to the base to take a look? Just shut up and follow me.”

After saying that, she didn’t care about Naruto and the others’ reactions, and quickened her pace. Seeing this, Naruto said weakly: “She is so fierce.”

“Um…”

Orochimaru responded, ignoring Naruto’s remarks and changed the subject.

“Naruto, your training in Sage Mode has been progressing very quickly recently. At this rate, you will soon be able to learn the Sage Mode of Myoboku Mountain.”

“Oh~”

At this point, Naruto became proud. He wiped the tip of his nose and then said happily: “Hey, it’s going pretty well. After all, I have been in contact with natural energy for a long time. When I was a child, my body had already adapted to the sage chakra.”

“Oh, is that so?” Orochimaru touched his chin with some surprise.

“If you have been exposed to it since childhood, perhaps the natural energy has already transformed your body. In that case, you can…”

Orochimaru’s voice became quieter and quieter, until Naruto couldn’t hear him clearly. He had no choice but to ask, “What did you say, Uncle Snake?”

“hehe.”

Orochimaru stopped thinking, waved his hand, and took out a small glass jar from his arms. He shook the jar gently, and then Orochimaru said to Naruto:

“Naruto, this is snake venom produced by the Ryuchi Cave. It contains highly concentrated natural energy. If it were an ordinary person, once he drank this bottle of snake venom, he would not be able to die even if he had ten lives. But if it were you, this bottle of venom would be a real treasure from heaven and earth.”

Speaking of this, Orochimaru looked extremely serious.

“This bottle of venom can allow you to master the Sage Mode of the Ryuchi Cave, and can even significantly transform your body into that of a Sage. Of course, the premise is that you don’t die from the side effects of the snake venom.”

“How about it, do you want to try it?”

Naruto was stunned by Orochimaru’s sudden words. He swallowed nervously and asked, “Uncle Snake, can I really become stronger if I eat this?”

“Don’t worry.” Orochimaru gave Naruto a comforting look. “If you are in any danger or have any discomfort, I will stop everything.”

After getting Orochimaru’s assurance, Naruto slowly stretched out his hand and took the bottle of snake venom from Orochimaru. After receiving it, Naruto looked at it carefully and found that the snake venom in the bottle was transparent and colorless, and there was no special smell. To be honest, it only had a faint fragrance.

“Appearances are deceiving. The more beautiful a flower is, the more prickly its thorns are, right?”

Naruto closed his eyes, made up his mind, and drank the bottle of snake venom. The cold liquid seemed to melt as soon as it entered his mouth, and he lost all feeling. Naruto touched his throat in surprise. He was even a little unsure whether he had just drunk the snake venom.

“That’s it?”

Naruto looked up in confusion, only to be met with Orochimaru’s sullen expression.

“Uncle Snake…”

He fell down before he could finish his words. Orochimaru, who had been prepared, quickly reached out and took Naruto to the armrest of the wheelchair. Red Bean, who saw this scene from behind, hurried forward and helped to support Naruto’s body.

“Hey, what’s wrong? Weren’t you fine just now?”

Orochimaru said calmly: “He’s drunk.” As he spoke, he carefully put away the glass bottle that originally contained the snake venom, and carefully wiped the bottle to ensure that no venom would spill out.

“Why?”

When Red Bean saw the bottle in Orochimaru’s hand, she said in surprise: “Is it just a small cup? Naruto is too…” As she said that, she looked at Naruto in her hand with some disgust.

Orochimaru interrupted at this time: “Okay, take care of Naruto. We still have to go on our way.”

Leading Snake and Red Bean, Honglian has already arrived not far from her base. Her eyes also reveal nostalgia. For her, this base is where she finds the meaning of life again. Here, she becomes a subordinate of Lord Orochimaru. For Orochimaru in this world, there are more than a dozen such bases. Honglian is just one of his many subordinates.

Looking back, Honglian noticed that Uncle Snake, who was sitting in a wheelchair, had entered the trap set in advance outside the base. But she did not warn him. Although Uncle Snake was her savior, she also wanted to see this pretentious guy suffer a little.

But soon, she couldn’t laugh anymore.

“No, that’s impossible! How did he know there was a trap there? And judging from his appearance, he seems to be very familiar with these traps?”

On the ground, Uncle Snake calmly defuses a new trap. Hongdou beside him raised an eyebrow and couldn’t help but complain: “These traps are all left over from you, teacher? They really have your early style.”

Not only Hongdou, but also Uncle Snake in the wheelchair, had understood the situation. He knew that these traps, including the upcoming base, were probably set by another self.

“A secret base? Indeed, it was my dream when I was a kid.”

As he said this, he no longer needed Honglian to lead the way, and he came to the hidden entrance of the base without any guidance. Honglian finally couldn’t help but jumped in front of him and stopped him. She asked, “Who are you? Why are you so familiar with everything in this base!”

“hehe.”

Uncle Snake did not answer Honglian’s question. He touched his disguised face, then drove the wheelchair into the base with satisfaction.
