The room and Orochimaru, lying on a white bed, greeted me with deathly silence and a strong smell of herbs with medicines.

Orochi was always pale without that, but now his skin competed in color with the dead. If it wasn’t for his weak breathing, you’d think he was already dead.

I calmly walked up to the bed and using the “Imperial Zone” together with the “Eyes of the Emperor”, began to closely examine the injuries and the body of my friend as a whole.

Jiraya and Tsunade were not lying, Hanzo really almost split him, there were not enough mere millimeters for kusarigama to touch the heart.

The ribs could not resist the steel and were barbarically cut. It is also a miracle that the bones did not pierce the heart and lungs.

And in general, he was very lucky, because such a strong and large blow somehow did not touch important organs.

It won’t be a problem for me to put him on his feet right now, but I won’t do it. Of course, I will improve his condition and take him out of the comms, but most of the injuries will be left by me, so that the asshole would suffer… He thought of attacking Hanzo, putting his life on the line! Now you walk around for a week, but think about your behavior.

Now that I had examined the injuries, I couldn’t help but pay attention to Orochi’s physique.

A wide pelvis compared to small, thin shoulders. There is no vegetation on the body, except for the hair on the head. Slender legs, gentle hands… Orochi undoubtedly had an androgynous appearance, and he could well be mistaken for a girl mowing under a boy. But I have the “Imperial Zone” together with the “Eyes of the Emperor”, and we were in the baths with him, so I know for sure that my close friend, the guy.

Okay, it’s time to treat him…

Some time later.

Slowly, my hands stopped glowing green, and the medical chakra returned to my body.

I healed most of the Orochi’s wounds, leaving the most “infuriating” and “painful” for the regeneration of the guy. I am sure he will be temporarily removed from the post of front commander, as well as Jirayu and Tsunade. In general, he will have time to think.

And yes, Orochimaru has an excellent command of irenjutsu, but I don’t think he will quickly find a way to cure himself. Besides, Tsunade is not an assistant to him now either, for obvious reasons.

All that remains is to get him out of the comms. Usually there’s nothing you can do about it, and you have to rely on the patient himself, but fuinjutsu works wonders.

A couple of movements and my seal with intricate hieroglyphs hangs on Orochimaru’s forehead.

For a moment, the hieroglyphs shone and after a few seconds went out.

One second. Two. Three. Four… Nothing…

“Stop pretending, you bastard. – I squinted and with a smile on my face, gave a strong crack to this sleeping beauty.

Instantly, Orochimaru’s eyes opened and quickly looked at me – How did you know? his hoarse voice rang out

“Believe me, I have my own ways of knowing if you’re conscious or not. –

– Hkhm. – Orochi groaned painfully, taking a sitting position – And I so wanted to miss your angry and reproachful speech…–

– Oh, you won’t hear her. – I folded my hands, smiling unkindly.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes suspiciously, with a puzzled expression on his face.

– If you think that I’m going to drip on your brain right now, then you’re wrong. – I shook my head – No, I’ll wait for Tsunade, Jiraya and Sensei, and together with them I will conduct an educational conversation with you. Jirayu is being eaten alive by wine, and Tsuna has lost her arm, I think they will conduct this conversation with maximum dedication. –

Orochimaru grimaced, clutching his head. – I wish I was dead…–

– It’s strange to hear this from a person trying to know immortality. I grinned, giving him my hand.

Grabbing the outstretched hand, Orochimaru got out of bed – Sometimes even I want to die, Tetsuya. – with a wry smile, Orochi said, “Okay, let’s go, I have to apologize and calm them down. –

– Come on. –

****

As soon as we opened the door, we saw Tsunade in the room that she was thinking about something. The sound of the door opening caught her attention. After looking at us, she froze.

Orochi and I had already reached the center of the room when the girl thawed and got out of bed with a relieved smile. – Orochimaru, are you all right… – she breathed out

– Yes, thanks to you, Jirae and Tetsuya. Thanks. Orochi said shyly, looking guiltily at the injured girl’s hand.

– You’re welcome. – Tsuna smiled as she came closer, and then, raising her healthy hand, sharply hit Orochi right in the face.

I foresaw this, but I did not stop her, after all, she would not harm him too much… Well, if not, then I’m here. I’ll fly up.

The blow was strong enough for Orochimaru to fly towards the door, which, by the way, opened abruptly, showing Jirayu on the threshold – What happened…–

He didn’t have time to finish, knocked down the flying Orochimaru.

A thud and Jiraya cried out joyfully – Orochimaru, you’re alive! – and then, squinting and grabbing his friend’s breasts, he added – You nit, I suffered so much because of you! I could have warned you then that you were going to attack Hanzo, you idiot! –

– Then there was no time for this … – sighed the snake, shaking his head

Jiraya did not have time to burst into a tirade, he was preceded by the calm voice of Tsunade, whose fist was “crunching” from the strain – Apparently my blow did not drive sanity into you well enough. Well, never mind, I’ll repeat it now… –

Okay, it’s time to save the fool.

– Okay, that’s enough for you. I just pulled him out of a coma, let him move away a little. And in general, get ready, the teacher would definitely like to see you now. Sakumo temporarily took the place of commander. –

– Are we going on foot? Jiraya asked hopefully.

– No, and why? – I raised an eyebrow – It will be much faster with hiraishin. –

– We will get to Konoha in one day, I think this time will be enough for us to recover before the meeting with Sensei. – with a sly smile, Jiraya said, elbowing Orochi – Orochimaru, and what do you say? –

Before that, Orochimaru’s puzzled face brightened – Oh yes, Tetsuya, I think it would be nice to walk and get some fresh air before talking to sensei. –

– I agree with them. – Tsunade said in my ear, hugging me from behind with her hand – Let’s have a short rest and remember the times when we performed missions as a team. –

These assholes, they just want me to cook them something again.

Okay, persuaded, I think they deserved it.

– Okay, let’s go on foot. –

– Great. – they said at the same time, quite happily.

Some time later

We were halfway there, it was getting dark, it started to rain. We stopped at a small cave.

Jiraya, Orochimaru and Tsunade sat on the rocks behind me and watched me stirring the pot, from which the magnificent aroma of stewed meat emanated.

– Kami … – said Jiraya, caricaturally inhaling such a tempting smell of food with his chest – If this is not the fragrance for which it is worth living, then what is it? –

Orochimaru silently agreed with what was said, inhaling the smell of food.

Tsunade looked at my back with a smile – Sometimes it seems to me that my boyfriend sold his soul to shinigami to be so talented. –

– Enough compliments and I get too many of them. – I waved my hand – It will be ready in two minutes, but for now… Orochimaru, you noticed them, right? –

Orochi nodded, looking in the direction of the dense bushes.

Soon, Jiraya and Tsunade also noticed that we were being watched.

“Are these… children?” Jiraya ‘s brows drew together slightly

– Stop hiding! – shouted Tsunade – Come out! –

Slowly out of the bushes came a little boy of six with a slight thinness from malnutrition and orange hair that was wet from the rain.

Cautiously approaching, also paying attention to my hair, he said – Please share the food. after saying that, his eyes involuntarily squinted at the pot.

Yes, that guy was Yahiko. Conan and Nagato were still hiding in the bushes.

It’s funny, Jiraya and Tsunade were so passionate about my cooking that they didn’t even notice these children. Although maybe they relaxed because of my presence.

Only nothing passed from the war, and according to the canon, Jiraiya, Orochimaru and Tsunade were supposed to meet them a year after the beginning of World War II.

But the story has changed significantly, so it’s doubly funny that we still met these guys.

And yes, Nagato already has a rinnegan. Plus, Orochimaru, Jiraiya and Tsunade could not notice another observer underground in the form of Kuro Zetsu, which apparently watched and guarded Nagato, or rather the dojutsu that he was gifted with.

What a workaholic Zetsu is after all… Poor guy.
