Chapter 286: Orochimaru's Stupidity
"Well, that's good. Let's follow this plan. The palace must be built firmly and beautifully without any problems."
At the construction site, Sakumo came to inspect in person, taking a look at the construction progress and aesthetic issues. It can be said that the Hokage came in person to supervise it, which shows that he takes it very seriously.
Upon hearing this, Maruboshi Kosuke, the project leader, patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, Hokage. I'm always watching and there will be no mistakes. We will build it strictly according to the drawings."
Since the area for building the palace was too large, and secondly, the Wood Release technique could not reach the expected level, after comprehensive consideration, they asked experts to design the drawings, and then built it according to the drawings.
In order to ensure quality and quantity, the first draft of the architectural drawings alone was discussed no less than a hundred times. Finally, after several debates, the final draft of the drawings was finalized.
"Well, Gu Jie, you need to pay more attention to this aspect." Shuo Mao nodded, then looked around, came close to him, and said in a low voice: "Gu Jie, please help me, do you think it can be completed within a year?"
"One year?!!!" Gu Jie was shocked by what Sakumo said. His eyes suddenly turned to the construction site. He made a rough estimate in his mind and finally shook his head.
"No, one year is definitely not enough. If we really do that, it would be irresponsible. Absolutely not!"
Gu Jie was firm in his attitude and rejected Shuo Mao outright, leaving no room for turning back.
Seeing this, Shuo Mao asked tentatively: "Is it really not possible?"
Gu Jie looked at the Hokage in front of him and couldn't help but feel a headache. A higher-ranking official can crush people to death.
He could understand Shuomao's thoughts to some extent, and even felt a little envious. After all, he was still single, and if he continued like this, he would probably remain single in the future.
Thinking of this, Gu Jie relaxed a little, but he still would not let his guard down. If something went wrong with the project, he could not take the responsibility.
"One year's time with these people is not enough. We need to add more people and pay more."
When Sakumo heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up. The last thing Konoha lacked now was people. Money was not enough, but they could squeeze in and barely hold on.
"Okay, I'll do as you say. I'll give you the people and the money."
Seeing Sakumo's happy face, Gu Jie was speechless. Others couldn't even become Hokage, and you are still thinking about quitting. If others hear this, they will definitely beat you up.
But he could only complain in his heart. Gu Jie shook his head and then turned around to supervise the process. He felt a little annoyed staying here.
And Sakumo got a satisfactory answer, and he was very happy, and his mood improved a lot along the way.
......
At the Hoshino family's house, the atmosphere was extremely stagnant at this moment, and an inexplicable sense of oppression was emerging around.
Yahiko and Kimimaro cautiously poked their heads out. The scene of the incident was not far away. Both pairs of eyes fell on the baby in Hoshino Kaede's arms?
"Oh my God, is there something wrong with my eyes? This is actually the teacher's 'child'!!!" Yahiko said, trying to lower his voice and suppress the surprise in his tone.
Kojunmaro was much calmer, but his furrowed brows also showed his inner confusion.
Just then, bursts of breaking sounds suddenly rang out, attracting the attention of the two little ones.
I saw Hoshino Kaede holding the child in one hand and punching the table beside him into pieces with the other hand. He looked at Orochimaru with a smile and said.
"I suddenly regretted that I shouldn't have given you my cells. I should have smashed you to pieces with one punch when I saw you."
Orochimaru smiled faintly on his fair face, his eyes as calm as water. Even though the table in front of him might be his end, he still remained calm. This seemed to have become Orochimaru's normal state.
"You really know how to joke." Orochimaru chuckled.
Xingye Feng narrowed his eyes and sneered: "Do you think I'm joking?"
He pushed the child in his arms out and motioned Orochimaru to look over: "It's only been a few years since we last met, and you've given a big guy like me a scare. Tell me how you want to die, and I'll make it happen."
The child in her arms was born from Orochimaru's cultivation of Kaede Hoshino's cells. This kind of experiment would have been extremely cruel in her previous life.
Now he has blatantly brought him to Konoha and personally handed him over to Hoshino Kaede. From this perspective, this is absolutely an act of courting death.
Looking at the cold and gloomy gaze of Hoshino Kaede, Orochimaru's alarm buzzed in his heart, his back felt cold, and the chill went from the soles of his feet to his spine.
After a few dry laughs, he immediately explained: "This is all an accident..."
Before he finished speaking, Xingye Feng's eyes flashed with a gaze as sharp as a steel knife, and he said in a faint voice: "I don't want to hear nonsense, otherwise... I will chop you to pieces today."
"I heard that you have a strong ability to save your life. I would like to see it for myself."
Orochimaru's forehead was covered with sweat, his calm expression seemed like a dream, fear took over again, and he spoke quickly.
"You know my original research goal. After in-depth research on your cells, I found that your cells are too active and are not compatible with other cells at all."
"So I tried to weaken its activity, and the result...the result..."
Xingye Feng continued what he said: "The result is that he was the 'accident', right?"
He sneered, "Your statement is a bit too confusing. Accidental is not enough to describe this result."
The more he talked, the angrier he got. He thought it was just a lie, so in a rage, Xingye Feng punched him.
Orochimaru's eyes flashed and he flew backwards. Then his throat felt dry and a sweet and fishy taste appeared in his mouth. He was embedded in the wall.
"Ahem, you hit me really hard." Orochimaru didn't even have time to react to that punch. His eyes blurred and he flew out.
Fortunately, Orochimaru was very lucky and survived the one punch. He walked back dragging his seriously injured body.
After venting his anger, Xingye Feng snorted coldly, but he no longer had the intention to beat anyone. He concentrated on coaxing the child and spoke at the same time.
"What are you going to do with this kid?"
Orochimaru coughed a few times, then forced himself to smile and said, "Didn't I come to Konoha to ask you a question?"
Hearing this, Hoshino Kaede thought seriously for a while, and finally sighed deeply and glared at Orochimaru fiercely.
"Humph, this child stays in Konoha, as for his identity..."
Halfway through his words, Xingye Feng couldn't help but feel a headache. It was really difficult to arrange his identity.
Because if he acknowledges that he is his own child, it will inevitably raise a series of questions, such as who is the child's mother?
How should he answer this? Could it be said that he popped out from between the rocks? That was not realistic at all.
Hoshino Kaede gnashed his teeth and looked at Orochimaru: "This is all caused by you."
Orochimaru smiled awkwardly and took two steps back. He didn't want to be beaten again.
"Forget it, just put him in the orphanage. Chihori can take good care of him."
Ultimately, the orphanage was the best option because it didn't matter where you came from.
