Chapter 78 Orochimaru 2.0
Back in the classroom, Haruko started looking for the white-haired guy with the braid. It was really strange that he was even worse than Jiraiya.
Jiraiya: ?
"Morning classmate! I've learned a new, cool shuriken-throwing pose. Want to see it?"
Why throw a shuriken in a flashy way, to show it to the enemy?
Haruko didn't understand, so she chose to smile.
"Haruko, ignore these stinky boys. Look at the new dress my mom bought me, isn't it beautiful?"
It's all white gauze, it won't last an hour before it gets dirty, right? And... your back is covered in dust!
Haruko was shocked, but kept smiling.
My classmates around me: My classmates in the morning must really want to chat with me!
Taking advantage of a lull in their argument, Haruko quickly glanced around the classroom.
White braids... white braids...
Ah, found it!
"Excuse me, I have something to do right now. You guys talk first," Haruko said, getting up and leaving.
The group, who had been arguing the whole time: What are we talking about??
Haruko walked step by step toward the white-haired boy wearing a white robe and with his hair half-tied in a braid.
"Are you Beiruhu?"
Hiruko was startled by the sudden sound and looked in horror at the black-haired girl who had appeared beside him.
Haruko hadn't expected him to be so timid, so she quickly softened her voice, "I'm sorry, I scared you."
"N-nothing...it's nothing." Hiruko realized he had overreacted and turned his head away in embarrassment.
It's all those annoying people's fault. Because I'm not good enough and I'm always at the bottom of the class, they bully me and play pranks on me...
Haruko glanced at him curiously a few times. His skin was so white, like a vampire's... no, like Orochimaru's.
"Is there something you need?" Hiruko couldn't stand her strange look any longer and couldn't help but speak first.
He knew Haruko Hayama; she was a popular girl in his class, and she was also close to Tsunade, the granddaughter of the Hokage, and Orochimaru, the genius boy from the next class.
"Because I'm very curious about Hiruko!"
I'm curious about someone who's even worse than Jiraiya, but much better looking than Jiraiya.
"Curious?" Hiruko, who was initially happy to be approached by the popular girl in her class, became disappointed upon hearing her words.
They must have heard from others how weak they really were and that's why they became curious...
"Yes, I never expected Hiruko to be so beautiful, like a porcelain doll, making one want to protect her with care!"
With its white and crispy skin, it's definitely a porcelain doll.
Hiruko blushed slightly. Someone actually praised him. Was it really not a prank?
"Is Hiruko alone?" Haruko Hayama asked again.
Hiruko nodded cautiously. Could it be that she thought she was a reclusive person...?
Haruko smiled and took his hand. "Can Hiruko be my friend? I know someone who looks just like you!"
"Be my friend?!" Hiruko could hardly believe what she was hearing, and fearing she might change her mind, she quickly replied, "Of course!"
Haruko couldn't help but think: Orochimaru and Hiruko standing together must look a lot like the porcelain dolls Shuangfu!
...
"I didn't expect you to be so quick, Haruko. You've already managed to bring her here." Tsunade praised Haruko's decisive actions.
"This is Tsunade, and this is Hiruko," Haruko Hayama introduced them.
Then she turned to Hiruko and said, "Tsunade told me about you! She's really good, isn't she?"
Upon hearing this, Tsunade became proud again, "My intelligence is never wrong!"
Hiruko cautiously said, "Hello, Lady Tsunade."
Tsunade was taken aback by his address. "Why are you calling me Lady Tsunade?"
"Because Lady Tsunade is the Hokage's granddaughter, it is only right that..."
Tsunade interrupted him, "Even so, don't call me that!"
Sensing that Tsunade was in a bad mood, Hiruko was like a cautious snail. He had only peeked out because of Haruko's friendliness, but immediately retreated back into his shell after realizing that he had angered Tsunade.
“Hiruko’s statement isn’t entirely accurate,” Haruko Hayama explained. “Because Tsunade is amazing in every way, it’s only natural that she’s addressed as ‘Lord’!”
"Is that so? That feels pretty good!" Tsunade exclaimed excitedly.
Hiruko glanced at Haruko Hayama.
That's amazing...
Haruko leaned closer to Tsunade and whispered, "And Tsunade, don't you think he's a lot like Orochimaru?"
Tsunade glanced at Hiruko as well, "It really is! It looks exactly like a living person!"
"However, if Orochimaru saw him, he would definitely sneer and say something like, 'How could this kind of guy possibly be compared to me?'"
Tsunade was amused by Haruko Hayama's imitation of Orochimaru's tone and patted Hiruko on the shoulder, despite Hiruko's bewildered expression.
"You're quite interesting!"
Hiruko replied uncertainly, "Thank you?"
"Huh? Where did this kid come from?"
Jiraiya, whom cats and dogs despise, casually passed by them again and discovered that there was an Orochimaru 2.0 among them.
Tsunade waved her hand at him irritably, "Why are you always interrupting our conversations lately!"
Jiraiya was provoked by her attitude and retorted angrily, "I didn't come here to see you, what are you so narcissistic about, you flat-chested girl?!"
"You super perverted lecher!"
Tsunade and Jiraiya glared at each other.
Hiruko was a little embarrassed. He whispered to Haruko Hayama, who was standing unmoved beside him, "Aren't you going to try to persuade them?"
"You'll get used to it, you'll get used to it."
It's a joke; there's no way to persuade her otherwise. Haruko's experience over the past few days has taught her not to mess with an enraged Tsunade or an idiot.
Jiraiya the Idiot: Huh?
"Tsunade, don't forget our mission!"
Haruko decided to give Tsunade a reminder, as she had already begun to unilaterally beat up Jiraiya.
"An operation?" Tsunade was puzzled for a moment, but when she saw Hiruko next to her, she immediately realized what was going on.
Tsunade kicked Jiraiya one last time, saying, "I don't have time to fight you, Haruko, let's go!"
"What operation?" Jiraiya stubbornly stood up.
I won't tell you!
After saying that, Tsunade grabbed Haruko Hayama and Hiruko and ran away.
"Hey! Don't leave me alone!" Jiraiya quickly followed.
...
"Orochimaru is working so hard, still training so late."
Haruko hid in the bushes, watching Orochimaru throw shuriken at her.
Tsunade squatted down next to her. "Yeah, she really is a genius at pretending!"
"Pretending doesn't seem quite right, does it?" Hiruko murmured to herself.
Jiraiya pressed on, "What operation? Is it about Orochimaru? Are you guys going to play a prank on him? Count me in!"
Tsunade punched him on the head. "Quiet down, you idiot!"
"Ouch... Why did you hit me?!"
"Keep your voices down, all of you!"
Just as chaos erupted in the bushes, Orochimaru spoke up speechlessly: "What are you trying to do?"
These idiots are chattering away, thinking they're hiding well, when in fact they've already been spotted.
"It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been discovered!" Tsunade hit Jiraiya again.
Jiraiya figured he'd already been discovered anyway, so he quickly ran out of the bushes, yelling, "Tsunade, you violent maniac!"
