Having shed the skin of Orochimaru, which was entangled with numerous unclear causes and effects, the new Mitsuki is like a free man who has jumped out of the Three Realms and is not in the Five Elements. As long as he does not take the initiative to participate, most of the things in the ninja world have basically nothing to do with him.

However, once a life, especially an intelligent life, is freed from the imminent threat of death, it will inevitably have higher needs.

A strong curiosity and thirst for knowledge are essential to maintaining a passion for life, let alone Mitsuki, who is reborn with the will of a researcher like Orochimaru.

In the ninja world, apart from those interesting but troublesome looking guys, only Yukimura, a cloned life form treated specially by Mizuki, can arouse Mitsuki's interest.

The reborn boy watched the ups and downs of the ninja world and traveled around the ninja world calmly, while following Mizuki's past footsteps and searching casually. He unexpectedly found someone who interested him in the Land of Waves.

Mitsuki's predecessor, Orochimaru, has been to the Land of Waves many times, but this is the first time in recent years that he has taken a good look at this place that has undergone tremendous changes.

The bustling streets gradually became quiet until late at night.

Taking this opportunity, Mitsuki strolled around this not-so-big street. The roadside delicacies and entertainment stalls all left Mitsuki's footprints.

Although Mitsuki's body looks like he is thirteen or fourteen years old, his mental age is quite different. He is not as imagined, like his predecessor Orochimaru, who is in his fifties, but it also does not match the time of his birth.

Strictly speaking, Siyue's current mental state is that of a child who has been forcibly "matured" after becoming knowledgeable and knowing many things that are inconsistent with his mental age. Although it has its limitations, he is still in an unusual state.

Although Mitsuki was born from Orochimaru, he had long been separated from the former Orochimaru.

In the mythology of Mizuki's previous life, when the fire god Kagutsuchi-no-Mikoto was born, he burned Izanami to death. The enraged Izanami cut off Kagutsuchi-no-Mikoto's head with the Totsuka sword. The blood on the sword dripped and turned into several subordinate gods, among whom was the war god - Takemikazuchi. Although they are of the same lineage and can even be said to be from the same body, Takemikazuchi is not Kagutsuchi-no-Mikoto.

The reborn Mitsuki is not Orochimaru either.

Even if the replica knows the original's memory, it cannot become the original, it is just a substitute.

All memories and causes and effects were cleared, and then a new life was born, just like the soul of the original Mizuki who was given new life by Mizuki, but Mizuki did not pass on the memories of the original Mizuki and his own experiences to the reborn original Mizuki.

Orochimaru selectively prepared some inherited memories so that the newborn Mitsuki would not have to start from scratch.

Just like when we read novels and watch movies, although we will be infected by the experiences of the characters in the play and feel empathy, we will never think that we are the protagonist in the game. As time goes by, the gap between Mitsuki and Orochimaru becomes larger and larger, and they will become two unrelated individual lives.

And now, Mitsuki found Yukimura who interested him, not because of Orochimaru's greed, but because of his own curiosity. He wanted to see who this guy was who had some similar experiences to himself.

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. Compared to Orochimaru, Mitsuki feels that Yukimura is more of the same kind as himself and he has a stronger sense of identity with him.

Finally, when the busy streets began to quiet down, Mitsuki followed the shadows illuminated by the street lamps and came to the warehouse run by Yukimura and Yubiki.

"I'm sorry, we are not accepting guests today. If you need, please come back tomorrow morning."

Compared to the somewhat dull situation three years ago, Yuhuo, who now has a lot of experience, politely explains to Mitsuki who has come to visit.

Although there are few merchants of this age, there are too many strange people traveling around these days. There are also many guys like Mitsuki who have extraordinary identities even though their backgrounds are unknown.

"I'm not a guest. I want to meet your boss?"

"boss?"

Yuhuo was puzzled. It was not that no one was jealous of the booming business here. The location was good, and thugs would occasionally come to cause trouble.

Unfortunately, this is not the place for them to run wild. Yuhuo himself is a ninja with some strength. After more than three years of training, Yukimura, whose strength is on the rise, is not someone that ordinary people can deal with. After suffering several losses, those ruffians no longer dare to make trouble here.

"You are here to apply for a job, but we don't recruit apprentices."

The tradition of the ninja world is not only about master-disciple inheritance among ninjas, but also among civilians. The most concentrated areas are various gangs and companies.

These organizations are linked by private institutions or various large and small chambers of commerce.

This situation is a bit like the ancient party in Shuimu's previous life.

Because it was too busy, Yukimura had already hired some workers to help. The workload of this warehouse was no longer able to be supported by Yukimura and Yubiki alone.

However, recruiting minors is taboo.

Although the ninja world does not have a law to protect minors, it does have another set of rules.

Once a minor enters the society to work, he or she usually lives and eats in the master's house, like an apprentice or simply a disciple. Some big figures without children will occasionally recruit talented children to train as their assistants or even heirs.

Once a teacher, always a father. Although there is no such moral concept in the ninja world, after the master passes away, the disciples have the obligation to support the family, and are even qualified to inherit the family business if the heir is incompetent.

Therefore, the organizations in the ninja world are more strict in recruiting minors, so no one will accept children who come uninvited without anyone introducing them.

"Are you still hiring workers? It looks like business is good. It's a great place."

"Did I make a mistake? I'm sorry."

Although Mitsuki looked several years younger than himself, Yuhuo still bowed apologetically.

"Let me tell you."

Yukimura, who was much more mature than before, walked forward and asked politely.

"I am the person in charge here. I wonder what business it is for you, young man?"

"They really look alike!"

Mitsuki sighed inwardly, not long ago, his predecessor Orochimaru was killed by the sword of a young man with this face.

Yukimura's appearance is becoming more and more like the grown-up Uchiha Sasuke.

Although Yukimura looks a little older, his every move and gesture is somewhat childish. If you are not someone who knows Uchiha Sasuke well, you really can't notice these subtle differences.
