Bab 122: Chapter 122 :Hidan!!
[Hidan has slicked-back silver short hair and glaring purplish-red eyes. He has a violent personality, poor manners, and lacks education.]
[In addition, he is devoted to the teachings of the Jashin Cult and obsessed with insane killings, making him a very twisted individual.]
"Jashin Cult? What kind of cult is that? Jiraiya, Orochimaru, do you know about it?"
In the office, among so many people, only Fifth Hokage Jiraiya and Orochimaru had spent enough time outside the village to know more.
"I don't know."
Fifth Hokage Jiraiya shook his head, indicating he wasn't familiar with the cult.
However, Orochimaru was aware of some details about it.
"I know a bit about the Jashin Cult. It's a cult from the Land of Hot Water that worships the Evil God. They also like to conduct experiments on living humans, making them immortal. Five years ago, it was destroyed, and if I'm not mistaken, the one who wiped out the Jashin Cult should be Hidan."
"Are you saying Hidan's immortality is a product of the Jashin Cult's experiments?"
"Pretty much."
"But that doesn't make sense."
Fifth Hokage Jiraiya tilted his head and continued, "If the Jashin Cult's experiments gave Hidan immortality, then why would he want to destroy the cult?"
"Jiraiya."
"Hmm?"
"You don't actually think human experiments are gentle, do you?"
Upon hearing this, Jiraiya immediately understood.
His good friend Orochimaru was also a pervert who enjoyed conducting experiments on living beings.
Even Senju Tobirama wasn't as specialized in human experimentation as Orochimaru.
"I don't want to say too much, but think about those who used Hashirama's cells back then. They were in so much pain and felt helpless. If that was true for just Wood Release, then those who attained immortality would surely suffer even more despair."
"That's true. Even the light curtain mentioned that Hidan is a very twisted individual. It's not hard to understand that someone like him would destroy the Jashin Cult that created him."
[Hidan's name comes from the "hisha" in shogi, which is related to Shikamaru's love for playing shogi games. He is destined to be Shikamaru's experience package.]
[He possesses a three-segment scythe and a black spear that can extend.]
[He wears the only valuable necklace of the Jashin Cult around his neck.]
[After joining the Akatsuki, he received a ring with a codename and a cloud-patterned cloak.]
[Hidan comes from the Yugakure known for developing bathhouses, which is also the sacred site Jiraiya used for inspiration.]
Jiraiya: "Slander! This light screen is slandering me! It's slandering me!!!"
[Hidan, who isn't interested in foot massages, craves battle. He becomes a rogue ninja, attracted by the Jashin Cult, and through the experiments of its followers, he becomes the first to gain immortality and cursed abilities. As the strongest worker, he begins traveling to find sacrifices for the Evil God.]
[Usually poor and poorly dressed, Hidan was only showing off for a short time before being noticed by Pain, who sent someone to capture him.]
[After their meeting, he bravely withstood the ninjutsu of Orochimaru and Kakuzu to show off his immortality.]
"Orochimaru, why didn't you tell us that Hidan was invited by you and Kakuzu?"
Watching the light screen showing Orochimaru and Kakuzu attacking Hidan, Jiraiya looked a bit excited.
"You guys didn't ask me."
Orochimaru shrugged innocently.
"What else are you hiding from us?"
"Hehe, guess."
"Orochimaru, you..."
"Alright, Jiraiya."
Seeing Jiraiya and Orochimaru about to argue, the Third Hokage immediately stepped in to stop Jiraiya.
He really knew Jiraiya was just pretending to be angry to avoid blaming Orochimaru.
He didn't want to deal with these two.
Anyway, Orochimaru had returned to Konoha, and even if he had his own schemes, it didn't matter.
With the teacher in charge, Orochimaru wouldn't dare to rebel.
As long as the light screen exists, he wouldn't leave Konoha.
So, the Third Hokage tolerated some of Orochimaru's little schemes, as long as they didn't harm Konoha.
Would withholding some information about Kakuzu and Hidan harm Konoha?
Without the light screen, it might have caused some harm, just like in the last episode, where Asuma died at Hidan's hands.
But with the light screen in place, the potential danger could be ignored.
"Orochimaru, I won't pursue the things you hid, but if those secrets harm the village, then don't blame me."
"Hehe, old man, it seems like you can't beat me now."
"I can't beat you, but I can tell Tobirama-sensei. You wouldn't want to fight my teacher, Senju Tobirama, right?"
Hearing this, Orochimaru, who had been smiling and relaxed, suddenly changed his expression.
"Old man, how shameless! You're so old, and you're still going to tell on me."
"Hehe, why should I care? I have a teacher to tell on you. Do you have one? Oh, right, I am your teacher! You wouldn't want me to beat myself up, would you? Hahaha~"
Orochimaru could only look at the playful Third Hokage with a headache.
Even Jiraiya and Kakashi were shocked to see the Third Hokage acting like this.
"Cough, cough. Why are you all looking at me? Look at the screen!"
Having stepped down from the Hokage position, the Third Hokage felt no pressure and occasionally let loose.
To be honest, it felt pretty good to say and do whatever he wanted.
However, sometimes it could be a bit awkward when he acted freely in front of many people.
Luckily, the Third Hokage had experienced a lot, and these experiences taught him that as long as he wasn't embarrassed, it was others who would feel awkward.
In Tobirama's Office.
After learning about Hidan's abilities, an experimental product from the Jashin Cult of Yugakure, he immediately became interested.
"Danzo, I have a task for you."
"Yes, Tobirama-sensei."
Danzo was pleased that Senju Tobirama entrusted him with this task.
What does this mean?
It means he held a certain position in Tobirama's eyes.
Otherwise, why wouldn't he give the task to Torifu, Homura, or Koharu, but instead to him?
"I need you to go to Yugakure and investigate if the Jashin Cult has appeared."
"Tobirama-sensei, don't worry, just leave the mission to me. I'll set off after watching the video."
"No rush; we'll leave tomorrow."
"Okay, Tobirama-sensei."
[Hidan is strong in close combat, but he can't handle Kakuzu, who is great at long-range attacks.]
[Then, Hidan, looking arrogant, gets killed by Kakuzu and comes back to life. Orochimaru, watching from the side, comments: Joining the Akatsuki influenced his preaching.]
[Kakuzu is unhappy about Hidan being his teammate, but when he learns he doesn't have to pay Hidan a salary, he excitedly says: Good brother, from today on, you are my adopted son.]
Hidan: ???
Are we brothers or are you calling me your son?
Damn it, Kakuzu, you're making me so confused!
