Chapter 47: Orochimaru: "You Don't Think Sasuke Can Turn Me Over, Do You?"
After staying in the Land of Waves for about a month, we finally received a response from the other side. "This is the 35 million taels we prepared. Please count it," said Haku as he respectfully handed over the cashbox.
"Why are you alone? If you didn't kill him, why didn't you come over?" Sasuke squinted at Shiro while inquiring.
Haku smiled awkwardly and explained, "The adults do not heal fully from their injuries..." The truth was that after Sasuke collected the money, there was a fear of the others being detained. Moreover, Zabuza had been psychologically affected by Sasuke last time, both physically and mentally. He didn't want to face Sasuke at all! That's why Haku was sent to deliver the payment.
"Okay," Sasuke accepted the money and brought the beheading knife over. "You still owe me 15 million taels. Remember, you can use this beheading knife temporarily, but it still belongs to me until the debt is settled."
"Yes, we understand," Haku nodded earnestly.
Next, Mr. Zabuza and I might have to work hard to earn enough money to pay off the beheading sword. I'm unsure if we can ever get rid of this debt...
"I actually kind of hope you default on your debts," Sasuke mentioned, seeing through Haku's thoughts. "That way, when I see you next time, I can capture you and sell you to the underground black market without feeling guilty."
Haku, startled, replied awkwardly, "That won't happen, Mr. Zabuzhan and I will work diligently to repay the money..."
After Haku left, Sasuke distributed 15 million taels to Kakashi, saying, "Zai Fu Zhan was caught by me, so his 20 million taels are mine. The 15 million taels from the ice escape ninja are for you."
Kakashi's eyelids twitched. That's 15 million taels! Sasuke was being very generous. Seeing Sasuke's firm attitude, Kakashi didn't argue much. "Well, if that's the case, the three of us will split the 15 million taels equally. Naruto, little Sakura, you two get 5 million taels each."
An S-level task generally only pays 1 million taels! For Naruto and little Sakura, 5 million taels was a vast sum.
"Huh? We get that much?!" said Naruto, stunned by the amount. "5 million taels! That's enough for so many bowls of Ichiraku ramen!"
Sakura gladly accepted it, thanking Sasuke sweetly, "Please deposit my share with you, Mr. Sasuke, and you can use it directly if needed."
The mission in the Land of Waves was now concluded, and the four members of Team Seven set off for home.
Tao Di cursed himself — "Damn it!" All of his money was gone. He and Haku had worked for several years to save 35 million taels, and it had all vanished in a flash. Now they were in debt by 15 million taels! His heart felt shattered.
Haku, however, saw a silver lining, "Great, Master Zabuza from another world survived!"
Uzumaki Naruto couldn't contain his excitement, "5 million! When could I ever have so much money!"
Inuzuka Kiba expressed his envy clearly, "Damn it, I wish I were teammates with that world's Sasuke!"
Rock Lee said, "Being a teammate with Sasuke may bring some psychological challenges, but the potential reward of 5 million taels is an incredible surprise!"
Akimichi Chōji remarked, "Envy at 5 million taels. I wonder how long it will last."
Ebisu exclaimed, "Damn it, that was so moving!"
Yuhihong mentioned, "5 million taels is a vast amount of money for Jōnin!"
Nara Shikamaru reflected, "In that world, Sasuke is actually quite kind to his companions, and he also possesses a strong mentality."
The image on the gold-framed screen slowly faded.
The mission in the wave country in the parallel world had ended.
On the silver-framed screen, the experiences of the Chūnin exam began to play.
"The seventh class has gained a lot of experience in the country of waves and improved their strength considerably. They all participated in the Chūnin exam."
"Before the first test began, Sasuke faced a challenge from Rock Lee. He thought he could easily handle his opponent but found he couldn't match Lee's speed."
"After passing the first exam, Sasuke and the others were attacked by Orochimaru in the Forest of Death!"
"Sasuke, having almost lost his will to fight, was inspired by Naruto to gather the courage to battle Orochimaru fiercely. However, he was eventually defeated, received a curse mark, and fell into a coma."
"The Sound ninja trio attacks, and under the curse seal's influence, Sasuke unleashes great power. But his temperament changes significantly, and he almost loses control."
"In the preliminary rounds before the third test, Sasuke manages to overcome his opponent despite the curse seal's side effects."
"Kakashi temporarily controls Sasuke's seal using a technique."
Uchiha Fugaku exclaimed, "Orochimaru?! Why are you targeting Sasuke?"
Orochimaru replied with a smirk, "Naturally, because Sasuke's talent is something I find valuable."
Jiraiya questioned, "Orochimaru, did you complete that Forbidden Technique?"
Uchiha Mikoto expressed concern, "Can the curse mark be removed? I hope Sasuke won't be harmed."
Onoki observed, "The contrast is stark. In another world, Uchiha Sasuke was easily captured, but here, even Orochimaru lost his fighting spirit due to fear."
Hatake Kakashi noted, "Orochimaru and Zabuza cannot be compared at all..." He remembered how he too had been frightened by Orochimaru once.
Momochi, no longer chopping, chuckled, "It seems Orochimaru's the next one to be featured. I'm looking forward to it."
Red Sand Scorpion teased, "Orochimaru, try not to embarrass yourself next time."
Orochimaru declared confidently, "Do you guys really think Sasuke can defeat me?"
He had underestimated Sasuke's abilities.
Indeed, the Sasuke from another world was highly talented and strong.
But this was Orochimaru!
A veteran Kage-level ninja!
He might be surprised by Sasuke's strength at most.
But to think he could be defeated?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
