What are the secrets of Orochimaru’s history?
Orochimaru: Well, I suppose it would have to go back to my father....
Anko: Wha- Konohamaru?
Konohamaru: Easy, I’m a member of the Konoha Border Guard. You managed to make your way back to the village and we brought you to the hospital to patch you up. What happened to you anyway? Were you captured by the enemy?
Anko: Yeah, that’s about it. I was tracking Kabuto but he was baiting me and captured me. He...he wanted me to amplify his powers. He had take Orochimaru’s power as his own....
Konohamaru: He was the one using Edo Tensei. So has he been taken care of....
Anko: Yeah, yeah.... Back at his cave he was in a trance. He’d been placed under some kind of super Genjutsu. When I woke up I limped back here...yeah that’s right...but I remember other people.....
[The kunoichi put’s her hands on her head, trying to think.]
Anko: Yes, there was that group led by....Sasuke Uchiha! And they used me too....they did something with me......what was it?
Konohamaru: You should relax a bit Anko. You don’t have to force it.
Anko: No, no I’m just...cloudy is all. I can remember.....they [looks at her Curse Mark] used me to....access the remnants of ‘his’ presence....they used my Curse Mark to bring him back.... huh, they < Orochimaru emerging from her Curse Mark > used me to revive Orochimaru!
Konohamaru: That no good snake bastard!
Anko: [Looking at her feet] That disease was finally erased but he’s back again. And because of me! All this time I felt it was ok to rest easy again what was left of him was sealed in the damn mark on my neck! Screw him! <Her fight with Orochimaru in the Forest of Death >
< Orochimaru: [Back when he was younger and Anko’s sensei] My child life is a fragile little thing. But what if it wasn’t? What if someone was able to break the limits of human vulnerability and unlock our perfection? Quite a though eh, kukukukukukukuku. >
Anko: All he wants is Godhood....there’s no shred of decency in him...... anyone can be hurt.......monster.......
[Konohamaru put’s a hand on her shoulder and gives her a reassuring smile.]
Konohamaru: The boss and everyone are stronger now. If that snake slithers over and shows his ugly mug he’ll get pounded!
Anko: I wouldn’t be so confident. Orochimaru is sick and deadly. He’s caused unimaginable suffering and chaos. It’s going to have to take some ninja to bury him again. Even when he was my sensei, deep down he sent chills through me....how can someone of such pure evil exist?
Orochimaru: It was always the same when I was little – my parents and I, just me and my mother if father was away on a mission, would go to the shrine every day at the crack of dawn....
< A very young Orochimaru with his mother, a short women with should length chestnut-coloured hair, and his father, who he is the spitting image of, go to a shrine on the outskirts of Kirigakure. >
Orochimaru: My full name is Orochimaru Hagoromo. My clan has deeply worshipped and respected the Sage of the Six Paths since allegedly when he was alive. We lived in Kirigakure.
< Orochimaru’s father when he was younger getting a mission briefing from the First Mizukage. >
Orochimaru: My father was named Oroku and one of the First Mizukage’s most trusted subordinates. < The first meeting of the Five Kage > He even acted as his bodyguard during the first ever meeting of the Five Kage! He met my mother in his late thirties and a few years later I was born. Soon my father grew...disillusioned...and wished for a better life for our little family.
< Oroku walking away with an emotionless expression after assassinating a spy and getting into an argument with the First Mizukage. Sometime later Oroku, his wife, and young Orochimaru have one last prayer at Hagoromo clan shrine and emigrate to Konoha. Tobirama agrees to grant them Konoha citizenship. >
< Orochimaru: Father, we did we come here. We always went to the shrine to pray but what now? We had a place in the clan and you were one of the most distinguished shinobi in Kirigakure. Why give up the power?
Oroku: Son, [wraps his arm around Orochimaru’s shoulder] power isn’t everything to me. My universe is you and your mother. I grew up a proud member of the Hagoromo clan. But, we should not be bound by tradition and forced to live out lives planned by our ancestors. We must embrace our individuality. Kirigakure is a violent village too and not all that suitable for family life. The Second Hokage was kind enough to allow us to live here. Never forget this; your history is important but your life now is not that of Orochimaru Hagoromo but Orochimaru of Konoha! Never become invisible my boy. You're a good child, live a nice life by your own ideology. >
Orochimaru: Kukukkuk, my father...what an idiot. Even then it didn’t properly click in my mind how could one place abstract ideas such as sentimentality over the allure of power and control. Well, I guess he learned his lesson....
< Oroku hugs his son as he drops him off to the Academy. He reads up about a Missing-Nin rumoured to be having been sighted on the outskirts of the village. He arrives back home to find the door open and muddy footprints on the way in. When he reaches the kitchen, his once lovely wife has been reduced to a bloody pile of guts and insides. There’s a cut on her face and her stomach has been stabbed and ripped up as her organs litter the floor. The murderer is a man of above-average height, bald with scars on his head and chest and wields a katana – the murder weapon.
Oroku: You sick depraved animal!! My wife...my w-wife....I’ll F**CKING KILL YOU!!! AAAAAHHHHH!!!
[The man lunges ahead his approaching opponent and they clash their blades. Their battle goes through the house, ultimately with it spilling into the forest outside the village when the missing-nin tries to flee. They bump into a squad of Sunagakure ninja. Oroku pays them no heed has uses a Water Clone to hold his enemy as he then decapitates him. ]
Sunagakure Ninja: Hey, you’re Oroku Hagoromo. You have quite a reputation, we can see why. Let’s get him boys, he’ll be a good war captive.
[Oroku now must again go into battle. He takes out two ninja before being stabbed by another two as the leader goes to chop off a limb.]
Oroku: (Orochimaru, forgive me....I’ll see you soon, my love....)
[He makes handsigns uses the Water Style: Water Wall Jutsu to guard himself and then commits suicide to escape capture.]
[The missing-nin was lurking around the village because he was wanted by Kirigakure for war crimes, and Oroku had to kill himself to escape capture by enemies as the world was at war. Therefore, in short both killings were considered K.I.A during war.] >
Orochimaru: I would forsake my clan name. Soon after I would become a member of Team Hiruzen. You knew the story from there. I guess it was my clan’s worship of the Sage of the Six Paths that laid the foundation of my interest in biology and the secrets of Ninjutsu. Heh, I hate to admit it but Jiraiya was probably right. The reason I started researching immortality was probably because of my parents. But, I forgot about them. Unlimited knowledge is all that matters. Before this, I also told Sasuke-kun of my story. It’s cute, he wanted to know my motives for attacking Konoha. The answer is that I resented it because I could have used the Hagoromo clan and been better suited to discover the untold secrets of the Sage. But it was destroyed by Kirigakure soon after I left. Konoha was a stupid, optimistic dreamland of my father’s. It had gotten in the way of my research opportunities. I didn't even get a compromise – I wasn’t made Hokage and had to put up with being in a weak team. Hiruzen was a naive old man, Jiraiya a genetically atrocious loser, and Tsunade was the worst!
[Tsunade is fighting Madara who’s using his Full-body Susano’o. She slaps the sword out of her way and beats it down into submission. She runs at Madara and goes for a kick but he blocks it with his gunbai and uses Almighty Push. She is on the ground on her knees as the other Kage press on to attack.]
Orochimaru: She had a strong heritage but wasted it. She is a brilliant medic and a strong ninja, but nothing extraordinary like Jiraiya to my surprise or my genius. She was the weak link, just like you.
Sakura: You had chances to be good but wouldn't take them. You weren't born evil despite what you want to believe but you grew that way because you wanted to be. You make me sick. And you don’t know as much as you think. My master is the Hokage and an astounding kunoichi, I should be the same. [The diamond on her head grows into facial marking as the Byakugo seal begins to heal her stab wound and she regains her strength. ]
Orochimaru: Kukkukukuku, you are useless. I’ll end this here [spits out the Kusanagi.]
Sakura: I’m not standing back and watching anymore. I head to the frontlines. I’m a strong kunoichi of Konoha!
Sakura put’s it all on the line!
Ok, this is longer than usual. I hope everyone liked my Orochimaru flashback. Again share your thoughts on the chapter. And yes Oroku is an intentional reference to The Shredder.
