He cared about establishing order, but not about people. To him, people are expendable assets to further his goals.
Regardless, he knew that the village was nothing without its people. That he respected and he would save those in need. What he did mean was that every shinobi was expandable and should die in battle.
He cared about Konoha as a political entity but would easily kill everyone in it if he could replace them with other Shinobi loyal to his cause. If everyone was dead( including the 4 other nations) besides only the root members, he'd probably be fine with that.
nah.. orochimaru never had any morals to begin with. if not for danzo he might have been less power or knowledgeable (and thus less dangerous) though.
Yeah uh wrong. He cared for, inspired and mourned Tsunade's brother, was scared Itachi would die in his sharingan training and felt pity for Nagato, Konan and Yahiko as homeless children.
rofl. someone prove him wrong for me pls im too bored to look for the hiruzen in the experiment lab scan.
What I'm referring to was before he went mad and experimented on people.
I thought Hiru said he became evil because he didn't let him become Hokage..
the scan is a flashback on hiruzen thinking about orochimaru when orochimaru was just a kid.
oh, and orochimaru was expelled from the village way before itachi even aquired the 2 tomoe sharingan.
No, Orochimaru resented him because he wouldn't let him become Hokage.
...And your point is?
Incorrect. Orochimaru wasn't expelled from Konoha. He fled after Hiruzen caught him.
And Itachi was the Uchiha boy Orochimaru was watching in the training room using his sharingan to practice with his kunai.
You must be registered for see linksthere. done.
He didn't pity the rain children, he thought they should put them out of their misery. He thought they would be better off dead.
Danzo didn't turn him he enabled him for his own purposes. Who do you think gave Danzo Hashi's cells and put all of those Uchiha eyes on his arm?
