Chapter 293:
Under Orochimaru's mysterious and overwhelming power, Kushina couldn't even entertain the thought of resisting.
She could only obediently handle his daily needs—food, clothing, and shelter—as though it was the most natural thing in the world.
Orochimaru's personal spatial techniques and system storage abilities rendered typical tools like scrolls obsolete. Unlike during his time in Konoha, where he kept these abilities hidden, he now used them openly.
As a result, the cabin was fully equipped with all necessities, a testament to his meticulous preparation.
Lying comfortably on a makeshift bed, Orochimaru rested with his eyes closed.
He wasn't the least bit worried about Kushina attacking him.
For one, she had no reason to. And even if she did, she was unarmed, and her fists alone couldn't possibly harm him.
So, he allowed himself this moment of relaxation.
"Why do you still help Konoha when you've defected?"
