Orochimaru found it a bit funny. It was novel for him that a four-year-old child asked such a question.

But I still expressed my point of view as an education to this boy of the Uchiha clan.

"While alive?"

Itachi glanced at Orochimaru in confusion.

This man, who exudes a cold aura all over his body, has a pale face and snake-like vertical pupils.

Itachi looked at him without fear, with an inquiring look in his eyes.

Orochimaru glanced at Itachi thoughtfully.

This child seems a little different, he thought to himself.

Ordinary children would have been frightened to tears and hid aside if they were stared at like this.

And... is this exploring the meaning of life with him?

After discussing with a four-year-old child, Orochimaru always felt that something was not quite right.

However, seeing Itachi's serious eyes full of curiosity, Orochimaru's eyes softened and he answered him with a smile:

"Yes. For me, if life has meaning, then the meaning lies in eternal life."

After saying that, Orochimaru left without any hesitation.

Before leaving, he cast a vague glance at Kakashi.

Itachi stared at Orochimaru's leaving figure, thinking seriously on his immature face, thinking about Orochimaru's answer just now.

Kakashi on the other side noticed the look in Orochimaru's eyes before leaving, which was an invitation for him to come over and be a guest.

Does this mean that I want to become a five-face spy? Kakashi felt sarcastic to himself.
