“What about Tsunade?” Orochimaru had chosen a fourth option: D. None of The Above. It was probably not the most strategic choice, but a little scientific inquiry before a decision never hurt anyone.
“What about her?”
Jiraiya’s expression was soft, and Orochimaru studied it carefully under the bright beam of pale moonlight that streamed through the window. He wasn’t sure he had ever seen Jiraiya’s expression like this, but maybe that was only because it was partially obscured in his shadow.
