Chapter 26 Winning over!

"A very good suggestion, but it's a pity..."

Naoki shook his head slightly and rejected Orochimaru's proposal. For Orochimaru today, cooperation may not be enough.

A smile appeared on Orochimaru's face: "That's such a shame."

"With the help of the rope tree, I might be able to achieve my goal faster."

Orochimaru was not surprised by the rejection of the rope tree, after all, the other party was not the real rope tree at all.

The rope tree standing in front of him was just another person with the appearance of the rope tree.

This is a taboo created by Danzo, an existence created by touching someone he shouldn't touch.

Rope Tree: “Purpose?”

"Eternal life?"

When Naoki uttered the word immortality, Orochimaru's expression changed slightly.

Nashu continued: "Looking at the people around you passing away one by one, and the feeling of powerlessness and sadness, shouldn't the teacher pursue strength instead?"

These words made Orochimaru's pupils shrink, like lightning striking in his heart. How could the other party know the original reason for his pursuit?

"Eternal life is a curse. You can only watch the people you were close to, the people you loved, and the people you were reluctant to leave gradually leaving. It can be said to be the most vicious curse in the world."

"Teacher, do you really want to pursue this vicious curse?" Shen Shu looked at him meaningfully.

These words that penetrated Orochimaru's heart made him laugh hoarsely and look at the familiar face in front of him.

"It's really a unique insight, but the fragile decay of life, the meaningless death, disappears so easily."

Orochimaru stretched out his hand and shook it gently, as if the disappearance of life was so simple.

"Rose Tree, you don't understand the charm of eternal life. It will give you enough time and enough waiting to let you get everything you want."

"No one can kill you. You can always live and watch everything in this world."

"And death will mean that you have nothing, leaving only a name to be circulated, until in the end no one knows this name, you are completely forgotten, and you die completely."

"There will be no trace of you or your existence in this world, and I don't want that."

Today, Orochimaru is still young, only forty years old, and his body is in the prime of life.

I am not so crazy about eternal life that I am obsessed with it, but I am still deeply fascinated and chasing after it.

His gaze was very profound. Eternal life might be a vicious curse, but he wanted to taste this curse because it had enough charm to make him addicted.

The fragility of life is like an egg in the hands of others. Destiny is not in your own hands.

The aging body, the old body, is just like his teacher, Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The existence that was once called "Ninja" now has a lot to worry about because of his old age. Even if Danzo does something, he just forgives him one by one and relies on the other party's strength.

Cowardly and pathetic!

After experiencing two ninja wars, Orochimaru has seen too much.

He had experienced the loss of life of the people around him countless times.

The most profound and unforgettable thing was the rope tree in front of him. His death completely strengthened his belief in pursuing eternal life.

"Rope Tree, come on!"

"Come with me and pursue the power of eternal life together. We can achieve everything we want."

Faced with Orochimaru's seductive tone, Naoki just looked at him calmly.

Just because...

He has already obtained the power of "eternal life".

"Teacher, I want to destroy Konoha, destroy the ninja world, destroy all the current order, and re-establish it."

"Grand reunification is necessary. The greater threat has not yet arrived, but it is not far away."

Under his calm expression, he said terrible words. Orochimaru looked at him and was slightly startled, it seemed like that!

It's like "The Rope Tree", and this expression, that firm gaze, is just like the innocence and simplicity that the "Rope Tree" had when he said he would definitely become Hokage.

Orochimaru slowly calmed down and shook his head slightly: "You can't do it. Even the leader of Akatsuki can't do it."

"You think of the ninja world too simply. You may have more power, but you don't understand human nature."

"The darkness in people's hearts will not disappear. As long as there are ambitions and desires, people's fights will not stop."

"Interests, rights, desires, all of these are corrupting existences."

Shengshu: "Teacher, I know this. I know it very well and understand it very well."

"If the teacher is willing to help me, I will also help you get eternal life and get what you want."

The slowly stretched out palm not only grew green saplings, but also pale bones.

And the bloody vertical lines on Shengshu's forehead slowly cracked open, revealing the white eyes.

Sharingan, Byakugan, Wood Release, Corpse Pulse, seeing the power of blood inheritance appear in one person, Orochimaru couldn't help but sigh at the magic of the world.

What a perfect creature this was, it could actually incorporate all of this into its body without any conflict. He wanted to know how it could do this.

Orochimaru looked deeply at the rope tree. The value of the other person seemed to be tempting him to commit a crime, but he was not sure of winning him.

This made Orochimaru laugh hoarsely, narrowed his eyes slightly, and licked lightly with his long tongue: "Maybe, you can give it a try."

Shengshu smiled, the saplings and bones in his hands converged, and the white eyes on his forehead closed again.

As long as there is enough price and benefits, his cheap teacher will definitely agree.

This is human nature, and the human heart is temporarily beyond his control.

He extended his hand to him and said slowly: "Teacher, we have a happy cooperation!"

Orochimaru looked at him meaningfully, stretched out his hand and shook it, and said at the same time: "So, what do you want to do now?"

Without even thinking about it, Shengshu said directly: "Study!"

"I lack a lot of basic knowledge, a lot of knowledge, and enough combat experience."

Orochimaru nodded slightly. Although he didn't know what the rope tree was like now, he agreed with what the other party said, which was why he agreed to the other party so easily.

It also has its own considerations. The other party itself is a wonderful work and it is a work that cannot be copied.

Not only did he awaken the First Hokage's Wood Release, he also absorbed the Corpse Veins and gained the Sharingan and Byakugan.

Orochimaru is fascinated by what kind of results these things will bring together in one person.

If the hope of "eternal life" is not in the other party, then the inspiration of "eternal life" must also be in the other party.

No matter what you do, the ultimate goal is to obtain eternal life. Cooperating with the other party does not conflict.
