Orochimaru's Allah's Lamp

Danzo looked directly into the eyes of the chief researcher and said calmly, "How long will it take to recover?"

"...Well, your body has undergone a lot of changes after being strengthened by the first-generation cells. We cannot judge it based on our usual experience."

The chief researcher responded quickly and immediately gave a reasonable reason.

Danzo withdrew his eyes and said slowly, "You are very good at explaining."

In fact, he has no wife and no children, so he doesn't care what he looks like now. Being able to exchange a mere appearance for real power, this deal couldn't be more cost-effective.

However, what Danzo needs to worry about is what impact this honor will have on Konoha.

Although he could win sympathy as a victim and put all the blame on Kabuto, it would be troublesome if Orochimaru saw something and accused him of secretly conducting first-generation cell transplant experiments.

Hearing the disbelief in Danzo's words, the chief researcher said anxiously, "Sir, I am telling the truth this time."

In order for Danzo's operation to be successful, he almost threw away his entire family fortune. Although he had no regrets if he failed, he had to start thinking about the future if he succeeded now.

Danzo's research funds could not be cut off, but he had to increase his investment.

The chief researcher didn't care whether Danzo was listening or understood. Taking advantage of Danzo's good mood, he began to talk about his bitterness, focusing on how much effort he put in to make this operation that should have failed succeed.

"...Danzo-sama, before the transplant, your body was old and the chakra strength was not strong enough, so I used... blah blah blah... You know, the reason why your whole body has changed so drastically is because you have achieved perfection at the cellular level.

Fusion, this is a technological breakthrough that even Orochimaru has not been able to achieve..."

"alright."

Danzo interrupted the chief researcher's chatter, "Since you said yes, let's prepare a training schedule."

"...But sir, laboratory materials and funds are not enough right now."

The chief researcher lowered his eyebrows and said, "In order for the operation to be successful, too many precious materials were used to make a nutrient solution to nourish the body..."

"You don't have to worry about money."

Danzo looks like a rich and wealthy man.

Although the roots were destroyed, the external capital chain was not. Soon afterwards, he could use this as an excuse to make another payment to the third generation.

"Thank you, Danzo-sama." The chief researcher lowered his head and smiled slightly.

…

The sky is bright and the red sun is rising high.

After several days of traveling, Orochimaru and his party rushed back to Konoha Village after concluding the peace talks with Kumogakure.

Lin Mu quickly retreated, seeing the village gate getting closer and closer, almost everyone couldn't help but smile on their faces.

This trip was almost without incident, and I easily completed an S-level mission. It not only enhanced my resume, but also earned me a free reward. It was really a pleasure.

Swish, swish, swish...

After a few bursts of wind, Orochimaru led the Konoha team to the front of Konoha's gate.

Just like last time, Orochimaru left the trivial matters such as submitting tasks and organizing action logs to Hizashi, while he rushed directly towards the laboratory.

But before he went too far, he was stopped by a figure.

Orochimaru stopped on the treetops and said with a smile,

"Jiraiya, you are not in front of the gate. Instead, you are waiting for me here. What's the matter?"

"A few days ago, Kabuto defected." Jiraiya looked seriously and stared at Orochimaru with sharp eyes, "Do you know about this?"

"I know."

A strange light flashed in Orochimaru's eyes, and he nodded slightly, "I will deal with this matter later."

"This is no longer your business alone."

Jiraiya shook his head, "Kabuto attacked the root before defecting and almost destroyed it. Danzo has long known about your itinerary and is now in the Hokage room, forcing the old man to judge you."

"If you have anything to do, let it go first. You have to think of your words quickly to deal with Danzo's questioning."

Jiraiya didn't know if Kabuto's attack on the root was under Orochimaru's instructions, but due to reasons, he could not let Orochimaru be forced too far by Danzo, even to the point of betraying the village.

"You came here just to tell me this?"

Orochimaru smiled and said, "Don't worry, after I learned about this, I already thought of my excuse."

Seeing that Orochimaru's expression was as normal and calm as ever, Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then come with me."

In addition to reminding Orochimaru, he also has the task of bringing him to the Hokage's room. This is something that ordinary people can't do and Orochimaru may not give him face.

While running towards the Hokage room, Jiraiya couldn't restrain the doubts in his heart and asked,

"What happened in Kabuto was not instigated by you."

Orochimaru glanced at him and asked directly, "Why should I do this? Just to destroy Danzo's roots?"

Jiraiya was startled for a moment, a little speechless.

He discussed the reason with the old man for several days, but still couldn't figure it out. If Orochimaru was dissatisfied with Danzo and Nebe, there were many ways.

No matter how bad it is, you can still cooperate with the old man. Why choose this strategy of "hurt the enemy a thousand and lose hundreds to yourself", which is really unwise.

No matter how you think about it, this is of no benefit to Orochimaru.

But for the Third Generation and Jiraiya to admit that Orochimaru was indeed negligent and that he knew nothing about the defection of his subordinates, he was somewhat unwilling to accept it psychologically.

Full of worries and doubts, Jiraiya followed Orochimaru, and not long after, he arrived at the center of Konoha Village - the Hokage Building.

After entering the Hokage room, a solemn and solemn atmosphere hit us. Led by the old man, three Hokage advisors, Jonin squad leader Nara Shikaku, and several wealthy ninja clans... almost all of them were present.

Orochimaru looked around and couldn't help but sneer in his heart, what a grand scene.

It is conceivable that this is definitely not Sandai's handiwork. From his perspective, he probably wants to suppress this matter by turning it into a major issue and a trivial one.

But the roots were half destroyed and he was almost removed from Konoha. How could Danzo let the Third Generation do anything about such a big thing.

With such a big commotion, it was obvious that Danzo wanted to give him a fatal blow, or at least completely eliminate his own reputation and become a marginal figure.

But...it just so happened that he also had this idea.

Orochimaru glanced at Danzo, whose aura was a bit off, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

When the last two people who came in took their seats, the meeting officially began.

It was not Danzo who spoke first, but Koharu, who was the advisor to the Hokage. She frowned and said in a deep voice,

"Orochimaru, a few days ago, your pharmacist rebelled against the village and brought Danzo down to earth. What do you have to say about this matter?"

The situation was serious, so Xiaochun's attitude slowed down a bit and he did not dare to threaten her.

Orochimaru said slowly, "Since you have rebelled against the village, let's send people to hunt him down. What's there to say?"
