Orochimaru's Allah's Lamp

Chapter 278 A worthy death

"After exploring Orochimaru back to the village, I will leave it to you regarding the physical enhancement surgery."

Tiandao Payne said slowly.

Although he had already seen Orochimaru's peculiar sensory ability, Nagato did not believe that the other party could keep it open at all times.

Even if you are yourself, you will only use the 'Rain Tiger Free Technique' when you enter a defensive state.

Nagato never believed that the opponent was stronger than himself in terms of endurance, but he was from the Uzumaki clan.

Therefore, the White Zetsu clone intelligence system under the masked man should still be able to be used.

Obito nodded slightly, "No problem."

Today, his purpose of coming here to make a fuss has been achieved. After that, he should use the intelligence obtained from Konoha to scare people and try to make the conflict between the organization and Konoha break out as soon as possible.

With one last glance at the expressionless Payne, Obito sneered in his heart and was about to leave.

At this time, Payne stopped him.

"What else do you have to do?" Obito raised his eyebrows.

"I heard someone say that the reason why Orochimaru's body-enhancing surgery has the self-healing ability is that he obtained some kind of results on the corpse of the White Zetsu clone."

Tiandao Payne looked at the masked man calmly and said calmly, "What do you think of this?"

Obito was shocked when he saw Tendo Payne, but on the surface he remained calm, "Who said that? It's just nonsense. What kind of physical strengthening surgery? I heard that Orochimaru had researched it a long time ago.

.”

"Indeed, Orochimaru's research has been going on for a long time, but it only took the past two years to reduce the mortality rate of experimental subjects. As for who told me..."

Tendo Payne took a deep look at the masked man and said, "It's very simple. Someone in the organization has participated in Orochimaru's experiments as an assistant."

Obito was shocked, and a name came to mind, "Kabuto Yakushi?"

"Yes, that's him."

Tendou Payne said slowly, "According to what Yakushi Kabuto said, you designed the Kumogakure envoy to die in the Hyuga tribe that night. After Orochimaru fought with you, you obtained the body of the White Zetsu clone."

"Since Kabuto Yakushi defected later, he doesn't know the detailed research process, but one thing can be concluded that such a huge progress is absolutely inseparable from the White Zetsu clone."

"Yakushi Kabuto transformed his body step by step from Orochimaru, from an ordinary ninja to what he is now. I believe what he says."

Tiandao Payne narrowed his eyes slightly, "So, let me ask you again..."

"Does Bai Jue have the ability to heal injuries?"

"..."

"Oh……"

Under Tiandao Payne's silent gaze, Obito was silent for a moment, and then suddenly laughed,

"Bai Jue naturally has the ability to heal injuries, but only for themselves. This is due to their own special physique."

"As for how Orochimaru transferred this ability to others, I don't know. Bai Zetsu doesn't have this ability either."

"Oh, really?" Tiandao Pain was noncommittal, but did not dwell on the issue anymore and asked instead, "Then I can borrow a few White Jutsu from you to help Yakushi Kabuto with his research. Shouldn't it be no problem?"

"what ever."

Obito's expression instantly turned gloomy, and he sneered a few times in his heart.

Even if he refuses now, I am afraid that in a few days, he will receive a message that the 'Konoha ninja' attacked the White Zetsu clone.

But even if there is dissatisfaction in my heart, it is difficult to vent it at this time.

It is normal to hide one's hand from an ally, but what should not be done is to let the other party discover it.

After such an incident in front of him, Obito's good mood was instantly destroyed, but with a change of heart, he said again,

"Kabuto Yakushi, after all, I don't know anything about Orochimaru. If you really want to study some kind of physical enhancement surgery, you'd better find a few other people you trust."

"I'll consider it."

Tiandao Payne's expression remained unchanged, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Seeing this, Obito said nothing and disappeared directly into the whirlpool.

After the interview room was silent for a moment, a cold female voice suddenly sounded.

"The masked man is not telling the truth."

The shadows in the corner of Xiaonan's ceiling floated down, "If Orochimaru can develop the kind of surgery on Bai Zetsu, Bai Zetsu's body must be stronger, but he has never mentioned this before."

Konan has always been prejudiced against masked people who hide their heads and tails. In other words, she is always on guard against anyone with the power to threaten Nagato.

"I know."

Tiandao Pain...or rather, Nagato shook his head and said slowly, "This is cooperation based on everyone's own thoughts."

In fact, it was not a bad idea to capture a few White Zetsu clones for research in private. The reason why Nagato pointed them out was that he really couldn't stand the masked man who was clearly using him for his own selfish desires, yet he still had to act like he was doing it for his own good.

, it’s really disgusting.

Nagato turned to look at Konan, "By the way, is there a suitable candidate for the ninja who is good at body modification and cell surgery?"

Your research on the Bai Jue Branch is of great importance, and he will naturally not let Yakushi Kabuto take over it entirely.

After hearing this, Xiao Nan frowned slightly, "I've found it, but these people are not good."

There is the last Sora Ninja who is planning to carry out a terrorist attack in Konoha, there is the leader of the Yellow Spring Sect who runs an evil religion and intends to start a rebellion, and there is the Konoha S-class rebel Ninja Hiru who rebels against the village because he dislikes his lack of strength.

call……

Each character has its own bad qualities, but they all have one thing in common: they are all not good.

After listening to the people introduced by Xiaonan, Nagato nodded slightly, "As long as your personal ability is passable."

If you search in the cesspit, you will only find these smelly and hard stones, or maggots covered in filth, so you have no choice.

However, this is exactly what Nagato wants.

Although it is for the sake of peace in the ninja world, rather than letting people with lofty ideals die, it is better to let these greedy and despicable scum die.

He could no longer bear the death of one of his companions.

Although Tendo Payne had no expression on his face, Xiaonan had lived and died with Nagato for so long, so he naturally knew what he was thinking, and he sighed softly,

"Nagato, that's not your fault."

Tiandao Payne did not answer. He stared at the darkness ahead without saying a word.

…

Fire Nation Border.

Konoha's secret fortress base.

As soon as Orochimaru, Kakashi and the others jumped from the treetops to the door, Jiraiya came out to greet them.

"Hahaha, Orochimaru, you..."

Jiraiya went out laughing. He was about to laugh and curse a few words, but after seeing Orochimaru's current figure, his voice got stuck in his throat. It took him a long time to say, "Have you... become shorter?"

The two were about the same height before, Jiraiya was a strong man with a height of 1.9 meters, and although Orochimaru was a little thin, he was also 1.8 meters tall with shoes on.

In comparison, Orochimaru in front of him seems a bit small. He's 1.7 meters, no... I can only say 1.6 meters upwards.

Hearing what Jiraiya said, everyone's eyes fell on the 'big' Shemaru, and their eyes became a little strange, especially Kakashi's group.

In fact, they had discovered the changes in Orochimaru early on, but he was the 'Konoha Sannin' after all, and he showed great power as soon as he appeared on the scene. Who dared to gossip with him about this matter without opening his eyes.

In other words, this person is Jiraiya.

Orochimaru's expression remained unchanged, "I ran an experiment and something went wrong."

It was my first time to perform the slug splitting technique, so I had some errors in my grasp of body size, but this was just a minor matter and did not affect my combat effectiveness.

Jiraiya heard this but misunderstood, and sighed, "That's right, otherwise you wouldn't have not shown up for more than a year."

After saying that, he glanced at Kakashi and others again, "Come in, I have a general understanding of the situation. I will discuss the specific matters of the mission with the village liaison, and I need a few of you to go there."

Kakashi and Uchiha Shinsuke looked at each other and nodded.

The group of people entered the fortress and went to their assigned rooms to rest, while Orochimaru followed Jiraiya to the conference room.

Entering the room, Jiraiya put away the smile on his face and looked a little angry, "These grass ninjas are becoming more and more bold."

"This is not called boldness, this is called having confidence."

Orochimaru pulled up a chair and sat down, half-smiling but not smiling, "Right now, our high-end combat power cannot beat the Payne Six Paths of the Akatsuki organization. This is a fact."

With the difference in numbers, Konoha is not unable to defeat the Akatsuki organization, but the Third Hokage is obviously not willing to suffer this loss.

And since we don't want to go head-to-head, we can only take this soft knife, which is what we should do.

Although the Kusanagi have the Akatsuki organization as their backers, in the final analysis, it is not their own strength, and they are also testing Konoha's bottom line. In essence, they are still competing between the Kingdom of Earth, the Kingdom of Thunder and the Kingdom of Fire, and are pulling to the extreme.

"By the way, I remember Nagato is still your disciple."

A smile appeared on Orochimaru's face, "Listen to me, and sending them to death might be an appropriate approach."

"You gave them power, but now they seem to be suffering even more."

"Penn...heh, in the name of pain, this is really...tsk tsk."

Bringing up old things again, Jiraiya felt a little depressed, but he still shook his head, his tone unwavering,

"Only those three years of teaching, I will never regret. They are all excellent children..."

"Wait a minute." Orochimaru interrupted Jiraiya and said with a smile, "You still want to say that Nagato is the so-called 'child of destiny'?"

Jiraiya was silent for a moment and nodded slightly, "It is possible."

"So...if you had that chance, you wouldn't necessarily kill him?"

Orochimaru twitched the corners of his mouth in an obvious mockery, "Not to mention the Son of Destiny, he does have extremely strong power now. Except for the former First Hokage, I am afraid no one can be his opponent."

"If you still hold such weak thoughts, you will definitely die in his hands."

"That's why..." Jiraiya's voice suddenly rose a lot, "That's why we need to guide him."

"Guide, how do you want to guide him?"

Orochimaru smiled and said, "I also had a brief conversation with the current Nagato. His current goal is to use absolute force to achieve peace in the ninja world."

"So, Jiraiya, if you want to deny his path, is there a better way to achieve this goal?"

Jiraiya was startled and opened his mouth, but no words came out.

This problem is inconsistent with his current position in life.

According to the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage, he will meet the 'child of destiny' who can change the ninja world and become his teacher.

And one day after that, your choice will cause the 'child of destiny' to make the same choice. This choice will bring prosperity or destruction to the ninja world.

The predictions made by the Great Toad Immortal are unclear, and the only thing that can be believed is that they will never go wrong.

Jiraiya thought a lot about this, what was so special about him that could influence the 'Child of Destiny'.

After thinking about it, he could only think of the 'Ninja Way' as a ninja, which was the spirit he carried out throughout his life.

But the way of tolerance, spirituality... are all metaphysical ideas in the final analysis. They do not have clear steps and are not a specific path.

Therefore, only the 'child of destiny' who can find the right path can truly do it.

It is really difficult for Jiraiya to answer this question.

"Look, you actually don't know, right?"

So Orochimaru didn't believe all this and denied the so-called prophecy from the beginning.

From his perspective, everything requires a process and cannot be accomplished overnight.

Just like in the historical stories of other worlds told by the Djinn God, the First Emperor who achieved great unification also wanted to "fight the remaining heroes of the sixth generation".

To be honest, if Nagato didn't have Obito behind his back, it would not be impossible to rule the ninja world by force.

This is no longer the era of the first Hokage Senju Hashirama.

Today, most ninjas put aside their families and consider themselves the ninjas of a certain village. In the future, it is possible to eliminate national distinctions and consider themselves the ninja tools of a unified country. This is not a big step.

But what can I say, Nagato and the others have no intention of working in this direction.

They were dissatisfied that the first Hokage Senju Hashirama only built a village even though they clearly had the power to end the ninja world. But in the end, what they did was just picking off people's wisdom.

If you haven't seen it, you can't imagine what a unified country should look like. The direction they are working towards now is just a seemingly perfect 'paradise'.

Haha... Young people's views are too idealistic. They don't know that this thing only exists in dreams and has no possibility of realization.

What's more, Orochimaru himself has already planned the future development direction of the ninja world.

And Jiraiya is also a very important part of it. Instead of letting him be so confused, it is better to do some practical things to support his own career.

Orochimaru licked his lips and said to the somewhat dejected Jiraiya,

"Since you don't know what to do, don't try to give him advice, otherwise it will only have the opposite effect."

"Heh, maybe your disciples will kill you directly with the idea of ​​'this is the price of ideals'."

"After all, in their current state, in order to deny their own pain, they really need to prove this awareness."

Hearing this, Jiraiya suddenly raised his head and said in a surprised tone,

"So, a few years ago, when you were obsessed with chasing immortality and almost broke up with the old man, you were thinking about these things?"
