Starting from pirates and conquering all worlds

The air in Konoha Village is filled with a chilling atmosphere.

Just when Shimura Danzo appeared in the Hokage's office, Orochimaru found Namikaze Minato who was hospitalized.

This is a more luxurious single room.

It's quiet, clean, and has a subtle fragrance of flowers, and all expenses are reimbursed by Konoha.

Kushina was originally here too.

But when she saw that Orochimaru had something serious to discuss with Minato, she took the initiative to go out and wait on a chair outside the door.

But his mind was always paying attention to what was going on inside.

Kushina always felt butterflies in her stomach every time she faced Orochimaru, and since Minato's legs were now crippled, he needed to be treated even more carefully.

As for Orochimaru in the ward, he really didn't have any malicious intent.

When he arrived, he first showed Namikaze Minato the wounds on his feet.

Although his medical skills are not as good as Tsunade's, they are still much better than most of the doctors in Konoha Hospital.

Moreover, his perspective on treatment is not limited to medicine, but also involves biotechnology and various ninjutsu secrets that he is good at.

"Minato-kun, I don't know what Tsunade can do, but if you ask me to treat her, I can only think of two ways."

Orochimaru spoke his thoughts with a smile on his face.

"One is to amputate the injured part, and then use the immature cloning technology I recently researched to clone two feet for you and then sew them up."

"The advantage is that it works quickly, but the disadvantage is that the risk is relatively high. What do you think? Do you want to try it?"

Minato Namikaze, who was sitting on the hospital bed, stiffened when he heard this. He immediately touched the blond hair on the back of his head in embarrassment and refused:

"Uh, Lord Orochimaru, can you listen to the second option? I don't really want to cut off my legs and feet..."

Orochimaru didn't seem too surprised.

"Hahaha, that's a pity. The second way is to try to inject a lot of life energy into your legs to rejuvenate the shriveled blood and flesh cells."

"As for the slightly shattered calf bone at the end, we can only wait for Tsunade to come over and deal with it."

Namikaze Minato felt relieved when he heard this, and at the same time showed a very sunny smile.

"This method sounds much more reassuring, Orochimaru-sama."

"But the problem is how to input life energy into you." Orochimaru looked at the other party calmly and continued: "I also have two ideas about this."

"Well...you say."

Namikaze Minato answered hesitantly, he was worried that Orochimaru would say something outrageous again.

"One is that you need to find a way to learn the Akimichi clan's doubling technique."

"According to my speculation, their doubling technique should turn the fat in the body into Yang Chakra when needed, and use it to control the body, and Yang Chakra happens to be the life energy of the human body."

really!

Namikaze Minato had a black line on his head.

Putting aside how Orochimaru could study the secret techniques of the Akimichi clan, why did he let others teach him the secret techniques?

They say it’s a secret technique!

"Hey, Orochimaru-sama, you should have second thoughts."

Namikaze Minato really didn't think this was possible.

Which ninja clan doesn't regard their secret technique as the most important secret?

"Actually, I can get the Akido Secret Technique for you, do you want to consider it?"

Orochimaru seduced meaningfully, but Namikaze Minato still firmly shook his head and refused: "No, I will never learn any family's secret technique without authorization!"

This made the former feel regretful.

He originally wanted to use this to hold a handle on Minato so that he could use it when needed in the future.

But at this moment, Namikaze Minato suddenly asked: "Lord Orochimaru, you are so troubled to think about me, you must be looking for me for something, right?"

"Hehehe, I'd better tell you my second thought first, and then I'll tell you what I need."

Orochimaru spoke leisurely and at his own pace. Seeing this, Namikaze Minato could only nod and asked, "Then tell me."

"I have some still active Hokage cells in my hand. After experimental research, I found that these cells contain extremely powerful vitality. I think it should be helpful to your feet."

"ah?"

After hearing this, Minato Namikaze had an incredulous look on his face: "Hasn't the First Hokage been dead for decades?"

"As long as you have a rough idea of ​​this kind of thing, how about you make a deal with me?" Orochimaru said with a smile.

"Wait a moment."

Namikaze Minato frowned: "Whether the First Hokage's cells are still there or not, this shouldn't be something that can be traded without permission, right?"

"Don't worry, Minato-kun, I am qualified to give it to you, and you are also qualified to get it. There will be no problem with Sarutobi-sensei."

Orochimaru also worked hard to convince the other party.

In fact, the vitality of the cells of the First Generation Hokage seems to be too strong. No matter adults, teenagers, or even babies, no one can adapt to it so far.

I just happened to see Minato's feet being drained of life force and thought of giving it a try.

As for possible accidents, that's out of his control. He didn't say it would be 100% successful...

"No, I still hope to ask the Sandaime Hokage."

Namikaze Minato had his own persistence. He paused for a moment and then said: "But Orochimaru-sama, if you need my help in any way, just say it bluntly. If I can do it, I will do my best. No need." What deal to make.”

Orochimaru was silent for a long time, and finally spoke his mind.

"You mentioned in your intelligence analysis of that Aramaki that the other party seemed to have intentionally avoided your immortal method, the Otama Rasengan, right?"

"Yes!"

Speaking of this, Namikaze Minato said seriously while recalling:

"Although the process was very short, when I used the Immortal Technique, Dayama Rasengan to attack, the opponent's eyes and movements did have strange reactions."

"After this reaction, the opponent no longer accepted our attack head-on as before. Instead, he stopped and actively avoided it."

Orochimaru nodded: "So Senjutsu Chakra may be one of the methods that the opponent is afraid of."

"one?"

Namikaze Minato keenly noticed the key point and asked doubtfully: "Have you discovered anything else?"

"There are some."

"I have read the report of Nara Shikaku and Yamanaka Kaiichi."

Orochimaru touched his chin and spoke his analysis thoughtfully.

"The former report mentioned that although the shadow imitation surgery was later lifted by Aramaki using unknown abilities, when he first came into contact with the other party's shadow, Nara Shikaku was sure that the other party's body was obviously temporarily stiff."

"This shows that the effect of ninjutsu is not completely useless, it can just be unlocked by the opponent."

"And the latter's report mentioned that when he used the art of mind turning, he clearly 'saw' a hard wall in the other party's spiritual world."

"Then does it mean that as long as the impact is strong enough, it is entirely possible to break through the opponent's mental wall?"

"In addition, I went to Yamanaka's house yesterday to inquire about some details. Yamanaka Haiichi said that the spiritual wall is not completely sealed, and there are certain gaps and holes in the wall."

"Then is it possible that as long as you have enough control over your mental power, that is, Yin Escape, you can penetrate the mental wall and affect the consciousness inside?"

"Finally, combined with the above doubts, whether it is shadow imitation, heart turning, or illusion, it is basically certain that the Yin Escape Chakra can theoretically compete with that wild animal!"

Namikaze Minato was secretly stunned when he heard Orochimaru's long speech.

Obviously the other party did not participate in the previous battle, but he was able to think of so many things based only on the written report afterwards and a few conversations between the parties.

The key point sounds reasonable, but he didn't hear any big problem anyway.

"Since there is no other information besides this, we can only prepare around two points."

Orochimaru looked out the window as if he was looking at the west of Konoha Village through the obstacles of layers of buildings or walls.

"The first is to gather more ninjas who are good at using Yin Escape Chakra, such as the Nara clan, the Uchiha clan, the Kurama clan and all genjutsu-type ninjas."

His idea was that since ten Nara clan ninjas were not enough, then twenty or thirty would be needed.

At the same time, let those ninjas and ninjas who are good at illusions work together to study illusions that can penetrate the spiritual wall.

Orochimaru was now very curious and interested because of the various mysteries surrounding Aramaki and the two weapons that he could not understand at all.

He wanted to use these people in Konoha as pawns to verify whether his idea was correct.

It would be best to capture Huang Mu alive.

So he has informed Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya of these thoughts...

"The second is to learn senjutsu like you and Jiraiya did."

At this point Orochimaru's eyes turned to Namikaze Minato again.

The power of Aramaki, as well as the severed contact with Ryuji Cave and Miaomu Mountain, created a sense of urgency in his heart.

Although he could leave at any time, but just in case, he still felt that he should first find a way to learn the immortal mode or get a method to practice immortal arts.

This way, no matter what happens in the future, you can add a layer of insurance.

Talk about it.

The current Orochimaru has not had any defects in his soul and spirit due to the use of Fuzo Reincarnation, so he can definitely learn the Sage Mode.

It's a pity that I don't have the conditions to learn the immortal mode of Longdi Cave now.

However, if possible, he hopes to learn from Miaomu Mountain's sage mode training methods and study the sage mode that suits him best.

In fact, Orochimaru had always looked down on Jiraiya's sage mode before.

Except because he saw that Jiraiya had practiced for twelve years before he learned the obviously incomplete Sage Mode.

Also because entering Immortal Mode requires staying still for a long time, which in his opinion is too tasteless.

It wasn't until he met Jugo in the future that he began to study the 'curse seal'.

"I see, you want to learn the immortal mode..."

Namikaze Minato pondered. If he hadn't heard what Orochimaru said before, he would have decisively rejected him, but now he was a little hesitant.

"Lord Orochimaru, there are three problems with Sage Mode."

"One is that the risk of practicing is very high. If you are not careful, you will be petrified and die. The other is that it takes a long time to practice. You won't be able to catch up with the next battle even if you start now."

"The last thing is that this is the cultivation method of Miaomu Mountain after all. It cannot be passed on to others without permission, and I don't have toad oil on my hands..."

Orochimaru naturally knew this.

Jiraiya had used these as a means to show off, and had told him several times in front of him and Tsunade.

"The first one isn't a problem. Since Jiraiya, that idiot, can master it, I have nothing to worry about."

"And it doesn't matter if it's too late. With teachers and the others, one Aramaki can't destroy our Konoha Village, what do you think?"

Orochimaru smiled.

"Yes, I also believe that everyone can protect Konoha Village."

Namikaze Minato nodded heavily, with a firm look in his eyes, but then he heard Orochimaru say:

"Then if I can learn Sage Mode as soon as possible, I think it will help protect Konoha better, right?"

"certainly."

Namikaze Minato nodded: "With your strength, Orochimaru-sama, if you improve your sage mode, you will definitely become Konoha's huge combat power..."

He already understood what the other party meant.

The ward fell silent as Minato fell into deep thought, and Orochimaru waited silently without any worries.

The reason why he didn't ask Jiraiya for it was because he was too familiar with that guy.

If Jiraiya refuses to agree no matter what he says, then he is an idiot who regards Mt. Myoboku as sacred.

But this Namikaze Minato was different.

At most, he only respects Miaomu Mountain, but the first place in his heart is the Leaf Village.

"Okay, I will hand over the cultivation method of Immortal Mode to you!"

Sure enough, Namikaze Minato agreed.

In fact, if he could contact Miao Mushan, he would definitely channel a toad first and ask.

But now that Miao Mushan could not be contacted unilaterally, he could only act urgently.

He even began to hope that the Sandaime Hokage could also learn Sage Mode.

certainly.

Namikaze Minato also knew that it was unlikely, at least for the next battle, he would definitely not be able to catch up, but it would be a good thing to practice in the future.

"Thank you very much."

Although it was gratifying to have obtained the Sage Mode training method, it did not cause Orochimaru to lose his composure and act like an ecstasy.

"There is also the matter of the first-generation Hokage's cells, please think about it again..."

But just when he was about to give another word or two of persuasion, the door to the ward was suddenly pushed open.

"Lord Orochimaru, Namikaze Minato, this is an S-class confidential document sent by Hokage-sama!"

I saw an ANBU ninja walking in with a luggage bag.

After he handed the two letter-sized documents in his file bag to the two of them, he stood silently at the door and looked at them.

Because this S-class confidential document needs to be burned in front of them after reading it, or by their ANBU hands.

So Orochimaru and Namikaze Minato didn't pay attention to his gaze, and each opened the file and quickly read it.

But looking at the two people, their expressions were almost identical.

Shocked, shocked, still shocked!

Even Orochimaru, who always had an indifferent expression, couldn't hold back, because his world view was being violently impacted...

at the same time.

About fifty kilometers away from Konoha Village to the west, a giant wooden cow nearly seventy or eighty meters tall was walking among the vast sea of ​​trees.

Every time it sets foot, the ground in an area will crack and trees will break.

At the same time, there was a violent roar, which attracted a large number of birds and beasts to flee in panic.

"Eh?"

At this time, Huang Mu, who was standing on the top of the bull's head, looked ahead and found that there was no green anywhere about ten kilometers away.

On the dry and vast land, you can see many simple houses that look like temporary construction, as well as countless black spots that are densely packed like ants...

"What a huge formation. Are you here to greet me?"

Aramaki opened his arms and laughed wildly in the face of the strong wind.

now.

I don't know if it's because of the strong wind or the surge of momentum from his body.

He has long curly black hair and a black coat of justice.

It began to flutter up and down violently, making hunting noises.

"Then come on! Come on! Come on! Let's have a big fight!"

"The achievement of becoming a general should be so grand, hahahahaha!"
