Under the Bamboo Forest of Naruto

As the strong wind passed by, the yellow sand in the sky was lifted up, and two figures were faintly visible in the dust. Although the wind and sand were strong, it could not stop the two of them. All they could do was to move forward.

They just left their footprints and buried them.

I don’t know how long it took before the wind and sand began to weaken until it finally dissipated.

"finally reached!"

After the wind and sand dissipated, Orochimaru took off the robe on his head, gently shook the sand and dust off his body, and looked at the huge rock mountain not far ahead, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

"Is this it?"

Ryūyu murmured subconsciously. Orochimaru did not need to answer this question. The faint agitation caused by the chakra in his body had clearly told Ryūyu that this was the so-called "relic" of the Kusasen clan.

"Under this ruins that has a huge relationship with the Kusanagi clan, there is a huge amount of chakra buried. It can be called a veritable chakra dragon vein. And I have only found two such places in the entire ninja world."

Orochimaru nodded slightly, and the excitement in his eyes became more and more intense. After waiting for so long, he finally had the opportunity to solve the mystery of the dragon's veins with his own hands.

On the other side, Liu Yu stood silently in front of Iwayama, with her own thoughts in her eyes. Of course she knew what Orochimaru said about the dragon vein, and she also knew that the other dragon vein Orochimaru said was there!

Dragon vein???

This is perhaps the most accurate name for this underground ruins that has an inexplicable relationship with the Cao Qian clan. As for where the other dragon vein is? That is naturally the underground dragon vein of the ancient Loulan country that appeared in the original theatrical version of "The Lost Tower"!

These secrets are recorded in Orochimaru's research notes. Before setting off, Liu Yu read all the research materials related to Orochimaru.

However, despite the many similarities between the two, Liu Yu's intuition told him that there was no direct connection between the two dragon veins.

.......

Loulan, a powerful country that used puppetry to its peak more than ten years ago, has now changed with the changes in the world. Apart from the occasional caravans wandering in the desert recounting its past glory, there are only piles of ruins left to pay tribute to.

.

However, the former glory of Loulan Ancient Kingdom has no attraction to Liu Yu and others. The only thing worthy of Liu Yu and others' attention is the dragon vein containing endless chakra buried underground in Loulan Ancient Kingdom.

About twenty years ago, Loulan, a small country unknown to everyone, quickly prospered after developing the puppetry technique through the power of underground dragon veins. For a time, it was feared by all major countries.

As for the Third Hokage sending Minato's team to the ancient country of Loulan, Ryūyu didn't know the political considerations behind it. But what can be seen is that after Minato set up the sealing technique to completely seal the underground dragon vein, Loulan's development prospects were completely cut off, and the subsequent countries

The destruction of the Dragon Vein is inseparable from the sealing of the Dragon Veins.

Behind the reality is often the cruel truth. Liu Yu does not believe that the elite team led by Minato is to rescue the oppressed people of Loulan and the controlled Queen of Loulan.

To a certain extent, the sealing of the Dragon Vein is a scene that all major powers in the ninja world would like to see.

After all, the amount of chakra contained under the dragon vein is even greater than that of the tailed beast, and coupled with Baizu's puppet technique from the Sand Hidden Village in the Kingdom of Wind, it is not difficult for countries to imagine how difficult Loulan will be to deal with after fully developing the dragon vein resources.

Except for the first generation Hokage and Uchiha Madara, who are known as the gods of ninjas, there is no one in the world who can fight against the ninja village on their own. Even the third generation Raikage, who is incomparable in body, died in the hands of nearly 10,000 Iwagakure ninjas.

under siege.

In the face of sheer numbers, even the strongest man in a village can only be defeated. With this in mind, Loulan, who uses dragon vein chakra to develop puppetry, is equivalent to having an endless army in a sense.

This is not good news for several other countries.

Under such circumstances, sealing the dragon's veins has become the best choice for all countries. And the Minato team's original goal must have been to seal the dragon's veins.

"It's a pity that the Fourth Hokage completely sealed Loulan's dragon vein."

Looking at the huge rock mountain in front of him, Orochimaru had a strange look on his face, one that was mixed with nostalgia but also with a hint of resentment.

It's correct to think about it. How could a research madman like Orochimaru not be interested in the underground dragon veins that contain nearly unlimited chakra? He must have tried to go to the dragon veins at the beginning. However, due to various reasons, Orochimaru was eventually dragged down on the battlefield by the orders of the third generation.

, and Namikaze Minato took over this "important task".

After the Third Ninja War came to an end, Orochimaru also went to Loulan in an attempt to explore the secrets of the underground dragon veins, but in the end he returned without success.

As for the reason? It is not difficult to understand, that is, Orochimaru was unable to break the seal placed on the dragon veins by the Fourth Hokage.

In the original movie version, when faced with Centipede who might break the seal left behind by the fourth generation, Yamato didn't seem to panic at all. That's precisely because he was convinced that Centipede couldn't break the seal.

After all, the existence of dragon veins has the potential to change the structure of the ninja world, and dragon veins cannot be moved. Under this consideration, it is logical to set a seal for dragon veins that cannot be unlocked.

The seal that Namikaze Minato put on the dragon veins is a sealing technique unique to the Uzumaki clan, and it relies on the chakra of the underground dragon veins for stamina. With the combination of the two, Namikaze Minato's seal can be said to be impeccable. If the seal is done well,

On the occasion of the plan, Namikaze Minato blocked all possible means of unblocking it.

But surprisingly, Baizu didn't choose to break the seal, but directly transferred the seal to himself, thereby getting close to the dragon's veins and finally traveling through time and space.

I don't know whether he hit it by mistake or something. After all, although the dragon vein contains endless chakra, it also means endless danger. If he just rashly transfers the seal to himself, no one knows what will happen in the end.

Such consequences. After all, being hit by that level of chakra is a dead end no matter how you look at it.

Of course, if Orochimaru knew about Baizu's experience, this scientific madman might also try to transfer the seal to the human body. Although Orochimaru himself may not be involved in danger, the most important thing Orochimaru has is test subjects.

In fact, when Orochimaru first discovered the dragon vein in front of him that had a great relationship with the Sosen clan, he also explored it on his own. However, what Orochimaru found difficult to accept was that not only was he unable to break the wave of the Fourth Hokage

The seals left by the Feng Shui Sect and the seals suspected to be left by the ancestors of the Sosen clan were helpless. In the end, Orochimaru had no choice but to contact Riyuha for cooperation.
