Chapter 207 Orochimaru's New Body
Chapter 207 Orochimaru's New Body
Sasuke had naturally heard of the Legendary Sannin, and he was even more familiar with Orochimaru's reputation.
After all, Orochimaru's defection caused quite a stir back then, and the Uchiha clan even received orders to help pursue the traitorous Orochimaru.
Unexpectedly, the Chiba Daimyo had some contact with the defector Orochimaru.
No, this seems more normal. After all, the surviving Uchiha clan members have now defected from Konoha, yet the Chiba Daimyo is able to accept them all.
So getting to know Orochimaru doesn't seem to be a problem.
"By the way, Sasuke, have you ever thought about reviving your family and clan?"
Tetsuya smiled and posed a question that would be absolutely irresistible to young Sasuke: resurrecting his deceased family and clan.
Tetsuya is like a venomous snake now, lurking in the shadows, casting out bait and waiting for unsuspecting prey to take the bait.
"Really! Lord Daimyo, is there really a way to revive my family and clansmen?!"
"Of course, there is a way, and Orochimaru is an expert in this."
Upon hearing that Orochimaru knew the method to revive others, Sasuke became excited. He bowed deeply to Tetsuya and then said...
"My lord, please take me to see Orochimaru. I want to learn from him how to revive my family and clan."
Tetsuya smiled and nodded.
"No problem, I'll contact Orochimaru for you later. I believe you two will get along very well."
It's important to know that in the original timeline, Sasuke had Orochimaru completely under his control.
At the time, a saying often circulated online that Naruto and Sakura were Jiraiya and Tsunade's disciples respectively, while only Sasuke was Orochimaru's father.
Of course, this was mostly just a joke, since the relationship between Orochimaru and Sasuke is indeed quite delicate.
The main reason for this is that Orochimaru initially planned to take over Sasuke's body, which made Sasuke have a very bad impression of Orochimaru.
After all, it's already a big favor not to kill someone who wants to take over your body.
But things should be different now. After all, with White Zetsu as a research subject, Orochimaru should be able to find a better way to solve his physical problems.
After leaving the small courtyard where Sasuke lived, Tetsuya sent a letter to Orochimaru through the Chiba Trading Company.
In the Land of Rice Fields, in the Village of Sound, Orochimaru emerged from the cultivation chamber.
He looked at his hands, at his smooth skin, and at the familiar face in the mirror, and couldn't help but burst into excited laughter.
"Hahaha, I succeeded! I finally succeeded! From now on, I will no longer need someone else's body as a vessel."
Through Orochimaru's diligent research, he finally managed to cultivate a completely new body using White Zetsu's body and his own initial cells.
This body showed no rejection of his soul; it was as if it were his original body.
"Congratulations, Lord Orochimaru, on your successful research! You are now free from the shackles of the Reanimation Jutsu."
Kimimaro, acting like a butler, respectfully congratulated Orochimaru, but Orochimaru noticed a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
After all, his previous existence was meant to serve as a vessel for Orochimaru's soul. He felt neither worry nor fear about this; on the contrary, he felt extremely honored.
Now that Orochimaru's research has succeeded, he no longer needs other people's bodies as vehicles, which means that he has now lost his reason for existence.
Orochimaru noticed Kimimaro's disappointment. He stepped forward, took the clothes from Kimimaro's hands, put them on, and then patted Kimimaro's shoulder to comfort him.
"Don't be sad, Kimimaro. Although I don't need your body anymore, think about it from another perspective: isn't it good that you can stay by my side forever? I will find a way to cure your bloodstain disease, so that you can stay by my side forever."
"I will always follow Lord Orochimaru!"
Kimimaro's eyes flickered, and he immediately nodded and said.
"I will always follow Lord Orochimaru."
"By the way, Lord Orochimaru, here is a letter for you, sent by the daimyo of the Land of Grass."
"Oh, Mr. Chiba contacted me by letter. How interesting. Let me see what happened that made him contact me."
After opening the letter, Orochimaru began to read it, and soon a smile appeared on his face, while a hint of longing flashed in his eyes.
In his letter, Tetsuya explained the massacre of the Uchiha clan and told him that the twenty-odd surviving Uchiha were now in the Land of Grass.
She also told him about Shisui's eyes turning back into Sharingan, which was what intrigued him the most.
He had heard Tetsuya say before that Shisui's eyes had been stolen, and that Tetsuya had replaced them with White Zetsu's eyes.
I never expected that White Zetsu's eyes could also activate the Sharingan. That's really interesting.
As for taking on an Uchiha brat as a disciple, he had no such idea.
The kid who could get Tetsuya to personally write a letter to him about taking him on as a disciple must be someone extraordinary.
I'll see if I can talk to Tetsuya Chiba about getting a pair of Sharingan to study.
"Alright, Kimimaro, pack your things, take Kabuto with you, and let's go to the Land of Grass together."
"Yes, Lord Orochimaru."
It doesn't take long to travel from the Land of Fields to the Land of Grass, since as a member of the Commercial Alliance, there is a direct trade route to the Land of Grass.
Even the business world could no longer satisfy Tetsuya, so he also invented railways and trains.
Although it was still just a coal-fired steam train, it was much faster than a horse-drawn carriage.
Orochimaru led the two to the Daimyo's residence in the Land of Grass.
Upon knocking on the door, they were greeted by Sansho-no-Kami, the head steward of the Daming Prefecture.
"Hehe, so it's Butler Shinta. I am Orochimaru. I received a letter from the Daimyo and have come to pay my respects."
"So it's Mr. Orochimaru. Lord Daimyo has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come in."
Thank you.
Orochimaru gestured for Kimimaro to hand over the gifts he brought to Kami-Tatsu, while Kabuto Yakushi also slipped a red envelope into Kami-Tatsu's pocket.
Upon seeing the red envelopes, Shenda became even more enthusiastic and quickly invited the three of them to go to the living room to rest.
"Hehe, Dou, you're as clever as ever."
The pharmacist adjusted his glasses.
"It's all thanks to Lord Orochimaru's excellent teaching."
"Some things are innate, and cannot be taught by others. You are naturally shrewd, good at reading people and changing your stance according to the wind. You are truly born to be a spy."
"Thank you for the compliment, Lord Orochimaru."
When Orochimaru praised Kabuto Yakushi, Kimimaro didn't say a word, but it was clear that he was somewhat envious.
"Let's go and rest in the living room for a while while we wait for the daimyo's summons."
