The Mutant God in American Comics.

Chapter 199 Silver Nightmare
On the surface, letting Sasuke go to find Orochimaru is equivalent to letting Orochimaru occupy Sasuke's body.

but it is not the truth.

Not to mention that Orochimaru had been warned by Richard before.

Even if not, Orochimaru is not ready to change his body immediately.

The soul in Orochimaru's hands was not sealed by the Shikigami Fūjin performed by the Third Hokage, so he did not need to change his body in a hurry.

Sasuke did not answer Richard immediately, but remained silent.

After more than ten seconds, he finally said, "Would you rather let me go find Orochimaru than to guide me personally?"

"It's not a question of willingness, but compared to me, Orochimaru will be a better teacher."

"My ability is indeed stronger than his, but when it comes to guiding students, I am really not as good as him."

Richard was not being modest; he was stating the facts.

Even though he is very powerful now, he is not a real ninja.

Even though he now has mastered forbidden techniques such as Flying Thunder God and Eight Gates Ninjutsu, and has the Rinnegan, this cannot change the fact that he is not a real ninja.

"Is he really as good as you say?"

Sasuke looked at Richard in disbelief.

"Of course!"

"You've seen Jiraiya's teaching of Naruto. Compared to Jiraiya, Orochimaru's teaching ability is only stronger, not weaker."

Richard said quickly.

Because he has not mastered the fairy technique, Orochimaru's fighting ability is slightly inferior to Jiraiya.

But it's just slightly inferior.

If he really fought a life-and-death battle with Jiraiya, the possibility of Orochimaru surviving to the end would be even higher.

As for the reason, it's simple.

Because Orochimaru has too many ways to save his life.

Compared to Orochimaru, Jiraiya has far fewer means to save his life.

"I'll think about it seriously."

After saying that, Sasuke turned and walked towards the Uchiha clan's territory.

After watching Sasuke leave, Richard also returned to his residence.

The next morning.

After finishing breakfast at his residence, Richard was about to go out when there was a knock on the door.

He used his super vision to take a look and Sasuke, carrying a backpack, appeared in his sight.

Richard walked from the living room to the entrance hall and opened the door.

"I decided to look for Orochimaru. Can you tell me where he is?"

Sasuke said without further ado.

"He should still be in Otogakure Village now."

Richard replied.

"Otogakure Village?"

"Okay, thank you for your guidance and help!"

Sasuke looked at Richard seriously and bowed to him.

Looking at Sasuke in front of him, Richard said, "Although the Sound Village is not very far from Konoha, it would be a waste of time if you go there alone, and you don't know if there will be any accidents."

"I'll take you there, and by the way, I'll give Orochimaru a few words of advice, so that he doesn't have any inappropriate thoughts."

Take me there?

Sasuke looked at Richard with surprise.

"Will it be too much trouble for you?"

Sasuke said, frowning.

"No, I fly very fast."

Richard said with a smile.

Flying very fast?

Sasuke knew that Richard had the ability to fly, but he didn't know how fast Richard could fly.

To be precise, no one knows except Richard.

Before Sasuke could continue speaking, Richard said to Uzuki Yugao in the living room, "I'm going to go out for a while and will be back soon."

"Okay, be safe!"

Mao Yue Xigao's voice came from the living room.

After hearing Mao Yue Xi Yan's answer, Richard went outside and closed the door.

Then he grabbed Sasuke's shoulders and flew with him.

When he first flew into the air, Richard did not increase his flying speed to supersonic speed.

Arriving thousands of meters above Konoha, he first mobilized his magic power to create an isolation force field, and then began to accelerate.

Bang!
In just a moment, his flying speed exceeded the speed of sound and was still increasing.

Sasuke, who was grabbed by the shoulders, showed an expression of disbelief, experiencing the first super-high-speed flight in his life.

It was not until this moment that Sasuke finally understood why Richard said that he flew very fast.

Although he didn't know how fast Richard was flying now, Sasuke was sure of one thing, that is, he had never seen such an astonishing speed.

The buildings of Konoha and the forest outside the village disappeared from his sight in the blink of an eye.

At the speed of a ninja, it would take three days to reach the Sand Village from Konoha.

The distance between Konoha and Sand Village is about the same as the distance between Konoha and Sound Village.

In other words, if Sasuke planned to go to the Otogakure Village by himself, it would take at least three days.

However, this time, it only took them more than ten minutes to reach the sky above Otogakure Village.

Richard ignored Sasuke's shock and landed him at the entrance of Orochimaru's base.

"We're here, follow me."

Richard said to Sasuke who was still in shock.

"it is good."

Sasuke nodded and followed Richard into Orochimaru's base.

Their arrival quickly attracted the attention of the base's "guards".

Orochimaru deployed many non-human guards in the base.

To be more precise, a lot of snakes were deployed as guards.

Compared with ordinary snakes, these guard snakes improved by Orochimaru have relatively higher "IQs".

Although he is not yet able to speak or write, he still has the ability to identify his enemies.

After seeing that one of the people entering the base was Richard, these modified guard snakes allowed them to walk into the base.

Not long after, Richard met Orochimaru's right-hand men, Kimimaro and Kabuto Yakushi.

I don’t know if it’s because he has never been sick since childhood, or because he has been cured by Orochimaru, but the current Kimimaro is completely different from the original, and is extremely healthy.

"Lord Orochimaru is in the laboratory. Sir Richard, please wait in the reception room for a moment."

Kimimaro said to Richard.

Richard didn't say anything, but nodded.

Soon, they arrived at the reception room.

After asking them what they needed to drink, Kimimaro and Kabuto Yakushi left.

After they left, Sasuke said to Richard, "Are you on good terms with Orochimaru?"

"It's not that we are very close, we just know each other and have had some cooperation before."

Richard replied.

Cooperation?

After hearing Richard's words, Sasuke immediately frowned and continued to ask: "What are you cooperating on? Is it related to the previous attack on Konoha?"

"I know what you want to ask, but I can tell you very clearly that I have nothing to do with Orochimaru's attempt to destroy Konoha."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken action at the Chunin Exam venue."

"If you must say, I just didn't interfere with his fight with the Third Hokage."

Richard said slowly. At this time, Sasuke did not know the truth about the night of the Uchiha clan's genocide, and did not hate Konoha.

After hearing Richard's answer, Sasuke fell silent.

Although Richard did not tell him about his previous cooperation with Orochimaru, he was not particularly interested in this.

He just wanted to know if Richard had anything to do with Orochimaru's destruction of Konoha.

Time passes little by little.

A few minutes later.

Kimimaro came to the reception room with tea.

Coming with Kimimaro was Orochimaru, who had just come out of the laboratory.

After entering the reception room, Orochimaru first looked at Sasuke, then sat down opposite them and said, "You brought him to me, you don't want to give him to me, right?"

Although he knew the possibility was low, Orochimaru still asked.

"of course not."

"I brought him here in the hope that you can be his teacher and guide him for a while."

"He feels that he is growing too slowly in Konoha and wants to become stronger as quickly as possible."

Richard said slowly.

"I don't have the hobby of accepting students casually."

Orochimaru said quickly.

"I know you don't just accept students casually, but I also know that you are currently lacking a student who can inherit your legacy."

"Kimimaro's corpse bone lineage is not suitable for inheriting your ninjutsu, and it is not a research-type talent."

"Yakushi Kabuto is good at research and can help you a lot, but his talent is not high enough, so he can't pass on your ninjutsu."

"Although Sasuke is not good at research, he will be the best successor to your ninjutsu."

Richard said casually.

In the original work, Orochimaru taught Sasuke with all his heart because he wanted Sasuke's body.

And now, without the reward of Sasuke's body, he might not be interested in teaching Sasuke.

Therefore, Richard needs to find another way to make Orochimaru interested in Sasuke.

For example, inheriting Orochimaru's ninjutsu.

"There is some truth in what you said, but I don't think I need a successor."

"I am immortal and do not need a so-called successor."

Orochimaru said quickly.

"No, you need it!"

Richard looked at Orochimaru and said seriously.

After seeing the serious look on his face, Orochimaru knew he had no right to refuse.

If he continued to refuse, Richard would definitely not mind beating him up and forcing him to accept Sasuke as his student.

After sighing, Orochimaru continued: "Why don't you teach him yourself?"

"Okay, stop playing tricks on me."

"Don't you just want to hear me admit that I'm not as good at teaching as you are?"

"Since you want to listen, then I will satisfy you. My teaching ability is not as strong as yours. It is you who should teach Sasuke so that his potential can be fully realized."

Richard said to Orochimaru.

After hearing his words, Orochimaru immediately showed a satisfied expression and said with a smile: "You have fulfilled my wish, so I will also fulfill your wish."

"He can stay. I will teach him well."

After Orochimaru finished speaking, Richard turned his head and looked at Sasuke, giving him a look.

Sasuke reacted immediately and said to Orochimaru: "Uchiha Sasuke, meet Lord Orochimaru."

"Don't call me adult, call me teacher."

Orochimaru's voice rang out.

"Okay, Orochimaru-sensei."

Sasuke said immediately.

When Sasuke finished speaking, Richard stood up and said to Orochimaru: "Sasuke is in your hands."

"By the way, Naruto is now Jiraiya's student, and has learned the summoning technique and Rasengan from Jiraiya."

"If you don't want to lose to Jiraiya, you have to work harder."

As soon as Richard finished speaking, Orochimaru said with disdain: "Don't worry, Jiraiya has never defeated me, never before and never in the future."

"It better be this way."

"If there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

After saying that, Richard left the reception room.

When Richard left, Orochimaru said to Sasuke: "What did Richard teach you before?"

Sasuke didn't hesitate at all and told Richard how he taught him swordsmanship and how he defeated the enemy so quickly.

After listening to Sasuke's story, Orochimaru immediately frowned.

"He didn't teach you any ninjutsu?"

Orochimaru continued to ask.

"No."

Sasuke replied.

After coming out of Orochimaru's base, Richard used his flying ability and flew towards Konoha at a high speed.

Although it is different from the original work, Sasuke finally chooses to become Orochimaru's disciple.

As for whether Sasuke can grow to the level in the original three years later, it depends on whether Orochimaru is attentive enough and whether Sasuke's hatred for Itachi is strong enough.

……

time flies.

Before I knew it, three years had passed.

During these three years, apart from occasionally carrying out the agency's commissions, Richard spent the rest of his time either staying in Konoha doing nothing, enjoying a leisurely and decadent life, or leaving Konoha to travel around the world, enjoying the mountains and rivers and experiencing the unique customs and cultures of each country.

In addition to the five major countries, he has also visited other small countries at least once.

Not only that, he also went to Myoboku Mountain, Ryuchi Cave, and Wet Bone Forest, and met the Toad Immortal, the White Snake Immortal, the Slug Immortal and others.

Although he went to places like Myoboku Mountain, he did not learn any magic.

It’s not that he lacks aptitude, but that he doesn’t have much interest in immortal arts.

In other words, the limitations of magic are too strong and it cannot be used outside this world.

Senjutsu requires Senjutsu Chakra to perform.

Senjutsu Chakra is the result of a balanced fusion of natural energy, physical energy, and spiritual energy.

Although there is natural energy in the Marvel world, it goes without saying that the natural energy in the Marvel world and the natural energy in the Naruto world are completely different things.

In the past three years, Richard has not taken action very often.

But he still became a household name as an S-rank ninja and got a ninja title of his own.

Silver Nightmare!

When he first started out, his nickname was "Silver Flash".

The Fourth Hokage Minato was awarded the title of Golden Flash during the Third Ninja World War because of his Flying Thunder God Technique.

And Richard also mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Not only that, he, like the Fourth Hokage Minato, also fought with the Fourth Raikage Ai and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee, the AB combination of the Hidden Cloud Village.

Then, he got the title of Silver Flash.

However, he did not like the title of Silver Flash very much, and did some things that seemed cruel to others.

Thus, his title changed from Silver Flash to Silver Nightmare.

Although Silver Nightmare looks more like a villain, Richard still prefers the title of Silver Nightmare.

Because of the title of Silver Flash, he feels like he is the younger brother or successor of the Fourth Hokage.
