Promising the future ahead of time, starting with Naruto

Chapter 58 The Kakashi Incident (Please read on!)

Genichi Shushita adopted a very humble posture in front of Orochimaru.

Because within the ecosystem of Konoha Village, the three legendary Sannin hold a very high position.

Orochimaru himself is a terrifyingly powerful being.

Even though Orochimaru was eventually defeated by Itachi Uchiha with a single genjutsu, it doesn't mean Orochimaru was weak.

Kakashi is a genius. He became a Jonin at the age of thirteen and was renowned in the Anbu, earning the title of Konoha's Technician.

But when Orochimaru defected, even though he was injured, a single glance from him was enough to make Kakashi freeze in place, too afraid to make a move.

Even during the Konoha Crush plan, Kakashi was extremely wary of Orochimaru.

Orochimaru was not scary at all in front of Genichi Shushita; on the contrary, he gave people a very gentle feeling.

But Genichi could sense the cold-bloodedness and terror hidden beneath Orochimaru's gentle exterior.

This is a ninja's intuition.

However, despite his humble demeanor, Genichi under the tree did not act subserviently.

One after the other, the two left the core area of ​​Konoha and entered the mountains and forests.

This is the back mountain of Konoha.

Hidden among the trees, an underground entrance appears, not particularly well hidden.

Genichi Shushita guessed that this was Orochimaru's openly known experimental base.

Upon entering the experimental base, Genichi Shushita soon saw many bottles and jars of various sizes, just like a museum exhibition, which dazzled him.

Some are complete bodies, some are just parts, and it's impossible to tell what kind of creature they came from.

Of course, the most numerous creatures are snakes, especially white-skinned snakes.

"I wonder if the Yamata no Orochi has been modified..."

Genichi under the tree secretly guessed.

Although Orochimaru did not transplant any bloodline limit cells, and even on the surface, he did not use the Eight-Tails cells he obtained, because Orochimaru did not have the Eight-Tails' chakra.

However, both the Yamata no Orochi and Orochimaru himself, who has transformed into the White Phosphorus Serpent, possess the characteristics of the Eight-Tails.

Compared to Kabuto's brutal transplantation of various cells, Orochimaru's methods were truly astonishing and captivating, demonstrating a genuine mastery of the power and mysteries hidden within various bloodline limits.

"This is……"

Suddenly, Genichi stopped in his tracks, his gaze fixed on a huge glass jar.

What was soaking inside was a huge bull's horn.

The eight-tailed horn!

Shuxia Xuan unconsciously swallowed.

Really want!
Orochimaru chuckled and asked, "Does Genichi know about it?"

Xuan Yi under the tree said, "I'm not entirely sure."

"During the mission, we encountered a Jinchuriki, a Tailed Beast, from the Cloud Ninja."

Orochimaru raised an eyebrow: "Oh...heh, to be able to complete a mission even when encountering a Jinchuriki of a Tailed Beast, you truly live up to your reputation as the White Fang of Konoha."

Genichi Shushita laughed and said, "Master is very powerful. Even the son of the Third Raikage is no match for him."

However, he couldn't help but think to himself: Compared to how you secretly killed the previous Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, that's a small matter.

"Does Lord Xuanyi want the horns of the Eight-Tailed Fox?"

Orochimaru said.

His insight was so keen.

Genichi Shushita hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Senior, I have witnessed the power of the tailed beasts before. The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki was severely injured by my teacher. If it were an ordinary ninja, that injury would have been fatal unless Tsunade was by his side. But as a Jinchuriki, he was able to recover quickly."

The regenerative abilities of Jinchūriki are indeed abnormal.

The Eight-Tails has an extremely strong ability to protect itself.

Planning for a tailed beast is difficult, but after encountering Killer Bee, Genichi Kinoshita remembered that Orochimaru had once raised an Eight-Tails horn.

This might be a path, even if it's just a corner, it's better than zero tail.

"Hehe, the power of the tailed beasts is naturally extraordinary."

Orochimaru, who studied and cultured a single horn from a cell, knew the power of the Eight-Tails better than anyone.

He chuckled and said, "However, the power of the tailed beasts is not something that ordinary people can withstand."

"Xuan Yi Jun, what do you plan to use to exchange for it?"

Genichi was deep in thought under the tree.

He certainly has some intelligence that he can exchange.

However, presenting this information now would be inappropriate for his status.

Although it doesn't really matter, since Orochimaru wouldn't share it with anyone else anyway.

However, this could very well attract Orochimaru's attention excessively.

But is it necessary to do this now?
Not at all.

Wouldn't it be better to use the future to get something for free later? So Shuxia Xuan shook his head and honestly said, "Senior, I'm afraid I have nothing to offer in exchange right now."

"Although I have developed some ninjutsu, I'm afraid it's not enough to exchange for these, and senior probably wouldn't be interested either."

Orochimaru chuckled dismissively, "Then let's talk when you have enough leverage. I trust you!"

The tour then continued.

……

Upon leaving the experimental base, Genichi Kinoshita held a scroll in his hand, containing human modification data he had acquired from Orochimaru.

So far, he has met all three legendary Sannin.

Orochimaru is the most difficult one to get along with, although Tsunade seems to have an even worse temper.

Under Orochimaru's gaze, Genichi Kinoshita always couldn't help but feel like he had become prey.

Orochimaru is a very dangerous person!
"Luckily, I'm cheating..."

Xuan Yi leaped away from under the tree.

Konoha Hospital.

Tsunade saw Genichi return with the scroll and asked directly, "You cooperated with him?"

Shuxia Genichi shook his head: "How could I be qualified?"

"This is the data I obtained by exchanging the cells of a Magnet Release bloodline limit ninja."

Tsunade exclaimed in surprise: "The cells of a Magnet Release bloodline limit ninja?"

Genichi Kishita took out a small sealing scroll from his ninja tool bag, opened it, and took out its contents.

Blood, bone marrow, and several corpses.

Shuxia Genichi smiled and said, "They all come from the Cloud Ninja."

"This is the blood and bone marrow of a Magnet Release Kekkei Genkai ninja."

Tsunade nodded, then said, "The chances of a successful match are very low."

Genichi under the tree smiled nonchalantly and said, "I know."

"But even so, perhaps we can still obtain some information about Magnetism from his cells, right?"

"If we can discover a method for cultivating Magnetism in this way, that would be even better."

Tsunade nodded, and then the two of them got to work.

The corpses and cells of ninjas can contain a wealth of information and intelligence.

If it weren't for bringing back a prisoner, these Cloud Ninja corpses would probably have been examined by Konoha's intelligence department first.

Genichi Shushita first conducted a matching comparison.

However, it's clear that luck won't be on your side so easily.

Failed again.

This time, Genichi Kinoshita didn't take it to heart at all and followed Tsunade's research step by step.

They even exchanged research information by communicating through Orochimaru's snakes.

I must say, Aunt Snake is really great; she answers every question.

After a while, even Genichi Shushita had the urge to just surrender to Snake Aunt.

In terms of research, Tsunade is far inferior to Orochimaru.

Or, to put it another way, everyone has their own area of ​​expertise.

……

Time flies, autumn goes and winter comes.

The tasks became increasingly demanding, so much so that the time Xuan Yi could spend cultivating and researching under the tree was constantly decreasing.

Genichi Kishita also noticed that the situation in the ninja world was changing step by step.

It seems that long enough time has passed since the end of the great war, and with their strength restored, the various ninja villages are beginning to stir again.

This day.

Genichi Shushita had just finished his mission when he rushed to Konoha Hospital through the snow.

I had only just met Shizune when I learned from her that Kakashi was injured and hospitalized.

"what's the situation?"

Is Kakashi's condition serious?

Genichi under the tree asked a series of questions.

Shizune quickly said, "Kakashi's injuries aren't serious, it's just... his mental state isn't very good."

"Because of his squad, everyone except him was killed in battle."

what?
Genichi under the tree looked completely astonished.
