Sasuke remained silent.

I was worried that he might be feeling uncomfortable but he didn't say anything, so I looked up at him and asked, "How do you feel in your hand? This is the first time I've restored someone's body. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, tell me."

He shook his head: "Is this your pupil technique?"

"No. This is the power that Naruto and Sasuke from my world gave me. Because it contains a part of Sasuke's power...so, it can be considered as you helping yourself."

"You got my, no, their chakra at the same time?"

"Ah."

He seemed to be sure of something: "This is the Yin-Yang escape technique."

"I don't quite understand. But, when I broke my arm and lost my eye, I relied on this jutsu to heal myself, so I call it the dream come true jutsu."

The name of this jutsu sounds like a joke, but no matter how hard I think about it, I can't think of a more appropriate name.

He frowned: "What happened to your arm and eyes?"

"Ah, it's not important." I said vaguely, "Using this ninjutsu consumes a lot of energy. The chakra of Naruto and Sasuke stored in my body has been used up. So please be careful to take care of your body in the future. Otherwise, if you get hurt again, it will be very difficult for me to deal with it."

"How do you take chakra from them and store it in your own body?"

I didn't answer, and seeing this, Sasuke said, "If you can harmonize my chakra storage with Naruto's and use Yin-Yang escape techniques, then you can use the same method to obtain chakra from me and Naruto in this world. This will be more secure in dealing with any situation."

He was right.

But I didn’t expect that I would stay in this world for so long, and I didn’t think that I would meet Sasuke from this world. If I had known this, I should have taken a bite of Naruto in advance.

"Then I have to bite you."

After hearing what I said, Sasuke asked, "Is this ninjutsu related to Orochimaru?"

I wanted to ask, "How do you know?", but then I remembered that my Sasuke had been with Orochimaru for so long, and this Sasuke was obviously the same.

Although Orochimaru is one of my creators, Sasuke may be more familiar with him than I am in terms of the number of years we have spent together.

"Hmm... do you think he has a bad taste?"

"Did he bite you?"

I shook my head: "Not really."

Seeing Sasuke's unhappy expression, I asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"I killed Orochimaru once, but he divided his chakra into countless parts and injected it into other people's bodies through seals... In other words, as long as someone still has his seal, he can be resurrected again with the chakra he left behind."

I was stunned: "You mean..."

"Maybe he hid a portion of his chakra in your body. Maybe he used you to imprint others and then transferred his own chakra out."

My eyes widened. "You mean! I can summon him... from the mark he left behind?"

I wanted to act calm and collected, but this matter meant too much to me, so I had to verify it clearly.

"You said he's in my body? He's always been living inside me, always with me? What should I do to see him?!"

Ever since I watched that time-travel movie with Shikamaru when I was a kid, there has always been an unanswered question in my heart -

Will I ever be able to reach the future where Lord Shikamaru and Orochimaru are?

Can I save them? Are their efforts, my efforts, meaningful?

I had prepared for the worst—that we would never see each other again, but—

But, Orochimaru, the Orochimaru of that world, has always been within my reach? Can I meet him again?!

So what about Lord Shikamaru, Lady Ino and the others?

My reaction was obviously a little abnormal to Sasuke.

He asked, "What is your relationship with Orochimaru?"

"...I'll tell you later, okay? My relationship with him is not that good, but...his existence is very important to me." I couldn't help but look at him pleadingly: "Please."

Sasuke was silent for a while, and then really told me: "Prepare a container that he can possess - I used a piece of meat from Kabuto in Sage Mode at the time - and then use the Sealing Evil Seal on his curse in reverse."

"Really? Thank you!" After being happy, I hesitated again: "What do you think of Orochimaru? Aren't you worried that if I summon him, it will cause trouble for you?"

"This jutsu of his just makes it a little more difficult to kill him. He is no match for me or Naruto, and he won't be your opponent in the future. So it doesn't matter whether he is resurrected or not. He does know a lot of information that may be able to help you."

"Well... but if he really spreads his chakra through the marks I left for others, I'd better not bite you, right? Otherwise his chakra will lodge in your body."

Sasuke's tone sounded experienced, calm and reliable: "I can handle it."

He was indeed experienced, because he consciously leaned towards me and pulled down his collar, revealing his neck and part of his shoulder.

"He bit this place before." When Sasuke said this, his long bangs blocked his face, and I couldn't see his expression: "Since he chose here, I think this should be the best position."

Just then, there was a knock on the door!

I was startled and turned to look at the door, "Who?"

The puppet maid's voice came from outside the door: "Miss Zhaolu, do you need a bath tonight? We are here to bring you new clothes."

I couldn't think of a reason to refuse: "Just leave it at the door."

Fortunately, the puppet was very obedient and would not force its way in: "Yes, sir."

After the sound disappeared, I waited for a while before tentatively opening the door. There was no one outside, only the clothes on the tray on the ground, neatly stacked.

I brought the tray in and locked the door again, just in case.

The first night I came here, the puppets helped me wash my body, so I had no toiletries. This time, they probably considered that I could take a bath by myself, so in addition to clothes, they also gave me a bath towel and a hair dryer.

I remembered that Sasuke had been traveling a lot these days, and I didn't know if he was feeling uncomfortable, so I looked at him and said, "Do you want to take a shower first?"

"..."

"This bed is pretty big. The two of us should be able to sleep in it tonight."

"……I……"

Seeing him turn his face away, showing resistance, I asked curiously, "What's the matter? Where are you going to sleep tonight? Don't you want to rest? With Sheren's personality, he probably won't sneak in while I'm sleeping after being scolded by me for so long, and I've locked the door. You can rest well on the bed, so you won't insist on sleeping on the floor, right? Or are you going to keep watch?"

"…I'll keep watch."

"That's fine... Then remember to wake me up in the middle of the night to take over." I looked at his half-finished dinner and said, "Ah," "I forgot you haven't finished yet. Then you eat first, and I'll use the bath towel first? They only sent daily necessities for a single person, and this is not like food where you can say that you have a big appetite. I may not be able to ask them to send another one. Sheren will be suspicious if he knows."

"..."

He didn't say anything, and I didn't know what he was thinking, "Then I'll go take a shower first?"

"……Um."
