Chapter 268
If there hadn't been a 'caged bird', Orochimaru would have already started hunting down the Hinata family ninjas.
"I see……"
Orochimaru understood.
Hinata's ambition is really great. If the overall strength of the Hyuga clan is further improved, small Konoha will not be able to satisfy the ambition of the Hyuga clan.
Just imagine, the entire Hinata clan has nearly a thousand clan members and hundreds of ninjas. If these hundreds of ninjas all have huge amounts of chakra and all know sage mode, how will Naruto deal with it?
At that time, as long as Hinata wants to do it, no one in the entire ninja world can stop Hinata.
However, Orochimaru couldn't wait for such a long time.
It's not that Orochimaru is eager for quick success, but that the situation in the ninja world has become too overwhelming for Orochimaru to wait any longer.
The plan of the Akatsuki organization will begin soon, and Black Zetsu and Hinata's plan is based on the plan of the Akatsuki organization.
Orochimaru is a very important part of the plan. Whether it is a chess piece or an abandoned piece depends on whether Orochimaru's strength is worthy of continued use.
Chapter 412 The road to evolution for all members begins
It's not that Orochimaru is belittling himself, but that he is very self-aware.
The Earth Reincarnation looks very powerful, and its potential is strong enough, but the level of control requires Orochimaru to improve his own strength.
And even if he digs through the entire ninja world, Orochimaru's strongest trump card is just Senju Hashirama.
If you want to benefit from future plans, your own strength is crucial.
However, at the moment, the only way Orochimaru can improve his strength, besides fusing Hashirama's cells, is Akaiya's snake meat.
"It's nothing to provide snake meat to you Hyuga clan..."
Orochimaru's heart moved slightly, and he said in a cryptic tone: "Money is not important to ninjas. You should know what I really want."
Of course Hinata knew, what Orochimaru wanted was eyes.
And the ordinary Byakugan is not enough. What Orochimaru wants is a body with the blood of the Hyuga family and the Byakugan.
"Uncle Snake..."
Hinata advised earnestly: "Actually, if you focus all your energy on the blood inheritance limit, you are completely on the wrong path."
"Although the pupil technique is powerful, it may not be as good as some forbidden techniques."
"Look at Onoki, the Tsuchikage of Iwagakure Village, his Dust Release is very powerful. Instead of focusing on the Eye Technique, you might as well study more forbidden techniques!"
Hinata's words really weren't deceiving Orochimaru. The eye technique actually only has one advantage, that is, it doesn't require practice.
As long as you open your eyes, you can easily master the art of eye pupils.
But if you analyze it from the perspective of strength, the forbidden technique is not inferior to the pupil technique at all, and Orochimaru himself is a super genius in terms of 'jutsu'.
Instead of pursuing the eyes, it is better to calm down and develop a few forbidden techniques.
"Aside from 'jutsu', the power of a ninja is only the essence of chakra."
"As long as I master the Immortal Technique Chakra, with Uncle Snake's current strength, I estimate that he will be able to reach my current level very soon. Although the physique of the Blood Succession Limit is special, it is nothing more than Five Elements Escape Technique and Yin Yang Escape."
"A special physique is just a matter of reaching a certain level in advance!"
Hearing this, Orochimaru said noncommittally: "I used to be as naive as you, but many things in this world cannot be achieved through hard work."
"The illusion of the Sharingan may be able to reach the same height through practice, or even surpass the power of the Sharingan..."
"But how many people in the world can do this?"
In terms of talent, Orochimaru prides himself on not being inferior to Uchiha Itachi. But Uchiha Itachi's starting point was far ahead of Orochimaru, and every evolution of his eyes represented an improvement in strength.
To put it simply, Orochimaru's mentality collapsed after seeing Itachi Uchiha.
Orochimaru worked hard for decades to go from bronze to king. He originally thought that the opponent was just a gold, but he found that not only was the opponent also a king, but he was also faster than himself in the upper level, and he was also a cheater.
Is this game still playable?
In fact, Hinata can understand Orochimaru's mentality. After all, not everyone is Xiao Li and does not have such tenacious willpower.
After watching the finale of "Naruto", you can understand that you can't succeed in blood even if you try hard all your life.
"well!"
Hinata sighed sadly. Orochimaru's heart was as high as the sky and his life was as thin as paper. Hinata didn't know how to comfort him.
To be fair, Orochimaru has reached this day as an ordinary bloodline, and the plug-in of the Ryūchi Cave psychic scroll is already several times stronger than ordinary ninjas.
If Orochimaru moves forward in a down-to-earth manner and uses scientific methods to improve his strength, Hinata feels that Orochimaru may not be able to reach the realm of Six Paths Sage.
This road may be very long, but we can see the light of day.
But Orochimaru focused on the Sharingan and wanted to use plug-ins to improve his strength. This was completely misguided in Hinata's opinion.
Just as a comparison, Hinata really has no position to comfort Orochimaru.
After thinking about it, Hinata could only say honestly: "Uncle Snake, as the heir of the Hyuga clan, I definitely can't give you the Byakugan, but... I can give you a Rinnegan eye!"
"Uncle Snake, do you think this deal is a good deal?"
"But I have one condition, that is, you must improve the cooking method of snake meat as much as possible and increase the efficiency of absorbing life force until I am satisfied."
Hinata suddenly thought of Urashiki.
Although Urashiki is dead and the vitality of his body is gradually draining away, his eyes are still there and can be used as long as they are installed.
Although Urashiki's eyes are white eyes, they can be transformed into samsara eyes using the power of Yin Yang Escape!
It's just that Urashiki's power has been taken away too much. Don't even think about the Rinnegan of Rokumagatama. The ordinary Rinnegan is still fine.
"You still have the Samsara Eye in your hand???"
Orochimaru was really shocked. Hinata actually had the Rinnegan in her hand. Whose eyes were these?
"kindness!"
Hinata nodded slightly and said very honestly: "These eyes evolved from the Byakugan, but if you want to open the Rinnegan, you must activate it with the power of Yin Yang..."
Having said this, Hinata scratched her head again and said with some embarrassment: "Uncle Snake, to be honest, you probably can't do it."
Orochimaru keenly captured two pieces of information.
The Byakugan can evolve into the Samsara Eye, and the Samsara Eye is related to Yin Yang Escape.
However, having said that, how many people can really do it?
The reincarnation eye is the product of Yin Yang escape reaching a certain level, and it also needs the power of the sacred tree.
Thinking about it carefully, it is not unreasonable for Orochimaru to focus on the Sharingan and take shortcuts.
If he practices step by step, Orochimaru has reached the limit that ordinary ninjas can achieve.
Orochimaru's expression was uncertain.
Orochimaru is an obsessive-compulsive disorder patient. If it's just for the Sharingan, he has countless ways to get it.
But what Orochimaru wants is not to be half-assed like Kakashi, but to truly maximize the power of his eyes like Uchiha Madara.
It is true that after installing the Samsara Eye, you can use the power of the Samsara Eye to suppress Hashirama cells, thus having the power of the Samsara Eye and Wood Release at the same time.
But what Orochimaru wants to pursue is perfection, not nondescript half-heartedness.
And Hinata also said that that eye is just a Byakugan. If you want to open the Rinnegan, you must activate it with the power of Yin Yang Release.
But once Orochimaru misses this opportunity, it will be difficult to get another chance to touch this level of power.
"good……"
"Then it's settled!"
In the end, Orochimaru did not reject Hinata. That eye could at least allow Orochimaru to decipher more secrets and touch a higher level of power, which Orochimaru was absolutely unwilling to give up.
"Okay! Then I'll be waiting for your good news!"
After the business was concluded, Hinata felt happy.
Starting from today, the Hinata family can start the path of evolution for all members.
Chapter 413 The shogi battle between Hinata and Shikamaru
In the Longdi Cave, several stone pillars that could only be hugged by five or six people supported the top. On a huge stone chair, a slightly old white snake was hovering above it.
White Snake has orange hair and yellow eyes, a green cat's eye stone on his chest, a purple ribbon as a forehead protector, a pipe in his mouth, an extremely long body, and two golden rings on his tail.
Above the stone chair is a huge dragon head statue with a scroll in its mouth and the three characters "Longdi Cave" written on it.
'Da da da……'
There was a sound of footsteps, and three 'people' who looked like human women slowly walked over.
The body of the White Snake Immortal squirmed slowly, and in an instant it turned into the appearance of a human old woman, with a very kind face.
As the top management of Ryuji Cave, Tianjin Jinji, Ichikijima Hime, and Tsunjin Hime are the elder-level confidants of the White Snake Sage. They have powerful celestial chakra in their bodies. In addition to managing the affairs of Ryūchi Cave, they are also responsible for the selection and entry. Humans in the Ryūchi Cave Trial.
Before the three of them could speak, the old voice of Immortal White Snake came over: "I know everything."
"White Snake Immortal..."
Tian Xinji looked unwilling, her originally delicate face suddenly turned ferocious, her gentle eyes turned into vicious snake eyes like Orochimaru, the snake's teeth were sharp, and her dark green tongue stretched out long.
Immortal White Snake sighed slightly and said in an indifferent tone: "Human affairs have nothing to do with us. You only need to protect Longdi Cave."
Ichikishimahime said dissatisfied: "But they have already reached out to Ryūchi Cave. If we don't pay attention..."
"Cough cough cough..."
Before Ichikijima Hime could finish her words, the White Snake Sage interrupted her with several coughs.
"It's been a thousand years..."
"You were born relatively late, so you don't know what happened at that time."
"Someone wants to release that person. The situation in the ninja world is changing now. If we intervene rashly, I'm afraid Ryūchi Cave will fall into irreversible disaster!"
Tian Xin Shenji frowned slightly and said in an arrogant and somewhat disbelieving tone: "With the strength of our Longdi Cave, are we still afraid of humans?"
Ichikishima-hime and Tatsujin-hime also had faces full of approval.
The Three Holy Lands have a transcendent status in the ninja world. They control natural energy and have been aloof for many years, overlooking all living beings in the ninja world.
Although human beings are the protagonists of this world, Tianxin Shenji has a lifespan of hundreds of years and looks down on all living beings for hundreds of years. Naturally, she will not take mere ninjas seriously.
The White Snake Immortal opened his eyes slightly, and slowly glanced at the three snakes. He said in a calm tone with a hint of refusal: "Don't interfere in human affairs easily. As for Chiya's matter... I will fight for it in the future. Get justice!"
Tian Xin Shen Ji and the others (snake) did not dare to refute, lowered their heads and said slightly: "Yes!"
"Go!" Immortal White Snake said in a tired tone.
Having experienced the Kaguya era and witnessed the development and changes of the ninja world over the past thousand years, the White Snake Immortal naturally knows the power of humans and understands their potential.
However, the ninja world today is more dangerous than it was a thousand years ago.
Although the White Snake Immortal never leaves his house, he also knows what has happened in the ninja world in recent years.
The three holy places seem to be of the same origin, but from the perspective of species, humans, frogs, slugs, and snakes are actually four completely different kinds of life.
Although humans call all creatures other than themselves "animals", the White Snake Immortal, as a snake, does not regard frogs and slugs as his own kind.
The Wet Bone Forest is weak, Myoboku Mountain yearns for peace, and Ryuchi Cave advocates strength.
Compared with the other two places, Ryuchi Cave has the ambition to replace humans as the protagonist of the world, but due to the problem of the number of tribes, it has to lie dormant for the time being.
In fact, just looking at the fact that Ryuchi Cave regards humans as food, it can be seen that they have never taken humans seriously.
"Son of prophecy..."
The White Snake Immortal muttered to himself.
Someone in the Ninja World has reached out to the Three Holy Lands. Obviously, the secret of natural energy has been exposed.
If it had happened a few years ago, the White Snake Immortal would not have easily revealed this matter. However, the Ninja World is changing rapidly now. If Ryuchido rashly steps forward, he will immediately become the target of various forces.
Especially now that Kaguya Otsutsuki is about to be resurrected, the human civil war is inevitable. The Three Holy Lands are connected to human society in the form of a spiritual contract, so they will naturally choose their own position.
