Chapter 157. Prologue Kicks Off (7)
So how much do you know? ”
Naruto, who was sitting next to Sakura, opened his eyes and asked.
"Someone in the village is colluding with Orochimaru, and they are going to attack Konoha during the final match of the middle ninja exam in a month's time."
Sasuke glanced at the male shinobi with the bandage on his head at his feet, and continued: "The curse mark that Orochimaru left on my body is a means that allows him to launch some kind of forbidden technique to seize the body of others at the right time, and these people are the tools that Orochimaru arranged to test my strength after receiving the curse mark. ”
"In addition, I also know some interesting information about Orochimaru, he turned out to be one of the three ninjas of Konoha before he became the leader of Otogakure Village, and his teacher is the third generation Hokage."
"And what else did you just ask?"
Naruto and the shadow clones swapped places, grabbed the back of the necks of the two on the ground with both hands, and lifted them up, "Isn't that already clear?" ”
"All this information was obtained from this guy named Doss."
Sasuke raised his eyebrows, looked at the man in Naruto's left hand and said, "The information he knows was also revealed to him by the Yakushidou who took the initiative to greet us before, my strange place is here, in this Dos's memory, Yakushidou is an assistant of Orochimaru, and most of the time he is in the Otoin Village, so how did he successfully participate in the previous seven Zhongnin selection exams as Konoha Shinobi." ”
"You'd better speak up if you have something to say."
Naruto squeezed his left hand, and with a "click", Doss's bandaged head immediately twisted to the side: "I'm still busy doing experiments." ”
Sasuke's expression was stunned, and he immediately answered, "I want to know who colluded with Orochimaru." ”
"Huh?"
Naruto took a serious look at Sasuke, and a smile appeared on his face, "That's really good, you're getting more and more scheming now." ”
Swish!
With that, Naruto disappeared into thin air with the test subject in his hand.
"Does the person who colluded with Orochimaru have anything to do with the Uchiha extermination?"
Sasuke's eyes froze, then he turned to look at Naruto who was sitting next to Sakura and asked.
"Yes."
Naruto smiled and said, "As you guessed, he is one of the key figures behind the truth about the Uchiha's extermination. ”
"Good."
The corners of Sasuke's mouth were smiling, but his eyes were full of murderous intent.
~~~~~~~~~
At the same time, in a spacious laboratory in the Snow Country, Naruto stood in front of a desk, ink pen in hand, and quickly drew a large complex spell on a blank scroll with a focused expression, and on one side of the scroll was a kunai, and on the handle of the kunai hung a rune paper with a black spell on it.
It didn't take long for Naruto to put the ink pen aside, then picked up the scroll that had been pulled apart and the kunai with the rune paper tied to it and turned behind him, where the two test subjects he had brought with him lay on the ground.
"First of all, a certain amount of personal intelligence material of the deceased is used to sign the contract."
Burst!
Placing the scroll on the ground, Naruto stabbed Doss in the back with his hand, which was already dead, and then two chakra lines popped out of his fingertips to pull Doss's entity aside, and then used the kunai to pull out a few drops of blood from the technique drawn on the scroll.
"Then summon the souls of the dead from the Pure Land and attach them to the sacrifices that have been prepared."
As Naruto's words fell, the blood stained on the scroll fused together as if it had consciousness, and at the same time, the black charm on the scroll extended along the ground, turning into a huge magic barrier around the unconscious female ninja in the blink of an eye.
"Psychics! Reincarnation of the Filthy Earth! ”
Seeing this, Naruto quickly finished the four mudras, and clasped his hands together with a "snap".
"Ahh
The magic barrier under the female ninja lit up, and something like confetti quickly floated on the ground and wrapped around her, and as the female ninja was overwhelmed by more and more confetti, her consciousness suddenly woke up, and she let out a howl of pain.
The moment the howling stopped, the female ninja and the magic barrier on the ground were gone, and in its place was a Doss who was exactly the same as the corpse on the ground.
"Heh... Scold.... I'm ..."
"That's a good technique."
The reincarnated Doss did not have a single crack on his face except that his eyes were different from those of a living person.
Many years ago, Orochimaru was accidentally knocked out by the three generations of Hokage in the Forest of Death, and at that time, because he was eager to show himself in front of the three generations of Hokage, he used the filthy earth reincarnation that was still improving, and as a result, the summoned Thousand Hand Pillars failed to collapse as soon as the spell was inserted, and then because of the precedent of the three generations of Kazekage breaking free on their own, he devoted himself to research, and finally perfected the filthy earth reincarnation to a step further than the filthy earth reincarnation shown by Yakushidou in the original book.
Naruto walked behind Dos in a few steps and reached out to insert the kunai with the rune paper into his head, but the moment his hand touched the back of Doss's head, a mirror world suddenly sounded in his head.
'Detect the restrained soul, do you want to harvest it!' ’
'Detect the restrained soul, do you want to harvest it!' ’
“......”
"Huh?"
Naruto's eyes froze, and when Kunai sank into Doss's head, he withdrew his hand, and the sound disappeared immediately, and he immediately pressed his hand on the back of Doss's neck again.
'Detect the restrained soul, do you want to harvest it!' ’
The mechanical chime began to sound again.
"Naruto is experimenting again?"
In the mirror world, Isofu slapped Chiyo with a tail, and then turned to look at the three companions on the other side.
I saw Chongming fold his wings and lie motionless on the other side, I don't know if he was staring at himself, King Mu was blinking at himself, but no matter how he looked at it, his eyes revealed a look of sympathy, and when he turned his gaze again, he saw that the Nine Lamas were staring at him with a smile on his face.
"Have you been reborn in your own life?"
"Nope."
"Then you go on, everyone's hope is in you."
"Eh~Nine Lamas, it was a pure accident that I was able to get the reincarnation of the filthy soil from the Great Snake Pill before..."
"No, no, no! Look at your results, you just came in and got the ghoul seal and the eight doors of Dunjia, and as soon as the data puppet of the Great Snake Pill appeared, you immediately got the reincarnation of the filthy earth, even if it was an accident... Hey! We also agree that you will soon be able to recreate this surprise here in Chiyo. ”
"I..."
"Hurry up and start, in order not to affect you, we will not participate in joint battles."
“.......”
In the lab, Naruto was also smiling, he had chosen to harvest souls, and the mechanical sound had stopped.
"Congratulations! Successfully harvest souls from other worlds; Doss Anvil, the data is starting to parse..."
"Huh?"
Naruto was stunned again, how could there be no hints of data analysis in the past when harvesting souls, and he found that after Toth was harvested souls, his body was still in a state of reincarnation.
"Wouldn't the person who was reincarnated from the filthy soil return to the original sacrificial appearance if he didn't have a soul, and the reminder just now was a restrained soul, which is also different from the previous reminder of harvesting other people's souls..."
"Data parsing complete! The soul has a special prosthetic body that carries consciousness; Note: After turning on the soul birth function, you can use the puppet resurrection function to convert to a world slave, the current data is insufficient, please complete the data as soon as possible! ”
"What?"
Naruto looked stunned, he was still thinking about how to make good use of this sudden surprise just now, but he didn't expect the mirror world to give him such an explanation.
Bang!
As soon as the voice of the mirror world faded away, Toth in front of Naruto also fell to the ground, and then the confetti that appeared with the reincarnation of filthy earth was scattered all over the ground, and the appearance of the female ninja who was used as a sacrifice also reverted.
"Is there not enough data..."
Naruto pondered as he dragged Doss's body to the female shinobi with the chakra line, and then a cold air instantly filled the laboratory, and in the blink of an eye, the bodies of Doss and the female shinobi were frozen into a large ice cube.
Boom!
A shadow clone appeared next to Naruto, and without saying a word, he pressed against the ice cube before activating the Flying Thor.
At the same time, Xiang Phosphorus, who had already changed her clothes, followed the red-haired woman to another floor of the busy office building.
"Aunt Kushina, you said that you used your perception to lock my chakra at the beginning of the middle ninja exam, but why didn't I sense you?"
"And did you discover the barrier shrouded in the Forest of Death?"
"Mmmm, when I spread out my perception, I vaguely felt that I was being watched by some kind of enchantment."
"When I used my perception in Konoha to use my perception, I integrated my chakra fluctuations into the enchantment stretched out by the Konoha Enchantment, so neither you nor Konoha could detect me."
"But how do you know the technique of the enchantment, didn't you say that you weren't from Konoha?"
"Of course, I learned about the technique of the enchantment from the people of Konoha Village, although they didn't tell me voluntarily... Your mother didn't tell you anything about Konoha and the Vortex Country? ”
"No, my mother never told me about my hometown, and before she left me, she only told me to try to live..."
"Then why did you insist on coming to the lab to find me? As a ninja, your foundation is a mess, except for using your own abundant chakra to forcibly perceive others, I gave you so many Uzumaki Clan's sealing techniques, if you don't take a good rest and practice seriously to become stronger, how can you work hard to survive in this world. ”
"I want to know more about my hometown first..."
"I can tell you about my hometown later, and you also know that I'm just a shadow clone, and now I have to complete the things arranged by the ontology..."
"I can help Aunt Kushina!"
Xiang Phosphorus looked at the red-haired woman with wide eyes, and said in a very serious tone: "Mom said, I am very useful!" ”
"Okay."
The red-haired woman waved over to a staff member who was busy with her work, and after saying a few words, Xiang Phosphorus saw a fist-sized scroll appear out of thin air in the staff member's hand.
There was an immediate look of curiosity in her eyes.
"Since you don't want to learn sealing, let's learn this first."
After saying that, the red-haired woman took the scroll from the staff's hand and handed it to Xiang Li.
"It's not that I don't want to learn sealing..."
Xiang Phosphorus muttered with a little embarrassment, and when she saw the scroll handed over, she was curious: "What is this?" ”
The red-haired woman smiled and said, "You can just open it and take a look." ”
Xiang Phosphorus nodded slightly, and after holding the glasses on the bridge of her nose, she opened the scroll expectantly, and then her face showed a look of astonishment.
"Aunt Kushina, do I still need to learn medical ninjutsu?"
~~~~~~~~~
Just as night fell, Mitarai Azuki met the third Hokage in an office at the ninja school, and she gave a detailed account of what she had discovered by tracking down Orochimaru.
When the three generations of Hokage heard that Orochimaru's target for returning to the village this time was Sasuke, a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes, and he didn't ask about the specific situation, as long as his target was not Naruto.
When Azuki had someone report to him that Orochimaru had appeared and disguised himself as a candidate to infiltrate the Forest of Death, he immediately prepared to send Kakashi and Tenzo to the Forest of Death, as he suspected that Orochimaru was going for Naruto.
However, just as he asked the two to go, the people of the enchantment class told him that Orochimaru's chakra suddenly appeared far away from Naruto's team, and that the chakra of the Nine-Tails did not appear, and Naruto's chakra fluctuations did not disappear.
As for Orochimaru's threat to let Red Bean tell him not to interrupt the middle ninja exam, he didn't take it to heart, the assessment has already reached this point, and the letters inviting the daimyo from all countries to come to the competition site in person after a month have been sent, and now if the middle ninja exam is interrupted, then Konoha will become a joke.
It is not advisable to act rashly at the moment, and now he is thinking about it, since his disciple is here for Sasuke, why didn't he take people away after approaching Sasuke, after Konoha announced the convening of the middle ninja exam, Yun Yin and Iwakuin have been harassing on the border, and the three generations of Hokage feel that there must be a conspiracy in this.
Could it be that Orochimaru has already conspired with other ninja villages?
"So will the ninja village who will take this middle ninja exam be..."
The three generations of Hokage had just thought of this, when Moonlight Blaster suddenly pushed the door and walked in.
"Hokage-sama! Jiraiya-sama is back. ”
"You're back?"
The eyes of the three generations of Hokage lit up: "Where is he now?" ”
..........
A few minutes later, the three generations of Hokage ascended to the Hokage Rock behind the Hokage's office.
"How long have you been back?"
"Ah~ just came back."
A burly figure slowly turned around, this person was Jiraiya, he looked at the three generations of Hokage, and said in a calm tone: "Standing here, you can carefully see the changes in the village. ”
The third Hokage glanced at the forehead guard on this person's head, and said in a condensed voice, "Orochimaru is also back." ”
"He's back, too?"
Jiraiya showed a look of memory on his face: "Then it's time for Tsunade now." ”
The third Hokage shook his head lightly: "Now the other advisors in the village are busy going to the border, and it is just the right time for you to come back, in a few days..."
"Old man, there's something I want to ask you."
Jiraiya interrupted the three generations of Hokage, and his expression became extremely solemn: "How did the three disciples I took in the Land of Rain die. ”
~~~~~~~~~~~~
At the same time, in the Forest of Death, the shadow clone left by Naruto greeted Sasuke and Sakura who woke up and walked out of the cave where the three of them were camping, and after a few minutes he walked back and just sat down, the voice of King Mu came from the seal.
"Naruto, Konoha will come to you!"
