Chapter 302: The Last Chance [I]
In Tsunade's attention, attracted by the hypothesis proposed by Naruto. And then he was stunned, just as Naruto expected, he subconsciously nodded slightly, and involuntarily agreed with Naruto's statement.
It wasn't until now that Tsunade fully realized that she was not the only one who could give Jiraiya a happy choice, from beginning to end. Even on the contrary, it is ironic that even though he knew that Tsunade would not accept it, he still chose to silently protect Tsunade. Even under the seemingly wandering appearance of Jiraiya, in order to be able to protect Tsunade all the time, he willingly gave up all the opportunities he had encountered over the years to start a family.
After all, as long as you can see that the woman you love is safe and sound, and finally be happy. Even if this life comes to an end, he is still a carefree single. Jilai, who is more dedicated than anyone else, is probably willing.
Of course, after all, Naruto is not a devil......
When Tsunade realized this, the truth that she should have guessed a long time ago caused the originally indestructible frozen heart to be shaken, and cracks began to appear......
"Ah, by the way, there's one more thing I almost forgot to mention......"
Naruto, who was smiling, was distracted by Tsunade's stunned distraction, and the smile on his face became more and more vigorous, while controlling the decibel of his words. And then keep it to the extent that Tsunade, who happens to be only at the end of the distance, can hear the words clearly, and continues word by word.
"Now, Grandma Tsunade...... The reason why Orochimaru was expelled from Konoha Ninja Village back then was because he used live human experiments to try to develop a forbidden ninjutsu that could allow him to obtain eternal and immortal life, right? ”
"Hmm...... Well? Seems so...... Why did you suddenly remember to ask this? ”
The abrupt voice of the person next to him asked,Tsunade in his mind was in a mess.,Summoned the consciousness of Tsunade.,Brought back to reality.。 Then he bowed his head slightly with a slight stiffness and sluggishness, and followed Naruto's gaze. After a cursory understanding of Naruto's question, he replied uncertainly.
After all, compared to walking outside the village all the year round, but always worrying about the safety of the village, and returning to the village from time to time to walk the self...... Tsunade who has also been away from his former residence for many years, but from beginning to end, he has never set foot in this homeland again.
Because of this, compared to the exposure of forbidden human experiments, the three generations of Hokage, who were heartbroken, gave Orochimaru who was expelled from the Konoha Ninja Village by himself...... Not long after the death of his former lover Kato, he chose to take Kato's niece to mute and leave the hometown of Konoha Ninja Village, which is full of sad memories, in the midst of losing his soul. But it was much earlier than Orochimaru, who was expelled from the village. So much so that the reason why Orochimaru was expelled from the village, Tsunade was just hearsay that was accidentally obtained under the spread of some gossip.
In other words, since leaving the village, Tsunade's understanding of the current situation of the Konoha Ninja Village can be said to be half a pound or even far worse than those forces outside the village......
After all, after Tsunade left the village, he became ignorant of the situation in the Konoha Ninja Village while deliberately avoiding and staying away.
And those forces outside the village, either out of coveting the rich resources of the Konoha Ninja Village, or because they are afraid of the strong strength of the Konoha Ninja Village, have never stopped investigating the intelligence of the Konoha Ninja Village. So much so that compared with each other, not to mention the truth or falsehood for the time being, the major and small forces outside the village now have much more information about the current situation of Konoha Ninja Village than Tsunade, who was born and raised in Konoha Ninja Village.
With this as a premise, coupled with Naruto's unexpected and surprising remarks before, Tsunade was suddenly alerted that Naruto had something to say. Immediately subconsciously responded, but in his heart he was afraid that Naruto would throw some bombshell again, and while secretly vigilant, he felt more and more unconfident.
"Because, if the information of the third generation of Hokage's grandfather is not wrong......"
In the face of Tsunade's unnatural appearance in response, Naruto seemed to be unaffected at all, just glanced at it, and continued to respond with a normal expression while pretending to blink innocently.
"The forbidden ninjutsu that Orochimaru dreamed of has already taken shape...... Or rather, it's preliminarily done. ”
Of course, the degree of concealment in Orochimaru's secret laboratory is comparable to that of the Akatsuki organization's base camp...... Everywhere was restricted by the group of elders led by Danzang, and it was only in recent years that Danzang was completely killed by Naruto and was able to exert his full strength. And then the three generations of Hokage, who were busy leading the Konoha Ninja Village and starting a new round of rapid development, whether it was due to the shortage of manpower, or the reason why he couldn't figure out how to deal with Orochimaru for a while, it was impossible to dedicate people to investigate the location of Orochimaru's secret laboratory...... In other words, the so-called "information of Grandpa Hokage of the third generation" is obviously a smoke bomb deliberately mentioned by Naruto in order to increase the credibility of his words, relying on the advantage that Tsunade after leaving the village did not know anything about the current situation of the Konoha Ninja Village.
It's just that, except for the fact that the information comes from the three generations of Hokage, it belongs to Naruto's casual nonsense. Naruto's statement that Orochimaru, at this moment, has developed the evil forbidden ninjutsu that takes away the shells of others to prolong his own life, is not untargeted.
After all, in the final analysis, the one who occupies the identity of "Naruto Uzumaki" at this time is the soul of a traverser. And then according to the memories of his previous life, he watched the original plot of Naruto repeatedly. In the previous one-on-one close encounter, the Orochimaru Flow Molting Stand-in Technique that he witnessed, as well as the true body of the fair-skinned python that was no longer part of the human category by combining countless tiny white snakes, were used as evidence and capital for speculation. Let Naruto more or less be able to judge that the ninjutsu development of Orochimaru's rebirth must have made a lot of progress in the years since he left Konoha Ninja Village. Immediately when he mentioned this matter without blushing and panting, it was naturally not considered to be deceiving Tsunade.
"...... Already done? How is this possible——!? ”
At the same time, after hearing about another bombshell dropped by Naruto. Tsunade, who was originally a medical ninja and knew how difficult it was to obtain an eternal life of immortality, was suddenly stunned and couldn't help but exclaim. Then he paused slightly, and while he couldn't help but look at the big snake pill a few more times, he pursed his lips and gritted his teeth, but his heart, which was not very peaceful, turned out to be a monstrous wave.
"If this is true, doesn't that mean that it is also possible to raise the dead......
"I know what you're thinking, Grandma Tsunade...... Moreover, I can tell you unequivocally that resurrecting the dead, this forbidden ninjutsu that violates the laws of nature, was developed as early as when your grandfather, the second generation of Hokage-sama, was alive with a thousand hands - that is the absolutely forbidden ninjutsu, the reincarnation of the soil. ”
From Tsunade's distracted appearance, Naruto realized that in the face of this incredible fact, Tsunade began to think about whether there was a possibility of resurrecting his lover and brother, who had been dead for many years, and reuniting with him. And between the originally smiling eyebrows, it was imperceptible to wrinkle slightly, revealing a little dissatisfaction and disgust. In a calm tone without joy or sorrow, he unceremoniously poured a basin of cold water on the crazy thoughts that Tsunade had just ignited.
"Of course, let's not mention for the time being, how difficult is it to perform this ninjutsu...... It's like if you want to perform ninjutsu, you have to consume chakra. Trying to resurrect the sleeping dead in this mortal world will also have to pay a corresponding price - that is, the life of another living person will be used as a necessary medium sacrifice when performing this forbidden ninjutsu! ”
Between the words, Naruto, who originally maintained the innocent and innocent appearance of a child, was silent, revealing a cold and solemn appearance that a child could not have. And the perception that was originally unconsciously wandering around the body instantly locked on Tsunade's body. It's as if as long as there is anything unusual in Tsunade, he will shoot directly without mercy!
Because, after coming to the world of Naruto, and in the case of the three generations of Hokage full of guilt, Naruto was unconditionally pampered and connived by the three generations of Hokage. Obviously, you don't need to wait until you graduate from the ninja school to trigger the main plot of stealing the art of sealing through Mizuki's instigation before you have the opportunity to read the content of the art of sealing. And then in the process of reading and learning the art of sealing as an ordinary ninjutsu scroll. For Naruto, who was developed by the second Hokage himself and written into the sealing technique himself, and is strictly forbidden to circulate in the world, he has a forbidden ninjutsu that brings people back to life - the art of reincarnation of the soil, which is already in the original plot, and Naruto, who has not seen the magic of this ninjutsu, naturally has a further in-depth understanding.
Because of this, Naruto, who has personally experienced the powerful allure of the art of reincarnation from the Filthy Earth, knows it very well in his heart...... Once you have the opportunity, you can resurrect the deceased and fill the gaps in your heart. How deadly is it for people who live alone in the world and suffer from painful memories all the time......
Even if Naruto's body had the soul of an adult. However, in the process of flipping through the art of sealing, I saw for the first time the detailed practice method of the art of reincarnation in the soil. Naruto also had to admit that the allure of this ninjutsu was so great that he almost led himself to the old path of Orochimaru...... That is, like Orochimaru, who saw the cultivation method of the art of reincarnation for the first time, and thought wholeheartedly about how to grasp it firmly. And after that, he resurrected his "deceased" parents and fulfilled his long-cherished wish of family reunion!
And the reason why Naruto was able to get rid of this temptation was because the Watergate couple "died" together when Naruto was just born. So much so that Naruto has been in the Naruto world for so many years, and he has never seen the Watergate couple in a real sense and experienced the love of his parents in this life. makes Naruto's bond and connection with the Mizuto couple as parents not very deep. The main reason is......
In addition to using a living person as a sacrifice, you also need another thing to perform the art of reincarnation—that is, the genetic fragments of the dead who want to be resurrected......
This alone really stumped Naruto, who almost had a hot brain at that time and ran directly to resurrect the Mizuto couple!
After all, if you are a completely dead person, you only need to dig up the grave and open the coffin, and get it directly from the corpse...... Although this practice is too disrespectful for the deceased who have already been buried in the earth. But I have to say that in practice, there is not much difficulty.
But when it was Naruto's turn to do so, he was completely confused......
After all, nominally, in the Nine-Tails Rebellion planned and triggered by Obito back then, in order to reseal the Nine Lamas, the Watergate couple who both died were not dead at all! And then under the leadership of the unknown leader, quietly left. The Konoha Ninja Village had no choice but to identify the Mizumon couple as the Nine Lamas whose bones were rampant and rampant, and they were completely bombarded to slag and could not be recovered, and built a clothed mound with no appearance.
In other words, in the graves of the Watergate couples, there is actually no body of the Watergate couple at all. And looking at the entire Konoha Ninja Village, because the Water Gate couple does not have a scarce and powerful bloodstain boundary, no one has deliberately collected and preserved the genetic fragments of the two...... In this case, even if Naruto really wants to "resurrect" the Mizumon couple, it will be difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice! In the face of this powerless fact, he imitated a well-known emoji, and looked up to the sky and sighed, "The concubine can't do it!" "That's it.
Because of this, although he was a little disgusted, Tsunade obviously didn't want Jirai to be snatched away by outsiders, but in Naruto's words, he thought that in this world, there may be a forbidden ninjutsu that resurrects the dead, and he was worried about the indecisive appearance of his deceased lover. But Naruto didn't blame too much...... In other words, Naruto knew very well in his heart that in the face of the fact that he was powerless, Fang was gradually forced to calm down and choose to give up on himself. I don't have the qualifications to accuse Tsunade of anything.
Of course, what Naruto didn't know was ......
After Naruto flattered himself from the three generations of Hokage, he finally got permission to flip through the sealing technique. In fact, it was also a test that the three generations of Hokage deliberately gave Naruto in order to avoid the recurrence of Orochimaru's defection - after all, in the war, Orochimaru, who had endured too much life and death, was so that his psychology gradually distorted. It was after learning of the existence of the art of reincarnation in the soil. Step by step, he slowly degenerated, and under the increasingly uncontrollable mad ambition of immortality, he lost his qualification to become the fourth Hokage.
In other words, Naruto, who lost his parents since he was a child and showed extraordinary talent, has a lot in common with the former Orochimaru. And in the eyes of the three generations of Hokage, as long as Naruto passes this test, it means that Naruto will not be like Orochimaru, who will not embark on a path of no return full of darkness. And when he retires, he can hand over the position of Hokage, which should have been passed on to his juniors, to Naruto with confidence!
It's just that if the three generations of Hokage know the real reason why Naruto passed this test......
