Chapter 45: Talking about eternal life with Uncle Snake
"Yuanjun, what are you going to do? Didn't Mr. Sarufei ask you to make a healing charm? Orochimaru asked.
"I've been making healing charms for almost 3 months in a row, so the reserves in the village should be enough!" Yamanaka replied helplessly.
"But there are not too many healing charms. Yuanjun, you haven't answered my question just now, what are you going to do? ”
"Orochimaru-sama, I'm going to the Konoha Library to see the Wind Escape Ninjutsu." Orochimaru repeatedly asked Yamanaka Yuan, so he could only tell the truth.
"Wind Escape Ninjutsu?" Orochimaru looked thoughtfully at Yamanaka Yuan.
"Yes, Orochimaru-sama, the war is about to start, and I want to enrich myself as much as possible before the war starts."
"How can the Konoha Library have Wind Escape Ninjutsu?"
"Brother Watergate took the newly graduated Shinobi to do special training, and Uncle Ziraiya went out on a mission, so I can only go to the library to see the basic wind escape ninjutsu." Yamanaka explained.
"Feng Escape, it just so happens that I will too, do you need me to help you demonstrate Feng Escape?" The temptation just now made Orochimaru full of interest in Yamanaka Yuan.
"Then it's going to be a hassle for Orochimaru-sama." Yamanaka Yuan pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.
As one of the three ninjas, Orochimaru, his strength is a proper shadow level. Moreover, at this time, Orochimaru had not used [Immortal Reincarnation] to transform his body, his soul was not defective, and he was not afraid of illusions.
In the third training ground, Orochimaru demonstrated various wind escape ninjutsu to Yamanaka Yuan, from C-level to A-level, which made Yamanaka Yuan breathtaking.
And not only the demonstration, Orochimaru even explained the characteristics and disadvantages of the common Wind Escape Ninjutsu to Yamanaka Yuan one by one. Yamanaka had to admit that in terms of ninjutsu, Orochimaru was more knowledgeable than Jiraiya.
After the Wind Escape Ninjutsu demonstration, Orochimaru and Yamanaka Yuan chatted.
"Yuan-kun, you are also a medical ninja, what is life to you?"
Orochimaru's question reminded Yamanaka of him in the original book. When Orochimaru was a child, he began to seek the meaning of life due to the death of his parents, and in the step-by-step exploration, Orochimaru felt the fragility of life and the shortness of life.
Orochimaru was originally a genius in ninjutsu, and after realizing the fragility and transience of life, he began to study immortal ninjutsu.
In the study of the arts, Orochimaru became more and more indifferent to the existence of life, and became more and more unscrupulous, and even experimented with ninjas and children in the same village in the future, until he was betrayed by Tuan Zang and defected to Konoha.
When Yamanaka started watching anime in his previous life, his first impression of Orochimaru was not good, and the reason was very simple, few people would like a villain who killed his teacher.
And Yamanaka Yuan's perception of Orochimaru began to change after the appearance of Orochi, a person who imitated Orochimaru's way of survival even had more things than Orochimaru, and it was the appearance of this character that made Yamanaka Yuan feel that Orochimaru's life was also very interesting.
Later, the words that Orochimaru said when he went to rescue Tsunade made Yamanaka Yuan turn to this pre-anime boss Hei.
Coming to the Hokage world, in his previous life, Yamanaka was an emerging young man who grew up under the red flag, received a materialist education, and was also a medical worker, and he was more and more interested in Uncle Snake, the only one in the Hokage who believed in science, after all, they were all scientists.
Among the many evaluations of Orochimaru in his previous life, there is one Zhongshan who likes it very much: "In the Hokage, some people believe in blood, some people believe in will, some people believe in the body, some people believe in eyes, some people believe in innate inheritance, and some people believe in acquired efforts." Only Orochimaru, he believes in science! ”
"Uncle Snake, I think life is the most fragile, especially the life of a ninja. A kunai can kill a ninja, a ninjutsu can kill a ninja, and a detonation charm can kill a ninja. ”
Yamanaka's words made Orochimaru's eyes light up slightly, it was the first time he had heard such words, words that were so close to his philosophy.
"Although life is fragile and short, there are certain things that life brings that are priceless and eternal. Ninjutsu is passed down from generation to generation, the inheritance of the blood inheritance limit, and the love of parents for their children. ”
Yamanaka's words made Orochimaru silent, and it was certainly impossible to shake Orochimaru's belief just by a few words from Yamanaka, but Yamanaka's answer reminded him of his parents.
"Then Yuanjun, do you think it is possible for people to reach eternal life?" Obviously, Yamanaka Yuan's words just now are resonant, otherwise he would not have asked such a question.
In the previous life, Naruto fans often said that if you are lucky enough to be born in Konoha, you must talk to Uncle Snake for eternity. Yamanaka has made this wish true for the majority of Naruto fans.
Immortality is in the Hokage world, only Otsuki Kaguya has really attained it, and she who eats the chakra fruit of the sacred tree is an immortal existence.
The immortality of the Kakudu Flying Section is considered an evil art, and Orochimaru's [Immortal Reincarnation] is even more at the cost of sacrificing part of his soul.
Before, Yamanaka Yuan was actually not very interested in eternal life, because in his opinion, it was enough to be able to see the prosperity of the world for decades.
But now that he has someone he likes, Yamanaka's thoughts have also changed a little. It's also a beautiful thing to be able to spend time with your lover.
"Uncle Snake, I think immortality is possible in a sense." After careful consideration, Yamanaka still said this answer.
The reason why people die of old age is because genes make mistakes in the process of mutation and replication. There is no 100% perfect replication, and the human body has no way to correct such small mistakes.
Over time, errors in gene replication accumulate more and more, and eventually become a major bug that cannot be fixed, which paralyzes the entire system and makes it difficult to function smoothly. (PS: This paragraph was told by a teacher when I was in college.) )
If a gene is left at the peak of the human body, and this gene is perfectly replicated to form a new human body, and then the person's consciousness is transferred to the new body, a new life begins.
This kind of thing is naturally impossible in the previous life, and it is impossible for the human consciousness or soul to be transferred at all, and the study of the soul in the Hokage world has been successfully applied in ninjutsu.
[Spiritualization Technique], [Ghoul Sealing], and [Reincarnation of Corpses] are all soul-related techniques.
The method that Yamanaka Yuan thought of was actually the same way as Orochimaru's [Immortal Reincarnation], but Yamanaka's method could effectively avoid soul damage.
Yamanaka was far from telling Orochimaru about this method, and of course he wouldn't use it himself. On the one hand, the current technical requirements of the Hokage world cannot meet this vision, and on the other hand, this world has the magical power of chakra.
The immortality achieved in the Hokage world using the science of the previous life was not the result that Yamanaka Yuan wanted. Even if one day it really wants to live forever, Yamanaka will be as truly immortal as Kaguya Otsuki.
And now he is not very interested in such things as eternal life, and Yamanaka's goal is still the strongest in the ninja world.
And Orochimaru, after getting Yamanaka's answer, was very satisfied, and chatting with Yamanaka made him feel like he had found a soulmate.
When Orochimaru was preparing to have an in-depth discussion with Yamanaka Yuan, the Shadow Ninja brought him an order from the Hokage, and the third Hokage asked Orochimaru to go to the Hokage's office immediately.
"Yuanjun, I hope we can have a chance to chat together next time." Orochimaru said goodbye to Yamanaka and then turned and left.
