When the yellow ape was practicing immortal arts in Miaomu Mountain, the various affairs he had arranged before leaving Konoha were being carried out in an orderly manner.

Jintaro, who was arranged by the yellow ape to be in charge of the commercial affairs of the Bandai toy store, in order not to disappoint his eldest brother, devoted himself to the operation of the Bandai toy store without sleep or food.

With the help of his family's resources and connections, Shintaro soon recruited 57 skilled carpenters and upgraded the production line with Scorpion's parents.

At the same time, Shintaro also completed the business negotiations very well, not only signed an exclusive agreement with the merchant for the Bandai brand, but also got 100% of the gross profit he promised in the price negotiation.

After calculation, without counting the cost of character copyright and technical design, the cost of the three grades of toy products in Bandai Toy Store is 285 taels (the store price is 1000 taels), 784 taels (3000 taels), and 1203 taels (5000 taels).

After calculating the cost, Shintaro negotiated with the merchant for wholesale prices of 600 taels, 1,800 taels, and 3,200 taels.

Both parties are satisfied with this price, which can be regarded as a good foundation for future cooperation.

The three elders, who had been secretly supervising and observing, also praised Shintaro's performance after the negotiations.

Jintaro, who was praised, was very happy in his heart, but he was not satisfied, he hoped to be praised and recognized by the big brother of the yellow ape.

Therefore, after the negotiation ended, Shintaro stayed at the Bandai toy store, assisting Scorpion's parents in managing the recruited carpenters while taking charge of the external sales.

Knowing the future potential of Bandai Toys, the three elders were also happy to see such a situation, and did not call Jintaro back, but tacitly agreed that Jintaro would stay at the Bandai Toy Store.

As for the scorpion's parents, they don't have a problem with this, or they want it too.

The two of them, who had already died once for Sha Yin, were born as puppeteers, and now they like the development and manufacturing of toys.

Whenever they see the toys they designed and manufactured, which are loved and sought after by children, the hearts of the two are full of a sense of accomplishment.

Coupled with Scorpion's love for and pride in his parents' new job, the couple fell in love with their current work in toy development.

In addition, the two of them are not very good at sales and management work, and they are not very interested.

So, after knowing that Shintaro was willing to stay and help, they were naturally very happy.

Compared with the gratifying progress on Jintaro's side, Orochimaru, another partner of the yellow ape, has been more uncomfortable recently.

When the new year came, the intercolumnar cells developed for the disciple Rope Tree in cooperation with Tsunade continued to decline, and the yellow ape brought what Orochimaru had always wanted, about the location of the Dragon Cave.

With the arrival of two good things, it stands to reason that Orochimaru should have reaped double the happiness.

But alas, there is such a thing as happiness that will disappear.

After knowing the location of the Dragon Cave, Orochimaru, who was eager for immortal arts, took the ninja with his roots and went there as soon as possible.

After going through the test of the three snake Hime Tashin Shinhime, Ichikijima Hime, and Tuatsu Ji in Ryuji Cave, Orochimaru successfully met the White Snake Immortal and obtained the qualification to practice immortal arts.

Then, Orochimaru was dumbfounded.

Compared with the gradual and safer immortal cultivation method of Miaomu Mountain, the Dragon Land Cave, the holy land of the Great Snake Pill Contract, is quite simple and rude when it comes to the cultivation of immortal arts.

Unlike Miaomu Mountain, which gradually perceives and absorbs natural energy through toad oil, the immortal cultivation method of Longdi Cave is that the White Snake Immortal uses his fangs to inject natural energy into the contractor who has passed the trial, and then teaches the Longdi Cave Immortal Mode.

It doesn't sound very simple, but the problem is that this simple and crude way is extremely dangerous.

Once the practitioner does not maintain the balance of natural energy, the body transforms into a snake and is eaten!

As a mad scientist, Orochimaru is radical and crazy, but this is all for test subjects.

Now he wants to become a "guinea pig", and he will be directly injected with natural energy by the White Snake Immortal, and the rest will be left to talent and luck.

For such an unstable, extremely risky, and unknown immortal cultivation method, Orochimaru was a little unacceptable.

What's more, the White Snake Immortal also told Orochimaru that his chakra amount is not too much (Jing 7), and the success rate of practicing the immortal mode of the Dragon Earth Cave will not be too high.

Faced with such a situation, Orochimaru did not recklessly choose to cultivate immortal arts, but left the Dragon Earth Cave.

Of course, this trip to the Dragon Earth Cave, the Great Snake Pill was not completely fruitless.

On the periphery of the entrance to the Dragon Earth Cave, Orochimaru found a village where the villagers instinctively absorbed some natural energy because they lived close to the Dragon Earth Cave.

Adhering to the concept of sustainable development, but also to observe the long-term effects of natural energy on these villagers, Orochimaru did not directly pack all these villagers away, but secretly collected a lot of blood and human tissue samples.

At the same time, Orochimaru also used becoming a ninja and gaining power as bait to take away several teenagers from this village who were unwilling to be ordinary and eager to get ahead.

With these harvests, Orochimaru, along with the ninja of the roots, returned to Konoha.

After returning to Konoha, Orochimaru and Tsunade, together with Tsunade, transplanted improved intercolumnar cells for his disciple Rope Tree before he began his retreat to study natural energy.

For his own disciples, as well as this intercolumn cell transplant, Orochimaru has high hopes.

According to the calculation of the Great Snake Pill, the Thousand Hands Rope Tree with the bloodline of the Thousand Hands lineage should have a great chance that under the strengthening and stimulation of the inter-column cells, the Awakening Wood Escape Blood Inheritance Limit.

The disciple of the rope tree did not disappoint his teacher, Orochimaru, and on the third day after transplanting the intercolumnar cells, he awakened the Mu Dun Blood Inheritance Limit.

This would have been something that made both Orochimaru and Tsunade happy.

However, as expected, the unexpected accident came, and the awakened wood escape blood inheritance limit of the rope tree had a slight deviation.

Maybe it's because the awakening is not thorough enough, or maybe it's because the qualifications are not enough, the rope tree's awakened wood escapes the limit, and it can't turn into wood, but only grass.

Yes, the chakra nature of Earth Escape and Water Escape was changed at the same time, and the original Hokage Senju Pillar was transformed into wood, and the rope tree was transformed into grass.

"Wood Escape: The Art of the Great Forest!"

In the No. 37 training ground, under the watchful eyes of his teacher and sister, Rope Tree practiced using the secret technique of Mu Dun that had been passed down from his family.

With the seal and shout of the rope tree, his right hand turned into dozens of green grass, which were still relatively thick.

These tough, thick grasses, like steel cables, spiraled together and spread forward.

Seeing this scene, Orochimaru's expression was flat, but he was still a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Tsunade and Tsunade worked hard to develop and improve the intercolumnar cells, and after the successful transplantation, you woke me up?

This kid is hopeless, forget it, I'm tired!

Beside Orochimaru, Tsunade patted her forehead with a strange expression, obviously she was also a little confused by her brother's awakening.

However, as a qualified older sister, Tsunade knows that his younger brother needs encouragement, not accusation and ridicule at this time.

She smiled, stepped forward, and walked over to the rope tree with a look of loss on her face.

Raising his hand and pressing it on the head of the rope tree, Tsunade smiled and praised loudly: "It's a good job, you can successfully perform it in the first practice, and you deserve to be my younger brother!" ”

"But, sister, I didn't use Mu Dun." Looking at Tsunade's smile, Rope Tree said in disbelief.

"There is no waste ninjutsu, only waste ninja! Rope tree, the grass you just used, I think there is a lot of potential for development. Tsunade looked at the rope tree carefully, guiding the education.

"Really?" Rope asked unconfidently.

"Compared to your grandfather's Mu Dun, although your Grass Dun is a little weaker in terms of attack, it is more flexible in other aspects and has great potential for development." Tsunade said encouragingly.

"I understand my sister, I will specialize in grass escape ninjutsu!" The right hand was raised, clenched into a fist, and the rope tree said firmly.

Have a late-night snack and a watch!
