Konoha: Starting with a sign-in for Hashirama cells

"It's not hard work at all!" Tianxin Shenji shook her head and said, then realized she had lost her composure and covered it up with a dry cough.

Also requiring blood as a medium, Tashin Shinki activated reverse summoning, summoning Orochimaru from the secret base.

The smoke dissipated.

Upon realizing where he was, especially upon seeing Sasuke, Orochimaru's expression changed slightly.

What made him even more uneasy was that his body was being grabbed by something unseen, rendering him unable to move.

Naruto thanked him and left with Orochimaru.

Hinata left with them.

Sasuke didn't leave.

He was unaware of, uninterested in, what Naruto was going to do, and equally unappreciative of Orochimaru's tailed beasts.

We can capture the tailed beasts later. First, we should learn about Sage Mode and then formulate our next plan based on the actual situation.

We walked about ten kilometers.

Naruto said, "It's been a long time."

Having tried various methods to escape, all of which ended in failure, Orochimaru, though not showing his bad mood on his face, smiled and said, "Actually, it wasn't that long."

“In my opinion, it’s been a long time,” Naruto said, “especially considering how much effort I’ve put into finding you and how much I long to see you.”

"Oh dear, how strange. Why do you want to see me so much?" Orochimaru laughed.

Naruto didn't explain; he preferred doing to saying.

Take out the Shisui Sharingan stored in the container.

The power of the Asura Path is activated.

By controlling the collapse of his left palm, he created a small pit large enough to fit his eye, and then placed the Shisui Sharingan inside.

Naruto closed his right eye and used chakra to connect his optic nerve to it, of course, with the assistance of the related cells.

"Sakura's dual personality prevented her from being completely controlled by Kotoamatsukami."

"Orochimaru devours other people's souls and takes over their bodies. Won't that make Kotoamatsukami less effective than I want?"

Thinking of this, Naruto raised an eyebrow.

To be precise, Orochimaru is indeed quite special, a breath of fresh air in the ninja world.

Anything unexpected could happen to him.

In the story, Itachi used the Totsuka Blade to seal Orochimaru, and then used a little Amaterasu Flame to burn Orochimaru, who had turned into a small white snake and was trying to escape.

Even so, they couldn't completely kill Orochimaru, who returned during the Fourth Shinobi World War.

"Perhaps, there is no way to permanently control Orochimaru."

It is known that a Heavenly Curse Seal is one of Orochimaru's lives, and he can use the Heavenly Curse Seal and meet certain conditions to be resurrected.

If this Orochimaru dies, and another Orochimaru is resurrected, then the control of Kotoamatsukami can be broken.

"My goal is not to control Orochimaru forever."

Cooperating with Orochimaru is not a safe bet.

What if Orochimaru keeps delaying and uses this as an excuse to demand benefits?

What if Orochimaru hardens his heart, breaks the contract with Ryuchi Cave, hides away, and can never be found again?

Therefore, even though Naruto knew that Orochimaru might be able to break Kotoamatsukami, he still used Kotoamatsukami on him.

To be on the safe side, and to retrieve the other half of Nine-Tailed Fox as soon as possible, so as to revive Dad.

It must be so.

I believe that once Orochimaru is freed from Kotoamatsukami and the Reaper Death Seal is released, my goal will have been achieved.

"Rinnegan, Mangekyou Sharingan, you have quite a lot of good stuff," Orochimaru said enviously.

Naruto smiled, controlled Suleiman, pried open Orochimaru's eyelids, and fixed his eyeballs so they wouldn't shift.

Raise your left hand, and activate the Shisui Sharingan temporarily installed in your left palm, turning it into a kaleidoscope.

The remaining power is only enough to use the power of Kotoamatsukami once, and it is consumed like flowing water.

"Absolute obedience to me." This was the will that Naruto instilled.

Hinata, who had retreated to a short distance and witnessed everything, knew why Naruto had done this. She secretly prayed that things would develop in the direction Naruto hoped for.

"Is that all?" Naruto asked, puzzled.

He removed his left palm; only a tiny bit of his eye power remained, and he could no longer use the Shisui Sharingan of Kotoamatsukami.

Take back Mori-chi.

Wait patiently.

With him and Hinata around, there's no fear of Orochimaru escaping.

Orochimaru shook his head vigorously, sometimes frowning, sometimes relaxing, his eyes and expression frequently changing.

“Sakura said she was immediately controlled.” Naruto thought to himself, “It seems that it has a lot to do with the strength of the person’s will, whether they comply or resist.”

Itachi, resurrected through Edo Tensei, was willing and happy to have his will rewritten by Kotoamatsukami in an instant, thus breaking free from Kabuto's control.

Orochimaru, a veteran powerhouse who has been famous for many years, how could he be willing to submit to others?

This is not a superficial, feigned obedience, but a genuine, heartfelt, and absolute obedience.

The confrontation lasted for more than ten minutes.

Orochimaru, drenched in sweat and panting heavily, exclaimed, "What a terrifying eye technique! It can actually rewrite a person's will."

Chapter 156 Sign-in Cooldown Ended

Did Kotoamatsukami succeed or fail?

This question is not easy to answer.

Referring to Sakura's example, Kotoamatsukami's power works in her mind and soul, but only her inner personality is truly controlled.

The fact that the alternate personality is asleep does not affect Sakura.

You could say Sakura was controlled, or you could say she wasn't. Danzo would never have considered this.

Therefore, Naruto would not blindly believe in Kotoamatsukami.

If we can control Orochimaru, that's best; if we can't completely and thoroughly control him, it doesn't matter.

Naruto's request wasn't high; he just wanted the Reaper Death Seal to be released and the other half of Kurama to be retrieved.

Of course, the necessary preventative measures should still be taken.

If Kotoamatsukami works perfectly, these measures can prevent Orochimaru from breaking through it.

“Reveal your true form,” Naruto said.

Orochimaru opened his mouth, and a white snake emerged from it. Its appearance was terrifying and far removed from the word "human".

Naruto reluctantly stepped forward, leaving behind several Flying Thunder God marks.

Furthermore, taking advantage of the fact that Merishite can penetrate the body, he implanted many Flying Thunder God marks inside Orochimaru's body.

With such a dense concentration, unless you die, you absolutely cannot escape, making it convenient for Naruto to appear next to Orochimaru at any time.

"You are not allowed to investigate the Rinnegan," Naruto said.

"You are not allowed to reveal to anyone that you are being controlled—no words, no texts, no codes, nothing at all."

"You are not allowed to try to break free from my control, whether by yourself or through someone else."

"No one other than me is allowed to approach anyone who possesses the Rinnegan."

"You are not allowed to hide anything from me."

Orochimaru's strange face.

After many years, being ordered around should have been met with resentment and rejection, especially from someone as selfish and self-centered as him.

No.

I felt no aversion or rejection whatsoever.

It seemed as if it were a matter of course, as if it was always meant to be this way.

"Absolute obedience?" Orochimaru asked.

"What an amazing eye technique. I am still me, except for this newly arrived will residing in the first position. There are no other changes."

"If the Rinnegan doesn't work, the Mangekyou Sharingan should do, right?"

Both being Mangekyou Sharingan, Naruto's eye power was insufficient to break Kotoamatsukami, so there was no need to worry about it. He nodded and said, "Whatever you want to research is up to you. I won't interfere."

"I want your cells, your chakra, and the Nine-Tails' chakra," Orochimaru said.

"Give me one priority, and we'll talk about the rest later," Naruto said.

"What is it?" Orochimaru asked.

"Break the Reaper Death Seal." Naruto.

"I'm working on that now," Orochimaru said.

“A person’s energy is limited,” Naruto said. “My requirement is that you put everything else aside and devote all your energy to solving this problem.”

Orochimaru.

"Well, this matter can't be rushed; we're missing a lot of crucial information," Orochimaru said.

“If you need anything, I can help you find it.” Naruto said, forming the hand seals for the Summoning Jutsu and activating the Animal Path ability to summon Tobirama, the Second Hokage, who was elsewhere.

"This is it!" Orochimaru's eyes widened in surprise.

Upon seeing the face revealed when the hood was lifted and the mask removed, he was deeply shocked and couldn't help but lean forward to examine it closely.

"This body temperature, this heartbeat, this pulse, and those Rinnegan eyes... unbelievable..."

What secrets does the Rinnegan hold?
