Konoha: From the moment I was adopted by Tsunade

Chapter 89 A New Round of Transactions

Natsume wanted to exchange Fate Points for the Flying Thunder God Technique directly because he didn't meet the training requirements.

As a forbidden technique of great strategic significance, Konoha Village maintains extremely strict control over the Flying Thunder God Technique.

First, one must make a great contribution.

Secondly, it is loyalty to the Hokage.

Finally, one's own talent.

Leaving aside the first two, let's talk about the final talent or condition.

This is the most troublesome part.

Otherwise, it's impossible that only two people know the Flying Thunder God Technique.

There are roughly four conditions.

First, a massive amount of chakra.

Second, they possess a talent for spacetime.

Third, exceptional dynamic vision and responsiveness.

Fourth, powerful perception capabilities.

Xia currently meets two of the conditions, but there's no way to meet the third and fourth conditions.

He felt he could give it a try after he had fully mastered the Mangekyou Sharingan and Sage Mode.

If they try to find Tsunade, Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others will easily find out.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, it would be better to go find Orochimaru.

This is, in fact, the first time Natsume has used his true form.

The reason we were so cautious before was simply because we lacked the strength.

Natsume stood at the doorway, feeling numerous gazes that his wooden clone could not perceive.

It came from a group of snakes.

He believed that news of his arrival had already reached Orochimaru.

Natsume walked into the hall, casually found a seat, and sat down as if he were back home.

He had just picked up the teapot when Orochimaru appeared in front of him.

soon.

"After all these years, why do you still have that same cold demeanor?"

Natsume glanced at him, and seeing the turbulent emotions in his eyes, asked with a smile, "Are you planning to kill him?"

Orochimaru did not answer.

He could tell at a glance that Natsume was not a wooden clone this time.

His snake instincts made him sense a hint of danger.

In an instant, he began to consider whether he could take him down if he made a move.

After so many years of research, he has transplanted Hashirama cells and developed his own cursed seal.

Not to mention the Reanimation Jutsu, Orochi Technique, and Impure World Reincarnation.

But considering Natsume's terrifying Wood Release technique and the Mangekyou Sharingan, the odds of winning might not be that high.

Try it and you'll die.

Orochimaru suppressed his various thoughts and asked in an icy tone, "Is your organization best at stealing from your allies?"

"Look at what you're saying."

Natsume pointed to his eyes and said, "Call it, and if it answers, I'll give them back to you."

"..."

Orochimaru was speechless.

What he really meant was that if Natsume hadn't appeared, Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan would have inevitably fallen into his hands.

But since things have come to this point, there's no point in saying anything more.

If he were Natsume, he would have taken it too.

What kind of transaction is happening today?

Orochimaru got back to the main topic.

He had many questions waiting for Natsume to answer.

Even if we have to fall out, that's something for next time.

"I want the Flying Thunder God Technique."

Natsume was very satisfied with Orochimaru's pragmatism.

The correct description should be a personality that disregards everything for the sake of science.

He could endure it as long as Natsume was still useful.

Flying Thunder God Technique?

Orochimaru was somewhat surprised, yet felt it was only natural.

This technique is indeed incredibly powerful.

They can fight and run.

Minato Namikaze is known as the Yellow Flash, and his brilliant achievements are undoubtedly due to the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Orochimaru tried to learn it, but he couldn't, so he had to give up.

"The Flying Thunder God Technique is not an ordinary ninjutsu. Even if I wanted to teach it to someone else, I would have to get the old man's approval."

He licked his lips, almost saying, "I need to pay more."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's approval was true, but if Orochimaru really wanted to teach someone in private, who would know?

"Ask me any questions you have. I'll give you a fair reward."

Natsume understood his unspoken meaning and waved his hand magnanimously.

"Why is your Wood Release technique so much more powerful than the Wood Release technique after transplanting Hashirama's cells?"

Orochimaru didn't stand on ceremony and asked a question.

"You should have understood this a long time ago."

Natsume countered, "Do you remember the two key things I told you about becoming the Sage of Six Paths?"

"Immortal Body".

Orochimaru nodded silently; he did indeed have some suspicions.

But speculation is still speculation; only now can we be certain.

This also provided him with a direction for his next research project.

Continuously raise the limits of your physical potential.

Ideally, one should learn Sage Mode.

In other words, the cursed seal still needs to be modified.

In fact, for Orochimaru, this answer was comparable to the Flying Thunder God Technique.

But he still tentatively asked a second question: "How do I awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

Clearly, having failed to obtain Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan, he has set his sights on the next Uchiha clan member.

"You'll need to pay more. Once you get the method, you might be able to create quite a few Mangekyou Sharingan."

Natsume raised his teacup, smiling, and said, "One Flying Thunder God Technique isn't enough, is it?"

That being said, the possibility is extremely small.

If the Mangekyou Sharingan were so easy to obtain, someone might have already been raising the Uchiha clan in captivity.

For example, Madara Uchiha or Obito Uchiha.

A closer look at the Uchiha clan ninjas who awakened their Sharingan reveals that they were all top-tier geniuses.

Even if we actually manage to make it, we'll just seize it.

Natsume should thank him.

Moreover, given Orochimaru's personality, he would definitely give it a try.

When he targets those famous geniuses, it will be to help him gain destiny points.

"What else do you want?"

Orochimaru glanced at Natsume and emphasized, "The Scroll of Seals contains many forbidden techniques."

Thankfully, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't hear that.

Otherwise, he would get so angry that he would have a heart attack.

After learning about the Mangekyou Sharingan, Orochimaru consulted the records left behind by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, and learned many secrets.

However, the instructions on how to start it were not specific enough.

Moreover, he didn't know who had the talent.

Natsume touched his chin.

The Book of Seals does indeed contain many forbidden techniques.

But most of them come at a great cost.

For example, the Corpse Demon Sealing Technique.

As for those relatively normal ninjutsu, Natsume could easily read them through Tsunade.

"I don't want the forbidden techniques from the Book of Seals."

Natsume shook his head and said, "I want your cursed seal and the improved Impure World Reincarnation."

Actually, it's not very useful to him.

However, the Impure World Reincarnation technique is indeed disgusting, so it's best not to miss out if you can get your hands on it.

And he also had a little idea.

The curse seal can be used on subordinates with mediocre talents.

Of course, he wouldn't divide his soul for no reason.

Orochimaru did this purely because he was afraid of dying and wanted to control the person he was using his magic on.

"That's not fair."

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly and said.

If it were anyone else, he wouldn't even bother to say another word and would just send them to see the Sage of Six Paths.

The cursed seal and the Impure World Reincarnation technique were the result of his research over several years, and he couldn't possibly give them away for nothing.

It will cost more.

"I can tell you the location of the mysterious person with the Mangekyou Sharingan who appeared during the Nine-Tails' rampage."

Natsume was referring to Obito Uchiha.

But he wouldn't say that he's currently in Kirigakure.

In fact, this is another typical example of information asymmetry.

Orochimaru has never given up and is secretly spying on Itachi Uchiha, so he will most likely encounter Obito Uchiha.

Natsume had simply given prior notice.

Orochimaru's eyes lit up, and a sinister smile crept across his face.

This news is actually quite good.
