Crossover Anime: Transmigrated as Sasuke, but Must Start from Prince of Tennis

"I have something to do, I'll be going now!"

After being patted on the head, Black Zetsu was stunned for a few seconds before running away.

The speed was so fast that Sasuke suspected he was shy.

He seriously doubted whether Black Zetsu was truly like that, or if he was deliberately putting on an act.

This is an ancient being who has existed for a thousand years, please stop pretending to be a baby. Although you've been looking for your mother since birth, you really aren't suited for this...

"Master, why did Black Zetsu run away? I wanted to ask him if he was in pain from being hit earlier."

Ashura has returned, and behind him is Orochimaru, who has been dragged out.

"I have to go now. What's wrong with Orochimaru? Did he learn to turn his snake tail into legs after getting beaten up?"

Sasuke walked up to Orochimaru and looked at Orochimaru's legs with curiosity. He was quite curious about this attribute of Orochimaru's.

"Transformation isn't difficult; once you're hurt, you instinctively transform."

Ashura kicked Orochimaru's shin dismissively, telling him to stop pretending to be dead on the ground.

This body is a prosthetic; he wouldn't damage the items his master painstakingly created.

"Hehehe..."

Orochimaru stopped pretending to be dead, but the way he looked at Ashura made him want to skin the cat alive.

Is that what you call a painful beating?

He almost beat me to death!

Although he wouldn't mind dying once, since his soul is immortal, that doesn't mean he can accept it...

"You still need to get used to taijutsu and ninjutsu. This is one of our research projects later. Once you're familiar with them, we'll start researching money-making projects."

Sasuke glared at Orochimaru and Ashura, then reached out to Ashura and picked up the cat, placing it on his shoulder.

As for Orochimaru...

He's just a kid; he played a child-rearing game with Black Zetsu, so there's absolutely no way he'd go and comfort Orochimaru.

Moreover, he was certain that Orochimaru's inner strength was far beyond what ordinary people could match.

"Physical techniques and ninjutsu...that's not a problem, but..."

Orochimaru sat on the ground, his expression calming down, and his entire aura became serene.

He was so excited about regaining his own power that he played with the cat for a while.

But now that he's calmed down, he really should think about how to improve himself.

"Sasuke, if I use this body, can I use the Eight Gates Formation at any time?"

Orochimaru suddenly realized that he knew a lot about ninjutsu, but what about taijutsu?

If we're talking about the physical techniques that interest him the most right now, it's still that forbidden Eight Gates Formation.

With all eight gates open, he couldn't help but want that power.

"The cost of materials is very high. Once you're earning enough money to afford the materials, you can make several spare bodies so you can activate the Eight Gates Formation at any time!"

Sasuke stood in front of the stairs at the exit, looking at Orochimaru's smug expression, and felt a little itchy to do the same.

This guy, how much does he want to die? He just got a body that's almost identical to his original one, and he's already thinking about dying?

This personality... it feels so much like my own!

As expected of scientists from the Naruto world, they are actually similar in some ways!

Chapter 273 Wood Release: Building a House

"How about it? The place I chose isn't bad, right next to your previous base. Once I've laid the foundation for the above-ground buildings, I can start digging underground."

Sasuke sat in the tree and talked to Orochimaru next to him about the construction plan.

At this moment, Orochimaru's face was cold and aloof. Although his snake-like eyes still had purple eyeshadow, they no longer gave people a sense of being too sinister.

According to Orochimaru himself, this was a return to his twenty-year-old self, much better than he had expected.

"You can use Wood Release. Wood Release is for building houses. Can't you already use Wood Release?"

Orochimaru leaned against a tree, looked at the open space in front of him, and his words inevitably carried a hint of displeasure.

This underground area is where he often conducts his experiments.

The location where Sasuke built his new laboratory was only a dozen meters away from here.

Even though Sasuke had been preparing to seek cooperation with him, the fact that his own neighborhood had been completely excavated without him knowing anything about it was still very frustrating.

“What you say makes a lot of sense. Then, Mr. Orochimaru, I’ll trouble you to temporarily switch bodies to build houses. These are the core buildings of your future ninja village. What do you think?”

Sasuke found a White Zetsu nearby, allowing Orochimaru to safely perform the body swap.

He wouldn't mind helping Orochimaru pull his soul out after the house was built.

Alternatively, he could have Orochimaru try out the Eight Gates Formation, since Orochimaru hadn't quite given up on it in the past few days.

"You want me to use Wood Release?"

Orochimaru pointed to himself, then looked at the White Zetsu on the ground.

He felt that everything was going too smoothly. Could this be some kind of illusion?

He desires immortality, and now he has a new body that he can replace at any time, although he may need to earn money to buy the materials.

Previously, the experiments had failed many times, and the Wood Release cells could not be transplanted into himself. Now, he can just be given a body to replace them and use them as he pleases?

If he wanted a pair of Sharingan eyes, could he...?

"Forget about it. I'm not giving you the Sharingan. Give up on that idea."

Sasuke saw that Orochimaru was staring straight into his eyes, and the message conveyed in his snake-like eyes was not meant to be concealed at all.

"It's just the Sharingan. Danzo has many more. I'll go find him and take the eyes when I have time. I refuse to believe I can't figure it out!"

Orochimaru turned his head. Now he was basically certain that it wasn't a genjutsu. In that case, he would try out the Wood Release effect in a different body.

As for the Sharingan, his interest in it has never faded. Even if he can't use it himself, he still wants to get a pair to study.

"Stop being awkward. You have legs now, not a snake tail. Change your body and use Wood Release to build a house. I can also learn from you. I've never seen Wood Release before."

Sasuke was quite disgusted by Orochimaru's obviously arrogant state.

But he really wanted to see Wood Release. Even if he could understand some of the distance techniques, it was always good to see more things.

He especially thought it would be very interesting to see Orochimaru using Wood Release.

"You wait!"

Orochimaru snorted twice, twisted unhappily, and his human-bodied, snake-tailed soul left the Gikai and then crawled into the White Zetsu's body.

As White Zetsu gradually began to resemble Orochimaru, and then stood up from the ground again, Sasuke approached and circled around to observe him.

"What are you looking at? Get me some clothes!"

Orochimaru was still trying to adapt to his new body, and now, seeing Sasuke looking him up and down, he felt a little awkward, which was unusual for him.

"Just block it a little bit, we'll have to change it back later anyway."

Sasuke didn't give Orochimaru a set of clothes; instead, he simply tossed him a piece of cloth.

"..."

Orochimaru took the half-meter-wide and over-a-meter-long piece of cloth, looked at it, glared at Sasuke with his snake eyes, and then deftly wrapped it around his waist, putting on a close-fitting short skirt.

"It's just a skirt. My previous body was a woman. She really is still a temperamental child!"

Having put on the short skirt, Orochimaru gave Sasuke a mocking smile, then turned and walked forward.

Wearing women's clothes is such a trivial matter, what's there to be upset about? He's done it with women before, why would he be afraid of this?

"Woman...believe it or not, next time I'll create a female body for you, and I'll make it more alluring..."

Sasuke looked at Orochimaru's nonchalant and even smug state and suddenly felt that he might actually be able to tamper with the artificial body.

Although it's a replica of the soul state, it doesn't mean that some post-processing can't be added.

"Do whatever you want, as long as it works well. Remember to add some enhancements to ninjutsu or taijutsu."

Orochimaru waved his hand dismissively and continued walking forward.

woman?

If he hadn't been so physically weak before, he would have liked to analyze the differences between men and women more thoroughly.

"Let's build a house. I want to see what Wood Release looks like."

Sasuke was utterly speechless.

All he could say was, "As expected of Orochimaru, his thinking is truly unique."

"Wood Release: Four Pillars Family Technique!"

Orochimaru adapted to the body, raised his hands and quickly formed hand seals. Several huge vines emerged from the ground, twisting and turning several times before appearing as a somewhat complex wooden house.

"Not bad, as expected, I can use the Wood Release body. Next up is something even bigger... Wood Release: Linked Pillars Technique!"

Chakra surged forth rapidly, and a row of houses appeared in front of Orochimaru.

The commotion was so great that, although it did not affect the underground laboratory, it alerted everyone inside that something had happened on the surface.

"O-Lord Orochimaru?"

Kimimaro led a group of people out of the tunnel entrance, only to see Orochimaru wearing a short skirt.

Although his skin was excessively pale, that face, those eyes, it was definitely their Lord Orochimaru.

But...

Is Lord Orochimaru male or female now?

When was the new body installed?

Was your body subjected to a fatal attack before?

A series of questions flooded Kimimaro's mind. He hadn't even protected Lord Orochimaru, and he didn't even know what had happened to him...
