"Uh... a strange penguin."

Chapter 234 Kaleidoscope Wholesale

Time flies by, and a day has passed in the blink of an eye since the Chunin Exams ended.

"Take me to Orochimaru."

Sasuke's figure appeared silently in front of a dark cave.

He casually picked up a small white snake from the roadside and whispered the command.

The little white snake gently flicked its tongue, as if it understood human speech, and landed lightly before beginning to meander forward.

Sasuke stepped into the darkness, traveling with the small snake through the winding cave.

A dozen minutes later, a tall figure came into view.

That was Orochimaru.

At this moment, he was busy at the lab table, with a dim light hanging above him being the only source of light in the entire space.

"Welcome, Sasuke-kun."

Orochimaru put down his work and turned around to greet him with a beaming smile.

"What are you up to? I can vaguely sense the presence of the Nine-Tails."

Sasuke stepped forward and curiously looked around at everything at the experimental table.

Orochimaru didn't hide it; instead, he held up a small test tube filled with crimson liquid and showed it to Sasuke.

"This is a sample of the Nine-Tails' flesh and blood. I secretly collected it during your battle yesterday."

"Capturing the complete Nine-Tails is probably unrealistic, but I can try to raise one. After all, the Nine-Tails has an extremely powerful self-repairing ability."

"Give me enough time, and I can create a 'half-finished' Nine-Tails that lacks independent consciousness but can be used as a chakra supply tool."

Since learning the secret that gathering all the tailed beasts would revive the Ten-Tails and make it the Six Paths, Orochimaru has focused his attention on this goal and has been working towards it ever since.

Clearly, unlike directly hunting those legendary creatures, this scientist took a different approach and chose to be self-sufficient.

"That's a really smart move!" Sasuke suddenly smiled faintly.

Looking at Orochimaru, who remained calm and composed, he couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration.

Although he himself proposed this theoretical framework in the first place.

But deep down, he always felt that the chances of achieving his goal in this way were almost zero.

Unexpectedly, such a possibility actually exists...

"Those who conduct scientific research are indeed not to be underestimated," Sasuke thought to himself, secretly full of admiration.

"Speaking of which, Sasuke-kun, what brings you here today?" Orochimaru asked in his characteristically deep voice, interrupting Sasuke's brief daze.

The other person nodded and then slightly parted their lips.

"Hmm... about the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan that I mentioned last time..."

Orochimaru's eyes lit up instantly. He knew this moment had finally arrived: Sasuke had brought his treasure to his door!

He immediately called out enthusiastically, "Sasuke-kun..."

“I saw your performance in the Forest of Death; it was nothing short of miraculous.”

He exclaimed loudly.

"The earth-shattering power you unleashed seems to be called 'Susanoo,' right?"

"Unbelievable! The kaleidoscope possesses such astonishing abilities!"

"Naruto is extraordinary, and the two of you are simply beyond common sense, completely unlike ordinary ninjas."

A hint of admiration was evident in his words.

Sasuke gave a cryptic smile: "So, do you prefer the pursuit of supreme power or the desire for immortality?"

"Of course, it's the latter," Orochimaru replied without hesitation.

Sasuke chuckled lightly: "Alright, let's get started."

As he spoke, he decisively reached out and pressed his hand against his eyes.

He then let out a heavy groan, and immediately his eyes were forcibly gouged out.

Upon seeing this, Orochimaru immediately took out a special container from the side and carefully caught the invaluable Mangekyou Sharingan.

Bright red blood mixed with glistening tears slowly slid down Sasuke's cheeks, but quickly stopped on its own.

Faced with this situation, he turned to Orochimaru, who was busy conducting research nearby, and asked:

"Approximately how long will it take?"

After receiving this rare treasure, Orochimaru immediately buried himself in the experimental table and became engrossed in his work:

"The exact duration is hard to determine at the moment, but it should be completed in as little as three days."

"Three days... that's not too bad."

Sasuke nodded.

Having a Sage Body allows one to restore their eye power. If they never activate Susanoo in their lifetime and only use Amaterasu and Kagutsuchi, their eyesight will not decline even if they use them for a lifetime, because these eye techniques consume less energy and recover quickly.

However, Susanoo is completely different. Each use requires several times the eye power of eye techniques such as Amaterasu. Especially when it is fully formed, it consumes dozens of times more power. Even with a Sage Body, it cannot keep up with such a huge consumption.

Especially after his last use of the Ultimate form, his eyesight has begun to decline, making it imperative for him to evolve into the Eternal Eye.

Sasuke, who was closing his eyes, suddenly uttered a question.

"What's wrong, Sasuke-kun?"

"I feel... my eye sockets are a little itchy."

Sasuke looked slightly confused.

At that moment, a warm feeling was enveloping his eyes, but he didn't understand what it was.

"Could it be because of an infection? Let me get checked."

Orochimaru walked up to Sasuke, cupped his face, and examined him closely. "The way you gouged out your eyes with your hands was too rough. There are too many bacteria on your hands. Remember to use sterilized professional tools next time."

He gently pried open Sasuke's eyelids, and what he saw next stunned even the well-informed Orochimaru.

Within Sasuke's eye sockets, a lively eye was gazing at him.

Orochimaru: "..."

Sasuke: "..."

The two looked at each other, speechless for a moment.

What on earth happened? Sasuke's eyeball was just removed...

Sasuke also looked completely bewildered.

After a moment, he tentatively spoke:

"Could it be because I possess a celestial body?"

"The immortal body possesses the ability to heal injuries without hand seals, so after losing an eyeball, a new pair of eyes grew?"

After stroking his chin and thinking for a while, Orochimaru nodded and said:

"If it's a physique similar to that of Hashirama Senju, then it's indeed possible to explain it."

"So how do you solve your current situation? Can your kaleidoscope be put back in its place?"

As he spoke, Orochimaru cast an inquiring glance toward the lab table, where the Mangekyou Sharingan he had just removed lay.

"Wait a moment……"

“I suddenly have a special idea.”

Suddenly, Sasuke interrupted in a strange tone.

What idea have you come up with?

Driven by curiosity, Orochimaru asked.

Give me some time.

Then, Sasuke slowly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and seemed to be concentrating his mind in preparation for the attempt.

Those unbearable past experiences surfaced in my mind one by one.

During this process, Sasuke blocked out all irrelevant memories and focused intently on the pain he had suffered for a full minute.

Within just sixty seconds, the intense emotional fluctuations caused Sasuke's body to tremble slightly.

Of all the weapons in the world, the one that wounds the most is the one that has been used.

When this difficult time finally ended, Sasuke returned to a calm state.

A dazzling scarlet light burst forth from his wide-open eyes.

Kaleidoscope Sharingan!

In just one minute, Sasuke transformed his newly grown ordinary eyes back into Mangekyou Sharingan level!

"They actually did it!"

His slightly breathless tone couldn't hide his excitement.

Orochimaru: "O.0."

"So now I have another pair of kaleidoscopes?"

He could hardly believe his eyes.

"Don't just stand there, hurry up and take it off."

Unable to contain his excitement, Sasuke urged eagerly.

His face beamed with an undisguised smile:

"Since two pairs of kaleidoscopes can be combined to form a pair of eternal eyes, what would happen if we kept doing this?"
