Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swordsmen Begins from the Hidden Cloud Village.

He could even see that there were Flying Thunder God techniques on those bottles. If he really wanted to take them away, he was afraid that Uchiha Hikaru would kill him instantly.

Without delay, he carefully studied the sealing technique and the perception barrier, and then set about breaking it.

The method of breaking the bottle was rough but fast. It was soon broken, and then the bottle was opened and the two eyeballs inside were sucked into the snake's mouth.

The next moment a figure suddenly appeared outside the freezer. It was Uchiha Hikaru.

At the same time, the little white snake that got the eyes turned into a ball of mist and disappeared, being taken away by the spirit.

“How pathetic!”

With a pitying sneer, Uchiha Hikaru flashed away.

She was just asked by that shameless villain to cooperate and show her face, and she didn't need to do anything more.

However, Orochimaru was still sensible in his actions and did not kill anyone. It was obvious that he did not want to offend the Hidden Cloud Village.

On the other side, Orochimaru had no idea that he had been tricked. He was looking at the two eyes in his hands with joy, and then carefully placed them in the nutrient solution prepared in advance for preservation. He would transplant them when the body grew to a certain size.

After sealing his eyes, Orochimaru turned and walked out to another room, where Uchiha Fugaku was sitting, adapting to the newly transplanted three-magatama Sharingan on his right arm.

During the half-year battle, he used Izanagi several times and consumed several three-magatama Sharingan on his arms.

Originally, the power of the Sharingan on the arm was balanced with the first generation cells, but the loss of several three-magatama Sharingan has caused the two to become unbalanced.

In the past, he could use his own kaleidoscope power to suppress and maintain balance, but now that he has lost the kaleidoscope, the first-generation cells in his arms have become increasingly unstable.

This time, Orochimaru performed surgery to replace it, allowing the arm to regain balance again.

"Fugaku-kun's integration of this arm is much better than I expected. Even the Sharingan is more compatible with the cells of the First Generation."

Looking at Uchiha Fugaku's right arm, Orochimaru licked his lips.

When Uchiha Fugaku's arm was transplanted with a new Sharingan, it was discovered that the first-generation cells inside had actually fused with the Sharingan.

Obviously, his research direction was correct. Uchiha and Senju had the same ancestor, the legendary Six Paths Sage.

However, the reason Uchiha Fugaku could show signs of fusion between the two was most likely because of the Seven-Tails in his body.

As expected, the tailed beasts also have a close relationship with the Six Paths Sage.

"It's just the power of the kaleidoscope."

Uchiha Fugaku replied casually, attributing the source to the Mangekyō Sharingan, and did not mention that it was due to the Seven-Tails' Chakra.

“When will my eyes be fully developed?”

When asking about the cultivation of new eyes, he still had a bit of the power of the Kaleidoscope. If he could have a pair of eyes of his own, he would definitely be able to open them, at least one with one magatama would not be a problem.

His own Sharingan is the most perfect. Even though he is also a member of the Uchiha clan, the pair of three-magatama Sharingan transplanted in his eye sockets cannot be used smoothly. He really wants to have his own eyes.

The pair that were poached by the Hidden Cloud Village probably can’t be brought back, so now we can only follow Orochimaru’s path.

"It's already being cultivated, and it will take about half a year to really take shape."

Orochimaru gave a time limit. His method was to cultivate a clone of Uchiha Fugaku, and then transplant the eyes onto Uchiha Fugaku, which would definitely be a perfect fit.

And the clone of Uchiha Fugaku can be used for other experiments and will not be wasted.

"How do I achieve true Sage Mode?"

Uchiha Fugaku then asked about the practice of Sage Mode. Although he had inherited the Sage Arts and had the Sage Arts Curse Seal, he had never been able to cultivate into Sage Mode.

Otherwise, if he had been in Sage Mode before, he wouldn't be so passive.

"Changing the medium will require more chakra, but it would be fine if you could perfectly integrate the chakra of the Seven-Tails into your own body. I might be able to help you achieve this in my experiments."

Orochimaru provided a solution. He knew that Uchiha Fugaku had a fairy curse seal on his body, and that it was made from the flesh and blood of ten thousand snakes.

But the level of Wanshe is still too low, and it needs a higher level medium to cultivate into the sage mode.

"You have?"

There was a more solemn look on his face. Uchiha Fugaku was eager in his heart, but also very vigilant.

This person is not a good person. Will he be the medium for me to enter the Sage Mode?

"I can give Fugaku-kun a portion of senjutsu power as a medium for practicing the sage mode, but I need Fugaku-kun to assist me in doing some small experiments."

Licking his lips, Orochimaru attached great importance to the experimental material in front of him. Many of his previous conjectures needed to be judged by this material.

"can."

After staring at Orochimaru for a long time, Uchiha Fugaku finally agreed.

He had no other choice but to try every possible means to gain powerful strength so that he would have a chance to turn the tables.

"Snake-kun, do you know the Tamura Hao from the Hidden Cloud Village?"

Turning the topic to the young man, Uchiha Fugaku didn't understand the power he displayed. He was growing too fast.

Especially the strength he showed at the end that night, he felt that even if he unleashed the Seven-Tails Chakra and Susanoo, he would not be able to stop the opponent's attack.

The growth rate and height reached are incredible. The other party must have a big secret, but he can't see it for the time being.

If I could get the other party's secret, I would definitely become strong quickly.

"I saw him fight during the Chunin Exam. He is an outstanding young man."

Orochimaru gave a very good evaluation. Although the other party's achievements were mostly dependent on the special Samehada, they were also inseparable from his own efforts.

The potential of Samehada is amazing. In some ways, he is even stronger than the tailed beasts. If he didn't have bigger goals, he might have been jealous of him.

"What kind of illusion did he use that night? Even your Kaleidoscope couldn't break through it in the first place."

He had actually been there a long time ago and watched the entire battle secretly. He also saw how Uchiha Fugaku and others were controlled and had their eyes gouged out.

But he didn't understand what kind of illusion could control seven pairs of kaleidoscopes at the same time. It was truly incredible.

"It should be the Tsukuyomi eye technique. He has the ability to take eye techniques from others. According to records, Uchiha Hikaru possesses the Tsukuyomi eye technique. He used it on us and on multiple people at once. There's something wrong with that knife, too. It might be a special medium.

The most terrifying thing is that his pupil power is greater than the pupil power of the seven of us combined, which is very abnormal."

Uchiha Fugaku couldn't understand this. He knew about the Tsukuyomi technique and there were relevant records in the clan's books.

The Uchiha family's Mangekyō eye techniques are varied and bizarre. Every Mangekyō owner will record the effects and development methods of the eye techniques when their eyes are disabled or before they die. Over the years, they have recorded a lot of things, including the Tsukuyomi eye technique.

However, the opponent's Tsukuyomi eye technique was too strange. It did not have that kind of strong control ability, but it could be used on multiple people. Coupled with the abnormally strong eye power, they were unable to break through for a while.

At the same time, Uchiha Guang cooperated in digging out their eyes, giving them no chance to fight back.

The key point of that battle was their several pairs of Mangekyō Sharingan. They were all taken down in the first place. All the tactics became a joke and defeat was inevitable.

"Is the pupil power strong?"

Orochimaru understood and roughly guessed what was going on.

Haojun's Samehada can devour the corpses of strong people and gain some of their abilities. It must have devoured the corpse of the Uchiha ninja, and then gained the power of the Sharingan and even the Mangekyō.

And it definitely swallowed a lot, plus with the support of the Hidden Cloud Village, god knows how many Sharingan it swallowed, so it is normal for its pupil power to be strong.

"It was obvious that our battle plan was leaked in the previous battle, and Snake King appeared there again. Is this a coincidence?"

His expression changed and Uchiha Fugaku questioned coldly.

He was not a fool, so he naturally saw that the Hidden Cloud Village was plotting against them, and their scheme was even more profound, which led to their defeat.

Otherwise, with seven pairs of Mangekyō, plus Uchiha Jiri's Izanami forbidden technique, even the Third Raikage and his men would be confident that they could defeat them and there would be no way they would lose.

“I don’t know if it was done by the teacher or Shimura Danzo. I went there because the White Snake Immortal asked me to. She wanted to take the opportunity to severely damage the Cloud Ninjas and take back the Summoning World that was taken away by the Hidden Cloud Village. I just collected some experimental materials along the way.

But I can tell you that the mysterious man who took away Uchiha Naka's eyes was the one who performed the Impure World Reincarnation, a forbidden technique that can summon the souls of the dead from the netherworld and temporarily revive them, and give them some of their previous strength in life.

Currently, the only ones who can perform Impure World Reincarnation are me, Danzo Shimura, and Sensei. There should be someone in the Senju area who can perform it as well."

Orochimaru seemed very honest. He still needed Uchiha Fugaku to actively cooperate with some research, so he naturally would not let this volunteer feel resentful.

"Reincarnation from the dirty soil!"

Uchiha Fugaku's face darkened. If it was true as Orochimaru said, this forbidden technique would be too terrifying.

"Naka's eye technique is Amaterasu and Kagutsuchi, which are not suitable for the fighting style of Shimura Danzo and the Senju clan. In this case, it was Sarutobi Hiruzen who took away Naka's eyes."

He quickly made an analysis. Although he was still controlled by the illusion at that time, he later saw the scene from the memory of a tribe member. The other party was specifically going for Naka and was obviously staring at Naka's eyes.

Based on this, it is easy to make a judgment that it must be that old guy Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Orochimaru smiled but said nothing. He had the same guess and even had some guesses about the person who was resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation.

With the current progress of the Impure World Reincarnation, it is impossible to control the deceased at the Kage level, unless the other party is willing. Obviously, that person is someone the teacher can trust and who can completely trust the teacher. Coupled with the Kage-level chakra, it is easy to guess who it is.

"Snake-kun doesn't seem to be very enthusiastic about the position of Hokage."

Uchiha Fugaku suddenly asked. He had communicated with Orochimaru before and found that this guy didn't seem to take the list of Hokage candidates released by Sarutobi Hiruzen seriously.

“I’m not pursuing power, and there is no conflict between me and Fugaku-kun. We should be able to have more cooperation in the future.

And it seems that Fugaku-kun has been kicked out."

Orochimaru still seemed very honest, making Uchiha Fugaku unable to judge the truth of his words for a moment.

"I'm going to go to the Senju place. Snake-kun, do you want to go?"

He couldn't swallow this humiliation and he would never let that old guy Sarutobi Hiruzen have an easy time.

After this failure, he agreed more and more with what Hao Jun said at the beginning. When it comes to conspiracy and scheming, they, the Uchiha clan, are no match for Sarutobi Hiruzen and others, and the Senju clan is probably about the same.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is their biggest enemy

"I want to go meet Tsunade as well, but I won't be going the same way as Fugaku-kun. I still need to maintain the lab over there at Shimura Danzo."

Orochimaru was silent about this question, and finally decided to go over and take a look.

After all, Sheng Shu was his student, and he should have gone to see him when he was murdered.

Uchiha Fugaku didn't hesitate, put on his clothes and walked out.

He now urgently needs to meet the leader of the Senju clan to discuss the next steps against Sarutobi Hiruzen and others.

The complete collapse of the battle line seems to have eliminated him, but as long as he has absolute strength, he can still forcibly compete for the position of Hokage.

However, this point cannot be revealed. The secret between the tailed beast's chakra, the first generation's cells and the Sharingan is his trump card for turning the tables.

Orochimaru did not stay here for long. After a simple tidying up, he went to the Land of Grass and used a snake to lure Tsunade out.

He knew that the Senju clan would definitely hate him as well. Now in the eyes of those people, he and Shimura Danzo were one and the same. Nawaki's death was closely related to Shimura Danzo, at least the old guy must have been involved.

If I really enter the camp, I will definitely be targeted and there might even be a fight. Luring Tsunade out is the best option.

"What are you here for?"

Looking at the figure with long black hair in front of her, Tsunade asked coldly.

"I should have come sooner."

Turning around and looking at the coldness on his former teammate's face, Orochimaru felt uncomfortable.

"If you have something to say, just say it. I'm busy and don't have time to talk nonsense with you."

Tsunade said impatiently.

"It wasn't Shimura Danzo who was trying to murder Nawaki, at least he hasn't done it directly yet."

By revealing a piece of information, Orochimaru was able to confirm that Danzo Shimura did not kill Nawaki, at least the bombing of Nawaki was not arranged by Danzo Shimura.

These words made Tsunade's face look even colder. Since it wasn't Danzo Shimura, then it could only be the teacher.

What a good teacher!

"Thank you!"

After saying thank you, Tsunade turned and left.

"I can't go back to the way it was before!"

Watching his companions go away, Orochimaru knew that the bond of friendship with Tsunade was a thing of the past.

The same must have been true for that idiot Jiraiya, and the three of them eventually separated.

"Teacher, is this the result you want?"

Thinking of that teacher, Orochimaru felt that the teacher-student relationship with that teacher was a joke and that in the end he was still just a tool.

As early as when he came into contact with those cruel studies, he knew that there was no turning back, and that he might be abandoned by his teacher at any time, or even become a traitor.

As a member of the Senju family, Tsunade had already been marked as a cross in the teacher's mind.

Even if he doesn't perish along with the Senju clan in the future, he will never return to the village.
