impossible.

Although the internal deployment between the various hidden villages is top secret, even the spies sent out by Konoha would find it difficult to obtain key intelligence, but the food procurement situation of each country, the import and manufacture of weapons, and the amount of iron ore consumed are data that are difficult to conceal.

All signs indicate that they have made all preparations for war.

As the saying goes, if the arrow is on the string, it must be fired.

They have prepared for war, so this action will not be in vain.

They should take some action next, but I don’t know what action it will be.

Orochimaru hopes that they will stop targeting Konoha.

But he also knew that this was just unrealistic wishful thinking.

The Fire Nation owns the most fertile land in the world, so it is bound to become the target of public criticism.

In this situation where the dark clouds in the sky have not yet completely dispersed, the top priority is, of course, research on combat effectiveness.

As for the others, they have to step back a little.

Even Luo Cheng's "new food" plan, which will have a profound impact on the world, has to be ranked in the second tier!

As the saying goes, if my neighbor stores grain, I store guns, and my neighbor is my granary.

If we put our energy into researching food and fail to defeat other hidden villages, then all our achievements will be wasted in the service of others!

As for where to start, we can improve our combat effectiveness the fastest.

Orochimaru and Luo Cheng already have ideas about this.

Ever since Luo Cheng "fought to his death" in the final war, joined Konoha in defeating Sand Village, and fought with the three ninjas and the demigod of the ninja world, Hanzo of the Salamander, he has gained more trust from Orochimaru.

Orochimaru, who is still in his youth, has not yet experienced defeat at the hands of Minato Namikaze, missed the position of Hokage, and was beaten by Uchiha Itachi, who is two generations younger than him. Orochimaru, who has not yet tasted so many setbacks, is still relatively young and vigorous.

He has a higher pursuit of knowledge and is not reluctant to share it with others.

On the way back, Orochimaru revealed something about the 'immortal technique' to Luo Cheng!

The magic of Ryuchido is very powerful, but that is not what Orochimaru pursues.

Orochimaru, who has the thinking of a scientist, can see that there is something wrong at the root of the Ryuchidong Senjutsu.

There are two things wrong. The first one is that the magic practiced by the White Snake Immortal of Ryuchi Cave is different from the magic practiced by the three "snake immortals" Hetian Shinshinhime, Ichikishimahime, and Tsujinhime. Orochimaru suspects there is something fishy here!

The second wrong thing is that the magic of Ryuchi Cave is designed for "snakes". Orochimaru doesn't believe that there will be no negative effects if a human practices that kind of thing!

His pursuit of immortality was not as morbid as it became later, and he cherished himself very much, so he was unwilling to practice this thing.

But the power of natural energy is obvious to all, and Orochimaru is unwilling to give up.

So Orochimaru came up with an idea, he wanted to create his own magic!

Create the magic that suits you best!

Orochimaru now has a rough idea of ​​what he is doing, and he calls it the 'Cursed Seal'.

However, this power called the curse is now a defective product. Those who use it can indeed gain extraordinary powers, and will not turn into stone statues like those who fail in practicing immortal arts.

But it has other things, such as...exhaustion and aging.

When the natural energy is absorbed through the seal and the latent power of life is fully stimulated, it is simply unbearable!

Luo Cheng looked at this thing and recalled some past memories.

Isn't this the power that Mizuki, the villain, used when he made his second appearance during the Book of Sealing incident when Naruto first appeared?

This thing is the primary form of the curse seal before Orochimaru met Jūgo...

This thing is a death warrant for ordinary ninjas, but for Luo Cheng, it is very useful.

This technology is the key breakthrough technology that Luo Cheng and Orochimaru have made their primary target and the highest priority.

In terms of power, the strength of the senjutsu, Hashirama Senju was praised for using it.

In terms of potential, this is the power that the ninja world has developed naturally, and it is not constrained by the chakra system that comes from an alien planet. The sacred tree creates chakra by absorbing natural energy. This thing is the source of all extraordinary powers in this world. If we study it, we may find surprises.

What's more, other ninjas may find this way of harnessing the energy in the atmosphere to fight extremely uncomfortable, and may even feel that natural energy is too violent and difficult to tame.

But in Luo Cheng's eyes.

Manipulating the natural energy in the atmosphere is not much different from manipulating the Originium energy in the atmosphere of the Terra world.

As for the violent nature of energy...

Is this thing considered violent?

Is there a cosmic force that can crush a strong man who has pushed the Source Tooth to 100% into rainbow light?

As for complexity, are you sure you want to compare it with the Three Realms Law that most Terrans with 72 times the brain power cannot learn?

This is a path that is naturally suited to me.

On this path, Luo Cheng can be said to have more experience than anyone else in this world.

Even if the three immortals from the three holy places came together, they are not worthy of carrying his shoes!

After finalizing the priority of the experiments, Luo Cheng began to discuss the division of interests with Orochimaru.

In the eyes of outsiders, Luo Cheng and Orochimaru are a master-disciple relationship that is just one step away from success.

But in fact, the relationship between the two is not like this at all!

There is no superior-subordinate relationship between Luo Cheng and Orochimaru. After the end of the Rain Country War, Orochimaru realized that he might not be able to control Luo Cheng, and the relationship between the two sides has turned into cooperation.

Since it is a cooperation, brothers must settle accounts clearly.

Orochimaru provided the research funds and equipment.

Luo Cheng invested in the company with his scientific research capabilities.

How to distribute the results of win-win cooperation between the two parties is a serious matter.

Orochimaru is a man who does big things without paying attention to small details.

As for Luo Cheng, his work style can also be seen from what he did when he founded the Dawn Company.

The two cheerful people were together, without any of the petty haggling that businessmen often do, and they divided the cake very quickly.

For Orochimaru, as long as he can gain power and immortality, nothing else matters.

For Luo Cheng, his biggest goal is to improve his strength as quickly as possible to the point where he will not be afraid of the Otsutsuki clan. Money and fame are all like clouds and are not worth caring about.

And power, as a by-product of research, does not come in only one form.

As for money, Luo Cheng immediately stated that he would invest all the profits gained from the research results into the laboratory as joint research funds!

The two looked at each other, and Orochimaru showed a rare look of discovering a kindred spirit. Then, Orochimaru said, "Okay, all the profits I gain from my research will be used as joint research funds and invested in our subsequent research!"

In this world, science is the only thing that Orochimaru is truly obsessed with. It is really rare to meet another talented person who is willing to devote himself to science on the road of scientific research, and to be able to cooperate with him!

Could it be that after losing so much, good things have finally come...

It is better to choose a day than to hit it.

After planning everything, the two couldn't wait to start research on natural energy.

The shadow of war still looms over the ninja world, and there is not much time to waste.

The stronger you become now, the less blood you will lose in the future.

Orochimaru dug out the information about the research on the curse seal at that time.

In the eyes of others, it was an unparalleled honor for Luo Cheng to be able to fight against the demigod of the ninja world, Hanzo of the Salamander, as a lower-level ninja and still come back safe and sound.

But Luo Cheng didn't think that was the case at all.

As for Hanzo's physical skills, other ninjas thought they were incredibly powerful, but to Luo Cheng, who was known as a "God" in another world, they were full of mistakes and omissions.

However, due to his weak strength at the time, even if he saw the flaw, he couldn't catch it.

Salamander Hanzo was disgusted to death by Luo Cheng, and he also felt disgusted by the way Luo Cheng fought in that battle!

That feeling is like watching the Chinese national football team play.

"Fuck, you can lose this game?"

"Flaw! Flaw! Why don't you kick such a big flaw? Ouch!"

Watching the battle between the Sannin and Hanzo made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

He didn't want to have that bad experience again!

After viewing the detailed experimental data that Orochimaru had collected in Konoha, Luo Cheng nodded and spoke.

"Let's start all over again."

"Ah?" Orochimaru was a little confused.

"Your experiment has problems from the very basic idea, or in other words, it is inconsistent with the goal I want to achieve by using natural energy. I suggest you study natural energy from the beginning." Luo Cheng said.

Chapter 12 Coupling Daozu and Chakra Daozu

Luo Cheng chose not to continue Orochimaru's research and development of the curse seal, but to start all over again. It was not a sudden whim.

But the decision was made on the way back when Orochimaru and Luo Cheng talked about the curse seal.

The reason why I didn't say it at that time was that, firstly, my identity was not yet stable, and secondly, the timing was not right.

Now that he had obtained a complete set of information from Orochimaru on the research on the curse seal and had determined the characteristics of natural energy, which were almost the same as his own speculations, Luo Cheng expressed his thoughts!

"It doesn't match your ultimate goal... So what do you want to do with natural energy?" Orochimaru felt puzzled.

In Orochimaru's opinion, cursed seals are an excellent direction for natural energy research, so there shouldn't be any problem with them.

In the ninja world, people who can absorb natural energy and use it are called "sages".

Natural energy and their chakras merged with each other and mixed into a more advanced "Senjutsu Chakra". This kind of Senjutsu Chakra can not only greatly enhance the physical fitness of the immortals, but also greatly increase the power of ninjutsu.

The curse seal is working towards this direction, and the ultimate goal in the future is to be able to obtain fairy chakra once the curse seal is opened without any refinement.

It solves the fatal obstacle of traditional immortal arts that they are slow to get started. At the same time, it allows different people to gain different tendencies in the immortal mode, making it more suitable for them.

Anyway, Orochimaru didn't notice anything wrong.

But in Luo Cheng's eyes, the curse has a fatal problem.

That is...it requires chakra!

Orochimaru, a native ninja, has practiced chakra all his life, but his understanding of this thing is still limited.

But Luo Cheng, who came from another world, knows too well what chakra is!

They are a race from deep space, the product of the sacred tree that the Otsutsuki clan uses to harvest the universe!

For ordinary people, even if they know this, most of them will not care about it.

As the saying goes, if I don’t have guns or cannons, the enemy will build them for me!

Even if it is the enemy's power, isn't it enough as long as I can use it?

We are enemies of the same origin, it's not a big problem.

But in Luo Cheng's opinion, the problem here is huge!

Chakra is not a naturally existing power system. It is not born naturally like martial arts, human vitality, and natural energy. It is a power system designed artificially!

Does it feel familiar?

Just be familiar with it!

The coupling system is a force that did not exist originally, but was artificially created by Luo Cheng later!

And Luo Cheng, the Taoist master of coupling, knows very well what kind of interference power he has on the coupling system!

Even in the deep space of the universe, the ancestor of Chakra did not have the ability of reproduction, so his interference with the entire system was not that serious. Luo Cheng also did not believe that he had no countermeasures against the system he created!

On the bright side, I can grow up before the main force of the Otsutsuki clan arrives in the Ninja World.

But what if we don’t grow up?

Use the chakra system to fight Otsutsuki?

This is just like practicing the coupling system to fight Luo Cheng, ridiculous!

I'm afraid he will be killed on sight!
