The Hyuga clan that started in Konoha

In the end, Cang Si still prefers the second option.

The road to awakening the Samsara Eye is already a long one, and this kind of thing cannot be rushed.

After making plans to awaken the Samsara Eye in the future, the first thing Soji had to do was not to collect the blood of the Hyuga clan, but to find Orochimaru.

As the number one person in technological research and development in the entire ninja world, who else should he go to if not Orochimaru to trade genetic and cellular research data.

Only after obtaining information on this aspect can we start research, otherwise it will be useless to give the blood of the Otsutsuki clan to Soji.

With this idea in mind, Cang Si visited Orochimaru's house the next day.

Unfortunately, it was all in vain.

In the next few days, Cang Si went to Orochimaru's house every day, but he never met Orochimaru himself.

I guess Orochimaru probably doesn't know in which secret research institute he built he was doing scientific research.

It is said that a cunning rabbit has three burrows, but according to Cang Si, Orochimaru may have no less than ten burrows.

Cang Si did not give up and still visited Orochimaru's house every day.

On this day, Cang Si was preparing to go to Orochimaru's house as usual, when suddenly a "hissing" sound was heard in the room.

Looking towards the corner of the room, I saw a small snake sticking out its tongue and looking at Cang Si.

If this scene happened in his previous life, Cang Si would probably have his hair stand on end instantly, but in the ninja world where there are extraordinary powers, everything seems very normal.

If nothing unexpected happens, my actions in the past few days should have attracted Orochimaru's attention.

Sure enough, the little snake then spit out a scroll from its mouth, put it on the ground, and then with a "bang" it turned into a puff of white smoke.

"Spiritual communication is really convenient." Cang Si looked at the disappearing little snake and said with a hint of envy in his tone.

Whether it was the summoning frogs summoned by Jiraiya and Minato, or the summoning snakes summoned by Orochimaru, Souji had seen them all.

If given the chance, Cang Si would not give up on finding a suitable summoning beast for himself.

Then Cang Si suppressed his nausea and wiped the scroll that was stained with snake saliva first, then slowly opened it to read the contents.

Many people would do this if they have nothing else to do. There is no need to ruin your hands.

The content on the scroll was very simple, just a map and a sentence.

"Cang Si-kun, I'll wait for you at the location on the map."

Nothing else was mentioned, nor was Cang Si's purpose asked.

After making sure that there was no other missing information, Cang Si went out directly.

And the direction is exactly the location of Konoha's Death Forest.

Arriving at the eerie entrance to the Death Forest, Cang Si found a place to climb in without much hesitation.

Cang Si and his friends had been to this Death Forest once before, and this time can be said to be their second time.

It is said that this entire Death Forest was created by the first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, using Wood Release Ninjutsu.

The diameter of the entire Death Forest reaches 10 kilometers. This shows how powerful the First Hokage was who was able to use Wood Release to create such a large Death Forest.

With Cang Si's current strength, he couldn't even say that he could survive one or two moves from the First Hokage who was using all his strength...

Anyway, the Kage-level strongmen and the tailed beasts are just toys in the hands of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha.

It is said that the first Hokage used Wood Release to conquer the world, while Yamato used Wood Release to green the environment. This can be seen from the Forest of Death.

Following the instructions on the map, Cang Si came to a huge tree, but there was no sign of anyone here.

Along the way, Cang Si saw the true face of the Death Forest, which was filled with a large number of poisonous insects and ferocious beasts.

Although the strength

It won't have much impact on Souji who is at the level of Kage, but if a Chunin comes here, it won't be so easy for him to come and go freely.

Just as Cang Si arrived here, the entire ground suddenly cracked slowly, and a young man with pale skin and vertical snake-like pupils walked out.

This person is the Orochimaru that Cang Si is looking for!

"Mr. Cang Si, my summoning beast told me that you have been looking for me these days. Is there something wrong?" Orochimaru's unique voice sounded in Cang Si's ears.

Including this time he met Orochimaru, Souji has now met all three ninjas.

Tsunade had treated Souji when he first traveled through time, although they had little communication.

Not to mention Jiraiya, he is Souji's instructor.

Now, in order to trade the information in Orochimaru's hands, Cang Si took the initiative to contact him.

"Lord Orochimaru, I didn't expect that you also have a research base in the Forest of Death. No wonder I haven't met you in my visits to your house these days." Cang Si did not state his purpose at the first time, but instead brought up other things.

"You don't seem surprised at all, Cang Si-kun." Cang Si didn't bring up the business, and Orochimaru didn't plan to ask any more questions.

"Lord Orochimaru, you're joking. I have longed to participate in your development of scientific research, but I only got the opportunity today." Cang Si was very respectful.

During this period, Orochimaru was still a good young man. Although he looked scary, he was still easy to talk to.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people in Konoha choosing to follow Orochimaru.

As for this research base, since Orochimaru dared to let Souji come directly, I think he had reported it to the Third Hokage.

There are all kinds of creatures here, and there are dense forests to shelter them, which is perfect for research.

I wonder how many such research bases there are in this huge forest of death.

"Oh? Mr. Cangsi is also interested in research?" Orochimaru asked in surprise.

During the few days that Cang Si was looking for him, Orochimaru could say that Cang Si's personal information had already been thoroughly checked by Orochimaru.

Of course, this is just the surface information.

As for the deeper level of Cang Si awakening the Ice Escape, and the strength to enter the Kage level, even Jin's identity is not yet known to outsiders.

However, all these superficial information show that Cang Si has no interest in scientific research.

Therefore, Orochimaru was surprised when Souji suddenly said this.

"Now that the war is over, I'm at home with nothing to do, so I had some ideas." What Cang Si said was true.

In the past few years, he was either carrying out missions outside or developing ice escape.

After developing some of his ice escape abilities, he went straight to the battlefield.

When the war was over, they bought some large research equipment.

It’s really only now that I have the free time to think about research.

"So, Mr. Souji is looking for me for research?" Orochimaru asked the question again.

"Let's put it this way. I want to buy some research materials from Lord Orochimaru. I wonder if Lord Orochimaru is willing to trade?" Cang Si didn't change the subject.

"Oh? What aspect?" Orochimaru asked with interest.

"About genes and cells." Cang Si answered seriously.

As soon as Cang Si finished speaking, Orochimaru's vertical pupils couldn't help but change.

Chapter 80 Cooperation with Orochimaru

Orochimaru thought that Souji was coveting the cells of the First Hokage, which was why he had this reaction.

Konoha's research on the cells of the first generation of Hokage had just begun not long during this period, and this can be said to be one of the biggest secrets of the entire Konoha high-level officials.

"Did the Hyuga clan discover through the Byakugan that we are studying the cells of the First Hokage?" This was the thought that popped into Orochimaru's mind at this moment.

This research was tacitly approved by the Third Hokage.

For so many years, Konoha has not produced a bloodline ninja with Wood Release, so the Third Hokage also wanted to reproduce this power.

Now the research on the cells of the first generation of Hokage is jointly conducted by Orochimaru and Danzo.

In the original work, this research caused the deaths of a large number of children, so it was eventually abandoned by the Third Hokage, but Danzo and Orochimaru did not give up.

In the end, he even successfully cultivated a Wood Release Ninja, who was the Yamato in the original work.

However, this matter must not be known to the people in the village.

After all, the first Hokage was the previous Hokage. If the people in the village knew that they were studying the remains of their ancestors, it would definitely cause great turmoil in Konoha.

People in the village thought that if the Konoha high-level officials dared to study the cells of the first Hokage, then what about their ancestors?

Even after their death, will they be put on the research table?

This is not allowed by anyone in the entire village, and it can be said to be a taboo research.

Of course, the change in Orochimaru's expression could not be hidden from Souji.

But Cang Si also felt puzzled. He didn't know what he had said wrong to cause Orochimaru to react so strongly.

"Mr. Cangsi, how much do you know about the research on cells and genes?" Orochimaru asked tentatively.

At the same time, Orochimaru was ready to control Hinata Souji at any time.

However, for a member of the Hyuga family, if he suddenly disappeared, it would definitely cause great trouble.

This is true even if he is Orochimaru, who is known as one of the three legendary ninjas.

Therefore, Orochimaru will not act rashly before being sure.

Although he felt puzzled, Cang Si also began to be secretly on guard.

Then, Cang Si was also thinking hard.

How did I offend Orochimaru's sensitive spot?

"Could it be that research? About the cells of the first Hokage, Hashirama Senju?" A sudden idea flashed in Cang Si's mind and he thought of something.

"Yes, I think only this research that cannot be known to everyone in Konoha can make Orochimaru so sensitive." Cang Si thought with certainty.

The look on Cangsi's face as he fell into deep thought made Orochimaru wonder more and more whether he knew something.

Just as Orochimaru was about to attack, Cang Si's voice was heard.

"Lord Orochimaru, I want to know how to make cells return to their ancestral home. Can this be done by fusing the cells of people of the same clan?" Souji's words interrupted Orochimaru's action.

"Hmm? So Cang Si-kun is interested in this. I thought..." Orochimaru stopped talking halfway.

"Oh? What does Lord Orochimaru think it is?" Cang Si asked, pretending to be confused.

In any case, Souji would never admit that he knew that Orochimaru and the Konoha high-level officials were studying the cells of the first generation of Hokage.

There is no benefit in not saying anything, and it may even cause trouble.

The first Hokage's research on cells might be of some use to the Uchiha clan, but as a member of the Hyuga clan, Souji has never really thought about Wood Release.

I haven't even fully developed my ice escape technique, let alone wood escape technique.

"Nothing, but what are you going to exchange for with Cang Si-kun?" Seeing Cang Si's expression, Orochimaru did not bring it up any further.

"I can provide funds for Lord Orochimaru." Cang Si's first thought was to use money to buy it.

"I'm not short of funds now." Orochimaru shook his head and said.

This is indeed the case. Orochimaru is not ready to defect from Konoha yet, so a lot of his research funds are provided by Konoha.

Money is not a shortage for Orochimaru now. After all,

There is a village, the strongest ninja village in the entire ninja world, that supports his research.

Moreover, the research Orochimaru is currently doing is all under the supervision of Konoha's top leaders, and he does not conduct those cruel human experiments.

Even the research on Wood Release was tacitly approved by the Konoha high-level officials.

Perhaps it was in the later period when Orochimaru was preparing to defect and was doing research alone without the knowledge of the Third Hokage that he encountered a lack of funds.

After realizing this, Cang Si sighed helplessly.

Even if I am a member of the Hyuga family and I am wealthy, I can't compare to the official level of Konoha.

"I have a suggestion, I wonder if Mr. Soji is willing to accept it?" Orochimaru said with a faint smile as he looked at Hyuga Soji who was still lost in thought.

"Hmm? Lord Orochimaru, do you have any suggestions?" Cang Si asked vigilantly.

Cang Si was afraid that Orochimaru would directly say something like "I need your body."

But think about it, Orochimaru should not have developed the Reincarnation Technique yet.

"Don't be nervous, I just want to ask if Mr. Souji has ever thought about working under me. To this end, I can provide you with the information you need." Orochimaru licked his lips with his tongue and looked at Souji with interest.
