Looking at the instruments around him that were clearly flowing with chakra, he turned and pointed not far away, at the giant python that had been transformed by Orochimaru and was constantly producing chakra to provide operating energy for various equipment.

Sakura clearly had an expression of "are you kidding me" on her face when she heard about the science mentioned by Orochimaru.

"What a keen observation... But Sakura, these are just replicas of the results I had in my mind, not completely new results."

"Replicate?... I think I understand. But please crack this world's magic system as soon as possible. We don't have much time..."

"Hehehe, I will try my best."

Although Sakura has full trust in Orochimaru, who has mastered the "core technology", she does not actually place all her hopes on Orochimaru.

After all, judging from the fact that Orochimaru only needs one thousand destiny points to be summoned, there must be some flaw in this world that makes Orochimaru so cheap.

Now, after hearing about Orochimaru's replica and seeing all the instruments in the basement that all relied on chakra to operate, Sakura roughly had her own answer to Orochimaru's shortcomings.

'His scientific research system is now all based on the chakra environment... Is this Orochimaru's flaw... As expected, in the end, he still has to rely on - Grandpa.'

Thinking of this, Sakura quietly came to the jar containing the body of Matou Zouken, looked at the fat insect that was still wrapped in the blue light, and a smile that looked a little creepy appeared on her face.

"The life of the flesh is too short and too impermanent...Isn't that right, Orochimaru?"

"That's right. Tangible things will wither sooner or later, and so will people..."

"Then I, as your granddaughter, need to prepare a body for your grandfather that will never wither as soon as possible..."

As she spoke, a terrifying aura began to burst out from Sakura's young body. Even Orochimaru, who was standing behind Sakura and seemed so calm in the face of everything, couldn't help but look at Sakura sideways at this moment.

Just when Orochimaru was looking at Sakura with a sidelong glance, Sakura, as the object of attention, waved at Orochimaru and then turned and walked towards the entrance of the laboratory...

"Orochimaru, starting from tomorrow, please spend one hour every day to train me in basic physical skills..."

"Haha, no problem."

Watching Sakura disappear in the laboratory, under the dim light, Da Sheng, with a pale face and a cold aura all over his body, suddenly laughed...

"Sakura, what kind of scenery will this gust of wind bring... I'm really looking forward to it..."

5. 'Conquer' Matou Zouken

Half a month ago, this was the study room that belonged to Matou Zouken alone.

The traces of Zouken Matou's property in the study room disappeared after Sakura took over the entire Matou family.

With good lighting, modern design, and a desk and chair specially prepared for Sakura, this once simple-style study, after being renovated by a professional design team, now shows who the real owner of the Matou family is.

He gasped and trembled as he stopped hammering the wooden stake in front of him.

Shinji Matou, who had been awake for a full week, was pounding the wooden stake in front of him with all his might.

Suddenly, a curse was heard from the second floor of Matou's inner house. Shinji couldn't help but stop what he was doing and looked towards the study room where the voice came from with admiration and respect, muttering to himself.

"My stupid grandpa, can't you accept the reality?"

Listening to the vicious words that were almost like curses constantly coming out of the study, a trace of disdain flashed across Shinji's face. Then, with an extremely chic movement, he lifted his bangs that were wet with sweat.

The half-month period has arrived, and the insect king of the Matou family has awakened.

However, for Zouken Matou, who was frozen by the power of fate half a month ago, the half month that caused the Matou family to change drastically was just a moment.

Zouken Matou struggled to twist his fat body like a maggot, hoping to escape from Sakura's palm, but he did not give in.

"You vicious little brat from the Tōsaka family, forget it. You can never get any knowledge or information you want from me...Ahhhhh~!"

With a delighted smile on her face, Sakura once again interrupted Zouken's speech by pinching off one of his gastropods.

This interrogation had been repeated for about an hour.

Sakura, who had begun judging and torturing Zouken as soon as he woke up, once again raised her questions.

"Grandpa, please hand over all the information and magic you know about the Holy Grail. This way you can suffer less."

Hand it over? How could I possibly hand it over?

There was no way that Zouken Matou, who had no idea what method Sakura had used to make him unable to use any of his magic power, would possibly hand over what Sakura wanted.

How could Matou Zouken, who had lived for more than five hundred years, not know that once he gave Sakura what she wanted, this little monster from the Toosaka family would crush him to death without hesitation.

I can't die, I absolutely can't die, I have to live no matter what.

Zouken Matou, who had long forgotten his once lofty dreams and was twisted into his current form over the past five hundred years, now has only one pursuit left in his heart: to survive, to live forever.

Therefore, not to mention that Sakura just pulled off his gastropod, even if Sakura skinned him, pulled out his tendons, transferred his soul into a maggot, and threw it into the dirtiest place in the world, he, Matou Zouken, would still stubbornly survive.

Of course Sakura knew this.

Therefore, this nearly one-hour interrogation and torture was purely Sakura's "revenge" on Matou Zouken from the very beginning.

But the revenge may end here.

At this time, Sakura had almost completely pulled off the abdominal foot of Kirizoken.

If he continues to play around, he might really need to find a new body for Zouken Matou... But that's not possible. You know, in order to control Zouken Matou, Orochimaru spent a full eleven days using the improved sealing technique to completely block all possible attacks of Zouken Matou, turning him into a bug that he can play with in his hands.

"Grandpa, are you really unwilling to 'help' me no matter what?"

"Hiss~hiss! Don't even think about it..."

"What if I sign a self-enforcement agreement with you to guarantee that I will not kill you if you hand these over?"

As Sakura blurted out this sentence, the head of the worm that Sakura was holding in front of her with one hand suddenly revealed a human-like face, which made Sakura feel nauseous.

"Hehehe... Sure enough, your purpose is not to kill me..."

As if he had caught Sakura's weakness, Matou Zouken, who looked quite weak a second ago, suddenly let out a strange laugh.

Sakura already felt sick at first because of Matou Zouken's old face, and then there was his sudden weird laughter, which was something she could only tolerate as an uncle, but not as a 'sister'.

Just when Matou Zouken was feeling proud and thought he had found Sakura's weak spot and was about to take the opportunity to put forward some conditions.

A force that was enough to shatter Zouken Matou into pieces in the next moment made Zouken Matou understand his situation in an instant.

"Change back! Speak human language!"

Sakura, who was holding her palms tightly, was disgusted to the point of almost losing her mind. At this moment, there was no doubt that she was holding Zouken Matou's fate by the throat.

Looking at Sakura's eyes that had almost lost all emotional luster, at this moment Matou Zouken had no doubt that as long as he didn't do as Sakura said, the little devil in front of him might really crush him to death.

"Yes... yes... old man, I will change back now, no... don't... use more force..."

Sakura threw the transformed Zouken Matou onto the desk in front of her. After this incident, Sakura might never choose to touch this disgusting looking insect with her hands again in her next life.

He suppressed the remaining nausea in his body, and watched Matou Zouken struggle to crawl back in front of him.

A self-enforced certificate that Sakura had created using the magic information of the Matou family was then placed in front of Matou Zouken.

"Sign him, and you can live...if you can agree to work for me..."

As she spoke, Sakura took out another self-enforced certificate from the drawer of the desk.

"Then I can guarantee that before I come of age, Grandpa, you can obtain the eternal life you want from me!"

eternal life....

Needless to say, how much impact these two words had on Matou Zouken, who just wanted to live and live forever.

only....

Staring closely at Sakura's face that looked at him with a smile on her face, at this moment, Matou Zouken felt like a child facing the temptation of candy, and fell into painful entanglement.

The self-imposed certificate is genuine and there is absolutely no problem with the content.

But... does the little girl in front of me really have the ability to grant others eternal life?

There is, of course, no doubt.

Sakura controls the Temple of Destiny, which is composed of countless people who are unwilling to be manipulated by fate. Naturally, she can use the Temple of Destiny to help people achieve immortality in a partial sense.

And there are so many ways to achieve this, so many that Sakura herself probably can't figure out how many there are.

Therefore, there is absolutely no problem for Sakura to fulfill this self-imposed certification.

Of course, Sakura would not tell Zouyan what exactly Sakura would give to Zouyan Matou, and what form that "eternal life" would take.

But one thing... that is, once the contract is fulfilled and Zouken Matou is no longer useful, I'm afraid Zouken Matou will regret it very much...

6. Matou Family Affairs

At the lunch table at the Matou family.

Except for Orochimaru, who is not sure whether he is now a member of the Matou family, and the prodigal Kariya who is still wandering somewhere unknown.

At this time, all the members of the Matou family in Fuyuki City have arrived.

But it’s different from a dozen days ago.

At this moment, the head of the Matou family who was sitting at the head of the dining table had been replaced by... the little girl Matou Sakura, who had just celebrated her fifth birthday.

Sitting on the chair specially made by Matou Tsuruno to please her, facing the three generations of the Matou family who were obviously shorter than her.

Sakura happily knocked on the armrest of the special chair, signaling that everyone could start eating.

The Matou family came from Europe to the small place of Fuyuki, so of course they did not have the custom of shouting before eating like in Japan.

Just when Sakura gave the signal, indicating that everyone could start.

Shinji had been practicing physical skills in the garden for the entire morning and was already starving. So he naturally stretched out his chopsticks without hesitation and attacked the table of delicious food that was ordered from the hotel.

However, just as Shinji picked up a large piece of premium Wagyu beef and put it into his bowl, preparing to devour it.

Under Orochimaru's instruction, Shinji, who had successfully used the chakra seed in his body to gain the magical power of chakra, suddenly discovered that, except for himself, no one on the table, whether it was his "waste" father or his "monster" grandfather, had moved...

"Dad, eat...Grandpa, do you want to eat too?"

Sakura smiled gently at Shinji. Knowing how tired Shinji was from his training, she looked at Shinji with a surprised look on his face and spoke immediately.

"Brother Shinji, you eat. Grandpa and Uncle Tsuruno may not have a good appetite."

“Oh~…”

Poor appetite? Those are all just excuses.

The reason why the two did not pick up their chopsticks was because Matou Zouken and Matou Tsuruno knew very well that this so-called family dinner was definitely not just a real dinner.

Compared to feasting on the food, the most important thing for the Matou father and son was to find out as soon as possible what the strange little girl in front of them thought and what her orders were.

Just as Shinji lowered his head to eat again, Sakura, who was sitting in the main seat with a smile on her face, spoke.

"Uncle Tsuruno, how much more funds can our Matou family allocate?"

"Well, without affecting the basic situation, give me a week and I can withdraw 3000 million US dollars... After a month, I can withdraw a maximum of 5000 million US dollars."

"Is that all?"

This is not what Sakura said casually. Although the magic of the Matou family has weakened, the economy of the Matou family has not declined at all. Under the management of the head of the family, Matou Zouken, who has lived for more than 500 years, the family is better than the Tohsaka family next door who is poor but pretends to be rich.

The Matou family owns a lot of real estate and makes a living by renting out spiritual land to magicians. Not only does it have a stable source of income, it can also be called a very wealthy family.

"I'm sorry... we can only mobilize this much temporarily. Most of the liquidity we have accumulated before was used to purchase equipment and materials for Lord Orochimaru's experiments."

After hearing Tsuruno's slightly timid report, he remembered that a few days ago he asked Zouken Matou and Tsuruno to mobilize hundreds of millions of US dollars to purchase equipment for Orochimaru.

"Um... I'm sorry, Uncle Tsuruno, I forgot... But my next plan requires a large amount of funds, what should I do?"

Although she said what to do, in fact, Sakura's eyes were already looking at Matou Zouken who was sitting on her left.

Facing Sakura's gaze, Matou Zouken, who temporarily surrendered to Sakura for the sake of eternal life, and restored his human appearance by wearing the clone prepared by Orochimaru, could understand what Sakura meant.

"Ahem, Tsuruno... Sakura's 'plan' is the most important thing for our Matou family... Do you understand?"

"Father, what do you mean..."

"Choose ten land deeds. I will contact some old friends to raise the funds."

"Yes, father, I will prepare it this afternoon."

Listening to the questions and answers between the father and son in front of me.

Sakura immediately nodded in satisfaction.

Then, having achieved her goal, Sakura turned around with a happy mood, picked up her chopsticks and enjoyed the food in front of her with peace of mind.
