There was even one who gave me the feeling of looking directly at death, from his chakra to his appearance to his lawless aura... He said hello to me not long ago, although not in a very friendly way.
"Noah...you didn't tell me that the Akatsuki organization also includes the Kyuubi."
Orange-red fur, sharp claws, arrogant demeanor, and nine short chirping tails standing behind it.
A black robe with red clouds covered his fox body, and he stood on the round table in a dignified manner.
People who don’t know may think this is some super cute mascot, but only those who know its background will know that this is the ultimate nuclear weapon in the ninja world.
The strongest tailed beast in the ninja world, the Nine-Tails, is the one whose tail can shake the earth when it moves.
With this foundation, the Akatsuki organization is a very powerful existence among the five major countries and is on par with the Shinji of Konoha.
Orochimaru simply ignored the other three newcomers. His eyes were fixed on the Nine-Tails. Isn’t the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki in the village?
That was the assistance of someone who had been personally confirmed by the Sandaime, and Orochimaru didn't believe that Sarutobi Sensei would be confused in this regard.
So...what happened between that night when the peerless swordsman chased the Nine-Tails and the Yondaime sealed it?
During this period, no Konoha ninja witnessed the real situation. Now it seems that the hidden story is not simple.
In the original novel, the third generation still brought people to the scene. He even witnessed the fourth generation's operation and the scene where the nine-tailed fox killed two in a row was also witnessed by everyone.
But in this timeline, when they arrived, there was only a pool of blood and a lonely Naruto, so they assumed that the Nine-Tails was sealed inside.
Even if it is only half of the Nine-Tailed Fox, it is still an unrivaled existence. With the Sandaime's knowledge, he really can't tell the difference between half a fox and a whole one.
So the cover-up was successful. Apart from Black Zetsu who learned the truth after being hit by Kurama's roar, only the high-ranking members of the Akatsuki organization knew about it.
When Kakuzu first met the Nine-Tails, he was also a little confused. He didn't understand why another fox would join the Akatsuki organization? Even on par with him, a powerful figure who assassinated the first Hokage.
Then he was taught a lesson by Jiu Lama. After the big hand materialized, it started to whip.
Di Yuanyu's so-called vascular attack was pitifully weak in front of the origin of chakra and was severely restrained.
Unconvinced, he wanted to show off his ninjutsu but was defeated by this ninjutsu doctor.
"You are qualified to use five-attribute ninjutsu?"
The fox's mocking voice completely crushed the ninja's self-esteem. From then on, Kakuzu understood that he should just do his finance-related work well, and be as honest as possible when facing cute animals.
The situation was a bit awkward, so Noah came out and briefly talked about the Nine Trumpets, and Orochimaru also swallowed this astonishing fact.
Then he looked at Nine-Tailed Fox with burning eyes. In his opinion, this was also a very good research target.
Whether infinite chakra is a legend or reality, whether the tailed beasts are flesh and blood, and their origins are all areas of interest to scientists.
Before, the strongest tailed beast had always been on the Jinchūriki's body and outsiders could not study it at all, but now it has escaped. Isn't this...
"Little devil, if you look at me again, I'll kill you."
"Finally...the two snakes tasted pretty good. The meat soaked in natural energy was very chewy."
The evil spirit of thousands of years gathered into the appearance of a fox, and shocked Orochimaru's mind in a way similar to an illusion attack.
At that moment, he seemed to see a towering fox roaring under the moon, and he instantly retracted his somewhat revealing look.
Foxes can perform illusions? This is something that I cannot afford to offend for the time being. The remains of the Red Fang and the Green Snake in the scroll will all feel sad.
Chapter 155 I Understand Sustainable Development
But...if snakes of that quality can continue to be provided, can they be exchanged for some chakra?
The White Snake Immortal of Longdi Cave: ...
Orochimaru turned his attention to the remaining three new members.
As a result, the second person he stared at was... Xiaobai.
With Orochimaru's venomous eyes, it was obvious at a glance that Xiaobai was not a human being.
Although there was a Sharingan in the opponent's eye socket, that was not the aura of a human.
This can be confirmed by the abundant Yang Chakra and the active wood texture.
He had done the first generation of Wood Release experiments and later came into contact with the white body tissue given by Noah, so he immediately connected the two.
At the beginning, I always felt that the piece of body tissue that Noah gave me was too active. Even if it was the first generation of cells, it would not feel like it had just been cut off.
Now the mystery is solved, that is, this bastard has a special humanoid experimental subject.
And just as he expected, there is a connection between Wood Release and Sharingan.
The Sharingan embedded in this strange-looking humanoid creature is very coordinated, which is a level that can never be achieved in experiments. How can there be such a strange existence in this world?
The little brat Kakashi did show some signs of improvement after the mission in the Snow Country, but it was a pity that Noah was watching him too closely.
The terrifying scientist with a high IQ instantly locked onto the second research target.
He wanted to immediately pull Xiaobai into the laboratory to study the idea he had always had.
Akatsuki is awesome, and Orochimaru feels happy.
He felt that his scientific research path here would reach a level that was previously unimaginable, because someone had already put the answers in front of him, and he only needed to work backwards to crack the secret of the bloodline between the Senju and Uchiha.
What will happen when the two strongest bloodlines in the ninja world are combined under some kind of power?
This burning and happy look made Xiaobai feel a little scared.
He had seen this snake-like guy a few times before when he possessed Noah, but now it seems that he is really not a good person.
Noah also hurriedly stood in front of Xiaobai. This was his good friend and he didn't want to harm him.
"Calm down, this guy is Xiaobai. He's also one of our members. In fact, he's always been here but just never showed up."
"You lied to me, Noah."
Orochimaru was referring to the piece of white human tissue as salary.
"It's not a lie, you can buy some body materials from Xiaobai later.
Communicate more, there will be many projects related to him in the future.
But don’t force Xiaobai to do anything. You can experiment by exchanging resources, etc.”
Noah argued that Orochimaru was half-forced and half-lured into joining the group at that time, and then had to return to Konoha for a while.
Out of caution, there are naturally many things that cannot be said. Now that I am back, I can see Xiaobai.
"Hehehe... I understand. It's called sustainable development, right? I've read your book, too."
Noah…what revision are you reading?
Xiaobai also felt that this guy seemed to know something great.
The following introduction was much more normal. The person that Noah solemnly introduced to Orochimaru was Scorpion of the Red Sand, one of the current leaders of the Akatsuki organization's scientific team.
The top genius puppeteer of the Sand Village, who has recently become an artist of machinery.
All the mechanization and industrialization in the village were promoted by this seemingly young boy.
Even a basic materials laboratory is under construction. It can be said that it has single-handedly supported half of the scientific development of the Rain Country.
At this time, Orochimaru became a lot more serious, and maintained a certain degree of respect and recognition for the professionals who are also on the scientific side.
The simplified equipment on the way here has already reflected this person's level.
The two men shook hands and exchanged a few words. Orochimaru, as a master who has made considerable achievements in the field of biological sciences, was not to be outdone.
During the brief exchange, the two sides expressed the idea that they could jointly design some equipment and instruments.
Of course, there is a competitive mood, and Orochimaru needs some products to prove himself.
The current atmosphere of Akatsuki makes him very comfortable. From experimental materials to projects to scientific soil, there have been many advances, and Noah is also vigorously promoting basic science. It feels like he has come to the right place.
"The last person present is Comrade Kakuzu from our Akatsuki organization, the legendary immortal ninja who once assassinated the first Hokage."
Noah began to introduce himself to Orochimaru as he did before, and specifically mentioned the other party's glorious record.
After all, being able to fight the first generation and survive is indeed something worth bragging about for a lifetime in this era. The remaining tasks such as exchanging gold are too low-end and are not worthy of appearing in the previous enthusiastic atmosphere.
The immortal old senior straightened his chest. He also felt that the atmosphere of today's meeting was very good.
This junior named Orochimaru has always been very famous in the ninja world. When he came to their Akatsuki organization, he was shocked.
I am proud of it. What is high-level? This is high-level.
My uncle Kakuzu is quite famous in the dark world. He has lived long enough and his secret skills are powerful enough. He should be able to shock the other party again.
"Hello."
……
You, you're gone just because you're hello?!
The legend of immortality feels uneasy, why you were shocked and coveted before, and finally communicated with that kid Xie on an equal footing and respected each other.
You just say a simple greeting to me, are you looking down on me or do you really look down on me?!
The old man's nose was almost crooked with anger and his self-esteem was shattered.
What does that mean? Is it because I'm not perverted enough that I can't fit in with the atmosphere here?
Orochimaru really didn't think highly of this guy. Scientists are more pragmatic.
Among this group of people, Kakuzu's aura is only slightly stronger than that of the little yellow-haired Yahiko, and his perception of danger is not much stronger than that of Konan.
And the most amazing thing about Noah's introduction is that he fought with the first generation and survived... According to Tsunade's previous description, Orochimaru is one of the few people in the village who knows the character of the first generation.
There is a little gap with other people's words such as wise, powerful, decisive, etc., so I don't really approve of Jiaodu's record.
Just living a long life is not worthy of Orochimaru's attention. He has already come up with a new way to achieve the art of immortality.
In the end, it was Noah who could see Kakudo's depression. He was always so concerned about the employees' mental state.
But we can't let this emotion affect our work state. There are not many people in Akatsuki organization who can work full-time.
So I started to elevate the importance of the other party.
"Kakuzu is also the core member of our Akatsuki organization responsible for finances. You will have many opportunities to communicate with each other in the future."
Upon hearing about the funding, Orochimaru immediately gave a warm handshake.
As a scientist, he understands the mentality of those who give out money, and he gives them enough face.
Chapter 156 Finally met
It's not that I'm not arrogant anymore after coming to the Rain Country, but I just calculated the funds needed for the project I'm about to carry out...
A huge amount, the kind that Konoha would never want to be unable to produce.
Even if he became the fifth Hokage, he would not be able to come up with the funds to support the next experiment.
The funding gap that makes people despair at the mere thought really makes it hard for people to be proud.
So Kakuzu gained a different kind of respect from the other party, although it was still not quite there, but that was it.
This guy doesn't know yet that every time he sees Orochimaru and Sasori in the days to come, he will feel deep fear in his heart.
Money costs life.
"One of our members can't come at the moment. We'll take you to see her later."
Orochimaru nodded and sat behind the round table. Everyone wore black robes with red clouds and exuded their full aura.
Even though it has the words "Peace Organization" written in huge letters on the back, no one believes it. To be honest, there aren't many good people here.
The following meeting was brief, and was mostly focused on various coordination issues at the beginning of the five-year plan, as well as the progress of tasks within each person's scope.
Among them, scorpions are under the greatest pressure. Industrialization is not achieved overnight. The human body also limits the time from 0 to 1.
However, his efficiency has improved a lot after the liver surgery.
Other members of Akatsuki also talked about issues such as population shortage and talent gap.
"Okay, okay, let's solve them one by one."
"The issue of physical fitness affecting the progress of the mission will be addressed immediately. As for the talents... I will go out and pick up a few more in a while."
"There are only so many Sharingan, so we can't attack Konoha."
