The Massive Pit Orochimaru Dug for Himself

Once Hinata's mastery of Yin-Yang Release reaches the level of the Sage of Six Paths, Hinata will be able to use the power of Yin-Yang Release to create life from the Natural Energy within the Sealed Space.

This is the legendary process of breaking through the elixir and becoming an infant!

"To be honest... my current situation is probably somewhat similar to the method of cultivating the God Tree, isn't it?"

"Indeed, knowledge is power!"

Hinata suddenly understood why Orochimaru was so obsessed with experiments, to the point that he disregarded ethics and morality and ignored life.

Only by grasping the truths of the world can you know how to increase your power.

Orochimaru's understanding of truth might be at the level of the Sage of Six Paths.

However, Hinata's belief in the truth is based on the Otsutsuki clan, which is modeled after Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Hinata seems to have a broader perspective than Orochimaru, but that's only because Hinata has more information.

But how could Hinata know that in this endless universe, there might be a race or a training method even more powerful than the Otsutsuki clan?

Ultimately, Hinata and Orochimaru are both frogs in a well, only Hinata's well opening is slightly larger than Orochimaru's.

Hinata is very self-aware and will not become arrogant because of this.

"However..."

"It's okay to show off a little in the Ninja World!"

You must be timid when you need to be, and you must be assertive when you need to be.

During a break from training, Hinata connected with the Artificial Satellite's visual sharing to locate Orochimaru's hiding place, and then used Yamanaka Clan's Secret Technique to make contact with Orochimaru.

"Hey! Orochimaru, when are you planning to leave?"

Having witnessed yesterday's events, Orochimaru was no longer surprised by this.

After examining him for an entire day, Orochimaru still couldn't find any tampering Hinata had done to him, which left Orochimaru feeling somewhat gloomy.

Once you reach Orochimaru's level of power, no one likes being controlled by others.

"Tomorrow!"

Orochimaru casually replied, "I still have some things to prepare."

"Oh~"

Hinata didn't care much. Anyway, she was still young, and there was still about a year before Black Zetsu's plan began. There was always enough time.

"You did a lot of experiments on yourself yesterday, did you get any results?"

Orochimaru was startled upon hearing Hinata. Hinata was indeed monitoring him, and everything he had done yesterday had been exposed to her.

However, Orochimaru had anticipated this and was preparing to use his prepared excuse to brush off Hinata when Hinata casually remarked, "Orochimaru, you're such a meticulous person. Yesterday I asked you about the difference between being a man and being a woman, and although you were a little unhappy at the time, you went back and gave yourself a physical exam..."

"Orochimaru, I misunderstood you. You are actually a good person. Please forgive my stinginess before."

Orochimaru: I will never forgive you!

For a moment, Orochimaru really wanted to tell Hinata the truth.

The purpose of my physical examination is to detect the marks you left on me, not to examine myself and then tell you the difference between men and women!

"Inhale—exhale—"

Orochimaru took a deep breath, calming the surging killing intent within him, and said calmly, following Hinata's words, "I'll tell you the result in a while!"

Hinata was overjoyed and said happily, "Great! Orochimaru, I'll be waiting for your good news!"

Orochimaru suddenly felt as if he had dug a huge hole for himself.

Although the matter of checking the mark was not exposed, Hinata seemed to believe his explanation... well, it should be that Hinata never doubted it from beginning to end.

In Orochimaru's view, Hinata must be extremely confident in her methods.

But... what are you going to do Hinata asks you about Orochimaru later?

Orochimaru misses Jiraiya a bit. If it were Jiraiya, he could definitely answer Hinata's question perfectly!

"If there's nothing else, I need to continue my experiments!" Orochimaru dismissed him.

Hinata sighed and said, "Nothing's wrong!"

Orochimaru was secretly delighted.

Hinata continued, "It's because I had nothing to do and was bored that I came to chat with you."

Orochimaru: Are you a little demon sent by heaven to torment me?

However, Orochimaru maintained his composure and, upon hearing this, stopped his experiment and instead asked with interest, "Hinata, don't you usually need to do repairs?"

Orochimaru's original intention was to find out Hinata's current strength and training methods.

Hinata shrugged in the bedroom and said smugly, "I'm already invincible, why would I need to train?"

Hinata feels she needs to rebuild her "can get stronger even while lying down" persona, as many people have recently misunderstood Hinata's secretly training hard.

That won't do!

Thinking of this, Hinata added, "I can get stronger even while lying down, I'm helpless about it!"

Orochimaru: "..."

This is impossible to talk about!

Even Orochimaru, who was praised by the Third Hokage as a genius who only appears once every few decades, also worked hard in his youth to achieve his current strength.

Orochimaru always believed that no matter how talented a person is, they will not amount to anything if they don't work hard.

Orochimaru is very grateful to his younger self for his hard training.

But Hinata is different. Hinata is someone using 'effort' to erase her 'talent'. This is something Hinata absolutely cannot tolerate.

"Orochimaru, how about we talk about your childhood?" Hinata said again.

Orochimaru's first reaction upon hearing this was that Hinata wanted to find out secrets, especially secrets from Orochimaru childhood.

"Is it about the old man? Tsunade? Or Jiraiya?"

"Or perhaps... the Summoning Scroll in the possession of the Legendary Sannin?"

Orochimaru's mind raced with countless conspiracy theories. Perhaps Hinata had contacted him because she was encountering difficulties in her training.

Is it a problem with Natural Energy?

Hinata, with the character 'eight' written on her left eye and 'divination' on her right, asked with great interest, "Orochimaru, I've seen your childhood photos. Although your skin was a bit pale, you were still quite handsome. Did Tsunade ever have a crush on you?"

"You and Jiraiya get along, is it because of Tsunade?"

"But I heard that Tsunade's boyfriend was named Dan. Did you kill Dan?"

Orochimaru: I knew it. I should never have any illusions about Hinata's thought process.

Orochimaru gritted his teeth and said, "If there's nothing else, I need to do my experiments, otherwise I won't have time to get to Ryūchi Cave tomorrow."

Hinata said nonchalantly, "It's okay! If it doesn't work tomorrow, then the day after. I'm not in a hurry."

"Orochimaru, look how well we know each other, let's chat, just to kill some time... smack smack... sucking sound..."

Orochimaru: I can even hear the sound of eating... Also, who are you close to?
