After leaving Orochimaru's laboratory, Orochimaru had Shamu meet all of his trusted subordinates.
Sure enough, aside from the few people whose names had remained in the previous world, no one else provided any attributes.
But the moment he saw the remaining four members of the Sound Five,
a notification chimed in Shamu's ears.
Ding! Congratulations, Host, for greatly altering the life trajectories of the Sound Four. Congratulations, you have obtained: Cursed Seal x4 Ding! Successfully recruited the Sound Four. Congratulations, you have obtained: Earth Attribute Affinity, Music Mastery, Archery Mastery, Single-Minded Dual-Use.
So these four didn't even deserve names?
Earth Attribute Affinity was pretty good, but what the hell were Music Mastery and Archery Mastery? It wasn't like I was some Hyuga Railgun from next door!
Did Single-Minded Dual-Use count Sakon and Ukon as one person?
Could it be that Sakon and Ukon had been conjoined twins from birth, rather than being modified by Orochimaru?
Shaking his head, Shamu thought that Orochimaru's subordinates in this life all looked fairly normal. He had not seen much modification done to them.
But all four of their ninjutsu were Cursed Seals, which meant the Cursed Seal was probably the only thing they could really show off.
Including the one he had obtained from Jūgo, Shamu could now use the Cursed Seal five times.
Hidden Sound Village
The enormous conference room was packed with people.
After leaving Orochimaru's place, Shamu had gathered all the Uchiha clansmen.
Every Uchiha who was still in Hidden Sound Village and not out on a mission had come.
Shamu sat at the head of the table. Below him sat Third Elder Takuya, Itachi, and Shisui in that order.
Over the past few years, Third Elder Takuya could be said to have fulfilled his lifelong wish.
