Forbidden Art: Immortality!

Konoha, inside the secret study room.

In the dim candlelight, Orochimaru stared at the scroll with a morbidly fanatical expression, as if he had discovered some kind of continent, and couldn't help but let out a hoarse laugh.

"Heh, so that's how it is. Perhaps this Ninjutsu can achieve the goal of immortality."

Just as Orochimaru was laughing in a sickly, hoarse voice, his snake eyes suddenly narrowed and looked towards the door. A moment later, there was a knock on the door.

With a creak, the wooden door slowly opened, and Uchiha walked in. Looking at Orochimaru in the dimly lit study, holding a huge scroll with a sickly smile that seemed to indicate he hadn't had enough, Uchiha couldn't help but feel speechless.

For some reason, Orochimaru's research room was bright, tidy, and technologically advanced, but his study and bedroom were rather dark and cold, as if they were just trying to create a certain atmosphere.

"Hehe, it's Lord Yoru Ye. I wonder what good news Lord Yoru 've brought this time?"

A full year has passed, and the Konoha High Command is still feigning ignorance, not uttering a word about electing the Fifth Hokage, as if they want to wait until the Third Hokage dies in that position before bringing it up.

Looking at Teacher Orochimaru, Uchiha Yoru smiled, slowly took out a scroll from his robes, handed it over, and said with a smile, "Teacher Orochimaru, this is Ninjutsu that only the elite members of the clan with Three Tomoe can master."

Uchiha ninjas with Three Tomoe are almost all Jōnin- level, and their mastery of Ninjutsu is extraordinary, encompassing a wide range of techniques including Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, and hidden weapons.

The Uchiha is known as the Konoha's Premier Noble Clan, and even the number one Kekkei Genkai families in the Shinobi World, and there's a reason for that. Almost every ninja who awakens the Sharingan is a perfect ninja with virtually no major flaws.

If you're an ordinary ninja, you'll need to spend a lot of time honing your Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, and hidden Genjutsu. But the Uchiha are different. With the Sharingan activated, their Genjutsu skills skyrocket, and they can even counter Genjutsu against Genjutsu- type ninjas.

In terms of Taijutsu, they also possess superior dynamic vision (observation ability). So even if their Taijutsu are slightly inferior, they will not only not be at a disadvantage but will also find opportunities under such vision. As long as the gap between them is not too large, they can still fight.

Not to mention hidden weapons; with the Sharingan's enhancement, which one is weak? And Ninjutsu— not to mention the Sharingan's copying ability at the Three Tomoe level, the Uchiha Clan is famous for its Ninjutsu.

Therefore, every Uchiha awakened the Three Tomoe Sharingan was among the best of their class, which is why the Shinobi World had the consensus that anyone of the same level would flee in a one-on-one encounter with Sharingan.

"Hehe, it seems the teacher should first congratulate Lord Yoru on his Sharingan evolving to Three Tomoe."

A hoarse laugh echoed in the study. Orochimaru licked his lips with great interest. His disciple had exceeded his expectations, evolving into the Three Tomoe Sharingan in just one year. He was truly a genius.

Uchiha Yoru generously handed over all the clan's secret Ninjutsu. Although it was a typical case of someone selling off their family's wealth without a second thought, it must be said that Orochimaru was pleased with this gesture.

Although Orochimaru was magnanimous, no one dislikes sincerity, especially when his disciple was able to set aside sectarian prejudices. It should be noted that the Uchiha and Hyuga were traditional, old-fashioned noble families with deeply ingrained ideas that were difficult for anyone to break through.

"Teacher, I hope the Ninjutsu of our clan can inspire you."

At this moment, Uchiha Yoru wore a sincere smile, as if he genuinely cared for Orochimaru, and the bond between the two became even stronger.

Unrolling the scroll revealed various secret techniques of the Uchiha Clan. While Orochimaru found them impressive, they weren't exactly rare, given that they belonged to the Uchiha Clan and were best suited for techniques enhanced by the Sharingan.

However, this kindness warmed Orochimaru's heart, who had experienced the coldness and warmth of human relationships, and he couldn't help but reveal a hoarse smile.

"Lord Yoru, what do you think of the concept behind this Ninjutsu?"

Seemingly anticipating his disciple's unexpected insights, Orochimaru let out a hoarse laugh and generously pushed the enormous scroll in front of him forward.

Uchiha was also very curious. When he saw the scroll filled with information, he was taken aback. It seemed to be a Ninjutsu that was under development and had not yet been successfully developed.

Sure enough, it was filled with records of various experiments, followed by all sorts of ingenious ideas and tricks. After reading most of it, Uchiha Yoru's face immediately showed a look of shock.

At that moment, Uchiha Yoru looked up at Orochimaru. The shock on his face was not feigned at all; he was genuinely shocked by this incomplete Ninjutsu.

When Orochimaru saw the shocked expression on his disciple's face, Orochimaru also revealed a sickly smile and said hoarsely, "Lord Yoru, I was just as shocked as you when I first saw this information about Forbidden Technique, but you read it carefully."

At this moment, Orochimaru's sickly smile was tinged with worry. He was concerned about how his disciple would react after seeing it—would he be angry and unable to accept it, or would he find common ground, or perhaps even develop the same pursuit as him?

Upon seeing this Ninjutsu, the unrealistic desire he had been suppressing for so long instantly resurfaced, and the thought of its feasibility echoed in his mind! His pursuit was not wrong! Wasn't this the path he was looking for?

"This is! This is!"

After roughly reviewing the enormous scroll, Uchiha Yoru couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine, revealing a look of shock. This was clearly a collection of Forbidden Technique experiment data.

"Hehe, what came to mind when you finished reading this Forbidden Technique information, Lord Yoru?"

At this moment, a rare look of anticipation appeared on Orochimaru's sickly face. He hoped that someone would accompany him on his lonely and unacceptable journey, but he also felt a trace of fear of the world's rejection.

After all, the Orochimaru of today is not the Orochimaru of later generations who has severed everything and completely disregarded the eyes of the world.

He is still Konoha, one of Sannin legendary Orochimaru of Cold Lord.

Under Orochimaru's hopeful gaze, Uchiha Yoru couldn't hide the shock in his eyes. He took a deep breath and slowly uttered two words under Orochimaru's complicated expression. Upon hearing these two words, Orochimaru's expression froze.

"Immortality! This Forbidden Technique holds the hope of achieving immortality!"

At that moment, Orochimaru seemed to tremble with his very soul. In his dazed expression, a single, crystal-clear tear welled up in the corner of his eye—a tear of understanding.

Haha~

Immediately afterward, Orochimaru's face broke into a morbid, maniacal laugh. His snake-like eyes stared aggressively at Uchiha Yoru. At that moment, he seemed to feel that he had found a like-minded companion, and he couldn't help but burst into a hoarse laugh.

"Lord Yoru! You've really surprised me!"

Orochimaru was in a state of extreme excitement and madness. If one did not know his true nature, they would probably be shocked by the scene before them, but Uchiha Yoru understood perfectly.
