The morning breeze blew gently through Uchiha Clan Compound, bringing a touch of coolness and freshness.
The figure of Orochimaru appeared on the edge of Uchiha Clan Compound. His appearance was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.
After being intrigued by Iori's alien technology, Orochimaru couldn't wait to come to Uchiha Clan Compound the next morning.
When everyone in the Uchiha Clan saw Orochimaru, they couldn't help but whisper, and their eyes were full of surprise and confusion.
Although Uchiha Clan Compound does not prohibit outsiders from entering, few outsiders come, let alone a big shot like Konoha Sannin.
The jounin of the nearby security team rushed over quickly. His eyes were alert and respectful, and he asked Orochimaru: "Lord Orochimaru, I don't know why you are here?"
Looking at Orochimaru's cold face, there was a hint of trembling in the Jonin's voice. Orochimaru's reputation made him feel even more stressed.
Orochimaru looked at him calmly, without any fluctuation in his eyes. He said calmly, "I received an invitation from Mr. Iori and joined his service."
He didn't pay attention to the people's looks and comments at all. Now that he had made a decision, he would not hesitate.
It's just a little bit of face and the teacher's disgusting desire for power. Compared with my own dream, it is not important at all.
I saw that white strip more than ten years ago
"Really? Please wait a moment, I need to verify it with the above."
The guard sergeant swallowed. Even though he was also a battle-experienced ninja, he still felt an indescribable pressure in front of the cold chakra of Orochimaru.
Immediately, he sent his subordinates out to find Iori and others to verify the information.
In recent days, security at Uchiha Clan Compound has been tighter than ever.
At this juncture when the clan leader had just been replaced and Senju and Uchiha were uniting, they did not dare to relax at all.
The arrival of Orochimaru has intensified the tense atmosphere. After all, Uchiha and Hokage have always been at odds with each other, and they have never heard that Orochimaru has close relations with the tribe.
Soon, members of the security team rushed back and whispered a few words into the captain's ear.
The captain nodded, then turned to face Orochimaru, and said respectfully, "Lord Orochimaru, please come with me, the patriarch is waiting for you in the laboratory."
Orochimaru follows the ninjas of the security team as they travel through Uchiha Clan Compound.
Along the way, he noticed that there were dense sentries and strict security, which made him feel a little curious.
What kind of things did Iori hide in the laboratory? It was so tightly guarded that it seemed to be on par with the guards of Hokage Building.
While thinking, the captain stopped in front of a shimmering barrier.
He fired a signal towards the inside, and soon, the barrier slowly cracked open as if it were alive, forming a hole that could only be penetrated by one person.
"Lord Orochimaru, I don't have permission to enter. Mr. Iori is waiting for you inside. Please come in."
The jounin said respectfully.
Orochimaru's curiosity has become more and more intense, and even the jounin of his clan needs permission to enter. This shows the importance of this laboratory.
When he passed the barrier, he subconsciously explored the properties and characteristics of the barrier.
[Defense, sound insulation, early warning, hey, these enchantments are not the style of Uchiha. These are obviously the characteristics of the Uzumaki Clan. It seems that Senju and Uchiha have really joined forces.]
[Although I know that his relationship with Tsunade is unusual, this level of cooperation cannot be achieved through personal relationships. He is indeed Mr. Iori.]
Orochimaru felt a surge of excitement in his heart.
After changing his mind, the more powerful Iori became, the happier he became.
If you want to develop a different world, it is not enough to rely on the power of one person alone. Only by gathering the power of everyone can you quickly develop a different world.
He walked into the laboratory, and the sight in front of him made his eyes light up.
The laboratory is equipped with Ninja World's most advanced equipment. These instruments were purchased with the dual support of Uchiha and Senju's financial resources and channels. They are cutting-edge equipment that will not be released on the normal market.
Some were even smuggled from Kumogakure through the relationship between Daimyo of the Land of Lightning.
When Iori saw Orochimaru arriving, he immediately went to greet him.
He didn't beat around the bush or use any extra courtesy, he just said it straightforwardly.
"Senior Orochimaru seems to be impatient. Why don't I tell you about the ongoing projects now?"
"Please tell me, I have been looking forward to it for a long time." Orochimaru showed a rare expression of excitement. The mysterious thing Iori had hidden was about to be revealed to him.
Iori looked at Orochimaru's impatient face and began to introduce him to the project currently in progress.
"The first one is the transplantation of Wood Release Cells. You should have guessed this."
Iori looked at the scroll in Orochimaru's hand and said meaningfully.
Orochimaru looked at Iori and smiled slightly, "It seems that Tsunade should have shown you the experimental diaries and records I left in the past."
"But what she didn't know was that Danzo later kidnapped 60 children from nearby villages, and we subsequently conducted experiments on those children."
"Although the experiment still failed, I found a lot of information from it, but I found that Wood Release was not the longevity technique I wanted, so I gave up."
"This is the Wood Release Cells inhibitor I developed at that time. It can suppress the activity of cells to the greatest extent, but the transplantation effect cannot be optimal because of this."
Contrary to Iori's expectations, Orochimaru did not hide his past experiments, but spoke openly and honestly. It seemed that he really planned to surrender completely.
He handed over the formula, opened Iori and took a few glances, and found that it was completely different from the formula he had seen yesterday, and the fundamental idea had changed.
Seeing Orochimaru's sincerity, Iori did not hide the information he knew. He told Orochimaru:
"Your last Wood Release experiment is not considered a failure. One child successfully survived and awakened Wood Release, but his Wood Release is not worth mentioning compared to First Hokage's Wood Release."
Orochimaru was a little shocked when he heard this, but he immediately reacted. He remembered the child who was struggling on the death line and refused to die.
"Is he the last child? I thought he was dead, but he survived. The human desire to survive is really terrifying!"
A trace of complicated emotions flashed across his eyes, as if he saw his own shadow in the child.
Orochimaru himself is the same. It is precisely because he lost his parents and disciples that the more he knows the fragility of life, the more he wants to pursue eternal life.
