Hidden Leaf Village, in the eastern suburbs, the forest that used to be full of life was silent. All the animals were frightened by an inexplicable power and lay on the ground shivering.

Underground in this forest, each Laboratory is in order, with sophisticated instruments and fascinating specimens placed inside.

In a room of Laboratory that had been specially emptied, Orochimaru was kneeling on the ground, clutching the ground with both hands. White scales appeared on his body and disappeared in an instant.

Suddenly, Orochimaru raised his head and howled in pain, making a "hissing" snake language.

A large amount of blood seeped out from his body, and the blood was mixed with patches of white snake scales.

Time seemed to have passed for a long time, and it seemed to have only passed for a moment. Orochimaru exhaled heavily, and his trembling body calmed down.

"This kind of power... makes people intoxicated!"

Orochimaru stood up slowly with his hands on the ground and laughed crazily.

At this time, all his clothes had long since collapsed, and his bare chest was dotted with many white snake scales, but the most eye-catching thing was his pair of snake eyes. The originally brown pupils were faintly glowing with golden color, exuding an inexplicable power.

"How wonderful life is!" Orochimaru slowly stroked the snake scales on his body with a hint of intoxication in his tone.

<Tengshe Transformation> is a very wonderful skill. By fusing the essence and blood of Tengshe, the blood of Tengshe is integrated into one's own body. Finally, it is practiced to form the external form of Tengshe, allowing one to freely switch between Tengshe and the human body.

This process is very dangerous. Once unable to compete with the Tengshe bloodline, a person's body will easily collapse, become a monster that is neither human nor a snake, or lose consciousness.

But compared with this huge risk, once the bloodline is successfully fused, you will obtain part of the Tengshe talent, and practice <Tengshe Transformation> with twice the result with half the effort.

Orochimaru is a complete madman. He used the essence and blood of White Snake Sage to replace the essence and blood of Tengshe, and he was actually able to achieve the first transformation successfully.

After putting on another piece of clothing, Orochimaru felt the surging vitality in his body. The corner of his mouth showed a big arc, and he murmured in a low voice, "I need the complete technique."

"Obito-kun, let me see what you have planned." After closing his eyes and thinking for a while, Orochimaru opened his bright snake eyes, smiled softly, and walked towards Laboratory where the rice and other seeds were placed.

On the other side, Obito, who had just returned to Hidden Leaf Village, had a dark face. Several old men blocked him at the door aggressively, as if they were launching an attack to accuse him.

"Obito, I can't help but burn money like this!" Uchiha Clan Great Elder Uchiha Hayakawa's hair was gray and his body was trembling. Obito looked at his excited look and was really afraid that he wouldn't be able to breathe.

"Yes, even though I made a lot of money during this period, those experiments were too expensive!" The second elder Uchiha Yuto was younger, but he also used a cane and coughed from time to time.

Obito had a toothache. These old men were so old, and Obito was really afraid of provoking it. When they got excited, they jerked away, and couldn't help but give Uchiha Fugaku, who was watching his nose and heart, a hard look.

Uchiha Fugaku was a little embarrassed and stepped forward and said, "Obito, the experiments conducted by those tribesmen are really too expensive. We have lost almost all the money we made during this period. We really can't help it."

"If you succeed in research, you will earn money." Obito said angrily, and personally helped Great Elder sit on the chair.

The third elder snorted coldly, took out a ledger, and angrily said while flipping through it, "Those little bastards don't know what they are doing every day, how can they be successful, they just add money to it every day."

Uchiha Tomoya, as Third Elder, is the youngest, and he is usually in charge of the Uchiha Clan's finances.

Originally, when I looked at the recent money coming in, Uchiha Tomoya became more pleasing to my eyes the more I looked at Obito.

Who would have thought that Obito would have to divide into groups and let the clan members do various experiments.

Now that I see this group of tribesmen burning money every day, Uchiha Tomoya is ready to strangle these little bastards, and is indifferent to Obito.

"Hey" Obito sighed with a headache. He had personally inspected all the tribesmen who could do experiments. He still had talent, but after all, he had no research experience and the progress was very slow.

Looking at the three old men who were staring at him closely, Obito had no choice but to coax, "Three elders, these experiments are still to be done. That is my future hope, Uchiha Clan."

"As for the money problem, I have solved part of it. Last time, Itachi and Masaki developed a potion. Land of Fire's Feudal Lord and the nobles liked it very much. They were willing to pay one million taels for ten of them."

Uchiha Tomoya's eyes brightened, his gaze softened as he looked at Obito, and he praised, "This is a big business, well done."

"So, those experiments are still of great value. As long as they are successful, why worry about not having money?" Obito breathed a sigh of relief and continued to draw a big cake for the three elders.

The three elders looked at each other, and finally Uchiha Hayakawa pondered for a moment and came to a conclusion, "Then let's do it first."

Looking at Obito with slightly hazy eyes, Uchiha Hayakawa patted Obito's arm tremblingly and said slowly, "Obito, we all see what you do, and you still need to be in charge of this family. It's just that we old men are timid and are afraid that Uchiha Clan, who is eager to move forward, will go astray, which will be very annoying. I hope you can bear with me more."

Obito held Great Elder's wrinkled hand tightly with his right hand, smiled and comforted, "You have all opened Three-Tomoe Sharingan, and your mental power is very strong. As long as you practice Meditation Technique more, you will definitely see Uchiha Clan flourish."

"That's good, that's good!" Uchiha Hayakawa laughed loudly, supported by Third Elder Uchiha Tomoya, and walked out together.

Looking at the three hunched backs, Obito sighed a little. He turned around and looked at Uchiha Fugaku who was leaning there, and said angrily, "Is there anything else?"

Uchiha Fugaku smiled coquettishly and explained, "Obito, I didn't bring them here, they came on their own."

"I don't blame you." Obito rolled his eyes, sat on a chair, poured a cup of tea, and motioned for Uchiha Fugaku to sit down and talk.

Uchiha Fugaku sat down and drank a cup of tea for himself, then handed Obito a post with the badge of Hokage on it.

"Oh" Obito took the letter and read it over with a sarcastic smile on his lips.

"I think the third generation is Shinobi Hero. It should be called traitor." Obito slapped the post on the table with a chill in his tone.

Uchiha Fugaku had read the post before and was not surprised. He replied, "What to do? He wants us to hand over Might Duy, otherwise we may transfer him back to Namikaze Minato and Orochimaru will continue to guard the border."

"No," Obito said without hesitation, looking in the direction of Hokage's office with an intriguing smile, "Orochimaru doesn't necessarily want to go to the border."
