Orochimaru was taken aback, then instantly let out a cold snort.
"Don't think I don't know that this is just a feigned surrender!"
"As for technology, I conduct my own research; there is no need for me to join you!"
Orochimaru was quite stubborn, though he was curious and did want to obtain Uchiha Sora's technology.
However, he knew that was impossible.
Beside him, Uchiha Sora smiled, his Gatling Gun already aimed at the giant python below.
"Is that so? Then don't blame me!"
As he spoke, the Gatling Gun slowly began to rotate, and a dense barrage of bullets poured down.
They surged toward Orochimaru with unbridled force.
Fortunately, Orochimaru reacted quickly, hurriedly maneuvering the giant snake beneath him to dodge repeatedly.
Finally, after several evasive maneuvers, he managed to escape to a great distance.
Seeing this, Deidara's expression shifted, and he suddenly spoke up.
"Master, why don't I create more Clay? I can use explosions to accelerate, and we might still be able to catch up!"
Uchiha Sora shook his head.
"No need to chase! I intend to let him go for now; he's a good prospect for the future."
Deidara was clearly stunned.
"Master, do you mean that Orochimaru can also believe in art?"
Uchiha Sora shook his head.
"Not art, but he also appreciates science. Now that he has witnessed the power of these weapons, he will naturally crave that technology as well."
"He will come looking for me when the time is right!"
With that, Uchiha Sora put the Gatling Gun away.
Deidara, standing to the side, exclaimed that it was unfathomable.
But in truth, Uchiha Sora wanted to laugh.
According to the original story, Orochimaru had attracted Sasuke through the power of the Cursed Seal.
Yet now, it was actually he who was attracting Orochimaru through technology.
Everything had been completely reversed.
What was even more absurd was that Orochimaru would have to do it willingly.
Just then, as he was thinking this, Uchiha Sora approached Tsunade.
The moment Tsunade saw Uchiha Sora, her expression instantly softened.
"Doctor Uchiha Sora, it has been a long time since I enjoyed your massage."
Uchiha Sora smiled, and electrical currents appeared between his fingers.
"As it happens, my electrical currents can also heal injuries. Why don't you give it a try, Lady Tsunade?"
Watching this scene, Kakashi felt a wave of jealousy.
"You brat! How could you be so shameless before? You actually opened a massage parlor and only allowed female ninjas to enter!"
Jiraiya also wore a look of indignation.
"Now that you mention it, I'd forgotten—this brat Uchiha Sora is quite something. He opened a shop all by himself, specifically to provide massages for female ninjas!"
"Good grief, he's practically touched every woman in the village!"
Uchiha Sora put on a serious face.
"My two seniors, what do you mean by that!"
"I have never had such thoughts; all of this is just a reflection of your own dirty minds!"
"I have always been pure; my only intention was to relieve the fatigue of the ninjas in the village!"
Uchiha Sora said this with shameless audacity, his hands already placed on Tsunade's back.
Electrical currents surged, accompanied by the rolling of chakra, repairing Tsunade's fatigue bit by bit.
"Sigh! I say, Jiraiya, your thoughts are just too filthy. Uchiha Sora is still so young, yet you have such ideas about him—it's simply unreasonable!"
"He is still just a child!"
Kakashi and Jiraiya's eyelids twitched.
Looking at Uchiha Sora's satisfied expression, he didn't look like a pure child at all!
"Damn it! Ah, forget it. Tell me, why were you targeted by Orochimaru?"
At this moment, Jiraiya stepped forward, his face full of confusion.
Clearly, he did not understand how Tsunade had become involved with Orochimaru.
Shizune, standing to the side, couldn't help but look grim the moment it was mentioned.
"Orochimaru sustained a certain injury that he hasn't been able to heal for a long time. It's bizarre; even after seeing it myself, I have to admit that kind of injury is incredibly potent!"
"However, it is said that it was caused by Uchiha Sora!"
As Shizune spoke, her gaze shifted toward Uchiha Sora.
Uchiha Sora wore an innocent expression and hurriedly shook his head.
"Don't look at me. I didn't do it, and Orochimaru isn't looking for you guys because of me!"
Tsunade couldn't help but shake her head.
"It's not about blaming you, but rather curiosity about what on earth you used to wound Orochimaru like that?"
"What exactly is that bizarre injury?"
It wasn't just Tsunade; Jiraiya and the others also looked over.
They were curious, too.
After all, as the Sannin of Konoha Village, they understood just how monstrous Orochimaru was.
He was essentially an unkillable cockroach.
Now, he had actually been wounded like this by Uchiha Sora's strange weapon.
It would be strange if they weren't curious!
Seeing that he couldn't hide it anymore, Uchiha Sora coughed and, after a moment of thought, said.
"It's nothing much, just collateral damage from my previous attack method. Nothing special, it just has a very strong persistence... for about several hundred thousand years, I suppose!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned.
"What kind of thing can last for a hundred thousand years? I'm afraid even curses and seals couldn't achieve that!"
Jiraiya's mouth hung open, looking bewildered and incredulous.
Kakashi, standing to the side, found his breathing becoming rapid, and he couldn't help but stare straight at Uchiha Sora.
"Lasting 100,000 years? What exactly did you do, kid? Based on my knowledge, even some heaven-defying forbidden techniques couldn't leave behind such aftereffects!"
Tsunade was even more shocked.
"Is it a toxin? No, that's not right. I've never heard of any toxin that could last for such a long time. Could it be the Sharingan? What exactly did you do, kid?"
Seeing that everyone was incredibly curious, Uchiha Sora could only cough and, after thinking for a moment, said.
"It's nothing, really. Besides lasting 100,000 years, this thing can only destroy the human body's genes. Of course, you wouldn't understand; genes are a person's foundation, one could say they are the source of life."
"Furthermore, this thing is called nuclear radiation. It can penetrate any material, and only certain specific things can block it."
"Otherwise, the places where I've used it would be uninhabitable for at least a few hundred years, with not a blade of grass growing."
The moment these words were spoken, the entire room fell silent. Everyone present couldn't help but gulp, staring at Uchiha Sora in shock.
What kind of thing could be used once and leave the land barren for a hundred years? This was simply more powerful and terrifying than any forbidden technique!
The group was even afraid that if Uchiha Sora used it a few more times, there might not be a single piece of intact ground left in the entire world.
For a moment, Tsunade looked at him with admiration, feeling that the kid before her seemed even stronger than all the geniuses of the past.
He was almost catching up to Madara Uchiha, which made Tsunade sigh in praise.
"Uchiha Sora, you are so outstanding at such a young age. It seems that in the future, you might just be the next generation's Hokage."
Uchiha Sora hurriedly waved his hands, looking humble.
"No, no. If you ask me, Lady Tsunade is the one who should be the new Hokage."
Tsunade was stunned.
"Why do you say that?"
Uchiha Sora's expression shifted, and he cursed his luck inwardly.
