Researching Reincarnators with Orochimaru

Who is the most troublesome among the Sannin?

Tsunade, the strongest in Taijutsu; Orochimaru, the strongest in Ninjutsu; and Jiraiya, who possesses Sage Mode, are all invincible existences. However, if we're talking about troublesome, Orochimaru, the scientist second only to the Second Hokage, is definitely the most troublesome among the Sannin.

In the original story, the Third Hokage, despite receiving news from Jiraiya, confidently stated he could handle Orochimaru and end their fated connection.

In reality, he was Orochimaru's teacher and understood him well. Although old and weakened, Orochimaru was also not in peak condition. By then, Orochimaru had already switched bodies countless times, suffering irreversible damage to his soul and spirit. Remember, Chakra comes from both physical and spiritual strength. It's not surprising that Orochimaru was completely suppressed by the Third Hokage after multiple reincarnations.

However, Orochimaru summoned two incomplete Hokage using the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu, completely overwhelming the Third Hokage, forcing him to use the mutually destructive Reaper Death Seal.

Before this, Hiruzen Sarutobi had always been confident, even when facing the Third Kazekage or Orochimaru.

Facing such a troublesome and unpredictable Orochimaru, and being targeted, the remaining two were a psychic with no trace of him, Yun Duanyou, who replaced himself with this psychic and disappeared without a trace. As for Wuying...

Wuying tried his best but couldn't escape Orochimaru's pursuit. Both of them had abilities suited for escape, but Yun Duanyou was undoubtedly more suited than Wuying.

Orochimaru was initially careless, allowing Yun Duanyou to escape easily. But Wuying's desperate efforts increasingly piqued Orochimaru's curiosity and interest. He wouldn't let him go no matter what.

With Orochimaru's vision and knowledge, he naturally understood that the opponent's so-called "Shadow Style" was completely different from the Nara Clan's. The opponent was using and manipulating shadows, but it wasn't the Nara Clan's shadow jutsu. Regardless, this was a valuable specimen. Once Orochimaru captured him...

Wuying was deemed unable to escape.

"Mission failed, Reincarnator, termination." A voice sounded in his mind, and Wuying, bound by Orochimaru's snake, suddenly twitched. Heat rose from his head, and he slowly lowered it.

"Oh?" Orochimaru, surprised, approached the snake's side and looked at him. "Vital signs are still present, but..." He pinched Wuying's ordinary face, and Chakra instantly analyzed his brain through his hand.

"His brain is fried."

"Some kind of restriction?" Orochimaru said with regret.

"Did I come too late?" Oguri Hayashi's voice arrived along with him and Tsunade.

After entering Konoha, the exchange of information became smooth. Konoha's intelligence system, built over nearly a hundred years, was constantly at work. Tsunade's information exchange was extremely rapid and efficient after entering Konoha, almost a different experience compared to Takigakure. It was precisely thanks to this intelligence system that they found Orochimaru so quickly. And it was also because of this system that any intruder into Konoha met a bad end!

"Lord Orochimaru," Oguri Hayashi said, looking at Orochimaru with a smile.

"Lin-kun!" Orochimaru didn't hold a grudge against Oguri Hayashi for kicking him away three years ago. Instead, he admired Oguri Hayashi's decisiveness and was curious about his abilities.

In his opinion, Oguri Hayashi was strong. At twelve, he could send flying the Third Hokage and the Sannin. Three years later, he was on track to become Kage-level, a person he could converse with as an equal.

"Tsunade." Orochimaru turned his head and nodded at Tsunade. His expression remained unchanged, but his eyes softened slightly. They were teammates after all. They had worried about Tsunade after she was abducted by Oguri Hayashi. However, later, Tsunade's Katsuyu was summoned back to deliver a message. Since it was a summoned beast, it represented Tsunade herself, so no one doubted her words.

Most importantly, Tsunade's story was true: she, suffering from Hemophobia, needed a place and time to adjust. That place was Takigakure, and her disappearance was perfectly explained. So many ninja had seen it, and it was impossible to keep it secret, but it also served as an opportunity and an excuse.

Tsunade had disappeared for three years.

During these three years, Orochimaru remained loyal to Konoha, being the most brilliant scientist and researcher since the Second Hokage. His sponsor was not the Third Hokage, but Danzo of Konoha's Root.

But even so, they were all "for Konoha."

"Is he dead?" Oguri Hayashi and Tsunade looked at Wuying, who was bound by Orochimaru's snake. He was the one Tsunade had pursued and who had escaped.

However, compared to the strong Taijutsu ninja Tsunade, Orochimaru was undoubtedly more troublesome. This time, he wasn't so lucky.

"In terms of activity, he's not dead, but biologically, he's completely dead."

Orochimaru stuck out his tongue, like some kind of signal, and the snake, thicker than a human thigh, released Wuying.

"Brain death?" Oguri Hayashi stepped forward first, unafraid of the snake, and began to examine Wuying.

Wuying was different from the first four people he had encountered who were killed.

Those four died fighting, their bodies riddled with holes, leaving no information about the Infinite Hall. But this one, it was likely the Infinite Hall sensed danger and acted on its own, frying his brain.

To fry someone's brain without Orochimaru noticing meant either their technology had surpassed his understanding of the 21st century, or they were truly an unparalleled powerhouse.

"Truly amazing, no external signs of injury." Although there were no traces of a craniotomy on the entire head, the entire brain was cooked thoroughly like a brain flower placed in a microwave. Apart from some brain fluid dripping from his nose like snot, there were no visible signs of injury on his body—this also showed Orochimaru's strength; if he said he wanted to capture him alive, he captured him alive, and apart from abrasions, there were no major injuries!

However, the fact that the opponent didn't take the body away indicated some problems.

Even though the opponent was dead, Oguri Hayashi's face broke into a smile.

He felt he was getting closer to the truth of this Infinite Hall.

"Lord Orochimaru, you can perform Impure World Reincarnation, right?" Oguri Hayashi turned to Orochimaru and asked.

"I think it's time to use the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu."

That's right, the original purpose of creating the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu was precisely for interrogating the dead!!
