These eerie atmospheres had no effect on Uya. Uya walked in and soon arrived at the deepest part, Orochimaru's laboratory.
However, before Uya could even step inside, a girl of about ** years old came out carrying a pile of things.
The girl spotted Uya Uya at a glance, paused for a moment, then instantly recognized him. She was somewhat flustered and couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
"Yu... Lord Uya?!"
Uya was a figure respected and admired by countless ninjas in Konoha, and this girl was no exception.
Seeing Uya appear before her like this, she couldn't remain calm and lost her composure. Her small hand trembled, and the thing she was holding fell to the ground.
not good!
The girl suddenly realized what was happening and hurriedly tried to catch the things, but the more panicked she became, the more chaotic it got. Not only did she fail to catch them, but she also flung even more bottles and jars into the air.
Noticing that they were fragile bottles and jars, Uya raised an eyebrow, flicked his wrist as if turning into countless afterimages, and instantly placed all the scattered bottles back onto the plate the girl was holding.
The girl's pretty face turned pale as she was about to drop everything she saw, but unexpectedly, the bottles and jars were back in her hands in the next instant.
"Thank you... Lord Uya..."
The girl was flattered that Uya would help her, and thanked him repeatedly, a lovely blush spreading across her Uya.
Uya glanced at her with some curiosity, feeling that her appearance was somewhat familiar. Then, remembering that she had come out of Orochimaru's laboratory, he casually asked her a question.
" Mitarashi Anko?"
Hearing Uya call out her name, Anko was incredibly surprised. How could such a high and mighty figure like Uya know her name? Her heart pounded, and she didn't even know how to respond to Uya.
The moment she saw Uya Uya, she recognized him. Overwhelmed with emotion, she almost dropped the experimental materials. She was incredibly grateful to Uya Uya for helping her, and now that Uya saw that he recognized her, she was even more at a loss.
She is currently Orochimaru's disciple and also temporarily Orochimaru assistant. The two people she admires most are her teacher Orochimaru Uya.
Seeing the girl's reaction, Uya's eyes flashed with surprise. He had only guessed casually, but it turned out to be true.
Speaking of which, Kakashi, Kurenai Yuhi, Might Guy, Anko's generation have all started to grow up.
Kakashi, the most talented among them, seems to have recently become Jonin.
Perhaps because Hatake Sakumo did not die as he did in the original story, Kakashi, with his father's guidance and Minato Namikaze as his teacher, improved his strength even faster than in the original story, becoming Jonin at the age of eleven.
However, Might Guy is not far from opening the Fifth Gate. Might Guy who can open the Fifth Gate will be no less powerful than Kakashi. And once he can open the Sixth Gate, he will almost be touching the threshold of Kage Level.
"I never expected that Uya- kun would know my disciple. It's truly an honor for her."
Orochimaru emerged from the laboratory, glancing at Uya and Mitarashi Anko with slight surprise.
Orochimaru this time, before Orochimaru defected from Konoha, Anko still greatly admired and respected him. When she saw Orochimaru come out, she showed a slightly embarrassed expression.
"It's good that it didn't break. You can go now."
Orochimaru waved at Anko, then looked at Uya and said, "I needed an assistant for the experiment, so I picked one from this generation of ninjas. I hope you'll excuse my poor choice."
Uya shook his head noncommittally and walked into Orochimaru's laboratory.
Anko nodded respectfully to Orochimaru, then carried the items into the adjacent room. On the surface, she appeared calm, but inside she was still panicking.
She didn't know how Uya knew her.
Although she had seen Uya from afar in the crowd, Uya couldn't possibly have noticed her. She was just a Konoha Genin who had recently graduated, while Uya was Demigod of the Ninja World who stood above countless ninjas!
The difference in their social status was simply too great, so great that she could only look at Uya from afar with immense admiration, without even having the right to approach him.
But now, Uya actually knows her, which made her think of many things in an instant.
In Orochimaru's laboratory.
The Four-Tails Jinchūriki and the Five-Tails Jinchuriki were bound by two seals, their Chakra surging from time to time, but they were unable to break free of the seals, and both were in a coma.
"It seems my research findings haven't been of any help to you."
Orochimaru welcomed Uya into the laboratory and, as if knowing Uya's purpose, spoke directly.
Uya nodded slightly. He hadn't looked at the scroll in detail when he first received it, but that didn't matter. Orochimaru had previously said that his research on the soul had hit a bottleneck, but now that he had the Four-Tails and Five-Tails as test subjects, he should be able to break through that bottleneck soon.
Uya's purpose in coming here was to have Orochimaru begin his research into the realm of the soul.
"It is somewhat helpful, but this amount of research data cannot play a substantial role, so you need to do your best to research in this area."
Orochimaru said to Uya in Uya deep voice, "Since you've handed over two Jinchūriki to me, I will naturally do my best to research what you want. I've already made some progress."
" Tailed Beast are indeed perfect experimental subjects. I've only had these two experimental subjects for a few days, and I've already discovered many secrets... In fact, I can hand over the experimental results I just obtained to you right now."
Orochimaru dared not be careless in his demands of Uya, especially since his own research on the Living Corpse Reincarnation also involved the soul, which was extremely important and the core of the technique.
Upon hearing that Orochimaru had indeed made further progress in his research, Uya's eyes flickered slightly; he was quite impressed by Orochimaru's talent in research.
Compared to Tsunade's gambling addiction and Jiraiya's womanizing, Orochimaru's hobby of conducting various experiments and research seems to be much better than Tsunade and Jiraiya's.
"Now that we've made some progress, I'll just wait and see."
Uya looked at Orochimaru and spoke calmly before turning and leaving, without rushing to ask for what Orochimaru had researched over the past few days.
The results of several days of research are certainly not perfect. There can be no carelessness or negligence in the matter of the soul. Uya's attitude towards this is the same as Orochimaru's, both of them are extremely serious.
"We'll have results soon."
Orochimaru breathed a sigh of relief, a slightly wicked smile appearing on his face as he watched Uya leave. (To be continued.)
