Now that a conclusion has been reached, Kōki needs to carefully consider who to contact.
There's a problem with finding Tsunade: nobody knows where Tsunade is.
Since leaving Konoha, a place of sorrow, she has been traveling around. Unless she takes the initiative to contact others, it is very difficult for others to find her.
Of course he could find it if he wanted to, but Konoha was currently at war with Sunagakure, so he didn't have time to go.
If we really want to find Tsunade, we can only wait until the war is over.
However, we can have Aizen of Tsunade, help locate her first, and then visit her when the time is right.
Therefore, the only and fastest target now is Orochimaru. Only Orochimaru is close to him and meets his requirements.
However, Kōki was still somewhat worried. After all, this was Orochimaru, not an ordinary ninja, and the risks and benefits of cooperating with Orochimaru were difficult to predict.
This uncertainty made Kōki hesitate. Should he wait until the war was over to find Tsunade, or should he hurry up and go directly to Orochimaru?
The two different choices left Kōki in a dilemma. After agonizing for more than half an hour, Kōki gave up. He thought that there was still plenty of time, so he should first thoroughly understand the records of Tobirama Senju that he already had.
Another month passed in the blink of an eye. Kōki, along with the Ino-Shika-Cho squad, completed many difficult missions in the Anbu, making his name widely known among the other squads in the Anbu.
On the other hand, because Kōki and his group's actions repeatedly thwarted Sunagakure's plans against Konoha, the people of Sunagakure hated Kōki to the core, to the point that they would gather their forces to besiege him whenever they saw Kōki.
Meanwhile, due to Kōki's actions, the battle on the main battlefield between Sunagakure and Konoha intensified.
The unfavorable situation of Sunagakure on the flank affected its offensive on the main battlefield. As a result, Sunagakure had to send more men to launch a fierce attack on Konoha, intending to put pressure on Konoha on the main battlefield.
Konoha, not to be outdone, was led by Orochimaru, whose ruthless style meant that even though Konoha had fewer men, they did not back down and still ordered their ninjas to meet the Sunagakure attack.
Of course, Orochimaru wasn't stupid. He knew the disadvantage in his own forces and devised some strategies, successfully repelling Sunagakure while minimizing casualties.
Even so, Konoha still suffered considerable casualties.
It can be said that both Konoha and Sunagakure suffered heavy losses, but Sunagakure was hit harder.
In the last few days, due to the heavy losses suffered by both Konoha and Sunagakure, Sunagakure had to slow down its attack on Konoha, while Konoha, due to its own weakened strength, did not retaliate against Sunagakure.
The war has now reached a stalemate once again, with both sides making every effort to restore their strength.
At the same time, due to the stagnation of the main battlefield, the frequency of battles on the flanks also decreased, which gave Kōki, as a member of the Anbu, some time to deal with his own affairs.
The person standing in front of him now is Aizen, whom he released more than a month ago. He called Aizen back to report on the recent battle results.
Kōki looked at Aizen and said, "You've been gone for over a month. Have you gotten anything good?"
Aizen knew why the original body had called him back, so he took out several scrolls from his pocket and tossed them to Kōki.
"This contains all the spoils I've gathered over the past month or so. As for its actual value, you'll have to judge for yourself. I also obtained a corpse with Kekkei Genkai. You can use it as research material."
Upon hearing that Aizen had actually obtained the corpse of a Kekkei Genkai, Kōki's eyes lit up. He did indeed need the corpse of Kekkei Genkai user as material.
However, he then realized that he had been so busy fighting that he hadn't even scratched the surface of basic research, so obtaining this corpse now would be of no use to him.
Seeing the treasure right in front of him, yet being powerless to do anything about it, this agonizing feeling caused Kōki to show an anxious expression.
However, he also knew that some things couldn't be rushed, so he kept telling himself, "Don't rush, don't rush. Take it slow. To achieve Six Paths, one must have ample patience. Don't let restlessness affect you. You have to walk one step at a time, and eat one bite at a time."
After calming his anxious heart, Kōki's expression returned to calm. He said to Aizen, "The body you brought back was timely. I've also successfully increased the number of those Special Shadow Clone to two after studying the Second Hokage's records for a period of time."
"In other words, we can now control two more special corpses. And since I don't need the corpse you brought back today, I can just turn it into Special Shadow Clone like you, so it can assist you in completing our mission."
In the past month or so, Kōki has successfully mastered the research records of Tobirama Senju that he obtained from Hiruzen Sarutobi.
These records successfully allowed him to create two more special Shadow Clone. He could sense that as long as he studied and learned from Tobirama Senju's records, he could continue to create Special Shadow Clone.
However, he could sense that there was a limit to the number of these special Shadow Clone he could create, and that he couldn't use them indefinitely.
Kōki didn't care about this, since there weren't that many good corpses for him to possess right now. He would consider increasing the number of clones he could possess once he obtained Tobirama Senju's complete records and had enough bodies. For now, he would maintain the status quo.
He's not in a rush at this point; he has plenty of time to take his time.
Upon hearing Aizen's words, his already gentle expression softened into a smile; he too needed help to complete the mission.
It's not that he lacks ability, but having an assistant makes things much easier.
He had originally planned to establish an organization to recruit outsiders, and now that the main body said it would find him an assistant, it was even more necessary to recruit others.
It's easier to get things done with more people. Having your own people occupy the top ranks of the organization and then recruiting others to work for them is the way modern people should behave when they time-travel. You can't do everything yourself, can you?
"Since you put it that way, I happen to have an idea. We can create an organization similar to Akatsuki. Our special clones can be the official members, and we can recruit some ordinary ninjas as outer members. This will speed up our resource gathering process. After all, there's strength in numbers, and even some small fry have their value."
Aizen's words made Kōki fall into deep thought. After considering the pros and cons of establishing an organization, he realized that having an organization in the Shinobi World could indeed speed up their plans and reduce the burden on his clones.
"Okay, then let's form an organization."
