Chapter 197

"Didn't Itachi see it?"

"It should all be in the Scroll of Sealing."

"In the Scroll of Sealing? What is it called?"

Orochimaru’s brow furrowed.

There are just too many forbidden techniques in the Scroll of Sealing.

He didn't know how the Second Hokage managed to create so many of them.

The quantity was so vast that even Orochimaru hadn't looked through them all.

He only picked the ones he felt interested in to research.

As for those forbidden techniques he had no interest in, he just glanced at them and didn't pay much attention.

"Why, do Itachi want to research it?"

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye glanced at him and then said.

"It wouldn't hurt to tell Itachi, after all, it’s not a technique Itachi would be interested in."

"The technique is called the Mutually Multiplying Explosive Tags. It is a forbidden technique with extremely high lethality, but it also poses a life-threatening risk to the user."

Orochimaru realized.

He remembered this technique.

When he saw it at the time, he was still wondering why someone would create such a technique that kills a thousand enemies while suffering a thousand in return.

So it was meant to be used in conjunction with an Impure World Reincarnation body?

Indeed, thinking about it this way, it all makes sense.

An Impure World Reincarnation body cannot die; it can completely serve as a suicide soldier to rush in and perish together with the enemy.

The key is that the enemy will die, while the Impure World Reincarnation body will not.

"That really is a genius idea."

Orochimaru couldn't help but exclaim.

He became slightly interested.

But not much.

He cares more about the continuation of life.

After participating in multiple wars and gaining a deeper understanding of the fragility of life.

Orochimaru only wants to find a way to make his own life continue indefinitely.

Only then can he continuously conduct research on ninjutsu.

In the end, Orochimaru is no longer like a ninja, but a pure researcher.

"This way, on the battlefield, there is no need to consume the ninjas on one's own side. Just one dead person is enough to turn the tide of a battlefield."

Orochimaru had to admire Tobirama Senju’s thinking.

But he also had to acknowledge Tobirama Senju’s creativity.

However, it is clear that as a junior of the Senju clan, Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye has no desire to follow the path of his predecessor.

Even Orochimaru had no thought of learning the Mutually Multiplying Explosive Tags.

Orochimaru felt that this kind of behavior was a complete waste.

If one were to awaken famous powerhouses from the past, such as the Kage-level figures of various villages, the power they could display would be far greater than a simple suicide ninjutsu.

At least on a tactical level, it would be much richer.

"So, how is the research progress on Impure World Reincarnation? Is it usable yet?"

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye looked at Orochimaru with full expectation.

Orochimaru shook his head and said.

"Not yet, research on forbidden techniques is not that simple."

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye was somewhat disappointed.

But he could also understand.

"Since that’s the case, remember to call me when Itachi have results."

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye gave a greeting and turned to leave.

Behind him, Orochimaru snorted coldly and said.

"So, are Itachi still thinking about having the dead deliver packages or takeout for Itachi?"

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye turned back, revealing a brilliant smile.

"Of course, it’s not just that."

"I also plan to have Water Style ninjas irrigate rice fields, and Earth Style ninjas renovate land, modify roads, and so on."

"And most importantly, aren't Itachi curious about the knowledge held in the minds of these Impure World Reincarnation bodies?"

When Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye said this, Orochimaru’s eyes immediately lit up.

For Orochimaru, knowledge is the most important thing.

It is also the driving force for his research.

The more he knows, the more he understands his own insignificance.

Orochimaru is deeply intoxicated in the ocean of knowledge, and therefore deeply fears the brevity of his own lifespan.

That is why he wants to research forbidden techniques to extend his life.

Currently, he has some ideas, but it will take a long time to complete.

But Orochimaru soon discovered a problem.

"No, the summoned Impure World Reincarnation bodies will not cooperate with Itachi, and Itachi cannot use torture to obtain that knowledge."

"Forced control can only control their actions; it cannot make them answer your questions."

If this problem is not solved, Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye’s proposal is completely meaningless.

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye rolled his eyes and said.

"Why is it that the first thing Itachi think of is such a cruel method?"

"Can't Itachi use a gentler approach?"

Orochimaru looked at Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye with a seeking gaze.

"For example?"

"For example, fulfilling someone’s last wishes."

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye said.

"After all, not everyone has no regrets before they die. If one can make up for their regrets in life, I’m afraid they would be willing to talk."

Orochimaru frowned, always feeling that this matter was not very reliable.

But he had to admit that this was the only feasible method.

Subsequently, Orochimaru couldn't help but exclaim.

"I didn't expect Itachi to have such a humane idea."

"It is the technique that is inhumane; what does that have to do with me?"

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye rolled his eyes.

"If Itachi want to find someone, find the Second Hokage. Who told him to create such an inhumane forbidden technique."

So Itachi also know this forbidden technique is inhumane?

Then why do Itachi have so many even more inhumane ideas?

Orochimaru couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"We need to talk."

Facing Tsunade Senju’s serious expression, Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye was at a loss.

"Talk, talk about what?"

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye asked tremblingly.

He was afraid that Tsunade Senju would suddenly say something like, "I’ve thought a lot, and I don’t think we are suitable," or something similar.

Fortunately, it was all just his wild imagination.
