Chapter 404: So you also know this forbidden technique is inhumane

"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 doesn't know how the Second Hokage managed to create so many of them.

The quantity is so vast that even Orochimaru hasn't gone through them all.

He only picks the ones he feels interested in to research.

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

"What, do you want to research it?"

Senju Xingye glanced at him and then said.

"Telling you is fine, after all, it's not a technique you would be interested in."

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

Orochimaru realized.

He remembered this technique.

When he saw it back then, he was still wondering why someone would create such a technique that kills a thousand enemies while suffering a thousand losses.

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

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

An Impure World Reincarnation body cannot die; it can perfectly serve as a suicide bomber 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 sigh.

He became slightly interested.

But not much.

He cares more about the continuation of life.

After participating in many 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 one's own ninjas; just one dead person is enough to turn the tide of a battlefield."

Orochimaru has to admire Senju Tobirama's thinking.

But he also has to acknowledge Senju Tobirama's creativity.

However, it is clear that as a junior of the Senju clan, Senju Xingye has no desire to follow the senior's line of thought.

Even Orochimaru has no intention of learning the Mutually Multiplying Explosive Tags.

Orochimaru feels this behavior is a complete waste.

If one were to awaken those famous powerhouses of 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 progress on the Impure World Reincarnation research? Is it usable yet?"

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 Xingye was somewhat disappointed.

But he could understand.

"Since that's the case, remember to give me a shout when you have results."

Senju Xingye gave a greeting and turned to leave.

Behind him, Orochimaru snorted coldly and said.

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

Senju Xingye turned back, revealing a brilliant smile.

"Of course, it's not just that."

"I also plan to have Water Release ninjas irrigate rice fields, and Earth Release ninjas renovate land, modify roads, and things like that."

"And the most critical thing is, aren't you curious about the knowledge held in the minds of these Impure World Reincarnation bodies?"

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

For Orochimaru, knowledge is the most important thing.

It is also the motivation for his research.

The more one knows, the more one realizes one's 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 to complete it, it will still take a long time.

But Orochimaru soon discovered a problem.

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

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

If this problem isn't solved, Senju Xingye's proposal is completely meaningless.

Senju Xingye rolled his eyes and said.

"Why is the first thing you think of such a cruel method?"

"Can't you use a gentler approach?"

Orochimaru looked at Senju Xingye with a gaze seeking instruction.

"For example?"

"For example, fulfilling someone's last wish or something."

Senju Xingye said.

"After all, not everyone has no regrets before they die; if one can make up for their regrets in life, perhaps they would be willing to talk."

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

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

Subsequently, Orochimaru couldn't help but sigh.

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

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

Senju Xingye rolled his eyes.

"If you want to find someone, find the Second Hokage; who told him to create such an inhumane forbidden technique."

So you also know this forbidden technique is inhumane?

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

Orochimaru couldn't help but mutter in his heart. ===== CHAPTER 408 =====
