Chapter 54: The Core of the Book (Part 2) (First Update)

After thinking, Orochimaru continued: "Just like when Uchiha Sasuke betrayed Konoha. In Naruto's memories, the most profound thing isn't the Uchiha Clan Massacre. What he found most profound was Sasuke abandoning their bond, abandoning Team 7 and Konohagakure, and becoming a Missing-nin for the sake of power!"

"So when creating this memory, we don't need to emphasize the Uchiha Clan Massacre, but rather emphasize Uchiha Sasuke's betrayal of the village. Then, it would be much simpler to operate. Just have Uchiha Sasuke defect at the corresponding time. As for the reason, there can be many: Konoha's environment wasn't good, he was angry at being scolded by his parents and ran away from home, or even just being bored in Konoha and wanting to get some air—anything is fine as long as people believe it. Of course, the reason is for you to think of; I don't care about that!"

Everyone rolled their eyes at Orochimaru. They all knew Orochimaru was joking. If they really used these reasons for Uchiha Sasuke's defection, the Five Kage would never be able to hold their heads up in the ninja world again. And how low would Naruto's IQ have to be to believe such a reason?

But after Orochimaru's explanation, everyone understood completely. As long as those events that made Naruto's heart ache happen at the same time in the future, it would be fine!

For example, the Nine-Tails Incident: since Naruto hasn't been born yet, it naturally doesn't need to happen. In that case, Minato and Kushina can take care of Naruto normally, without letting him go through those painful memories!

For another example, the subsequent attack on Konoha by the Sand Village and Sound Village: the protagonists of this event are all sitting here in the meeting! It's even simpler to operate! At that time, what Naruto found most profound in the memory orb was the Third's death and the Gaara incident! Now, the Third Hokage is sitting in the conference room smoking and listening to Orochimaru, who will kill him in the future, report on things!

When the time comes, just have the two of them cooperate to act out a play and let the Third fake his death. As for whether he falls to his death, chokes on smoke, or accidentally stabs himself, it doesn't matter, because Naruto is fighting Gaara at that time and doesn't know how the Third died. So the two of you can discuss it; as long as the result is the same as the memory in the memory orb, it will be fine!

And Orochimaru also said that it's not necessary for Naruto to re-experience all those heart-wrenching memories in the memory orb! Of course, the more common memories, the better, but some that are too difficult to operate, they can give up, such as the Fourth Shinobi World War...

This way, they can exclude those that are troublesome to operate and only complete the simple ones! As long as the 'dead people' don't appear before Naruto completely absorbs the memory orb and is resurrected, it will be fine. As for whether others will cooperate? Just look at the people sitting here: the Five Kage, the future Five Kage, the mastermind behind the Akatsuki, the initiator of the Fourth Shinobi World War, the righteous, the villains—they are all here worrying about Uzumaki Naruto's resurrection. You know whether they will cooperate...

And Naruto has friends all over the ninja world. Refuse? Maybe even your family would look down on you... Not to mention that these things themselves aren't difficult. The ninja world owes Naruto more than just one life! And with Naruto standing in front in the future, it will be much easier to deal with the Otsutsuki!

"There is another problem. We all know some of Naruto's experiences, but we didn't grow up with him. We have no way of grasping exactly what he went through!"

At this time, Uchiha Obito stood up and said! Only then did everyone realize that what Obito said was indeed a problem.

Although those experiences can be consulted with people around him, it wouldn't be accurate!

For example, when fighting Haku and Zabuza in the Land of Waves, Kakashi was dueling Zabuza, Haruno Sakura was protecting Tazuna, and Uchiha Sasuke was fainted on the side. And the opponent, Haku, wasn't a Reborn one. As for asking Kurama? Forget it! To this day, he hasn't paid any attention to Minato and his wife... Since those who know won't say, and those who want to say don't know, then there's no way to reenact it!

And when Naruto was young, no one cared about him at all... It was hard enough to have Umino Iruka at school, but he only knew about Naruto's time at school. Once out of school, he couldn't guarantee he knew everything! As for Hatake Kakashi? He even threw Naruto's Chunin Exam training to Ebisu, so don't count on him. And his classmate Uchiha Sasuke was better; the two were in a competitive relationship, so he knew a bit more, but at that time his eyes were more on revenge and improving his strength, so he was unlikely to notice these things, and later he defected! It's estimated that he can't be counted on either. As for Haruno Sakura, Kakashi thought about what she was like at that time and shook his head. If it were Sasuke, he would definitely know a lot. As for Naruto... Hyuga Hinata was very concerned about Naruto, but the two weren't in the same class... So it was also hard to gain anything! And Kurama~~ still the same, he doesn't bird you!

"Regarding this point, you can rest assured," Orochimaru seemed to be prepared. "This memory orb can be copied. I have successfully copied one using the chakra of Kurama, Minato, and Kushina. When the time comes, it can be taken out for the whole ninja world to watch! And the original one can be used to resurrect Naruto!"

Hearing Orochimaru's words, everyone's last bit of doubt disappeared!

"And I also discovered a type of chakra in Naruto's memory orb that doesn't belong to Uzumaki Naruto or the Nine-Tails. I suspect that someone repaired Naruto's memory orb. After checking, I found that this chakra should belong to the Sage of Six Paths!"

"Naruto's memories were definitely viewed from the first-person perspective before, but maybe they were modified by the Sage of Six Paths when he traveled here. Now, they will be viewed from the third-person perspective, and he can even hear everyone's inner voices! This makes it even more convenient for us to restore them."

Orochimaru and Kabuto were definitely copying some, so he had seen some. As for the original memories, one could imagine that since they were Naruto's memories, they were definitely from Naruto's first-person perspective!

Regarding the Sage of Six Paths knowing about the Reborn ones, no one present was surprised. The Sage of Six Paths is responsible for monitoring the ninja world; it would be strange if he didn't know about such a big thing!

"Then can we copy a few more? That way we can study them slowly!" Nara Shikaku thought for a moment and said!

"That won't work. I just said that there is the Sage of Six Paths' chakra inside. The reason we could copy one was because there was extra Sage of Six Paths chakra in that Naruto's orb! Now there is no extra, so there's no way." ===== CHAPTER 56 =====
