Chapter 278 Death is valuable

   "After inspecting Orochimaru and returning to the village, I will leave the body strengthening surgery to you."

  Heavenly Way Payne said slowly.

  Although he has already seen the strange perception ability of Orochimaru, Nagato does not believe that the other party can keep it open at any time.

  Even if he is himself, he will only use the 'Rain Tiger Freedom Art' when he is in a defensive state.

  Nagato never believes that in terms of stamina, the opponent is stronger than himself, but he is from the Uzumaki clan.

  Therefore, the intelligence system of the Baijue avatar under the masked man should still be usable.

   Obito nodded slightly, "No problem."

   Today, his purpose of coming here to fight the fire has been achieved. After that, he should use the information he obtained from Konoha to scare people, and try to make the conflict between the organization and Konoha break out as soon as possible.

   Finally glanced at the expressionless Payne, Obito sneered in his heart, and was about to leave directly.

   At this time, Payne stopped him.

   "What else do you need?" Obito raised his eyebrows.

   "I heard people say that the reason why Orochimaru's body strengthening surgery has the self-healing ability is that he obtained some results on the corpse of Baijue's clone."

  Tiandao Payne looked at the masked man calmly, and said calmly, "What do you think about this?"

When Obito was watched by Tiandao Payne, his heart skipped a beat, but on the surface he remained calm, "Who said that? It's pure nonsense, what kind of physical strengthening surgery, I heard that Orochimaru had researched it a long time ago .”

   "Indeed, the research on Orochimaru has been going on for a long time, but it took only two years to reduce the death rate of the experimental subjects. As for who told me..."

  Tiandao Payne took a deep look at the masked man, "It's very simple, someone in the organization once participated in the experiment of Orochimaru as an assistant."

   Obito was shocked, and a name appeared in his mind, "Yaoshidou?"

   "That's right, it's him."

  Tiandao Payne said slowly, "According to what Yaoshidou said, you designed the Yunyin Mission to die in the Hyuga Clan's land, after Orochimaru fought with you, you got the body of Baijue clone."

   "Because Pharmacist Doubi defected later, he doesn't know the detailed research process, but one thing can be concluded that such a huge progress is absolutely inseparable from Bai Jue's avatar."

   "Yaoshi Dou learned from Orochimaru and transformed his body step by step from an ordinary ninja to where he is now. I believe what he said."

  Payne narrowed his eyes slightly, "So, let me ask you again..."

   "Does Bai Jue have the ability to heal injuries?"

   "..."

"Ah…"

  Under Tendo Payne’s silent gaze, Obito was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed,

   "Bai Jue naturally has the ability to heal injuries, but only for himself, which stems from their own special constitution."

   "As for how Orochimaru transferred this ability to others, I don't know, and Bai Jue doesn't have this ability either."

   "Oh, is it?" Tiandao Payne was noncommittal, but he didn't dwell on this question any longer, and instead asked, "Then I'll borrow some money from you to help the pharmacist with his research. It shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"what ever."

  Obito's expression instantly became gloomy, and he sneered a few times in his heart.

  Even if he refuses now, he will probably receive a message that a 'Konoha Ninja' has attacked Bai Jue's avatar in a few days.

  But even if there is dissatisfaction in my heart, it is difficult to vent at this time.

   It is a normal operation to hide a hand from an ally, but what should not be, let the other party find out.

   After doing this in front of him, Obito's good mood just now was destroyed in an instant, but when he changed his mind, he split again,

   "Yaoshidou, after all, I don't know anything about Dashe Wan. If you really want to study that kind of physical strengthening surgery, you'd better find some other trustworthy people."

"I will think about it."

   Tiandao Payne's expression remained unchanged, making it impossible to see his thoughts.

   Seeing this, Obito stopped talking and disappeared into the whirlpool.

  After the meeting room was silent for a while, a cold female voice suddenly sounded.

   "The masked man is not telling the truth."

  Xiaonan floated down from the shadow in the corner of the ceiling, "Oshemaru was able to develop that kind of surgery on Baijue, and Baijue's body must be stronger, but he has never mentioned this matter all the time."

  Xiaonan has always been prejudiced against masked people who hide their heads and show their tails. In other words, she is always on guard against any power that threatens Nagato.

"I know."

  Tiandao Payne...or Nagato shook his head and said slowly, "This is a cooperation with each other's thoughts."

In fact, it’s not a bad idea to catch a few Baijue clones for research in private. The reason why Nagato pointed it out is that he really can’t understand the masked man who is clearly using him for his own selfish desires, but still pretends to be for his own good. , is really disgusting.

  Nagato turned to look at Xiaonan, "By the way, is there a suitable candidate for a ninja who is good at body modification and cell surgery?"

   Your research to Baijue Branch is of great importance, and he will naturally not let Pharmacist Dou take over.

  Xiao Nan frowned slightly after hearing this, "I found it after looking for it, but these people are not good at it."

There is the last ninja who plans to carry out terrorist attacks in Konoha, there is the leader of the Yellow Spring Sect who runs an evil religion and intends to set off a rebellion, and there is the Konoha S-class rebel who rebelled against the village because he disliked his lack of strength. call…

  Each character has its own evils, but there is one thing in common, they are not good things.

  After listening to the few people introduced by Xiaonan, Nagato nodded slightly, "As long as the personal ability is passable."

  Looking in the cesspit, you can only find these smelly and hard stones, or dirty maggots, and there is no choice at all.

  However, this is exactly what Nagato hoped.

  Although it is for the peace of the ninja world, it is better to let these greedy and despicable dregs sacrifice their lives than those with lofty ideals.

  He couldn't stand another death of his companion.

  Although Tiandao Payne is expressionless, Xiaonan and Nagato have lived and died together for so long, so he naturally knows what he is thinking, and sighed softly,

   "Nagato, that wasn't your fault."

  Heavenly Dao Payne did not answer, he stared at the darkness ahead without saying a word.

  …

  The border of the Land of Fire.

   Konoha secret fortress base.

   Orochimaru led Kakashi and his party from the treetops to the door, when the Jiraiya inside came out to greet them.

   "Hahaha, Orochimaru, you..."

   Jilai also laughed and went out, just about to curse a few words, but after seeing Dashemaru's current figure clearly, his voice got stuck in his throat, and it took him a long time to say, "Are you... getting shorter?"

  The heights of the two were about the same before, and Zirai was a strong man with a height of 1.9 meters. Although Da Shemaru was a little thin, he was 1.8 meters tall with shoes on.

   In comparison, Orochimaru in front of him will look a little small. 1.7 meters, no... I can only say 1.6 meters and above.

   Hearing Zilai say the same, everyone's eyes fell on Shemaru, and their eyes became a little weird, especially Kakashi and his party.

  Actually, they discovered the change in Orochimaru early in the morning, but after all, he is "Konoha Sannin", and he showed a strong power when he appeared again. Who dare not open his eyes and use this matter to gossip with him.

   That means this person is Zilai.

   Orochimaru's face remained unchanged, "I did the experiment, and there were some small problems."

   This is the first time I have performed the slug splitting technique, and there are some errors in my grasp of body size, but this is just a trivial matter and does not affect my own combat effectiveness.

   Zilai also heard this, but he misunderstood, and said with emotion, "That's right, otherwise you wouldn't have stopped showing up for more than a year."

   As he spoke, he glanced at Kakashi and the others again, "Come in, I have a general understanding of the situation. Afterwards, I will discuss the specifics of the mission with the village liaison, and I need a few of you to go there."

  Kakashi and Uchiha Shinsuke looked at each other and nodded.

   A group of people entered the fortress, and each went to the assigned room to rest, while Orochimaru followed Jiraiya to the meeting room.

   Entering the room, Jiraiya put away the smile on his face, looking a little annoyed, "The Kusanagi are getting bolder and bolder."

   "This is not called boldness, this is called confidence."

  Oshemaru pulled a chair and sat down, with a half-smile and said, "At present, our high-end combat power can't beat the Penn Six Paths of Akatsuki Organization, this is a fact."

  Using the gap in numbers, Konoha is not unable to wear down the Akatsuki organization, but the Third Hokage is obviously unwilling to suffer this loss.

  Since you don't want to confront the tough, you can only suffer from this soft knife, which is just as it should be.

   Kusanagi has the Akatsuki organization as a backer, but in the final analysis, it is not his own strength, and he is also testing Konoha's bottom line. In essence, he is still struggling between the land of earth, the land of thunder, and the land of fire.

   "By the way, I remember Nagato is still your disciple."

  A smile appeared on Orochimaru's face, "Listen to me earlier, maybe sending them to death might be an appropriate approach."

   "You gave them power, but now they seem to suffer even more."

   "Pain... Heh, in the name of pain, this is really... Tsk tsk."

   Bringing up the old matter again, Jiraiya was a little depressed, but he still shook his head, his tone unwavering,

   "Only those three years of teaching, I will never regret it. They are all wonderful children..."

   "Wait." Orochimaru interrupted Jiraiya and said with a smile, "You don't want to say that Nagato is the so-called 'Child of Destiny', do you?"

  Ji Lai was also silent for a moment, then nodded slightly, "It is possible."

   "So... if there is that chance, you may not kill him?"

   Orochimaru twitched the corners of his mouth to both sides, obviously ridiculing, "Let's not mention the Child of Destiny. He does have extremely strong power now. Except for the original Hokage, I am afraid that no one is his opponent."

   "If you still hold such weak thoughts, you will definitely die in his hands."

   "That's why..." Jiraiya's voice suddenly raised a lot, "That's why I need to guide him."

   "Guide, how do you want to guide him?"

  Oshemaru smiled, "I also had a short conversation with the current Nagato. His current goal is to achieve peace in the ninja world with absolute force."

   "Then, Ziraiya, if you want to deny his way, is there a better way to achieve this goal?"

  Zi Lai was also taken aback, opened his mouth, but couldn't speak.

  This question is inconsistent with his long-standing life orientation.

  In the prophecy of the big toad sage, he will meet the "son of destiny" who can change the ninja world and become his teacher.

   And one day later, my own choice will cause the "child of destiny" to make the same choice, and this choice will bring prosperity or destruction to the ninja world.

  The prophecy of the Great Toad Immortal is unclear, and the only thing that can be believed is that it will never go wrong.

   Jilai also thought about this a lot, what is special about him that can affect the "Child of Destiny".

   After much deliberation, there is only the "ninja way" as a ninja, which is the spirit he has carried out all his life.

  However, forbearance and spirituality are all metaphysical thoughts in the final analysis. They do not have clear steps and are not a specific path.

  Therefore, only the 'Child of Destiny' who can find the right path can truly do it.

   It is really difficult for Jiraiya to answer this question.

   "Look, you actually don't know, right?"

  So Orochimaru didn't believe all of this, and denied the so-called prophecy from the beginning.

  In his view, everything needs a process, and it cannot be done overnight.

  Just like in the historical story of the different world told by the lamp god, the first emperor who realized the great unification also wanted to "fend the survivors of the sixth generation".

  To be honest, if Nagato hadn't had Obito behind his back to make calculations, it would not be impossible to rule the ninja world by force.

   Now is not the era of the first Hokage Senju Hashirama.

  To this day, most ninjas put aside their families and regard themselves as ninjas from a certain village. In the future, it is also possible to eliminate nationalities and regard themselves as ninjas of a unified country. This is not a big step.

   But how to put it, Nagato and the others didn't want to work hard in this direction at all.

   Dissatisfied with the first generation of Hokage Senju Hashirama who clearly had the power to end the ninja world, but only established a village, but in the end, what they did was nothing more than picking up the wisdom of others.

  If you haven’t seen it, you can’t imagine what a unified country should be like. Now the direction of their efforts is just a seemingly perfect ‘heaven’.

  Heh... The young people's views are too ideal, they don't know that this thing only exists in dreams and has no possibility of realization.

   What's more, Orochimaru himself has a plan for the future development direction of the ninja world.

   And Zilai is also in it, which can be regarded as a very important part. Instead of letting him be so confused, it is better to do some practical things to support his own career.

  Oshemaru licked his lips, and said to Jiraiya, who was a little downcast,

  "Since you don't know what to do, don't try to teach him, otherwise it will only have the opposite effect."

   "Heh, maybe those disciples of yours will directly kill you with some 'this is the price of ideals'."

   "After all, in their current state, in order to deny their own pain, it is very necessary to prove this awareness."

  Hearing this, Jiraiya suddenly raised his head and said in a surprised tone,

   "So, a few years ago, when you were obsessed with chasing eternal life and almost broke with the old man, were you thinking about these things?"
