Naruto: The dungeon I developed went viral throughout the entire ninja world.

Chapter 67 The Allure of Science, Mitsuki's Secret

The atmosphere at the Illusion Mirror Dojo was somewhat eerie.

Orochimaru stood in front of the counter, his golden vertical pupils fixed on Roy.

Are you worried I can't afford it?

Orochimaru sneered.

"What I, Orochimaru, want, I always take directly. That's how it is with Sasuke, and it's how it is with your skills."

"You raised Sasuke well, but you can't give him eternity."

"Only I can give him eternal life, allowing him ample time to increase his strength and explore the truth of this world."

Orochimaru became increasingly excited as he spoke, which was also a manifestation of his absolute confidence in the core technology he had mastered.

"Immortality? Are you kidding me?"

Roy couldn't help but laugh, his eyes filled with contempt.

It's like a university professor watching a primary school student who's still playing in the mud.

"You call that low-level ninjutsu, Reanimation Jutsu, immortality? Don't fool yourself."

Orochimaru's expression changed instantly.

His greatest secret is the ability to reincarnate, a technique that extends life by taking over another person's body, thus achieving a kind of immortality.

This secret was known to almost no one except him and Kabuto.

"It has to change its body every three years, just like a snake shedding its skin."

Roy continued.

"What's worse is that you have to endure rejection from your soul every time you are reincarnated."

"The body will decay, and the soul will also be damaged. You must even be constantly on guard against being devoured by the container."

"This parasitic, pathetic existence—you dare call it immortality?"

Aren't you tired?

Orochimaru was completely silenced; what the shopkeeper said was true.

The side effects of the Reincarnation technique have been troubling him.

The agony of his soul being torn apart and the stench of his body gradually decaying kept him awake at night.

"These are things you shouldn't know; you know far too much."

Orochimaru's killing intent surged again, and it felt like he was about to make his move at any moment.

"Wait, wait, what's the rush? Don't make a move yet."

"Want to know what true immortality is, and the perfect Sage Mode?"

"And how to create life that is more perfect than humans."

These words struck Orochimaru's weak spot, which was also his lifelong goal.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Orochimaru frowned.

"Whether it's nonsense or not, see for yourself."

Roy bent down and took a scroll from under the counter.

I tossed it over casually; there was a line of text written on the cover.

Partial Report on the Research of the Artificial Human, Mitsuki

Orochimaru picked up the scroll.

"Artificial humans?"

He smiled dismissively. He had done similar experiments before, but most of them had failed.

He still opened the scroll, but the first glance changed his expression drastically, as if he had seen something incredible—a genetic map.

The double helix structure has been reorganized and edited, and there is even a theoretical model of a perfect immortal mode.

"This...this is..."

Orochimaru's hands began to tremble uncontrollably; he was completely shocked.

He quickly flipped through the scrolls.

The content on each page is different from the existing knowledge system; it is simply ahead of its time.

"This is impossible..."

Orochimaru muttered to himself, becoming more and more excited as he looked.

"These theories are at least fifty years ahead of their time!"

"How did you do that? Is this knowledge and data accurate?"

He looked at these things as if he were seeing the truth itself.

His desire and fervor for the unknown were completely undisguised, to the point that he completely forgot he was there to cause trouble, and the idea of ​​fighting was forgotten.

Now, he's like a pure scientist, eager to go back and immerse himself in experimental research, to figure all of this out as soon as possible.

"I have no reason to play games with you. These things are definitely true, there's no doubt about it."

Roy secretly gloated at Orochimaru's bewildered expression. This was cutting-edge technology; it would be abnormal if he'd seen it before.

"Believe it or not, I believe it. This is technology from the future. Others may not have it; I'm probably the only one who has it."

Roy continued to deceive him.

"Instead of carrying out some kind of destruction plan in this broken village, we should be stealing Uchiha brats as vessels."

Don't you find exploring these truths more interesting?

"Orochimaru, you should really try to become more capable."

Roy shook his head.

"Your perspective is too narrow."

"They spend all their time staring at the Sharingan, studying all sorts of ninjutsu, and constantly seeking immortality. Little do they know that science and technology are the true productive forces, and the primary productive force at that."

"Once you master these techniques, you can create countless Sharingan, or even a bloodline limit stronger than the Sharingan."

"Think about it carefully, is this something only a true god could do?"

Orochimaru closed the scroll, calming his excited emotions.

His eyes changed, filled with a greedy thirst for knowledge and an interest in Roy.

"What do you want me to do?"

Orochimaru asked.

He's a smart man; there's no such thing as a free lunch.

Since Roy brought out something like this, he must have something in mind.

"Work for me."

Roy was straightforward.

"Be my technical advisor, help me develop some interesting things."

"For example, scientific ninja tools, chakra storage devices. For example... resurrection drugs."

"In exchange."

Roy pointed to the reel.

"I will teach you these techniques step by step, and even provide you with more advanced information."

"For example, the secrets of the Otsutsuki clan."

Otsutsuki.

He had vaguely heard of this name; it was a legend about the origin of the ninja world.

"make a deal."

Orochimaru did not hesitate at all.

He rolled up the scroll and gave a meaningful smile.

"I can't refuse this deal."

"but……"

Orochimaru changed the subject.

"I've already made the arrangements for the Chunin Exams."

"The arrow is on the string, and it must be released."

"I've already reached an agreement with Sunagakure, and Otogakure is ready as well."

"If I stop now, I'll lose all my credibility."

Roy remained silent.

"Do as you please, I didn't tell you to stop."

"Konoha really needs a cleanup."

"Only by smashing down the rotten things can a new order be established."

"and……"

Roy squinted.

"I also want to see the results of Naruto and Sasuke's special training over the past few years."

"Practice makes perfect."

Orochimaru's smile was sinister.

"Roy, you're even more cold-blooded than me."

"Throwing your own students into a meat grinder just to test the results?"

"Same to you."

Roy raised his teacup.

"But I can guarantee..."

Orochimaru walked to the door and looked back.

"I'll give this operation a thorough check."

"Just how much do those little guys you've raised actually amount to?"

"If they die."

"That means they are not worthy of this power."

"This also shows that your judgment is poor."

After saying that, Orochimaru pushed open the door and disappeared into the crowd.

Roy put down his teacup and looked in the direction Orochimaru had left.

"test?"

Roy smiled.

"Orochimaru, you're too confident. Don't end up getting yourself killed."

"After all, the Naruto and Sasuke of today are not the losers who only knew how to shout slogans in the original story."

"They are... pay-to-win players."

Roy opened the system panel.

[New employee recruited: Orochimaru (Unofficial Technical Advisor).]

[Achievement Acquired: Frankenstein's Loyalty.]

[Reward: Scientific Ninja Tool Manufacturing Blueprint x1.]

"good."

Roy nodded in satisfaction.

With Orochimaru as a free source of labor.

You won't have to worry about upgrading your equipment in the future.

"The Chunin Exams..."

Roy looked out the window toward the direction of the Fire Shadow Rock.

"Let's get started."

"I can't wait to see this big show."

"Konoha Collapse?"

"No."

"They are the new generation of Konoha."
