sough...

The leaves rustled in the breeze, and the bright morning light scattered golden light through the dewdrops.

The dense jungle is quiet and peaceful, and everything seems peaceful, but in the lush atmosphere, there are places where the sun cannot shine.

The dark underground laboratory is filled with a faint smell of decay. This secret base close to Konoha has welcomed its new owner since it was abandoned by Orochimaru.

The dim light reflected the dappled spots in the laboratory.

Even though electric lights had already appeared during the Second Ninja War, now that the Third Ninja War has come to an end, the dim light has not changed much.

There were some water droplets hanging on the walls of the basement, and the humid air made people feel uncomfortable. Tsukimi Kiri sighed. The reason why Orochimaru gave up here was that on the one hand, the equipment here could not keep up with the times, and on the other hand, the environment may be too bad. Come on.

About a week ago, Orochimaru, who was a disciple of the Third Hokage and one of the Sannin of Konoha, defected on the spot after being exposed for secretly conducting cruel human experiments.

Although Tsukimi Kiri, who is familiar with the plot of Naruto, knew that this kind of thing might happen a long time ago, when the incident actually happened, Tsukimi Kiri, who was a disciple of Orochimaru on the surface and an assistant and minion secretly, still felt that this was It happened really suddenly...

Unlike Anko, who is also a disciple of Orochimaru, although Anko has seen Orochimaru conduct human experiments, she cannot accept that part of her memory was sealed by Orochimaru, and the relationship between them is considered a normal teacher-student relationship.

But Tsukimi Tong is different. He has no right to refuse to accept it, and he knows too many things.

If liquidated afterwards, Anko could easily pass through even the memory probe, but Tsukimi Tong would never be able to escape.

As a time traveler, when he opened his eyes, he was among the dead, and he didn't even know who his parents were.

Although he was lucky enough to be adopted by Konoha and trained as a ninja, he had ordinary talent, no blood inheritance, and no background. He was caught up in the Third Ninja War at the wrong time. He spent all his energy just staying alive.

The strong dominate the world, while the weak are dominated by the world. Having seen too much death, and being used to being helpless, Tsukimi Tong, who has nothing, has long been assimilated by the world.

Tsukimi Kiri graduated from the ninja school at the age of seven and was recruited to participate in the Third Ninja War and conduct secret activities.

In the past ten years, the captain has changed one after another, and his companions have fallen one after another. He can survive not because he is strong, but because he can survive and endure.

As a time traveler, Tsukimi Tong's mature outlook on life makes him have no intention of dedicating himself to Konoha or sacrificing for the mission. He just wants to live, and he firmly believes that only those who are alive can have everything.

He had watched his teammates fall. He had tried hard, struggled, been injured, and bled, but in the end nothing could be done. Others chose to die generously with the guilt of mission failure, but he escaped, and he wanted to live. .

Compared with accepting death calmly, wanting to live is actually the most difficult thing.

If you can't become a hero, you can easily become a sinner. The entire team was wiped out. Although Tsukimi Kiri survived, he was not only seriously injured and lay there for half a year, but also because of this escape incident, he was almost deprived of the qualification to be a Konoha ninja. .

Don't think that losing your identity as a ninja is a trivial matter. Sometimes losing your identity means losing your value, and losing your value means you need to be dealt with. Konoha has dark parts and roots. Behind the glamor, there is darkness and depth. .

Fortunately, after escaping, he also brought back enough valuable information to allow himself to escape.

Fortunately, he was lucky enough to come into contact with Orochimaru during the treatment of his serious injury.

Fortunately, with his knowledge in his previous life and his accumulation in this life, he successfully demonstrated his worth and was accepted as a disciple by Orochimaru.

Although he has witnessed Orochimaru's cruelty, is well aware of his sins, and has even been immersed in fear of him for a long time, Tsukimi Kiri is still grateful to him over the years.

Perhaps Orochimaru is a careerist who commits many evil deeds, but in terms of teaching his disciples, Orochimaru is definitely the best mentor, and due to the death of his former disciple Senju Nawaki, Orochimaru is undoubtedly more attentive to the safety of his disciples.

Both of them lamented the fragility of life, and both had the desire for ninjutsu and the pursuit of immortality. They had similar ideas and feelings, and their like-mindedness was to some extent closer than the relationship between master and disciple.

And this is also a large part of the reason why Tsukimi Tong can survive until now.

It has been more than nine years since he graduated from the ninja school. From a newcomer who only knew the three kaya techniques, to a cannon fodder who only dared to throw shurikens a hundred meters away on the battlefield, relying on Orochimaru's resources, Tsukimi Kiri has grown. too much.

Although he is still only a chuunin due to talent limitations, the invisible strength he has accumulated through silent research over the years has made him no less powerful than Orochimaru.

Orochimaru likes to collect and study ninjutsu, and there are more than a thousand ninjutsu compiled and memorized by Tsukimi Kiri alone.

These ninjutsu ranged from earth, fire, feng shui, to yin and yang escape, and even several forbidden techniques. Tsukimi Tong secretly recorded and researched all of them.

Although his physique is only compatible with the water attribute, and he has the time and ability to master very few ninjutsu, the analysis and experimentation of thousands of ninjutsu have made ninjutsu basically no secret to him.

In the first few years, Orochimaru still cherished the resources of Ninjutsu a little bit. Since he devoted himself to the Fuzo Reincarnation and the Earth Reincarnation, those ordinary Ninjutsu have lost their value in the eyes of the opponent.

And this was also the reason why Orochimaru turned a blind eye to Tsukimi Kiri's secret actions.

The love for Ninjutsu is a ninja's instinct. In the past, King Orochi has also been committed to collecting Ninjutsu. In Tsukimi Kiri, he seems to see the shadow of his past, which is why he is particularly tolerant of him.

As long as it doesn't touch the forbidden technique of reincarnation that he is studying, everything else is just trivial matters, and Yue Mitong, who is rigorous in work and has a very strong learning ability, is indeed a qualified assistant.

After Tsukimi Kiri became Orochimaru's disciple, the first ninjutsu he mastered was shadow clone. It was not a forbidden technique with multiple shadow clones, but a pure B-level ninjutsu shadow clone technique.

Without Naruto's huge chakra, even if Tsukimi Kirito has life science, it may not be of any use. Just sharing the large base of chakra can overwhelm his life, so ordinary shadow clones are the best for him. choose.

After all, the characteristics of shadow clones are equally applicable to ordinary shadow clones and multiple shadow clones.

Shadow clones are chakra entities, have self-awareness, and can also feedback experience back to the main body, so even ordinary shadow clones are worth more than many A-level ninjutsu alone.

Since mastering the shadow clones, Yue Mitong has always maintained one or two shadow clones to study and study together as long as there is no mission to reincarnate. With the experience of two lives and the bonus of the shadow clones, although he is only sixteen years old now, The accumulated foundation is not much inferior to anyone in the ninja world.

Of course, Yue Jitong also paid a heavy price behind this accumulation. Without a bug-like physique, this kind of high-intensity study had already overtaxed his body. Even if he took medicine all year round, he could feel that his physique was getting worse.

Although the best case scenario is that he can only live to be thirty years old, Tsukimi Tong has no complaints.

Any gain has to be paid for, and this is the awareness that everyone should have.

And everything in the current situation is under his control. As long as his experimental plan can succeed, not only the problem of life span can be solved, but even the physique and talent may undergo earth-shaking changes.

The origin of ninja civilization comes from Kaguya Otsutsuki who swallowed the fruit of the sacred tree, so the closer you are to Kaguya's bloodline, the easier it is to become a strong person.

Even if there are geniuses like the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato among civilian ninjas, they will still be inferior to those with excellent bloodline.

Bloodline and talent are essential. Both can determine the lower limit of strength to some extent, but the upper limit of strength requires a combination of the two.

The first Hokage had blood and talent, so he became the God of Ninja. The fourth Hokage, who is still active in the ninja world and is called the Golden Flash, has talent but no blood, but he is likely to die in the night of the Nine-Tails Troubles in the future.

The Kyuubi is almost everyone's nightmare in the ninja world, but to the first Hokage, it was nothing more than a pet.

The strength produced by the combination of talent and blood is by no means as simple as one plus one equals two.

Uchiha Itachi was only five or six years old now. After Orochimaru witnessed his talent, he realized how cheap his reputation as a genius was.

Even though he has been praised by the third generation of Sarutobi as a rare genius in decades, facing Uchiha Itachi who has talent and blood, his efforts are like a joke.

Itachi Uchiha's talent and growth rate were beyond the reach of Orochimaru in his lifetime. It happened that the latter was also conducting research on immortal reincarnation, and his coveting of Itachi's body reached its peak as soon as he appeared.

The power of blood inheritance is so charming and desirable.

The bloodline can be changed, and the bloodline limit can also be obtained, but the defective products produced by the experiment cannot enter Orochimaru's eyes.

Birth cannot be chosen, but the body can be taken. The strong inner feeling makes Orochimaru devote himself enthusiastically to the research of reincarnation. And some research results such as cell activation, wood escape blood transplantation, curse seal and other research results that were previously devoted to research, It was also slowly absorbed by Tsukimi Tung.

Standing on the shoulders of giants, you can stand higher and see farther.

The results of Orochimaru's many years of research are part of Tsukimi Tong's opportunity for his own transformation.

In the ninja world, the weak are unable to help themselves, and no one does not desire power.

When he met Orochimaru, Tsukimi Kiri was no longer willing to accept the fate of cannon fodder. From then on, he had an idea in his mind, and after nearly ten years of accumulation, he risked his life to turn the idea into a plan step by step. And gradually improve and realize it bit by bit.

The collision of different civilizations gave Yue Mi Tong extraordinary understanding and talent. On the way to becoming a strong man, what he lacked was resources and blood.

The Flying Thunder God can be said to be the ninjutsu ceiling of non-bloodline ninjas. The reason why Namikaze Minato became a nightmare on the battlefield and was known as the golden flash relies on the Flying Thunder God's technique.

For Tsukimi Kiri, regardless of whether he has the space talent to learn Flying Thunder God, Konoha's protection of Flying Thunder God alone makes it impossible for him to meet him, let alone practice.

The most obvious manifestation of bloodline is the Blood Successor Limit, and the powerful Blood Successor Limit is the ceiling of the power of the ninja world, just like the Sharingan and Wood Release. The terrifying power of the two is still sought after by countless people.

Even Danzo and Orochimaru at the root of Konoha have been secretly conducting research on Wood Release and the use of Sharingan.

But this kind of thing is not suitable for Tsukimi Tung.

He is a standard civilian template, with a bloodline of one hundred and eighty generations, and he probably doesn't even have many ninjas.

Compared to other genius ninjas, Tsukimi Kiri was far inferior in his innate ability. Although he was able to make up for it in many aspects thanks to Orochimaru, some aspects were simply difficult to achieve.

There have always been rumors in the ninja world that blood successors can be cultivated, but even if he is talented enough to cultivate other attributes to synthesize abilities similar to blood successors, the kind of blood successors that cannot be inherited can only be said to be advanced applications of the art, and cannot be used at all. It's called the blood inheritance limit.

The first criterion for the limit of blood inheritance is heritability. Whether it is dominant inheritance or recessive inheritance, it can be revealed through practice.

In the bloodline that has been spread since the Kaguya period, those who have the bloodline limit talent have it, and those who do not have it do not have it. Things that are integrated into the bloodline genes cannot be achieved through simple cultivation.

Of course, the absence of a blood successor does not mean that one cannot seize the blood successor and use the blood successor. Ordinary ninjas' coveting of the blood successor's limits has not changed since ancient times. Some techniques such as seizing the blood successor ninja's organs and transplanting them into themselves to achieve the ability to use the blood successor have always existed.

But Tsukimi Tong doesn't like that kind of technique very much. Transforming himself into an organ-suturing monster will not only make him an alien and difficult to tolerate in the world, but also have many terrible sequelae. He will even gradually dehumanize his mind. The price is too high. .

Of course, the best thing to do is to be a human being. There are countless ways to gain power, and there are only two ways to go fast or slow. The monster, Tsukimi Tong, really can't do it.

The genes of the human body contain all the secrets of the human body. If you change the genes, you can change everything.

But the information contained in genes is too complex, and even the combined analysis of genes in the past and present worlds is only the tip of the iceberg.

Tsukimi Tong initially wanted to change his bloodline and talent by changing his own genes, but the more he researched, the more impossible he felt.

Cells can also be modified and spliced, but genes are really difficult because genes themselves are a very balanced structure. Once the balance is disturbed by manipulation, it can easily cause irreversible consequences.

If you want to become stronger through independent genetic modification without any side effects, the probability is much smaller than Mars hitting the earth.

Although he rejected the idea of ​​genetic modification, Tsukimi Tong's original plan has been going ahead.

Tsukimi Tong, who has always believed in the theory of biological evolution, believes that natural evolution is the most perfect path to transformation.

Organisms can change themselves and strengthen themselves to adapt to the environment by adapting to the environment. This is absolutely feasible no matter where it is.

Genes can be modified in a targeted manner, but cells can definitely be induced in a targeted manner to change the genetic structure.

And this change is definitely safer and more balanced,

If the restriction of cell division is broken and cells are allowed to evolve for hundreds or thousands of years in a short period of time, then nothing can be changed.

Biological evolution in nature is slow, measured in tens of thousands of years, because of the probabilistic nature of inheritance.

You must know that even if an organism evolves a trait that is more suitable for the environment, the probability that the gene expressing this trait will spread through inheritance to the next generation is very slim.

Large scale, small probability. Only when organisms evolve the same traits on a large scale, and coupled with a small probability, can stable inheritance be gradually formed, and this also leads to the evolution span being too long.

But if a creature can survive forever, its evolution is definitely very obvious.

For a relatively long time, evolutionary efficiency can be compensated for by more direct methods, such as Orochimaru's unfinished cell activation, which is a good solution.

If human cells are allowed to break the division limit and increase the speed of division, even for a short time, it is estimated that they can reach the level of natural evolution that takes a long time in nature.

What Tsukimi Tong has been studying is the natural evolution of the human body.

Compared with natural evolution, corpse reincarnation seems to be a superior choice, but Tsukimi Tong knows that this reincarnation technique is imperfect.

The difference between people lies not only in their bodies, but also in their souls.

The body can be taken away, but the mismatched soul is destined to be repelled.

This mutual repulsion will make it difficult for Orochimaru to stay in a container for too long even if he successfully develops the immortal reincarnation, and it may also have many sequelae.

So he really doesn't like the art of reincarnation very much. After all, he doesn't have any transvestism and doesn't want to experience the life of a big shot.

Natural energy is the basis of all extraordinary powers, and chakra is just the product of the divine tree transforming natural energy.

Ordinary ninjas can refine senjutsu chakra if they can absorb natural energy.

In this era when combat power was relatively stable, sage possessing senjutsu chakra was to some extent the ceiling of combat power in the ninja world.

Tsukimi Tong has always felt that natural energy is the greatest treasure house in the ninja world, so he decided long ago that his transformation path would start with obtaining a fairy body.
