I practice martial arts in Konoha

night.

root base.

The white clone looked at Anko, who was lying dead on the spot due to exhaustion of chakra, put away the three freshly baked white Zetsu, and walked out of the laboratory.

Whoosh!

A figure appeared instantly.

"Master Neji, what's the matter with calling me here?"

Hinata Ryoichi had an indifferent look on his face, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.

The white clone didn't feel dissatisfied, "The Hyuga clan should have already taken action because of the Byakugan Transfer Seal. Let's talk about the specific situation."

"Master Neji, please forgive me for not being able to follow your orders. I am only responsible to Lord Danzo. I will not disclose information to anyone before receiving orders from Lord Danzo."

Hinata Ryoichi's expression became increasingly unkind.

"It seems that you haven't realized that you have been abandoned by Danzo-sensei."

The white clone looked at him deeply.

"impossible……"

Hinata Ryoichi's aloof attitude finally couldn't hold up any longer.

White clone: ​​"An Anzi is known only to one person."

"You failed to attack me last time and exposed your identity in front of me. To Teacher Danzo, your value has been greatly reduced. It will be a matter of time before you become an outcast."

"Do you think you are the only one who has hidden secrets hidden in Hinata by Mr. Danzo?"

"Actually, you know it well, you just don't want to admit it."

Hinata Ryoichi remained silent.

White clone: ​​"We are both members of the Hyuga clan, and I don't want to embarrass you. You don't have to be loyal to me. As long as you report information about the Hyuga clan to me on time in the future, I don't mind helping you when you encounter difficulties in the future. .”

"Master Neji is worthy of being Danzo-sama's only disciple!"

Hinata Ryoichi looked at him with quite complicated eyes.

"Under the instruction of the clan, all the Hyuga clan members with Byakugan have memorized the Byakugan transfer seal technique. Among them, the jounin and some chuunin have already learned it, and the remaining chunin and genin are expected to learn it within a month. Everyone can learn it, and there is no stopping Hinata from sharing the power of the Byakugan with all of Konoha... But I don't understand why you gave the Byakugan and Transfer Seal technique to the Clan. That would further expand the Clan's power. !”

The white clone smiled.

"Of course I have my purpose, you don't need to know."

"As long as you know..."

"There is no free lunch in the world. Sooner or later the Hyuga clan will regret it because of their stupidity and greed!"

◎

laugh!

The white clone waved his palm like a knife.

Several black snakes that flew towards him were split into two in an instant and turned into broken runes that disappeared out of thin air.

looked up.

I saw that this dark cave and even the entire cursed space seemed to fade at this time, becoming dim and transparent, giving people an illusory feeling.

"almost!"

really.

His voice did not fall.

An eerie and terrifying aura surged from the end of the cave.

"Ow..."

The sounds like dragons and snakes came and went, getting closer and closer.

boom!

The cave exploded.

A huge white snake with eight heads and a tail appeared.

"The art of Baqi..."

The white clone's expression became serious.

"Roar……"

The eight snake heads roared in unison.

Sixteen yellow vertical pupils stared at the white clone, filled with murderous intent, but they did not launch an attack immediately.

Standoff for a moment.

One of the snakeheads opened his mouth wide and slowly spit out a naked person.

"Hiss..."

"I didn't expect that Konoha, which was a ball of stagnant water, would give birth to a genius like Neji-kun, and he would find the weakness of the Curse Seal of the Sky so quickly..."

The white clone pretended to be surprised: "Senior Orochimaru, do you know me?"

"Ha ha……"

"I saw it in Hongdou's body. You used that unique magical chakra to activate the curse seal four times in a row, releasing a large amount of chakra, making the curse seal fall into an extremely weak state, so you could take advantage of it and easily break the curse seal. Self-defense, invading the core of the curse seal."

"Neji-kun, you are a very thoughtful person."

"The little guys at Genbe call you Neji-sama. Could it be that you are Danzo's disciple?"

"I didn't expect that old guy Danzo to take on such an interesting disciple as you."

Orochimaru said with an "I admire you" look on his face.

"Since Orochimaru-senpai and Danzo-sensei are old friends..."

The white clone smiled slightly.

"Then, can Senior Orochimaru enlighten me on the true secret of the Heavenly Curse Seal?"

"Si Liu..." Orochimaru licked his lips, "Is just a cursed seal from the sky enough to satisfy you?"

"Neji-kun, the rotten Konoha leaves will only limit your vision!"

"Come and cooperate with me!"

"I can give you unimaginable forbidden power!"

"Come, come and explore the nature of ninjutsu and the truth of the world with me!"

The white clone's head was covered with black lines: "Senior Orochimaru, I am four years old this year, and it is no longer useful to me to deceive a three-year-old!"

"Ningji-kun, don't refuse so hastily. Maybe you still can't understand it now, but as long as you are on the road of pursuing the truth, one day in the future, you will understand the fragility of life... I hope you can remember, my The door is always open to you!"

Orochimaru's tone had never been so sincere as it was today.

The white clone frowned: "It seems that Senior Orochimaru is unwilling to hand over the secret of the Curse Seal of Heaven!"

"Hum hum……"

Orochimaru's body slowly retracted deep into the snake's throat.

"If you want it, just come and get it yourself!"

boom!

The eight snake heads suddenly bit the white clone.

◎

After half an hour.

The white clone groaned and took back the fingers that were pressing on the back of Anko's neck.

"How...ahem...have you seen the core of the curse seal?"

Anko asked weakly.

At this time, her face was as pale as paper, and she was lying softly on the experimental table, looking extremely ill.

Overnight, the curse seal was activated four times in succession.

She felt like her body and soul had been hollowed out!

"Ah."

The white clone was deep in thought when he heard the words and responded softly.

"Is it Orochimaru's consciousness?"

Anko asked again.

"To be precise, it should be Orochimaru's chakra spirit clone!"

"What chakra spirit clone?!!"

Hongdou had a classic expression of a scumbag who didn't know how serious he was.

"You can understand it as a soul clone made of high-purity chakra."

The white clone explained.

Originally, he thought that what Orochimaru hid in the cursed seal was a soul fragment or something like that, but the moment he saw Orochimaru appear in the cursed seal space, he realized that it was not a soul fragment at all, but something like that. After the chakra becomes a spiritual body, the spiritual body separates.

Orochimaru did not divide his soul, but changed his chakra into a strange nature - spirit.

Chakra is a kind of energy that can be called snake oil.

It can evolve into any known matter and energy such as wind, thunder, water, fire, and earth.

This naturally includes the soul.

and so.

spirit.

It can also be a change in chakra properties.
