Naruto: My and Obito's mutual redemption

"Yuyan, um...thank you."

Kakashi walked on the road with his head down. He was in a complicated mood. Although he had always wanted to see his father, he had never had the chance. Now he could finally see his father. Yuyan and the others probably went back to the village just to take him with them...

I was touched, but also a little nervous. I didn't protect my companions well, and even let them "die". My dad would be disappointed...

In fact, Kakashi cannot be blamed at all. The situation at that time was indeed very strange. While more enemies appeared on the front battlefield, there were still so many troops left behind...

Although there are no spectacular mountains in Tianzhiguo, the vast plains and large tracts of farmland stretch as far as the eye can see. The scenery is still quite good.

The journey was not too far. They walked along a small path in the field and arrived at a small village.

According to Orochimaru, this village is one of his bases. He built this place and a secret base underground, and later some villagers gradually gathered here and started living.

"The village chief is here..."

"Hello, village chief!"

Several people followed Orochimaru to the village. Although the environment was a bit simple, Yu Yan could still see that these people had happy smiles on their faces. It was obvious that Orochimaru managed this small village quite well.

Yuyan felt a little strange. It seemed that building a village was a little early...

Seeing the three children looking a little confused, Orochimaru explained, "Don't worry, they are all ordinary people who live here voluntarily. I can protect them to a certain extent, and they can also effectively serve as a disguise for my base."

Obito looked at Orochimaru's amiable face and nodded thoughtfully. It seemed that Orochimaru was not as scary as he had imagined. Although it was a bit weird with his dead-white face and unusual purple eyeshadow...

After they came to a hidden cave at the edge of the village, Orochimaru formed a seal with his fingers and removed the camouflage that blocked the view. Unlike illusion camouflage, which is easy to see through, it may be similar to Iwagakure's "camouflage".

After passing the familiar twists and turns, they arrived at an open underground space. Unlike the base in Konoha, it was much brighter now. The playground-like area in front of them was probably used for training. Yu Yan was a little surprised. When did this snake start paying the electricity bill?

The moment Kakashi entered this space, he saw several people fighting on the training ground. Kakashi's pupils shrank, and then he couldn't move away. On the training ground, a silver-haired figure wearing a mask was fighting seven or eight people alone with a short knife. Although these people were very strong, the combined attack of several people was useless, and they all fell down in a moment...

"Father...?"

Seeing the same silver hair as his own and the familiar sword skills, Kakashi couldn't help but shout out.

This person is none other than the "White Fang of Konoha" whom the three children had not seen for more than two years: Hatake Sakumo.

Sakumo had already noticed it when Kakashi and the others came in, but as a ninja, he must not be distracted by changes outside of the battle when fighting the enemy. After knocking down all the opponents, Sakumo came in front of them in an instant, slowly took off his mask, and revealed that familiar smile.

"Finally we meet again, Kakashi, and little Yuhiko and little Obito. You've all grown a lot taller..."

Although Kakashi always had a dull expression, he couldn't hold back tears after finally seeing his most admired father again. If Yu Yan hadn't thought of a way, he would never have been able to see his father again...

Obito and Yuhiko felt a little sad when they saw Kakashi's true feelings... Without saying anything to interrupt him, they just stood aside and watched this heartwarming scene of father and son meeting each other.

After a while, Orochimaru reminded: "Yuyan-kun, let them talk for a while, let's go to the laboratory first, I have some good things to show you..."

Yuyan nodded, took Obito's hand and called to Sakumo and Kakashi: "Uncle Sakumo and Kakashi, you guys can chat first, we'll go to the laboratory first and have dinner together later~"

Hearing this, Kakashi suddenly bent down and bowed deeply.

"Amihiko, Obito, thank you. And Lord Orochimaru, thank you for taking care of my father all the time..."

"Oh, it's okay, no need to thank me for this, we are friends~" Yuyan smiled and waved to Kakashi. Obito smiled foolishly and scratched his head.

Orochimaru didn't say anything, just nodded silently, with his signature smile on his lips, looking a little weird.

"Then see you later~"

The two followed Orochimaru and continued to walk towards the interior of the base... Gradually, they found that the light became dimmer the further they went inside. Yu Yan couldn't help but complain in his heart, thinking that he was wrongly blamed for paying the electricity bill. Isn't this still the same as before?

Inside the laboratory, bottles and jars were everywhere, filled with a mess of tissues from unknown creatures. Various experimental instruments emitted a faint blue light, and the atmosphere was quite gloomy.

After coming to a door on the inside of the room, Orochimaru stopped and said, "This is where I conduct embryo experiments. It should be considered successful at the moment. If it is convenient for Yuyan-kun in the next few days, you can complete the reincarnation ceremony with me..."

Yu Yan nodded. This was one of the agreed contents of the cooperation and he had no objection.

After Orochimaru unlocked several seals, the door slowly opened. What came into view was a huge culture chamber filled with a lot of nutrient solution. A body was floating in the nutrient solution, and it looked like a boy of about ten years old. Yuyan had some impression of this body. It was probably a bit similar to Orochimaru when he was a child, but the hair was aqua blue, a bit like the hair color of Mitsuki in Boruto.

Obito and Yu Yan looked at the body and curiously looked at the various indicators on the screen in front of them. As expected of Orochimaru, all the data were very detailed. Obito was confused and couldn't understand any of the data. Although Yu Yan could roughly understand some of it, he was still a little dazzled.

"This body has no soul, which is more complicated than ordinary androids. It is difficult to say where the soul comes from during the formation of life. I have spent a lot of effort to avoid the natural generation of the soul..."

Orochimaru looked at the body with hope. He worked day and night for immortality. Now that this hope was gradually becoming a reality, his excitement was self-evident. He also wanted to gain more knowledge, and even finally understand all the truths in the world...

"You are really amazing..."

Yu Yan sighed from the bottom of his heart, he really made it. Through his observation, this body itself does not have any particularly strong bloodline ability. If you insist, it is possible to obtain Wood Release through White Zetsu. However, the vitality is extremely strong, which is somewhat similar to his own ability...

Orochimaru saw the doubt in Yuyan's eyes and continued to introduce: "This body is mostly made of White Zetsu cells, and of course there are also some cells from your body. But don't worry, this is only fused after the body is successfully cultivated, so there is no genetic information from you. Don't worry, the genetic information used is my own."

Yu Yan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. If he had his genetic information, would Orochimaru have to call him dad after his reincarnation? That scene was so weird that it was unimaginable.

Orochimaru groaned at this point, staring at Yuyan in confusion.

"?"

Yu Yan didn't know what he was thinking about, and also had a question mark on his forehead.

"It's like this... Your body is really strange. Whether it's your powerful soul power that comes from nowhere or your almost infinite vitality... When I was doing research later, I found that... the soul power in your cells is constantly affecting the cells themselves. I have never seen such a situation before."

Orochimaru's words startled Yu Yan. He had felt that the soul power affected his body before. Although it was a little slow, it did have a certain effect. Now that he had received Orochimaru's precise data to confirm it, he had to be more convinced of this.

"That is to say, your body has infinite possibilities in the future. I am becoming more and more interested in you. This characteristic of yours makes your cells much more active than ordinary people. The current maximum number of divisions is estimated to be about three times that of ordinary humans..."

"..."

Orochimaru's bombs come one after another. What does it mean to be much more active? Several times the number of splits? Yu Yan roughly understands what it means, but is a little unsure...

"Does this mean that..."

Orochimaru took over Yuyan's question, smiled sinisterly, and said fanatically: "That means your natural lifespan may be several times that of an ordinary person... hehehe, and it's not there at the beginning. What happened when you disappeared before?"

The more Yu Yan thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong...

"Doesn't that mean that after my cells leave the body, they can still...remain active, and even continue to be affected by the main body?"

Seeing that Yu Yan didn't answer Orochimaru's question directly, he didn't plan to ask any more questions. None of that mattered. The most important "experimental material" was right in front of him. He believed that he would be able to figure out the secret of Yu Yan's body later.

Yu Yan felt a little complicated. If he could live for a long time, what would happen to Obito in the future? If he didn't have Obito to accompany him, how would he spend his long life? And it was too incredible that cells could still maintain a certain activity after being separated from the body...

Wait... Yu Yan suddenly realized a problem. His heart was given to Obito. Does that mean that the part he gave away can also affect Obito himself...

After thinking of this possibility, Yu Yan immediately asked: "Is it the same for Obito? Can you study it now? Let me see the results quickly..."

Orochimaru looked puzzled. He didn't know what Yuyan suddenly said. But when Obito was mentioned, Orochimaru also felt very strange. This kid seemed to be more alive than before... At first, I thought that standing here with Yuyan affected the people around him, but now it seems that it is not that simple.

"Obito... Sorry, can I draw a tube of your blood?" Yuyan looked a little anxious, with worry in his eyes.

Obito didn't understand the high-level conversation the two were having, he just knew that Yuyan might have discovered something, so without saying a word he rolled up his sleeves, took the syringe handed to him by Orochimaru, and stabbed it directly into his fair arm.

After collecting fresh blood, Orochimaru immediately began to study it. The two sat on the sofa and waited, Yuyan leaned on Obito's shoulder and closed his eyes to think.

I hope Obito can be like me and always be with me...
