Chapter 38 Wood Escape Yamato

42 years of Konoha

"This is the list of experiments for this time!"

The female researcher named Ling handed Orochimaru a list, and Orochimaru handed her an experimental report.

This was the case during this period. Orochimaru would give research reports to Danzo every once in a while, and Danzo would be responsible for finding the materials needed for various experiments for him.

The research base was also moved from its roots to another secret base in Konoha.

After all, that was Danzo's base camp. It was impossible for Orochimaru to put his base there. If anything happened, he could immediately put aside the relationship.

Orochimaru is naturally well aware of his behavior of wanting to enjoy the results without taking risks.

Not that he cared, and he didn't want to conduct research under Danzo's surveillance all day long. At least this way he would have some freedom.

"Huh? Sky burial?"

This is interesting. Unexpectedly, the gears of fate still caused them to meet.

That's right, this is the only person who will survive after fusing Hashirama's cells in the future, Yamato.

In the original work, Orochimaru thought the experiment had failed and gave up on him. Unexpectedly, he relied on his tenacious desire to survive to survive, was discovered by Danzo, and was finally absorbed into the root.

Orochimaru's research on Hashirama's cells is now more in-depth than in the original work, and the success rate of Hashirama's cell fusion potion has been greatly improved.

However, it is not usually displayed, and the experimental report given to Danzo is also a castrated version.

Now that Yamato has a special physique, Orochimaru will naturally go all out.

Not only must he survive successfully, but he may also need to be strengthened in the future.

Thinking of this, Orochimaru began to prepare the potion.

Some time later, a training ground in Konoha.

Minato was sweating profusely while training his ninjutsu, and on a big tree not far from him, Jiraiya was writing something with a wolf pen.

Suddenly, a small white snake climbed onto the tree trunk in front of Jiraiya.

"Fuck, Orochimaru."

Jiraiya was also startled when he saw the little white boy hanging, and he blurted out that it was Orochimaru.

Xiaobai spat out the snake letter at him, and then crawled in one direction.

Jiraiya also frowned when he saw Xiaobai's action.

"What the hell is Orochimaru doing? He's so mysterious."

Whispering, Jiraiya didn't even say hello to Minato and just followed Haku.

After zigzagging to the depths of the dense forest on the edge of Konoha, Jiraiya saw Xiaobai stop and then climb up a tree.

The next moment, a figure suddenly appeared on the thick tree trunk. After a while, the figure was completely revealed. It was Orochimaru.

"I said Orochimaru, is there anything you can't say outside? Do you need to make it so secretive?"

Jiraiya said while picking his nose.

"This matter is of great importance, and I had no choice but to do it!"

Seeing Orochimaru's serious face, Jiraiya also became serious. Orochimaru's expression was rare, so he thought the matter was not simple.

"I need you to help me raise a child!"

As soon as these words came out, Jiraiya was shocked at first, and then incredulous.

"Did you...did you...do something wrong? Why do you have a child?"

Jiraiya was so frightened by this sudden news that he backed away and said hesitantly, holding on to the tree trunk!

Orochimaru saw his reaction and knew that he had misunderstood.

"This child is not mine. I can't tell you his origins yet. It's not convenient for me to raise him here."

Hearing what Orochimaru said, Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned again and asked in confusion:

"Why is it inconvenient? Don't you still have Shizune and Tsunade? Why don't you just let them take care of them? How can I, a person who has never taken care of children, take care of them well?"

Orochimaru knew that his simple words alone could not convince Jiraiya, and the friendship between the two did not reach the point of casually helping to raise the child.

After pondering for a moment, Orochimaru spoke again:

"He can use wood escape!"

A few simple words made Jiraiya's mind roar again, Mu Dun, what is that? That is the unique blood inheritance limit of the first Hokage.

Since the death of the first Hokage, no one in the ninja world can use wood escape anymore, except of course the secret Uchiha Madara.

For so many years, Konoha has tried every means to artificially create ninjas who can use wood escape through experiments, but so far there has been no successful example.

Thinking of this, Jiraiya suddenly realized something.

"Could it be that...he successfully fused Hashirama's cells?"

Seeing Orochimaru nodded slightly, Jiraiya's mouth was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.

"No, I remember that research project was already...".

As he spoke, Jiraiya's voice became smaller and smaller, as if he knew something.

It should be the product of Orochimaru's own secret experiment, but even if he secretly experimented successfully, there is no need to hide it?

Is it because he is afraid of being punished by the Hokage? And why can't he be raised by his side? Why should he be asked to help raise him?

A series of questions made Jiraiya realize that this matter was not that simple. Orochimaru saw him deep in thought and said:

"His current identity cannot be made public. You can report this matter to the teacher when he is eight or nine years old or after he graduates from ninja school."

It's not that Orochimaru has never thought about raising it by himself, but when there is a child around him, Danzo will know what's going on with his butt.

Not to mention Yamato by then, even if the current sky burial can escape his control, Orochimaru will be pushed out by Danzo in advance to take the blame.

As for after the age of eight or nine, he had already left Konoha at that time, no matter how floods came.

Although it is a bit abrupt to have Jiraiya raise him, at least it is not that conspicuous. There are so many orphans homeless these days. What would happen if Jiraiya, an old man who has been single for more than thirty years, adopts a child?

Moreover, for a person like him who is a promiscuous person with a not-so-good reputation, others wouldn't think it was too strange if he brought a child back from outside.

"What the hell are you doing?"

Faced with Jiraiya's question, Orochimaru sighed helplessly.

"I know what I'm doing, and I hope you can keep this a secret for me, please!"

In Jiraiya's impression, Orochimaru rarely asked for help, and he always had this entrusting tone.

Seeing the flash of pleading in Orochimaru's eyes, Jiraiya, who originally wanted to say something else, opened and closed his mouth, but in the end it turned into a helpless sigh.

"Okay! Where is the child?"

Hearing Jiraiya's nod, Orochimaru first disappeared and then returned to the same place soon, except that there was an extra child of about two years old in his arms.

At this time, the child was sleeping soundly and was completely unaware of changes in the outside world.

"His original name is Yamato, you can give him another name!"

After carefully handing Yamato into Jiraiya's hands, Orochimaru finally breathed a sigh of relief.
