Kaoru turned his head and looked, and found a middle-aged man who looked timid and shrinking, but from this middle-aged man, Kaoru felt a trace of a familiar aura.
"My lord invites you to his house." At this time, the middle-aged man suddenly looked at Kaoru and said.
"Your lord......" Kaoru narrowed his eyes, and then understood who the person was. This aura, coupled with his ability to hide himself, who else could it be but Yakushi Kabuto?
"So that's how it is. The thing I asked for is completed?" Kaoru tapped the table lightly with his finger and asked.
"It's already completed. To be honest, it's quite perfect. Even my lord praised it." Kabuto said with a soft smile.
"Is that so......" Kaoru stared at the ramen in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Therefore, my lord would like to invite you to go and check it out. Now, please come with me." Kabuto continued to say cautiously.
"I understand...... You go back first." Facing Kabuto's request, Kaoru said indifferently, and then ignored him, directly turning around and walking out of the ramen shop.
"That..... Aren't you going to come with me to take a look?" Kabuto's heart was full of incomprehension. Wasn't he supposed to notify Kaoru as soon as the cell experiment was completed? Why was this guy acting so indifferent?
"No, you can go back now." Kaoru said without stopping his steps, without turning his head.
"What an arrogant guy....." Seeing Kaoru say this, Kabuto felt very upset in his heart, but he couldn't do anything about Kaoru.
There was no way around it, he had no choice but to leave Konoha Village again alone and return to his Sound Village.
After learning that his experiment to transplant Hashirama's cells had been successful, Kaoru temporarily suppressed the excitement in his heart. He couldn't just believe that it was successful just because Orochimaru said it was. He naturally had to verify it first.
Returning to his home, Kaoru first set up a barrier to prevent intrusion in front of his house, and then came to the yard.
"Summoning Technique!" Kaoru formed hand seals with both hands, and slammed them on the ground!
At this time, in the Sound Village, Kaoru's Illusion Clone, who was standing in Orochimaru's laboratory, suddenly disappeared!
"What's going on?" Hearing the commotion coming from inside the laboratory, Orochimaru rushed in.
"The Illusion Clone disappeared? Was it taken away by Kaoru?" A trace of doubt and incomprehension flashed in Orochimaru's eyes.
"The Summoning Technique was successful!" Looking at the Illusion Clone, which was exactly the same as him, in the yard, Kaoru revealed a smile.
The way to investigate whether Orochimaru's experiment was successful was to personally transfer his spirit into this Illusion Clone to try it out. On this point, he couldn't just listen to Orochimaru's words, after all, this was something related to his body.
Because letting his spirit enter the Illusion Clone would cause his main body to lose control, it was safer to test this kind of thing at his own home.
Kaoru first looked at his Illusion Clone, and found that there were no changes in the body, and even the face of Hashirama Senju hadn't appeared on his chest like Madara Uchiha.
"There's no difference on the outside. Alright, Orochimaru, now let me personally try it out. Did your experiment really succeed......" Kaoru sat on the sofa, looking at the Illusion Clone in the yard, and the Mangekyō Sharingan rotated rapidly.
"Swish!" Spiritual power directly transmitted from the main body, entering the Illusion Clone. Kaoru's main body fell into a slumber, while the Illusion Clone opened its eyes.
"Judging from the feeling, there's indeed nothing uncomfortable." Kaoru moved his hands and feet and laughed.
"Next, let's try the Wood Release that Hashirama Senju was best at!" Kaoru formed hand seals with both hands: "Snake—Rat—Dog—Tiger, Wood Release: Wood Locking Wall!"
He slammed his hand on the ground, and the ground in front of the Illusion Clone began to arch, and then a large row of wooden pillars curved and formed from the ground, firmly protecting the Illusion Clone within.
"Wood Release, it's a success!" A look of surprise appeared in Kaoru's eyes. He had learned this Wood Release from the Book of Seals. Kaoru thought that he would never be able to use the Wood Release from the Book of Seals, but he didn't expect that he would now possess Wood Release!
"It seems that Orochimaru really didn't lie to me. This Illusion Clone has perfectly fused with Hashirama Senju's cells. Being able to use Wood Release is the best explanation." Kaoru laughed. Only those who had completely mastered Hashirama Senju's cells could use Wood Release, such as Madara Uchiha, Obito Uchiha, and Yamato.
"Alright, I'll use this Illusion Clone for a few days first. If there are still no abnormalities after a few days, then I can go find Orochimaru and have him transplant Hashirama Senju's cells for me." Kaoru thought to himself.
In this way, Kaoru hid his main body well, and then used this Illusion Clone for a full week. He didn't feel any abnormalities during this week, and he had also mastered many Wood Release ninjutsu.
"Alright, nothing abnormal has happened for a week. Now it's time to go find Orochimaru." After Kaoru's spirit returned to his main body, he began to head towards the Sound Village.
This time, Kaoru no longer leisurely walked while admiring the scenery, but advanced non-stop all the way. In this way, he reached the Land of Rice Fields in just three hours.
At this time, in a dark room, Orochimaru was comfortably looking at a young man not far from him, with a playful smile on his face.
"As you wished, I have come to your territory, and you should keep your promise and teach me all of your ninjutsu!" The young man stared at Orochimaru and said coldly.
This young man was Uchiha Sasuke.
"Of course, of course, I will naturally teach you all the ninjutsu I know. The stronger you are, the more satisfied I will be with you." Orochimaru said sinisterly. After all, Sasuke was his future reincarnation vessel, so he naturally had to treat him well. What Sasuke learned, he would use in the future.
"In that case, then I'll teach you how to master the power of the curse mark first." Orochimaru said, and was about to make a move.
"No need, I've already completely mastered it." Sasuke responded coldly, and then the curse mark began to cover his entire body. Then his face turned black, a cross-shaped pattern appeared in the middle of his face, and two huge wings, like eagle claws, grew out of his back. His hair also turned blue. It was Curse Mark Level 2!
Before, Sasuke had barely defeated Naruto with this Curse Mark Level 2 state.
"As expected, worthy of being a genius of the Uchiha clan. You actually mastered the Curse Mark Level 2 state in such a short time." Orochimaru looked at the changing Sasuke, and couldn't help but reveal a look of longing.
"I can feel that I possess powerful strength in this state." Sasuke clenched his fists and said, "However, with just this bit of strength, it's far from enough to defeat that man. Therefore, you must teach me other ninjutsu!"
The pitiful Sasuke didn't know that even if he learned all of Orochimaru's ninjutsu, he still wouldn't be a match for Itachi, if Itachi wasn't deliberately holding back.
"Of course, of course. Your desire for revenge is the driving force behind your pursuit of powerful strength. I admire this very much." Orochimaru licked his lips and said.
"Alright, stop talking nonsense. Now you quickly teach me what you know......"
Sasuke put on a cold face. Before he could finish speaking, his whole person suddenly froze, and after a moment, he fell down.
"This is....." Orochimaru looked at Sasuke, who had fallen to the ground, and couldn't help but be stunned.
"It seems that you have gotten your wish, Orochimaru. Sasuke has been successfully won over by you." A voice rang out, and Kaoru's figure suddenly appeared in front of Orochimaru.
