Konoha's Ninja Successor

Chapter 23 What are you afraid of?

During his cooperation with Orochimaru, he studied many experiments that might further improve himself, and some of them succeeded and some failed.

For example, increasing cell activation can keep the human body in a youthful state as long as possible and prolong the peak period of the ninja.

For example, wind plus water attribute chakra can create ice escape and blood stain boundaries from scratch.This research was completed by Shimura Teru, but this method requires super chakra control ability. Orochimaru is different from Shimura Teru in this aspect.

In the end, Orochimaru successfully used the Ice Release Ninjutsu, but it was very difficult to use it freely in battle.So although the experiment successfully revealed the chakra operation method and seal sequence, for Orochimaru, the experiment that could not reduce the difficulty of learning ice escape ultimately failed.

There are also topics such as how to increase the limit of human chakra, how to delay aging, and even the possibility of immortality. Orochimaru and Shimura Teru also developed a like-minded comradeship during the research process.

Compared to the teachers and companions in the village who didn't understand him, Teru Shimura, a junior who was somewhat similar to him, seemed a little cute.Sometimes Orochimaru couldn't figure out how Danzo's old dog gave birth to such an outstanding son as Teru Shimura. He was like a dog father and a tiger son.

"It's been half a year. How is the research progress on the three-tailed beast? Uncle Snake." Teru Shimura put the blade back into its scabbard and curiously inquired about the progress of the research on the tailed beast.

Teru Shimura, who came to the Kingdom of Water a year ago, not only promotes the plot of liberating Kirigakure Village in advance, but also hopes that Kirigakure Village will be stabilized as soon as possible to add fuel to future wars.There is also a more important purpose for the three-tailed Isobutsu in Kirikage Village. As early as half a year ago, Shimura Teru sealed the three-tailed Isobutsu in the lake on his own, and started new research on tailed beasts with Orochimaru.

The reason why Shimura Teru studies tailed beasts is because he covets the huge chakra of tailed beasts. Another big reason that limits the growth of Shimura Teru's strength is the issue of chakra amount.

Although Shimura Teru has a huge amount of chakra among ordinary ninjas, almost thirty times the amount of Kakashi's chakra, this advantage is simply a joke in front of the Senju, Uzumaki and even tailed beasts. .Therefore, the issue of chakra amount has now become a pressing concern of Shimura Teru, so Shimura Teru focused on the tailed beasts.

The Three-Tails became Shimura Teru's primary target, because the Three-Tails is in a closed country of water, and the Three-Tails itself is not very strong among the tailed beasts. Compared with other powerful Ninja Villages, it is easier to attack, so Shimura Teru targeted the three-tailed Isobutsu.

After successfully capturing and sealing the Three-Tails, Shimura Teru hoped that Orochimaru would seal it in his body so that he could become a Jinchūriki to solve the chakra problem.However, when it came to becoming a jinchuriki, Orochimaru regretfully told Shimura Teru based on research and analysis that his body could not withstand the three-tailed Isotouch and could not become a jinchuriki.

If you want to become a Jinchuriki, you must meet a prerequisite, that is, you must have a suitable and strong physique to be able to withstand the seal of the tailed beast and become a Jinchuriki.For example, the former Jinchūriki of the Kyuubi is Shimura Teru's friend Uzumaki Kushina. Kushina is the princess of the Uzumaki clan. The Uzumaki clan is a powerful clan famous for its vitality and sealing techniques, so Konoha specially sealed the Kyuubi in her body. in the body.

And Shimura Teru's body is a very pure ordinary person's body, and the Shimura clan is not a family known for its physical fitness. Naturally, Shimura Teru's physique cannot withstand the chakra of the three tails.

The unwilling Shimura Teru was naturally unwilling to give up. He came up with another way, which was to cultivate a weakened version of the tailed beast so that his body could withstand it.

The first thing Shimura Teru thought of was Sora in the Naruto plot, the key figure in the pseudo-Jinchuuriki plan.He wanted to try to use the three tails as the basis, separate a part of the three tails chakra for cultivation, and carve out a weak version of the little tailed beast with independent consciousness.

After he told Orochimaru about his idea, Orochimaru felt that this method was very feasible, so the two began to study this half a year ago. This is why Shimura Teru stayed in Kirigakure Village for so long. .

When Orochimaru saw Teru Shimura asking about the progress of the tailed beast's re-creation plan, Orochimaru shook his head and regretted: "It's a pity that although the chakra was successfully separated and some experimental subjects were re-created, without exception, they were all cruel. An instinctive failure cannot be used as material for a pseudo-Jinchuriki."

"There's no rush. The progress is already very fast. Just try and make mistakes slowly." Shimura Teru knew that this matter could not be rushed, so he was not in a hurry.

"You're not just here to ask about the progress of my tailed beast experiment, right?" Orochimaru looked at Shimura Teru with his eyes that could see through people's hearts and said.

"Of course, I have been in the Kingdom of Water for too long, and I need detailed information about Konoha for the past year." Shimura Teru said calmly.

Since Teru Shimura stayed in the Kingdom of Water, he has not had the opportunity to obtain information from the outside world. Recently, he also feels that things in Kirigakure Village are almost settled. He estimates that it is time to start implementing some long-decided plans. .

"It seems that you are preparing to leave the Kingdom of Water. Where are you going? Are you going to Konoha?"

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly after hearing this, licked his lips, and said with a hint of inexplicable emotion in his tone.

Shimura Teru nodded. He did not hide his plan and said: "It's almost time."

"Come with me." Orochimaru glanced at the water under his feet that had been drained through the drain, then turned around to lead the way.

Teru Shimura quietly followed Orochimaru away, bypassing many secret passages, and arrived at a secret room where countless scrolls were stored.

A desk lamp provided all the light in the small secret room. Orochimaru took an unclosed scroll from it, rolled it up and threw it to Shimura Teru behind him.

"Thank you!" Shimura Teru sincerely thanked Orochimaru after catching the scroll.

"Hui, I'm curious about something."

Shimura Teru paused when he was about to open the scroll, then put down the raised scroll and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Why are you so thirsty for power?"

Shimura Teru chuckled: "Uncle Snake, what kind of problem is this? Isn't the pursuit of power an ambition shared by most ninjas? I want to become stronger and pursue power."

Orochimaru smiled sinisterly, shook his head and said, "You can't fool me, Hui. A smart person will hide his purpose from others. In fact, it's just a way to protect himself. Although I don't know your purpose. , but still showed some flaws."

Shimura Teru raised his head and stared at Orochimaru, but there was no expression on his face.

"It's not a big discovery. The reason why you pursue strength is fear. Are you afraid of something? Afraid of a person? Or is it some kind of future that has not happened yet but may happen?"

Orochimaru paused, then he looked at Shimura Teru with squinted eyes and continued.

"Hui, what are you afraid of when you are so powerful?"
