I, Hikaru Uchiha, join the chat group

Kimimaro woke up the next morning.

Uchiha Hikaru and Eriki were already preparing to have breakfast.

"Are you awake?"

"The surgery is very...the toothbrush and towels are over there. They are all newly opened. Go and wash yourself and then come over for dinner."

"..."

Kimimaro stood still, looking around hesitantly, and then turned his gaze to Uchiha Hikaru: "Who...are you? Where is this place?"

"Don't worry, this place is far away from the dungeon you were staying in before. As for the same people who imprisoned you, if nothing else happens, you may never encounter them again in your life."

"Dungeon..."

Kimimaro raised his head blankly, and carefully identified Uchiha Hikari, seeming to recall something: "Are you the god who rescued me yesterday?"

"That's it."

Uchiha Hikari raised the bread at hand and raised his chin casually: "I know you may still have some doubts, but those are not important. Don't ask me again, 'Why should I save you', or 'What's the point of living?' 'Then. Living is meaningless, but only by living can you discover interesting things, just like you met this piece of bread, just like I met you...

When you understand, go and wash up quickly. The milk will be cold in a while! "

"..."

Perhaps because he had not experienced the genocide incident in the original timeline, Kimimaro seemed a bit ignorant and was not directly influenced by the mouth escape that originally came from Orochimaru.

Instead, he stood there stunned for a while, then turned around to wash up, and then cautiously came to the table.

"sit."

Uchiha Hikaru motioned to Shota to sit on the empty chair next to him, and then handed over a piece of bread and milk.

"Eat, we have to hit the road later."

……

After breakfast, Uchiha Hikaru took Eri and Kimimaro for a walk around the small towns in the Land of Water, buying some local snacks and souvenirs.

In the afternoon, she summoned somersault clouds and flew all the way towards the Sound Ninja Village.

Kimimaro was obviously also quite curious about the existence of Somersault Cloud, but due to personality issues, his face was still expressionless, and he didn't rush to ask the question like Koro.

This continued until the next morning.

The three of them successfully arrived at the Oto Ninja Village after being away for several days.

Back in the village, Uchiha Hikari first distributed the snacks he bought in the Water Country to Karin, Jugo, and even Orochimaru and Guren. Then he took Kimimaro and showed his face in front of Uzumaki, his daughter, and others, officially labeling him a "new resident of Oto Ninja Village".

When seeing Kimimaro, Orochimaru's shadow clone showed a confused expression.

"Lord Guang, this child is..."

"Oh, I picked it up on the road when I went out a few days ago. Its name is Kaguya Kimimaro. He is a descendant of the Kaguya clan."

Uchiha Hikaru gave this explanation.

"..."

The corners of Orochimaru's eyes twitched, and he didn't know what to say:

Last time I went out, I "picked up" Jugo, the born sage, and this time I "picked up" Kimimaro from the Corpse Vein... In a few days, I'm afraid he will pick up a Jinchuuriki directly?

Besides, the Sound Ninja Village and the Kingdom of Water are thousands of miles apart. How did they manage to complete the round trip within a week and even capture someone by the way?

Next, Uchiha Hikari briefly asked a few questions about the situation of Xianglan and others.

Orochimaru gathered his thoughts and replied in a slightly more serious tone: "Your judgment is correct. That kid Xiang Lian does have some potential for doing research and has a strong learning ability."

"Yeah……"

For a scientist of Orochimaru's level to give such an evaluation, it can be seen that the performance of Xiang Phosphorus is indeed remarkable.

However, Jugo is not so good.

This big guy's brain is a bit stupid, and it is difficult to complete even the most basic homework. He relies on Xiang Phosphorus to help answer questions and solve doubts, so he can barely keep up with the learning progress. However, considering that Orochimaru is currently teaching the most basic things and only studies for an hour a day, if the requirements are raised a little bit, it will be difficult for Jugo to keep up.

"It doesn't matter, just learn a little bit."

Uchiha Hikari patted Kimimaro next to him and said lightly: "Let's bring him with us starting tomorrow, so we can form the same class."

"……it is good."

Orochimaru looked at Kimimaro and hesitated to speak.

Uchiha Hikari guessed his thoughts: "You can use him to study the ability of 'Corpse Bone Pulse', but there is a condition... find a way to cure his blood disease."

The corpse bone veins of the Kaguya clan are somewhat similar to the Uchiha's kaleidoscope.

It's an ability that the more you use it, the closer it gets to being sealed.

Moreover, compared with the kaleidoscope that usually only blinds the eyes - Itachi's kind is a special case - the blood disease of the corpse bone vein will affect the whole body. In the original plot, Kimimaro was on the verge of physical collapse when he was fourteen or fifteen years old because of over-development of the blood inheritance limit.

If this problem cannot be solved, then his lifespan in this life may not be too long.

"I understand, Lord Guang."

Orochimaru nodded slightly, expressing understanding.

All in all, since Uchiha Hikaru came to the Sound Ninja Village, the number of Orochimaru's projects has increased at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Hybrids, ghosts, whirlpool constitution, immortal transformation, corpse veins...

Without exception, they are all big topics that can be devoted to research for a period of time.

In addition to the existing topics in his own hands - such as the secret of immortal reincarnation, the reincarnation of dirty soil, and the cultivation and transplantation of Hashirama cells...

Lin Lin finally got up and found that he had almost a dozen topics in his hands at the same time.

Even Orochimaru, who had always been keen on doing these studies, felt a little headache for a while. For the first time, he began to worry that he might not be killed in the battle, but would be exhausted to death by these blessings...

"He who can do it should work harder. I believe in you, Uncle Snake."

Uchiha Hikaru stood on tiptoe and patted Orochimaru's shoulder, comforting: "I will find a way to help you purchase experimental equipment, but as for research assistants... you have to find a way yourself. Try to cultivate the fragrant phosphorus as soon as possible, so that She helps you with some of the work.”

By the way, Uchiha Hikari had already summoned Danzo once through the "Sealed Tsukuyomi" and passed on the order to "send Yakushi Kabuto and his son to the Oto Ninja Village as undercover agents."

But the time and opportunity to come over had to be arranged a little, and they needed to be arranged according to the real undercover mission, so as not to arouse Orochimaru's suspicion.

——Uchiha Hikari's use of the "Eight Thousand Spears" to control Danzo was a secret move. On the surface, she is still Danzo's most hated enemy. Therefore, no one should be able to tell that what Danzo did was related to her. Even she herself should be on Yakushi Kabuto's "watch" list.

After explaining everything about the Sound Ninja Village.

The next day, Uchiha Hikari accompanied Erika back home, and handed a purchase list made in advance to Minamoto Chisei in person.

"Help me put these things away, thank you."

"..."

Inside the wooden room of Genji Heavy Industries.

Yuan Zhisheng looked at the "NMR scanner" and "High-throughput sequencer" on the list and fell into deep thought again.

and so……

This Miss "White King" with mysterious origins not only likes H-comics, but she is also a Dragon King who likes to do academic research?
