Civilians in Konoha, forging their own paths

In the dense forest outside Konoha Village, Dihuangmaru and Orochimaru sat opposite each other and talked under the moonlight!

"Mr. Dihuangmaru, may I know what exactly happened in the battle between you and Uchiha Madara?" Orochimaru said.

Dihuangwan had no intention of revealing the truth to Orochimaru. After all, Orochimaru was too buggy and knew too much. Dihuangwan was worried that the situation would get out of his control!

"Senior Orochimaru, you and Senior Jiraiya were watching that battle from a distance. You know how fierce the battle was!"

Dihuang Wan continued, "At the end, I was already in an absolute disadvantage. If I didn't have a special trick, the final outcome would be defeat!"

"So, I sent you a message, asking you to get away quickly. Then I found the right moment and used up almost all my energy to make the water giant explode! Then I used the remaining energy to use Flying Thunder God to escape! Although I saved my life, the power of the explosion and the exhaustion of energy left me seriously injured!"

"After that, I recovered in a safe place. It took me half a year to fully recover. After knowing what happened next, I decided to hide in the dark completely!"

After listening to what Dihuangmaru said, Orochimaru didn't think it was false. After all, the battle at that time was too shocking. The Valley of the End was completely destroyed since that battle and turned into the Lake of the End.

"Dihuangmaru, so that's how it is! But why didn't you choose to come back after you recovered, but chose to hide? Even if you are very strong and can ignore Konoha's detection and enter and exit at will, it is still inconvenient!" Orochimaru asked with some confusion.

Dihuangwan sighed, "Senior Orochimaru, before that battle, the attitude of the top leaders towards me was already a little subtle! If I come back again, I am afraid that I will have to face the intrigues of the top leaders again. Conflicts will break out sooner or later. By then, the ones who will be hurt are the village and my companions! Therefore, I don't want to face those anymore. I finally decided to hide myself. This is all for the good of the village!"

After hearing this, Orochimaru fell silent. Of course he knew the darkness behind the village, and he had even been in contact with this darkness!

Dihuangwan did not continue the topic and asked Orochimaru, "Senior Orochimaru, you went to my house before to test me, but what do you want to ask me?"

"It's nothing serious. It's just that when I tried to use the Impure World Reincarnation Technique to revive you, I failed repeatedly. So I concluded that you were still alive, so I was eager to know your whereabouts. That's why I went to your house to test and see if anyone knew you were still alive!"

"In the entire Konoha, only Feiyun, Minato and Kushina know about this. I haven't told anyone else! Senior Orochimaru, you are the first person besides my family who knows the secret that I am still alive!" Dihuangmaru said.

Dihuangwan took the initiative to come out this time in order to make Orochimaru give up the idea of ​​plotting against his family!

What I mean is, if you have any problem, just come to me directly! My child is still young and can't stand your torment!

"Haha, I feel honored!" Orochimaru said with a smile, "But, after Tsunade knows this secret, I'm afraid she won't let you off easily! After you died, she was depressed for a while!"

"Cough cough!"

Thinking of Tsunade's iron fist, Dihuangwan couldn't help but cough twice!

"Please keep this secret, Senior Orochimaru!"

"Of course, I'm waiting to see you finally exposed and beaten up!" Orochimaru smiled playfully again.

"I will apologize to Sister Tsunade!" Dihuangwan sighed.

Changing the subject, Dihuangwan asked, "Senior Orochimaru, I heard what you said in the laboratory just now. Did you cooperate with Shimura Danzo in your previous experiments?"

"Haha, that old guy was obsessed with strength even earlier than I was. I cultivated a first-generation cell arm for him, but it's a pity that I didn't see the transplant process. I don't know how he solved the rejection reaction!"

"All my previous human experiments ended in failure! That old fellow Danzo, please spare me a trick!"

Having said that, Orochimaru's face turned cold!

"This is consistent with Shimura Danzo's style. In this world, there is no one he truly trusts! Everyone is a tool he uses!" Dihuangwan said.

"Dihuangmaru has a very thorough understanding of Shimura Danzo!" said Orochimaru.

"Haha, I've already faced his malice!" Dihuangwan thought of the scene when he first came into contact with Danzo Shimura, which was at the battlefield command center in the Land of Rain.

"Senior Orochimaru, I've watched your experiment for a while. You still want to transplant the primary cells into the human body!"

"Of course, this experiment can't be seen in public, but the top management tacitly approves it! This little secret between Danzo and I can't be hidden from the all-seeing Hokage! But from beginning to end, they never asked a single question!"

"Senior Orochimaru, it seems that you have a thorough understanding of the Hokage!"

Orochimaru showed a complicated expression!

Dihuangwan knew the complicated feelings that Orochimaru had for his mentor, so he didn't say anything more and changed the subject, "Regarding the research on the first-generation cells, has Orochimaru ever thought that everything in the world is mutually restraining and interdependent, and the first-generation cells also have restraints."

"I have tried all the methods I can think of, but none of them can effectively restrain the Shodaime Hokage. At best, they can only delay the effect!"

"Then have you ever thought about whether there is anything in Danzo that can restrain the first generation cell arm?"

"This..." Orochimaru pondered for a moment and finally shook his head.

"Senior Orochimaru, how long has it been since you last saw Shimura Danzo's right eye?"

"Hmm? Right eye, what do you mean?" Orochimaru didn't react immediately. "After their friend Uchiha Kagami died, Danzo appeared again with his right eye covered. It should be... Hmm? Wait! Dihuangmaru-kun, what do you mean!"

Dihuang Wan nodded!

"Senior Orochimaru, the only one who could compete with the first generation was Uchiha Madara. Moreover, during the Warring States Period, the only one who could compete with the Senju clan was the Uchiha clan!"

"So, Shimura Danzo should have transplanted Uchiha Kagami's right eye, and then covered it with gauze as a cover!"

"You mean, Danzo used the Sharingan to restrain the erosion of the first generation's cells?!" Orochimaru took a deep breath.

"Senior Orochimaru, do you still remember how Shimura Danzo performed in the Rain Country battlefield?"

Of course Orochimaru remembered that Danzo Shimura was suppressed by Hanzo Salamander in the Land of Rain, and was eventually removed from his position as commander and replaced by him!

"You mean, Danzo's poor performance on the battlefield was due to the transplantation of Uchiha Kagami's Sharingan?"

"That's right. For ordinary people, the corrosive power of the first generation cells is hard to resist. Similarly, transplanting the Sharingan to an ordinary person will also put a huge burden on the body! Therefore, transplanting Uchiha Kagami's Sharingan has affected Shimura Danzo's own strength, making him unable to exert his full strength!"

Orochimaru listened to Dihuangwan's words and gradually widened his eyes. "No wonder Shimura Danzo has been urging the progress of the experiment. It turns out that he wants to use the first generation cells to resist the burden of the Sharingan, and at the same time use the Sharingan to restrain the first generation cells from eroding the body! Great!"
