Black Naruto: Shadow Moon

Orochimaru personally found Uchiha Kagezuki and brought him a great piece of good news: "The plan to resurrect Hatake Sakumo has made key progress." He explained that through recent experiments, the technology to create a clone of Hatake Sakumo has become completely feasible.

As long as the soul of Hatake Sakumo, which was sealed by the soul sealing technique, is transferred to the clone body, Sakumo can be resurrected.

Yingyue couldn't help feeling delighted when she heard the news.

Uchiha Kagezuki quickly took the container that sealed Hatake Sakumo's soul and went to the laboratory with Orochimaru.

When the two arrived at Orochimaru's laboratory, Shadow Moon saw the clone - Hatake Sakumo's new body, lying quietly in a sealed glass chamber.

This clone has no consciousness, apparently because it does not have a soul.

Orochimaru explained: "In the process of making this body, I referred to the body structure of White Zetsu."

Orochimaru speculated that such a body might allow the resurrected Hatake Sakumo to possess simple Wood Release abilities, but Orochimaru also expressed his concerns: "However, his strength after resurrection might be weaker than when he was alive. After all, it is extremely difficult to perfectly replicate the body of a Kage-level warrior."

Yingyue listened carefully to Orochimaru's analysis, but Yingyue knew that this was the best opportunity at the moment, so he made a decisive statement: "Without further delay, let's revive Hatake Sakumo now."

Uchiha Kagezuki and Orochimaru began the process of soul transfer.

Uchiha Kagezuki unsealed the container that sealed Hatake Sakumo's soul and slowly guided Sakumo's soul into the clone's body.

As the soul entered the body, the clone's body gradually began to show signs of life.

Hatake Sakumo slowly opened his eyes and regained consciousness.

However, his eyes were full of confusion and pain, and it was obvious that his memory was still stuck in the last moments before his suicide.

"Aren't I already dead?" Sakumo asked, his voice filled with fatigue and confusion.

His mental state was still low. It was obvious that the time when his soul was sealed did not help him to get over the knot of being framed.

After his resurrection, Hatake Sakumo is still troubled by the pain and doubts of the past, and his eyes are full of confusion about his memories before his suicide.

At this time, Uchiha Kagezuki stepped forward and spoke slowly to Sakumo, his tone full of respect and sincerity:

"Teacher Sakumo, Orochimaru and I resurrected you together. I know you have accumulated too much sadness and confusion in your heart, but the matter of that mission is not as simple as you think. In fact, there is a hidden story behind the mission, and all the faults are not on you."

Yingyue looked at Sakumo and continued, "Teacher Sakumo, for Kakashi, you must live. Kakashi was hit hard by your death, and his heart has been in great pain during this period. Not only him, but the villagers of Konoha Village also feel sorry for you. Many people went to your grave to mourn and express their guilt and condolences to you."

Hatake Sakumo's eyes moved slightly, and Yingyue knew that this touched him.

"Afterwards, the Konoha high-ranking officials re-proclaimed you as the Hero of Konoha and publicly admitted that they had misunderstood you. Most importantly, Shimura Danzo, the one who actually framed you, has been punished."

Uchiha Yingyue's voice was full of earnestness, "I hope you can get over this and live on. No matter how many words I say, it won't be as good as you seeing it for yourself and feeling the respect and remembrance that Konoha Village has for you."

Yingyue took out a mask from behind and handed it to Hatake Sakumo, "This is what I prepared for you, Mr. Sakumo. Your resurrection is not suitable for public disclosure yet, but you can wear this mask and walk around Konoha to see how this village repents and remembers you."

After hearing what Yingyue said, Hatake Sakumo's heart was filled with waves.

He once thought that he had carried an unwashable shame and chose to commit suicide, but now Shadow Moon's words made him realize that his death not only hurt Kakashi, but also left Konoha Village with deep regret and remorse.

After some contemplation, he felt that his choice at the time was indeed too impulsive and he did not consider Kakashi's feelings and the regrets he left behind.

Hatake Sakumo slowly reached out his hand and took the mask handed to him by Yingyue. His eyes brightened a little, as if he was determined to walk out of the shadow of the past.

Putting on the mask, he nodded slightly and agreed to Shadow Moon's suggestion: "Maybe I should go to Konoha to take a look at this village and my son Kakashi."

Uchiha Kagezuki breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Hatake Sakumo had finally softened.

Shadow Moon knew that it would not be easy to get Sakumo to adjust to the world again after his resurrection, but this was the first step.

Afterwards, Orochimaru came to Uchiha Kagezuki again and excitedly shared with him the good news about Hashirama's cell experiment.

"Remember when we used your blood to neutralize Hashirama's cell solution?" Orochimaru's voice was filled with obvious excitement.

"After a period of research, I found a way to allow other people to use Hashirama's cell solution. To ensure safety, I experimented on myself first. Although the effect is limited without the side effect of tree transformation, it has greatly increased my chakra reserves."

Uchiha Kagezuki praised Orochimaru's achievements, but the news about Orochimaru was not over yet.

Orochimaru's tone became slightly heavier: "What's even more surprising is that I gave Senju Nawase a bottle of concentrated Hashirama cell solution. As the grandson of Senju Hashirama, his body is highly compatible with Hashirama's cells. The result surprised me greatly - Nawase awakened the ability of Wood Release."

Uchiha Kagezuki did not show much surprise when he heard the news that Senju Nawaki had awakened the Wood Release technique.

After all, Yingyue has the system and knows more about the immortal body and Hashirama's cells.

Uchiha Kagezuki secretly speculated that the awakening of Senju Nawaki's Wood Release was related to the increase in the awakening level of the Sage Body, and Hashirama's cells accelerated this process.

"This news is indeed exciting," Yingyue said slowly, "However, I guess that only the Senju clan or the descendants of Senju Hashirama will have a high chance of awakening Wood Release using Hashirama's cell solution. Orochimaru, you can consider giving the same solution to Tsunade. As the granddaughter of Senju Hashirama, the possibility of her awakening Wood Release is not low either."

Orochimaru thought for a moment and smiled appreciatively.

"Kagezuki, what you said makes a lot of sense," Orochimaru agreed, "The blood of the Senju clan and Hashirama's cells are indeed uniquely compatible. If Hashirama's cells are used on Tsunade, perhaps she will also be able to awaken this powerful Wood Release power."

Yingyue agreed with this, and at the same time knew in his heart that although the power of Hashirama's cells was strong, the hidden dangers therein could not be ignored.

Only those who possess the bloodline of Hashirama Senju can better integrate this power. Even if ordinary ninjas are able to gain improvement, the cost is often unbearable.
