Capítulo 65: Chapter 65: Orochimaru's Lab
In the dim underground research facility, the anticipated dampness was absent, replaced instead by a dry and well-lit environment. The only notable difference was the increased number of winding snake-like corridors.
With a creaking sound, the laboratory's large door slowly swung open, revealing medical ninjas wearing protective masks, busily going about their work. At that moment, a figure intercepted the newcomer.
"Lord Yoru, the people behind you need to sign a confidentiality agreement."
A respectful masked guard stepped forward and extended his arm to stop them. Uchiha Yoru nodded with a smile and said, "Okay."
"Kakashi, you also need to sign the confidentiality agreement."
Signing such an agreement was only required when entering certain secret bases within the village or attending secretive meetings. Seeing this scene, Kakashi was taken aback, realizing that the place was actually the village's secret research base.
Though he had a mission to accomplish, Kakashi understood that if it were genuinely private, he wouldn't be allowed inside. Hence, he deduced that it must be a legitimate research base owned by the village.
As a high-ranking shinobi, Kakashi was eligible to participate in various village secrets and gain access to certain secret bases after signing the confidentiality agreement.
"Okay," Kakashi respectfully took the pen and scroll, signing his name and leaving his fingerprint, thus gaining entry.
"Kakashi, Orochimaru-sensei is now part of Root, and as someone who has been in the ANBU, you probably already know. I won't say more about it," Yoru said as he led Kakashi further inside.
Walking amidst the bustling base, Yoru had a relaxed smile, making it seem as if the two were old friends. However, Kakashi understood his mission well and couldn't help but look puzzled, asking, "What kind of research is conducted here?"
Facing Kakashi's inquiry, Yoru smiled apologetically and waved his hand. "The details of the research are confidential, but I can tell you the rest."
"The focus here is on cultivating limbs and organs, advancing transplant techniques, and even achieving self healing. This way, there's no need to resort to using deceased criminals or spies."
At the Jonin level, organ and limb transplants were no longer secrets. After all, it would be a waste if a skilled shinobi lost a limb or organ in battle, leading to non-combat status. It was more practical to find compatible chakra sources for organs and limbs. Most spies, traitors, and even enemy prisoners during wartime would be used for this purpose.
However, these practices were unspoken rules tacitly agreed upon by the Five Great Nations and were not made public. Few smaller nations possessed such advanced technology.
Looking around at the base's numerous cultivating vessels containing arms, legs, hearts, and various organs, it seemed that some intensive and perhaps cruel cultivation experiments were underway.
"Yoru, what is all this?"
Kakashi's voice was serious, and he felt that Yoru might be attempting to involve him in something. He couldn't ignore the fact that the actions of his former team, the Seventh Division, were likely signaling Orochimaru's intentions to the village, representing Orochimaru's political agenda.
Yoru saw Kakashi's hesitant expression and smiled apologetically. He slowed their pace and spoke quietly in Kakashi's ear.
"Kakashi, I'm sorry, but your Sharingan is constantly consuming your chakra. In this state, it's challenging for you to concentrate on proper training. If you don't find a way to control it, it will hinder your progress. I will help you with your eye problem, and then you won't have to worry about anything else."
Yoru assured Kakashi with a wink, as if saying that they would first gain some benefits and then deal with the rest.
However, Kakashi perceived something different in Yoru's actions. It seemed as if Yoru didn't want to fully involve him in this situation. Because of this, Kakashi felt even more conflicted and guilty.
Joining the Seventh Division in the Police Department was ostensibly for training and also a political investment, just like Inuzuka and other Clans. But Uchiha and Hyuga were different. They were directly betting on Orochimaru, clearly stating their position.
In Kakashi's eyes, it appeared that Yoru didn't want to entangle him completely in this complex situation, and this feeling added to his sense of remorse.
