Chapitre 146: Chapter – 143 Information
The path Kuroto has chosen will indeed be very difficult to tread on, however, Kuroto has the will to overcome all the obstacles and finally achieve his dream.
After considering a little he asked, "Orochimaru-Sama, can you help me to get the scroll of the 'Chimera Technique?'"
The indifferent attitude Orochimaru showed towards the 'Chimera Technique' is very fortunate for Kuroto, as long as Orochimaru himself doesn't value this technique very much, Kuroto wouldn't have to pay too big of a price to be able to exchange it with Orochimaru.
Orochimaru seems to have already expected Kuroto's question and questioned back with a smirk, "Sure, I can get you the scroll for the 'Chimera Technique,' but the question is, what are you going to do for me in return?"
As soon as Kuroto saw Orochimaru's smirk, he suddenly had a bad feeling about it.
While tapping his chin, Orochimaru said, "I recently heard a piece of interesting news, and it states that Uchiha Shisui has also awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, if I am not wrong, he is a member of your team -11 in the Anbu, right?"
Kuroto immediately understood what Orochimaru meant, and asked, "You want Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan?"
Kuroto was a little surprised by this, initially, he thought that Orochimaru was going after Uchiha Shinichi, and maybe needed help to deal with Shinichi in one fell swoop, he never really thought that the snake would be too greedy and was also eying another Mangekyou Sharingan pair!
Orochimaru also didn't deny Kuroto's question as his smirk deepened into a crazy and obsessive one.
Looking at that maniacal smirk, Kuroto couldn't help thinking of Orochimaru's will being modified by Koto Amatsukami, changing him into Konoha's loyal dog who would give his all for the sake of Village… you know as that Will of Fire crap says… how would that turn out?
As soon as this thought emerged, Kuroto immediately shook his head and drove that absurd and freaky thought out of his mind, because if such a thing really happened then it would be too scary.
Regaining his calmness, Kuroto said with a helpless expression, "Orochimaru-Sama, I advise you to give up the idea of going after Uchiha Shisui!"
Orochimaru was obviously not angered but rather curious as to why would Kuroto-Kun say such a thing so bluntly, "Why?"
"As far as I know, Uchiha Shisui's strength is beyond anyone; I have ever seen. I am afraid that even if both of us go after him at the same time, we wouldn't be able to match him, that's how strong Uchiha Shisui is!" – with a bitter smile Kuroto continued, "I am not persuading you to give up, but I want to tell you that I don't have a wish to accompany you to the Pure Land at such an early age, going after Uchiha Shisui is simply looking for death!"
To deepen the weight of his words, Kuroto even briefly gave the 'Official' information of Shisui's endeavors in the Land of Lightning.
Of course, he just put most of his credit on Shisui's head, that's why the 'Official' information. After all, even Konoha Advisory Board believes that it was Uchiha Shisui who razed that valley. And Kuroto is sure that even if Orochimaru had obtained any intelligence about that event, all he would have gotten is the exact same information as what Kuroto said.
And sure enough, Orochimaru didn't seem very surprised by Kuroto's words, this simply meant that Orochimaru knew the basic gist about it.
Now what Kuroto has revealed is a more detailed version of what Orochimaru would have heard previously.
Even Orochimaru had a solemn look when he heard all the detail, and looking at his silence, Kuroto said, "None of the Uchiha who has awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan would be easy to deal with, so before going after either of them, I suggest that you better investigate all their abilities thoroughly, otherwise…"
Kuroto left the last part unsaid, which would have more impact as Orochimaru's mind could work out on its own to imagine all sort of scenarios… after all, a word to the wise is more than enough.
A tacit silence lasted between the two as they continued walking forward. After a little consideration, Orochimaru smiled slightly to which Kuroto could only sigh.
Not only Orochimaru wasn't depressed, instead, his expression indicated as if he found the perfect prey. There was an inexplicable enthusiasm, and greed clearly visible in snake eyes. Stretching out his long tongue, he licked around his thin lips and spoke, "Kuroto-Kun, you sure are underestimating me, aren't you?"
Kuroto only shook his head helplessly.
Orochimaru obviously didn't take Kuroto's advice to heart, but that's also normal, after all, if Orochimaru would just give up the Mangekyou Sharingan so easily then he wouldn't be Orochimaru!
His obsession is more powerful, so not only Kuroto's, Orochimaru wouldn't take anyone's persuasion to heart.
Whether Uchiha Shinichi or Uchiha Shisui, one of them must be attained…
But Kuroto knows that Orochimaru wouldn't succeed because both the targets he plans to go after are precisely the kind of Shinobi that restrains him the most.
Whether it is Shisui or Shinichi, both of them are Genjutsu masters in their own right, adding the fact that both of them have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan which has further increased their Genjutsu mastery, so the battle would more or less turn out the same way as it did with Itachi.
And compared to Itachi, facing Shisui would be more dangerous for Orochimaru, because Shisui might just use Kotoamatsukami on him.
The same will be the case when going up against Shinichi who could continue with the battle for who knows how long courtesy to Hachiman and Nakisawame.
Kuroto understood that his advice didn't have any meaning, because even if anyone tells him to not go after the 'Chimera Technique,' Kuroto wouldn't listen and continue chasing after it.
Similarly, Orochimaru wouldn't give up, so it's better not waste any time on it. Orochimaru wouldn't change his mind without suffering repeatedly.
Therefore, he didn't speak anymore and continued walking beside Orochimaru towards another secret laboratory.
After reaching this laboratory, Orochimaru took out a scroll and threw it towards Kuroto.
Hastily opening the scroll, Kuroto took a closer look and found that the information recorded in it was exactly what he needed about Orochimaru's studies of 'Human Cells' and 'Cell Cloning.'
After a brief glance, Kuroto put away the scroll and thanked Orochimaru sincerely, "Thank you very much Orochimaru-Sama!"
Orochimaru didn't care much and spoke in a hoarse voice, "If you want to start with studies of Human Cells, and if you want to start with experimentations, you would need many supporting equipment, but that is something you'll have to prepare for yourself!"
"I wouldn't trouble you with such trivial matters, Orochimaru-Sama!" – Kuroto said with a nod.
'Trivial!?' – Orochimaru raised his eyebrow, but after thinking a little that Kuroto is part of the Hyuga Clan, so he must have access to very large funds, therefore, Orochimaru decided to ignore the matter.
At this time Kuroto asked again, "What about the Chimera Technique?"
Orochimaru's smile immediately turned creepy as he said, "Come to me again when you find out what are Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan abilities!"
Kuroto nodded.
Kuroto still has no idea whether Hiruko has completed the 'Chimera Technique,' after all it is still fifteen years early to the time when Hiruko initiated the final step of absorbing the five Kekkei Genkai, based on the original timeline.
Since it is still fifteen years early, there is no clarity about the status of the 'Chimera Technique.'
Therefore, Kuroto isn't too anxious to get his hands on the 'Chimera Technique.' His main purpose for this visit was to obtain the information on 'Cell Studies,' 'Cloning' and to confirm the current status of Hiruko.
With Orochimaru's confirmation that Hiruko has joined the Akatsuki and obtaining the two scrolls, both of his purposes have been completed.
As soon as he was about to leave, Kuroto suddenly had an idea, so he said to Orochimaru, "You seem to have collected many children here Orochimaru-Sama, must be hard on you to manage them!"
Orochimaru squinted and glanced viciously towards Kuroto. Except for Haku, the other three kids are important for his research, so he wouldn't share them with anyone no matter what!
Kuroto ignored Orochimaru's vicious glare and continued with a smile, "I think the child named Haku seems a bit interesting, I hope you will allow me to take him to the Village!"
Orochimaru thought a little about Kuroto's request, he couldn't understand why would Kuroto choose Haku? The child that Orochimaru specifically doesn't value much.
Among the four, Yamato, Jugo, Kimimaro, and Haku, the simplest is Haku, therefore, Orochimaru didn't think that Kuroto's attention was on Haku, he thought that Kuroto was talking about the other three.
And Orochimaru also knows that Kuroto wouldn't have his eyes on Haku without a reason so he thought to himself, 'Is there something special about Yuki Haku that I wasn't able to see through?'
Kuroto noticed that Orochimaru had no intention to let Kuroto take Haku with him, so he decided to step back a bit, "If you are unwilling to allow me to take him permanently, how about a few months?"
