[Look at who finally decided to show himself. I thought you were in a closed training session. I didn't expect to see you soon.] said Orochimaru as soon as I sent him a chat request.
I may not admit it, but I missed this bastard a bit.
[I'm still training. I just decided to leave things to Shadow clones since they seemed to accelerate things.] I said.
[That's not a bad idea. But you would suffer some pain from the rush of energy. On the other hand, your body could learn from the clone's experience and cultivate the energy faster than before.] He replied.
[I know. It also enhances the size of chakra.]
[You may not know it, but it's a mix of physical and spiritual energy. So it increases when you cultivate as well.]
[I see.]
[I know that you are not here for a friendly chitchat. Do you have more interesting stuff?] Orochimaru asked, speaking business.
I looked into my storage, to the hair samples of Kai and Eri.
I then looked at my coins. They were still above a million.
[For now, nothing.] I said. [But I have a series of questions, if you don't mind.]
[I obviously mind. Do you think I have time?] he asked.
[Too bad. Remember the phasing quirk?] I asked.
[Yes.] he nodded.
[It's trash compared to what I can get.] I smiled.
I knew how to play on the nerves of the scientist.
[What did you want to ask about?] he asked, seeming to realize that I have something with greater potential.
[Cloning. Cloning technologies, especially the quirk parts.]
[Are you planning on giving up on our partnership?]
[I don't plan on giving up on you anytime soon.] I spoke. There is no way I give up on him. He's my factory. And he's a good brain.
[Then what do you need it for?]
[There is a guy without an overpowered quirk. Something that allows him to predict future prices in the general market. I want a copy of him.]
[Does it work in the system?] he asked.
[Unfortunately, no. The system is installed in my eye. But I still need a guy like him by my side.] I replied.
In Japan, there is a story of a famous man from the Samurai time, Munehisa Honma. Honma was a rice trader in old Japan. He was the first one to create Candlesticks and analyzed the chart of the market before it was known, a market before others knew how to manipulate it. That guy ended up with a 10-billion-dollar net worth by trading rice alone and earned a samurai title, plus the God of Market title.
With Night Eye's power and with the giant amount of money being exchanged in nowadays markets, I can get way more than 10 billion. It's not only rice that can be traded. There is gold, currency, crypto, and stocks.
'Night Eye wasted his potential on being a hero.'
Orochimaru sent a message. [Obviously, I can't sell you my cloning knowledge. But I can recommend where you can get it.]
[Where?] I asked.
[Level 3 worlds. They are advanced enough. Someone can sell you a cloning machine for half a million with one-time liquid. The machine is 50K. the liquid is 450k for a person.]
He did have a point. After all, from those worlds, I got a sleep mask that transferred me into a virtual reality where I could train all of my skills without exhausting my energies and still get muscle memories after that.
[Did you use it?] I asked him.
[And waste money and the chance for potential knowledge? No.]
[Talking about cloning, where are you on the phasing quirk project?]
[I created a clone and started experimenting on how to move his Kekki Genkai. I have managed to do some experiments on your friend and got the necessary cells. The quirk has a weakness of potential death when metalizing instantly while being in an object. But warriors won't find trouble controlling it. I managed to trade the cells with a daimyo for a large gold mine. Now, it would be launched in the market a few months later.]
[You son of a b] I clenched my fists.
A gold mine -- That's like having more than millions of coins if not more for free.
[Fufu… You were the one in a hurry. Glad I got exclusive rights. Fufu.]
[Come on, can't you throw me some coins.]
[You took 1.5 million. I haven't even made that back!]
[I was just trying. No need to get fried up. Anyway, I'll contact you later.]
[By the way, what kind of quirks were you talking about earlier?]
[Nothing really. There was a guy who can modify anything he touches on a molecular level.]
[What?]
[He could reform anything that he touches, including living beings. He could even kill them, turn them into a bloody mess, and bring them back to life instantly. He could change the terrain. And he could fuse people into himself.]
[You have it!] Orochimaru exclaimed.
For a crazy scientist, that quirk is worth more than all the gold in the world.
He could clone Kai, possess him, and then, fuse Madara's body to himself or modify himself. He could create special eyes by touching them.
If Kai had half of Orochimaru's biological knowledge, he would have been able to modify not just people's bodies but their DNA and give them quirks if he desired.
There was even the potential to change their species. Having a certain bloodline wouldn't be a trouble with Overhaul. Let's not forget the battle applications. If he had a fight with any overpowered character, it's either him one-shotting them or them one-shotting him.
I made a mocking remark. [There is a chance to get it. just enjoy your earnings from your exclusive 100% fasting power earning.]
[When can you get it?] he asked.
[Who knows?] I mocked. I already have it.
I laughed. The dude sounded like he was about to wet his pants.
At any rate, Orochimaru seemed to understand the potentials. Since he was rolling in money right now, I decided to let him earn more before making a deal with him.
I opened the chat for worlds level 3, worlds so advanced that they did use magic for everything. I left in the chat that I desired to have some cloning machine that's capable of cloning a human with a field.
There were offers from different people who claimed to be Archmages and Tower Masters.
I chatted with one of them and asked how magical cloning would work.
He said that I needed to place a DNA sample in it, place the liquid, and enter the regulations such as age and height and more.
There was even an option to modify a certain characteristic. If the person you clone is a male, you could simply modify the chromosome and create a female. If you know biology, you could make a certain change in DNA sequences, which could mess up the quirk. You could also write the brain for loyalty beforehand to whoever they see when they wake up and have them get new memories if you know illusion magic, which was unnecessary since I had Sharingan.
'Night Eye is 2 meters already. Having his clone being a female would just attract attention. And having him as male will do that as well. I fear that if I modified the DNA the clone wouldn't have the ability to see the future.'
I rubbed my forehead.
Still.
'Even If I get a clone, where would they live? How can I get them an ID? Forget it. Where would I place a cloning machine in the first place? I need a warehouse.'
'But with future sight with me, I can control the market.'
[Are you going to buy?] Asked the mage that I was chatting with.
[450k, right.] I asked. Originally, the price was 500 k, but went lower after a negotiation.
[Just for you.] he said as he sent me an exchange request.
After confirming the order, I paid around 360k, thanks to my discount, and got a cloning machine with a liquid. They were in my storage now.
'Now time to think of a way to solve the problems I have in hand.'
