Chương 104: Orochimaru’s Preparations (FLASHBACKS ONLY!)
-----------------------
Author's Note
There will be a regular Chapter Upload at usual time or maybe a bit later, since I have not started typing out the chapter just yet. This chapter is to refresh memories for those who have forgotten the build up chapters and those who skipped the training chapter arcs completely for being Sasuke haters. It was not my intention to do so, read chapter 114 comments, people were freakin confused about how orochimaru revived Minato. So for those who hate flashbacks, if you are pissed off, close this chapter now. Drop at your own risk!

FlashBack Chapter 53
In a cave below a mountain…far away….
"Kabuto!"
"Yes! Orochimaru-sama!"
"Have you prepared the five bodies yet?" Orochimaru asked as he kept Four Kunais by the side of the table with talismans attached to them, which had characters written in blood.
Kabuto walked towards Orochimaru as he pointed out in a particular direction.
Orochimaru and Kabuto then walked together towards the place Kabuto had pointed.
…
They arrived at a small room which was barren with about five human bodies lying on the floor that had been bound up in ropes, while they lied down in almost complete silence, except for the fact that they took weak breaths.
"Comatose condition as requested, Orochimaru-sama!" Kabuto said as he drew one of the bodies towards Orochimaru.
Orochimaru smiled as he took out a particular scroll from a snake's mouth, within his sleeve.
He then opened the scroll and performed the tiger seal.
HAH!
(Poof!)
A small cloud of smoke appeared following which the organ appeared on the scroll.
Orochimaru lifted the organ with care, slowly as he placed it in his hands very carefully like it was the most precious thing in the world.
He then approached the body that was lying nearby and placed the organ gently on the body's chest.
Orochimaru then looked towards Kabuto and said.
"Kabuto!"
"If this works out, then we are going to head out to an abandoned village," Orochimaru said as he brought his hands together.
Kabuto watched patiently, while Orochimaru did this.
< Tiger > < Snake > < Dog > < Dragon >
Orochimaru then clapped his hands as he finished the hand seals.
< Summoning Technique - Impure World Reincarnation. >
(Whoosh!)
Matters from nearby started gathering quickly onto the body of the bound man, swiftly altering the looks of the man.
Soon, it formed a figure, upon which Orochimaru displayed a very happy smile.
"How nice of you to join us…"
Orochimaru said as he approached the body.
The matters around the area gathered at a much higher speed as it completely transformed with all features becoming visible.
"Third Kazekage of the Iron Sand." Orochimaru smiled….

FlashBack Chapter 56
A few kilometers away from the hidden leaf village, two figures were traveling at high speed across the forest towards a particular direction.
"Orochimaru-sama!"
"What is it? Kabuto!"
"Where are we going?"
"You will find out soon!" Orochimaru said as the duo proceeded for a while.
…
Soon the duo arrived at a place of ruins.
"Orochimaru-sama?"
"This is?" Kabuto asked.
"The Hidden Eddy village!" Orochimaru answered as he proceeded along a direction, near the outskirts of the village.
"We are here!" Orochimaru stopped in a place.
"A temple?" Kabuto asked.
"Not just any temple, but the Uzumaki clan Noh Mask Hall," Orochimaru said as he approached towards a particular area.
"Masks?" Kabuto looked towards Orochimaru who picked a specific mask,
Orochimaru and Kabuto then proceeded towards the center of the temple hall.
Orochimaru turned towards Kabuto,
"Summon two bodies from the remaining four."
"Mm," Kabuto nodded as he summoned a giant scroll.
He then placed it onto the floor and opened it.
Inside were two huge seals till the part the scroll had opened.
Kabuto moved his finger towards his face and bit on it.
He then drew the blood over the two seals in the scroll.
< Summon! >
(poof!)
(poof!)
Two bodies appeared.
Orochimaru took out a small scroll with three seals on it.
He used the Tiger hand seal and summoned form the scroll.
A dried piece of flesh appeared on his hand.
Orochimaru then reached into his pocket and handed over a kunai with a talisman on it along with the flesh to Kabuto.
"Be ready to use the kunai when I give the signal," Orochimaru ordered, to which Kabuto nodded.
Orochimaru then placed the mask over his face.
(katcha!)
(katcha!)
Orochimaru's hands moved like they were possessed as they slowly raised in the air and were fixated on a certain height. (T)
A stream of eerie laughter was heard, after which a ghost appeared in an astral form behind Orochimaru with a dagger in its mouth.
< Forbidden Summoning Jutsu - Reaper Death God Possession! >
Orochimaru controlled the reaper death god to remove the dagger from its mouth and forced open the stomach.
A blue color humanoid Astral form flew out.
Orochimaru released the summoning and exited out of his body in his original snake form and transferred it to one of the two bodies that were nearby.
Orochimaru then woke up and took the flesh from Kabuto's hand as he walked towards the remaining body.
Orochimaru bent down and placed the flesh and then brought his hands together.
< Tiger > < Snake > < Dog > < Dragon >
Orochimaru then clapped his hands as he finished the hand seals.
< Forbidden Summoning Technique - Impure World Reincarnation. >
Matters from nearby started gathering quickly onto the bound body, swiftly altering the looks of the body.
Soon, it formed a yellow-haired figure, upon which Orochimaru displayed a pleased smile.
"Where am I? Isn't this…." Orochimaru signaled Kabuto, who instantly appeared behind Minato and slammed the kunai into the body.
Minato's facial expression froze.
While Orochimaru's own reached the peak of happiness.
"I've successfully turned him into a killing puppet," Orochimaru smirked.

FlashBack Chapter 58
Back in the Uzumaki Clan Noh Mask Hall….
Orochimaru packed up the scroll after storing the body on the floor.
Kabuto also helped him in the cleanup process.
Soon, after they were done…
Orochimaru reached into his pocket for a scroll.
"Kabuto!"
"Yes! Orochimaru-sama!" Kabuto responded.
Orochimaru handed over a small red scroll to Kabuto.
"Take this,"
"This is?" Kabuto asked.
"This is the plan for that day for the sand ninjas."
"Hand this scroll over to that squad's jounin leader Baki," Orochimaru said.
"Orochimaru-sama!"
"Are you sure about this," Kabuto asked.
Orochimaru looked towards the direction of Hidden Leaf village with an arrogant gaze.
"The recent peaceful times has put the country in slumber…"
"While all the other nations are busy racing to expand their military."
"Mm," Kabuto nodded.
"Though I don't know how much fun it would be to take out that old man," Orochimaru smirked.
"Is that so?"
"To me, it looks like you still have hesitations about it," Kabuto said, causing Orochimaru to frown.
"From now on, the power of each hidden village will clash with one another in a long and violent manner."
"The sound village is also one of them…"
"You intend to be the trigger for all that…"
"and use him for a bullet."
"our Sasuke…right?" Kabuto said while his face looked forwards whereas his eyes looked at Orochimaru through the corner of his spectacles.
Orochimaru snickered.
"But Orochimaru-sama!"
"Why not go after Naruto-kun."
"Clearly that boy is far more powerful than Sasuke, not to mention he has the nine tails as well, and he is an Uzumaki, albeit he doesn't have the red hair trait."
"I mean, you get the Uzumaki bloodline to experiment on, a young body and a weapon of destruction for the sound village, making it be on par with the other hidden villages," Kabuto said.
"Naruto is not easy to control…"
"He is extremely strong for a kid his age, and also has a good judge of character, unlike the gullible geezer in the village who believes in solving through conversations."
"Besides, You already know the pains we have gone through to make sure to have a proper countermeasure against the boy."
"To think there was a Jutsu as interesting as making a contract with the god of death himself."
"Truly, that first attempt was a wasted effort."
Orochimaru thought back to how he had failed in awakening the Fourth Hokage on the previous day due to his soul not being present in his body.
"Yeah!" Kabuto agreed.
"Kabuto!"
"Despite the problem of facing Naruto, there will be a bigger problem if we took him," Orochimaru said.
"You mean…" Kabuto prompted.
"The Akatsuki!" Orochimaru said.

FlashBack Chapter 61
Somewhere in the Hidden Leaf, a place filled with grassland and graves….
There were two figures near a particular grave.
One was squatting down with flowers in hand while the other stood behind and observed.
Orochimaru placed the flowers over his parent's grave.
"Hmm" Orochimaru saw a strange thing over the grave and took it in his hand.
"What is this?" Orochimaru asked as he turned towards Hiruzen and presented his hand with the mysterious object.
"It's the skin of a white snake," Hiruzen explained
"I've never... seen anything like it before," Orochimaru said in a curious voice.
"Hahaha!" Hiruzen laughed lightly…
"It's a rare item that you almost never see…." Hiruzen said.
"Why is it white?" Orochimaru asked.
"No one really cares about such things…"
"But from times past, the white snake has been a symbol of good luck and renewal."
"It must be some sort of Karma for you to find it here."
"Maybe someday…"
"You'll meet them when you're grown up" Hiruzen smiled towards Orochimaru.
...
Hiruzen then thought back to the time when Orochimaru was caught when he was performing lab test using human subjects.
How his summoning the Monkey King had told him that he was too soft on Orochimaru that he had let Orochimaru get away with it.
("There is no time for regrets…")
Hiruzen then looked towards Hayate.
"I understand…"
"Go back to your duty, from now on this is my concern!" Hiruzen declared.
"Yes!"
Hayate left the room, while Hiruzen turned towards the window yet again.
("Orochimaru!")
("This time I will perform my duty as a teacher, and teach you the lesson you were meant to be taught in the first place!")
Hiruzen sat back down on his Hokage seat.
His eyes looked around the room, finally pausing onto a yellow-haired figure in a picture.
….
In a meeting room, all seats were occupied, mostly separating into two factions.
One side was the ministers on the fire country while the other side was the high ranking elders from Hidden Leaf village.
"How regrettable…"
"The third Hokage was doing such a fine job…" The Daimyo said as he held a fan in his hand, lightly swinging it at his face.
"We need a Hokage who will change things, and enforce the law of ninjas."
"We need such a person," Danzo spoke out in a determined voice.
"And? Is there such a person?" The Daimyo asked.
Danzo stared at the Daimyo.
"Truth be told, the third Hokage was too soft…"
"He allowed the village to be pushed into a corner."
"I recommend, Orochimaru of the legendary sanin !" Danzo declared.
"Oh!"
"…"
"…"
The ministers on the fire countryside started to discuss the possibilities…
"Orochimaru is truly a genius in this age of war…" Hiruzen said,
The Daimyo looked at both Hiruzen and Danzo before asking Hiruzen to continue….
"However… A sinister will and greed lurk deep behind those eyes."
"Such a person cannot be recommended as Hokage…" Hiruzen said with confidence.
"I recommend Namikaze Minato!" Hiruzen concluded.
….
….
("Minato!")
('Thanks to unveiling you as an option for Hokage, I am now able to suspect, one person who would be willing to work for Orochimaru…")
("Danzou, don't disappoint me!") Hiruzen thought in his mind,

FlashBack Chapter 70
Somewhere along the borders of the wind nation….
In a forest, near a particular tree, there was a was a tunnel entrance to an underground settlement.
Hah!
Hah!
Hah!
Kabuto panted as he stared at the second Hokage's body.
"Kabuto, I made no mistake in picking you up, that's for sure." Orochimaru smiled at Kabuto.
"No, no!"
"The credit all goes to you Orochimaru-sama!" Kabuto praised Orochimaru.
"The first's cells and repeated trial over the past days…"
"Truly, hard work has paid off," Orochimaru said as he stared at the kunais which had talismans attached to them.
"I suppose there is no use for these Talisman's then…."
"The Second's jutsu has been perfected by you Orochimaru-sama."
"I am sure he's happy to have a very dedicated disciple like you!" Kabuto said as he stared at Orochimaru.
"This is no longer the second's jutsu."
"His jutsu could only make the dead ones retain about 20-30% of their powers from their prime."
"But this jutsu, not only does it retain 90% power from prime but also Unlimited Chakra!"
"Best of all, one doesn't need to use talismans to keep emotions in check!"
Orochimaru said as he approached Minato's reanimation and removed the kunai with talisman from the back of the body.
He then re-summoned Minato from the dead with the improved Reincarnation jutsu.
The matters in the surrounding area started to gather around the reincarnation body, forming a somewhat bandaged version of the corpse compared to the complete version from before.
Orochimaru was satisfied with the result.
"Now, the only problem that remains is summoning the First." Orochimaru thought as he looked towards the First Hokage's reincarnation body.
"Naruto! Sarutobi-sensei! Your days of ninja will be over within a week." Orochimaru grinned.

FlashBack Chapter 74
Few Hours Earlier….
In a lab located underground.
Kabuto was busy experimenting with the first Hokage's corpse which was strapped to a bed.
The corpse was struggling to get out of the seals that were placed all over the body.
Hah!
Kabuto used Hashirama's cells to try and bind the soul from gaining control of its own body, but he appeared to be losing to it.
"Not good!" Kabuto rushed to the nearby table to grab the Kunai with a red talisman and implanted it into the First Hokage's Corpse.
Soon, the body stopped wriggling and became stable.
(Whew!) Kabuto cleaned the sweat away from his forehead.
....
Kabuto approached Orochimaru who was sitting on an enormous chair in an empty room that was lit by a large lamp that was next to him.
"Orochimaru-sama!"
"The First Hokage can only be controlled if we use the Talisman to eradicate his emotions," Kabuto said excitedly.
"Hmmm….." Orochimaru stared at the space in front of him.
"What is it? Orochimaru-sama?" Kabuto asked in a concerned manner.
"Kabuto!"
"Will there be any reduction in the strength of the techniques it can potentially use?" Orochimaru asked.
Kabuto adjusted his glasses as he said.
"I can guarantee that there will be no reduction in strength, neither will there be any hesitation in his actions."
"He is a ruthless killing machine, once we release him," Kabuto said with a hint of mockery that was aimed towards those who were supposed to be at the receiving end of the First Hokage.
"Kabuto!"
"It's about time we leave," Orochimaru said.
"Okay!" Kabuto said as he walked past Orochimaru to the door.
"Kabuto!" Orochimaru called out.
"Yes, Orochimaru-sama!" He responded.
"Let's take that kid for a spin…" Orochimaru hinted.
"Your previous vessel is it?" Kabuto asked.
"Mm…." Orochimaru nodded while he gave a wretched smile to which Kabuto smiled back as he proceeded to do what Orochimaru had requested of him…
