Chapter 116 Great Harvest

(The description of the Sage Mode effect in the previous chapter has been slightly modified.)
Having achieved his goal, Li Ang exited Immortal Mode.

Ultimately, he wasn't there to fight Orochimaru.

Orochimaru had calmed down a bit by this time: "What kind of Sage Mode is this, Dragon Lord?"

This legendary Sannin was certainly curious about Sage Mode, otherwise he wouldn't have developed the Cursed Seal technique.

But even after searching through his memories, he couldn't find a matching immortal mode.

"Heh." Li Ang brushed off Orochimaru's question, "Isn't this just the Sage Mode from Ryuchi Cave? You haven't seen it before?"

Since it concerned his own secrets, he certainly couldn't tell the other party the truth.

Orochimaru paused for a moment, then put on what he thought was a friendly smile. "Dragon Lord really likes to joke."

"Now you can tell me the rest, right?"

Since the other party did not want to reveal anything about their abilities, he would not pry.

For Orochimaru, Sasuke Uchiha is still the most important person right now.

Upon hearing this, Li Ang glanced at the considerable amount of material and information he had already compiled and decided to reveal some information to reassure Orochimaru: "How much do you know about the Sage of Six Paths?"

"Six Paths Immortal?"

Orochimaru frowned slightly, wondering why the person in front of him had suddenly brought up this legendary figure.

However, Li Ang quickly answered his question: "The Sage of Six Paths is the child of the Goddess of the Rabbit, and he and his younger brother defeated her and sealed her away."

As for the reason…

"That goddess of the rabbit is a special existence in the starry sky called the Otsutsuki clan. Like the Hyuga, they are divided into the main family and the branch family. She is a member of the branch family, and her name is Otsutsuki Kaguya."

Upon hearing this, Orochimaru realized what was happening.

Combining what Li Ang had said earlier, he said in a strange tone, "That Goddess of the Rabbit killed the main family members?"

"Where's the motive?"

However, after seeing that Li Ang remained silent, Orochimaru knew that he would have to pay a price again.

"The Dragon Lord is being far too greedy."

Despite saying that, he still tossed a scroll to Li Ang.

"These are the ninjutsu techniques I've collected over the years. That should be enough for you to continue, Dragon Lord, right?"

After taking the scroll, Li Ang glanced at it briefly and discovered that it did not contain secret techniques such as Impure World Reincarnation or Corpse Reincarnation.

However, there are quite a few barrier techniques like the Four Purple Flame Formation, and the rest are ninjutsu such as Wind Release: Great Breakthrough.

Barrier techniques in the Naruto world are not weak. Konoha has a barrier strong enough to cover the entire village to prevent external enemies from invading.

Therefore, what Orochimaru handed over this time was still useful to Li Ang, so he continued: "The Otsutsuki clan will plant a divine tree in the starry sky, and then supply the divine tree with the energy of the planet, eventually bearing chakra fruits."

"However, only members of the main branch of the family can enjoy the Chakra Fruit, therefore..."

Even without Li Ang saying it, Orochimaru already understood what would happen next.

It's just the Otsutsuki clan, the God Tree, and the Chakra Fruit.
Orochimaru had never heard of these things before, which made him doubt their veracity for a moment.

After all, if it were true, it would indeed be considered the truth of the world.

A race capable of planting divine trees throughout the universe is undoubtedly countless times more powerful than the Sharingan.

“It seems you’ve already figured it out.” Li Ang shrugged. “After that Rabbit Goddess ambushed the main family members, she ate the chakra fruit that the Divine Tree bore.”

"However, in order to resist those who might come to investigate, she decided to create White Zetsu to serve as weapons."

Bai Jue?

Orochimaru was taken aback when he heard the name, and involuntarily thought of the black-and-white member of the Akatsuki organization.

“It’s the one you’re thinking of.” Li Ang confirmed Orochimaru’s guess, “but his situation is much more complicated than yours.”

"The raw material for White Zetsu is human, which is one of the reasons why the Sage of Six Paths and his brothers betrayed their mother."

That's it?

This was Orochimaru's first reaction, after all, he himself had conducted many human experiments.

So this Sannin didn't think anything of it.

Seemingly seeing through Orochimaru's thoughts, Li Ang explained: "Kaguya Otsutsuki controlled the entire world by releasing the Infinite Tsukuyomi through the Divine Tree. In other words, everyone is her raw material, which is why the Sage of Six Paths brothers could no longer tolerate it."

As for whether the old toad from Mount Myōboku was involved, Li Ang guessed that it probably was.

Calling it a seduction isn't quite accurate, since the divine tree will eventually drain the energy of the entire planet, and their fate won't be good then. Ultimately, it's just for self-preservation.

However, Orochimaru's expression was not very pleasant at this moment, because he heard a word that made him uncomfortable.

Unlimited monthly reading.

Orochimaru, who had once suffered a defeat under Itachi Uchiha's Tsukuyomi, had developed a bit of PTSD from this name.

Ignoring Orochimaru's thoughts, Li Ang continued, "After defeating Kaguya Otsutsuki, the Sage of Six Paths had two sons: Ashura, who inherited the Sage Body, and Indra, who inherited the Sage Eyes."

Orochimaru didn't know what a Sage Body was, but he did have Sage Eyes.
"Sharingan?"

Although it was a question, Orochimaru's tone was very confident.

"But what does this have to do with Uchiha Sasuke?" He still couldn't understand what Li Ang meant by the toxicity of chakra.

Upon hearing this, Li Ang casually revealed the truth: "Uchiha Sasuke is the reincarnation of Indra's chakra."

? ?
Orochimaru frowned instantly; it was the first time he had ever heard such a statement.

"So do you think the Sage of Six Paths would just watch you take over his child's body?"

"Of course." Orochimaru was about to answer when he realized something was wrong. "The Sage of Six Paths is still alive?!"

"Alive, and monitoring the ninja world from the Pure Land." Seeing Orochimaru's expression, Li Ang couldn't help but smile playfully. "Don't you know you can use the Impure World Reincarnation? You should know that souls stay in the Pure Land, right?"

This is why Li Ang hasn't obtained the Sharingan from Uchiha Sasuke at this stage.

After all, who knows if the Sage of Six Paths, that old bastard, will do anything rash after realizing he's a variable?

It's not impossible that they might give Sasuke Uchiha a power-up on the spot.

At this moment, Orochimaru had already frowned and fallen into deep thought.

If what the person in front of you is telling the truth, then it is indeed possible to say that Sasuke Uchiha's chakra is poisonous.

However, Orochimaru is not the type to believe everything he is told.

He managed to control his emotions slightly, and said with a forced smile, "I have no idea whether what the Dragon Lord said is true or false."

"Or do you have a way to help me with my health?"

Li Ang certainly didn't have any, but he could offer Orochimaru some ideas: "First, give me a copy of the materials and experimental data you've accumulated over the years."

"I can tell you how to acquire the power of the Otsutsuki clan."

At this point, he said meaningfully, "The Otsutsuki clan possesses a divine technique called Karma, which can turn others into vessels to completely revive oneself."

In Li Ang's view, this divine technique, the Wedge, was already somewhat like the ability of an information-state being.

Upon hearing Li Ang's words, Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly and began to consider the probability of capturing the person in front of him and then interrogating him.

But after a moment, he gave up on the idea.

The risk is too high and the reward is too low.

Moreover, he can cultivate the so-called materials again whenever he wants.

Thinking of this, Orochimaru revealed a fake smile: "I didn't expect that the Dragon Lord and I are the same kind of people. If there is an opportunity, we can conduct collaborative research."

He naturally interpreted Li Ang's request for materials as an indication that he also wanted to conduct an experiment.

Unfortunately, Li Ang was just preparing for his job change.

As the place Orochimaru uses most frequently now, this laboratory naturally stores most of the materials he previously collected.

Just as he was preparing the materials, Li Ang suddenly spoke up: "Don't even think about hiding the cells of the First Generation, the cells of the Uzumaki Clan, and the cells of the Kaguya Clan."

Orochimaru paused, surprised that the person behind him knew so much about the experimental project he was working on.

He originally intended to use some relatively ordinary experimental materials to get by.

Soon, a large number of bottles and jars were placed in front of Li Ang.

He picked up the jar labeled "Hashirama Senju" that was placed at the front and glanced at his job panel.

After discovering that the job change condition for [? ? ?] had changed to [2/1], I put it into my spatial ring.

Just as he expected, the job change process for [? ? ?] can use multiple materials.

After all the materials were collected, the information on the panel changed to [4/1].

To be honest, Li Ang wasn't sure at first whether the Kaguya clan and Kaguya Otsutsuki were related, because there was no concrete evidence in the original work.

But now it seems there is some connection.

'Now all that's missing is the Sharingan.'

Li Ang speculated that if he were to change jobs now, the resulting class would likely lean towards the Otsutsuki Hamura lineage.

Just as he was thinking this, Orochimaru spoke up: "Can the Dragon Lord speak now?"

Upon hearing this, Li Ang snapped out of his daze.

He then told Orochimaru about the relationship between the Senju, Uchiha, and Uzumaki clans and Kaguya Otsutsuki, and how to proceed was none of his business.

To be honest, the value of this information could probably only be obtained with such a generous reward from Orochimaru.

After the transaction was completed, Li Ang naturally had no reason to linger.

After agreeing on how to contact Orochimaru, he prepared to return to the Akatsuki's base.

Before leaving, he seemed to remember something and casually said, "By the way, you could try transplanting the First Hokage's cells into Uchiha Sasuke; you might be pleasantly surprised."

?

Before Orochimaru could react, Li Ang had already vanished.

'Strange guy.'

Was it merely to transplant the First Hokage's cells into Uchiha Sasuke?
Orochimaru's eyes flickered slightly. He decided to wait until he had verified the information about the person from earlier before making any further decisions.

He felt he hadn't lost out; he had only given up some data and materials that could be cultivated at any time.

If what the other party said is true
win!
