After a moment of silence, Orochimaru turned back and pointed to a small culture tank in a corner. "My Lord and I have the same idea. I have already started testing this technology."

"However, there is one thing I still want to say."

Orochimaru slowly walked up to the small culture tank, flicked the outer protective cover of the tank with his finger, and made a somewhat dull sound.

"I have named this research on technology the 'God Creation' project."

"Creating a god...you mean...?"

Hearing Akira Hatake's astonished words, Orochimaru's lips curled into a maniacal smile, the grin widening as he spoke.

Suddenly bursting into wild laughter, Orochimaru's crazed demeanor showed Akira Hatake what a true research fanatic really was.

"Humans are born as humans, and gods are born as gods, but who has ever stipulated that humans cannot become gods?"

He suddenly turned to look at Akira Hatake, "Akira, I think you are the most qualified to speak on this. Your current physical condition is a step from the essence of human life to the essence of divine life."

"If you can, why can't I?!"

"I know that my body is not as good as that of a wise ruler, nor can it match that of many ninjas who are known for their physical strength, but I have this."

Orochimaru tapped his forehead. "With this, I can make up for the regret of not being born a god in other ways!"

"That's a great idea."

Akira Hatake calmed himself down. "So, has your research made any progress?"

"I have made some progress, but it will take some time to fully realize my god-making plan."

Orochimaru's face showed a visible look of disappointment. "There are many things I haven't figured out yet, so it's a bit troublesome to put them into practice."

Then, Orochimaru's eyes became fanatical again, and he stared intently at Akira Hatake, as if trying to see through him from the outside in.

"With the help of a wise ruler, I think I can quickly realize my plan to create a god."

"You wouldn't be thinking of..."

“My lord, you have misunderstood.” Orochimaru shook his head. “I only need a little bit of your blood. You won’t give me anything else, no matter what I want.”

They do have some self-awareness.

Seeing that Orochimaru hadn't made any excessive demands, Akira Hatake naturally wouldn't pursue the matter.

With a slight nod, Akira Hatake agreed to Orochimaru's request.

However, despite agreeing, Akira Hatake had not forgotten the purpose of his trip.

"We can talk about the blood test later. I came here to ask you about the preparations for reviving Nohara Rin."

"We are ready and can revive Nohara Rin at any time."

"Alright, let's not delay, shall we begin now?"

“Alright.” Orochimaru nodded and continued leading the way. “My lord, follow me.”

Akira Hatake turned his wheelchair and continued to follow Orochimaru forward.

Soon, the two arrived at a relatively enclosed laboratory. On the experimental table in the center lay Nohara Rin, who was wearing the "Conqueror's Armor" full-body armor.

Continuing to turn the wheelchair, Akira Hatake approached Rin Nohara and poked her cheek with his finger.

The body, still bouncy and warm to the touch, is remarkably well-preserved, even after Rin Nohara lost her soul.

Retracting his finger, Akira Hatake continued to survey his surroundings.

Behind the test bench, Hanzo the Salamander was strapped to another test bench in a spread-eagle position.

The gas mask on his face had long been removed, and there was a tiny wound on his forehead.

"Hanzo the Salamander's forehead..."

"I destroyed part of Hanzo's brain, and that destroyed part of the brain tissue is where the human soul is hidden."

"You mean...the prefrontal cortex?"

"I didn't expect Your Majesty's knowledge to be so broad." Orochimaru looked at Akira Hatake with considerable surprise. "Indeed, the human soul is hidden in this part of the brain."

"By destroying this part, we can keep Hanzo's body active while allowing his soul to enter the Pure Land ahead of time, thus laying the foundation for the next step of soul infusion."

"I have a question."

Akira Hatake asked with some curiosity, "Since you damaged Hanzo's prefrontal cortex, how did Hanzo's body accommodate the new soul?"

"This is very simple."

Orochimaru's face was full of pride, "Once the damaged prefrontal cortex is repaired, the problem that the wise ruler is worried about will not exist."

"You mean...you can fix it?"

"Otherwise what?" Orochimaru said smugly. "Although I am not as good as Tsunade in terms of medical ninjutsu, I am no worse than Tsunade in terms of medical skills."

"Ha, I know you're an academic genius, so you don't need to show off anymore."

Akira Hatake made a comment, then looked at the edge of the experimental table where Hanzo of the Salamander was lying, where there was a cylindrical storage container made of chakra crystals.

"So what's inside this thing must be the soul of one of your former subordinates?"

"That's right, these are the souls of my fallen comrades that I carefully selected."

“One last question.” Akira Hatake looked up at the experimental table above where Hanzo of the Salamander was lying, where a very strange electronic instrument was displayed. “What is this?”

"The soul injector I just finished making a few days ago."

Orochimaru's face was full of smug satisfaction; at this moment, he was as proud as a peacock.

Orochimaru stepped forward and fiddled with the switches on the device, which then started up.

The moment the soul injector was activated, Akira Hatake noticed that the power source for the device was not electricity, but chakra.

A secondary chakra crystal, of much lower quality than the chakra crystal on Thor's Sword but containing a large amount of chakra, was shining brightly and continuously releasing its chakra energy.

He opened his mouth, wanting to ask about the price of the second-grade chakra crystal, but then swallowed the words back down.

It's definitely expensive; if you actually find out the price, you'll be the one who regrets it in the end.

Having abandoned his plan to create trouble for himself, Akira Hatake nodded to Orochimaru, indicating that Orochimaru could begin.

hum...

With a soft sound, the cylindrical storage jar displayed next to Hanzo the Salamander was opened, and a faint, gaseous humanoid silhouette was sucked into the soul injector.

Click.

A helmet-like device on the soul injector slowly descended and finally adhered to Hanzo the Salamander's forehead.

hum...

Another soft sound, and Hanzo the Salamander's body trembled violently, then, as if having an epileptic seizure, he struggled and trembled incessantly on the lab table.

Fortunately, the leather straps that secured Hanzo's body prevented it from detaching from the test bench.

After a long while, Hanzo, the struggling and trembling salamander, gradually calmed down, and his eyeballs began to react under his tightly closed eyelids.

"Lord Orochimaru..."

Hanzo the Salamander opened his eyes, his first words choked with emotion, "It's been over ten years... I can finally see you again..."

Sitting in his wheelchair, Akira Hatake curiously peered around. He knew that Hanzo the Salamander, who had been reawakened, had a body that was still his, but his soul belonged to someone else.

Looking back at Nohara Rin lying on another experimental table, Akira Hatake smiled slightly.

The long-planned resurrection operation is finally reaching its final stage...

Take a day off

I haven't been feeling well these past few days, and the quality of my writing has declined somewhat.

I'll take a day off to adjust and resume normal updates tomorrow.

Feel sorry……

Chapter 284 Orochimaru's Path to Godhood Through Technology.

Yamamura Ryuhei was a loyal former subordinate of Orochimaru.

He died in a battle during the Second Shinobi World War, and by chance, he was chosen by Orochimaru to possess the body of Hanzo the Salamander and be resurrected.

"Longping, how are you feeling?"

"Lord Orochimaru, I feel great, absolutely wonderful!"

Ryuhei Yamamura sat up from the experimental table, stretched Hanzo the Salamander's body, and showed a surprised and satisfied expression on his face.

"Try to mobilize the chakra in your body."

Orochimaru attached some sensor tips to Yamamura Ryuhei's body, saying, "I need to see how well your soul fits into this body."

"Yes, Lord Orochimaru!"

Yamamura Ryuhei nodded, obeying Orochimaru's orders without question.

"Very good, the chakra flows smoothly in the meridians."

Orochimaru glanced at the instrument connected to Yamamura Ryuhei and was quite satisfied with the values ​​displayed on it.

"To be able to mobilize 90% of the chakra of a brand new body is already the best result I could have imagined."

After making a brief comment, Orochimaru looked at Akira Hatake.

"My lord, should we revive Nohara Rin now, or wait a few more days?"

Upon hearing Orochimaru's question, Akira Hatake instantly understood Orochimaru's intentions.

Yamamura Ryuhei was, after all, the first person Orochimaru had to put into practice a theoretical and practical achievement. It would be a waste to send Yamamura Ryuhei to revive Nohara Rin without conducting some in-depth research.

Although Akira Hatake wanted to revive Rin Nohara as quickly as possible with the idea of ​​getting things done quickly.

However, he listened to Orochimaru's suggestion that he should stay in Yamamura Ryuhei's place for a while longer to collect more clinical trial data on the technology.

Therefore, Akira Hatake did not immediately reply to Orochimaru, but instead picked up the ball again.

"Orochimaru, what do you intend to do?"

“My lord, Longping is not only a former subordinate to me, but also the first beneficiary of this technology.”
