Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

"Nidaime-sama..."

Liao Wu seemed somewhat lost in thought.

Tobirama looked at Ryou's appearance and snorted, "I always thought you looked like Izuna, and sure enough, you've grown up to be a carbon copy of Izuna, with the same evil eyes."

The Uchiha lad stood at attention quite consciously.

Because Tobirama was not only the Hokage of the village, but also the principal of the Ninja Academy at the time.

When he was the principal, he gave several lessons to Ryou and Tsunade.

At that time, Tobirama particularly liked targeting Ryou, who had Uchiha blood.

Every time he attended one of his classes, Liao Wu would be required to sit in the front row, and Tobirama would often call on Liao Wu to answer questions.

Liao Wu remembered most vividly the time when his answer to Tobirama was unsatisfactory, and Tobirama made him copy the Will of Fire hundreds of times.

That's disgusting how he copied it.

So when Ryogoku met Tobirama, it was like meeting his homeroom teacher from his school days.

Just standing there, you feel like the other person is wearing a 100,000-year soul ring and pressuring you down.

Tobirama scoffed again, "You brat, why did you become a rogue ninja?"

Liao Wu scratched his head and said, "Second Generation Leader, I was forced into this! My research into forbidden techniques was exposed, and if I didn't run away, I'd be in jail!"

"What forbidden technique are you researching?"

Tobirama already knew from Orochimaru what forbidden technique Ryou was researching.

However, in order to prevent Orochimaru from creating his own information cocoon, Tobirama needs to verify with Ryougo whether Orochimaru is just making things up.

Liao Wu said, "It's a forbidden technique to fix my physical defects, but a few bandits and tyrants were sacrificed during the research."

"I think it's an honor for them; their deaths contributed to the development of ninjutsu."

Orochimaru nodded in understanding, and Tobirama also nodded.

No problem, Orochimaru even felt that Liao Wu was a bit indecisive.

Where do all these bad people come from in this world? Aren't they all just based on their own subjective definitions?

Since it's a matter of personal opinion, I, Orochimaru, say that everyone except me is a bad person.

Then everyone would be my experimental subjects.

"It's just that the forbidden technique being researched has some minor flaws. It requires taking cells from others to repair these flaws, and at the same time, it can obtain more cells and achieve more cell division."

"Theoretically speaking, this is the secret to immortality, which is why it has attracted the covetousness of many people, and I naturally became a hot commodity."

Tobirama nodded.

The key point is not that Liao Wu researched forbidden techniques, but that Liao Wu researched forbidden techniques for immortality.

This is an unethical and forbidden technique that disrupts the balance of yin and yang and life and death.

If taking one person's life grants immortality, then all ordinary people will become livestock kept by the powerful and wealthy, allowing them to live even longer.

Loneliness and death are the two fairest things in the world.

Liao Wu spread his hands and said, "Originally, I planned to use this forbidden technique by myself and not tell anyone."

"But I didn't expect Madara to find out. He wrote a letter to the Hokage's office to report me, making it known to everyone."

"Now I have no choice but to run!"

Tobirama asked in confusion, "Didn't you know Madara from the beginning?"

Liao Wu shook his head: "I don't even know that old monster, okay? I don't want to stay in Konoha, but I don't want to be controlled by that old devil even more."

"I came to Ryuchi Cave to learn Sage Mode to break free from Madara's control!"

"I see!"

Tobirama suddenly realized that his hostility towards Ryou was lessened.

According to Tobirama, Ryougo and Madara should have known each other for a long time, with Ryougo being Madara's mole planted in Konoha.

He stole the Senju family's medical records and used them to develop the forbidden life-saving technique to revive Madara.

But according to Liao Wu, his encounter with Ban was just an accident.

Liao Wu acted solely on his own initiative during the first half of his life, without being controlled by Ban.

His research into forbidden techniques and his involvement in human experimentation were taboo for others, but nothing to Tobirama.

Tobirama himself was even more ruthless than Ryōe.

Moreover, the forbidden technique was developed to save himself; the essence of life is to do everything possible to live.

Liao Wu is correct!

Before encountering freckles, I was a normal person; the turning point came after I encountered them.

Tobirama asked, "Why did you revive Madara?"

Liao Wu replied, "Because I was controlled by Madara's cursed seal at the time, and I had to revive him. Moreover, I knew that I would die if I returned to Konoha."

"The righteous and the evil paths either seal away my techniques or try to steal my head to refine them."

"I can only survive by joining Madara. Without Madara, I will face countless hunts from the ninja world."

Tobirama crossed his arms and said, "For you, reviving Madara is inevitable!"

Liao Wu nodded: "It was both accidental and inevitable! If it weren't for Ban, I might have found a place to hide and wait until I was strong enough..."

Liao Wu was a little embarrassed to say it.

Tobirama pressed, "What will you do after you become powerful enough?"

Liao Wu replied, "Of course I'm out here to rob money and women. Isn't all this hard work researching forbidden techniques just so I can enjoy myself?"

"If I can't enjoy myself, why should I work so hard?"

"Strong desires inevitably generate terrifying drive! Desire drives me, so naturally I must respond to my desires!"

"..."

Orochimaru and Tobirama were dumbfounded. They had thought that Ryougo would achieve something, such as conquering the world and establishing a dynasty.

I never imagined that all this guy could think about was women and money.

"Vulgar, utterly vulgar!"

Tobirama's cold assessment.

Orochimaru scoffed, "Ryo, you're actually using the art of immortality for something like this? Wouldn't it be better to use that to pursue the truth of ninjutsu?"

"Smells good, my foot!"

Liao Wu spat and retorted to Orochimaru, "Orochimaru, you're such a ninjutsu-obsessed guy, you've probably never tasted a woman, right?"

"I'm asking you, have you ever been to a brothel?"

"..."

Orochimaru fell silent.

Orochimaru can't even be considered sexually frigid; his soul has been transformed into an anomaly.

Even if the most beautiful woman in the world stripped naked in front of him, Orochimaru would only see a pile of rotten flesh.

Strip away the skin, and you're left with nothing but 206 bones; put on clothes, and you can have 18,000 different appearances.

Seeing a beautiful woman as if she were a skeleton makes one devoid of desire.

Liao Wu mocked Orochimaru: "Orochimaru, you've never been an adult. The adult world is too complicated for you."

Orochimaru sneered: "For a woman, he'd be all grovel at her the slightest hint of temper, insisting on finding a connection even when they have nothing in common."

"Ridiculous! In my eyes, you're nothing more than a puppet controlled by genetic code!"

"With so much time and energy, we should use it to do what we love and pursue a bigger world!"

"ah?!"

Liao Wu was taken aback; he had to admit that Orochimaru was right.
