Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

Danzo's expression darkened upon hearing Orochimaru's explanation: "Orochimaru, you're the one who exposed Uchiha Ryougo's affair, aren't you? How could you let such a thing become public knowledge?"

Orochimaru shook his head: "Not me? I'm not that stupid. If I had known he and Hiruko were researching the art of immortality, I would have caught them immediately."

Danzo and Orochimaru were both puzzled. Who was so wicked? Why did they keep going to the village committee to report them?

After giving Orochimaru his instructions, Danzo was about to leave.

Orochimaru stopped him: "Danzo, send me another batch of test subjects. We've already used up the last batch."

Danzo snorted, recalling Sarutobi's earlier roar at him.

Without hesitation, he retaliated against his most favored disciple: "Orochimaru, do you really think human lives are like leeks? You can just harvest one crop and another will grow back."

Orochimaru sneered without turning his head: "Isn't that right? The ninja world is in turmoil, and war is endless. In a place like the Land of Rain, a bowl of porridge can save a life."

Danzo paused for a moment, then asked, "Orochimaru, you've been using up a lot of supplies lately. What exactly have you been doing?"

Orochimaru said, "I didn't do anything, I just wanted to deduce the forbidden technique of Liaowu. Danzo, you also want to live forever, don't you?"

Danzo's breathing became a little heavy. He said, "Okay, I'll have someone send you another batch, but be careful with it."

"Soon, Root will be cooperating with Hanzo, and then it will be harder to capture the refugees from the Land of Rain."

Orochimaru nodded: "I understand!"

Danzo left with only one sentence: "Hiruzen is already wary of you, Orochimaru, you'd better watch your step!"

After Danzo left, Orochimaru snorted, "You old codger, you think you can live forever?"

After the people of Root brought a group of refugees from the Land of Rain, Orochimaru selected a few strong ones and swallowed them into his giant snake. Then, the figures left Root's base.

"Follow me, Lord Danzo wants to know why Orochimaru needs so many people?"

The Root members followed, but Orochimaru disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Orochimaru arrived at his base outside the village and carefully prepared the Impure World Reincarnation ritual. He then summoned a living person paralyzed by snake venom from the snake's belly.

After the incantation seals and spells were all drawn,

Orochimaru placed a living person, along with a white skin fragment that was previously thought to be Liao Wu's body tissue, into the technique, then suddenly bit his finger, drawing blood.

Yin-Si-Xu-Chen...

"The Impure World Reincarnation Technique!"

"Ahhhhh—"

The living person screamed in agony, as if their soul and body were about to be possessed.

The Impure World Reincarnation technique mark glowed with white chakra light, seemingly the light of a pure land from the underworld.

Orochimaru's eyes were filled with surprise.

Resurrect, my Liaowu!

But then, the light vanished, and the living person in the spell dissipated into scraps of paper.

Orochimaru's eyes widened: "No, that's impossible, we already succeeded."

"Could it be—"

Orochimaru retrieved the white body tissue for close examination. If his technique had failed, there was only one possibility: this was not Liao Wu's DNA tissue.

"Hmph! Luckily, I was prepared!"

Orochimaru then took a bunch of body cells he had found in Liao Wu's house, including his scalp, the bowls and chopsticks he had used, and even paper from the State of Lu.

The Impure World Reincarnation technique requires a certain amount of DNA and cell tissue from the impure being; naturally, the more the better.

Orochimaru arranged all of Liao Wu's messy relics in the spell, and then summoned a living person.

"The Impure World Reincarnation Technique!"

At the same time, Tsunade found Liao Wu's stolen goods, namely the explosive tags he had drawn, in the Uchiha clan's territory.

Tsunade's eyes narrowed. She had a good memory and clearly remembered the explosive tag that Liao Wu had swallowed that day.

Like the explosive symbols he drew, they were all of the same style.

These counterfeit detonators are still distinguishable from genuine ones.

No one expected Liao Wu to be so cunning, even drawing the detonating tags himself.

In that case...

"Liao Wu is not dead!"

"That kid isn't dead—"

Orochimaru smiled darkly, thinking this was the biggest joke ever—a mere Chunin had actually fooled the Sannin and even the Yellow Flash?

Well done! What a brilliant Liaowu!

Orochimaru, with a scientist's mindset, felt it was too early to draw conclusions.

This was his first time using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, and if he couldn't master it, then all his deductions would be wrong.

There must be a reference group!

Orochimaru then took out Hiruko's corpse, which he had stolen from the Konoha morgue.

Anyone who has ever killed someone knows that killing is easy, but disposing of the body is difficult.

Liao Wu had thrown Biluhu into the toilet, but the Inuzuka family's dog still found him and smelled Liao Wu's scent, thus convicting Liao Wu of murdering his fellow villagers.

The smell was rather strong. Orochimaru had a crumpled piece of paper stuck in his nose, preparing to perform a jutsu.

But there's no other way; if you want to get what you want, you have to endure suffering that most people can't bear.

To endure what ordinary people cannot endure—that is the mark of a ninja.

Although Orochimaru scoffed at Jiraiya's methods, he secretly endured everything alone.

While Jiraiya was indulging in debauchery at brothels, he spent his time in a dimly lit laboratory surrounded by rotting corpses.

While Tsunade was being slaughtered at the casino, he was diligently learning Konoha's forbidden techniques.

In terms of patience, he was more patient than all the ninjas in the village.

Because Orochimaru, like Madara Uchiha, was someone who transcended base desires.

In their eyes, there is only success.

"The Impure World Reincarnation Technique!"

This time, it was a success!

Orochimaru's face lit up with joy. Although he had failed to revive Liao Wu, he had mastered the Impure World Reincarnation technique, so Orochimaru now had a trump card to play.

As soon as he regained consciousness, Beiliuhu turned around and greeted him loudly and warmly.

"Liao Wu, you alpaca!"

Orochimaru?!

"What's wrong with me?"

Looking at his body, which seemed to be stitched together like pieces of porcelain, Hiruko felt that his body was as stiff as a puppet.

Hiruko looked at Orochimaru, whose nose was stuffed with paper.

"Orochimaru, what exactly did you do to me?"

Orochimaru chuckled coldly, "Hiruko, isn't it obvious? I resurrected you using the Second Hokage's forbidden technique, and from now on you are my puppet."

"Puppet? Damn it!"

Hiruko's stiff face couldn't produce an unpleasant expression, but his tone revealed his bad mood.

Hiruko was jealous of the achievements of the Sannin. He was a contemporary of the Sannin, but could only sit at the children's table.

This is also why he wanted to study the Demon Sprout Technique and surpass the Three Ninjas.

Like Liao Wu, he was petty and couldn't stand seeing his classmates driving Land Rovers!

However, Hiruko felt that Orochimaru didn't restrict him that much, and that he was free to move around.

"Ninjutsu——"

Just as Hiruko was about to use her technique, Orochimaru grabbed her by the neck.

"Hiruko, don't try any tricks on me!"

Unlike Rikuo and Ryou, although he was not as talented as the Three Ninjas, it did not mean that he was less talented than the others.

He is a Jonin, and a very hardworking and ambitious one at that.

Being backstabbed by Liao Wu, such a frail ninja, was the greatest humiliation of his life.

This kid has always liked to stand behind people since he was little. If you didn't know him, you'd think he didn't like being in the spotlight, but it turns out he was just looking for the right angle.

Although Hiruko was a Jonin, the ninja in front of him was Orochimaru, an elite Jonin who was among the strongest in the ninja world.

Hiruko was utterly powerless against Orochimaru, glaring at him with such rage he was practically grinding his teeth to dust: "Orochimaru!"

Orochimaru looked at Hiruko with a cold smile, thinking to himself that the Impure World Reincarnation technique was good, but the impure body summoned did not obey the summoner.

We also need to prepare puppet talismans in advance!

"Hiruko, you are dead now. I pulled you out of the Pure Land. You must listen to me."

"Orochimaru, give up on that idea. I will not cooperate with you."

Hiruko glared at Orochimaru with hatred.

Beiliuhu can cooperate with Liaowu because Liaowu is not doing as well as him.

However, Hiruko was jealous of Orochimaru and Jiraiya. He thought that if he had a teacher like the Third Hokage, his achievements would be no less than theirs.

Orochimaru suddenly laughed and said, "Hiruko, it was Ryougo who killed you. Don't you want to seek revenge?"

"Liao Wu!!"

Hiruko muttered Liaowu's name in a low voice, his hatred even greater than his hatred for Orochimaru.

"Where is that kid? He stole my Ghost Sprout Technique and has now defected, hasn't he?"

"hehe……"

Orochimaru sneered. He was also very interested in the Oni-Garaku Technique, a secret technique that could steal another's bloodline limit.

However, compared to Liao Wu's immortality secret technique, which originated from the Gui Ya Luo technique, the Gui Ya Luo technique is somewhat insignificant.

Stealing someone else's bloodline limit is a forbidden technique in the ninja world; Orochimaru can even replicate it using technology.

Liao Wu's secret technique for immortality is clearly more amazing than Orochimaru's Reanimation Jutsu, and it is a forbidden technique that must be obtained.
