Naruto: The Uchiha's Scientific Madman

Three years later.

Country of Fields.

In a remote valley.

Several seemingly ordinary residential houses have come together to form a small village in the dense jungle.

This village has a population of about a thousand people.

Deep inside is a shrine, its fresh red paint on the torii gate still wet.

Several teenagers are working hard to level the ground in front of the shrine.

"Jugo, did you say Orochimaru-sama's reincarnation experiment was successful?"

A little boy with gray hair asked curiously.

This child looks strange; he has two heads.

"Shut up, Zakon!"

Another voice spoke up, rebuking the brother for his recklessness.

"Practice diligently."

"The things happening in the lab right now are beyond our control. Our only task is to cultivate and improve our strength as much as possible."

Jugo glanced at him and warned him.

The group consisted of newcomers who had recently joined the village, and Jugo was currently the leader.

With the support of natural energy, Jugo's strength increased the fastest.

Furthermore, after combining the perfect five-tomoe Heavenly Curse Seal developed by Orochimaru, he became even more proficient in the use of natural energy.

At such a young age, he has already touched the threshold of Sage Mode.

He is currently working hard to accumulate Sage Chakra within his body. As his chakra level increases to that of an elite Jonin, he will automatically be able to step into the threshold of Kage level.

Although everyone who came here thought he was the strongest.

He was only five years old when he already possessed the strength of a genin.

But in reality, Jugo himself knew that Kimimaro, who was sitting alone not far away and did not interact with others, was the strongest among the younger generation in the entire village.

According to Orochimaru, Kimimaro had perfectly mastered the Shikotsumyaku (Corpse Bone Pulse) and already possessed the strength of a Jonin.

After silencing the surrounding chatter, Jugo walked to Kimimaro's side and asked:

"Kimimaro, have you already begun your training with Lord Ao?"

When Aoko was raising them, he set a standard: as long as their chakra reserves and control reached the minimum requirements for Jonin, he would take them with him for training.

For the past three years, aside from eating and sleeping, the two of them have been working hard to increase their chakra levels.

Lord Ao was busy helping Lord Orochimaru cultivate his reincarnation body.

"not yet."

"I will only be taken out for training after Master Qing finishes this experiment."

"I wonder if Master Qing has created a perfect reincarnation vessel based on cloning technology."

Kimimaro replied, glancing at the setting sun on the horizon, recalling what Ao had told him a few days ago.

"It's been three days, the experimental results should be out soon."

Jugo patted Kimimaro on the shoulder, offering words of comfort.

He knew that Kimimaro had always wanted to go out for a walk, but without Lord Ao's permission, they could only stay inside the shrine.

Kimimaro's body has recovered quite well. Although he is not as robust as Jugo, he is now the same height as Jugo.

"Hey kid, where's Qing? I'm back from a mission, and these are some kids I brought back from outside."

A man with bandages wrapped around his body and a mask on his face returned from outside and called out to the children who were leveling the ground.

Behind him followed three children.

Jugo glanced at him.

"Qing is busy, leave the person to me."

The man glanced at him, his eyes full of disdain.

"You can take responsibility?! This is an important person that Lord Orochimaru specifically requested."

Although Jugo is exceptionally talented among the younger generation and is considered a steady and reliable individual, in the eyes of Orochimaru's old subordinates, he is merely an experimental subject.

He was by no means an important figure.

Many people in the Sound Village didn't take him seriously.

"Before Lord Xue returned, I was in charge of the younger generation in the entire village."

"I answered in a deep voice," Shigeo replied.

At five years old, he already possesses the air of someone who can stand on his own, thanks to Qing's guidance.

He will manage all the young people, arranging their daily practice and work.

In the entire Sound Village, everyone except children under two years old needs to complete training or work tasks in order to have food.

Those who disobey will be driven out of the village.

"You brat...you're nothing but a kept dog..."

The bandaged man tried to make a few more sarcastic remarks, but suddenly noticed a figure in the distance and his body trembled.

Minazuki Yuki came to Jugo's side and asked, "What happened?"

"Sister Xue, these are some children that Kazuo Kato brought back. They need to be handed over to the village."

Jugo replied, without saying anything more.

Many people in the village were Orochimaru's former subordinates in Konoha, and some were rogue ninja recruited from the surrounding areas.

The vast majority of them have an unruly personality.

They might take action if anything goes wrong.

As long as they don't cause trouble in the village, Orochimaru won't interfere.

When Lord Ao was alive, he dealt with these people, which made the village of Otogakure appear much more harmonious. But now that Lord Ao is gone, they have reverted to their old ways.

Two years ago, Minazuki Yuki came to the Land of Rice Fields alone and joined the small village founded by Orochimaru.

He became a cadre who stayed in the village.

She is mainly responsible for various affairs of the village's orphanage and also serves as a shrine maiden at the shrine.

All the children brought back from outside would be gathered at the shrine and raised there, where they would be taught some basic ninja training.

The villagers like to come to the shrine mainly because of Minazuki Yuki. She has a sweet appearance and a cool personality, which attracts many people's admiration.

"Get lost."

Xue knew the nature of these rogue ninjas well and knew they were nothing more than tools in Lord Qing's hands, so she didn't give them a friendly look.

If it weren't for the worry of ruining Master Qing's plans,

She had already killed all those disgusting bastards long ago.

Upon hearing these words, the Chunin named Kato Kazuo immediately left without stopping.

Minazuki Yuki squatted down and carefully examined the three children in front of her.

"What are your names?"

"My name is Jirobo."

"My name is Kadoi Ichiro."

"My name is Genyoumaru."

The children took turns saying their names.

When Xue heard the name Huan Youwan, her gaze suddenly turned towards it.

Lord Orochimaru once mentioned this name. It seems to be the heir of the Genyu family, possessing outstanding physical talent. I wonder how he differs from Jugo?

Genyuumaru is a boy with gray-white hair.

He looked to be only six or seven years old.

There were traces of chakra fluctuations within him; he appeared thin, but his eyes were filled with hatred.

"You've trained in chakra?"

Mizuki Yuki asked.

"Um."

"I am a member of the Illusionary Ghost Clan."

Huan Youwan replied coldly.

The entire family was arrested, and he was chosen to come here, not knowing what fate awaited him.

But for the safety of his family, he could not offer any resistance.

Looking into his hateful eyes, Mizuki Yuki inexplicably recalled the image of Mizuki Kagami.

It's been a long time since I've heard anything about Kirigakure. I wonder if Kagami is still alive.

He, like the child, was blinded by hatred.

Yuki couldn't help but think back to when they first arrived in the Land of Fire, when the three surviving members of the once close-knit group, Minazuki, eventually turned against each other.

She joined forces with Minazuki Kagami to eliminate the older member of the Minazuki clan.

They eventually broke up on the spot.

Kagami chose to become a wandering ninja, and she arrived at Otogakure following the guidance of the cursed seal.

"Come with me, I'll arrange a place for you to stay for now."

Minazuki Yuki gathered a few children and was about to lead them to settle down.

Suddenly, a commotion came from outside the village.

"Enemy attack!"

A loud warning rang out.
