Starting as a working person from Naruto

Chapter 122 Rasengan!

Time flies.

While continuing his training with Akihara Kagura, Jiraiya also searched for Orochimaru's whereabouts and diligently investigated the whereabouts of the prophesied child.

Unfortunately, that was not the case.

Jiraiya only found two of Orochimaru's experimental bases, rescued the living people who were being used as experimental subjects, destroyed the laboratories, but did not see Orochimaru.

This was quite lucky for Jiraiya, because he happened to hear about someone going missing in a small town, which led him to Orochimaru's laboratory.

As for Akihara Kagura...

Akihara Kagura has been diligently training.

In addition to practicing the rudimentary shuriken throwing technique and learning basic ninja knowledge, they also had to continue refining chakra as Jiraiya requested, and learn to increase the amount of chakra in their bodies.

have to say.

Jiraiya was an excellent teacher.

Akihara Kagura is also learning quite well, and her progress in ninjutsu and taijutsu is rapid. She is even trying to reduce the number of hand seals in her techniques!

"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!"

Akihara Kagura raised his hand and formed the Tiger Seal. Tiny flames flew out of his mouth, soaring into the distance like a fire dragon, and then transformed into a raging inferno that covered the sky when it landed!

"Well done."

Jiraiya couldn't help but praise his disciple.

Even knowing that Akihara Kagura possessed astonishing talent, Jiraiya couldn't help but admire the speed at which Akihara Kagura learned ninjutsu.

This little guy…

His learning speed is even more astonishing than Nagato's!

All I need to do is teach him how to form hand seals for a technique and how chakra circulates within his body when using it, and this little guy will be able to use it perfectly!

Over the past few months, Jiraiya has fully experienced the joy of teaching a genius disciple, as well as the frustration of doing so.

There's so little I can teach.

This disciple learns too quickly.

Jiraiya remembered a technique developed by one of his former disciples and suddenly had an idea: "Kagura, you seem to like techniques with fewer hand seals. I have a technique here with infinite possibilities, developed by the Fourth Hokage..."

"Rasengan!"

As he said this, Jiraiya raised his palm, and a spiral of chakra appeared in his hand!

"This is a ninjutsu without a hand seal."

As Jiraiya manipulated the Rasengan, he explained the technique: "Similarly, this ninjutsu doesn't require any specific chakra nature, which means it can actually be infused with other chakra natures to create a nature transformation. This is an extremely difficult thing; even the Fourth Hokage couldn't develop it before his death..."

"Rasengan, huh?"

Akihara Kagura raised her palm.

A Rasengan instantly appeared in Akihara Kagura's palm.

[System Notification]: The [Ninja Professor] trait has been activated. The host possesses chakra, with a chakra level of A or higher. The [Rasengan] currently being learned conforms to ninjutsu theory. The [Rasengan] learning has been successful!

[Rasengan (Inspired by the Tailed Beast Ball, it gathers chakra in the hand, causing it to flow and compress in irregular directions, forming a chakra ball the size of a palm. When used to attack an opponent, it can cause chakra disorder. The host can control the size of the Rasengan by the amount of chakra injected, and can also inject chakra of other attributes to change the nature of the Rasengan.)]

"Alright, you can continue your cultivation."

Jiraiya waved to his disciple and went down the mountain on his own: "Work hard! I'm going to check the town to see if there's any news about Orochimaru."

Orochimaru seemed to have vanished into thin air all along.

Jiraiya destroyed many laboratories, but still couldn't find Orochimaru's whereabouts, and Orochimaru seemed indifferent to such matters.

Of course.

Jiraiya always felt he was a step too late.

In fact, Jiraiya was often one step ahead of Orochimaru.

Because most of the time, before Orochimaru even had a chance to go to that laboratory, Jiraiya would have already gotten the news through other channels.

The land of rain.

Inside a dark mountain cave.

This cave is the base of the Akatsuki organization.

The base was secluded and spacious, and even contained a laboratory. Two people were busy in the laboratory. One of them was Orochimaru, who had recently joined the Akatsuki organization, and the other was a teammate assigned to him by the Akatsuki.

scorpion.

Sasori of the Red Sand.

Sasori's appearance is that of an ugly Hiruko, wearing a black robe with auspicious clouds from the Akatsuki organization. When he moves around in the laboratory, it's as if he's crawling on the ground.

Orochimaru and Sasori were busy in their respective laboratories, seemingly undisturbed by each other, with a corpse on each of their lab tables.

However, on Sasori's lab table was a corpse that had been turned into a human puppet, which did not emit any odor; on Orochimaru's lab table was a fresh corpse, which filled the entire laboratory with a bloody smell.

Bang!

The laboratory door was opened.

A woman with light blue hair walked in and said with a cold expression, "Scorpion, Orochimaru, there is a request from the Land of Rivers that you need to carry out."

The woman with light blue hair seemed to know they were engrossed in their experiments and proactively reminded them, "The money the other members of Akatsuki have pooled together isn't meant for the two of you to keep doing experiments. If you want more funding for experiments, hurry up and go do some missions..."

"I understand, Xiao Nan."

Sasori of the Red Sand is more obedient.

As a veteran member of Akatsuki, Sasori had witnessed Konan's power and was familiar with Akatsuki's procedures. He silently packed up his tools.

"I'll be there soon."

Orochimaru glanced at Konan, his eyes narrowing slightly.

This child was one of the people Jiraiya had taken in as a disciple and cared for, whom he had met before. Later, during the Fourth Shinobi World War, news spread that she and two others had died…

As Orochimaru left, Konan suddenly spoke up, asking, "Orochimaru, I heard that several of your labs have been destroyed recently?"

"Is this something we need to worry about?"

Orochimaru's lips curled into a sinister smile as he looked at Sasori beside him. There was no need for further guessing; it was undoubtedly Sasori's doing.

Since joining Akatsuki, Sasori of the Red Sand has been the one monitoring him. Every time Orochimaru goes out on a mission, he goes to some abandoned experimental bases to collect experimental materials in advance.

result…

I made two empty trips.

Both experimental bases were destroyed by fire-style attacks.

Judging from the chakra left at the scene, it must be his old friend Jiraiya, who has never given up on finding him.

"Don't let anyone track you down."

Konan looked at Orochimaru with a hint of displeasure in her eyes: "To avoid causing trouble for the Akatsuki, I will kill you if it is discovered that you are a potential member of the Akatsuki."

"Hehehehe..."

Orochimaru's lips curled into a slight smile as he continued, "Doesn't the leader of Akatsuki intend to get rid of this trouble for me? Can't you help me eliminate that person who keeps destroying my labs and tracking my whereabouts?"

As Orochimaru finished speaking, he added, "If he finds out about the Akatsuki, I bet that guy will cause them a lot of trouble..."

"Who is it?"

Xiao Nan frowned.

"Jiraiya".

Orochimaru uttered a familiar name.

"..."

Xiao Nan fell silent immediately.

The woman with light blue hair gave Orochimaru a deep look and said, "I'll bring this up with Pain, if he's willing to help you resolve this problem..."

"That would be perfect."

Orochimaru smiled and nodded.

However, when Orochimaru turned around, his face turned grim.

Are these guys really the children Jiraiya adopted back then? They seem to have no feelings for Jiraiya at all. Could I have guessed wrong? How could Jiraiya's disciples be so cold-hearted?

Orochimaru remembered that he had finally received a message.

Jiraiya took on a new disciple, whose name was Akihara Kagura.

Jiraiya is currently training and gaining experience in the ninja world with that disciple.

"I have to find a way to see Kagura..."

Orochimaru felt a pang of sadness; Jiraiya had been destroying his laboratory all along.

The little guy Akihara Kagura was right next to Jiraiya. He could have used that little guy to influence Jiraiya, but it wasn't convenient because of the Akatsuki members' rule of monitoring each other.

In the forest of a small town.

Akihara Kagura is still diligently practicing the Rasengan.

A wisp of wind-style chakra was injected into the Rasengan, causing it to instantly twist and form an outer ring resembling a wind blade!

Bang!

The Wind Release: Rasengan exploded instantly!

The wind-style chakra immediately cut Akihara Kagura's palm!

Akihara Kagura lowered her head, feeling the cells in her body rapidly dissolving and dividing, quickly healing the injury to her palm.

"Developing techniques isn't easy..."

White Zetsu Awei's body slowly emerged from the ground.

This is the White Zetsu's unique ability, the Mayfly Technique, which allows it to dive into the earth or water like a mayfly and move quickly using underground water networks.

"It really wasn't easy."

Akihara Kagura nodded, fully agreeing with White Zetsu Awei's statement.

"Let's continue development tomorrow; let's get down to business today!"

White Zetsu Awei opened his palm and said with a grin, "I stole a corpse from the Kaguya clan. We have a sample for our bloodline experiment..."

"it is good."

Akihara Kagura reached for her clothes and draped them over herself, asking, "Have you found out which of Orochimaru-sama's experimental bases is closest to here?"

"We found one."

Bai Jue Awei nodded.

"Can."

Akihara Kagura glanced at the intelligent White Zetsu: "Let's modify your body first, so that you can do more things in the future."

Orochimaru has many experimental bases in the ninja world.

This small town, located in the Land of Rivers, is undoubtedly the most suitable place for Orochimaru to hide his experimental base. No ninja from major countries would come to investigate, so Orochimaru would definitely set up a nest here.

When Akihara Kagura arrived here, she found that the facilities of this experimental base were very complete, and there were even several ninjas in charge of management.

"Let's go."

Akihara Kagura gave an order.

White Zetsu emerged from the ground, its body slowly transforming into Orochimaru's appearance. Even its chakra became indistinguishable, a unique transformation technique unique to them.

White Zetsu's transformation technique is the best in the entire ninja world; it can even imitate chakra. Unless it's Sage Mode, it's impossible for anyone to tell the difference between the real and the fake.

When White Zetsu Awei transformed into Orochimaru, carrying a corpse of a Kaguya clan member, he walked into the base's laboratory on his own. Akihara Kagura instantly appeared beside him, sneaking in using the Flying Thunder God Technique.

"The facilities look pretty good..."

Akihara Kagura surveyed the laboratory with satisfaction.

"Can it really make me stronger?"

White Zetsu Awei was somewhat uneasy, as it had always trusted Akihara Kagura.

However, experiments are not something that can be done with willpower alone; they require real science and technology, and Akihara Kagura seems a bit unreliable.

"Trust me, the experiment will definitely succeed."

Akihara Kagura had great faith in White Zetsu Awei's physique.

White Zetsu are creatures that are practically born with a natural affinity for chakra. They can accommodate any bloodline limit in the ninja world, as if they were born with the ability to store chakra.

Kagura Akihara possesses [genetic modification technology], which allows her to transplant the genes of bloodline limits into White Zetsu, enabling White Zetsu to also obtain bloodline limits.

as predicted.

The experiment was quite successful.

After Akihara Kagura implanted strange things into White Zetsu Awei, White Zetsu Awei felt an itch inside his body, as if bones were growing out!

Click!

A sharp bone spur pierced through its body in an instant!

This means that the Corpse Bone Pulse Bloodline Limit has successfully appeared in its body!

Bai Jue Awei lay on the experimental table, looking at the bone spurs growing inside his body with some surprise: "Kid, you actually know about these things..."

"certainly."

Akihara Kagura, wearing a mask and completely covered from head to toe, said, "While your body has already been dissected, let's transplant some Hashirama cells..."

This seemingly hasty experiment turned out to be quite successful. White Zetsu Awei gained the Corpse Bone Pulse Bloodline Limit within his body, and even awakened an even more powerful Wood Release within him.

Although this Wood Release technique is not yet comparable to Akihara Kagura's, it has at least surpassed Tenzo's Wood Release, and is more than enough to build a house.

Bai Jue Awei looked contentedly at the bone spurs growing from his left hand and the wooden splinters from his right, then reminded him, "There are quite a few marks left here. Should we destroy them?"

"certainly."

"It's fine to let Jiraiya-sensei do this."

Akihara Kagura already had her own plan and continued, "Lord Orochimaru is extremely meticulous. Once he discovers this, there will be a flaw. If Jiraiya-sensei realizes that there is a laboratory belonging to Lord Orochimaru here, he will definitely come and clean it up."

This kind of thing...

They were already very skilled at it.

After all, the information that Jiraiya was able to find out all came from the arrangements made by Akihara Kagura and White Zetsu Awei, and even the timing was controlled.

White Zetsu Awei transformed into Orochimaru's appearance and, in the eyes of a group of guards, left the experimental base, reverting to the appearance of an ordinary town resident.

"I'm going to spread the word about the missing persons."

That's exactly right.

Every time Jiraiya destroyed Orochimaru's experimental base, he would receive a message from the base's guards that Orochimaru had only been gone a short while ago.

Akihara Kagura used the [Darkness of the Ninja World] to discover that Orochimaru and Sasori of the Red Sand were on their way to the Land of Rivers, and gave them a word of advice.

"This time, the message must be spread quickly."

"it is good."

Bai Jue Awei was already very experienced in this kind of thing.

As Akihara Kagura watched White Zetsu Awei leave, she sighed, "Finally, we have a chance to meet again, Lord Orochimaru..."

Orochimaru was Akihara Kagura's first superior.

As the strongest scientist known in the ninja world, Orochimaru possesses a wealth of knowledge that could be mined for a very long time. He is also constantly refining more forbidden techniques and scientific technologies.

In order to find an opportunity to meet Orochimaru and try to get the information from him about his mission to infiltrate Jiraiya's inner circle, Akihara Kagura actually had a pretty tough time.

First update!

I've been thinking about how they met...

Someone asked me about Akihara Kagura's purpose. I already wrote about it in Chapter 2. Her purpose for now is to be expelled by the will of the world of the Sage of Six Paths, rather than being killed by the Sage of Six Paths!

There's another method in the outline, but I won't spoil it for now!
