I, Uchiha: Split Konoha

Chapter 67 Sealing Techniques: Five Elements Sealing

Upon entering the brightly lit room, a strong smell of alcohol disinfectant hit him, causing Kakashi to frown slightly. It was clear that this bright room was often used for some kind of experiment.

"Orochimaru-sensei."

Orochimaru was the only one in the room, staring at the test tube in front of him, as if observing and recording some kind of change. When Uchiha Yoru arrived, he nodded slightly without turning his head, "Yoru, let Kakashi lie down first."

On the bed that had been prepared beforehand, Kakashi bowed respectfully and said, "Yes, Lord Orochimaru."

The reputation of the Sannin is second only to the Hokage in the village. Even the heads of the Six Divisions have to treat the Sannin with respect, because the Sannin have proven with their strength that they all have strength comparable to the Kage.

Kakashi lay on the chair, his right eye seemingly vacant and indifferent as he stared at the white light emanating from the ceiling, yet he was secretly surveying his surroundings.

A full quarter of an hour later, Orochimaru finally put down the data he was recording, turned around and looked at Kakashi, who had been waiting for a long time, and couldn't help but show his unique hoarse smile.

"Hehe, the three-tomoe Sharingan is truly an object worth studying."

Orochimaru's wicked tone and smile could easily lead people to misunderstand, and Kakashi couldn't help but frown upon hearing it. He might be indifferent to his own life now, but for this eye, it was something more important than life itself.

"Orochimaru-sensei, your laughter can easily cause misunderstandings."

At this moment, Uchiha Yoru shrugged and smiled, and the two of them came to Kakashi's side. At Yoru's prompting, Kakashi slowly removed his headband, revealing the Sharingan with its three tomoe that could never be closed.

Orochimaru's evil and greedy eyes seemed to be admiring some rare treasure, but only those who knew him well knew that Orochimaru had simply seen a novel research object.

At this time, Orochimaru was proud. Although his bloodline limit was strong, it had not completely captivated him. After all, the three-tomoe Sharingan was an existence that could not be compared to the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Uchiha Yoru's hands glowed with green chakra, a kind of medical ninjutsu, and he placed them on Kakashi's eyeballs. He then said in a deep voice, "Although the transplant surgery was rough at the time, it was repaired after we returned and is now connected to all the nerves. This Sharingan is now one with Kakashi."

At this moment, Uchiha Yoru truthfully reported Kakashi's situation, and Orochimaru nodded slightly after listening, "He has no bloodline limit, but he has been given the Sharingan. This is a conflict between his physique and bloodline limit, so his body cannot control the opening and closing of the Sharingan like the Uchiha clan."

The experienced Orochimaru directly pointed out Kakashi's current situation, then shook his head and said, "This situation is not unprecedented; the village has already conducted experiments on bloodline transplantation."

After a brief examination of Kakashi's Sharingan, Orochimaru lost interest and casually waved his hand, saying, "Yoru, your suggestion is quite good. We can use a sealing technique to seal this Sharingan, and then simply unseal it when needed."

With a glance, Uchiha Yoru smiled and nodded, removing the headband from Kakashi's head. At that moment, Orochimaru formed a hand seal, and instantly, solid purple chakra flames appeared on his five fingers.

Sealing Technique: Five Elements Sealing!

Chakra concentrated on his five fingers and instantly imprinted around Kakashi's left eye! In an instant, eerie black sealing patterns appeared, and at the same time, Kakashi endured the discomfort in his body as his superhuman vision in his left eye gradually blurred and then lost its light.

The three tomoe seemed to have lost their vitality. Kakashi's left eye slowly closed wearily, and at the same time, a small black pattern of the Five Elements Seal appeared on his eyelid.

There are many people who know the Five Elements Sealing Technique, but those who can precisely control the sealing technique to a specific part of a person's body are extremely rare. This shows just how terrifying Orochimaru's control over chakra is.

"This is a sealing talisman, which can be considered the key to the Five Elements Seal. Normally, this seal will seal off most of the chakra flow in the left eye, only retaining the chakra needed for the eyeball to be active, similar to hibernation. When needed, it can be released by following the hand seals."

An ordinary yellow sealing talisman appeared in his hand, and Uchiha Yoru immediately smiled. It worked as expected. After all, in the original work, Ao of the Mist Ninja was able to suppress his Byakugan with the sealing talismans on his ears. Similarly, a three-tomoe Sharingan should not be a problem, since it was Orochimaru who made the move.

Kakashi was covering his left eye, as if he had an open but powerless, uncontrollable urge. As the burning sensation subsided, his left eye, which had been constantly consuming chakra, suddenly seemed to close as if a valve had been put on it! Or rather, only a sliver remained.

After sensing the changes within his body, Kakashi Hatake got out of bed and respectfully nodded to Orochimaru, saying, "Thank you, Lord Orochimaru."

Looking at Kakashi, Orochimaru licked his lips with interest and said with a wicked smile, "Kakashi, you're quite good. You're born with all five elemental attributes. If you'd like, you can come work for me."

Recruiting!

Orochimaru admired geniuses the most, especially geniuses like Kakashi who became a Jonin at the age of twelve. He was confident that under his tutelage, Kakashi would definitely become an outstanding Konoha ninja.

However, Kakashi remained silent and bowed his head in response to Orochimaru's offer of recruitment. After all, he was the Fourth Hokage's student, and joining Orochimaru now would have a different meaning.

"Hehe, Ye, although you can only follow the steps in your research, I must say that your thinking is the most outstanding I have ever seen."

Orochimaru wasn't angry with Kakashi. Instead, he turned to look at Uchiha Yoru with a satisfied smile. His research might need assistants, but sometimes, ingenious ideas were the most crucial element.

Without these ingenious ideas, how could we have opened up another unknown door for him?

"Hehe, using sealing techniques to suppress bloodline limit techniques is a feasible method, but it is extremely difficult. One is the preciousness of bloodline limit bodies, another is that the body itself does not exhibit rejection, and the last point is that the user must have sufficient and precise chakra control."

Beneath Orochimaru's satisfied smile, he was unaware that his disciple also knew these things through the power of prophecy. For example, Ao from Kirigakure was able to use the Byakugan using this method, and similarly, why couldn't Kakashi?

……

After his eyes were properly treated and would no longer be a burden to him, Kakashi looked at his classmate with a grateful expression. Perhaps he himself did not realize that the relationship between the two had become closer.

Inside the dense jungle, outside the snake-shaped cave entrance.

"Kakashi, this is the scroll of 'Sealing Technique: Five Elements Sealing.' After all, you can't keep bothering others with your eyes all the time; it's best to rely on yourself."

Kakashi hesitated when he saw the ninjutsu scroll handed to him by Uchiha Yoru. Although sealing techniques were a niche art with few users, they were treasures of every village.

Five Elements Seal, Rank A (Forbidden Technique - Super High-Level Ninjutsu). Kakashi was not unaware of the rarity and value of this ninjutsu.

Seeing Kakashi's hesitation, Uchiha Yoru shook his head and chuckled, "Kakashi, don't worry. This is a gift to you in my personal name. If you feel unworthy of it..."

At this moment, the way Uchiha Yoru rubbed his fingers suddenly made Kakashi's moved expression pause, and he showed a speechless look. It was still the familiar old classmate.

Although I was only at school for less than a year, Uchiha Yoru's name was already widely known, especially his gesture of asking for money, which was very familiar to me.

"Okay." Kakashi wasn't one to be sentimental. After receiving the ninjutsu scroll, he felt even more guilty. Some ninjutsu couldn't be bought with money.

He knew that all of this was because the other party didn't want him to feel indebted and to feel at ease taking the favor, but the more they did this, the more guilty he felt.

Watching Kakashi's departing figure, Uchiha Yoru also smiled, but the smile held a hint of deeper meaning.

Please support me.
