Orochimaru did not answer the question, but instead corrected him.
"I don't need to be restored; the me now is the original me, the real me!"
Uchiha Un-chidori heard these incredibly outlandish words and said nothing. From the information Orochimaru had just given him, Uchiha Un-chidori understood what Orochimaru had been doing recently.
Research, of course.
It primarily focused on the fundamental nature of Chakra, which Yuuki-kun considered most important.
There were also some secondary projects, such as high-yield rice.
Uchiha Un-chidori didn't think he would be interested in such things.
The esteemed Orochimaru was no longer conducting human experiments; he was either engaged in high-minded, theoretical projects like the fundamental nature of Chakra,
or extremely grounded projects like high-yield rice.
The key was that Orochimaru was enjoying the research immensely!
This was an unavoidable outcome. Orochimaru was obedient, but he had become a bleeding heart, just like Jiraiya.
Left with no choice, Yuuki-kun could only assign Orochimaru civilian projects to research, in addition to the Chakra project.
High-yield rice wasn't something Orochimaru started; Konoha had already been working on it for a long time.
It just hadn't been given much importance.
Actually, there was a simple method: hybridization. However, after several years, they hadn't made any significant progress.
Yuuki-kun sometimes felt he was embarrassing his fellow transmigrators.
Things like glass, refined salt, soap, hybrid rice, etc.—these were things Yuuki-kun had read in books that any transmigrator could produce in his previous life.
Yuuki-kun declared he couldn't do any of them!
Not to mention, Yuuki-kun had read that any transmigrator could master Lightning Release with flair, showcasing various electromagnetic ninjutsu.
After truly transmigrating, Yuuki-kun had fantasized about a Railgun, but reality showed Yuuki-kun had thought too much.
In a Ninja World that already had computers, it was impossible for the people of the Ninja World not to know about electromagnetism.
Under such circumstances, Magnet Release was still so rare, which could only mean one thing: Lightning Release was not Electric Release, even though it looked very similar to Electric Release.
Ultimately, adhering to the principle of not wasting Shisui's Kotoamatsukami, Orochimaru finally found his calling.
After answering Uchiha Un-chidori's question, Orochimaru continued.
"One thing I need to remind you: no matter what you plan to do with that important person, do not harbor any thoughts detrimental to Konoha!"
Orochimaru was warning another version of himself, which seemed somewhat ironic.
"Finally, I will not proactively reveal your existence, but you must not expose yourself. Otherwise, if Yuuki-kun discovers an anomaly and questions me, I will reveal everything without reservation."
The forest that once stood there was gone.
The people who were once in the forest now stood there, two of them, but neither was the Orochimaru of before.
Just as the meeting was about to conclude, Yuuki-kun and Shisui suddenly appeared.
"Senior Orochimaru, when we have guests, why don't you entertain them properly? Also, I'm very interested in the important person of our Uchiha Clan you mentioned!"
What neither Orochimaru nor Uchiha Un-chidori knew was this:
Above the Ninja World, in synchronous orbit, optimized satellites were constantly monitoring every movement in Konoha after the Ninja of various villages arrived there.
The location Uchiha Un-chidori chose was very secluded; normally, no one would come there. Unfortunately, the forest had been leveled!
Therefore, every action of the two after their meeting was precisely known to Konoha in real-time.
"Esteemed guest, would you be interested in having a chat at the Hokage Building?"
Three against one, Uchiha Un-chidori chose to surrender!
Inside the Hokage Building.
After understanding the whole situation, Yuuki-kun clicked his tongue in wonder.
As expected of Orochimaru, he certainly knows how to have fun!
Especially since Orochimaru, by sheer dumb luck, found Uchiha Madara's underground base in the Land of Grass.
Yuuki-kun didn't believe Obito and Black Zetsu would leave without a thorough cleanup.
Under such circumstances, for Orochimaru to still find Madara's genetic material, it truly was impossible not to be impressed.
Originally, Yuuki-kun had felt regret when Orochimaru was nerfed.
As a result, a fresh, new Orochimaru delivered himself right to their doorstep again.
What is a surprise?
This is a surprise!
Yuuki-kun, with a smile on his face, asked in a very gentle tone.
"Senior Orochimaru, have you come to Konoha this time to continue our cooperation?"
If one ignored the gradually illuminating seals around them, Yuuki-kun's expression and words at this moment were indeed quite friendly.
To judge whether a person carries goodwill, do not look at what he says, but at what he does.
Uchiha Un-chidori was specifically created to sever ties with Yuuki-kun, yet now he was once again under Yuuki-kun's control.
Orochimaru (Uchiha Un-chidori) felt that Yuuki-kun's existence seemed to be deliberately targeting him.
I just want to live freely and do interesting things. Why is it so difficult?
Uchiha Un-chidori cried out internally, but on the surface, he happily said,
"Of course, cooperating with Yuuki-kun has been very pleasant!"
When resistance is futile, what other option is there besides acceptance?
Yuuki-kun immediately said after hearing this,
"Since that's the case, our cooperation will continue as before. Haku and the others can also be returned to Otogakure. There's just a small request that I need you to agree to, Senior."
"Yuuki-kun, please speak."
Yuuki-kun pointed at Orochimaru and, facing Uchiha Un-chidori, said with a wide smile,
"Senior, could you teach the Summoning Jutsu of our Uchiha Clan's former clan head to your clone in Konoha?"
