Chapter 242 Unknown Thoughts
In this stronghold made by Ye Zi with the power of wood escape, with wood as the main material, Orochimaru was slightly surprised. Only when he entered it did he know that there was plenty of space.
There were not many people in the huge stronghold, only about twenty. Except for Nanako and Yu, they were all children around eleven or twelve years old. These were orphans that Yu had picked up from various places during this period. .
After settling Yan Ye, Ye Zi took Orochimaru to Nanako's laboratory.
The arrival of Orochimaru surprised Nanako, and with Ye Zi's simple explanation, she accepted this fact.
Before coming to Nanako's laboratory, Orochimaru saw a lot of children. At this time, he suddenly said: "Are those children used as test subjects?"
"No." Nanako was not surprised by Orochimaru's remarks. Research involving the human body is always inseparable from human experiments. While sorting out the data, she said: "When I sort out the information, you can take a look. I understand, there are countless materials that can serve as experimental subjects, and there is no need for those children."
The material in her words was the clone created by Hashirama's cells.
Orochimaru's eyes flashed, and he immediately checked the instruments in the room. Basically, everything that was needed was present, and the facilities were very complete. He was very satisfied.
"Orochimaru, go and rest first."
What needs to be seen has been seen and what needs to be introduced has been introduced. Ye Zi wants Orochimaru to rest first.
Orochimaru nodded. His current condition was indeed very poor, and he was very exhausted mentally and physically. The rush of these days also prevented his injuries from getting good treatment.
"follow me."
Ye Zi walked in front, and Orochimaru followed him.
The two of them walked one behind the other in the passage made of wood.
"This is the wooden escape." Orochimaru stretched out his hand, lightly pressed his palm on the wooden wall, and traced the smooth wall as he walked.
Ye Zi did not hide anything and replied directly: "That's right."
His eyes fell on Ye Zi's dark hair, Orochimaru let out a unique hoarse laugh and said: "I have conducted experiments in this area, using more than sixty experimental subjects, none of them were successful. It seems that this is not the method. It’s a mistake, but I didn’t find the right method.”
Ye Zi did not respond and led the way silently.
"I'm very interested in the changes in you."
"Really...but I have no interest in becoming your experimental subject."
"That's such a pity." Orochimaru stuck out his long tongue and licked the corners of his lips. Ever since he began to come into contact with the mysteries of the human body, he had often thought of the uniqueness of Ye Zi's body, but... he had never reached out to Ye Zi.
After leading Orochimaru to his room, Ye Zi opened the door and walked in. The light in the room was like daylight. Orochimaru who followed him in narrowed his eyes slightly in discomfort.
The room is quite large and has all the necessary furniture.
Orochimaru just took a general look. He didn't have any big requirements for the room. His eyes swept across it quickly, and then stopped at the strangely shaped wall.
That wall was directly opposite where the bed was placed. On the wall were oval wooden spheres, half a finger's width apart from each other, all over the entire wall, up, down, left, and right.
"What is that?" Orochimaru pointed at the strange-shaped wall.
"Decoration." Ye Zi replied.
"Decoration? Did you do this?" Orochimaru looked at him, his eyes slowly getting weird.
Ye Zi nodded calmly and said, "I did it. I was in a hurry, so I just did it casually so as not to make the room monotonous. Don't you like eggs very much?"
“…”
Orochimaru was stunned and speechless, and then stared at the wall quietly, eggs? That being said, it does look a bit like it.
"Are there other rooms too?"
"have."
"What's in your room?" Orochimaru walked to the wall, stretched out his hand and pressed lightly on the "egg", feeling the urge to crush the "egg" in his heart.
"It's meat." Ye Zi's tone was calm.
Orochimaru raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He didn't want to wake up every day and see this strange-shaped wall when he opened his eyes. After a moment of silence, he said calmly: "I want to destroy this wall."
"As you like." Ye Zi said.
He didn't put much effort into this "egg" wall. Since Orochimaru didn't like it, just destroy it.
"Get some rest."
Ye Zi said something, turned around, opened the door and left.
Orochimaru looked back at the slowly closing door. After staying for a moment, he withdrew his gaze and stared at the "egg" wall in front of him.
After a long silence, he took back his hand on the "egg" and walked towards the bed.
This is a wooden bed, and the pillow is also an ordinary piece of wood.
Orochimaru didn't have much need for a bed to sleep on, so he lay down on it and slowly closed his eyes, but he did not destroy this strange "egg" wall.
-----------------------------------------------
Konoha Village.
The night was dark, and the sky was obscured by numerous accumulated clouds, making it difficult for the moonlight to penetrate, as if cast a shadow, just like the mood of Konoha Village at this time.
Orochimaru defected and was rescued by Ye Zi at a critical moment. The master and apprentice, who were once the mainstays in Konoha, both became rebel ninjas. Together, they became potential threats that must be paid attention to.
That night a few days ago.
The mission failed, and everyone who carried out the mission had their own thoughts.
Unable to save Orochimaru, Jiraiya has been in a very low mood these days. If he had been stronger, why would he be like this?
Not only Jiraiya was in a low mood, but many people were as well, including Kushina. After returning to the village that night and letting Tsunade finish treating her arm, she returned home in silence and hadn't left the house for several days.
Minato learned everything from the subsequent battle report. Because he was worried about Kushina, he came and went many times in the past few days, but he was always turned away. The established reality seems to make it difficult for her to let go.
Ye Zi has been in his eyes since a long time ago, and it was once an existence that he always wanted to surpass. Even now, this idea has not changed.
Because Kushina would occasionally be jealous of Ye Zi, and even more angry at what Ye Zi did, and angry that he didn't cherish her.
This mission made the anger directed at Ye Zi even deeper.
Failed mission, tragic loss.
Training a jounin is not an easy task. Although many jonins have been lost, they have a similar understanding of Ye Zi's abilities.
"Is it comparable to the speed of the Flying Thunder God Jutsu..." Minato held his chin, his eyes fell on the battle report on the table, and he pondered.
Judging from the battle report, Ye Zi's speed is very fast, beyond the reaction ability of his own Jonin, and his mastery of the nature and form changes of Thunder Release can be said to have reached the peak, just like... Yun Ninja Village was crowned The Raikage known as the monster.
The two people's thunder escape control is very terrifying. The difference is that Lei Ying has tyrannical power, while Ye Zi has terrifying control power.
Minato was very concerned about Ye Zi, and he knew very well that a battle with Ye Zi would be unavoidable in the future.
After becoming Hokage, although he was busy with work, he also started to develop new ninjutsu in his only free time.
If you want to protect what you want to protect, you must have strong power, and he knows this very well.
Whether it was the village or Kushina who was not cherished by Ye Zi, he would do his best to protect it.
