Unscientific Scientist From Sunagakure - Chapter 169
Kakashi glanced at the bill handed over by Muzake using his left eye.
The amount was 283,645 yuan.
Kakashi assumed a serious thinking pose.
o_o….
Yamato asked blankly from the side, “Senior, what should we do?”
Kakashi looked at Yamato.
He stopped thinking.
Hmm.
When in doubt, turn to Yamato.
Kakashi handed the bill to Yamato.
He solemnly said, “Yamato, the friendship and peace between our Leaf Village and the Sand Village hang on this piece of paper. If we don’t pay, I fear a war between the two villages might break out!”
Yamato was stunned.
?(o_o?)
Really?
Senior.
It’s that serious!
Kakashi nodded.
“Yes, Yamato.”
“You need to take this seriously.”
Yamato held the paper, dazed.
Why is it me who has to take this seriously?
Yamato looked at Kakashi, who had stopped speaking.
Standing still, striking a pose.
He urgently called out, “Senior, senior.”
Kakashi remained motionless, ignoring Yamato.
Yamato nudged him.
Bang.
Kakashi disappeared.
A log fell to the ground.
Yamato =????=????(?????|||)?Xxs??
Kakashi had already used the Substitution Jutsu to escape.
Muzake looked at the pitiful Yamato.
He grinned.
Showing off his stark white teeth.
“Yamato, as the team leader, you’re not planning to default on the debt, are you?”
Yamato (´•?•`).
He reluctantly took out his wallet.
This was supposed to be savings for getting a wife.
All gone now.
Muzake expressed slight pleasure at the situation.
“Yamato, don’t be sad.”
“Wealth scattered returns.”
“As long as you continue to build vegetation in the Sand Village, you can earn it all back.”
Yamato opts for overtime.
“Is there overtime pay?”
Muzake shook his head.
“We don’t do overtime in the Sand Village.”
Yamato sighed.
He should consider taking on other jobs.
Life is too hard.
Inside the Chakra Research Lab.
The container with Nine-Tails chakra was filled with orange Nine-Tails chakra.
Muzake looked on, very pleased.
This teaching session wasn’t in vain.
Orochimaru was nearby.
His golden snake pupils glimmered with an unusual light.
“Lord, why not keep the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?”
Muzake: “Do you know who Naruto is?”
Orochimaru nodded.
“The son of the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze.”
Muzake: “Exactly, he is, after all, the Hokage’s son and the Leaf Village’s Jinchuriki. If I were to detain him, Tsunade might just storm in here.”
“She’s not like Hiruzen Sarutobi, a politician full of concerns. No one can predict what she might do when she gets hot-headed.”
Muzake looked at Orochimaru.
“I presume you also don’t want her coming over and smashing your lab.”
Orochimaru nodded.
Muzake: “We can’t easily disrupt the good relations we’ve established with the Leaf Village now.”
The goods of the Sand Village need a market.
I need to strengthen my powers.
The Leaf Village is a significant power in the ninja world.
This place must not be abandoned or descend into turmoil.
Just the Nine-Tails, after all.
With so many ninja tools at my disposal.
It’s not impossible for a ninja equipped with my tools to surpass the Nine-Tails.
“Orochimaru, any progress with your Sharingan research?”
Orochimaru: “Lord, there has been some progress,”
With a master like Shigure Tanuki joining, Orochimaru could finally delegate some projects.
The Sharingan was one of his favorite projects.
Muzake: “Oh, that’s great. I thought you would have immediately implanted some Sharingans in yourself.”
Orochimaru disdained.
“Those single and double tomoe Sharingans, what’s so good about them.”
Orochimaru is a man of ambition.
He felt if he were to implant any, it would be of the caliber of Itachi Uchiha’s.
The Mangekyo Sharingan.
Only that would be worthy of him.
Speaking of the Sharingan, it is the ninja world’s most peculiar organ.
Anyone, as long as you think you have enough chakra, can just plug and play.
Removed from a dead person, it doesn’t decay or degrade.
Just wipe it off and pop it into your eye socket.
Other than chakra consumption, there’s no such thing as rejection or other adverse reactions.
This is a miracle of biology.
This bizarre activation mode.
It truly leaves one speechless.
Like the training that demands self-castration.
“What are the results?”
Orochimaru pulled out two Sharingan eyes.
“Lord, look, these two eyes are still lifelike after so many years.”
“It’s because they stored the Uchiha family’s visual powers.”
Muzake nodded.
That’s common knowledge.
Orochimaru held the two Sharingan eyes under the light.
“Lord, look how beautiful the patterns are.”
“This tomoe shape, doesn’t it resemble a kind of seal?”
Muzake took a closer look.
Indeed, it did.
“What does this imply?”
Orochimaru licked his lips.
“I’ve carefully studied over fifty Sharingan eyes.”
“Although they look similar at a glance under a microscope, each is different.”
“Each eye’s pattern is slightly different.”
Muzake: “What does that signify?”
Orochimaru’s eyes gleamed.
“The differences aren’t important; the commonality is.”
“The flow isn’t important; the channel is.”
