Drip...
Drip...
Drip...
The sound of water dripping echoed in the dark passage, causing Suijin to unconsciously tighten the robe on his body.
He hated it here. The dark passage in front of him seemed to lead straight to hell, which always made him think of all kinds of bad things, but the one-eyed viper on his shoulder made him dispel the idea of turning around and leaving.
He had no choice!
At the end of the passage, Hyōjin pushed open the door. Behind the door was a well-equipped laboratory, and there was a figure standing inside.
The figure turned around and said, "It's Jin-kun."
Hearing this hoarse voice, Hyōjin's heart trembled, and he quickly bowed his head. "Orochi Maru -sama!"
Orochi Maru looked at Hyōjin thoughtfully, and after a long time, he said, "This laboratory will belong to you from now on."
Feeling Orochi Maru's gaze, Hyōjin did not dare to let his imagination run wild, and quickly bowed and replied, "Please rest assured, I will work harder!"
Orochi Maru moved his eyes away and looked around the laboratory, and there was a hint of melancholy in his eyes.
"I may have to leave the village, and you will have to find your own materials in the future!"
"Yes!"
Hyōjin still nodded obediently, without the slightest hesitation, and the one-eyed viper standing on his shoulder lazily spat out its scarlet tongue.
Glancing at Hyōjin one last time, Orochi Maru did not say anything more, and directly left with a teleportation technique.
With the departure of Orochi Maru, the huge and gloomy Chakra that filled the laboratory slowly subsided.
"Phew …"
Hyōjin breathed a sigh of relief.
Recently, Orochi Maru's aura had become colder and colder, as if there was a smell of blood. Even if Hyōjin was only reporting the progress of the experiment from a distance, he would feel extremely uncomfortable.
Fortunately, these difficult days seemed to be over.
However, on second thought, Hyōjin had some doubts.
According to the vague memories from his previous life, Orochi Maru seemed to have been raided by Three Generations Naruto's secret laboratory and was caught red-handed. That was why he was forced to defect.
However, judging from Orochi Maru's behavior just now, it seemed that he had already planned to defect and was ready to take action at any time.
'What exactly went wrong that caused Orochimaru to take the initiative to defect? Is it because of me? "
After combing through everything that happened in the past, Kuroto still couldn't figure out the reason, but Orochimaru's defection is ultimately a good thing for him. As for whether Orochimaru defected voluntarily or passively, it doesn't make any sense for him to delve into it.
Hyōjin's feelings towards Orochi Maru were complicated.
If it weren't for Orochi Maru's protection, Hyōjin knew that he would not have survived the war so easily. After all, seven out of ten of his classmates had died on the battlefield.
Even a genius like Kakashi had almost lost his life on the battlefield, and in the school's team battles, he couldn't even take one of Kakashi's attacks.
Living in this world, being weak was the original sin!
It had been more than ten years since Hyōjin traveled to this world, but until today, it was still difficult for him to adapt to this ninja world full of killing. This was also one of the reasons why he took the initiative to seek refuge with Orochi Maru. When it came to combat talent, he was far behind his peers, especially when it came to life and death, his reaction was always slower than others.
Sometimes, he really admired the ninjas of this world. They often had the ability to kill at the age of six or seven. It was common for them to go to the battlefield at the age of ten. Even Kakashi, at the age of twelve, was already a Jonin who had killed countless enemies.
Hyōjin didn't have this talent. Fortunately, he was born in the Hyuga clan and was born with the Byakugan. With the help of the Byakugan, he was able to survive several dangerous situations on the battlefield.
But luck wouldn't always favor him. Watching his classmates die one by one, Hyōjin resolutely sought refuge with Orochi Maru.
He had to survive first. Surviving was the most important thing!
Hyōjin was not without his own advantages. With the good education in his previous life, his ability to understand was far better than the ninjas of the same age. Coupled with the natural advantage of the Byakugan, he quickly stood out in Orochi Maru's laboratory and became a more important experimental assistant of Orochi Maru and learned a lot of genetic technology from Orochi Maru.
Perhaps it was because he had experienced too many deaths, Orochi Maru had become very obsessed with the mystery of life in the later stages of the war.
The most intuitive reaction was that Orochi Maru no longer cared about the Three Generations, no longer adhered to the low moral bottom line, and began a large number of cruel and bloody human experiments.
Along with this, Orochi Maru also developed a strong interest in Wood Release, Byakugan, and Sharingan.
Hyōjin's initiative to seek refuge made it easier for Orochi Maru to study the secrets of the Byakugan, so in terms of guidance to Hyōjin, Orochi Maru did his best.
The two sides hit it off, so there was the scene just now.
Of course, the reason why Hyōjin dared to seek refuge with Orochi Maru was that he knew that it wouldn't take long for Orochi Maru's attention to the forbidden techniques of the village such as' Edo Tensei 'and' Yamata no Jutsu '. In addition, he had the protection of the 'Caged Bird', so he didn't have to worry about Orochi Maru directly carrying out human experiments on him.
Yes, the 'Caged Bird' is indeed a kind of protection for the current Hyōjin.
Or to be more precise, for all the weak and struggling Hyuga clansmen, the 'Caged Bird' is not a prison but a kind of protection. Because of its existence, the Hyuga clansmen avoid many covetous eyes inside and outside the village.
As for the other reason for seeking refuge with Orochi Maru, that is the Tenseigan!
With Hyōjin's mediocre talent, apart from the Tenseigan, he really can't think of any other way for him to turn over and control his fate in his own hands.
As for the Immortal Technique, even Orochi Maru found it difficult to master it, let alone him.
In fact, not to mention Hyōjin's mediocre talent, even the genius of the Hyuga Clan, Hyuga Ningci, in his previous life's memory, was also a sad character who died inexplicably.
The Byakugan is indeed in the Genin, Chunin, and even Jonin stage, which gives the Hyuga Clan an unparalleled advantage.
But once it rises to the Kage level or even the Super Kage level, the advantage of the Byakugan is not so obvious. And for the Hyuga Clan who specializes in Soft Fist, it is really powerless to use Soft Fist to fight against enemies at the level of Susanoo, Jinchuriki, Senjutsu, etc. Therefore, the Tenseigan is almost the only hope for the Hyuga Clan to intervene in the battle of the Super Kage level.
This is also something that Hyōjin has been thinking about since the beginning of his journey.
