Chapter 192 - Chapter 172: Orochimaru: Haven't You Always Been the One Causing Me Trouble?

At least in Uehara Naraku's view, Orochimaru and he were on the same side, so Uehara didn't hold back and directly asked, "Mr. Orochimaru, obediently tell me the White Snake Sage's information, maybe you still have a chance to escape..."

"Kid!"

Orochimaru's fierce gaze was fixed on Uehara Naraku, gritting his teeth, "Uehara Naraku, is this how you ask for someone's help?"

"I'm giving you face, you know!"

Uehara Naraku's expression instantly turned cold, "I can leave here anytime, but Mr. Orochimaru, can you? Once I leave, I'll go to Konoha and tell Tsunade that you left something on Mitarashi Anko's neck!"

"..."

Orochimaru suppressed his urge to curse, glanced at the golden light shield on Uehara Naraku, and couldn't help but show a trace of envy in his eyes.

After thinking for a while, Orochimaru gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, I can tell you, but you must agree to one condition!"

Damn it, what kind of divine development is this!

Clearly, he should hold the initiative, yet he became the one bullied by Uehara Naraku and the White Snake Sage; both of these guys were picking on him!

Now, being threatened by Uehara Naraku, Orochimaru was a bit reluctant, wanting to see if he could exchange for Uehara Naraku's bribes...

"Tell me your condition first."

Uehara Naraku waved his hand and broke a sharp spike with a punch, rescuing Orochimaru from a perilous situation, even kindly patting the dust off his body, "We're old friends, and the most important thing is a fair trade."

"..."

Orochimaru gave him a doubtful look.

Even Uehara Naraku probably doesn't believe what he's saying, right?

This guy always uses my life to make deals with me, with an air of 'I spared your life, so you owe me a huge favor.'

Isn't this just blackmail?

However, seeing that Uehara Naraku didn't explicitly object, Orochimaru planned to temporarily forget the past and softly said, "My condition is..."

"Sage Art: White Rage Jutsu!"

The White Snake Sage suddenly opened its mouth and spat out a huge Hollowfied snake with a pearl, which rotated wildly in the air, releasing a dazzling strong light!

In an instant, Uehara Naraku and Orochimaru couldn't see anything, nor could they hear each other speak!

Uehara Naraku thought of all the effects of the White Rage Jutsu and saw the suffering Orochimaru beside him, helplessly reaching out his hand, "Reincarnation Desperate Realm!"

Only the Reincarnation Desperate Realm could temporarily escape the current predicament!

By creating an absolute spatial domain, Uehara Naraku and Orochimaru were given a space to talk, allowing them to avoid the White Rage Jutsu's attack.

It also allowed Uehara Naraku to conserve a bit of chakra.

The next moment, an absolute spatial domain pulled Uehara Naraku and Orochimaru into it, which couldn't help but slightly shock Orochimaru.

In this spatial domain, it was completely barren!

The visible area was almost devoid of hope, with a lifeless color everywhere!

"Is this Netherworld Pure Land?"

"Yes, we're both in the Netherworld."

Uehara Naraku crossed his arms, looked at Orochimaru, and said, "Orochimaru, we've both been killed. Can you tell me the White Snake Sage's secret now?"

"..."

Orochimaru suddenly turned to look at Uehara Naraku, letting out a chuckle, "Naraku-kun, are you trying to extract information from me this way? This doesn't really align with the fair trade you advocate!"

Uehara Naraku's face turned black, and he said coldly, "Hey, Orochimaru, I saved your life from the White Rage Jutsu attack, at the very least you should be grateful, right?"

"Alright."

Orochimaru slowly looked at Uehara Naraku and softly said, "My condition is that if one day Naraku-kun masters the Immortal Reanimation, please allow us to exchange bodies every three years. Perhaps that way, we can achieve cyclical immortality!"

This condition couldn't be more lenient.

But when Orochimaru said it, it was somewhat affectionate.

This was only normal since Orochimaru really coveted Uehara Naraku's body, even though it had no bloodline limits, it could actually master Sage Mode!

However, Orochimaru had a bit of clarity in his mind.

No matter what means he used, it was impossible to obtain Uehara Naraku's body, better to lure Uehara Naraku into mastering Immortal Reanimation.

When the three-year period is over, they could try using their molting shells on each other, which would allow them to achieve immortality effortlessly.

Uehara Naraku shuddered slightly, a bit disgusted, and unconsciously rubbed his arms, quickly shaking his head.

"Change the condition! I won't practice Immortal Reanimation, and I won't tell unrelated people that overloading Immortal Reanimation makes the soul weak and susceptible to Genjutsu's weakness, can you tell me the White Snake Sage's secret now?"

"Hmm?"

Orochimaru's eye twitched, this little bastard really was a ninjutsu genius, even without any experiments, he could judge his bodily condition.

Orochimaru covered his mouth, coughed lightly, and softly said, "Forget it, at least we're on the same side. The White Snake Sage's biggest secret is that its body is also composed of inorganic materials. What we see is not the true face of the White Snake Sage."

"What do you mean?"

Uehara Naraku couldn't help but scratch his ear, "Sorry, I'm not very good academically, can you explain it in a way I understand..."

"Do you know what inorganic is?"

Orochimaru's brow twitched as he suppressed his anger.

Uehara Naraku obediently shook his head, "I don't, I've only heard of organic things, like organic vegetables..."

"Let me put it another way."

Orochimaru rubbed his forehead and said in a deep voice, "The White Snake Sage's body is covered by a layer of material that can transform its form at any time with sage chakra. It can be scales, air, or earth, do you understand what I mean?"

Uehara Naraku barely understood Orochimaru's meaning, "Isn't it just armor on the outside? The real White Snake Sage is wrapped inside? So the White Snake Sage is always using Immortal Inorganic Reincarnation to maintain its outer body?"

"Maybe."

Orochimaru shook his head gloomily, "The White Snake Sage is the most mysterious Immortal of the Ninja World, who knows where it hides itself?"

Uehara Naraku nodded accordingly, "Yeah, snakes should be as afraid of death as Mr. Orochimaru, ready to escape danger anytime and even have a chance of resurrection."

"..."

Orochimaru's expression turned ugly again.

Although he indeed cherished his life, hearing it from Uehara Naraku made him feel a bit ashamed. Can't this little bastard just speak properly?

"Alright then."

Uehara Naraku extended a Void Blade from his hand and said solemnly, "Now that we know its information, it's not that hard to deal with it..."

After saying that, Uehara Naraku glanced at Orochimaru, this guy's wisdom was indeed remarkable.

Uehara Naraku turned his head and said seriously, "Mr. Orochimaru, I hope we can sincerely cooperate in the future. We work so well together, why do you always oppose me?"

"...Is it me opposing you!"

Orochimaru gritted his teeth and glared fiercely at Uehara Naraku, "Isn't it you, this brat, always causing me trouble!"

"Alright, alright, I forgive you!"

"But I will never forgive you!"

Orochimaru angrily turned his head away. Every time he communicated with Uehara Naraku, Orochimaru felt like he would be angered to death by him.

Uehara Naraku waved away the Reincarnation Desperate Realm and reappeared in the Ryuchi Cave with Orochimaru, slowly fixing his gaze on the White Snake Sage, curling up the corners of his mouth, "Great, next it's time to collect a Summoning Beast!"
