Orochimaru came back to his senses, nodded slightly, and planned to end this transplant surgery.
'First Hokage cells are not purely human cells, but have some kind of plant characteristic', he wanted to try to verify this guess.
And regardless of whether the guess was correct or wrong, many previous research results would be directly overturned, and of course, more valuable transplant plans would be found.
However, just as Orochimaru planned to inject an inhibitor and completely kill the First Hokage cells, the Senjutsu Chakra scattered in Yakushi Kabuto's body unexpectedly gathered spontaneously, without Orochimaru's control, and surged towards the area where the First Hokage cells were transplanted.
"What happened?"
Orochimaru frowned and looked over Yakushi Kabuto's body.
Except for the chest and abdomen, the remaining Senjutsu Chakra, outside the transplant area he had marked, was used to temporarily increase Yakushi Kabuto's overall Chakra strength and had very low control.
But even so, it shouldn't have escaped his control.
"Is it the influence of the First Hokage cells, or is it you, Kabuto?"
Orochimaru's eyes fell on Yakushi Kabuto's twisted and struggling face, and his heart moved. He abandoned his previous decision and instead poured a large amount of Senjutsu Chakra into Yakushi Kabuto's body.
As expected, once he gave up control of the Senjutsu Chakra, it would be mobilized to fight against the First Hokage cells' invasion.
"I still underestimated Kabuto's Senjutsu talent."
Although Orochimaru was reflecting, he had a relaxed smile on his face.
The transplant surgery was now on the right track, just like when Uchiha Jinsuke used his eye power to fight against the First Hokage cells' invasion, except that Kabuto was using Senjutsu Chakra.
And it was even better than before. The power of the Sharingan's eyes was limited, but he could provide endless Senjutsu Chakra.
Bang bang bang!
A series of smoke rose in the laboratory, and several Shadow Clones walked out of it. They sat around the white snake scales and began to condense Senjutsu Chakra.
The magic lamp spirit marveled, "I can't even tell whether Yakushi Kabuto is compatible with the white snake-type natural energy or with your Senjutsu Chakra."
This was indeed a problem.
Orochimaru raised an eyebrow. The white snake-type natural energy was a product that had been digested by the White Snake Sage, while Senjutsu Chakra was a secondary processing on top of that. There were still some differences.
…
Time passed by, and the desire to survive that erupted in desperation allowed Yakushi Kabuto to successfully pass the invasion period of the First Hokage cells and successfully achieve the fusion of the First Hokage cells.
"It's just the fusion of some cells, but the amount of Senjutsu Chakra consumed is so much."
Orochimaru picked up the white snake scales on the ground and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
He could help Yakushi Kabuto achieve the fusion of the First Hokage cells, but if he was the one doing the surgery, the difficulty would be different.
In the nutrient tank, Yakushi Kabuto stayed for a while to relieve his fatigue, and then got up and left, entering the bathroom to clean his body.
After getting ready and putting on his clothes, he began testing the changes in his body.
Orochimaru glanced at him, then retracted his gaze, losing interest and falling into deep thought.
After having new guesses about the First Hokage cells, the reference value of the previous transplant surgery was greatly reduced, including Yakushi Kabuto's this time. …
It only proved that 'Senjutsu Chakra does suppress the First Hokage cells', and even the amount of Senjutsu Chakra consumed couldn't give much reference value.
That being said, when Yakushi Kabuto brought over his test report, Orochimaru still carefully reviewed it.
Breathing, heart rate, cell activity... all had some changes, and the Chakra even exceeded the level of elite Jonin. After continuing to train, reaching the Kage level was just around the corner.
Although Orochimaru had never regarded Yakushi Kabuto as a combat force, it seemed that after a good training, he would have a Kage-level powerhouse in his hands in a few years.
Thinking of this, Orochimaru threw the white snake scales in his hand to Yakushi Kabuto, "Take it. Now I will start teaching you Senjutsu."
"Senjutsu?"
Yakushi Kabuto's eyes moved slightly, and he couldn't help but press his hand on his chest. He knew very well what had helped him get through the difficulties just now, and he couldn't help but feel a bit of desire for this power.
But suddenly remembering something, he suppressed it again, "Orochimaru-sama, during the time you were asleep, some small episodes also occurred..."
Hearing that Danzo had sent ninjas to invade the laboratory and tried to interrupt his recuperation at the end, a cold light flashed in Orochimaru's eyes,
"Danzo, that guy, really thinks I can't do anything to him?"
He valued the Konoha leek field very much, but whatever poisonous flowers and weeds grew in the root was a pure accident. In his eyes, it was a rotten part.
Like a tumor, cutting it off would not be a pity.
Thinking of this, Orochimaru squinted at Yakushi Kabuto, "I remember, you also have a grudge against Danzo."
"Yes." Yakushi Kabuto pushed up his glasses, and a light reflected from the lenses.
Danzo played with his fate and ruined everything he once cherished the most. A grudge? This word was too short.
Orochimaru continued to ask, "So, do you want revenge?"
Yakushi Kabuto was silent for a moment, then lowered his head and said, "Your subordinate hasn't thought about it yet."
He was a very serious person. If he wanted revenge, he had to make Danzo feel the same level of pain. He hadn't figured out how to do it.
And most importantly, no matter how perfectly he took revenge, besides venting his anger, nothing would change.
Yakushi Kabuto wasn't Obito. He had also been deprived of everything. Compared to venting his pain, he felt more regret.
"Haven't thought about it?"
Orochimaru repeated it and suddenly smiled, "Since you don't have that intention, then obey my orders. I need you to go to the root to take revenge."
Yakushi Kabuto raised his head, his eyes flickering, and also smiled, "I am willing to serve Orochimaru-sama."
"Adjust yourself, and I will teach you Senjutsu now."
Orochimaru took out a booklet from a scroll and handed it to Yakushi Kabuto, "With your current strength, you are still not qualified to go to the root to take revenge."
Transplanting First Hokage cells and teaching Yakushi Kabuto Senjutsu was actually a bit like forcing growth.
But Chakra control, his own combat capabilities... Yakushi Kabuto would have a long time to get familiar with them in the future, but the opportunity to receive guidance from him was not much anymore.
Moreover, compared to Ninjutsu and Taijutsu, Yakushi Kabuto's Senjutsu talent was obviously higher, and it might achieve twice the result with half the effort.
…
In the blink of an eye, another month had passed.
While Orochimaru was focused on training Yakushi Kabuto and researching the newly acquired White Zetsu clones, the Konoha and Kumogakure peace talks team conducted nearly ten large-scale negotiations, but they still fell into a stalemate.
The Konoha side didn't want to give up the benefits they had obtained, and the Kumogakure Ninja, after communicating with the village, had also become extremely strong, arrogantly demanding a life for a life.
