When White Zetsu Awei transformed into Orochimaru's form, carrying a corpse from the Kaguya Clan, he walked into the laboratory of the base, and the silhouette of Akihara Kagura instantly appeared beside him, sneaking in using the Flying Thunder God Jutsu.
"The facilities seem quite complete..."
Akihara Kagura contentedly surveyed the laboratory.
"Can it really make me stronger?"
White Zetsu Awei was somewhat uneasy, as he had always believed in Akihara Kagura.
However, experimenting didn't seem to be something that could be done with mere willpower; real scientific technology was required, and Akihara Kagura seemed a bit unreliable.
"Trust me, the experiment will definitely succeed."
Akihara Kagura was very confident in White Zetsu Awei's constitution.
The White Zetsu were naturally compatible with Chakra, able to integrate any Kekkeigenkai from the Ninja World, as if they were born to store Chakra.
Akihara Kagura mastered Genetic Modification Technology, capable of transplanting Kekkeigenkai genes into White Zetsu, allowing them to gain such abilities.
As expected.
The experiment was quite successful.
After Akihara Kagura implanted some strange things into White Zetsu Awei, he felt an itch within him, as if bones were about to grow out!
Crack!
A sharp bone spike suddenly pierced through his body!
This signified that the Dead Bone Pulse Kekkeigenkai had successfully manifested within him!
White Zetsu Awei lay on the experimental table, looking in surprise at the bone spike growing inside him: "Kid, you actually understand these things..."
"Of course."
Akihara Kagura, wearing a mask and completely wrapped up, said: "While your body is already dissected, let's transplant some Hashirama Cells..."
This seemingly very sloppy experiment turned out to be quite successful; White Zetsu Awei now had the Dead Bone Pulse Kekkeigenkai, and even awakened the more powerful Wood Release within him.
Although this Wood Release's power wasn't enough to rival Akihara Kagura's, it at least surpassed Tianzang's Wood Release, more than enough to build a house.
White Zetsu Awei contentedly observed the bone spike growing from his left hand and the wooden spike from his right hand, and reminded: "There are quite a few traces left here, should we destroy it?"
"Of course."
"Let's leave this task to Jiraiya-sensei."
Akihara Kagura had already made his plan, continuing: "Orochimaru-sama is meticulous, and once he discovers a flaw, he'll let Jiraiya-sensei notice that there's an Orochimaru-sama lab here, and he'll surely come to clean it up."
This sort of thing...
They had become very skilled at it long ago.
After all, any information that Jiraiya had been able to find had always been arranged by Akihara Kagura and White Zetsu Awei, even the timing was under their control.
White Zetsu Awei changed into the form of Orochimaru, leaving the experimental base under the watchful eyes of guards, then transformed back into the appearance of an ordinary small-town resident.
"I will spread rumors about the disappearance of people."
Indeed.
Every time Jiraiya destroyed Orochimaru's experimental base, he would learn from the guards that Orochimaru had just left not long ago.
Akihara Kagura, using the Dark Side of the Ninja World, had gathered intelligence that Orochimaru and Red Sand Sasori were heading to the Land of River, and instructed.
"This time, the spreading of information must be swift."
"Alright."
White Zetsu Awei was already adept at such affairs.
As Akihara Kagura watched White Zetsu Awei leave, he couldn't help but sigh: "Finally, there's an opportunity to meet again, Orochimaru-sama..."
Orochimaru was Akihara Kagura's first supervisor.
As the strongest known scientist in the Ninja World, Orochimaru had extremely rich resources, enough to be mined for a long time, and he was continually perfecting more forbidden jutsus and scientific technologies.
To find a chance to meet Orochimaru, hoping to receive an undercover mission by Jiraiya's side from him, Akihara Kagura actually found it quite challenging.
