[Tokisaki Kurumi: Good morning, everyone!]
[Tsunade: Good morning. By the way, have you successfully drawn qi into your body yet?]
[Tokisaki Kurumi: Yes, I've completed qi induction.]
[Tsunade: Me too.]
The next morning, Victor opened the chat group as soon as he woke up and saw the two newcomers proudly sharing their achievements.
[Victor: Not bad at all. It seems both of you possess exceptional cultivation aptitude.]
[Shinoa Hiiragi: I'm in tears. Envy makes my face look hideous.]
As the one with the worst cultivation talent in the group, Shinoa had always felt somewhat inferior. Now even the newcomers were surpassing her progress, which made her confidence plummet even further.
[Victor: Don't be envious. When I become stronger in the future, I'll refine Marrow Cleansing Pills for you to improve your cultivation qualifications.]
[Shinoa Hiiragi: I humbly thank the Abstract Emperor! orz]
[Victor: By the way, Tsunade, are you the Hokage now?]
[Tsunade: Hokage? Only a fool would want to be that kind of leader.]
When she thought of the Hokage position, she couldn't help but recall her brother's innocent smile. That memory remained one of her deepest wounds.
Even if she starved to death, she would never become that damned Hokage!
Tsunade's answer allowed Victor to confirm the current timeline of the Naruto world. This should be the period when the Konoha Twelve had just graduated from the Ninja Academy. The ninja world at this time was filled with undercurrents, the last calm before the storm. In a few years, the Fourth Ninja World War would break out.
[Victor: Tsunade, are you free right now? I want to visit your world.]
[Kiana: Is Victor planning to wreak havoc in the ninja world?]
[Lumine: A moment of silence for the people in the ninja world.]
[Tsunade: Please don't cause chaos. This place can't withstand your brand of mayhem.]
When she thought of Victor's abstract abilities, Tsunade felt genuinely worried. If Victor went to harm other villages, she naturally wouldn't object. But she was afraid he might destroy Konoha as well.
Although she claimed she didn't care about Konoha, her body was very honest. After all, as the granddaughter of the First Hokage, no one loved Konoha more than her!
[Victor: What are you talking about? Am I such a person? Don't think of me as so wicked!]
[Rin Tohsaka: If you're not a troublemaker, then pigs can fly.]
[Victor: Picture attached: Flying pig]
[Rin Tohsaka: ...]
Victor thought smugly: Fortunately, my photo collection is extensive!
[Stelle: Since you don't want to farm Abstract Points, then what do you want to do by going to her world? You don't want to pick up girls, do you?]
Thinking of Tsunade's impressive figure and then looking at her own modest proportions, Stelle had reason to suspect that Victor was going there just to chase women!
Victor could practically smell the jealousy through the screen.
[Victor: To be honest, I'm going to the ninja world purely to obtain a pair of eyes and conduct an experiment, a resurrection experiment.]
If there was anything in the ninja world that he valued, it was the Rinnegan's ability to resurrect the dead. He just didn't know if this resurrection ability could be used in other worlds, so he had to conduct an experiment.
[Shinoa Hiiragi: Resurrection?!]
[Tsunade: !]
[Belle: !]
[Kiana: !]
[Tokisaki Kurumi: !]
[Stelle: !]
After these words were spoken, many girls in the group became agitated. After all, who didn't have a few regrets in life?
[Victor: I know what you're thinking, but don't worry. If the experiment is successful, I'll help you revive your deceased loved ones.]
[Victor: Also, I can understand the exclamation marks from the first few people, but why you, Stelle? You don't have anyone to revive.]
[Stelle: Can't I just give you a supportive +1?]
[Victor: Fair enough.]
[Tsunade: Come here immediately.]
At this moment, Tsunade couldn't wait for Victor to arrive. It would be wonderful if they could truly resurrect the dead. Her brother, and... never mind, that other person didn't matter.
[Victor: Please wait a moment.]
After saying that, Victor went offline. He left his room and found Krul, who was training diligently.
That's right, Krul had now also begun practicing the Return to Origin Art. As his maid, she couldn't afford to be too weak, so Victor had taught her the cultivation technique.
"Not bad at all. You've already reached the sixth level of Qi Training."
Even within the chat group, Krul's qualifications ranked in the first tier.
The sound of his voice made Krul withdraw from her cultivation session. She slowly opened her blood-red eyes, a hint of curiosity within them.
"What do you need from me?"
Victor said, "Come with me somewhere, and bring Asuramaru with you."
Since this was an experiment, there had to be test subjects, right? Asuramaru was the experimental subject chosen by Victor. After all, he didn't have many souls on hand now, only Asuramaru and the Herrscher of the Void. He was reluctant to use the latter for experiments, so the former would have to suffice.
"Understood." Krul didn't ask any more questions. She retrieved Asuramaru from the nearby cabinet.
Then Victor opened the chat group again.
[Victor: I'm coming over now.]
As soon as he finished speaking, a dimensional portal appeared before Tsunade and Shizune. Victor walked through with Krul beside him.
"So handsome!"
Both master and disciple were instantly captivated by Victor's stunning appearance, with Shizune unable to help exclaiming in admiration.
Tsunade quickly regained her composure and turned to look at Krul beside Victor. "Who is this?"
Victor gently patted Krul's small head and said with obvious affection, "She's my little maid. Her name is Krul. Isn't she cute? I found her!"
Krul didn't resist Victor's intimate gesture, instead feeling a little pleased in her heart.
Upon hearing this, Tsunade nodded to Krul as a greeting.
"So, how do you plan to conduct this experiment?"
Victor smiled mysteriously. "It seems someone is looking for you, so we won't have to worry about finding test subjects."
After saying that, Victor turned his gaze toward the woods behind Tsunade.
Upon hearing this, Tsunade's expression changed slightly, and she immediately became alert, scanning their surroundings.
Under everyone's watchful gaze, two slender figures pushed aside the bushes and emerged.
The leader was a man with vertical pupils and pale skin that seemed almost translucent. The second figure was a young man wearing glasses who exuded an elegant, intellectual temperament.
"Orochimaru? Why are you here?"
Seeing the leading man, Tsunade looked genuinely surprised.
Orochimaru's eyes swept over everyone present before finally locking onto Tsunade.
"Haha, of course I came to see you."
His voice was hoarse and unpleasant, carrying a hint of eeriness that made one's hair stand on end.
"Looking for me?"
Tsunade crossed her arms and spoke with obvious hostility. "It's really strange that a disgusting person like you would seek me out. I'm guessing this definitely isn't good news, right?"
"Haha, on the contrary, this might be excellent news for you." Orochimaru said with a sinister smile. "Tsunade, let's make a deal."
Tsunade said nothing, motioning for him to continue.
"My hands are severely damaged, and I need your help to heal them."
Hearing this, Tsunade noticed Orochimaru's unnaturally hanging arms.
My goodness, this is more than just an injury, they're completely useless!
Who was so impressive that they could cripple Orochimaru's hands?
I'd love to give them a thumbs up!
