Chapter 135 - 135 (2/2)

”Yes, soul! Well, I think it's one's consciousness. The body is just a vessel that accommodates it. If one was to figure out a way to make it move from one vessel to the other, they would find a way to achieve eternal life.”

After Ryo finished his words, Orochimaru stood still. After a good while, he started laughing. He never thought that Ryo would be the one to give him the clue he was seeking.

On top of being a Sannin, Orochimaru was often nicknamed ”Cold Blood”. Like a snake is a cold-blooded animal, he showed no emotions.

But today, after getting the clue to eternal life, Orochimaru's laughted was going of control, he was extremely happy!

”Orochi san, don't be so happy so early! Going for eternal life this way has its big problem.” Ryo said to Orochimaru.

”What problem?” Orochimaru was surprised, he calmed down a little bit then asked.

”It's about the soul, it's necessary that soul fits its new vessel well after making the transition. Otherwise, the soul would be damaged and its strength would be affected.”

Ryo problem sounded very reasonable to Orochimaru, but he believed that eternal life was worth all of that and even more.

”Orochi san, I know what you're thinking. Anyone would choose eternal life over a short one, even with the damage that could occur to their souls. However, I have a way to solve that problem and limit the damage. Curious to hear it?”  Ryo said with a smile, teasing Orochimaru.

Orochimaru looked at him helplessly and said: ”Ryo kun, I think we need to discuss the matter of these Sharingans.”

”No no we don't Orochi san.” Hearing Orochimaru's threat, Ryo stopped teasing him and told him everything he knew about cloning.

He compared the result of cloning to a Shadow Clone that never disappeared. Orochimaru quickly understood the matter, and also understood Ryo's solution.

It was all about one's own cells to clone their own body, the sealing the consciousness of the new body as it grows up to eliminate the problem of losing one's own soul.

Because it's your own body, it would surely fit your soul, and there should be no problem in adapting with it.

After learning about this, Orochimaru rushed out to another chamber in his lab. He had to conduct his research and had no time to take care of Ryo.

Ryo shook his head helplessly and returned to the 3rd Training Ground with Teleportation Barrier.

In Root's headquarters, Danzo, Koharu and Homura were together discussing the cooperation with with Orochimaru.

The two men's faces were expressionless, looking at Koharu who seemed a bit anxious.

”Danzo, even if Orochimaru took Kagami's eyes, there's no guarantee the he would be helpful to us. Why didn't you and Homura discuss this with me?”

She was somewhat angry, felt hurt by the fact that the eyes of their comrade were used as trading tools.

”Koharu, don't be angry. This is just the 1st step. We just need to keep providing Orochimaru with Kekkei Genkai, and he'll be on our side. Even if we never succeed, I have a way to get him out of Konoha.” Said Danzo.

Homura never spoke, but it was obvious that he was on Danzo side.

Koharu sighed and stopped arguing.

She got up, and left Root's headquarter.
