Shinigami potion is ready

After saying that, a trace of cunning flashed through Rock Lee's eyes.

He had already learned about the relationship between Orochimaru and him from Naruto, so he was naughty for a moment.

Hearing this, Orochimaru's expression suddenly became somewhat startled.

Neri's expression was even more intriguing.

In her heart, she had already cursed Rock Lee countless times.

Damn, Sage.

Damn, muscle man.

Why did you say such provocative words? You are facing a terrifying Kage-rank who can overturn Konoha.

If he gets angry, we will die.

Is it not good to be alive? Must you court death?!

Neri had already mentally torn Rock Lee into a thousand pieces.

However, what she discovered next completely overturned her understanding of this world.

She saw her teammate. Naruto suddenly took off his mask and revealed a handsome face, as if he had seen an old friend. He greeted him,

"Long time no see, Orochimaru."

"Yes, long time no see. Naruto-kun, I missed you a lot since we parted last time." Orochimaru smiled sinisterly, revealing a horrifying smile.

Neri opened her eyes wide and looked at them in shock. The two of them looked friendly, and her heart was overwhelmed with shock.

What was going on?

How could Shinigami know Orochimaru?

They shouldn't have any chance to get to know each other.

Is it the collapse plan of Konoha?

No!

It doesn't make sense at all!

Does Danzo, the leader of Root, know about all of this?

Is the Shinigami a traitor?!

Then what about Sage?

Neri looked at Rock Lee, only to see Rock Lee standing beside Naruto, looking at him with a meaningful expression.

Neri's heart was instantly filled with despair.

They were all in the same group!

She looked around.

In the vast laboratory, being all alone, it feels like she packaging herself and presenting herself to them. What's the difference between that and handing herself over to them for free?

"Naruto-kun, it seems that your companions do not know about our relationship. Is this good? That old man Danzo should still be suspicious of you, right?" Orochimaru revealed a playful smile and said.

"These are not important." Naruto gently shook his head and looked at Neri gently. "Insect Queen, no, Neri is on my side. She has not been brainwashed by Root."

Hearing this, Neri was even more shocked.

It turned out that unknowingly, Naruto had already seen through her.

When was it?

She recalled all the details in Naruto's commission.

Every time, she was so confident, as if everything was under control.

In the past, she had even looked down on him.

Now, it seemed that she had been seen through.

"Are you alright? Neri?" Naruto looked at Neri, his eyes warm like the gentle sun, his voice full of magnetism.

"Yes! Of course! Root's brainwashing methods are too despicable. I want to follow the wise and farsighted Lord Naruto forever." Neri took off her mask, revealing her beautiful face. She knelt on one knee and said piously.

"Looks like we're all on the same side." Seeing this, Orochimaru nodded in satisfaction. He turned around and walked inside: "I'll show you guys how Hollow is."

"Let's go, remember what you said." Naruto withdrew his gaze and followed Orochimaru with her team members.

Walking at the back of the team, Neri found that her back was already drenched.

Her eyes flickered with fear.

She looked at the back of Naruto.

The brain was thinking about the next countermeasures.

Naruto had hidden too deeply.

He, who cooperated with Orochimaru, definitely did not put Konoha in his eyes.

Not only did he deceive Danzo, but even Konoha's higher-ups were played in the palm of his hand.

Neri did not have a sense of belonging to Konoha.

All she wanted was more experimental materials and life.

Since she formed a team with Naruto, she got many precious materials, and even had a strong interest in Naruto's body.

Before she achieved her goal, she did not want to collapse with Naruto.

Therefore.

Following Naruto seemed to be a good choice.

As someone who has joined now, I can consider myself one of the senior-level followers.

Moreover, since Naruto and Orochimaru are cooperating, I will have many opportunities to study the bodies of the blood-stained ninja as well.

After thinking through all of this, Neri's mood suddenly became clear, and she quickly followed behind Naruto, feeling very happy in her heart.

...

"Hollow transformed from a soul... To be precise, the soul can transform into two forms, one is Hollow, the other is Shinigami..." In the laboratory, Orochimaru patiently explained the information about Hollow.

On the side, Neri, with several small notebooks in hand, and her insects, are diligently taking notes, documenting their findings.

This way, she could record all the content to the maximum extent, and there would be no omissions.

This cute scene made people laugh.

Rock Lee listened seriously.

In the future, he would accept the power of Shinigami or Hollow, and he could not make a small mistake.

Orochimaru also understood Naruto's intentions, so he began to analyze Reiatsu in a step-by-step manner, allowing Neri and Rock Lee to understand this unfamiliar power system.

"Now I have completed the preliminary Reiatsu potion. I have diluted the internal Reiatsu to a certain extent and fused it with a large amount of chakra. I have stored these powers within the body tissues of special Bloodline Shinobi." Orochimaru smirked darkly and took out a vial from a hidden compartment. Inside was a murky mixture of blood and muscle tissues.

"This is the preliminary result of the experiment. The success rate of the injected experimental subject Shinigami will be very high." Orochimaru shook the potion in his hand, and his blood and muscle tissues kept rolling and shaking.

"Although the reagent has not yet conducted a large-scale experiment, its function has been roughly determined. Generally, nothing unexpected will happen. Do you want to try it? Becoming Shinigami is very beautiful." Orochimaru revealed a perverted smile, and his eyes swept over Rock Lee and Neri.

"Ahem, I don't need it for now." Neri decisively refused.

She didn't want to be a neither human nor ghost like Hollow.

On the contrary, Rock Lee was eager to try.

"If I have the ability of Shinigami, I can become stronger. This way, I can become Naruto's strongest follower!"

"Now is not the time for you to become Shinigami." However, Naruto shook his head at Rock Lee.

"I spent a lot of resources to produce this reagent. I don't want to use this reagent on some experimental materials." Seeing Rock Lee and Neri refuse, Orochimaru seemed a little regretful.

However, Naruto pondered for a moment and said, "If you don't mind, can you give this reagent to me? I have an excellent goal."

Upon seeing this, Naruto pondered for a moment and said, "If you don't mind, could you give me this potion? I have an excellent target in mind."

"Right, you want to use the reagent..."

"I made a promise to a certain tanuki to help him break free from his seal. I think now is the opportunity," Naruto replied with a gentle smile in response to Orochimaru's question.
