Orochimaru

Konoha Village.

In a secret experimental base.

Orochimaru looked at Takuya and the little boy with white hair next to him, his eyes full of interest.

"Takuya-kun, why have you come to see me this time?" Orochimaru asked curiously.

"Nothing much. I just wanted to ask, how far has your experiment progressed?" Takuya asked.

"Well... the cloning technology you mentioned to me has been mastered. Whether it's organs or clones, it doesn't matter. Even the two Mangekyō Sharingan you gave me originally, I have cloned hundreds of pairs. However, Senju Hashirama's cells are still very domineering, and the Wood Style transplant experiment has never been successful."

Orochimaru reported his work during this period to Takuya in detail, his tone a bit excited. The current research results were something he never dared to imagine before. The power he once dreamed of was now within his reach. Although there were still many unresolved problems, he believed he would understand everything in the future. After all, for him now, eternal life had been achieved.

Takuya nodded lightly after hearing this. This rate of progress... should he say that Orochimaru was worthy of being a scientific research madman?

"Takuya-kun, can you give me some more advice? Questions about Senju Hashirama cell transplantation?" Orochimaru looked at Takuya with burning eyes, hoping to get some advice.

"Well... if cell transplantation has not been successful, you can try genetic technology," Takuya suggested after a moment of thought.

"Genes?" Orochimaru was a little confused. What was this?

"Genes support the basic structure and performance of life. They store all information about life's race, blood type, reproduction, growth, apoptosis, and other processes..."

Takuya explained everything he knew about genes to Orochimaru. Orochimaru's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

"Takuya-kun, are you saying that genes control everything in life?"

"That's right."

After receiving Takuya's affirmative answer, Orochimaru became excited. According to Takuya, genes were the root of everything. As long as they mastered genetic technology, they would no longer have to worry about cell rejection.

"Takuya-kun, you are such a genius," Orochimaru looked at Takuya and sighed sincerely. He considered his achievements in biotechnology top-notch, but compared to Takuya, he was still far behind. A word from Takuya could give him a feeling of enlightenment.

"Orochimaru, don't look at me like that," Takuya said, feeling uncomfortable under Orochimaru's fiery gaze.

"How rude. Maybe it has something to do with this body," Orochimaru realized that something was wrong with him and tried to calm down. Now his body was a woman's body. Even if it was him, it was inevitably affected by the hormones secreted by the body.

"I advise you to change back to your original body as soon as possible. Didn't you already master cloning technology?"

"Understood. Takuya-kun, don't worry."

Orochimaru snorted. Really, with such an expression, could it be that Takuya-kun suspected something wrong with his orientation? But, who would have thought, even Takuya-kun, who is feared by all ninjas in the ninja world, has something to be afraid of. It was really interesting.

Looking at Orochimaru, Takuya felt a chill run down his spine.

There was something unsettling about the way Orochimaru had looked at him just now.

No, for his own safety, Takuya decided it would be best to avoid Orochimaru until he returned to his male body.

Thinking of this, Takuya decided to waste no time in ending this conversation.

"Orochimaru, this child is named Kimimaro. He's a very talented kid. From now on, let him follow you."

Upon hearing Takuya's words, Kimimaro, who had been quietly standing by, walked up to Orochimaru. "Lord Orochimaru, please take care of me."

"Takuya-kun, what are your intentions in giving this child to me?" Orochimaru ignored Kimimaro, keeping his focus on Takuya.

"He has a very serious blood disease, and I need you to help cure it. Additionally, I will ask Tsunade to assist you."

In the original work, blood disease is a very serious condition. The more talented a ninja is and the deeper their development of bloodline limits, the more likely they are to suffer from blood diseases. For such diseases, there is no effective treatment. Kimimaro and Itachi both succumbed to blood diseases.

Now, as the power of his bloodline grew stronger, his descendants would inherit all his powerful abilities. While they might not necessarily suffer from blood diseases, it was better to take precautions in advance.

"I see. Leave this matter to me," Orochimaru nodded. Although blood disease is a terminal illness, given his current research conditions, it was not impossible to solve.

"Then I'll leave now," Takuya said, preparing to leave.

But Orochimaru stopped him. "Takuya-kun, please wait a moment."

"What's wrong?"

Orochimaru looked at Takuya's wary eyes, a helpless smile forming on his lips. Didn't he just lose his composure? It was just due to the hormones secreted by his body; his mind was perfectly clear. Was it necessary to be this cautious?

"Takuya-kun, I have a gift for you today," Orochimaru said, clapping his hands.

After a while, a woman wearing a coat and fishnet stockings emerged from the depths of the experimental base.

"Anko?"

Looking at the woman, Takuya raised an eyebrow.

"I didn't expect you to know her. I heard you've been working hard to revive the Senju clan, so I thought this might help," Orochimaru said. "Anko, from now on, you will follow Takuya-kun."

"Understood, Lord Orochimaru. I will obey any orders you give me," Anko said, kneeling on the ground with a serious expression.

"Orochimaru, I don't like forcing others," Takuya said, touching his nose.

"Lord Hokage, I was not forced. In fact, this is the opportunity I've been longing for," Anko said earnestly.

"Anko, you really can't hold back, can you? There goes my plan of currying favor," Orochimaru said, shaking his head helplessly. He had hoped to gain some favor from Takuya with this gesture.

"Anko, why do you want to follow me?" Takuya asked curiously.

"Lord Hokage, Kurenai is my good friend. She often talks about you, and through her, I realized how great you are. So, I want to contribute to reviving the Senju clan," Anko said bravely.

Looking at her firm gaze, Takuya touched his nose helplessly. Good grief, Anko had been brainwashed by Kurenai. This was just like how Kurenai had been influenced by Kushina.

But looking at Anko's beautiful face, Takuya nodded and agreed. "In that case, Anko, come with me. I'll treat you to some dango."

"That's great, thank you, Lord Hokage!" Anko said happily.

Her favorite food was dango.

"Anko, follow Takuya-kun well and make sure to behave. Understand?" Orochimaru gently reminded her.

"Understood," Anko responded.

"Alright, let's go," Takuya said, unable to stand Orochimaru's gaze any longer. He quickly took Anko and activated Kamui to leave the experimental base.

"Orochimaru-sama, what's Kamui?" Kimimaro asked curiously.

"It's a powerful space-time ninjutsu," Orochimaru replied. "Come with me, Kimimaro."

Konoha Village.

At the Jingu Zensai Dessert Shop, Anko's eyes lit up at the sight of the array of desserts before her.

"Lord Hokage, are all these for me?" Anko asked in disbelief.

Jingu Zensai was the most upscale dessert shop in Konoha. The desserts were not only delicious but also exquisitely crafted. It was a place only wealthy ninjas or affluent businessmen could afford.

The table in front of her was filled with all kinds of exquisite desserts, and it must have cost a fortune.

"Eat as much as you like. This store is my property; it costs me nothing," Takuya smiled.

Although Anko had willingly decided to follow him, he wanted to build a rapport first. Treating her to dessert was undoubtedly the best way.

"Then I'll start," Anko said cheerfully. Though she loved desserts, she had never been to Jingu Zensai before. So, faced with the long-awaited food, she didn't bother with decorum.

"Eat slowly. From now on, you can come and eat anytime you want," Takuya said with a smile.

Hearing his words, Anko's heart couldn't help but beat with excitement. Eat whenever she wanted? Wasn't that too extravagant? This was the feeling of luxury, and it was fantastic!

For some reason, Anko found the Takuya in front of her much more charming than usual.

The surrounding crowd looked at Anko with envy.

After all, being with Takuya had become the wish of all unmarried women in the entire ninja world.

"I'm so envious. I want to have dessert with Lord Hokage."

"Yes, one dessert here costs half a year's salary for me."

"Why can't I be lucky enough to be favored by Lord Hokage?"

"Oh, this girl will be happy from now on. I want to be Mrs. Hokage too..."

Compared to the women, the men around looked disheartened.

If they could, they would have protested loudly to Takuya.

"Lord Hokage, please give us a chance too. If you keep this up, will we ever find wives?!"
