5th Simulation! Part-6

{Kōchiyo Village, Land of Fire}

{10:25 AM, 18 March 78 Yrs}

This wasn't the way Hiroshi expected the simulation to go... okay so maybe in hindsight he should have seen something like this happen as soon as Kabuto got involved with his team, while it was just a 50% chance that you were the target, Kabuto wouldn't risk his position being discovered for just Ren, a talented sensor genin.

'What now, at least I wasn't turned into experimental material by him, though since I was marked with the {Cursed Seal of Earth}, it was safe to say that I had already passed his first experiment... it isn't all bad though if I could get out of this situation of being a lab rat, then I could maybe use this as a breakthrough, even though the cursed seal would corrupt my chakra pathway, and would contain a piece of Orochimaru's soul to survive inside of it, it would give me enough power and speed boost that I should be strong enough to be a jounin, and being a strong jounin means that I would get a but load of simulation points...'

As the plan started to form in Hiroshi's mind he looked forward while willing his character in the simulation to act in a certain way.

[Day 83: Orochimaru welcomed you back to the land of living as you slowly regained consciousness, it was the three of you once again but this time in a different lab, you looked through your status to find most of the abnormal status almost gone except some, at least according to your stats it didn't look like you had gone through another experiment, well except for the certain numbness you could feel on your spine. Orochimaru waved your worries away saying that he just borrowed your cells for some comparisons but you didn't like the smile that was creeping on his face. You opened your mouth and spoke in a hoarse tone, "Sasuke, Cursed seal of Heaven..." There was a brief silence that followed your reply and while Kabuto looked at you with a confused expression, Orochimaru's grinning visage immediately transformed into a blank look before he laughed in a creepy manner. "Kabuto-kun, it looks like your little friend here needs to talk to me alone, do you mind..." While Orochimaru easily waved Kabuto away, his eyes were hungrily looking at you.]

'That should be a good enough bait, now I need to try and make him believe that sometimes I can see things happening around the world, while sometimes looking at the past and sometimes at the future. I think Sasuke should be the perfect bait for him to bite...'

It was a contingency that Hiroshi had thought of in his spare time, being a seer was a perfect way to stay alive long enough for everyone to try and determine if you are speaking the truth on an off chance that whatever you are speaking is the truth or not.

[Day 83: As Kabuto left Orochimaru took a few steps towards you so that he was standing almost right above you, you felt a wave of killing intent wash over you as you froze. After shivering for a few moments you slowly told him that some months ago you started seeing flashes of the past and very rarely the future, and that's how you knew who Kabuto was and who he was. You paused before continuing by saying that you have seen him marking Sasuke with the seal in your visions, you saw him killing the third Hokage, how the Third sealed his hands by surprising him with a forbidden technique, how the summoning of 4th Hokage's Edo Tensai failed. What followed your ramblings was silence, Orochimaru was looking at you, his eyes scanning through your face, you weren't sure about what he saw but he grinned and that was the last thing you saw before you blacked out.]

'...I didn't die.'

[Day 115: You woke up, a familiar silence greeted you as tried to open your eyes, it took just a moment for you to realize that something was very wrong, your hand immediately went towards your eyes, and your eyes were covered in bandages, a dull ache throbbed through your eye as your hand tried to make out if it was there or not before a sharp voice stopped your movement, "Kekkkekkew, it's alright Hiroshi-Kun you don't have to panic, your eyes are alright just raw, the abilities you told me about was just too interested to pass up, alas unlike the Sharingan it seems like just transplanting your eyes don't give people your abilities, Kekkkekkew..." You took a few deep breaths as you calmed down, the initial panic receding somewhat as you noticed that your hands weren't tied to the bed anymore and your body was now brimming with strength. Though unfortunately, you couldn't see your status screen in your current condition so you turned to Orochimaru and asked how long it has been.]

'He fucking dug my eyes out in order to try and verify if what I was saying was the truth...'

Hiroshi was reeling from what he had just read, it was a little unfathomable to him what Orochimaru attempted but it seems like trying to predict a psychopath's actions wasn't exactly a smart thing to do. Thankfully though he survived since his hands were free and he could feel his strength that means for now Orochimaru decided his worth was greater than being a lab rat.

'I should ask him why did Kabuto target me though so I could avoid it in the next simulation, or maybe if the results of this simulation are good then maybe I could repeat it.'

[Day 115: Orochimaru did his weird laugh before he tapped his hands against your shoulder while saying in a smug tone that Hiruzen Sarutobi was dead. You nodded as you figured that it's been at least more than a month since you were captured, you tried to sit up but a firm hand pressed on your shoulders stopped that from happening, "Kekkkekkew, no need to hurry Hiroshi-kun, although your body has adapted to the {Cursed Seal}, it still needs some rest, plus I have a surprise planned for you in a few days by the time your eyes heal, Kekkkekkew..." after that as you laid down you could clearly hear Orochimaru's footsteps retreating. You didn't do anything rash for now, as you enjoyed your semi-freedom and tried to sleep.]

'I don't think I'm gonna like the surprise...'
