The motive behind reincarnating Uchiha Fugaku was simple—to obtain the reward in his possession.
Uchiha Fugaku's Mangekyō Sharingan held a high rank, and Orochimaru had also received a reward of significant value: a treasure known as the Blood Essence Pill, with a total of ten pieces.
This treasure could purify the blood in one's body, transforming impure blood into purity—an invaluable asset for any ninja with blood ties.
Additionally, the Blood Essence Pill had a secondary effect of weakly tempering the physique.
Given Orochimaru's numerous body transformations, including turning into a white-scaled snake and ingesting the monster cells of a large snake, the purification of blood through the Blood Essence Pill would be highly beneficial.
Furthermore, Orochimaru harbored an interest in researching these blood essence pills, with the hope of developing a treasure second only to the Blood Essence Pills. If cultivated in abundance, the value of such a creation would be immense.
Although Orochimaru desired other people's treasures, obtaining them proved challenging.
However, Uchiha Fugaku was the most accessible candidate for him to acquire the treasure, thanks to Uchiha Sasuke being in close proximity.
Convinced that Uchiha Fugaku would surrender the Blood Essence Pill, Orochimaru swiftly selected an offering from the Sound Shinobi Village base, prepared everything, and commenced the Impure World Reincarnation.
Almost immediately, the soul of the sacrifice was offered, and Uchiha Fugaku, residing in the Pure Land world, sensed his soul being summoned back to the present world.
His soul entered the sacrificial vessel, and with a sufficient supply of body cells, Orochimaru transformed the body into the Impure World Reincarnation of Uchiha Fugaku.
"Orochimaru, you reincarnated me in seconds?" Uchiha Fugaku observed his physical state and deduced what had transpired.
As a member of Konoha, he was familiar with this forbidden ninjutsu technique of the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama.
"That's right, Uchiha Fugaku, I, Orochimaru, have reincarnated you!" Orochimaru exclaimed.
"What do you want?" Uchiha Fugaku was displeased, disliking this form of reincarnation.
"It's very simple; I want the Blood Essence Pill!" Orochimaru stated his purpose.
"Impossible for you!" Uchiha Fugaku refused outright.
Although the Blood Essence Pill was useless to him, he couldn't give it to Orochimaru either.
"Don't be so sure. You should know that Uchiha Sasuke is here!" A sinister smile played on Orochimaru's face.
"You're going to threaten me with Sasuke?" Uchiha Fugaku retorted.
"It's not a threat, just a reminder!" Orochimaru added, "If you give me the Blood Essence Pill, I can arrange for you to meet and talk with Sasuke. You haven't seen Sasuke in a long time, right?"
Uchiha Fugaku remained silent for a while before saying, "I can give you five Blood Essence Pills, but the other five, I will give to Sasuke. You must not take them."
"Alright, I agree!"
Orochimaru nodded.
He understood that Uchiha Fugaku desired Sasuke to mature quickly, a prospect that also benefited Orochimaru. After all, Sasuke's body would eventually become entirely his. Even if Uchiha Fugaku didn't explicitly state it, Orochimaru was determined to accelerate Sasuke's growth. The stronger the body, the more perfect it would be.
"I need to see Sasuke first, and then you'll receive the blood essence pill," demanded Uchiha Fugaku.
"No problem!"
Orochimaru led Uchiha Fugaku to Sasuke.
Soon, father and son were reunited.
"Father!"
Sasuke was shocked to see his deceased father but quickly realized that this was not the body of a living person; it was a Impure World Reincarnation.
"Orochimaru, why did you reincarnate my father?" Sasuke questioned, slightly annoyed.
"Aren't you two reunited, father and son? Sasuke!" Orochimaru ignored Sasuke's annoyance, turned, and walked away, allowing them time for their reunion.
"Sasuke, how have you been all these years?" Uchiha Fugaku asked as he embraced his son.
Although they had conversed in the live broadcast room, many sentiments could only be conveyed face to face.
"Father, I'm fine!" Sasuke couldn't hold back the tears.
"Sasuke, this is the blood essence pill!"
Uchiha Fugaku extracted the blood essence and handed five pills to Sasuke.
"Blood Essence Pill!"
Sasuke knew about this valuable treasure; it was the reward for his father's Eye Technique List and held great value. He accepted it without hesitation, recognizing the need for his own growth.
"Sasuke, be cautious of Orochimaru. His motives are impure; perhaps he aims to take your body!" Uchiha Fugaku warned.
"I understand." Sasuke was well aware of Orochimaru's intentions. While Orochimaru used him, Sasuke also utilized Orochimaru's resources for his own growth. The ultimate winner remained uncertain.
Time passed, and after ten minutes, Orochimaru arrived.
"Uchiha Fugaku, the time is sufficient. Give me the blood essence pill!" Orochimaru implored urgently.
Without regret, Uchiha Fugaku promptly handed over the remaining five blood essence pills to Orochimaru.
Observing the Blood Essence Pill, Orochimaru's excitement was palpable.
Subsequently, he released the reincarnation, allowing Uchiha Fugaku's soul to return to the Pure Land world.
As time passed slowly, before anyone realized, it was the day when the Taijutsu List was refreshed.
This marked the third refresh of the Taijutsu List!
