Snake bite

"What rank is that technique, S?" she asked.

I shook my head "Right now I can only say it's high A rank since it's incomplete. So far I can cover both of my arms and up to my waist but that's where my current bottleneck comes into play as I can't get the chakra to go over my legs as well." I said honestly.

"I see, you are aiming to create something like the Raikages lightning cloak then?" she asked and I shook my head again.

"I figured that out a while ago, or at least I replicated the effects of said jutsu from what I have read. No what I am trying to replicate is the ability of all mangekyou sharingan, Susanoo. It was said to be the ultimate defense and if my understanding was correct also basically a pure chakra technique manifested through the eyes of the user for the Uchiha though they don't know HOW exactly it worked. If I could see the thing in action myself I wouldn't have so much trouble replicating it with pure chakra control as I would know what exactly I needed to do." I said frustrated.

The conversation more or less ended there and I wandered the village hoping to be struck by some form of inspiration to get out of this bottleneck. I wasn't really paying attention at the time or I would have reacted before someone bumped into me and I felt a slight stinging sensation on my arm. I immediately lashed out at the person but they just laughed even as my hand went right through them. With a puff of smoke they vanished and I looked down at my left arm and frowned hard at the highly bent syringe sticking just under my hard skin there.-

I ripped it out and immediately flickered back to my sensei as a slow burning sensation spread through the point of puncture to the rest of my body. She looked confused for all over a moment before she noticed the pain on my face and the syringe in my hand.

"Guards lock down the village! Someone attacked Kenzo!" she roared as she dashed over to me as my vision began to blur.

PAIN

That was all I could feel for the length of time that I was out of it, an agonizing amount of pain like I was being ripped apart and then salted.

(3rd person POV)

Moments after Kenzo dropped unconscious in the Hokages office the village went on red alert while Tsunade worked to diagnose and treat Kenzo on the spot.

'This is.... cellular restructuring!? Damnit I need to slow the foreign cells advance until I can identify exactly what is going on!' She thought seriously as she made a risky plan and slowed his heart beat to the absolute minimum that she could without damaging him permanently.

This drastically slowed the spread but hadn't stopped it by any means. It was also far too late to remove the arm affected as the cells had spread beyond it to the rest of the body though in such small amounts that there was a chance to fight them off before they caused too much damage. Tsunade rushed Kenzo to the hospital ignoring any damage she caused in the process to the building and once there they put him on ice to further slow the spread of the foreign cells while the syringe he brought with him was taken to a lab to be tested. Due to the rush put on it the results were gotten within two hours and reading it Tsunade knew exactly who was behind this.-

"OROCHIMARU!" she spat out the word like it was the most disgusting taste she ever experienced.

Indeed the snake sannin was the one responsible for this event and had taken quite the care with his preparations to make sure it went smoothly. For context the snake sannin had branched out his samples of notable lineages to try and discover something capable of creating the perfect bloodline fusion he wanted to inject into Kenzo. It was a stroke of luck then that he discovered that the Uchiha, Hyuga, Chinoike, Uzumaki, Senju, Kaguya and a few other scattered clans all had a shared ancestor. -

In each individual clan that ancestors genes had been diluted and scattered but Orochimaru was not one to shy from a difficult matter and set to work extracting these fragments and trying to piece them together. It had taken him until six months ago to obtain a stable fifty percent complete genetic sample of this ancestor. He then worked to take the genetic samples of Kenzo and fuse them with the sample of this ancestor which took another three months of work to finally succeed at.-

He then sequenced this new bloodline he had created and created a clone to see if the bloodline would serve his purpose. Two weeks later he examined the now complete clone and smiled greedily. There was no real issues at all besides the strange hornlike protrusions that grew from the clones head that he tested to be harmless. Excitingly though the eyes of the clone were in an incomplete state much like those of any clones he made of the Uchiha or Hyuga which meant there was more likely than not a dojutsu there.-

The clone was disposed of after it's eyes were harvested since he had accelerated it's growth and thus shortened it's lifespan to mere months to begin with. With this new bloodline done he now had to figure out how to inject it into Kenzo and so he went to work on that for the next two and a half months and finally enacted his plan. The plan was quite simple really, infiltrate Konoha with several shadow clones with civilian levels of chakra so as to not register in Kenzo's senses. Then these clones would wait for an oppurtunity to inject Kenzo with the bloodline catalyst to prime his body to receive the bloodline.-

Regardless of what his old teammate did once injected the catalyst couldn't be stopped and without the follow up bloodline the boy would die meaning he'd be allowed to complete the plan even if they wanted his head. Oh sure the first clone who appeared in front of his old teammate got killed in a fit of rage but he expected this and thus had a back up waiting.

"He'll die unless you allow me to inject this bloodline into him and no I won't allow you to test it first lest you taint it and kill the boy. His death would be rather vexing for me you see. Besides I'm helping make him even more powerful so if anything you should be thanking me." the clone said with a slimy grin and chuckle.
