When Orochimaru heard Ye Chen's words, he immediately revealed an excited expression.
His purpose for coming here was naturally for Ye Chen's secret. If Ye Chen was so cooperative, it would save him a lot of trouble.
Although Ye Chen had promised him that as long as he submitted, he would give him all of Ye Chen's ninjutsu, Ye Chen did not come looking for him after that.
That was why Orochimaru was so anxious. It had only been a day and he had already come to find Ye Chen.
Orochimaru stuck out his long tongue again and said with interest,
" Then come with me. Let's go to my laboratory first…"
After hearing this, Zilaiye understood that there seemed to be some secret between Ye Chen and Orochimaru.
Thinking back to Orochimaru's daily experiments, he guessed that it was probably related to Ye Chen's sudden possession of the Bloodline Limit.
However, he wasn't really interested in these things. Then, he said indifferently,
"Looks like I'm the only one who can enjoy the beautiful scenery today…"
After bidding farewell to Yukiya, Orochimaru led Ye Chen out of Muye Village and arrived at the Forest of Death not far from Muye Village.
This was the trial ground where the examination was held later on. The current environment in the Forest of Death was even worse. There were even some spiritual pythons appearing from time to time.
Most of these giant pythons were more than ten meters long. Even a Jounin would find it difficult to deal with them.
Fortunately, Ye Chen and the other man were at least Elite Jounin, so these wild beasts did not cause much trouble.
Ye Chen did not expect Orochimaru's laboratory to be set up in such a crappy place.
However, there was no one around here, and there were snakes everywhere. It was very suitable for Orochimaru to use local materials to study his moves related to snakes.
When they arrived at a river, Orochimaru pressed a tree beside him lightly, and a path that extended underground appeared. It seemed that his laboratory was underground.
After entering the laboratory, the light began to dim. At this time, Orochimaru's status was not high enough, and the resources he had were very limited, so the laboratory was not considered big.
He could see everything at a glance.
The air was filled with the smell of medicine and even the faint smell of rotting flesh. Ye Chen frowned.
"Sooner or later, something will go wrong with your brain if you stay in this kind of environment every day…"
Orochimaru surprisingly didn't talk back.
"For my lifelong pursuit, it doesn't matter what price I have to pay."
From the sound of it, he didn't care even if he went crazy in the end. Only such a stubborn person could finally develop the forbidden techniques of the Undying Reincarnation and the improved Filthy Earth Reincarnation.
Ye Chen did not intend to persuade him anymore. Anyway, Orochimaru was just fine. If Orochimaru lost his scientific research skills, his existence as a talent would be meaningless.
"Actually, my ability is not ninjutsu, but something more special."
Orochimaru immediately perked up when he heard Ye Chen talk about the main topic.
"Oh? Isn't it also the limit of the Blood Successor?"
Ye Chen did not answer. Instead, he raised his hand. The next moment, his right hand turned into lightning.
Unlike Hidden Cloud's Thunder God Armor, Ye Chen's physical body had completely transformed into lightning instead of just being covered in a layer of lightning.
The next moment, Ye Chen took out a saber and casually attacked his right hand. However, he did not cause any damage. He only drew various patterns on the lightning that did not have a physical body and then recovered in the blink of an eye.
Orochimaru's eyes widened when he saw this. He was a scientific genius, so he could tell at a glance that Ye Chen was different. This was equivalent to completely transforming his physical body into natural energy. Perhaps this was another level of integration with nature?
"Spalasi! What a fascinating power…"
Ye Chen could not help but feel disgusted when he saw Orochimaru's infatuation. Being stared at by a man like this was really creepy. It even made Ye Chen feel a chill down his anus.
Then, Ye Chen's hand that was holding the saber shook and the saber was instantly covered in a layer of black substance.
When Orochimaru saw this black substance, he moved closer to it and saw through it completely.
Suddenly, Ye Chen's hand moved. The saber that was covered in the color of a weapon cut off a small piece of flesh from his right hand.
This time, the blade was not dodged by the Elementalization. Instead, it really hurt Ye Chen. Ye Chen's wound had already begun to bleed!
Orochimaru was even more puzzled when he saw this.
"What exactly is this black substance? From the looks of it, even the ethereal natural energy could be directly attacked!？”
Ye Chen looked at the small piece of meat on the ground and said to Orochimaru,
"That's your research material this time. I hope you can come up with something new."
Orochimaru finally understood Ye Chen's plan.
"Very good. This piece of flesh should be able to bring my research one step closer!”
Picking up the piece of meat, Orochimaru carefully kept it.
Then, he turned around and was about to begin his research, completely ignoring Ye Chen's existence.
Ye Chen shook his head when he saw Orochimaru's infatuation.
He wasn't afraid of Orochimaru studying him. Instead, he hoped that Orochimaru could figure out the reason behind it. Then, he might be able to replicate the ability of his Demon Fruit.
Even if Ye Chen could not replicate this ability, as long as he could better understand the rules of the operation of the Thunderclap ability, he could develop it to the awakening stage of the fruit faster.
As for Orochimaru studying him thoroughly and then attacking him?
Ye Chen was not afraid of this at all. Under the suppression of absolute strength, it was useless no matter how many schemes he played.
The difference in strength between him and Orochimaru would only get bigger and bigger in the future. It would be so big that Orochimaru would not be able to resist.
Orochimaru had been a peak Shadow Rank throughout his life. Ye Chen, on the other hand, would soon reach the Supershadow or even Six Paths Rank. Therefore, there was no need to be too wary of Orochimaru.
Moreover, in Ye Chen's opinion, even though Orochimaru was talented, he would not be able to figure out anything about the Demonic Fruit in One Piece's world, which had almost the power of the Maxim.
After Ye Chen left, Orochimaru muttered,
" He actually didn't make any requests? What an interesting fellow…"
……
After returning from Orochimaru's place, Ye Chen immediately began to gather supplies. He was about to enter the Mental Time Room.
Recently, his cultivation had reached a bottleneck. If he did not go to the mental time room, he would probably be stuck for a long time.
However, the environment in the mental time room was very harsh. Therefore, other than food and water, he needed to improve his physical fitness as much as possible and master a certain level of medical ninjutsu.
Once he was inside, he could heal himself immediately after he was injured during cultivation and continue to cultivate.
For this rare spiritual journey, Ye Chen had made complete preparations.
