Chapter 492: Orochimaru: As Long as the Liver Doesn't Die, Work it to Death!
Chapter 492: Orochimaru: As Long as the Liver Doesn't Die, Work it to Death!
Half a year!
Dong Ping had been at Orochimaru's research base for such a long time.
Uchiha Yai had left after a month to return to the Heavenly Fortress, leaving him and Hyuga Cangyue to monitor Orochimaru.
But staying wasn't entirely about keeping an eye on Orochimaru.
After a month, they had already learned of the terrifying power of Alter Heaven.
Orochimaru was completely unaware of any changes within himself.
After all, there weren't many modifications, and the current relationship between the two sides was a private collaboration between the Heavenly Fortress and the Sound Ninja Village, so their visits were quite normal.
Since Orochimaru could cooperate with Danzo, why couldn't he cooperate with the Heavenly Fortress?
Even if they knew he was a member of the Shell Organization, Orochimaru was still a member of Akatsuki.
Yes, he had already joined the Akatsuki.
In a way, Dong Ping's use of Alter Heaven was to make Orochimaru acknowledge his Blazing Sun Will, and with their good relationship, he admired Dong Ping.
If it was a simple and crude modification of memory and values, it would surely be noticed by Orochimaru.
But under these 'reasonable' circumstances, Orochimaru naturally wouldn't sense anything.
Moreover, the Heavenly Seal was already taking effect, further improving their relationship.
Now, Dong Ping had obtained all of Orochimaru's accumulated knowledge.
You heard right, he had indeed obtained Orochimaru's accumulated ninjutsu, forbidden jutsu, secret techniques, research materials, and more.
This was the reason why he stayed for nearly half a year.
Orochimaru's vast accumulation was completely unprotected, allowing Dong Ping to acquire it all.
This was the real treasure!
After all, Orochimaru was a direct descendant of the Hokage, inheriting all the research achievements of the Hokage lineage.
Obtaining his accumulation was like devouring all of Konoha's accumulated knowledge.
If Dong Ping was previously stronger than Orochimaru in research due to the use of teleportation and clarity potions, now, even without those, he was undoubtedly stronger than Orochimaru.
Of course, during this time, he also outsourced some projects to Orochimaru.
He paid Orochimaru to research, and they reaped the benefits.
It was similar to what Danzo had Orochimaru do, except Orochimaru was more diligent with Dong Ping's projects and demanded slightly less money.
Even with a good relationship and deep friendship, Orochimaru wouldn't hold back when it came to funding, at most, he would just put in a little more effort.
However, with Orochimaru's help, Dong Ping's important research projects that he didn't have time for took off instantly.
For example, the power plant! Although the Shinobi World had power plants, they were inefficient, so Orochimaru directly developed a multi-functional power station.
Not only could it use chakra to convert into Lightning Style and generate electricity, but it could also use the 'Black Rod.'
Note that the Black Rod here refers to the condensation of negative emotions, a technique acquired from the Zero-Tails, and the Blazing Sun used the Black Rod.
This power plant had more applications and a higher conversion rate.
For this project, Dong Ping invested several hundred million Ryo before succeeding.
Only Orochimaru could do this; if it were anyone else, even with hundreds of millions of Ryo, they wouldn't be able to create it, let alone in such a short time.
Researching technology was infinitely more expensive than researching ninjutsu.
As for Orochimaru's research methods, they made Dong Ping's scalp tingle.
Shadow Clone Jutsu + 007!
Yes, you heard right, Orochimaru used Shadow Clones and worked almost 24 hours a day.
He was a born workaholic! CapitalistJoy.JPG!
No wonder he needed to change bodies periodically; with such a work ethic, even the best bodies couldn't withstand it.
If we're talking about work ethic, Orochimaru alone could rival ten Dong Pings.
He was incredibly hardworking!
Dong Ping himself wouldn't dare to work like this.
In addition to the power plant, Orochimaru also helped them conquer an even more important project.
This project also brought about a revolution in the Shinobi World.
Just as the emergence of the Flying Corps changed the future of warfare, the completion of this project would also revolutionize transportation.
Airship!
This was a project Dong Ping had wanted to research for a long time.
The problem was that he wasn't just a simple researcher, and with too many projects to undertake, he was naturally overwhelmed.
Now, with Orochimaru as his laborer, he could pay Orochimaru to work for him, and he wouldn't be stingy.
The Heavenly Fortress currently had no shortage of funds!
In truth, the technology required for airships was indeed minimal, and many had the capability to create them, with the main difference being the version and quality.
The key lies in creativity and gaseous materials!
For so long, the Ninja World had not developed such a thing, indicating they never considered researching it.
You should know that the Ninja World possesses flight tools and floating fortresses, but how can the technology of airships compare to these?
As a time-traveler, Creative Dong Ping naturally had no shortage of ideas, but he lacked the right gas to serve as the material for the airships' buoyancy.
It needed to have strong lift, be safe and reliable, and be producible in large quantities, but as he wasn't a chemistry expert, it was beyond his capabilities.
But Orochimaru could do it!
He was a master of all fields, after all, having acquired all the resources of Konoha, the strongest village in the Ninja World.
Once the gas issue was resolved, the remaining technical challenges for the airship were negligible.
Moreover, the materials in the Ninja World far surpassed those of the pre-crossing world, and the resulting version would undoubtedly be astonishing, given the existence of Chakra in this world.
Thus, the airship had overcome all obstacles and was ready to be unveiled.
As for the changes it would bring... well, what is the most common means of transportation in the Ninja World?
It's horse-drawn carriages!
Everyone knows how slow and limited in capacity they are.
The primary reason for the Ninja World's backwardness is undoubtedly the decadent nobility and transportation issues.
Some goods take over ten days, or even half a year or more, to transport; who can endure such delays?
Not to mention the low quantities, high costs, and significant risks involved.
However, with the advent of airships, the minimum transport capacity is several hundred to a thousand tons.
After all, the materials in the Ninja World are incredibly reliable, and when technology falls short, Ninjutsu can make up for it. This initial transport capacity is just the beginning; airships capable of carrying tens of thousands of tons are not out of the question.
With such massive transport capacity, coupled with the ability to ignore obstacles and the speed of flight, the transportation industry will undergo a revolutionary change.
A true world-changing innovation! With this technology, the development speed of the Skyguard Tower will undoubtedly soar.
After all, its production capabilities are off the charts, previously limited by transportation capabilities. Now, with airships, they can fully utilize their advantages.
Moreover, it's not just about researching the technology! A sleek airship hovers about a hundred meters above a lake, with a soft ladder hanging down from it.
"How is the prototype I created, Dong Ping?" Orochimaru's soft voice sounded from behind Dong Ping as he looked up at the airship.
He had come to see them off, though he didn't say it outright, Orochimaru undoubtedly viewed Dong Ping as his disciple.
Dong Ping had no objections to this, even though he was superior to Orochimaru in every way.
After all, Orochimaru was the 'Best Teacher in the Ninja World,' and being his disciple was no disgrace. Moreover, being his disciple had an additional benefit.
The Hokage Faction has a tradition of 'Teacher Slayer.'
In the original storyline:
The Third Hokage died at the hands of Orochimaru!
The Fourth Hokage died at the hands of the Byakugan Wolf!
Jiraiya died at the hands of Nagato!
Orochimaru died at the hands of Ergouzi!
...
These vivid examples demonstrate that in the Hokage Faction, disciples have an extra edge over their teachers.
With this advantage, Dong Ping didn't mind 'guest-starring' as Orochimaru's disciple.
After all, he had acquired all of Orochimaru's knowledge and techniques, gaining immense benefits.
"It's excellent!"
Dong Ping withdrew his gaze and replied, and the Heavenly Seal on Orochimaru's neck also disappeared at that moment.
It wasn't that the seal had become ineffective but because it had eroded Orochimaru's spirit or soul.
The seal would only appear when Orochimaru activated it.
"If there's anything you need my help with in the future, send someone to inform me, but don't expect the same bargain as this time!"
Orochimaru said coldly and then turned to enter the underground base.
It seemed as if he had come specifically to say those words rather than to see them off.
One could only say that his tsundere nature was his downfall.
During this time, they had agreed to only cooperate secretly, and neither would restrict the other.
"Let's go!"
Dong Ping, seeing Orochimaru's disappearing figure, then left with Hyuga Cangyue.
With the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan retrieved and Orochimaru under control, they could now return to the Skyguard Tower.
