MTL - Naruto’s Strongest Force-Chapter 248
But Orochimaru just shook his head and said:
"Now Fugaku and Itachi still have to rely on me to clone their eyes. They can only beg me."
The Third Hokage felt a little helpless when he saw Orochimaru's lack of interest.
After Orochimaru deceived Uchiha, his hostility towards Uchiha was no longer deep.
After all, Uchiha suffered the loss of being dumb.
In terms of subsequent shares, Orochimaru can continue to cheat Uchiha.
Now Orochimaru is not short of funds and has a place.
He just stays in the laboratory every day, doing his experiments, and doesn't care about other things.
After Orochimaru returned, the Third Hokage also observed him for a long time.
The results of his observations made him happy and sad.
Happily, Orochimaru's intelligence and scheming abilities are obviously comparable to Natsuki's.
The sad thing is that Orochimaru is not interested in power at all.
I am more obsessed with experiments now than I was then.
In the past, they would still do tasks, and some people would spontaneously follow Orochimaru.
Orochimaru still has many followers behind him.
Orochimaru is no longer on a mission now.
There were only two or three kittens around, and except for one Konoe No. 1, there were only a few children.
So until now, the third generation has never asked Orochimaru whether he wants to be Hokage or anything like that.
But today, the Third Hokage suddenly figured it out.
Even if Orochimaru doesn't want to be Hokage, he can still push him out, as long as he holds the power in his hands.
Just like when we pushed out the fourth generation.
"Orochimaru, I want to pass the position of Hokage to you."
Sandai said in a deep voice.
Orochimaru was stunned: "Old man, did you take the wrong medicine?"
But the Third Hokage's face was serious and he didn't mean to joke at all.
Orochimaru slowly frowned, then snorted softly.
He said angrily: "Didn't you think Minato was better than me back then, and now you want me to be Hokage?"
The Third Hokage sighed inwardly, Orochimaru really regretted not supporting him back then.
Orochimaru is an extremely arrogant person. He may not want it, but you cannot deny it.
Orochimaru did not necessarily want the position of Hokage back then, but the Third Hokage's behavior at that time made Orochimaru very dissatisfied.
The third generation of Hokage has matured into a master, and there is no need to lose face at this time.
He said directly:
"I was wrong about what happened back then. Only now do I realize that you are the most suitable candidate to be Hokage."
Seeing Orochimaru's expression soften slightly, the Third Hokage added:
"You see, if you become Hokage, you can access all kinds of secret books and all kinds of precious experimental materials."
I saw Orochimaru showing a look of excitement.
The Third Hokage continued:
"How can you keep up with the progress of a team when you are doing experiments alone? As Hokage, you can set up an experimental team."
"When the time comes, if you need people and resources, whatever you want to study will be done very quickly."
Orochimaru was obviously moved, but after thinking for a moment, he gave up. He shook his head and said:
"Old man, what you said is very good, but I see you work in the Hokage's office all day long."
"If I become Hokage, I won't have time to do experiments."
The third generation hoped that Orochimaru was not interested in these things, so he quickly said:
"This matter is simple. I will help you handle these official duties first."
"Except for the more important communication with you, at other times you can do your experiments with peace of mind and no one will disturb you."
"When you want to take over later, I'll leave it to you."
When Orochimaru heard this, he seemed to think it was pretty good:
"Okay, old man. I don't care about voting. Just go and do it."
Seeing that Orochimaru agreed, the Third Hokage also breathed a sigh of relief.
Orochimaru asked: "How are you going to deal with Uchiha?"
Since the Third Hokage insisted on letting him become Hokage, there must be some aspect of him that could cope with Uchiha's money-throwing tactics.
The Third Hokage asked: "How effective is your cloning technology on limb cloning?"
Orochimaru chuckled: "Old man, cloning limbs is a very simple matter, but there is a chance of failure."
"The cost of stimulating organs is quite high, and it is not something that ordinary ninjas can afford."
The third generation relaxed and said with a smile: "It is much lower than the training cost of those elites."
"It would also be nice if you could find me more materials for living experiments."
Orochimaru stuck out his tongue and turned it around.
The Third Hokage said: "Most of the people who withdraw from combat in Konoha every year are disabled."
"If your cloning technology can be improved, it can increase Konoha's combat power a lot."
"Old man, please think carefully. If the cloning technology is exposed, other ninja villages may covet you."
After all, being able to restore broken limbs can directly save many disabled ninjas.
In every ninja village, a lot of people are disabled for missions every year.
The Third Hokage was satisfied that Orochimaru was still thinking about the village.
He nodded with relief: "This is the only way now. As long as the threshold is high enough, other ninja villages will not covet you."
Orochimaru nodded when he heard this: "Okay, you can arrange it. I've been busy cloning Fugaku and Itachi's eyes recently."

Chapter 300 Payne Arrives
Konoha Village
As long as Natsuki named him at the Konoha meeting.
All went to the Uchiha clan on the same day.
And, all received money.
No one expected that Xia Mu would act so roughly.
The money is really sent directly.
Box after box of money was taken out of the Uchiha's hand.
The representatives of all races gave Uchiha a thumbs up in their hearts.
Look at Uchiha, this is the solution to practical difficulties.
Much better than some people who only shout slogans.
If such an Uchiha wanted to run for Hokage, everyone would support it.
There is an undercurrent surging in the village now.
Everyone wanted to see how the Third Hokage responded.
After all, the Third Hokage never had the idea of giving the position of Hokage to Uchiha.
But no one expected that the Third Hokage actually pushed Orochimaru out.
…
There was another update on Konoha's bulletin board today.
To put it simply, Orochimaru has made a major breakthrough in scientific research technology and can clone and treat physical disabilities.
Ninjas who have withdrawn from combat due to disability in the past have the opportunity to reshape their severed limbs and become people with sound limbs again.
As soon as the news came out, the whole of Konoha was boiling.
As one of the five major ninja villages, Konoha has been fighting for years, and countless ninjas have withdrawn from combat due to disabilities.
In this world, most ninjas are not engaged in production.
It takes a lot of tasks to support a family.
Doing tasks naturally has its corresponding risks.
Once a ninja is disabled, he basically bids farewell to this profession.
I can only live as an ordinary person.
Of course, life will also become a lot harder.
One can imagine how much Orochimaru's reputation increased after the Hokage released this news.
Although the cost of cloning is high now, the announcement said that with the development of technology.
This cost will gradually decrease, and in a few years, civilians will also be able to use this technology.
Everyone wanted to go to Orochimaru and ask about cloning.
But the Third Generation knew Orochimaru's temper.
So Orochimaru's new laboratories were all set underground for Orochimaru.
There were very few people who knew about it, and no one would bother Orochimaru.
Therefore, anyone in need came to the Third Hokage.
For ordinary people, the price of repairing a broken limb is unaffordable.
For the great ninja clan, as long as they pay enough, it is not impossible to have Orochimaru clone them.
It is easier for the great ninja clan to produce excellent ninjas. In this case, it is inevitable that there will be disabilities.
Many of them are the elite among the elite, and many have withdrawn from combat due to disabilities.
If such an elite can save one, it will be a significant increase in the family's strength.
Therefore, many ninjas are secretly thinking about what should be traded to the Third Hokage at the next Konoha meeting.
Let Orochimaru treat their people.
Many civilians only noticed the news about Orochimaru above, and some people also noticed what was said below.
Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Itachi's eyes were injured.
The Third Hokage has asked Orochimaru to start treating his clone.
"Is this Uchiha going to make peace with the Third Hokage?"
"I don't know. Isn't Tsunade-sama with the Uchiha? Why can't he cure the eyes of Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Itachi?"
"Does this mean Orochimaru-sama is more powerful than Tsunade-sama?"
"impossible."
"It's possible that there is a specialization in the art."
"Tsunade-sama's medical ability is definitely stronger than Orochimaru's, but Orochimaru is a clone that replicates his body."
"Yes, I heard that Kakashi's eyes were also cured..."
