Chapter 618：

Kushina turned off the fire, and then touched Naruto's head.

"Okay, put the dishes on the table first, and I'll call your dad back right away."

Naruto chuckled: "Hehe, okay."

After Naruto helped Kushina put the food in place, Kushina picked up the phone hanging on the wall.

This was installed recently and can only be used for short distances.

"Naruto is back and the food is ready. Come back for dinner soon."

Minato's voice came from the other end of the phone: "I understand, I'll make arrangements."

Two minutes later, Minato used Flying Thunder God to fly behind Kushina.

"Dad!" Naruto hadn't seen Minato for a while.

He hugged Minato tightly.

Minato patted Naruto's head:

"You've been out for two months. What happened?"

Naruto scratched his head, lowered his head in embarrassment, and said in a low voice: "I...I have a girlfriend."

"What did you say!?"

Kushina threw away the spoon and pushed Minato aside, her eyes filled with stars.

"Tell mom, what kind of girl is she?"

Naruto was even more embarrassed:

"Uh...well...her name is Hinata, and she is my teammate."

At this time, Minato came over and said, "Hinata is a good child with a good personality."

Kushina pushed Minato open: "Go wash your hands quickly and let me talk to Naruto."

Minato had no choice but to wash his hands with a sneer on his face.

Kushina winked at Naruto and said, "Tell me, who confessed to you?"

The way Kushina's eyes were shining directly refreshed Naruto's impression of his mother.

"It's...it's me..."

Kushina slapped Naruto on the back:

"Okay, son! Bring her back to me sometime!"

"Let's eat first and talk while eating." Minato washed his hands.

Pulling Naruto and Kushina to the dining table.

Minato brought food to Naruto: "What did Natsuki teach you after two months of absence?"

"Master taught me a lot of principles..."

…

Chapter 694 Benign Atavism

Orochimaru Laboratory.

"Lord Natsuki."

Kimimaro struggled to get up, but was pushed down by Natsuki.

"Just lie down and rest, I won't disappear."

When Kimimaro saw Natsuki, his whole body relaxed.

"Lord Xia Mu, you are back."

Shiro held the food in his hand and placed it in front of Kimimaro.

I was also very happy to see Xia Mu come back.

Kimimaro didn't get up from lying down for so long. It wasn't because he was seriously ill again.

Rather, his body is returning to its ancestors in a benign manner.

It is extremely rare to return to one's ancestors the day after tomorrow. After all, Kimimaro is already 18 years old.

Logically speaking, this situation should not exist.

But Orochimaru said that compared to other blood inheritance limits, Kimimaro's corpse veins are extremely unstable.

There are two development directions for unstable blood vessels. One is malignant lesions and blood-related diseases.

The other is benign atavism.

In the past, Kimimaro's internal organs could not bear the increasing corrosive power of Kimimaro's blood.

But after Natsuki neutralized it with his own healing blood, although Kimimaro's blood was still highly toxic, his body was healing itself every moment.

Kimimaro's body was constantly being destroyed and repaired.

Under this situation, Kimimaro's body began to react strangely.

And because Natsuki faked his death, Kimimaro suffered a mental shock.

Kimimaro's eyes had mutated first, and after his eyes mutated, his body began to react accordingly.

Now Kimimaro's body is covered with testing equipment.

Just to see when Kimimaro's bloodline will stabilize.

Xia Mu touched Kimimaro's head and looked at him with a blank look, his temperament was much cooler than before.

Getting closer and closer to the Otsutsuki clan.

Kimimaro's condition is actually not bad, he just has some symptoms of fever and low-grade fever.

But there are too many testing devices plugged into my body.

That's why Bai Cai brought the food in.

"You guys should eat first. I'll ask Orochimaru how you are doing."

Natsuki comforted Kimimaro and found Orochimaru who was calculating data outside.

"Kimimaro, how long will it take for this to stop?"

Orochimaru shook his head: "It won't stop."

"What?" Xia Mu was stunned: "Isn't his inherited blood disease cured? Isn't he a benign atavism now?"

Orochimaru pointed to the data on the screen and said to Natsuki: "Strictly speaking, he is not sick."

"His blood disease was not considered a malignant disease before. He had negative symptoms because he was returning to his ancestors and his physical strength could not keep up."

"It's just that you gave him a blood transfusion last time, allowing the healing genes in his body to enter his body, and the damage caused by his blood to the body was temporarily suppressed."

"Remember, I said at that time that if he continues to do this, he will damage the origin of life."

"His life source is actually being consumed."

"For example, a normal person consumes one life source every day of his life, so his life source is three, and in battle, his life source is five to ten."

Natsuki frowned: "So, Kimimaro's life consumption is three times that of ordinary people?"

"A normal person can live a hundred years but he can only live thirty?"

Orochimaru confirmed Natsuki's statement:

"This is still under the condition that your healing gene is repaired."

"He is just too powerful to revert to his ancestors. Without the intervention of your genetic repair, it would have cost twice as much."

Natsuki calculated silently. No wonder Kimimaro died at the age of 15. It was really like this.

Orochimaru has been studying biological sciences over the years, and his understanding of these things has become deeper and deeper.

Orochimaru said with a burning light flashing in his eyes:

"It is not uncommon to regress, but this is the first time in my entire research career that I have seen his body's genes completely stable and constantly returning to his ancestors."

"This is a bad thing and a good thing."

"As long as you can provide stable energy, his body will continue to get stronger, and he can withstand stronger atavism."

"In fact, his end point may very well be the body of the Otsutsuki clan."

Xia Mu thought for a moment: "Can natural energy work?"

Orochimaru paused: "Theoretically it's possible, but you can't find such rich natural energy in ordinary places."

"It will take at least three holy places."

Xia Mu squinted his eyes and thought, the natural energy of the three holy places, after years of transformation, is only suitable for their corresponding immortal mode.

But besides the three holy places, there is another place that works.

"It's okay, I have a solution."

Orochimaru snorted, seemingly not surprised.

Natsuki shrugged: "How is the Sarutobi clan doing lately?"

"As you expected, those who deliberately spared Sarutobi Anbu are quite honest."

Orochimaru originally wanted to put all the Sarutobi clan members into prisons and then use them all as consumables for human experiments.

But Natsuki said that this would damage Orochimaru's reputation.

Although Orochimaru didn't care about reputation before, it's different now.

A Hokage with a good reputation and a Hokage with a bad reputation receive different resources.

For example, now, Orochimaru's gene cloning technology is becoming more and more perfect, and the price is gradually decreasing.

Now it has reached a level where even civilians can afford it, let alone ninjas.

Those who have lost their hands and feet, those who are blind, deaf and mute, those who are terminally ill.

And infertility, as long as it is an organ problem.

Orochimaru is simple and crude, just clone an organ and install it.

There is no rejection reaction for the clone itself, and the effect is simply unimaginable.

The Daimyo also reduced the share of "Chinese delicacies" to a minimum of 10%.

Who asked Orochimaru to replace it for him, two kidneys and one stomach?

For this kind of person who eats, drinks and has fun all day long, having a healthy stomach and healthy kidneys can greatly improve his quality of life.

For the daimyo, there is no end to the money, so naturally he will not compete with Orochimaru for profit.

In terms of reputation, Orochimaru is also famous far and wide, and people from many small and distant countries come here to treat their physical illnesses.

Konoha's hospital has been expanded twice, but it still cannot accommodate the continuous flow of people seeking medical treatment.

If Kakashi hadn’t brought Heather here, we would have had to wait in line for several months.

In this case, although Orochimaru doesn't care, if you dare to say a bad word about Orochimaru in Konoha, you will be drowned by spittle.

If Orochimaru wants any supplies or rare materials, naturally someone will try their best to get them just so he can join the queue.

Now the life of the Sarutobi clan is difficult, Natsuki has created a dire dilemma for them.

What kind of predicament is like the Uchiha clan's predicament back then.

Even worse than Uchiha. In the past, Uchiha was arrogant, but he had never done such insulting things as the Sarutobi clan.

Seize the pension and inheritance, use it to develop your own family, and take the lead in bullying the heroes.

In order to preserve his own power, he manipulated public opinion and killed the hero of the village...

There are so many that they are simply too numerous to mention.

The Sarutobi tribesmen who came back from outside were also extremely arrogant when they were powerful.

Now the wall is falling and everyone is pushing it. Just the name "Sarutobi" is already the biggest original sin.
