The tense, life-or-death atmosphere that had been on the verge of erupting had suddenly transford into such a bizarre scene?
Orochimaru, who just monts ago had been manipulating everyone to attack Hashirama Senju with full force, had now so readily agreed to beco Roy's subordinate. This complete one-hundred-eighty-degree reversal in attitude was truly hard for the others to accept.
The two Kazekages looked utterly bewildered, having no idea what was happening.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression was extrely complicated, a mixture of helplessness, disappointnt, and a hint of indescribable inner conflict written across his face.
The bond of their forr teacher-student relationship made it difficult for him to completely harden his heart against Orochimaru.
Orochimaru, at this mont, had fallen into a state of near madness.
He was constantly circling around Roy, frantically asking him about everything concerning the other world, occasionally letting out eerie laughter from his mouth.
"How interesting. This is truly fascinating."
"So their technology has already reached that level, has it?"
"Hmm, as I thought, electrical energy has great promise."
...
Half a day passed. Orochimaru now wore a satisfied and excited expression on his face, a fervent light gleaming in his eyes.
He tilted his head back slightly and let out a long, thoughtful sigh. "The ability to traverse worlds? How formidable, Roy-kun!"
During this half day, so changes had also occurred in the situation.
By now, the two Kazekages had already been released from their summoning.
And with Roy's consent, Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju had been temporarily allowed to remain.
Just a mont ago, Tobirama Senju had clearly stated that he could serve Roy alongside the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, in their reincarnated forms.
This decision was not a montary impulse on Tobirama's part, but the result of careful consideration.
Since Roy was so powerful and aid to establish a grand organization composed of powerful individuals from various worlds, it would naturally be better for Konoha, and indeed the entire ninja world, to have as many strong individuals as possible holding positions within this organization.
This would not only elevate the ninja world's status and influence within this new organization but could also bring new opportunities for developnt to the ninja world.
Naturally, Roy would not refuse Tobirama's proposal.
After all, powerful individuals like Tobirama Senju and the Third Hokage were undoubtedly a trendous source of support.
Just then, Orochimaru suddenly licked his lips and asked, "So you're saying Uchiha Madara was alive until recently and had awakened the Rinnegan?"
There was a hint of urgency in his voice, as if he were verifying a hypothesis he had long held in his mind.
Sure enough, upon receiving an affirmative answer, his conviction beca absolute.
The discovery that the ultimate evolution of the Sharingan could lead to the Rinnegan only deepened his interest in researching the Sharingan.
But upon hearing Orochimaru's words, Tobirama Senju's brow furrowed involuntarily.
He turned to look at Hashirama Senju and said gravely, "Big brother, then we need to stop them quickly."
In his mind, Uchiha Madara's power and danger went without saying; a Madara who had awakened the Rinnegan posed an imnse threat to the entire ninja world.
However, Hashirama Senju just laughed heartily, a look of magnanimity on his face. He patted Tobirama Senju's shoulder and said:
"Hahaha, Tobirama, when it cos to things like this, we dead people shouldn't interfere too much. Let the younger fellows handle it themselves."
He had faith in the younger generation, believing they had the ability to et these challenges.
"Unless it cos down to the very end, we should not make a move," he added.
Tobirama Senju sighed softly, a helpless expression on his face.
While his elder brother Hashirama's magnanimous attitude was sowhat frustrating, there was reason to his thinking.
Now that they were reincarnated in their impure forms, ddling excessively in the affairs of the living world might not be the best course of action.
He frowned slightly, a glint of worry in his eyes, inwardly contemplating the state of the ninja world, but could only suppress his concerns for the ti being.
Just then, Roy's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had rembered sothing important.
He tilted his head slightly, his gaze falling on Orochimaru, and asked, "By the way, Orochimaru, have you ever heard of an organization called Kara, or a man nad Sanzu Amado?"
Orochimaru was slightly taken aback, a confused look on his face. He narrowed his eyes, thinking.
"Kara? Sanzu Amado?" he muttered to himself, trying to search his vast mory bank for relevant information.
After a mont, Orochimaru frowned slightly, sinking deeper into recollection.
His brain worked rapidly, sorting through various fragnts of intelligence he had gathered over ti.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up.
"I think I've heard of it in the Land of Valleys," Orochimaru slowly spoke, a hint of uncertainty in his voice. "It's a multinational dical equipnt company, said to have business dealings all over the ninja world."
He paused briefly, licked his lips, and continued, "I recall that within that company, there seems to be a researcher nad Amado. However, I didn't pay much attention to it at the ti."
Orochimaru's expression grew serious; he lifted his head slightly, eting Roy's gaze, curiosity showing in his eyes.
"As for the organization itself, I've never heard of it."
"What does Roy-kun want with this? Is there sothing special about this Kara organization and this Amado?" A hint of curiosity laced Orochimaru's voice.
Roy narrowed his eyes slightly, a faint, barely perceptible gleam flashing within them.
He didn't answer Orochimaru's question imdiately but fell into a brief silence.
"Never heard of the Kara organization? But Amado certainly exists," Roy murmured softly.
Inside, his mind was a storm, but outwardly he remained calm.
He had always harbored doubts about whether elents from Boruto would appear in this ninja world, especially since, in his understanding, many aspects of Boruto's plot were hard to swallow.
Sasuke's and Naruto's combat prowess had plumted crazily; two legendary figures who once dominated the ninja world had beco utterly incompetent in Boruto.
Moreover, far too many Ōtsutsuki had appeared.
But now, learning from Orochimaru's mouth that Amado indeed existed in this world caused Roy's heart to tighten.
It made him realize that the world of Boruto might very well beco a reality.
"At that rate, Isshiki Ōtsutsuki likely exists too? And what about the Ōtsutsuki God?"
His thoughts raced, various ideas flashing through his mind.
"And what about Kaguya's companion? He seems to have devoured countless Chakra Fruits, apparently evolving into a god."
"Having now abandoned his body and left his original dinsion? Could such a terrifying being truly exist?"
