Thanks to Chiya Otsutsuki's cells, Amado Sanzu was fully accepted by Mirai Uchiha.
Mirai Uchiha led him to Orochimaru's experimental base and said, "From now on, this will be your home. Serve me faithfully, and I can give you everything you desire."
Hearing Mirai's promise, Amado Sanzu nodded eagerly and replied, "Lord Emperor, I will not fail your expectations."
Mirai Uchiha merely shrugged noncommittently.
As long as someone had desires, he could manipulate them.
And if necessary, he could always use Kotoamatsukami for direct control.
Therefore, even though Amado Sanzu was a calculating individual, Mirai saw no need to be overly cautious.
Led by Mirai Uchiha, the two walked deeper into the lab complex.
All along the way, seeing various rare experimental materials and advanced devices, Amado Sanzu couldn't stop gaping.
Although Kara's experimental assets and instruments had already been top-notch in the ninja world, compared to this place, they were worlds apart.
Moreover, such an enormous research facility operated in perfect order, with everyone busily handling their assigned tasks, strictly following procedures.
Some equipment clearly showed signs of automated, large-scale production.
By contrast, all the rules he had enforced in Kara seemed like mere child's play.
Soon, they reached the central area of the entire laboratory complex.
Seeing Orochimaru already waiting in the main hall, Mirai gave a brief introduction.
"This is Amado Sanzu, the creator of the clone transformations within Kara."
Upon hearing this, Orochimaru's eyes lit up in curiosity.
"You created Bolo?"
Amado Sanzu nodded. "Yes, Lord Orochimaru."
Orochimaru smiled. "Then you'll work as my assistant from now on. Your technology interests me greatly."
After Bolo was defeated by Mirai Uchiha, he had been directly handed over to Orochimaru.
During this period, Orochimaru conducted thorough research into Bolo's body and abilities.
Even he had to admit that Amado Sanzu possessed many impressive techniques when it came to clone modifications.
"Oh right, Amado Sanzu," Mirai Uchiha asked. "Do you have Chiya Otsutsuki's cells with you?"
Immediately, Amado Sanzu nodded and pulled out a device from inside his robe.
After pressing a button, the device, originally only thumb-sized, expanded into a half-man-tall nutrient tank.
Inside the tank floated a pale piece of blood and flesh, submerged in liquid.
The piece of flesh continuously emitted astonishing energy, enough to make even Orochimaru feel uneasy.
"Mirai, who exactly is Chiya Otsutsuki?"
Seeing Orochimaru's confusion, Mirai Uchiha explained, "Chiya Otsutsuki is the legendary Otsutsuki God."
"A being that has long since transcended, whose true strength no one knows."
After hearing Mirai Uchiha's explanation, Orochimaru's pupils narrowed.
"A being like this—how did you obtain its flesh and tissue?"
Amado Sanzu replied solemnly, "Back then, when Isshiki Otsutsuki learned of my ability, he gave me a piece of flesh and told me to implant its cells into every member of the Inner Faction."
"Later I found out that this piece of flesh was actually from Chiya Otsutsuki himself."
"As for how Isshiki obtained it, that remains unknown to me."
After hearing Amado Sanzu's explanation, Orochimaru's eyes lit up. "Does Bolo have some too?"
Amado Sanzu nodded. "Yes, but not everyone who receives Chiya's cells will successfully awaken their power. Bolo is one such case."
"That's fine," Orochimaru said excitedly, sticking out his tongue to lick his lips.
As long as there were enough experimental subjects, success would eventually come.
The biggest challenge in cell transplantation was overcoming rejection.
And the stronger the cells, the harder they were to integrate.
Take Hashirama's cells, for example—they often ended up engulfing their hosts entirely.
It was likely even worse with Chiya's cells—which belonged to a divine Otsutsuki deity.
Yet now, judging by what Amado Sanzu had said, it seemed they had already solved this problem.
How could Orochimaru not be thrilled?
Right now, all he wanted was to implant some of Chiya's cells into his own body.
Amado Sanzu, ever perceptive, immediately offered, "From now on, it shall be up to you, Lord Orochimaru, to decide the distribution of Chiya Otsutsuki's cells."
Orochimaru nodded in satisfaction. "Good. You won't regret this."
Then he turned his gaze toward Mirai Uchiha.
"Oh, by the way, Mirai-kun."
"While I was studying Bolo's body, he revealed some more intelligence."
Mirai Uchiha raised an eyebrow. "What kind of information?"
Orochimaru spoke slowly, "It seems that during Jigen's leadership of Kara, he had once ordered him to destroy several clone transformations—but instead, he secretly hid them away."
"The place was apparently a lab complex in the Snow Country."
Upon hearing this, Amado Sanzu immediately responded, "Ah... Now I recall. That incident really did happen."
The two clones are named Ada and Dimeng. They both had Chiya Otsutsuki's cells transplanted into them, but for some unknown reason, Jigen ordered their destruction.
Who would've thought Bolo secretly hid them away.
Everyone present was smart enough to immediately catch onto a certain possibility.
When someone like Jigen personally orders the elimination of a clone, there's only one possible explanation—
These two clones had gained powers that even Jigen... no, even Isshiki Otsutsuki himself couldn't control!
Thinking about this, Mirai Uchiha smiled slightly and spoke up, "I'll go check out that base right now."
"Orochimaru, you should first show Amado around the area to familiarize him with the environment."
With that, his figure instantly vanished from the spot.
————
Snow Country.
Deep within the continuous mountain ranges covered in snow, it was not only nearly uninhabited, but even animals rarely appeared here.
Mirai Uchiha stood before a cliff face and threw a punch.
In the next second, the thick wall of ice shattered directly, countless boulders tumbling down the cliff.
The earth began shaking violently, as if collapsing from top to bottom, while the pure white snow surged downward like rolling waves across the ocean.
At this moment, nature revealed its terrifying claws; no matter how powerful any creature might be, it seemed insignificant before such immense force.
But Mirai Uchiha didn't care at all.
[Seal].
A single word left his lips, and a surging power instantly spread outward in all directions.
The falling snow froze midair, and the previously devastating scene of mountains crumbling instantly returned to calmness.
Mirai Uchiha strode into the cave, curiosity subtly rising in his heart.
What kind of power did these two clones possess that caused Isshiki Otsutsuki to decide upon their deaths?
