Virtual World.
Inside the Eternal Life Guild.
Naruto looked at Orochimaru and asked, "Orochimaru-senpai, do you know what cloning is?"
"Cloning?" Hearing the new term 'cloning', Orochimaru was still a bit puzzled.
Seeing Orochimaru's puzzled expression, Naruto knew that he had not yet mastered the core technology of cloning.
It's not that he hadn't mastered the core technology, but rather Orochimaru didn't even realize his own techniques were essentially cloning.
For example, helping Danzo get a Hashirama arm was an arm cloned from Hashirama Cells.
And this technique, Uchiha Madara also possessed.
But all of this was based on Hashirama Cells, or rather, White Zetsu.
Cloning an identical person from an ordinary person's cells, Orochimaru currently did not have such a technique.
"Cloning means I use your technique to create another you. Then, you can use Living Corpse Reincarnation on that cloned you. You should experience no rejection reaction when you reincarnate into the clone!"
Naruto's words made Orochimaru fall into deep thought.
Orochimaru's Living Corpse Reincarnation steps were very simple: find a vessel, then give the vessel a Snake Kiss Cursed Seal, and finally perform the reincarnation.
The most crucial step was actually the Cursed Seal, which was a preparation made in advance to avoid rejection reactions.
If he were to reincarnate into himself, he wouldn't even need the Cursed Seal step.
Orochimaru, having understood everything, licked his face with his tongue, then asked with some excitement, "If that's the case... is it possible to add some Bloodline Limits during cloning?"
"You truly live up to your reputation as the Ninja World's top scientist! Indeed, you can add Bloodline Limits!"
Hearing that Bloodline Limits could be added, Orochimaru became even more excited, but upon hearing Naruto's next words, he fell silent again.
"Hehe... don't get too happy too soon. We've only just started cooperating, and Mr. Orochimaru, you are a very dangerous person!"
Naruto's words were very clear; they meant, 'I have the technology, but I just won't use it yet!'
Orochimaru could only helplessly spread his hands and say, "It seems we need to cooperate more so that you and your Fourth Hokage behind you can trust me..."
"Mm!" Naruto nodded, "So... Mr. Orochimaru, I hope we never have a breakdown in negotiations!"
"Of course! Now that the body issue is solved, what about my Living Corpse Reincarnation problem?"
"Actually, I planned to conduct experiments in this amazing virtual world, but as you know, skill points, besides getting some from leveling up, can only be obtained from field bosses or ruin bosses!"
After speaking, Orochimaru looked at Naruto.
Since the virtual world was created by Naruto, Orochimaru was sure that Naruto could definitely solve this problem!
"Hahahaha, don't worry, I'll give you some skill points."
As he spoke, Naruto waved his right hand, and the administrator's operation interface appeared. Then, he directly modified Orochimaru's data.
"Alright... that should be enough, right!"
Orochimaru heard this, checked his data panel, and found that his current skill points were as high as 9999.
9999 was already the maximum limit for skill points.
"Okay, I'll experiment with Living Corpse Reincarnation as soon as possible."
After speaking, Orochimaru impatiently found a subordinate and began to experiment with Living Corpse Reincarnation.
It was still the old routine; he first learned the Cursed Seal with skill points.
Although the Cursed Seal was a research product, in the virtual world, it could be fully manifested as a Ninjutsu.
Naruto watched with interest from the side and had no intention of leaving immediately.
Orochimaru brought over two vessels he had previously set his sights on: a woman in a kimono and... young Kimimaro.
"Alright, Xiaoling, Kimimaro, next I will choose one of you two as a vessel."
"Naturally... because this is the virtual world, it's just an experiment. Who among you wants to experience it?"
Hearing Orochimaru's words, the woman named Xiaoling and Kimimaro stepped forward simultaneously.
"I volunteer!"
"I volunteer!"
Naruto, witnessing this, secretly thought, "Orochimaru truly lives up to his reputation as the Ninja World's MLM leader... his brainwashing ability is definitely a true inheritance from the Third Hokage!"
Naruto recognized Kimimaro. As for the one named Xiaoling, if he wasn't mistaken... she should be Orochimaru's first vessel in the original story.
He hadn't expected this girl to also be a volunteer.
At the same time, Xiaoling and Kimimaro also began to argue.
"Kimimaro, ladies first!"
"No."
"Kimimaro, I'll treat you to something delicious."
"No."
"Kimimaro..."
Before Xiaoling could continue speaking, Kimimaro's single sentence directly silenced her.
"My body isn't good; I'm destined not to become Lord Orochimaru's vessel. So... give this experience opportunity to me, Xiaoling."
"Oh, alright!"
Hearing Kimimaro's words, Xiaoling had no choice but to give up!
Seeing that the two had made their decision, Orochimaru directly stretched his neck and gave Kimimaro a Snake Kiss.
This time, he gave Kimimaro not the Earth Cursed Seal, but the Heaven Cursed Seal, just like Sasuke.
Because it was the Heaven Cursed Seal reset by Orochimaru, it could be said to have no side effects at all.
After a wave of Snake Kiss, Kimimaro felt nothing, just a little blush.
Perhaps from embarrassment...
"Alright, Xiaoling, help pry open Kimimaro's mouth and don't let him move!"
Xiaoling immediately complied, and Kimimaro also cooperated by opening his mouth as wide as possible.
After getting ready, Orochimaru directly activated Living Corpse Reincarnation, breaking free from his original body, and his core directly drilled into Kimimaro's mouth.
Immediately, Kimimaro began to struggle wildly on the ground. In a short while, Kimimaro's face transformed into Orochimaru's.
And the player Kimimaro was also declared dead. Soon after, he reconnected, only his level had dropped by one.
Naruto came over to Orochimaru, who had successfully taken over, and asked, "How do you feel?"
Orochimaru heard this, smiled, and said, "No problem, it was very successful!"
Just as Orochimaru finished speaking, his expression changed, and he said, "Let's continue talking later, I have some things to deal with outside!"
With that, Orochimaru logged off without another word.
Seeing this, Naruto could only log off as well!
On the other side.
In the Land of Rice Fields' base.
Orochimaru took off his virtual helmet, then looked at the ring that was sending out mental fluctuations and thought, "Did something happen with Akatsuki?"
