Naruto, I will reveal the truth Chapter 137

Tail-beast Jinchuriki can borrow the power of the Tailed Beasts, which is a recognized fact.

Orochimaru himself had witnessed Han of Iwagakure using Boil Release, and Roshi using Lava Release.

Become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, and thereby control the seven chakra natures, synthesizing Truth-Seeking Orbs. Then inject one’s will into the chakra to achieve eternal life!

It sounds reasonable!

Unlike Orochimaru’s own blind research, this is an extremely clear path to eternal life.

The only problem is…

“Why are you telling me this?”

Orochimaru is not stupid, he knows that this Black Zetsu in front of him must have ulterior motives!

The so-called Ten-Tails Jinchuriki must have some unknown danger, otherwise, Orochimaru would not believe that Black Zetsu would simply give him such a good thing for free!

Orochimaru thought of the Ninja World Peace and Moon’s Eye Plan that Black Zetsu had just mentioned to Obito!

“This is where I need to cooperate with you. I will help you collect the Tailed Beasts to synthesize the Ten-Tails, and you will help me rescue someone!”

Black Zetsu spoke very sincerely, but Orochimaru would not easily fall for it: “Why don’t you become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki yourself? Don’t you want the power of eternal life?”

“Eternal life is useless to me. I am already over a thousand years old; I have already achieved eternal life!”

Black Zetsu’s words made Orochimaru’s eyes narrow, and his tongue unconsciously licked his chin.

An old monster over a thousand years old, no wonder he knows so many secrets!

Orochimaru thought of the Great Snake Sage of Ryuchi Cave and the Great Toad Sage of Mount Myoboku, both old monsters over a thousand years old.

Then…

Not even caring about becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, how strong must Black Zetsu be, and what is the matter that needs help?

Moreover, there’s a loophole in that statement. If eternal life is not needed, is powerful strength not needed either?

Things seem to be getting interesting…

“What is the Moon’s Eye Plan, and what does Ninja World Peace refer to?”

Gossiping is everyone’s nature!

It was rare for Orochimaru to encounter a living encyclopedia that had lived for thousands of years, and this encyclopedia also had ulterior motives for him. Orochimaru felt that if he didn’t ask everything he didn’t know, he would be letting his own brain down!

“Obito hates war because of Rin’s death, so he hopes to gain powerful strength to achieve Ninja World Peace.

The Moon’s Eye Plan is a large-scale genjutsu that pulls everyone into the ultimate battlefield, aiming to make everyone see the consequences of war, thereby achieving the goal of peace!”

Seeing Orochimaru’s relentless questioning, Black Zetsu simply dumped everything onto Obito. Anyway, Obito was already dead; could he still come back to explain things clearly to Orochimaru?

After speaking, Black Zetsu looked at Orochimaru: “How about it, do you want to continue cooperating?”

“I have one more question!”

“You said you’ve achieved eternal life, but I don’t sense the seven chakra natures in you. How did you do it?”

Orochimaru’s tongue licked his chin. An example of eternal life was right before his eyes; how could Orochimaru not be curious?

Although the Sages of the three great holy lands could live long lives, that was not eternal life. Orochimaru knew that the Great Toad Sage of Mount Myoboku was already very old, and the Great Snake Sage was also an old man.

So far, the only true eternal life Orochimaru knew of were the Tailed Beasts and the Black Zetsu in front of him, whose authenticity was unknown!

“I was created by someone, and achieved eternal life using only Yin and Yang Release. Now, lacking the balance of other chakra natures, I have been completely corroded by chakra.”

As he spoke, Black Zetsu cut his arm with a blade, and it was pitch black inside; no blood flowed out at all!

“As you can see, I am no longer considered human, so I cannot be a Tailed Beast Jinchuriki!”

“Achieved eternal life with just Yin and Yang Release?”

Orochimaru looked curiously at Black Zetsu in front of him, never expecting that this thing that didn’t look human was indeed not human!

“Yes, in fact, mastering any kind of chakra and injecting your will into it can achieve eternal life, but a single nature cannot achieve internal balance. You will slowly be corroded by chakra, just like I am now!”

Black Zetsu fabricated a reason for his appearance on the spot, which sounded very convincing, all to lead Orochimaru towards the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki!

Before synthesizing the Ten-Tails, Orochimaru would be a good chess piece, provided Orochimaru agreed to cooperate!

“Last question, who do you want me to help you save?”

Orochimaru wouldn’t foolishly act as someone’s thug. The person this thousand-year-old monster wanted to save must be a formidable character.

He wouldn’t directly get involved before judging the dangers. Did they really think he, Orochimaru, would disregard everything for eternal life?

“The person I want to save is the one who created me, Otsutsuki Hamura!

He is currently trapped on the moon, and his clan members are guarding him there. I need you to come with me to the moon to rescue Otsutsuki Hamura after you become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki!”

The hardest lies to expose are half-truths. In fact, Black Zetsu only needed Orochimaru’s cooperation to weaken the power of a few ninja villages. As long as the nine Tailed Beasts were captured, the rest had nothing to do with Orochimaru.

“There are still people on the moon?”

“Of course, the Byakugan of Konoha is a branch that came from the moon!”

“Who is Otsutsuki Hamura, and why is he trapped?”

“Otsutsuki Hamura is a descendant of the Sage of Six Paths, and is currently attacked and sealed by his descendants.”

To hide his mother’s information, Black Zetsu just spouted nonsense with his eyes closed. Anyway, Orochimaru didn’t know if it was true or false, and had nowhere to verify it.

“Does the legendary Sage of Six Paths really exist?”

“Of course it’s true. The current ninjutsu system in the ninja world was pioneered by the Sage of Six Paths. Unfortunately, the Sage of Six Paths disappeared thousands of years ago, and no one knows where he is.”

Orochimaru was skeptical of Black Zetsu’s words. Anyone who suddenly has a stranger appear and immediately propose cooperation wouldn’t easily believe them.

He, Orochimaru, was a notorious human trafficker in the ninja world. He was always the one to lure others, when was it his turn to be lured by someone else?

However, based on what Black Zetsu had said so far, a lot of it should be true. Regardless of the future cooperation, for now, Orochimaru was satisfying his thirst for knowledge.

Orochimaru hadn’t expected that the Hyuga’s Byakugan had such a significant origin.

It seemed he needed to find some time to collect some Byakugan and re-research them. Just a mere Caged Bird seal, with a little more time, Orochimaru didn’t believe he couldn’t crack it!

As for the Black Zetsu in front of him, Orochimaru thought for a moment and decided it was necessary to establish a good relationship first. Perhaps Black Zetsu could be useful in the future.

The Ten-Tails Jinchuriki must have some unknown dangers, but the Tailed Beasts were definitely worth capturing and researching!

Thinking this, Orochimaru looked at Black Zetsu:

“Pleasure working with you, what should I do!”
