Chapter 37: I've invested in this project; the Pure Land Stealing Plan begins.
Danzo Shimura took a disposable Wood Release test subject to test it.
He wasn't stupid; he wouldn't just believe whatever Aburame Shizuka and Orochimaru said. Of course, he had to witness it for himself first.
If he is satisfied with the strength of the one-time Wood Release test subject, he will continue to invest resources in it.
If that doesn't work, then we should stick to the original approach and continue the research.
Orochimaru watched Shimura Danzo leave quickly without saying anything, but instead looked at Aburame Shiitsu with interest, licked his lips, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Zhiyi-kun, your idea is good, but the road to immortality is always fraught with difficulties. If you encounter any problems, you can come to me and we can discuss them."
Orochimaru was eager to see what kind of flower Shizuki Aburame would bloom from this rough gem, and what kind of surprises he would bring him.
Orochimaru admires Shiatsu Aburame, even though Shiatsu's idea of immortality seems naive to him.
"That's wonderful. If I have any questions in the future, I hope Lord Orochimaru will be kind enough to guide me."
Aburame Shiki achieved his goal, and his meeting with Orochimaru went smoothly.
In the future, I can have more exchanges with Orochimaru. Shiitsu Aburame is also very interested in the Reanimation Jutsu and the Eight-Tails' horns that Orochimaru possesses.
Although Orochimaru has begun to pursue immortality, he has not yet made up his mind to sever all ties.
All security measures are still in place.
Aburame Shiki exchanged a few pleasantries with Orochimaru before commencing a new experiment.
Orochimaru is also very busy. Next, he needs to conduct Sharingan transplant experiments, which Danzo has been demanding.
Aburame Shiki wasn't dissatisfied either, as he could learn a lot from doing experiments with Orochimaru.
After the experiment came to an end, Shiki Aburame returned to the laboratory at the root to prepare for his plan to steal the Pure Land.
Aburame Shiichi has filled his laboratory at the root with dead parasites, claiming that he is cultivating powerful insects.
It's very dangerous, don't go in unless you have to.
Aburame Shiki brought the sacrificial offerings he found for the Impure World Reincarnation to the laboratory.
The plan to steal a home from the Pure Land has officially begun.
Although the Sage of Six Paths controls the Pure Land, he may not always be paying attention to it.
After all, the appearance of the Gedo Mazo in the ninja world was caused by the reincarnation of his own son, so it was impossible for him not to pay attention.
The Sage of Six Paths is no longer focused on the Pure Land, so Shiatsu Aburame has a great chance.
As for whether the Sage of Six Paths will discover the absorption of the Pure Land's soul energy.
No, the numerous souls in the Pure Land are absorbing soul energy, and the number of souls is still increasing. Adding one more Yu Nu Zhiyi won't cause any ripples.
Even if we get caught, we can always beg the Sage of Six Paths, and maybe he'll kindly let us go.
Of course, Shiichi Aburame wouldn't place his hopes on the Sage of Six Paths' kindness.
What truly gave Aburame Shiki confidence was the ability of the Primal Gu to be assimilated.
Even if it's discovered, it's because the parasitized soul is the problem. At worst, Shiichi Aburame can let the parasitic worm spirit, along with the ninja's soul, self-destruct, transforming into pure soul energy to eliminate the evidence.
If the Sage of Rokudos hadn't discovered what Shiki Aburame was doing at the beginning, Shiki would have grown rapidly.
By the time the Sage of Six Paths discovers this, it will have already meant that Shiki Aburame has reached a very high level of development, and the soul energy he needs has already attracted the attention of the Sage of Six Paths.
When Aburame Shiki absorbs a large amount of soul energy and is able to use more of the Primal Gu's authority...
Aburame Shiichi would be very difficult to kill.
Every being assimilated by the Primal Gu is a part of the Primal Gu, and is an Aburame Shiki.
If Shiki Aburame releases the assimilated beings throughout the entire ninja world, he will be difficult to kill unless the world is destroyed.
"Pure Land"
"Aburame Shizuka murmured in the darkness of the Root Base laboratory."
In the early stages, the main focus should be on concealment; there's no need to absorb too much soul energy.
Then the parasitic worms continue to spread throughout the Pure Land.
The Pure Land has accumulated pure soul energy over thousands of years, which Aburame Shiki greatly covets.
The soul energy that Aburame Shiki needed to become a god was provided by the Pure Land.
Ever since Aburame Shiichi conceived of the Pure Land theft plan, he has continuously improved it.
Aburame Shiki invested a great deal of energy and resources into this project.
He went to great lengths to demonstrate his value, and even his apprenticeship to Danzo Shimura was all for the purpose of serving this project.
I've invested in this project!
All in!
Going all in is a sign of wisdom!
In fact, Shiki Aburame was also very interested in the Yang and Yin powers in the hands of the Sage of Six Paths, but unfortunately he couldn't figure it out.
This was prepared by the Sage of Six Paths for the reincarnation of his two sons.
"Impure World Reincarnation".
Aburame Shiki offered a sacrifice and used the Impure World Reincarnation technique.
A coffin slowly rose, and Aburame Shiki was reborn as a Konoha Root Jonin.
"What's going on? Wasn't I dead?"
Aburame Shiki didn't bother explaining to him and directly used a technique to control the soul of the Konoha Root Jonin, causing his soul to immediately sink into silence.
"It's up to you now, Soul-Parasite."
Aburame Shiki released the parasitic insects, allowing their spirits to come into contact with the soul of this Konoha Root Jonin.
The spirit of the parasitic insect came into contact with the soul of the Root ninja resurrected through Impure World Reincarnation, causing a wave of rejection.
Rejection of the soul is more dangerous and mysterious than rejection of the body.
Aburame Shiki wasn't surprised; it's normal for a soul to reject something. If it doesn't reject it, that would be a big problem, unless it's a single soul.
Aburame Shiki silently adjusted the spirit of the parasitic worm.
He continuously tried to make the spirit of the parasitic insects merge with the souls of the Root ninjas as closely as possible.
This is where the Primal Gu comes in again. The Primal Gu has a powerful assimilation ability. In the past, it helped Aburame Shiitsu assimilate many insects, causing his strength to rise dramatically. This made Aburame Shiitsu's reputation as a genius attract Shimura Danzo.
However, the original Gu has a strong ability to be assimilated, and can resolve the rejection reaction by becoming part of other beings through assimilation.
We didn't use it before because we didn't need it, but now that we need to lie dormant in the Pure Land and be assimilated, that's very important.
Aburame Shiki waited silently, but his hands never stopped moving. The repulsion of the soul of the Root Jonin resurrected by Edo Tensei against the parasitic insects was getting weaker and weaker.
The spirit of the parasitic insect became part of the soul of the Root Jonin resurrected through the power of assimilation.
"Very good, the plan is a success. The parasitic worms have not disappointed me. Everything is ready."
Aburame Shiki couldn't help but grin, licking his lips to calm his excited heart and trembling hands.
"Next, we will send the reincarnated ninjas back to the Pure Land."
"Impure World Reincarnation - Release"
Aburame Shiatsu released the Impure World Reincarnation technique, and the souls of the Konoha Root ninjas returned to the Pure Land as if nothing had happened.
But no one knew that the soul of a Konoha Root ninja brought a stowaway.
