Mizuki was not very interested in Orochimaru's choice of path, and he did not have much desire for either immortality or the exploration of the unknown.

"This is not the place to talk, let's get out of here first!"

There were only three figures in the secret room, but suddenly Mizuki's physical clone, Shin, appeared. He grabbed Orochimaru's shoulder and performed the Flying Thunder God Technique. Shin and Orochimaru disappeared instantly, leaving only Mizuki's real body and the unconscious Mitarashi Anko. This carefree female ninja was probably a little confused about Mizuki's actions, but she didn't expect that Mizuki's target was not her at all.

Although Orochimaru has resurrected, Mizuki has important matters to deal with, but since Anko Mitarashi has become a tool used by Mizuki, her safety must naturally be guaranteed.

Although Orochimaru's resurrection has extracted the obsession in the Heaven's Curse Seal, it does not necessarily make the Heaven's Curse Seal disappear. Just like Uchiha Itachi's seal with the Ten-fist Sword, the Eight-Headed Sword, the revival of the mental obsession, and the removal of the curse have no causal relationship.

But the Heaven's Curse Seal on Uchiha Sasuke and Mitarashi Anko did disappear. The reason was actually very simple. Orochimaru took the initiative to withdraw it. Except for the creator of the curse seal, no one else could do anything about it. After the curse seal exploded, it squeezed the owner of the body to produce a large amount of curse seal chakra, which is a kind of fairy chakra.

Orochimaru, who had just been resurrected, was very weak and had to retain the necessary strength to protect himself. He had to draw the fairy chakra from the host's Heaven's Curse Seal to maintain his own strength.

And this is the real reason why the Heaven's Curse Seal disappeared. It is just like when some egg-laying creatures break out of their shells, they will use the eggshell as their first meal in the world and eat the most delicious food around them.

This instinct was prepared by Orochimaru when he set up the Heaven's Seal. The more talented the ninja, the stronger the power of the Heaven's Seal, and the safer Orochimaru will be when he is resurrected. This is a survival instinct that runs deep in the soul, and Orochimaru is no exception.

Now Mitarashi Anko has really gotten rid of the troubles of many years, and nothing Orochimaru does can affect her anymore.

After the curse seal exploded, the damage to the body was extremely serious. Mizuki stayed, not only to give Mitarashi Anko the necessary treatment, but also to give some instructions to Tsunade who was waiting. A powerful and especially senior ninja was handed over to Mizuki, and he couldn't just leave without saying a word.

…

When Mizuki pushed open the door of the secret room and handed the unconscious Mitarashi Anko to Tsunade, a look of suspicion never left Mizuki.

"What's taking so long? And Anko doesn't look well!"

"Don't worry, it's just that the overdraft is too severe. Just rest for a few days and it will be fine."

"I know!"

Tsunade still has this in her eyes.

"According to Hongdou's description, it shouldn't be that serious, so how did it become like this?"

Mizuki shrugged.

"A method that only treats the symptoms but not the root cause may have sequelae. It is better to solve the problem once and for all..."

"Once and for all?"

Tsunade was stunned, and then noticed that the Heaven's Curse Seal on Mitarashi Anko's neck had disappeared.

"How did you do it? If you had this ability, you wouldn't have to go through so much trouble to treat Uchiha Sasuke, and you wouldn't have to take risks, right?"

With Tsunade's attainments in medical ninjutsu, she certainly knew how dangerous something like the Heaven's Curse Seal, which penetrated deeply into the soul, was. If she wanted to separate it completely, she would have to tear apart a part of the soul. It would be fine if only the mind was damaged and the memory was slightly distorted, but the key was that this might involve risking one's life, and no one knew what kind of trouble tampering with the soul would cause.

"At that time, I wasn't that strong, and my research on the curse wasn't that thorough. The most important thing is..."

Mizuki grinned.

"At that time, Orochimaru was not dead!"

"The last one is the key, right?"

Mizuki did not deny it.

"It's always difficult to deal with things that have an owner."

Although the cause and effect relationship is nonsense, if Orochimaru had not died, the spiritual obsession in the Heaven's Curse Seal would be suppressed by the main body and there would be no way to actively remove it.

"All right!"

After a quick check on Mitarashi Anko's condition and finding nothing serious, Tsunade felt relieved.

"That's it. If there are any problems, I'll get back to you."

"Understood. I will follow your instructions."

Although Mizuki did not act fairly in this matter and took advantage of Mitarashi Anko, he also saved her from future troubles. Anyway, she didn't need the power of the Heaven's Curse Seal, so it was a good thing to get rid of it.

…

At the back mountain base, after Shuimu had dealt with all the troublesome matters, he came to this place which was no longer as valuable as before.

"You are finally here. Tell me, what do you need me to do?"

Orochimaru, who was visiting Mizuki's laboratory with great interest, couldn't wait any longer. In the past, it was always others who waited for him, so why should he wait for others? But he was at the mercy of others and had to endure some things.

"Don't worry. You don't seem too worried. Do you think I won't really kill you?"

Orochimaru replied indifferently:

"If someone else said this, I can only say that they think too highly of themselves. As for you...if you really wanted to kill me, you wouldn't even give me a chance to speak!"

Well, Mizuki admitted that this wise man who had lived for decades guessed correctly. As long as Orochimaru was still alive, no one knew what tricks he would have to turn the tables. It would be better to kill him with a thunderous blow.

"You have a point."

Mizuki turned around and took out a glass container. Inside the container was a pair of scarlet and strange eyeballs.

"Sharingan... No, Mangekyō Sharingan, it was the trophy of that guy Shimura Danzo, as expected..."

Orochimaru frowned when he realized his next fate, but soon felt relieved.

"Don't be a god, that's fine. If it weren't for this, you might kill me after using me. As long as I'm still alive, I have a chance to turn the tables."

"You are quite open-minded!"

Mizuki also thought this was fine.

If there is anyone in the ninja world who is not afraid of Kotoamatsukami, besides Mizuki, it is probably Orochimaru.

Shuimu has enough power to use powerful mental attacks to completely break the will of his original body that has been distorted by Kotoamatsukami. Even if he dies in the end, he can be resurrected by other methods. He will definitely not become Kotoamatsukami's puppet.

Orochimaru is actually in the same situation. Although his back-up plan is not as flawless as Mizuki's, he has a lot of spiritual obsessions. Sooner or later, he will use his existing will to resist the invasion of Kotoamatsukami. Then, in the continuous expansion of his ego, he will completely submerge the will imposed by Kotoamatsukami.

It’s just that Orochimaru’s methods are too passive, and there may not be any obvious effects within a few years.
