Behind the Scenes in Naruto World-Chapter 623 - Hueco Mundo and Soul Society Trend, Hueco Mundo's Mentor Orochimaru Debut!
Hueco Mundo.
Forest of Menos.
A dark underground cave.
A group of Arrancar passed through the dark corridor of the cave. The damp corridor was crawling with little snakes, which made people feel a little worried.
When these little snakes saw their figure, they did not panic. They hissed and stood up to look at them because they were Orochimaru’s eyes.
When Nelliel led Ulquiorra and the others into a cave with a large snake mouth, they entered the base that Orochimaru had hidden in Hueco Mundo for thousands of years.
It seemed that the base was not particularly big.
However, it was a completely different world. Orochimaru had enslaved tens of thousands of Gillian-level Menos. After thousands of years of modification, the entire base had almost covered the entire underground of Forest of Menos.
However, most of the land in the base was full of White Zetsu… as well as a large number of Gillian-level Menos, who were used as experimental materials and guard members.
Of course…
There were also hundreds of Arrancar.
These were all Orochimaru’s experimental subjects and his direct subordinates.
Thousands of years ago, after Orochimaru was brought to this world by Uehara and became a stepping stone tool for the rise of the Uehara clan, he was thrown here to conduct an experiment.
To be honest…
This kind of thing was not unacceptable.
As a person who had stepped into the peak, Orochimaru had already experienced the power of a god, even if he was controlled to become a tool for others.
As a person who had fallen into a valley, Orochimaru had also experienced the feeling of remnant souls in the Human World. Of course, even if he had fallen to such a level, that guy Uehara did not let go of using him. He was really not a human at all…
However, this world was still alright.
In this world, Orochimaru slowly devoured and strengthened his soul. Behind him was the protection of Akatsuki and Uehara. In these thousands of years, Orochimaru had actually lived a very comfortable life.
If not for the fact that he still needed to listen to Uehara’s orders…
Orochimaru really believed that he had returned to his peak.
There was one thing that made Orochimaru admire him, and that was that Uehara was indeed good to his subordinates. This person might not be as narrow-minded as he had imagined…
Right now, Orochimaru was in the laboratory. He has just finished a set of fusion experiments between Gillian and White Zetsu, but the experiment failed again… because Gillian must regain enough sanity to be able to control White Zetsu’s body.
Obviously…
This was very troublesome.
Such a monster definitely could not be released.
Although its physical strength had indeed been strengthened, without sanity, it would just become a super monster that would be slaughtered in the Forest of Menos.
“Get rid of it… Grimmjow.”
Orochimaru looked at the strange monster he had created and frowned slightly. He casually ordered and left the laboratory.
“Yes, Lord Orochimaru.”
An Arrancar with short blue hair nodded and grinned. His figure instantly appeared next to the monster and cut off its head!
In the main hall of Orochimaru’s base.
When Orochimaru came here from the laboratory, Ulquiorra, Coyote Starrk, and the others had been waiting for a while.
“Lord Orochimaru, we’re here to see you!”
Lilynette waved her little fists at Orochimaru excitedly, while Ulquiorra and Coyote Starrk bowed to Orochimaru humbly.
Because they…
They were all cultivated by Orochimaru.
No, it should be said that Orochimaru raised them all by himself.
Whether it was Ulquiorra or Coyote Starrk, they were adopted by Orochimaru before they become Arrancar.
After they become Arrancar, Orochimaru guides them like a mentor.
Therefore…
It was hard for them not to respect Orochimaru.
In a sense, Orochimaru was the true mentor of the entire Hueco Mundo. Because of Orochimaru’s help, more and more Menos, who could transform into human form, appeared, making these Menos more and more rational.
To be honest…
Orochimaru was quite good at taking care of children.
These Arrancar were all guided by him, so these Arrancar had always been very respectful to Orochimaru, even though they actually knew that Orochimaru was not a good person…
It doesn’t matter.
In any case, they were also not a good thing.
“Huh? Ulquiorra?”
The corner of Orochimaru’s mouth habitually curled into a strange smile. He asked in a hoarse voice, “Did Soul Society send any news? What order did Uehara ask you to send…”
“Yes.”
Ulquiorra nodded and said softly, “We met Itachi and Obito. They conveyed Lord Naraku’s orders to us. Lord Orochimaru can meet with Lord Aizen in the near future.”
In fact…
Orochimaru had not received an order for a long time.
Or, Orochimaru originally only had a mission of becoming the stepping stone in the rise of the Uehara clan. As a result, he did a good job in Hueco Mundo and got a new opportunity.
After hearing Aizen’s name, the smile on Orochimaru’s face was even more intense. He could not help but stick out his tongue and lick his lips, “Aizen… Sosuke?𝗯𝐞𝐝𝗻𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥.𝐜𝗼𝐦
“Yes.”
Ulquiorra nodded and said in a deep voice, “Lord Aizen will never trust anyone, so we must think of a way to make Lord Aizen be slightly willing to trust you…”
“Is that so…”
The smile on Orochimaru’s lips did not change. He smiled and said, “Do you still remember what I taught you? Ulquiorra, trust is something that can not be cultivated between people, just like how Uehara can never truly trust me… “
It was a bit embarrassing to say this.
After all, Uehara trusted Orochimaru enough.
No matter which organization it was, it was impossible to find a superior like Uehara who dared to trust his subordinates and let Orochimaru play freely.
Of course…
This might also be a form of banishment.
Orochimaru looked at Ulquiorra and chuckled, “But… if they think that we are indispensable existences… trust does not matter anymore…”
“Yes.”
Ulquiorra lowered his head humbly.
The corners of Orochimaru’s lips curled up as he smiled, “Then let’s follow Uehara’s arrangements. When Sosuke Aizen sees me, he will realize that he will come into contact with the truth of history!”
“… Yes.”
Ulquiorra nodded seriously.
Just as Orochimaru and Ulquiorra were discussing his first meeting with Aizen and making up stories for himself, the other protagonist, Sosuke Aizen, was still recuperating.
At least…
Right now, he was recuperating.
Soul Society.
Recently, Sosuke Aizen had been staying with the medical division to recuperate.
Now Aizen simply took this opportunity to entrust all the work of the 5th Division to Uehara, while he secretly controlled everything about Soul Society.
Because Uehara Naraku was attacked…
The whole Soul Society became somewhat jittery.
Central 46 and Gotei 13 were extremely angry about the incident of someone daring to attack Uehara Naraku in public. This incident was likely to lead to Soul Society’s civil war!
First of all, they must find the perpetrator!
According to the description of Sosuke Aizen, Uehara Naraku, and 5th Division’s Shinigami, Central 46 believed that the person who attacked Uehara Naraku should be the Visored dozens of years ago!
Because Ulquiorra’s dress looked too similar to Shinigami and Hollowfication…
During this period, no one yet discovered the Vasto Lorde-class Menos which can transform into an appearance that was indistinguishable from ordinary humans.
And the only person who could achieve Shinigami Hollowfication was the Visored from several decades ago, or perhaps a newcomer that Visored had secretly developed…
And there was only one person who could make Shinigami Hollowfication!
That was Urahara Kisuke who had escaped from Soul Society dozens of years ago!
No matter how they thought about it, Urahara Kisuke had a possible motive!
Because tens of years ago, Soul Society wanted to execute Urahara Kisuke, but in the end, he was saved by Shihoin Yoruichi, and the two of them fled together with the Visored.
According to the Central 46 analysis, Urahara Kisuke should want to kill Uehara Naraku, and then use the civil war between Uehara and Gotei 13 to destroy Soul Society!
After all, he dared to study Shinigami for the sake of power…
It meant that Urahara Kisuke was a madman!
Coupled with the complicated relationship between Urahara Kisuke and Kabuto, it was hard to not suspect the motive behind Urahara Kisuke’s existence…
Whether it was Urahara Kisuke or Visored who did it…
At this critical juncture, it must have been Urahara Kisuke and Visored who did it!
Because the current Uehara clan needed a perpetrator’s name to prove their strength after Uehara Naraku was attacked!
This attack was too dangerous!
The two Death Attendants responsible for protecting Uehara had both been lured away, almost causing Uehara Naraku to be killed. If not for Sosuke Aizen’s urgent action, Gotei 13 might have also been a huge suspect!
The entire Uehara City had also entered a state of alert.
Minato and the others led the Uehara clan’s Shinigami legion to patrol everywhere to avoid any infiltration into the Uehara clan.
And on the other side.
Among the 13 Death Servants, Senju Tobirama rushed to Gotei 13’s 1st Division encampment and began his talk with Head-Captain Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.
Without exception…
The talk was about the incident of the Uehara Clan’s head being attacked.
“This is a conspiracy against the entire Soul Society…”
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni looked at Tobirama who was wearing leather armor in front of him and said, “Based on Mr. Tobirama’s wisdom, it should be clear that the purpose of the perpetrator is to stir up civil war in the Soul Society…”
“That is true…”
Tobirama nodded with a gloomy face and said in a deep voice, “However, this matter has caused the anger of the entire Uehara clan. After all, Naraku has never encountered such a terrible incident. We heard that Central 46 has found clues about the perpetrator…”
“Just some doubts…”
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni frowned.
In fact, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was not very willing to believe that this was Urahara Kisuke’s doing. Moreover, all of the Visored was Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni’s subordinate back then. He also did not believe that the captain and lieutenant who had escaped from Soul Society would choose to do this…
“For the Uehara clan, just suspicion is enough.”
Tobirama hugged his arm and said softly, “I heard that the perpetrator was the Visored and Urahara Kisuke who fled Soul Society dozens of years ago… Leave the rest of the things and the truth inside to us to investigate!”
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni frowned and wanted to refuse Tobirama’s proposal, “This matter should be handed over to…”
“Your Excellency Yamamoto Shigekuni.”
Tobirama looked at Yamamoto Shigekuni in front of him and continued in a deep voice, “Don’t worry, our actions will not go beyond the Gotei 13. After all, it is the will of this generation head to let the Uehara clan integrate into the Soul Society, and we will not deliberately go against it…”
Seeing that Yamamoto Shigekuni’s brows had eased a little, Tobirama raised his true opinion, “We hope that Naraku can personally investigate the whereabouts of Visored and Urahara Kisuke. This can also be considered a kind of training for him…”
Tobirama looked at Yamamoto Shigekuni who did not directly object and continued, “Uehara clan will send enough people to protect Naraku…”
Speaking up to this point, Tobirama continued, “Similarly, we also hope that Gotei 13 can send people to assist him in the investigation…”
“…”
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was silent.
As for Sasakibe Chojiro, who was beside him, he had long wanted to wink!
There seems to be nothing to lose in accepting such an offer!
No matter what, Tobirama, who was sent out by the Uehara clan to negotiate, had already put on a humble attitude toward Gotei 13!
“Mr. Tobirama…”
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni slowly said, “Can you tell me why you want to send Lieutenant Uehara Naraku?”
“Because this is to make him realize the reality!”
Tobirama snorted and said with dissatisfaction, “This is also a training experience for Naraku. He has been spoiled since he was a child. He clearly lived in a cruel world, but he still refused to recognize the reality. There are many people in this world who want to kill him…”
When he said this, Tobirama seemed to speak in an unquestionable tone, “This is decided by my elder brother Senju Hashirama himself! This time, let him know that if no one is secretly protecting him, someone in this world has always wanted to kill him. Don’t hold on to those naive thoughts in the past… That naive thought of him would sooner or later destroy the entire Uehara clan! “
“…”
Yamamoto took a long silence.
The old man slowly shook his head and said, “Lieutenant Naraku is just a little kind. We all know that his nature is not bad…”
“…”
This time, it was Tobirama’s turn to be silent.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni did not look at Tobirama’s expression and continued softly, “Forget it. Just follow Mr. Tobirama’s suggestion. Gotei 13 will arrange the people who will help him…”
There were not many people in the entire Gotei 13 who could help Uehara.
First of all, if the captain-level Shinigami goes to assist Uehara Naraku, there would be a situation where he would be overstepping his boundaries. But it was really difficult to pick a suitable lieutenant…
After all…
This time, they were going to find the Visored. Those people who were captain and lieutenant rank decades ago would not fall too far behind in terms of combat strength…
