Chapter 638 - Let’s Be Honest, Mr. Orochimaru, Can You Be Rank Among the Top Few?
Orochimaru was right.
There were no weaklings among the 13 Death Servants.
If not for Uehara Naraku’s support and Orochimaru’s motivation, Orochimaru would only barely be able to enter the top ten positions of the 13 Death Servants.
Orochimaru was not even a match for Tobirama, Itachi, and the others.
Not to mention, the top four seats, every one of them had once stood at the apex of the world, and each of them had a unique name!
Even when Orochimaru personally faced them, he still felt some lingering fear…
For thousands of years, these seats did not need to sleep and recuperate their souls like in the past world. Instead, they only needed to stay in Uehara City to absorb spiritual energy and practice to become stronger…
To be blunt…
No matter what world Madara and the others were born in, with their talent and willpower, they would be able to stand on the highest point sooner or later. Moreover, they had walked for more than a thousand years than Sosuke Aizen and experienced the baptism of other worlds…
If they wanted to catch up to them…
This was not an easy matter.
Listening to Orochimaru’s distrust of his strength, Sosuke Aizen did not care. He just smiled and whispered, “It seems that Mr. Orochimaru should be able to tell me a lot of information…”
“Yes…”
A sharp light flashed in Orochimaru’s eyes, and after a moment, it became gentle again, “As long as you have a taste of how powerful they are… hehehehe… you will be afraid of them and dare not resist…”
“There doesn’t seem to be a need to remind me of this.”
Sosuke Aizen slowly shook his head and said softly, “If you stop because there are some thorns growing on the road ahead, it means that you will no longer be able to see the scenery on the other side of the road…”
“That’s not a thorn…”
Orochimaru’s eyes darkened slightly, and there was a hint of anger and fear on his face, “If you say it seriously…they should be the real flood that can submerge the Soul Society] …”
“All ears.”
Sosuke Aizen nodded slightly.
As a person who liked to explore the unknown, Sosuke Aizen was very willing to listen to the stories and intelligence of others, but Orochimaru’s words needed him to distinguish them properly…
To avoid being deceived by Orochimaru.
“Then let’s talk about the enemies we need to face first…”
Orochimaru glanced at Sosuke Aizen, lowered his head slightly, and said, “Because the family head of the Uehara clan relies on their secret techniques, it will take quite a while for Uehara Naraku to become our enemy…”
“No.”
Sosuke Aizen shook his head and interrupted Orochimaru. He said in a low voice, “Even the current Naraku is not someone we can look down on… Although he is still not a threat to us, I have personally seen him defeat Gillian-class Menos. This is not the height that other Shinigami can reach now…”
In other words.
Many Shinigami would find it difficult to reach this level in the end.
However, Uehara Naraku easily defeats Gillian-class Menos at this age. If it is a life-and-death battle, there is a possibility that he can contend against Adjuchas-class Menos…
When Sosuke Aizen said this, he continued to add softly, “Moreover, according to what Mr. Orochimaru said, Naraku should still be in his infancy… How long would it take for the family heads of the Uehara clan to grow from this period to the peak? Mr. Orochimaru must have an impression, right? “
“Hehehehe… not bad.”
Orochimaru nodded with a sinister smile before speaking about the Uehara clan’s secret, “Generally speaking, the family head of the Uehara clan grows to his peak at around 150 years of age. This period of time will last about a hundred years…”
This number was calculated precisely.
Because generally, Shinigami will slowly enter the mature stage at 150 years of age. In the future, they will start to rely on the accumulation of time to gradually become stronger.
When Orochimaru said this, he added, “Uehara Naraku has some differences. Among the family head of the Uehara clan that I have spied on, they will only start to master the first Zanpakuto when they are around 20 years old…”
“But…”
A light flashed under Sosuke Aizen’s lens. The corners of his mouth revealed a smile that was noticeable. He continued in a low voice, “Naraku is only 15 years old this year, yet he has already grasped the first Zanpakuto that their clan has passed down for generations…”
“No, it’s two!”
Orochimaru looked at Sosuke Aizen and suddenly reminded him, Because only when one’s own Zanpakuto has been cultivated to the level of Bankai, can one begin to touch the Zanpakuto held by the first-generation head of the Uehara clan…
Although Orochimaru knows that these were all fabricated according to the script…
However, Orochimaru has actually worked very hard to provide sufficient information for Sosuke Aizen. Orochimaru really hopes that Sosuke Aizen can take Uehara Naraku seriously…
At the very least…
He will show a little bit of an evenly-matched posture!
“Is that so…”
Sosuke Aizen held his glasses and could not help but laugh, “It seems that I have really underestimated my subordinates… This little guy is better than Mr. Orochimaru’s best friend, the first-generation head of the Uehara clan… Will he go further?”
“.. “
Orochimaru felt a little suffocated.
Sosuke Aizen really asked a good question!
After thinking for a moment, Orochimaru frowned slightly and said in a low voice, “That little brat Uehara Naraku is more talented… If there is no accident, he is likely to be the strongest one!”
After saying that, Orochimaru added, “It’s just that according to his personality, the combat power he can display may also be the weakest one…”
This was not wrong.
Even Sosuke Aizen had to agree with it.
The current Uehara Naraku was like a spoiled child who did not know the severity of the situation at all. If not for the 13 Death Servants’ protection, he would have been killed countless times…
“Is that so…”
The smile on Sosuke Aizen’s face grew wider and wider as if he had heard something happy, “Interesting. If I can think of a way to let Naraku display his full strength, he might be a good opponent in the future…”
Hmm…
Such an opponent…
It just so happened to be his future opponent.
If after the completion of Hogyoku in the future, he can control Naraku’s life little by little, making him stronger and stronger and becoming a stepping stone for himself…
This kind of thing seemed very interesting.
“Are you crazy?”
Orochimaru looked at Sosuke Aizen strangely and couldn’t help but advise, “Shouldn’t we kill him at this time?”
“…”
Sosuke Aizen was silent for a second. He smiled at Orochimaru and asked a difficult question, “Mr. Orochimaru… Can we by-passed the 13 Death Servants and kill him now?”
“…”
Orochimaru also fell into a strange silence.
Because Uehara Naraku, this bastard, has always been worried that he will have no choice but to expose his strength, so he painstakingly cultivated the 13 Death Servants as his bodyguard. The purpose was to prevent someone from plotting against him so that others would not dare to covet him…
“Mr. Orochimaru.”
Sosuke Aizen looked at Orochimaru and calmly explain, “From the moment I saw him until he became 5th Division lieutenant, I never gave up the idea of killing Naraku, but…”
There was no need to say the rest.
Because of the existence of the 13 Death Servants, Sosuke Aizen’s plans were always unsuccessful. Before Hogyoku was completed, Sosuke Aizen did not want to personally reveal his identity…
“Then tell me about the 13 Death Servants’ story…”
Orochimaru slowly nodded, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes. He said softly, “Among the 13 Death Servants, other than the last four seats that can be solved with just Arrancar, the rest are not ordinary people…”
“Their strength are really terrifying…”
Sosuke Aizen’s expression did not change as he continued calmly, “Mr. Orochimaru, can you tell me some information about the 13 Death Servants?”
“Hehehehe… I can…”
Orochimaru chuckled and slowly nodded. He talked about the information about the 13 Death Servants that could be leaked.
Because only by revealing enough information…
Only then could he further force Sosuke Aizen to create a complete Hogyoku!
The 13th seat, Rasa, was in charge of the Uehara clan’s finances. Because his ability was to extract precious minerals like gold, he was listed among the 13 Death Servants.
The 12th seat, Hozuki Gengetsu, was a possessor of the water element Zanpakuto. He was skilled in illusion. In terms of Zanpakuto alone, in a certain sense, Gengetsu’s Zanpakuto was a low-profile version of Kyouka Suigetsu…
The 11th seat, Mu, held a Zanpakuto that could annihilate everything. As long as his reiatsu was enough, theoretically, he could annihilate any enemy weaker than him…
The 10th seat, Ai, possessed the lightning element Zanpakuto. However, what Ai was better at was not Shinigami’s ability, but his physique that could fight Arrancar head-on!
When he spoke of the 9th seat, Orochimaru’s expression suddenly became a little ugly. He gritted his teeth and said, “The 9th seat… Uchiha Itachi… That bastard…”
“It sounds like there are some stories…”
Sosuke Aizen glanced at the ugly-faced Orochimaru and slowly said, “I once came into contact with the 9th seat named Uchiha Itachi. To be honest, his ability just happens to be one of the things I want to obtain…”
Uchiha Itachi’s Amaterasu’s black fire was enough to burn any fire!
Sosuke Aizen really wanted to know who was stronger between Itachi’s Amaterasu and Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni’s Ryujin Jakka…
Orochimaru quickly told Sosuke Aizen this answer.
“You don’t have to dream about it anymore…”
Orochimaru gritted his teeth and continued, “That’s an innate ability… and Amaterasu’s black fire can burn Ryujin Jakka’s fire…”
“Is that so…”
Sosuke Aizen lowered his head and pondered.
Compared to Itachi’s innate ability who was able to crack Ryujin Jakka, Sosuke Aizen was more interested in Orochimaru’s attitude toward Itachi…
This legendary senior…
Why did he seem to have suffered a great loss at the hands of the 9th seat?
It was just a pity that they had just started working together, and Sosuke Aizen did not think that this was a suitable time to ask.
Perhaps…
He could slowly investigate in the future.
“The 8th seat, Uchiha Obito, he doesn’t have any other special abilities. It’s just that people can’t find his whereabouts… The 7th seat, Namikaze Minato, doesn’t have any other abilities that are worth noting apart from speed… The 6th seat, Sarutobi Hiruzen, used to be my teacher…”
“…”
Sosuke Aizen’s expression gradually became subtle.
Sosuke Aizen had always thought that Orochimaru, this senior, was someone who could fight against the first four seats head-on. Now it seems that his thoughts were a little biased…
