What's more, now both of them have basically achieved their goals.

Naruto has collected enough information about the Rain Hidden Village, whether it is that there are nine powerful rebel ninjas wearing black and red cloud cloaks hiding here, or the village was in a period of weakness due to an unexplained explosion that occurred when he left. Etc., it is enough to become a top secret that determines the direction of the situation.

As for Hagoromo Kitsune, even though there is no verbal communication yet, the connection between her and Naruto that seems to be dissolved in blood and bones, as well as the tacit understanding and natural cooperation between the two, allow her to conclude, The blond...blond child in front of her must be the person she wants to find.

The already exploded Yuyin Village was obviously unable to organize an effective blocking force at this time, so Hagoromo Fox and Naruto escaped from the village almost easily. The two of them escaped almost side by side. After a long distance, they both stood still with a tacit understanding.

"Who are you?"

With his back to the Hagoromo Fox, Naruto could feel his body trembling. Even when he jumped from a tower that was enough to fall to his death, he didn't feel such fear, but now, he clearly knew that he was afraid. ...Afraid that the woman in front of him would give an unexpected answer.

"The child... I am yours..."

Looking at Naruto's back affectionately in front of her, Hagoromo Kitsune's seemingly indifferent face also showed rare tenderness and apprehension, so that the last, apparently simple words made her pause subconsciously. , and then he finished speaking as if he was on trial.

"...Mother."

(PS1: Congratulations to the Crown Prince and the Queen Mother on their successful recognition of their relationship~ Well~ Although they are still fake Queen Mothers for the time being, I think as long as they apply a patch or something, they can become genuine ~ (⊙o⊙) Hmm)

(PS2: Next, it’s almost Itachi and Izumi’s turn~)

(PS3: Oops~~ I’m not in the right state today, I have a bit of liver pain~ So I’ll just update it once for now~~ It seems that I have to listen to my mother’s words and move the update time to daytime...)

The Birth of the Fox (2)

For human babies, they will begin to have the ability to remember at the physical age of three years old. Their growth officially begins at this time. Everything they come into contact with and see will affect their future lives. This part of the memory will even be engraved in their bones and blood. This is the so-called 'inheritance'.

But for the baby girl in the culture tank, her memory is different from that of other naturally born babies. As a semi-clone created using the blood of many adults, her bones and blood originally contained part of the memories of those blood owners. When her brain began to develop enough to read the memories, the memories retained in the blood It will naturally flow into her mind, giving her some corresponding 'memories'.

However, this is undoubtedly quite dangerous.

[The complicated blood also brings complicated memories. In a sense, memory is equivalent to 'personality'. If these memories conflict with each other, it is likely to cause her to have a mental breakdown due to memory confusion. In that case, we will have failed comprehensively. 】

Mercury Lamp's words carry a strong sense of affirmation. This tone will undoubtedly make people subconsciously follow her train of thought, making them unable to refute her orders. It is the tone and demeanor possessed by all qualified rulers.

[Oh, I remember very clearly. At the beginning, you should have only asked for 'the body to be fully integrated' to be successful, right? Controlling her memory or not is not part of the plan, right? 】

Orochimaru, who was sitting opposite the mercury lamp, retorted with interest. As a person who likes to study people, he naturally had a good impression of mercury lamp, a young but capable being, just like when he first met him. The same shock it felt when Itachi practiced shuriken.

[Of course, but I am also a person who understands rewards and punishments. She showed through her actions that she was worthy. 】

In response to Orochimaru's question, Mercury Light just raised her eyebrows slightly. After a pause, she spoke with unfinished meaning: [I mean, she deserves her own soul and personality. 】

[So, you think you are a god who can decide other people’s souls and bodies as you please? 】

Squinting his eyes, Orochimaru knew what he wanted to see clearly, which was probably the limit of the almost endless arrogance of the white-haired girl in front of him.

[No, I never think that I am a god. I have always been very self-aware. If you really want me to describe myself, I think...]

A strange smile appeared on Mercury Lamp's face, and her words followed.

[I am just a thumbtack to nail the specimen to the wooden board. 】

Orochimaru did not continue to ask, because he had concluded that the limit of the mercury lamp was beyond his estimation. This white-haired girl was indeed more powerful than him. He just wanted to gain eternal life and master all the knowledge in the world. That was all. That’s all.

However, this white-haired girl's behavior is not only an experiment, but also a way to create more knowledge, and her behavior is not only motivated by selfish desires.

The impact of memory on personality is real. What kind of memory will be born, what kind of thoughts and hearts will be born. Although there will be a probability of reversal, at least on a 90% basis, what kind of poisonous water will be irrigated. What a vicious soul.

For a person who has been exposed to dark knowledge such as murder, theft, violence, conspiracy, etc. since childhood, the probability of him becoming a murderer, thief, militant, or conspirator is at least 90%, and the remaining 10% probability is, There is a 5% chance that he will turn into a detective or law enforcer, and a 4% chance that he will become an ordinary person who hides his name and does not want to recall these memories.

The 1% that stays may become a saint.

Mercury Lamp has no interest in creating a saint, nor is she interested in creating a coward who only knows how to escape, but she also does not want to create a madman who only knows how to kill or destroy, so this determines that she must be cautious. Set' this baby girl's memory fragment.

For this ninja world, it is not too difficult to manipulate or falsify memories. From a certain concept, illusion is a trick of manipulating memory, but it only affects the surface perception of the subject. And if you want to instill false memories created by a series of illusions into the depths of people's brains, you will need more powerful forbidden arts and some auxiliary equipment.

A helmet with electrodes is worn on the baby girl's head, and the other end is a device similar to a crystal ball. Through specific techniques, it can record the memories in the baby girl's mind in a way that plays a movie. The appearance is played back for the operator to make planned adjustments and deletions.

[I must remind you that forcibly instilling memories may cause permanent brain damage to her. So, you'd better make a decision. 】

There was also some curiosity in Orochimaru's eyes. It was also his first time to do this kind of experiment on manipulating human brain memory. No matter what the result was, he could get the corresponding knowledge.

[Don’t worry, I never intended to instill additional memories into her from the beginning. All I have to do is awaken and connect the memory fragments within her bloodline, and then connect them in a planned way. 】

Mercury Lamp didn't pay much attention to Orochimaru's reminder. Temporarily pasted things are always not as stable as innate things. Of course, she knows this truth best. What's more, she doesn't think she needs to add anything at all.

As the technique was performed, the face of the baby girl in the culture jar struggled for a while, and in the crystal ball in front of the mercury lamp, some mixed memory fragments began to emerge, but the pictures in these memories were all blurry, with characters and scenery. It's like a melted oil painting image, with an unidentifiable distortion.

[Well~ Very good, first of all, the memories from childhood, I mean, the memory fragments before the age of eight. 】

Illusory ripples appeared inside the crystal ball, and soon, a picture appeared. Probably because a specific memory area was designated, several pictures that could barely be seen appeared quickly, and very soon Soon, Mercury Lamp was attracted by one of them. It was a small prison. Although the things outside the prison could not be clearly seen, the prison door surrounded by bars and the rice bowl with some scraps on the ground were clearly shown.

The memory of being imprisoned, this is undoubtedly the memory of Kimimaro. His blood was also used as one of the ingredients for this baby girl. At this moment, this memory of being imprisoned as a humanoid weapon by the tribe since childhood also emerged.

[Perfection, the memory of being isolated and imprisoned by the tribe since childhood, created a lonely but strong heart, this is it. 】

Along with the words of the mercury lamp, Orochimaru on one side raised his eyebrows slightly, and then raised his index finger to start performing the technique. With the effect of the spiritual ninjutsu, the baby girl's facial expression twitched slightly, and the memory scenes in the crystal ball also began. Disappeared, leaving only the memories of imprisonment inside the iron gate.

This memory will be the only thing the baby girl can recall from before the age of eight. This is what the mercury lamp gives her, a 'childhood' that she can recall but can never tell the truth from the false.

False memories can give birth to corresponding real feelings.

This was the knowledge Orochimaru gained after this experiment, which made him have a very strange feeling: Are the memories of his childhood real? If your past memories are also fragments that are consciously selected and modified by some invisible force, then how should you face it?

Although this guess was quite unnecessary, Orochimaru still planned to think about this issue seriously, so in the next few months, he began to frequently use some other experimental subjects to observe them by systematically instilling false memories. growth and reaction, and the results also surprised him quite a bit.

It is obviously the same individual, but after the memory in the brain is changed, the actions and choices shown are completely different, as if they have changed as a person.

Orochimaru who did this quickly received retribution. A cursed seal experimental subject whose memory had been modified by him suddenly broke out of the prison one night and frantically slaughtered most of the people left behind in the base before being swallowed by the cursed seal. personnel. The memory Orochimaru poured into him was also very simple, that is, hatred. The false memory of his wife and daughter dying tragically in front of his eyes made this experimental subject with mediocre qualifications burst out with terrifying potential, even reaching the level of Curse Seal II. stage. Although the experimental subject later exploded and died due to overdraft of his body's potential, these losses and lessons also made Orochimaru rationally stop exploring in this area.

[Physical qualifications may indeed be important, but everyone possesses something with infinite energy, which is the soul. It is not wise to rashly tease the soul. 】

This was a piece of information that Orochimaru carefully recorded after he stopped continuing experiments on memory. At the same time, he couldn't help but become more and more curious about what the baby girl in the culture tank would become.

The mercury lamp did not let Orochimaru wait too long, but came again soon, and the baby girl in the culture tank had already reached the age of about eight years old due to rapid growth. The infused childhood was basically coming to an end. .

[No matter what you do, there must be balance and center of gravity. The mistake you made was to let the hatred in your soul exceed the standard so much that it overwhelmed the balance of your personality. 】

Regarding the failure of Orochimaru's experiment, Mercury Lantern just gave the above comment very calmly, and Orochimaru, who has always been unruly, also accepted this evaluation seriously. He believed that he really needed to express his opinions to the white-haired girl in front of him in this regard. study.

[So, the painful 'childhood' has passed. Next, we have to prepare for her a boyhood full of youthful turmoil and hormones, a seemingly beautiful love affair, and a golden horse prince who can resolve her childhood loneliness. . 】

(PS1: Hmm~~I will update during the day~~I need to describe the manufacturing of the Yuyi Fox in detail~~)

(PS2: I always feel like this kind of description gives me goosebumps~~ Sure enough, the fourth daughter is a big bad guy~~)
