Chapter 903: You've Been Surrounded
“In addition, Orochimaru also mastered the Sage Mode of Ryuchi Cave.” In Hokage’s Office, Kanpū dropped another bombshell.
“Sage Mode?”
Minato was incredulous, “The Sage Mode of Three Holy Lands requires extremely high talent to train, and it can't be compensated for by shortcuts. Even the Chimera Technique wouldn't be able to do it!”
The Chimera Technique could only devour the Kekkei Genkai of others, but it couldn't devour the Sage Mode mastered by others.
“Hokage-sama, do you still remember Shisui’s new arm?” Kanpū reminded.
Minato startled: “The arm that was transplanted with Shodaime-sama’s cells?”
“Yes, I only found this severed arm in Otogakure at the time, but the owner of this severed arm has been missing.” Kanpū said.
“What do you mean?” Minato’s heart skipped a beat. He then remembered that Hiruzen had told him that Orochimaru had been studying Ninjutsu for eternal life in the soul reincarnation category, ‘Could he have succeeded?’
“I suspect that Orochimaru moved his soul into the owner of that severed arm and then used the body's lack of rejection to absorb the Sage Chakra of the White Snake Sage, thus learning Sage Mode.” Kanpū analyzed convincingly.
