Because Orochimaru...

Nanako nodded and said, "Uncle... Danzo decided to execute me, and then handed me over to Orochimaru." At this point, her tone was a little more sarcastic.

"Maybe I think I can still have final value, so before I execute me, I will hand me over to Orochimaru as material for experiments."

"Orochimaru injects your and Hashirama's cells into my arms."

As he said that, Nanako took off her black robe and wore a thin sleeveless dress with only a black close-fitting clothing.

Ye Zi's eyes quickly swept past Nanako's mature body and finally landed on her arm, which was the same color as Bai Jue's body, pale and looked lifeless.

Nanako recalled the memories of that time. The heart-wrenching pain is still vivid in her mind, but her tone is very calm, and she said, "At that time, my arm could not bear the cells of you and Hashirama, and it exploded to pieces. Because it hurts so much, I fainted. When I woke up, my arm grew again, but my body was also very weak.

"The person who handled the body buried me in a place. I finally opened the body bag and came out of the soil to recognize that it was near the root exit."

"I didn't have time to think about why my arms grew. I was hungry and tired at that time, and I knew I couldn't continue to stay, so at that time I planned to escape from Konoha first."

"But, with my condition at that time, let alone the subsequent plans, even escaping from Konoha is a problem."

"To make the condition better..."

Nanako's expression suddenly changed a little. Her eyes deliberately avoided Ye Zi, looked at a corner of the room, and recalled the choices she made at that time, and indifference and disgust appeared in her eyes.

"That place is where the roots deal with the corpses. In the past, according to the convention, the cremated ashes of the corpses were sprinkled near the roots. Finally, it was only because of some thoughts that they were used to bury them, so many corpses were buried in that place."

"I…"

Nanako's expression became a little cold.

"Found a newer place nearby, dug up there, and found the recently dead body."

Nanako chose to remain silent when she said this, but Ye Zi understood the choice Nanako made to survive.

She avoided her eyes, as if she did not dare to face Ye Zi, because the choices she made to survive were hard for ordinary people to accept. The reason why she wanted to survive was because she did not want to lose the opportunity to see that person again, and there were also things she had promised but had not yet completed.

Therefore, for the sake of important people, she would not give up the hope of life no matter what. Even if she was extremely resistant to that matter, she did not hesitate for too long.

"What matters is not the process, but the result. If you survive, this is the result. It is more important than anything. Maybe there are many things that will be more important than life, but it will never be the choice you made at that time." Ye Zi did not think that there was any problem with Nanako's choice. In order to survive, people will play all their possibilities.

When a person's life is threatened, he can even kill people, but what is this?

"You did it right." He looked at Nanako beside him, stretched out his hand, and slowly stroked his long hair that was as smooth as satin. In the past, only the sideburns were silver, but now a large part of it has turned into white hair.

"Great hair." The darkness in Ye Zi's eyes flashed.

If it weren't for him, maybe Nanako wouldn't have encountered so many things.

Everything arose because of him.

Feeling Ye Zi's caress, the indifference and disgust in Nanako's eyes disappeared. She used to concentrate on experiments, so her hair was always not taken care of, so it was so oily and greasy. One day, Ye Zi said something casually and she kept it in her heart. Since then, she began to pay attention to the care of her hair.

"But he certainly wouldn't have thought of this."

Nanako slowly turned her head, looked at Ye Zi who was close to her, stretched out her pale but unsightly hand, stroked Ye Zi's cheek, and said sincerely: "Until this moment, I will never regret the choice I made."

Ye Zi did not resist Nanako's touch. When she heard what she said, her eyes trembled slightly, and then she quickly returned to calm.

"What's next?" he asked instead.

Nanako's thoughts paused, put down her hand, and continued, "At that time, I finally escaped from Konoha, and I wandered aimlessly, wanting to find a place to settle down first and then find a chance to notify you, but when I found a place to settle down, news of you dying in the Land of Earth came."

"I don't want to believe it. I inquire from multiple sources and finally have to admit the news."

A crazy light suddenly appeared in Nanako's eyes.

"I had an idea at that time, to change the fact that you were dead, and I want to...resurrect you!"

Ye Zi's body shook slightly, and as the madness in Nanako's eyes gradually faded, his expression seemed complicated for a moment.

Nanako immersed in the memories of that time, did not notice Ye Zi's expression, and continued, "So, I found Daming of Nono Country. With the help of Daming of Nono Country, I had basic equipment, and then began to develop drugs, and the root cause was my arms."

She raised her pale and blood-free arm and said calmly: "This is Hashimara's cells, but it is not so easy to fusion with the human body. Normally, I will be supported by Hashimara's cells, so it is basically certain that Orochimara used some means to successfully fusion of Hashimara cells."

"After so long, his research should have reached the last step. Orochimaru's ability in this area is really terrible."

"And I have my direction, but I don't need it now."

Speaking of this, Nanako smiled slightly, looked at Ye Zi seriously, and said, "You are not dead, it's really good."

Ye Zi silently picked up the black robe, put it on Nanako's body, and said, "This sentence is what I want to say to you."

Nanako did not say too much about his experience, but Ye Zi knew very well that it was not that easy for Nanako, who was of average strength, to reach this level.

"I came here. I originally wanted to find someone who developed the medicine, but I didn't expect it would be you." Ye Zi said directly.

Before he came, he could not have thought that this person would be Nanako, and he was still thinking about how to recruit him. Now he has been better, saving a lot of trouble.

Nanako looked at him quietly with a smile on his face.

"Since this person is you, things will be simple, and I need your help."

"Okay." Nanako nodded without hesitation at all.

As he thought, Nanako agreed to his request without any hesitation.

"First of all, you can use the side of this potion to improve it. If it doesn't work, it's okay. Just speed up the onset time and duration."

Ye Zi took a few steps, picked up the syringe on the ground, and turned around to look at Nanako.

"You did the troops of the Noble Kingdom." Nanako immediately guessed that the troops of the Noble Kingdom were destroyed by Ye Zi.

Ye Zi nodded, admitted that he did it, and then said, "This potion is very useful to me, but it takes too long to take effect."

"Give me time, I can improve it." Nanako said, her eyes falling on Ye Zi's black hair.

Ye Zi took off her black robe and showed her arms that were the same color as Nanako, and said lightly: "If there is not enough material, just say it."

Nanako's eyes moved and looked at Ye Zi's arm. A complex light suddenly burst out in her eyes. She couldn't help but run into Ye Zi's arms, holding his neck, and was silent in his arms at this moment.

She has always cared about this ugly arm, but now she doesn't care at all.

Ye Zi silently reached out and hugged Nanako's back.
