I would like to announce that I released a new fiction titled My Life In The Multiverse, check it out and tell me what you think.

While being treated by Tsunade in the hospital, she noticed that Mukai appeared absent-minded which made her ask "Why did you two go so far?"

Mukai, stared at her slightly before he responded with a shrug "We didn't use our full strength, he was holding back, and so was I"

"You idiot, you almost ruined his leg" Said Tsunade as she punched him in the head causing a bump to appear on it but he didn't bother dodging it 'Damn you Bakorio, leaving me alone with this annoying woman' he thought before his mind drifted to the scene of Guy unlocking the 8 gates…

As an outsider of Konoha that was only picked up by Hiruzen who invited him to his Anbu because of his amazing skills, he always felt like an outsider during his stay here since people didn't completely trust him, so he wasn't allowed to train such a forbidden technique like the 8th gates despite his great desire for it, and that desire slowly died down when his son fell ill and he had to stay with him at all times to earn enough money and take care of him so he couldn't risk training such a dangerous Jutsu…

'However, now things are different…' Thought Mukai as Bakorio's figure appeared in his head with his son Murata jumping on his back and playing with his hair 'Even if I die, my family will be okay with him around, but I'm sure even if I do, he won't leave me dead for long…'

A small relaxed smile appeared on Mukai's face surprising Tsunade 'Why's he smiling? Did I hit him too hard in the head' She thought, but she was unaware that Mukai for the first time in his life, felt free from all of his shackles… This was a turning point in his life that was going to give birth to a terrifying monster, for he was the most talented Kohinata clan member that inherited their purest bloodline, and he was going to unleash its full potential!

…..

During his journey back home, Bakorio kept replaying the fight between Guy and Mukai inside his head, and the more he did, the more intrigued he felt 'The 8 gates are indeed overpowered, but seeing the state it left Guy in after only using up to the 5th gate, it appears that I will have to try to find a way to fix it before it becomes a viable fighting solution for me…'

Bakorio kept thinking about how to fix this huge flaw in the 8 gates, including using Orochimaru's Jutsu to possess a new body after using it but this one has a huge cooldown and is the same as being forced to wait 3 years each time he uses it, not to mention that he will be forced to sacrifice his current body which was a no no for him.

The other solution would be to use it alongside Tsunade's regeneration Jutsu, but he felt like it would only make the duration of the Jutsu shorter since that Jutsu shortens the lifespan of its user…

After thinking about many things, he couldn't help but notice some kids playing around with toy kunais pretending to be ninjas and he was attracted to the dark color of the kunais…

'Dark chakra allows the user to surpass their normal body's potential… If I can master it, it might make up for the flaw of the 8 gates, but this means I will have to fix its own flaw…' Bakorio felt like this was the best solution for now, and it might work so he decided to start his research as soon as possible…

…..

Meanwhile, at the land of sound inside a hidden cave, Kabuto kept absorbing all of the knowledge Orochimaru taught him, and the latter was left speechless by Kabuto's talent. Orochimaru found that he was a prodigy just like he used to be, and unlike his usual pawns, for the first time he found someone that could carry on his legacy! Although he wasn't planning to die at any time in the near future…

"Orochimaru-sama, Experiment 403 ended in failure after testing the new solution to stabilize the bloodline, the reaction between Bakorio's blood, and the sample he gave us from Hashirama's blood failed again, but this time they begin merging slightly before Hashirama's bloodline destroyed Bakorio's…

"Experiment 404… After adding…"

Kabuto kept explaining the results of each experiment one after the other and Orochimaru couldn't help but wonder 'Just what in the hell are we creating for it to be this hard…' He was used to experimenting on all kinds of bloodlines including rare ones such as Kimamaro's, yet he still instinctively felt like they were trying to create something terrifying… And it excited him greatly…

Kabuto frowned slightly at Orochimaru's crazed look but he was used to it so he ended up ignoring it and said " Currently, our best result is only at a synchronization rate of 11%"

The reason they were finding it hard to merge the two was because of Bakorio's other bloodlines interfering, and now with the addition of the Hyuga bloodline, it was going to make their lives even more miserable…

"What do you think is the reason for this?" Asked Orochimaru trying to test Kabuto and latter pondered for a bit and said "Bakorio-kun has a very unique bloodline that is different from a pure Uchiha bloodline and it contains many attributes, just the fact that they are coexisting normally in his body is a miracle, I think we will need to identify each attribute and try to study them individually first before we try merging everything together and add Hashirama's to the mix…"

Orochimaru's eyes lit up slightly and he asked with a twisted grin "And how do you think we are going to find those out? If I had my previous lab, there's a chance to do this since I collected many data in it… But unfortunately, I had to destroy it during my escape…"

Orochimaru's heart ached slightly as he recalled his great escape from Konoha but Kabuto's voice cut him off from his daydreaming as he said "I think we should ask Bakorio directly and see what he knows, he probably knows his body better than us after all…"

Orochimaru's eyes flashed slightly as those bloodline research papers Bakorio gave him came to his mind and he felt like this was a good idea so he nodded at Kabuto and the latter took out the communication device Bakorio left him and started injecting his chakra into it… Of course, Bakorio would never leave a communication device to a creep like Orochimaru so he left it with Kabuto…

….

Back at Konoha, Bakorio was surprised by Kabuto calling him but he still picked up his communication device and listened to him "Hi Bakorio-kun, How are you doing…"

Bakorio chatted with Kabuto for a little as the latter asked about the situation in Konoha and how Nono was doing and Bakorio told him that she was doing fine as she went back to her job in the orphan which made him happy, after that they started talking about business as Kabuto said

"We reached a bottleneck in the bloodline research despite the research you provided us, can you help clarify a few things? it might help us greatly"

"That snake is really useless… " muttered Bakorio and Orochimaru clearly heard this as he took the communication device from Kabuto with a sick smile and said "Thank you for the compliment Bakorio-kun"

Bakorio's face darkened slightly "Yo, white creep, what do you want to know?"

Kabuto chuckled slightly after seeing the look on Orochimaru's face but he immediately shut up after he was glared at as Orochimaru started explaining the situation to Bakorio and finished by saying "So do you have any idea what the elements in your bloodline are?"

Bakorio pondered slightly before he opened his status and said "Well, they should be Uchiha, Shadow, and Akimichi bloodline..."

After pausing for a while Bakorio said "I also have a Hyuga bloodline, I will have to send you a new sample of my blood…"

Orochimaru's jaw almost dropped to the floor when he heard this as he thought 'Why are you making our lives miserable when you can integrate so many bloodlines…' But he would never guess that it was a terrifying system that achieved this…
