Now take into account that Orochimaru defected from the village in his early thirties. That means he had about a twenty-year window to complete all those missions. This man ate, slept, and breathed ninja action. You could imagine the isolation, and mental strain Orochimaru had during his time as a ninja. I could only imagine what his actual elimination count was all those years. Even more disturbing was how much his mission ranking progressed.
To only do 16 D-Rank missions meant they moved him on up very young. No one in this village seems to know a thing about developmental psychology! But, what I find to be the most disturbing about Orochimaru is how people flock to him. Orochimaru was able to inspire fierce loyalty in his servants. From Kabuto to the Sound Four, to Kimmimaro, all were willing to follow him to their deaths. When Anko was growing up, it was almost implied she fell in love with Orochimaru and allowed him to use and experiment on her body.
Though never loyal to him, Orochimaru was even able to sway Sasuke to abandon his entire life in the village, just for the promise of power. Orochimaru is a great story of what could have been. Together with Tsunade and Jiraiya, they were arguably the greatest ninja squad to ever live before Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke matured. To be the strongest, from the strongest squad, has a lot of implications. Orochimaru was able to 2 vs 1 Jiraya and Tsunade, without the use of his arms.
Granted he had Kabuto pulling some weight, and Tsunade was a little rusty, but still, that was no easy feat. Despite Tsunade and Jiraiya's good hearts, Orochimaru was better than both of them, basically since birth. I think this is where Naruto differs from a lot of shonen manga. Sometimes, the bad guy is just better than you, and no amount of Nakama magic is ever going to change that.
Among them was his star pupil, Orochimaru. Sarutobi often chastised Jiraya and wanted him to be more like Orochimaru. In fact, if Sarutobi had his way, Orochimaru would have been the Fourth Hokage.
Eventually, Orochimaru would repay his master, by killing him. Orochimaru was left with a bitter hatred for the leaf, but had he not strayed off to the path of evil, he would have easily gotten his wish to lead the village. Talk about throwing a kunai into your own foot. There was a period of pandemonium and fear in the hidden leaf as powerful shinobi kept disappearing.
Eventually, those disappearances were traced back to Orochimaru. Before he made his leave permeant, Orochimaru stole 60 infants from Konoha for his experiments. The one to survive was none other than Captain Yamato. What is interesting to note is where he found these people, particularly Jugo.
He had set up large prison camps, where he would house his failed experiments, or cultivate potential vessels for a body transfer. The conditions in these camps were less than stellar, as Orochimaru saw their inhabitants as assets, and not living things. Sasuke ended up liberating some of these camps, but only the ones he found.
It begs the question, how many of these did Orochimaru set up, and what happened to the poor souls in the ones we never got to see? Then you see that he kind of just snatches bodies for the heck of it. The first of Orochimaru's students to sign a contract with snakes, as well as the first to gain the cursed seal and survived.
Anko learned several forbidden and snake-related techniques with Orochimaru, such as the Twin Snakes Mutual Death Technique. In the anime, it was also stated that she had built up an immunity to venom. Sasuke mainly used the snakes he summoned as shields to defend himself. He would later summon them once again during the Fourth Shinobi World War when he summoned Aoda to the battlefield. At first, Kabuto only aided Orochimaru in summoning snakes while his arms were disabled.
He later began to summon snakes on his own after implanting Orochimaru's remains into himself. He gained access to a Sage Mode which, according to him, allowed him to figuratively transcend from a snake into a " dragon ". Mitsuki is able to summon snakes, which he uses as a means of communication or in tandem with various techniques. In the anime, Boruto made a temporarily summoning contract with Garaga.
Narutopedia Explore. Wiki Activity. He gained access to a Sage Mode which, according to him, allowed him to figuratively transcend from a snake into a "dragon". This was recalled during the Konoha Crush, which was led by the snake-themed Orochimaru. Orochimaru's Eight Branches Technique is also described as ascending beyond snakes, becoming a dragon god.
