In the Land of Thunder, a temporary stronghold of the Xiao Organization.

In the dim and dark cavern, a few shadows on the ground flickered and swayed in the faint light of the fire.

"Has the news been released?" Madara Uchiha sat casually on the main seat, and there were several people standing in the open space of the cave.

"The news should have been transmitted back to the Land of Thunder, and if the Eight-Tails Pillar Force is in the territory of the Land of Thunder, it will definitely know." Black Jedi replied.

Madara Uchiha nodded slightly, as long as the Thunder Shadow was in his hand, he was not afraid that the Eight-Tailed Pillar Force would not appear.

After a moment of silence, Madara Uchiha asked again, "What about the other thing?" Got eyebrows? ”

"There is no information about Miaomu Mountain for the time being..."Before Hei Jue's words fell, he felt a sharp gaze shoot at him.

He quickly changed his tone and said, "But the approximate range has been determined, and it will be determined after the Eight-Tails capture is over!" ”

Receiving an affirmative answer, Madara Uchiha slowly withdrew his gaze.

……

In the snowy woods, a cold snap set off a biting cold wind, and the snowflakes fell to the ground staggeringly.

The giant raccoon walked ahead, heading for a valley deep in the woods.

On the thick snow, a long trail of footprints was left behind.

Kirabi was surprisingly quiet, silently following behind the raccoon.

Under the low rocks of the valley, in the leeward place, there was a bonfire burning dry wood and crackling sounds.

The warm flames dispelled the cold, and a diminutive middle-aged uncle sat cross-legged in front of the campfire.

"Mr. Kim!" Kirabi approached quickly and sat down beside the middle-aged uncle.

"Than? Why are you here? Xiao Jin was slightly stunned, and then showed a look of sudden realization, "Did you leave Yunyin Village to find clues from Lord Thunder Shadow?" ”

The news that the Thunder Shadow had fallen into the hands of Madara Uchiha had spread throughout the Land of Thunder through the White Absolute Sect.

But Kirabi is different, he sneaked out of Yunyin Village, in order to avoid being discovered by Yun Ninja, he didn't contact the ninja along the way, and the route he took was a remote valley.

So Kirabi didn't know what was going on in the Iron Country.

Hearing Kim's words, Kirabi looked puzzled. Didn't the eldest brother secretly go to the Land of Iron for the Five Shadows Talks?

Why is Mr. Xiaojin's words...

"Teacher Xiaojin, why do you ask that?" Kirabi frowned slightly, and his tone became uneasy.

"Don't you know? Lord Thunder Shadow, he..."

……

Tanokuni, Otoshinobi Village.

The cunning rabbit has prepared several hiding places.

Orochimaru's stronghold in Tanokuni is naturally not just one or two, and the power of Otoshinobi Village was quickly integrated after Orochimaru's resurrection.

The heads of the major bases expressed their willingness to follow Orochimaru's orders.

In the process, there was an episode that was not too big or too small.

Yakushidou, Orochimaru's former henchman, completely disappeared before Orochimaru returned to Otoshinobi Village.

No one knows where Yakushidou went, but one thing is for sure, he has betrayed Orochimaru.

Orochimaru was standing in the underground chamber, and all his research materials were taken away.

Including forbidden techniques such as non-corpse reincarnation, filthy earth reincarnation, as well as all very important information such as Dragon Earth Cave, White Phosphorus Snake, etc.!

This room is only accessible to Orochimaru and Yakushidou.

"Pocket... What a greedy guy. Orochimaru pinched his chin, his golden snake-like eyes narrowed dangerously.

The taste of betrayal is really unpleasant...

Hiss~~

A small snake with a breath of temperament got in and jumped straight up around Orochimaru's legs.

Then, with a swish, the nimble little snake slipped through Orochimaru's wide-sleeved robe.

Orochimaru, who was meditating alone, was awakened by the little snake in his cuff, and with a movement of his fingers, the technique was unraveled, and all the information that the little snake saw merged into his mind.

"So that's the guy here!"

Orochimaru smiled lowly, turned around and walked out of the underground secret room.

In the long and narrow passage, it was dark and cold.

The four of them were blocked in the middle of the road with solemn faces, and the windbreakers with red clouds and black backgrounds, and the leaf-shaped ninja forehead guards were crossed by a horizontal bar.

None of this is the point, the point is the pair of scarlet eyes, and two black triangular windmills appear in front of them in the pupils.

The huge pupil power overflowed, and it seemed as if the whole person was going to be sucked in at a glance.

The four of them suddenly felt their bodies stiffen, the picture seemed to be frozen, and everyone stood in place with a sluggish expression.

Motionless!

Just a look made the proud Otoshinobi fall into a fantasy realm among the four people!

Illusion, Uchiha Itachi's illusion!

"Tsk... Itachi, have you learned to bully children? A sudden hoarse and low voice broke the freeze.

The four of them also came to their senses in an instant, looking at Uchiha Itachi with a frightened expression.

Just one casual look can make them all fall into an illusion, this man is terrifying!

"Let's go down." Orochimaru waved his hand and said impatiently.

Hearing this, the four of them were pardoned, and after saluting respectfully, they all disappeared in place.

In the long, dimly narrow passageway, only Orochimaru and Uchiha Itachi were left, and the flames on the walls kept beating.

The firelight fell on the figures of the two people, illuminating two black shadows on the ground.

The shadows swayed as the flames kept beating, like two terrible demons intertwined, struggling to bite each other.

The invisible battle unfolded, and the momentum exuded by the two of them became stronger and stronger.

The air seemed to be squeezed together by two large hands, and it was so heavy that it was breathless.

"Orochimaru, you seem to be getting weaker and weaker." The scarlet color in Uchiha Itachi's pupils receded, and the momentum around his body disappeared with it.

Orochimaru chuckled and habitually licked his tongue with an evil smile on his face.

It's not that he's getting weaker, it's that the ferret is getting stronger.

The unsettling aura that permeated the air faded away, and Uchiha Itachi walked closer, and Orochimaru turned and walked inside the base.

Trample... Trample...

In the long and narrow passage, the sound of clear footsteps gradually moved towards the underground base inside the passage.

Inside the hall, drowsy and cold, it is the favorite environment of poisonous snakes.

The same goes for the base of Otoshinobi Village, which is completely arranged according to Orochimaru's preferences.

On either side of the long table, Orochimaru and Uchiha Itachi sat across the table, and a cup of strong tea was placed in front of the table, and a special smell wafted out.

"Orochimaru, let's get straight to the point." Uchiha Itachi didn't want to waste time, and he didn't like to be in such a gloomy, clammy and cold place at all.

Invisibly, there seem to be countless poisonous snakes lurking in the depths of the darkness, waiting for the opportunity to kill their prey with one blow!

Orochimaru shook the cup and took a sip from his lips, he seemed to see the unnaturalness on Itachi's face.

"Itachi, I'm surprised you're here."

However, it is also to be expected.

Because Sasuke-kun is also in Otoshinobi Village!

"You betrayed Dongge, you want to survive." Uchiha Itachi stared at Orochimaru expressionlessly and said coldly, "So don't talk nonsense. ”

Dry and cold words will be uncomfortable in anyone's ears, especially the arrogant Orochimaru.

Sure enough!

As soon as he heard Itachi's words, Orochimaru's face immediately sank, and a dangerous cold light appeared in his golden vertical pupils.

It's just that Orochimaru is also a guy who is extremely deep in the city, and the dangerous look in his eyes is fleeting.

Immediately after, Orochimaru hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled lowly.

The oppressive and heavy atmosphere was instantly diluted.

"Betrayal of Dongge? No, no, no..."Orochimaru shook his finger upright, "Toge and I have never been companions. ”

Therefore, there is no talk of betrayal or betrayal at all.

In Orochimaru's eyes, there are only allies with interests, and when interests conflict, it is when they become enemies who tear apart the alliance.

"There's something I want to verify." Orochimaru said.

"Verify something?" Itachi Uchiha raised an eyebrow, a glint flashing in his dark eyes.

"That's right!" Orochimaru's eyes froze, and the corners of his mouth hooked into a confident smile, "What exactly did you see in that mysterious ruin of the Grass Country!" ”

The mysterious ruins of the country of grass?

Kaguya Palace?

Uchiha Itachi's face was stunned, and his calm face finally changed color, he remembered that only Tsunade, Kakashi, and Maitkai knew about it.

In order not to let Orochimaru see the abnormality.

Itachi leaned back in his chair and relaxed, lazily holding his hands.

It seemed that the three guys didn't trust him, so they deliberately leaked his name when they told those secrets.

The purpose was to determine which side he was really on.

During the time of Orochimaru's death, Yakushidou still used the power of the sound ninja village to monitor the Konoha village.

Five Shadows' plan is good, leaving behind a shadow that confuses the enemy, while the main body quietly leaves the village and enters the Iron Country for talks.

Tsunade even stayed by his side, and Mute specially stayed in the village.

Originally, when Tsunade, Kakashi, Maitkai, and Sarutobi Asma left Konoha Village for the first time, Otoshinobi, who was lurking in Konoha, didn't notice it.

But when Sarufei Asma was injured and returned to the village, and Konoha Village sent an elite team composed entirely of upper ninja to set off, it was detected by the sound ninja who was hiding in the dark.

So, what Tsunade and the others said in the Iron Country venue, Orochimaru got complete information.

"Although the Five Shadows Talks are very secretive, they can't escape my eyes." Orochimaru said confidently.

"What do you want to verify?" Receiving an affirmative answer, Uchiha Itachi was not angry, and he might have done the same.

After all, he was the one who slaughtered the entire Uchiha clan.

And the only ones who really know the truth are the three generations of Hokage who have died, and the old guy from Danzo.

"The stone tablet in the Hui Night Palace, about the life experience of Dongge." Orochimaru put away the smile on his lips, and his face became very solemn.

"He's really... Is it the son of the goddess of U, the big barrel of wood Kaguya, and the younger brother of the six immortals of the big barrel of wood feather? ”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere instantly froze, and the space seemed to be frozen.

Each other could only hear their own heartbeats, and Uchiha Itachi's eyes were covered by the broken hair on his forehead, and Orochimaru couldn't see his heart.

Even Orochimaru himself didn't notice it, his palms clenched into fists tightly, and his fingertips sank into his palms.

In the hall, the firelight flickered.

For a moment, the room fell into an eerie silence.

I don't know how long it took, but when Orochimaru felt that his body was a little stiff, Uchiha Itachi slowly put down his hands on the table.

"That's exactly what the stele says." Itachi sat up straight and spat out an affirmative answer.

The affirmative answer came out of Itachi's mouth, and even though he was already prepared in his heart, Orochimaru's face couldn't help but change greatly.

The already bloodless pale face looked even more ugly at this time.

"Then about the Eye of the Moon Project, it's true that Toge wants to see Kaguya again in his dreams?" Orochimaru asked in a deep voice.

He couldn't believe that such a thing was really possible.

Let everyone sleep into a sweet dream...

"Infinite Tsukiyomi does exist, not only on the stone tablets of Kaguya Palace, but also on the stone tablets that have been handed down from the Uchiha clan." The Uchiha Itachi's tone, as if talking about the weather, was unsettling.

"So Toge is really here to see Kaguya?" Orochimaru frowned and asked again uncertainly.

"Perhaps...", but this time, Uchiha Itachi's answer was very vague.

Because Dongge's predecessor is the only one he can't see through!

In the brazier on the wall, the flames made a dry popping sound.

The temperature was warming up little by little, and the two of them had been here for too long, and the oxygen in the closed hall was gradually thinning.

Orochimaru took a deep breath and waved open the door to the hall, a fresh stream of air pouring in to blow away the dull and oppressive feeling.

"Itachi, I think we can work together."

This is also the purpose of Orochimaru's real invitation to Uchiha Itachi to Otoshinobi Village, in addition to confirming what Kakashi said during the Five Shadows Talks.

Orochimaru decides to join forces with Uchiha Itachi, and his dream will not come true in his dreams.

Fight?

Orochimaru is not interested!

Orochimaru just wants to find a way not to get stuck in an infinite monthly reading.

"Heh... I really didn't expect this kind of thing to come out of your mouth. ”

Uchiha Itachi chuckled with a sneer, and he could see that Orochimaru was real.

But itachi still felt funny, Itachi laughed at a guy that Orochimaru was so proud of, that he would be afraid of that guy.

That's right, Orochimaru was afraid!

Otherwise, I wouldn't have prepared in advance for the technique of infinite monthly reading.

"The key to completing that technique is the power of the tailed beast, if you can't resurrect the ten tails, the infinite moon reading can't be completed." Uchiha Itachi said.

"Now that the Xiao Organization has obtained the Seven Tailed Beasts, the remaining eight and nine tails are the most critical points..."

At this time, Orochimaru suddenly interrupted Itachi's words with a loud voice. I saw him shake his fingers, "Itachi, you misunderstood. ”

Uchiha Itachi frowned slightly when he heard this, he misunderstood?

"I don't want to stop Toge or Madara Uchiha's Eye of the Moon plan..."Orochimaru hooked the corners of his mouth into a wicked smile.

"I'm just trying to find a way to crack the infinite monthly reading."

There's a big difference between stopping the Moon Eye Project and hacking the Infinite Moon Reading!
