"Orochimaru-sama, we have observed a somewhat abnormal data, if you have time, can you come over and help analyze it?"

"Anomalous data?"

Orochimaru, who was observing the situation in a petri dish with somewhat unusual data, raised his head and looked at the misty ninja with a little nervousness and uneasiness.

"Interesting, I think you seem to be a member of the Fog Hidden Intelligence Observation Force, right? I have almost no contact with you on weekdays, so why did you suddenly come to me to ask for help? ”

"Because, because ......"

The members of the Fog Hidden Intelligence Observation Force swallowed nervously, and said unconfidently, "We think that you are a researcher that Mizukage-sama relies on, and you have seen and dabbled in it enough, maybe, you may be able to see the hidden information behind these data that we can't understand." ”

Orochimaru raised his eyebrows, and while taking the other party's not-so-clever compliment as a matter of course, he licked his cheeks with his tongue of astonishing length with an evil face, and said with low interest:

"Then let's talk about what the anomalous data you have observed, and then I will decide whether to put aside the experiments that the four generations of Mizukage have taken care of for the time being, and help you analyze the causes behind the data......

"Yes, it's a piece of data about the Moon's orbit, which suddenly and unusually approaches the Earth for some distance......"

The upper ninja of the Fog Hidden Observation Force handed a copy of the data that had been compared to Orochimaru's hand, and whispered a piece of news that made him stunned.

"You mean...... Moon? ”

"Yes, Orochimaru-sama!"

Seeing that Orochimaru's performance seemed to be dramatic, the member of the Fog Hidden Observation Force who came to ask for help was immediately shocked, and immediately introduced the reason why they came to ask for help for Orochimaru in concise and capable words:

"You should know that due to the need to formulate calendars and observe the weather, the major ninja villages and even families have actually maintained the tradition of observing the movement of the moon and the changes of the stars, and in the long history of observation in the past, the changes of the moon and the stars have always been relatively stable and regular."

"But just last night, the ninjas on duty of our observation force found that the trajectory of the moon had an unprecedented anomaly, and it was very obvious that it was approaching the earth."

While listening to the descriptions of the members of the observation force, Orochimaru also quickly skimmed through all the data provided by the other party, and after confirming that what the other party said was true, he raised his head and asked expressionlessly:

"Why did you ask me for help in the first place, instead of reporting it to the four generations of Mizukage?"

"Because we only observed the anomaly data last night, we can't determine for the time being whether this is an observation error by the ninja on duty, or if there is really something abnormal in the orbit of the moon......"

The members of the Observation Force took a step back with some embarrassment and helplessness, and whispered in defense:

"If we want to report this matter to the four generations of adults, then we must collect more anomalous data to support our opinions, but Orochimaru-sama, you are the head of the scientific research department appointed by the four generations of adults, if you also agree with our opinion, then the amount of anomalous data we need to collect should be reduced a lot......"

"I see...... Then, I will accept this request for help, and if it is finally determined that this anomalous data is not false, I will let the four generations of Mizukage know about your merits. ”

Orochimaru nodded, and his expression received the data provided by the observation force in his arms without fluctuation, and the Kirishin Shinobu who had come to ask for help with the mentality of trying it out also breathed a sigh of relief, and after bowing to Orochimaru and thanking him, he disappeared into his laboratory in an instant, preparing to go back to collect more anomalous data that could be used as evidence with his colleagues.

Seeing that the other party's figure disappeared, the expression on Orochimaru's face became much more solemn, and after simply calling the medicine master who was in charge of the other petri dishes to explain the task, he hurriedly left his laboratory and walked towards the Mizukage's office.

Less.

Kaguya, who was still unhappy because she was disturbed from taking a nap, couldn't help frowning in front of this data that recorded the abnormal trajectory of the moon, just like Orochimaru before.

"It seems that you also think that this is not an observation error."

"The people who can be selected for the intelligence observation force are basically the best perceptual ninjas in the major ninja villages, and with their level, even if there is an error in perception, there shouldn't be such an exaggerated deviation."

Looking at Kaguya's serious expression while shaking his head, Orochimaru exhaled, then leaned back on the bookshelf in Mizukage's office, and asked in a deep voice:

"If this is not a natural phenomenon that exists within the limits of observational error, then does it mean ...... Is this the movement created by the big barrels of wood on the moon? ”

"Eight or nine are not far from ten, but what exactly do they want to do...... I don't understand it. ”

Kaguya Ren put down the data in his hand, lightly tapped the desktop with his hand, and muttered to himself in confusion:

"It's okay to take the white eyes of Hinata Hinata, as long as you don't do anything superfluous, no one else will be aware of their existence at all except for an insider like me, but move the moon...... This movement was a little too big, so big that even if they moved the moon back to its original orbit now, it would not be possible not to make people suspicious. ”

"For a hidden force like them, who has been high above the moon for thousands of years and has watched the historical changes of the ninja world coldly, it is really a bit too much to suddenly take such a fanfare action for no reason......

"Abnormality usually means that there has been a change, whether internal or external, and there must be one or more changes that are sufficient to cause them to act abnormally."

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes, looked at Kaguya Ren thoughtfully, and said:

"Putting aside the internal changes, the external changes must be inseparable from the merciful you...... In other words, it is inseparable from you, who have achieved flawless white eyes and shown almost mythical power. ”

"Do you mean that they thought that it was possible for me to learn about their existence from the Hyuga clan after I got the White Eye, and to become their enemy in order to gain the full power of Otsuki Hamura and become their enemy, so they were forced to take this series of actions?"

Kaguya raised her eyebrows, shook her head a little speechlessly, and said, "Then they seem to know me quite well?" ”

"It doesn't necessarily mean that I know you, or maybe I'm very conscious of what I would do if I swapped positions?"

Orochimaru laughed suspiciously, "After all, people can't guess things outside of their own cognition, even when speculating about the enemy with the worst malice, humans usually use what they have done as a reference, and then exaggerate and scandalize it......"

"Ha, if it's really like what Orochimaru said, this distant relative of mine doesn't seem to be a good person," Kaguya put his fingers together, closed his eyes and chuckled, "However, if they really plan to demonstrate against me by moving the moon, then it's a bit ...... The meaning of the lust is in it. ”

"Hmm, does the Mercy think the same way?"

The smile on Orochimaru's face became deeper and colder because of Kaguya's answer.

"If my distant relative is at the height of spring and autumn, and is confident enough in his own strength, then he just needs to wait for me to land on the moon without knowing anything about the environment above the moon, and then use their power to move the moon to block my back road, and finally blast me to the slag with no way out......"

Kaguya Ren opened her eyes and smiled playfully:

"But he didn't do this, obviously as the orthodox successor of Otsuki Kiba Village, but when he realized that I, a descendant of a declining family, might threaten them, he put on a posture of being a great enemy and desperate for me to retreat...... The smell of that bluff is so strong that I can't hide it. ”

"In other words, it's going to be a good opportunity to get in, right?" Orochimaru took a deep breath, like a big snake that stood up after seeing its good prey, and a chilling greed and appetite burst out from his eyes.

"The necessary preparations are still necessary to be done in advance."

Kaguya leaned back casually, folded her hands on her chest, and said unhurriedly to Orochimaru, who was eager to fly to the moon soon:

"Even if I play all my hole cards now, there is a high probability that I will not be able to do such an exaggerated thing as moving the moon...... No matter how big the problem is within the Otsuki clan, as long as they can still use the power of moving the moon, they are still opponents that we must do our best to have a chance to win, but don't take it too lightly, Orochimaru. ”
