Early the next morning, Iwakure's ninja army arrived as scheduled and joined up with the elite team.

Originally, there were only more than ten elite squads, but after joining the ninja army of Yunyin and Iwain, the number of people suddenly swelled to nearly a hundred, and it became a large-scale ninja army.

After the number increased, Kakashi divided the ninja army into several branches and scattered through the forest to search for traces of Orochimaru and Yakushidou.

In the days that followed, the tripartite forces of Orochimaru, the Ninja Village Alliance, and the Akatsuki Organization played a game of hide and seek in the forest of Tanokuni.

Orochimaru is slippery, and often pops up, and immediately hides his whereabouts.

The ninja village coalition has a numerical advantage and can pull a net in the forest to conduct a carpet search, but on the one hand, they are afraid of the members of the Akatsuki organization in the air, and on the other hand, they are worried about the 'filthy soil body' of the Orochimaru and Yakushidou psychic, so the progress is very slow.

The Akatsuki group had air superiority, but their numbers were limited and they couldn't monitor the entire forest.

There was friction between the three sides, but there was never a big war.

Orochimaru, who was hunted down by the Ninja Village Coalition and the Xiao Organization, was bent on maneuvering and didn't love war at all.

As for the Akatsuki organization and the ninja village alliance, both sides were staring at Orochimaru, so they were very restrained and didn't want to waste too much energy on each other.

On the canopy of a large tree.

Kakashi looked around as he compared the improvised map in his hand, his brow furrowed.

At this moment, Sasuke, Yakumo, Hayashio Yuri, Darui, and Kuroto rushed to Kakashi's side from different directions.

"The second detachment found no trace of Orochimaru!"

"The third detachment didn't find it either!"

"Team 4 too—"

"Team 5 too—"

Several people reported at once, and reported the intelligence of each detachment to Kakashi.

Kakashi's brow furrowed even tighter, and he whispered, "Where the hell is he hiding?"

It had been ten hours since Orochimaru last appeared, and the other party seemed to be chasing and hiding with them, showing up every once in a while to show a sense of existence, and then disappearing for a while, leaving them to search in this dense forest.

Sasuke looked up at the black dots in the sky, his face unhappy.

Undoubtedly, the black dot on the horizon is the clay bird of Deidara. Like the Ninja Village Alliance, several members of the Akatsuki organization also rode three clay birds, searching for Orochimaru in a haystack like a needle in the forest.

Yakumo groaned for a moment and said, "Kakashi-sensei, I have a doubt!"

Kakashi nodded, "You say!"

"Where's the Medicine Man?" After a pause, Yakumo was puzzled, "It seems that only Orochimaru has shown up in the past few days, but Yakushi Dou has not shown up once!"

After listening to Yakumo's question, everyone was thoughtful.

Kakashi shook his head and didn't answer Yakumo's question.

Because the doubts in his heart are no less than Yakumo, and compared to Yakumo, he cares more about why Jiraiya, who pursued Orochimaru before, is gone, and he can't be contacted.

Shout...

Bang...

Suddenly, a conspicuous firework exploded in the distant sky.

"It's a flare, I've found Orochimaru!"

Sasuke's face was overjoyed, and he didn't wait for the others, he directly launched the 'Instant Body Technique' and rushed in the direction of the flare.

Seeing this, Kakashi had no choice but to say to the crowd, "Let's go, let's go too!"

In the woods.

Itachi and Loquat Juzo stood on top of the clay birds, confronting Orochimaru on the ground, while on the periphery, several ninjas from Iwakuin Village were nervously watching the battlefield.

The flare just now was secretly sent by them.

Glancing at the flare that exploded in the air, Loquat Juzo said to Itachi, "It's better to fight quickly, or those guys from Ninja Village will rush over!"

Itachi nodded, and then said to Orochimaru, "Hand over the Nine-Tails!

」

Orochimaru smiled sympathetically, "My conditions remain the same, as long as you hand over that person to me, I will give you the Nine-Tails!"

Itachi said lightly, "Then you can only do it."

Orochimaru hurriedly raised his hand and made a gesture of sealing.

Sa...

At this time, Sasuke hurried to the battlefield.

However, his gaze did not linger on Orochimaru's body, but was instantly attracted by the Itachi on the clay bird, and he was only slightly stunned, and then roared, "Itachi, I'm going to kill you!"

Undoubtedly.

Although Sasuke knew that the Xiao organization was also looking for Orochimaru, he didn't know that Itachi was also among them, and now that he encountered Itachi, he immediately threw Orochimaru out of the Nine Heavens Cloud!

Looking at the angry Sasuke, Loquat Shizo joked to the Itachi next to him, "As soon as you come up, shout and shout to kill, Itachi, it seems that you two brothers have a good relationship!"

Itachi's face was expressionless, and his gaze still fell on Orochimaru.

Kakashi, who was leading the crowd, also rushed to the battlefield at this time and shouted to Sasuke, "Sasuke, don't be impulsive!"

At this moment of tension, the big snake pill that was surrounded by the ninja village coalition army and the Xiao organization in the center suddenly 'banged', and turned into the appearance of a medicine master in the white smoke.

"Everyone, I'm gone!"

Yakushidou smiled, and immediately broke through to the gap between the Xiao organization and the ninja village alliance.

Undoubtedly.

From beginning to end, it was Yakushidou who lured the Shinobi Village Coalition and the Akatsuki Organization in the forest to hunt down, not the real Orochimaru.

And this time, he saw an opportunity and deliberately lured Itachi and Sasuke to meet, which stimulated the conflict between the Akatsuki organization and the ninja village coalition.

"This!?"

The ninja village coalition side was all stunned.

Even the experienced Kakashi was surprised, because he really didn't expect Yakushidou to be able to disguise Orochimaru, and the disguise was so vivid, whether it was appearance, demeanor, or chakra fluctuations, smell, etc., it was almost to the point of being fake.

The white eyes of the Hyuga clan, the ninja dogs of the Inuzuka clan, the parasites of the oil girl clan, etc., were all deceived by him.

Akatsuki organizes a party.

Loquat Shizo was also taken aback, and a hint of annoyance at being teased flashed in his eyes, while Itachi was still expressionless and couldn't see any mood swings.

Itachi said, "Let's go!"

"Good!"

Loquat Shizo nodded.

Since it wasn't Orochimaru, they naturally didn't want to stay here and fight to the death with the ninja village coalition army.

"Don't run!"

Seeing that Itachi and Loquat Juzo were leaving, Sasuke couldn't hold it anymore and pounced on it while shouting.

Itachi didn't take care of Sasuke, and directly controlled the clay bird to fly away.

Sasuke followed in hot pursuit.

"Sasuke, stop chasing!"

Kakashi had no choice but to follow.

At this time, there was a split on the side of the ninja village coalition, and Yakumo and Konoha ninja followed Kakashi and chased after Sasuke.

And the ninjas of Iwakuin and Yunyin chased after the Yakushi who had just escaped under the leadership of Black Earth and Darui.

For them, grabbing the medicine man's pocket and torturing the information of the 'immortal arts' is obviously more valuable than fighting with the Xiao organization...
