Avengers of the Whirlpool Family.

Chapter 266 Meeting and Target

The nine tailed beasts were separated from the ten tails.

This is a thousand-year-old secret known only to Obito in the current ninja world, excluding the special time traveler Menma.

As the spokesperson after Uchiha Madara's death.

It can be said that Madara knows a lot.

Obito knows just that much.

Unlike Nagato who was purely deceived and used, the relationship between Obito and Madara is quite complicated. Except for the case of Nohara Rin, where Madara deliberately tricked Obito and created Nohara Rin's death to make Obito fall completely into darkness, Obito was fully involved in the rest of the things.

Apart from this point, in other aspects, Madara did not hide anything from Obito. Madara really hoped that Obito could help him realize the Moon Eye Project, so naturally he needed to tell Obito all the information he had learned, although these things were just the result of Black Zetsu's deliberate guidance.

But at least the part involving the Ten-Tails was indeed true. Obito was not worried about the others, but he had to be cautious about Orochimaru. Even though the probability was very low, what if Orochimaru really figured out the relationship between the nine tailed beasts! ?
That would be a huge trouble.

"That shouldn't be the case, right? Without any supporting information, how could that guy possibly go in that direction?"

When Black Zetsu heard Obito's words, he couldn't help but feel a jump in his heart.

Now the plan has reached the final preparation stage. As long as Akatsuki and Nagato have sorted out everything, they can launch the operation to capture the tailed beasts.

The more it comes to this critical juncture.

Black Zetsu doesn't want to see any accidents happen.

Just like when Obito lost his eye before, when it was almost certain that Menma didn't know the true value of that eye and would definitely waste it, Black Zetsu also recognized that Obito would not act rashly and expose himself and others.

If Orochimaru really figures out the connection between the nine tailed beasts.

That would be a big trouble for them.

"Hmph, that's hard to say. Orochimaru just likes to research all kinds of things, such as eternal life and supreme power. His goal has always been so firm and unchanging. The tailed beasts are the most special existences in the ninja world today, so why wouldn't he study them? And with this guy's research ability, if he really adds a few more tailed beasts as research materials, can you guarantee that there won't be any problems? "

Obito said with a snort.

From a general perspective, Orochimaru's personal strength is already very strong. Even though he seemed to be killed instantly by Itachi at the beginning, that was because Orochimaru was a little careless at the beginning and underestimated Itachi's strength. Secondly, it was also because of the side effects of the Living Corpse Reincarnation Technique, which made Orochimaru's mental power weaker than the normal Kage level, intensifying the damage of the illusion to him, not to mention the illusion of the Mangekyō Sharingan level!

Being hit hard is only natural.

This can be seen from the fact that Orochimaru was severely injured by Itachi later, but was still able to retreat smoothly.

It couldn't be that Itachi was showing mercy and was unwilling to kill Orochimaru, right?
This guy is a crazy fellow who is willing to kill his clan members for the peace of Konoha. Orochimaru is also the biggest traitor in the Hidden Leaf Village. If there is a chance, Itachi will definitely kill Orochimaru!
In addition, from the confrontation between Jiraiya, Tsunade and Orochimaru, it can also be seen that Orochimaru's personal strength is indeed strong enough.

The overall level is considered a strong shadow, which is definitely not an exaggeration!
Such a guy.

It's easy to make people feel intimidated.

Not to mention that Orochimaru's strongest aspect lies in his scientific research ability.

The art of reincarnation without corpse.

The art of reincarnation from dirty soil.

It is the best reflection of Orochimaru's scientific research ability. The former was researched by Orochimaru alone, and although the latter was developed by Senju Tobirama, Orochimaru was the one who truly developed it. Otherwise, according to the original version of the Impure World Reincarnation technique, the summoned ninja would only have one or two percent of the strength of his peak period.

How could they be like the 70% to 80% of the latter, or even Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, whose strength is almost comparable to their peak period!

So, based on this.

Obito had every reason to doubt Orochimaru.

"this..."

Obito said so.

Black Zetsu wasn't sure anymore.

"Go all out to search for Orochimaru's location. We can no longer leave Orochimaru alone. Once the exact location is determined, have Nagato immediately send Sasori and Deidara to deal with it. If necessary, have Nagato personally take action to eliminate this hidden danger of Orochimaru!"

Obito said grimly.

When Orochimaru defected from the organization in the past, an order to hunt him down was also issued.

But neither Obito nor Nagato really took it to heart. If they could kill, they would kill. If they couldn't, then forget it. There was no need to really care. Everything still had to be based on the organization's plan. But now it is different.

Orochimaru's research and his existence could potentially threaten the organization, or more precisely, Obito's plans.

Even though it is only in the suspicion stage at present, as long as there is any sign, Orochimaru must eliminate it as soon as possible.

Of course, Obito didn't have too many doubts about Menma. In his opinion, he was just a child filled with hatred. How could he be a threat? All this must be led by Orochimaru!
As long as Orochimaru is eliminated, everything will be fine.

"Okay, I understand. I will further mobilize my forces to search for Orochimaru's location. I will go and inform Nagato now."

Black Zetsu nodded heavily.

Then it immediately sank below the ground and disappeared.

"Buzz!"

Obito himself also immediately activated the Kamui technique.

After a while, the surrounding space was distorted.

My body also blended into it and left.

The situation had become a little delicate, making it impossible for Obito to continue staying here and conducting his research.

He has to go and take control of it himself.

Necessary moments.

Even if there is a risk of being exposed, we must plan ahead!

Project Moon Eye.

Above all else!!!
Orochimaru took the blame perfectly.

This is an inevitable result evolved from multiple coincidences.

If Menma knew about this, he would definitely be very happy. This was what he wanted and the reason why he chose to stay with Orochimaru in the first place. No matter how to say it, he was only 13 years old in this life. In the eyes of outsiders, he was a kid who was still wet behind the ears. How could he have a thorough plan?
Wasn't everything planned and arranged by Orochimaru?

It should be said that this is the consensus in the ninja world today regarding the relationship between Menma and Orochimaru. The only exception is Ohnoki, who has had direct contact with Menma. However, this old man simply thinks that Orochimaru did not deceive Menma.

In fact, Menma should still be influenced by Orochimaru, or to be more precise, he should be under the leadership of Orochimaru.

This can't be blamed on Ōnoki.

After all, how could you possibly make people believe that a boy who was only 12 or 3 years old could have such mature thoughts and such a careful plan! ?

When Orochimaru told Kabuto Yakushi that he wanted to dissect Menma, he was not joking. Of course, all this required Orochimaru's cooperation. In fact, Orochimaru himself was also happy to do so.

Orochimaru had always had a hunch.

His dream and his future are destined to be realized in Menma.

From this perspective, Orochimaru is truly one of the rare pure people in the ninja world, and he has never changed his original intention over the decades.

So what if I take the blame for Menma?!
Compared with my own ambitions, everything seems so insignificant.

This is also the biggest reason why Menma firmly chooses Orochimaru. By temporarily diverting attention, he can gain precious time.

Menma took Suigetsu, Karin and others and headed non-stop towards the northern part of the Land of Grass, after spending most of the day.

Finally arrived at the agreed destination.

"Search nearby to see where the mark is!"

After Menma looked around, he turned around and gave orders to the other ordinary Taki-nins around him. "Yes, Master Menma!"

After these Taki ninjas responded in sync, they leaped up and spread out to search.

Just like revealing his true identity in front of Ajun before.

After deciding to plan ahead.

Menma also decided to take the initiative and announce his identity in front of the Taki-nin of the Barrier Class. After all, this operation requires some Taki-nin to perform auxiliary tasks, and his identity will definitely be exposed at that time.

Of course, when selecting personnel, it is necessary to choose those who have already passed the preliminary screening, and then it must be in the presence of Shibuki. Otherwise, even if these Taki ninjas have initially recognized and believed in Menma, the exposure of their private identities will create a sense of "rebellion".

You can't do such stupid things!

You can be a little eager for quick success, but you must never do anything stupid.

"Master Menma, the imprint has been found, and the coordinates are determined to be at the twelve o'clock position!"

Not long after, a short-haired male Taki ninja found the corresponding mark and came to report.

"Very well, let's go!"

The exact coordinates determined.

"whoosh"

The group of people flew out again.

Only after walking for more than twenty minutes.

Menma's vast perception was able to detect a familiar chakra.

"Oh?"

A slightly raised brow.

"boom!"

A figure sliding down.

in a given location.

A burly, cold-faced middle-aged man came into the sight of Menma and the others.

"Haha, it's Wuwei-san who came here in person. I thought Wuwei-san would choose to hold back."

Menma looked at the man in front of him with a smile and spoke softly.

And this middle-aged man is Menma's most important partner in this plan, the senior ninja of Kusagakure Village and the current person in charge of Kizuna Castle - Wuwei.

"Uzumaki Menma, stop talking nonsense. Is what you said before true? If not, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Wuwei looked at Menma coldly.

This is not a polite remark at all.

Especially the cold and chilly atmosphere that permeated the air.

"!?"

"Damn it!"

"伱!"

In the back, the faces of Karin and others changed, especially the Taki ninjas who looked at Wuwei with angry expressions.

It seemed as if he was about to take action.

Menma also waved his hand to stop the Taki ninjas from saying anything further.

"Don't worry, Wuwei-san. What I, Uzumaki Menma, said will definitely come true. It's just a box of bliss. I will definitely open it. But I need to tell you in advance that this is not a so-called wishing machine. You want to see your son, but I can't give a 100% guarantee. At most, I am only half sure."

Menma's face straightened and he spoke in a slightly solemn tone.

Inaction.

As the leader of the Kusagakure Village, he is currently the key leader of the 'City Faction' and has a high reputation among quite a few Kusagakure ninjas.

There are even many people who think that Wuwei is very suitable to be the next leader of the Kusagakure Village.

And judging from the plot of the original novel, this seemingly cold man actually has a very soft side in his heart.

This side is reflected in the way he treats his son, Wuque!

Menma chose to start from Wuwei because he saw this point clearly.

As long as his plan goes smoothly, Menma can control the Kusagakure Village at will, but if something goes wrong in one link, Menma will have to take more radical and bloody measures.

That is also the last resort!

"Ku Lama, I'm betting everything on you this time!"

While Menma was looking at Wuwei, he was thinking secretly in his heart.

"Hmph, I've already said it, isn't it just the Box of Bliss? For me, transforming the energy inside is no problem at all, as long as that kid can stick to his original intention. However, I don't think that a mere ordinary human can withstand the erosion of the Box of Bliss! Even if it is just an ordinary toy of this old man."

Inside Menma's body.

This was exactly what Menma was deliberately saying.

Kyuubi also snorted coldly, and spoke in a very disdainful tone.

"Well, I'll trouble you then, Jiu Lama. Whether it will succeed or not depends on the boy's luck."

It was completely impossible for Wuwei to hear the conversation between Menma and Kyuubi.

When hearing what Menma said.

His face became increasingly tense.

"Half sure? That's enough!"

After staring at Menma for several seconds with those eyes that looked extremely fierce, he slowly nodded and spoke softly.

"As long as you can complete the agreed content, I will definitely assist you with all my strength!"

"It's settled then, Wuwei-san."

Menma said with a slight smile.
