After my triumphs and defeats, I created multiple aliases across countless worlds.

It only exploded once, and then it was subdued by Bai Ye's illusion?

The scene before them was originally intended to test Bai Ye's moves.

As it turns out, Deidara was so useless that he didn't even manage to find out anything from the probe.

"That's really impressive... the Sharingan..."

A flicker of excitement flashed in Orochimaru's eyes, and at the same time, his desire for the Sharingan reached its peak.

He clearly liked this ability very much; he could trap someone in an illusion with just a glance.

As expected of the Uchiha clan!

Back when he was in Konoha, Orochimaru did enjoy studying the Sharingan, but he hadn't reached the point of obsession.

However, after seeing Itachi Uchiha during an observation, Orochimaru became completely focused on the Sharingan.

So... the Uchiha bloodstains do indeed qualify them as the number one clan in the ninja world.

Now, after seeing Byakuya defeat Deidara in a single move.

It even changed Orochimaru's understanding; he never knew the Sharingan could be so powerful.

At the same time, he also discovered a problem: Byakuya was more skilled at using the Sharingan than any Uchiha he had ever encountered before.

Back when he was still in Konoha, Orochimaru did work with other Uchiha clan ninjas.

But they are nowhere near Byakuya's level. They are both only three-tomoe, but Byakuya can instantly trap someone who doesn't seem weak in an illusion.

"The Mangekyou Sharingan hasn't been activated yet, could it be... that activating the Mangekyou Sharingan can enhance the power of the three tomoe?!"

Orochimaru pondered for a moment and began to calculate whether his guess was correct.

If that's the case, then is the Mangekyou Sharingan truly the end point of its evolution?

If it evolves again, will things be different again?

According to historical records, Madara Uchiha lost his sight during his battle with Hashirama Senju, but later regained it.

This inevitably piqued Orochimaru's curiosity. What exactly happened to him? The secret between the Uchiha and Senju clans seemed to be found in Byakuya!

only...

His weakness is genjutsu, and Byakuya's Sharingan is particularly adept at genjutsu. If he were to attack Byakuya, he probably wouldn't fare well.

But he was also somewhat unwilling to give up just like that.

Chapter 112 - Akatsuki Organization: Nine out of nine, come join the raid!

On one hand, there was a desire to conduct research, and on the other hand, there was a fear of Bai Ye's restraint towards him.

Orochimaru knew very well that his soul was his weakest point.

On the contrary, the Uchiha clan is most skilled in genjutsu (illusionary techniques).

Whether one can resist the Sharingan's genjutsu is a question.

Fortunately, Orochimaru was actually quite conflicted at this point.

If he really wants to make a move, he must find a suitable opportunity.

Otherwise, once they make a move against Bai Ye, there will be no turning back.

White Night was personally invited by Payne, and he also had the Kaleidoscope.

That's not like Kakuzu, where you can just kill him directly.

His fight with Byakuya was tantamount to a direct betrayal of the Akatsuki organization, meaning he would definitely not be able to stay in the Akatsuki afterward.

However, if he were to team up with Bai Ye every day...

If he couldn't take action against Byakuya to obtain and study the Sharingan, he certainly wouldn't be able to resist.

Orochimaru at this time is not the Orochimaru of the Fourth Shinobi World War.

"Looks like it's over."

Just as Orochimaru was pondering, Konan's voice interrupted his thoughts, pulling him back to reality.

Looking over, Deidara had already come to his senses, but the battle was over. Bound, Deidara felt a sense of humiliation.

This is the first time in all these years that I've been instantly defeated.

He was defeated in just one move.

At this moment, he felt only humiliation and resentment, not only towards Byakuya but also towards the Uchiha clan.

He secretly vowed to himself that he must train himself and he would definitely break the Uchiha clan's restraining relationship with him!

"You lost, so you've joined the Akatsuki, right?"

Bai Ye looked at Deidara, whose face was still full of resentment at being easily defeated by someone who was not much different from himself.

He was certainly indignant, but as Bai Ye said, if he was defeated, then he was defeated.

I will defeat you someday!

Deidara said, then stood up and prepared to leave with Byakuya.

It wasn't because of any promises made beforehand, but because he was thinking that since he had been defeated, staying in Iwagakure would just mean being left in this monastery anyway.

He wanted to go out and let others see his art.

At the same time, he also knew that staying here would probably not allow him to take revenge on Bai Ye.

Only by going out into the world can one improve their strength.

I can't stay here and work in isolation forever.

After Bai Ye extended the invitation, he did not refuse, believing that joining the Akatsuki organization would provide an opportunity to defeat Bai Ye.

"Okay, let's go."

Seeing this, Bai Ye nodded. Since Deidara had agreed, he turned to look at Xiao Nan, who nodded slightly.

"Kid, only eternity is art. What you just did doesn't even deserve to be called art!"

"What?! You're saying mine doesn't deserve to be called art? Are you here to cause trouble? Do you even know what art is? Art is that explosive moment!!"

Deidara looked at the little old man in front of him and instantly became furious.

Someone said that everything he had done before was not art, as soon as he joined the organization.

They start by teaching themselves what art is.

Is he qualified?

"Heh, so-called art is something that exists forever, while what kind of art is yours that disappears in an instant?"

Scorpion said calmly, something he had actually wanted to say before.

However, because Byakuya was fighting Deidara, he held back.

Now, after Deidara's battle with Byakuya ended and the latter joined the Akatsuki organization.

At this moment, Scorpion also began to lecture on art at a long and rambling pace.

In his view, Deidara had just been desecrating art.

For someone who doesn't understand art at all, art is simply too superficial in their comprehension.

"You idiot, do you even understand art? You want to fight, don't you?"

"Sure, this is a good opportunity to teach you what art is!"

Scorpion was silent for a moment, then nodded repeatedly.

That just so happens that he had the same idea.

Teach Deidara what true art really is.

"Can we even argue about this?"

White Zetsu glanced at Black Zetsu with a strange look.

He hadn't expected that they could even argue about this.

"Shut up, you idiot! This is a matter of principle!"

Black Zetsu's voice was hoarse, a hint of contempt flashing in his eyes.

White Zetsu, that simple-minded guy, wouldn't understand.

Come to think of it, the person I found this time seems to be a surprisingly good match.

The immortal duo, Kakuzu and Hidan, happen to have immortality as their special ability.

Currently, both Sasori and Deidara have an extraordinary passion for art, but they have some different views on it.
