Starting as the mastermind behind Naruto

Chapter 361 Orochimaru-san, are you having fun? (Fourth update!)

This pharmacist has too many problems.

Black Zetsu felt a little dissatisfied after seeing Kabuto summon Edo Tensei Nagato. It had never intended to revive Nagato, mainly because it was worried that Uehara Naraku would fight the revived Uchiha Madara for the Rinnegan in order to get Nagato.

After hesitating for a moment, Black Zetsu spoke softly, "If Nagato and Madara are resurrected, who will use the Eye of the Moon?"

"Senior Zetsu..."

Uehara Naraku smiled, his gaze slowly falling on Black Zetsu: "Didn't we make a promise before? Wasn't I the one who would execute the Eye of the Moon?"

"..."

Black Zetsu was silent for a while, then suddenly grinned.

Just as Black Zetsu was about to deceive Uehara Naraku, Uehara Naraku shook his head and said, "Alright, I was just joking. Madara-senpai personally devised the Eye of the Moon Plan. If he were to carry it out, it would be as if he had fulfilled his wish!"

Uehara Naraku gazed at the reanimated Nagato beside Yakushi Kabuto and murmured, "I just want a world where Nagato-sama and Konan-sensei can both live, a world without war, a world where there is only peace and tranquility forever..."

"Hehehehe..."

Black Zetsu nodded menacingly and said, "Don't worry, Naraku, as long as the Eye of the Moon Plan succeeds, the world of your dreams will definitely come true!"

They were all discussing how to divide the spoils after Orochimaru's death.

Within the Six Red Yang Formation, Orochimaru actually held a huge advantage. Even the arrival of Tsunade and the Fourth Raikage, A, did not change the situation on the battlefield.

"I'll go and take care of Lord Nagato."

Uehara Naraku glanced at Black Zetsu and said softly, "Zetsu-senpai, I'll leave this place to you for now. I'll join the battle again after Orochimaru dispels the Six Red Yang Formation!"

"it is good."

Black Zetsu nodded with a gloomy face and looked at the battle within the Six Red Yang Formation. If all else failed, then they would have to find a way to get Uchiha Madara to join the battle as well!

the other side.

Uehara Naraku's wings fluttered slightly, and he landed in front of Nagato, his eyes flickering slightly: "How is it? Happy to be back in the mortal world?"

"..."

Nagato shook his head helplessly, looked at Uehara Naraku and sighed, "Uehara, I never imagined that when we meet again, it will be like this. Isn't Konan on the battlefield?"

"no."

Uehara Naraku opened his palm and explained in a low voice, "This war is extremely dangerous. I myself am not confident of survival, so naturally I will not bring Konan-sensei out..."

"But…"

Nagato frowned slightly, looking at Uehara Naraku with a puzzled expression, and said in a deep voice, "If you were to die on the battlefield, leaving only Konan..."

"It's alright."

Uehara Naraku shook his head, slowly extended his palm, and said softly, "Lord Nagato, I hope that no matter what I do next, you will forgive me."

"hehe…"

A smile appeared on Nagato's face. He calmly nodded and said, "I told you before, when you were sixteen, that no matter what you did, I would help you, and I would not blame you."

"That's good."

Uehara Naraku gave Nagato a meaningful look.

The next moment, a gust of wind struck Nagato's body!

Uehara Naraku's figure suddenly shattered Nagato's impure body with a single blow, and landed in front of Yakushi Kabuto, saying softly, "You can tell him the whole truth now. Prepare to put him into the Kamui dimension once Lord Nagato is resurrected."

"…clear."

Kabuto calmly pushed up his glasses.

Uehara Naraku calmly observed Yakushi Kabuto, lowering his voice: "Did you leave a backup plan in Orochimaru's body?"

"I stayed."

Kabuto slowly closed his hands and whispered, "However, the incantation I left inside his body is hidden within those Hashirama cells, so it can't be of any use to Lord Orochimaru in this state for the time being..."

"Just the body?"

Uehara Naraku frowned and said in a low voice, "I thought you were going to do something to his soul... It seems your actions are not very useful for now."

"No, even souls can take action."

Kabuto Yakushi adjusted his glasses, sighed, and said, "I've already spotted Mitarashi Anko. She carries Lord Orochimaru's Heavenly Curse Mark..."

Orochimaru's resurrection plan is in their hands. No matter what Orochimaru wants to do in the future, he will never give up his last resort.

"Well done."

Uehara Naraku nodded, watching the battle within the Six Red Sun Formation in the distance, and said softly, "If Black Zetsu can't control Orochimaru, then it'll be your turn!"

"Yes, sir."

Kabuto Yakushi's body showed no unusual movement.

After all, Orochimaru is good at taking over other people's bodies, and Black Zetsu is good at controlling other people's bodies. What if the two of them end up evenly matched?

After a brief half-minute exchange, and seeing that Nagato's body was about to fully recover, Uehara Naraku vanished in front of Yakushi Kabuto in an instant. He was only doing this to complete Nagato's mission and to prepare Yakushi Kabuto for Nagato's impending resurrection.

After Uehara Naraku left, Nagato's body had recovered, but his face turned extremely pale, and his brows were furrowed tightly.

"Kabuto Yakushi, what's going on?"

"As you can see."

Kabuto adjusted his glasses and explained in a low voice, "Everything right now is under the master's orders, and everything is under the master's control."

"..."

Nagato fell into an eerie silence.

At that moment, he understood who the "master" Yakushi Kabuto was referring to was.

After a long silence, Nagato hesitantly asked, "You said everything is under Uehara's control, but what exactly is Uehara manipulating? The war that's happening now..."

"Everything, everything."

Kabuto's gaze gradually hardened.

The next moment, Kabuto Yakushi looked at Nagato, who was about to turn around and ask Uehara Naraku for clarification, and suddenly raised his finger!

Nagato's movements suddenly stopped, and his will vanished.

"well…"

Kabuto shook his head, looked at Nagato, and sighed, "What enviable good fortune... While others are struggling to find the path to victory, you've already stood at the finish line from the very beginning."

Inside the Six Red Yang Formation.

The battle situation remains unchanged.

Because Orochimaru knows very well how to use his advantages.

Most importantly, Orochimaru was very familiar with the enemies present. He had even fought against most of them, especially Jiraiya, one of the main combatants!

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

Orochimaru suddenly opened his mouth and spewed out a gust of wind!

This ninjutsu, which can only be described as a C-rank, became exceptionally terrifying with the enhancement of the Six Paths Chakra, instantly forcing everyone in front of it to retreat!

At the same time, a Truth-Seeking Ball suddenly shot towards Jiraiya's location!

Fortunately, the cells in the Fourth Raikage's body were highly activated, and he quickly grabbed Jiraiya's figure and instantly jumped to another location, dodging the Truth-Seeking Ball attack!

Throughout this battle, the Fourth Raikage was constantly doing this.

Whenever an attack was unavoidable or unseen by others, it was always the Fourth Raikage, A, who used his incredibly fast Body Flicker Technique to save the day.

Tsunade glanced at the Fourth Raikage with concern: "Moving at such high speed, your body can't handle it, can it?"

"Raikage, let me finish this!"

Naruto Uzumaki, clad in a golden chakra cloak and with Sage Mode pupils still visible in his eyes, continued in a deep voice, "In this battle, we cannot afford to make even the slightest mistake!"

"No…"

The Fourth Raikage glanced at everyone present, shook his head, and said in a deep voice, "Right now, everything must prioritize the safety of Jiraiya and Naruto. It doesn't matter if Tsunade and I sacrifice ourselves..."

Neither the Fourth Raikage nor Tsunade could effectively harm Orochimaru. Even Tsunade, a medical ninja, couldn't play a significant role for the time being... They had to give Naruto and Jiraiya the chance to survive!

They are the only hope to defeat Orochimaru!

Just as the Fourth Raikage began to speak, Orochimaru appeared beside him, wielding the Truth-Seeking Ball black sword with unbridled abandon!

"Are you really that willing to sacrifice yourself?"

Orochimaru's Truth-Seeking Ball Black Sword was about to slash across the Fourth Raikage's throat. One strike from the Truth-Seeking Ball Black Sword would reduce the Fourth Raikage's neck to nothingness!

Just at the most dangerous moment, a giant golden chakra hand suddenly grabbed the Fourth Raikage's back and dragged him back!

Even so, it's too late!

Orochimaru's Truth-Seeking Ball black sword grazed the Fourth Raikage's arm, suddenly severing half of his arm, and the severed part of the arm was reduced to nothingness by the black sword!

"Raikage!"

"Lord Raikage!"

"Uncle Raikage!"

Everyone stared in fear and unease at the wound on the Fourth Raikage's hand, because they all knew very well what an arm meant to a ninja.

Especially the Fourth Raikage, a ninja who primarily uses taijutsu!

"Stop arguing!"

The Fourth Raikage coldly stopped everyone, and said in a deep voice, "I've already said, Tsunade and I are among those who can be sacrificed... Don't worry, it's just an arm..."

"..."

Everyone fell silent.

A serious expression flashed across Naruto's face. He transformed once more into a giant golden fox demon and shouted, "Perverted Sage! You cover me! I'll launch the attack!"

"good!"

Jiraiya nodded silently.

Just as these people were struggling to hold on, someone punched the Six Red Sun Formation. Cracks appeared on the barrier of the Red Sun Formation, and then the entire Six Red Sun Formation collapsed into fragments and disappeared into the air!

Uehara Naraku rubbed his palms as he appeared above Orochimaru, tilting his head slightly: "Orochimaru-san, having fun?"

There will be three more updates!
