I travel through thousands of worlds at the same time

If it were an ordinary creature, unless it was a lizard, cockroach or other creature with strong survival ability, if it was hit in the vital parts of the head like this, it would most likely suffer extremely serious sequelae. However, in the case of the three-tailed Isobu, as one of the nine tailed beasts in the world of Naruto, this kind of injury would not kill it.

When the Lava Colossus was beating the Three-tailed Isobuki madly, some minor injuries on its head actually showed signs of improvement. If there were no Lava Colossus and other enemies, the Three-tailed Isobuki would even be able to absorb external chakra and recover from its injuries in a short period of time. The reason is that it and the other tailed beasts are energy creatures composed of chakra, and they have part of the essence of the Ten-tailed Beast, so it can be said that they are very difficult to kill.

At least, these ninjas in the Naruto world cannot really kill a tailed beast unless they reach the level of the Sage of Six Paths. Even if they use a sealing technique to seal the tailed beast, the tailed beast, which is almost immortal, can still sleep and wait for the day to break the seal, not to mention trivial matters like being injured.

Therefore, through Li Mo's guidance, Mei Terumi, who knew a lot of secret knowledge about the tailed beasts, did not consider fighting a protracted battle with the three-tailed beast Isofu, otherwise even a Kage-level powerhouse might be dragged to death by the opponent. Even if she successfully broke through to the Kage-level stage with the help of the [Seed of the Fiery Sun], and even her comprehensive strength was considered a strong one in the Kage-level sequence, but if she rashly used her own weakness to attack the enemy's strength, that kind of stupid thing was really not something Mei Terumi would like to see. It would be better for her to give full play to the power advantage of her [Lava Colossus] that she is best at.

As Mei Terumi thought of something, the lava giant began to beat the Three-tailed Isobu madly. The huge lava fist like a battering ram was extremely terrifying when it fell down, and even the hard shell of the Three-tailed Isobu was smashed with holes. Even if the injured and violent Three-tailed Isobu used its three long tails like whips to smash the lava giant, the lava giant didn't pay any attention to it at all, and it punched the Three-tailed Isobu madly, one powerful punch after another, making the Three-tailed Isobu scream, which made the Mist Ninjas watching from afar very excited.

Are you talking about Sanwei Isobu's counterattack?

Unfortunately, the three whip-like tails of the three-tailed Isofu smashed on the lava colossus, but failed to shake the lava colossus that was firmly glued to the ground. On the contrary, the lava colossus was controlled by Mei Terumi and took advantage of the situation to grab one of the tails and smashed the three-tailed Isofu so hard that he was unable to cope. Moreover, when he got close to the lava colossus, he was constantly burned by the high temperature of the opponent's body and the lava ground that had already appeared. The three-tailed Isofu was feeling more and more uncomfortable, and even if he fought back, he could not hurt the lava colossus that was attacking madly.

After all, that [Lava Colossus] is not just a showpiece. Li Mo's advice to Mei Terumi is to the point. Except for Mei Terumi, the controller, all other damages of this Lava Colossus can be repaired with chakra. In a sense, it is based on the essence of [Susanoo] and the tailed beasts. Its defense and recovery abilities are outstanding. It has no problem taking a few attacks from the three-tailed Isofuk.

When the lava colossus swung its punches violently, the three-tailed Isobu was dizzy. Terumi Mei controlled the lava colossus and took advantage of the victory. She easily threw the three-tailed Isobu over her shoulder and smashed it to the ground, almost causing a small earthquake!

[The consciousness of the three-tailed Isobu is slow. Is it the consciousness of the Fourth Mizukage himself? Unfortunately, it is useless...]

When she saw Sanwei Iso lying on his back with the sky, trying to turn over with the support of his tail, but suddenly he seemed to lose consciousness and fell back, Mei Terumi controlled the lava colossus without hesitation and punched him hard, she began to think in her mind.

For Mei Terumi, when she knew that the Fourth Mizukage Yagura was controlled by the enemy with illusion, Li Mo told her not to worry too much. The illusion cast by the opponent's Mangekyō Sharingan was not enough to completely control a perfect Jinchūriki. In fact, if she fought with the opponent, she could win without much effort. But looking at the actual battle situation now, what Li Mo said is obviously true. The Fourth Mizukage Yagura was unable to exert his full strength at all.

——In fact, Li Mo's guess was completely correct. As the battle progressed, the Fourth Mizukage Yagura showed some signs of waking up from the illusion. Although the illusion ability of the Mangekyō Sharingan was powerful, it was impossible to control a perfect Jinchūriki all the time. Uchiha Obito's Mangekyō Sharingan could not perform other illusions of the gods. He even relied on Uchiha Madara's illusion before his death to successfully control the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, which allowed him to continue to control the opponent with the Mangekyō Sharingan later, but he could not let him exert his true strength to fight.

Otherwise, with Uchiha Obito's strength of being the last in the class in Konoha Village, and with only one Mangekyō Sharingan left, he was still able to cast illusions and control a perfect Jinchūriki. His qualifications were probably stronger than Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui. Unfortunately, Uchiha Obito was not that strong, otherwise he would not have been the last in the class but a super genius. What's more, the Fourth Mizukage Yagura's own consciousness was still struggling.

In this way, the balance of victory directly tipped towards Mei Terumi. The lava colossus she controlled once again knocked the three-tailed Isobu to the ground, and when she was about to give him a fatal blow, she found that the magatama illusion in the three-tailed Isobu's eyes disappeared. Obviously, the Fourth Mizukage Yagura successfully broke free from the illusion!

"Then please go ahead, Mizukage-sama~!"

Seeing that the three-tailed Isobu had already escaped from the control of the illusion and had obviously regained clarity, the beautiful eyes of Terumi Mei showed no sadness or joy, and she whispered words. Perhaps only the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, who had just escaped from the illusion of the Mangekyō Sharingan, could hear what Terumi Mei said, but he no longer had the strength to fight back.

It's not that Mei Terumi must kill the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, but even if the Fourth Mizukage Yagura was controlled by the enemy's Mangekyō Sharingan illusion, causing the implementation of the Blood Mist Strategy and the deaths of a large number of Mist Ninjas in internal strife, the Fourth Mizukage Yagura was actually controlled by the enemy's illusion. Naturally, he would have to bear the consequences, and the ending would be doomed to be no good. Moreover, Mei Terumi also vaguely guessed that Li Mo asked her to take action without hesitation in order to allow her to eliminate all obstacles and successfully become the Fifth Mizukage.

As soon as Mei Terumi thought of something, the lava giant stretched out its hand and turned into a lava sword, which directly pierced through the body of the three-tailed Isobuki. The three-tailed Isobuki, who suffered this fatal blow, let out a mournful cry and finally turned into a point of light. The blow it received was borne by the Fourth Mizukage Yagura. The Fourth Mizukage Yagura, who had just escaped from the control of the Mangekyō Sharingan illusion, was declared dead before he could utter his last words.

When the three-tailed Isobu disappeared completely, leaving behind the body of the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, Mei Terumi lifted the [Lava Colossus] technique, and looking at the appearing Mei Terumi and the fallen Fourth Mizukage, all the ninjas of the Mist cheered!

Chapter 39: Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu are trapped

At the same time when Mei Terumi won, not far from the Mist Village, a figure wearing a one-eyed whirlpool mask and a fire cloud robe looked at the Mist Village with a cold snort and left directly. Following him was a black and white monster in the shape of a pitcher plant and wearing a fire cloud robe.

Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu!

The two people who fit these two images are the two members of the Akatsuki organization in the original anime of "Naruto". One is obviously a deceived Uchiha who is in the late stage of mental illness, and the other is a black Zetsu with multiple layers of disguise.

There is no doubt that Uchiha Obito was able to feel that he used the illusion of the Mangekyō Sharingan to barely control the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, whose consciousness was destroyed by Uchiha Madara's illusion. However, except for the period just after the Third Ninja World War and against the Mizunotsuki clan and the Kizuki clan, Uchiha Obito never stayed in the Water Country at all. He still had the newly established Akatsuki organization and his own secret base to take care of.

Even when he was in the Land of Water, Uchiha Obito's main focus was on suppressing the consciousness of the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, and on brutally killing and retaliating against the Mist Ninja who caused the death of his beloved. He would never do things like managing the Mist Village. He even took advantage of the opportunity to control the Fourth Mizukage Yagura to continuously draw blood from the Mist Village to replenish his own pockets. At other times, Uchiha Obito was busy with his own major events and had no time to take care of the mess in the Mist Village.

However, when he discovered that the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, who was under the control of the illusion, showed signs of breaking free from the control of the illusion, Uchiha Obito, who hurried to the outside of the Mist Village, had no intention of stepping into the village again. Even after hearing Black Zetsu tell the hidden White Zetsu about the information about the Mist Village that he had collected, he had no intention of showing up again and turned around and left the village.

Anyone can see that Uchiha Obito is not planning to go to the Mist Village again, which means that he doesn't want to fight against the Mist Village at this time. Even if there is only one Kage-level strongman and many elite Mist ninjas left, the Mist Village should not be underestimated!

"Don't you want to try and see if you can control the new generation of Mizukage?"

As Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu left, Black Zetsu, who was temporarily disguising himself as [Black and White Zetsu], looked at Uchiha Obito walking in front of him and asked in a low voice. He knew the character of the chess piece he had instigated Uchiha Madara to choose, and naturally knew the other party's psychological weaknesses and how to induce him, but he still had to pretend not to understand on the surface and at the same time spy on the other party's current psychological state.

"The Mist Village has discovered something wrong. It is impossible to control the new generation of Mizukage, and we have more important things to do..."

In response to Black Zetsu's question, Uchiha Obito appeared calm on the surface, but he was muttering in his heart that if he could control the new generation of Mizukage, he wouldn't have to let Uchiha Madara use his last bit of strength to destroy the consciousness of the Fourth Mizukage Yagura before he could use a Mangekyō Sharingan to cast illusions and barely control the actions of this perfect Jinchūriki.

In fact, without the Mangekyō Sharingan's spatial eye technique [Kamui], and only relying on the Mangekyō Sharingan to cast illusions, and the few Wood Release Ninjutsu he could perform, his overall strength was at most at the level of an elite jonin and quasi-shadow. For example, when he was plotting against his teacher Namikaze Minato, he almost failed and escaped only by relying on the ability of [Kamui]. Then he used the cheating method of releasing the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki, allowing his teacher Namikaze Minato to finally seal the Nine-Tails and die of exhaustion.

In other words, Uchiha Obito is now unable to rely on his own strength to use illusion to control any Kage-level strongman, let alone directly facing a Kage-level strongman who killed the Fourth Mizukage Yagura and a group of elite Mist Ninjas. If someone discovers the details of his Mangekyō Sharingan pupil technique [Kamui], he will probably have to flee immediately, otherwise being killed by a powerful enemy would be a betrayal of his greatest wish.

After hearing Uchiha Obito's righteous nonsense, Black Zetsu did not point it out but followed him silently. However, before they left the territory of the Water Country and when they were far away from the Mist Village, they were directly intercepted by Li Mo!

……

"Hey, you two, can you please stay for a cup of tea~!"

Li Mo looked at Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu with a smile, as if he was greeting old acquaintances, however Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu's faces sank, and neither of them noticed anything until they saw Li Mo.

This is definitely a very novel experience for a ninja. You know, a ninja is a high-attack, high-speed, and fragile combat profession, and detecting enemy intelligence is the top priority (at least before the Fourth Ninja World War, before those powerful warriors showed up). Unless you are a carefree guy like Uzumaki Naruto, a ninja's observation ability is very good. A ninja who has experienced the baptism of blood and fire will pay more attention to the surrounding environment.

However, before hearing Li Mo's voice, Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu did not notice that someone was standing in front of them. Even now, when they saw Li Mo, they did not notice anything unusual. They even turned their heads and could not detect any trace of the other party at all. What the hell is going on?

"..."

Seeing Li Mo's smiling expression, Uchiha Obito's face became gloomy and looked particularly ugly. He couldn't help but look at Black Zetsu beside him. The only eye that was revealed showed obvious dissatisfaction and doubt.

Black Zetsu actually felt equally aggrieved towards Uchiha Obito's dissatisfaction and doubt. Like the White Zetsu, he could not feel Li Mo's presence.

Not to mention those ordinary White Zetsu whose combat power is probably the same as that of ordinary Chunin except for the [Ephemerida Jutsu]. This product created by Kaguya Otsutsuki using the [Yin Yang Release] also could not feel the slightest abnormality.

When Black Zetsu realized this, he felt it was a bit ridiculous.

Just kidding, it is a special existence created by Kaguya Otsutsuki using the [Yin Yang Release]. In essence, it is somewhat similar to the Ten-Tails. Even though it does not have much combat power, its ability to hide is maximized.

Even though the Six Paths Sage and his other brother, who had reached the Six Paths level and were very powerful, did not realize that their mother had used [Yin Yang Release] to create Black Zetsu when she was sealed at the last moment of being sealed. Black Zetsu, who had no combat ability (at least compared to the Kage to Six Paths level, he had no combat ability), was hiding in the dark, waiting for the deaths of the two brothers, Otsutsuki Hamura and Otsutsuki Hagoromo, before planning how to unseal Otsutsuki Kaguya.

Over the past thousand years, Black Zetsu has been acting cautiously, including designing around the reincarnated bodies of the souls of successive Indras and Asuras, but he has not been discovered by the reincarnated bodies of Indra and Asura, who have grown up and are at least at the Kage level. Even White Zetsu is rarely discovered by those Kage-level powerhouses, and will quickly self-destruct if he occasionally encounters them.

Now, looking at Li Mo, whose strength was completely unknown and who didn't even know the situation, Black Zetsu felt an inexplicable fear for the first time. It seemed that Uchiha Obito's dissatisfaction was completely unimportant in Black Zetsu's heart!

"Well, it seems like you two are a little reluctant to stay~!"

Seeing that Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu had no intention of answering, Li Mo, who had spent a lot of time squatting around the Mist Village in order to catch Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu, who even the shadow soldiers found difficult to track, raised his eyebrows and restrained his smile, with a hint of malice in his eyes.

Previously, the reason why Li Mo did not take action against Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu was purely because Uchiha Madara was still alive and Li Mo’s own strength was insufficient. But the situation is completely different now. He is naturally prepared to eliminate these two unstable factors!

……

"Let's withdraw!"

After hearing Li Mo's words, Uchiha Obito's first reaction was not to fight head-on, but to honestly choose to retreat immediately. He did not stay here to fight a life-and-death battle with this guy who looked like he was not easy to deal with.

Just kidding, the evil Uchiha Obito's methods are despicable and cruel, and he was ruthless to his teacher Namikaze Minato and the Mist Village, but he was also clear that everything he did was to create a peaceful world with the white moonlight in his heart. For this purpose, he can kill any enemy who stands in his way. However, this definitely does not include inexplicable fighting with unrelated strong people.

——Well, to put it more simply, Uchiha Obito felt fear in his heart. He really couldn't figure out Li Mo, about whom he had no information at all. Even Black Zetsu, who controlled many White Zetsu and had a deep understanding of all forces in the ninja world, couldn't explain Li Mo. Uchiha Obito felt a strong sense of uneasiness and fear in his heart. Naturally, he was not prepared to engage in an inexplicable life-and-death battle with the other party. He was not even prepared to use Uchiha Madara's vest.

Anyway, Uchiha Obito still had some idea in his mind. He pretended to be Uchiha Madara just to borrow the other party's name to intimidate those strong men whose background he didn't know. However, looking at the unknown enemy in front of him, he didn't think that the other party would be scared. Naturally, he prepared to evacuate directly. Otherwise, fighting with an unknown but strange enemy would be a pure act of panic.

Unfortunately, there was nothing wrong with Uchiha Obito's idea, but he and Black Zetsu found in the next second that their [Kamui] and [Ephemeral Technique] were completely useless, and the surrounding environment seemed to have formed a special cage!

Chapter 40 Killing two birds with one stone

"Damn it, what's going on?!"

Seeing that he could not successfully display his [Kamui], Uchiha Obito could not help but question it. And beside him, Black Zetsu, who was disguised as [Black and White Zetsu], looked particularly ugly.

Are you kidding? Uchiha Obito is very aware of his own strength. Without relying on the Mangekyō Sharingan's pupil technique [Kamui], based on his own comprehensive strength, it is hard to say whether he can defeat some senior elite jonin. He is basically no match for the quasi-Kage level masters, and he would be courting death in front of a Kage-level powerhouse.

Black Zetsu's strength is not that strong either, at least he does not use any sneaky tactics. An elite jonin may be able to defeat Black Zetsu in a head-on confrontation. However, if Black Zetsu wants to hide himself, few people in the ninja world may be able to find his trace.

This is the key reason why Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu are causing trouble in the ninja world, but few people know their true identities, and even Konoha Village cannot confirm their true identities.

However, the failure of the Mangekyō Sharingan's pupil technique [Kamiu], which he relied on in the past, was also a great psychological blow to Uchiha Obito, and Black Zetsu also felt more and more uneasy. He didn't expect that he would suddenly encounter such a powerful enemy. It was completely unexpected!

"Hey, you two chose to leave without saying goodbye, which is not a good move!"

Seeing Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu trying to escape from the range of the [Shadow World] but failing to get out, Li Mo, who had already anticipated that the two guys might escape directly, had an especially ferocious smile on his face. He then walked towards the two targets while directly issuing the final notice: "However, I will still forgive you this time, and let you be my test subjects~!"

As for Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu, Li Mo had naturally considered how to deal with the two guys, but as for subduing them like he did with Mei Terumi and Tsunade, Li Mo had never considered such a thing at all. Not to mention that he didn't like these two guys, their value alone made him eager to try.

There are not many people of the Uchiha clan who have opened the Mangekyō Sharingan in the world of Naruto, not to mention that Uchiha Obito opened the spatial ability [Kamui]. Its value is so high that even Li Mo thinks that this pair of Mangekyō Sharingan is very valuable. As for Black Zetsu, there is no need to say more. This creation of Kaguya Otsutsuki that can be found and will not cause too much trouble makes Li Mo very much want to explore its life essence.

As for these two goals, when Li Mo stepped into the Six Paths level and began to fully digest the other Li Mo powers he obtained from the [White Mist Space], he listed them as targets that needed special attention. He first went to Konoha Village and captured the girl from Cloud Village, then returned to Rainbow Country with Tsunade and others, and then ran to Mist Village. Otherwise, the action against Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu would have been put on the agenda.

Now, Li Mo was in the Mist Village, ready to wait for Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu to come running over. For him, it was really a good thing to kill two birds with one stone. Naturally, he was not going to let go of Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu, the intended targets.

"Jue, let's work together and kill him!"

At this moment, Uchiha Obito could no longer suppress his anger, and gave orders to Black Zetsu without hesitation. At the same time, he glared at Li Mo with his Mangekyō Sharingan and once again activated his Mangekyō Eye Technique [Kamui].

Stab~!

Li Mo's figure and the surrounding space were distorted by the power of [Kamiu], but before Uchiha Obito's face, covered by the vortex mask, could show a smile, he suddenly saw Li Mo's figure, disappearing like a bubble.

The next moment, Li Mo appeared in front of Uchiha Obito, ignoring the other party's instinctive use of [Wood Release * Piercing Technique], and pointed one hand directly in front of Uchiha Obito. At this time, in addition to using [Shadow World] to block the surrounding space to prevent Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu from escaping, he did not completely block the other party from using Mangekyō Eye Technique, in order to see the power of [Kamui].

Do you think Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu can turn the tide?

If Uchiha Obito was the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki and Black Zetsu was still lurking on him, Li Mo would not hesitate to use all his strength to quickly kill his opponent. However, Li Mo really didn't take Uchiha Obito seriously, as he couldn't even use Susanoo and relied entirely on Kamui, a space eye technique, to show his power.

Seeing that dozens of Wood Release Ninjutsu transformed into tree branches could not even get close to Li Mo and were directly turned into ashes, Uchiha Obito could only ignore the consumption of his eye power and use the Mangekyō Eye Technique [Kamiu] to perform space protection. Then he was horrified to find that the space eye technique that even his teacher could not do anything about in the past, actually made a sound like breaking glass when the other party pointed at it. The intense consumption of his eye power made him choose to retreat immediately.

Li Mo did not stop Uchiha Obito's actions, as the opponent could not escape from the [Shadow World] he was performing seriously. He only tried the effect of [Kamiku] when he made a move. This proved that unless a Kage-level powerhouse was proficient in space ninjutsu and prepared for it, ordinary super-Kage-level powerhouses would have no way to use [Kamiku]. Breaking through space was still quite difficult in the ninja world.

At this time, Uchiha Obito, who had kept some distance, had time to observe the surrounding situation, and then he was shocked to find that Black Zetsu, who had not appeared to help besiege Li Mo, was now at the edge of the [Shadow World], and was obviously preparing to escape!

"Jue? You, are you planning to escape alone?!"

Seeing Black Zetsu betraying his teammates, Uchiha Obito was so angry that the blood vessels in his forehead were jumping. He was almost defeated by his opponent in the protection of [Kamiu] just now, and his Mangekyō Sharingan had consumed a lot of his pupil power. His only Mangekyō Sharingan felt swollen and painful. However, Black Zetsu, who wanted to join forces against the enemy, wanted to run away without saying a word, which made Uchiha Obito roar.

Even if Uchiha Obito himself had the chance to escape, he might just run away, but that would not prevent him from treating other people with double standards. What's more, in his eyes, Black Zetsu was just a useful tool left behind by Uchiha Madara!

"I'm trying to see if I can break this barrier..."

Facing Uchiha Obito's roar, Black Zetsu had to explain. Actually, he had no intention of explaining anything in his heart. However, he just found out that he really couldn't escape from this unknown barrier, so he had to consider fighting against Uchiha Obito together, otherwise he would have no good ending.

"Shut up! Seal!!!"

However, Li Mo obviously had no time to listen to Black Zetsu and Uchiha Obito chatting, and he appeared directly in front of Black Zetsu. He then performed a specially targeted barrier technique, which instantly froze Black Zetsu's thoughts and then sealed him directly.

This is Li Mo's special trick to deal with Black Zetsu, which combines the barrier technique from the Naruto world and the extraordinary knowledge from other worlds. It has been modified so that even the Uzumaki clan, the original owners of the barrier technique, cannot recognize it. Not to mention that the seal completely solidifies the opponent's thinking, the diamond-shaped crystal from the seal looks like amber, and the shrunken Black Zetsu can be clearly seen in it. The disguised pitcher plant monster look is really not that good.

Li Mo carefully placed the captured precious sample in his own [Shadow World] for safekeeping. Anyway, he decided to take some time to study Black Zetsu carefully to see if its nature was really as he guessed.

"Damn it... open it for me!!!"

On the other side, Uchiha Obito, who had just righteously reprimanded Black Zetsu, tried to run away without hesitation. However, even if he used all his strength to activate the Mangekyō Eye Technique [Kamui], his eyes were already oozing blood and tears, and he could not escape.

Li Mo saw Uchiha Obito's struggle but did not stop him. Did he really think that the power of the [Shadow World] could be broken at will?

In fact, as for Li Mo's [Shadow World], as he completely integrated the power of Li Mo from other worlds, the [Shadow World] that was previously biased towards [Power of Dark Shadow] and [Shadow Escape] has actually begun to transform into a real world with all the Yin and Yang and Five Elements, and as a result, its power and potential have been greatly improved.

Relatively speaking, Uchiha Obito's current strength is really not enough. When he went to fool Uzumaki Nagato and Konan, he had to use the name of Uchiha Madara and use [Kamui] to pretend to be mysterious. If he had a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan intact and [Susanoo] activated, Li Mo might still look at him with a higher regard. But now Uchiha Obito has no strength at all. At least in front of Li Mo, apart from observing the situation of [Kamui], it is easy for him to be caught.

In just a few blinks of an eye, Li Mo bypassed the spatial protection of [Kamui] and directly dug out Uchiha Obito's Mangekyō Sharingan. Then he knocked Uchiha Obito, who was screaming, unconscious, and used a binding technique to capture him. He then sent him to a space renamed [Portable World], waiting for Li Mo to have free time to carefully study the two precious samples.

After collecting the two trophies he had captured, Li Mo did not turn around and leave. On the contrary, the scope of the [Portable World] suddenly expanded. Then he looked in a certain direction leisurely and said in a very calm tone:

"Tsk, Mr. Orochimaru, you have just been hiding aside to observe. Can you come out now?"

Chapter 41 Orochimaru was discovered

"I never thought that a strong man like you would appear in the Water Country?!"

When Li Mo looked in a certain direction, accompanied by a slightly emotional sound, a figure slowly emerged from the ground. He was wearing light yellow clothes, a thick purple shimenaga around his waist, had cold and gloomy pupils, and an extremely pale face. It was none other than the cold-hearted Orochimaru, one of the Three Ninjas of Konoha.

Why did the cold man Orochimaru appear in the Land of Water? When Li Mo first discovered him, he didn't think there was anything strange about this question at all!

If Li Mo had not appeared, the plot line of Orochimaru in the original anime of "Naruto" would be to continuously establish various secret bases in the ninja world, recruit children with bloodline limits and talents, and later even established a Sound Village.

Even though the scale of this ninja village is not large, the number of ninjas is not small. Orochimaru has even trained quasi-kage or even kage-level fighters such as Crystal Style Guren and Kaguya Kimimaro. Most of the other Sound-ninjas have been transformed, and their Genin and Chunin can even rival ordinary ninjas of the same level in the five major ninja villages. However, there is a clear lack of mid- to high-end combat power, and even the total number of ninjas is only the size of a small ninja village.

However, Orochimaru established the Otogakure purely to create a visible signboard. All he wanted was to pursue immortality. To this end, he learned all the knowledge of ninjutsu and developed the [Orochimaru Style Substitution Technique], [Reincarnation Technique], [Cursed Seal] and other tricks. He even survived until after the Fourth Shinobi World War.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the world of Naruto, Orochimaru is definitely the best scientific research genius in terms of scientific research ability. However, in the world of Naruto that emphasizes the Otsutsuki bloodline, after Orochimaru was promoted to a Kage-level powerhouse, the probability of him continuing to be promoted to the Super Kage level or even the Six Paths level is extremely slim. He signed a contract with Ryuchi Cave, one of the three sacred places for summoning beasts, and failed to cultivate the [Snake Sage Mode], which resulted in his path to immortal arts being blocked.

This has caused Orochimaru to reach a bottleneck period in his career as a ninja. Even for more than 99% of ninjas, being promoted to the level of Kage is already a dream come true. However, for Li Mo, who knows the situation of the Fourth Ninja World War, the Kage-level strongmen are the strongmen in the early version of the Naruto world. In the Fourth Ninja World War, only the super Kage-level or even Six Paths-level strongmen were the chess players.

Especially for Orochimaru, he has not yet realized this situation. He pursues immortality rather than pure power. He has not made too much effort in studying bloodline limits and other aspects. Instead, he is thinking about the immortality of the soul. He uses the excellent ninjas who are regarded as containers for cultivation to continuously reincarnate their souls, trying to gain immortality in this way.

Now, Orochimaru, who had not yet undergone his first soul reincarnation, was on his way to the Land of Water to find some good seedlings when he happened to discover the battle between Li Mo, Uchiha Obito, and Black Zetsu. Then, Orochimaru, who had been carefully hiding, was discovered by Li Mo!

……

"...Should I say, you are truly worthy of being called the Cold Lord Orochimaru?"

Looking at Orochimaru who appeared in front of him, Li Mo looked at him with a hint of amusement in his eyes. He stretched out his hand with some sigh and took out a thumb-sized diamond crystal. He looked at Orochimaru with interest and sighed: "By the way, I still admire Mr. Orochimaru. You directly use your own soul for experiments. You are not afraid of being targeted by others for finding your soul fragments..."

That's right, Li Mo really admired Orochimaru. This number one scientist in the ninja world actually used his own soul to experiment in order to achieve immortality. Techniques like [Cursed Seal] and [Reincarnation of the Dead] were the results of Orochimaru's research in the soul field.
