Inferior Life-Form

Kakuzu's words caused Pain and the others to look somewhat strange.

Uchiha Obito, who was wearing a mask, was so angry that his face turned red under the mask!

He wasn't unaware that after being dealt a heavy blow by Hyuga Makoto in Kirigakure, his identity would definitely be in jeopardy.

He wasn't afraid of the so-called wanted notices from Konoha and Kirigakure at all; his only concern was whether Uchiha Obito's identity could keep Nagato.

Fortunately, Nagato didn't care at all.

Or rather, he never believed in himself at all.

He had no idea what the consequences would be; what if, in the end, someone wanted to kill him for the bounty?

"You can give it a try."

Uchiha Obito's gaze turned somewhat gloomy, and his voice became hoarse.

I'm curious, what can you do?

"Yeah?"

Kakuzu; he feels cheated out of his money, and he's furious right now!

"Alright, now is not the time for infighting."

Just as the two were about to clash, Deva Path Pain finally spoke.

"Don't forget, we still have to deal with that Nucleus Organization."

"That's right, those guys are the most troublesome and the most terrifying."

Black Zetsu also spoke up hastily; he was both the most excited and the most panicked at that moment.

It wasn't easy, it really wasn't easy!

He was in great pain because Uchiha Obito had caused them to lose the Kirigakure Village's intelligence network.

To his utter surprise, these people actually appeared on their own!

Although the reason seems somewhat strange...

But regardless, this is one of his best opportunities to learn about Nucleus Organization!

"He... he's actually always been within the organization, but his actions are bound to cause a massive upheaval in the Shinobi World, which is why he hasn't shown himself."

Black Zetsu earnestly advised him that he absolutely could not allow the Akatsuki Organization to descend into internal strife under the current circumstances.

"Furthermore, he saved Uchiha Itachi and Orochimaru, among others. The Nucleus Organization deliberately provoked us!"

"Snort..

Upon hearing these words, even Kakuzu knew that he couldn't continue.

But his eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but Obito Pain up and down, then glance at Pain before speaking.

"Do as you please, but after this is over, I need a reasonable explanation!"

Pain remained expressionless, but Nagato, who was hiding in the distance and controlling Pain, looked rather grim.

He was somewhat confused. Why would Kakuzu, who was always focused on his missions and making money, suddenly want to audit the accounts?

He had to admit that he wasn't Obito, and couldn't treat the Land of Rain Kirigakure the same indifference he showed to Kirigakure, like a passenger on a train.

However, he couldn't easily explain it, so he could only nod slightly.

"Don't worry, I'll give you an explanation after the mission is over. Besides, aren't you interested in these guys?"

"Of course I'm interested, otherwise I wouldn't have given up the bounties from Konoha and Kumogakure."

Kakuzu nodded, glancing at Uchiha Obito before looking away.

"How could one not be captivated by the heart of Wood Release?"

"I'm also curious about how powerful this Wood Release and Mangekyo abilities are."

Orochimaru licked his lips, while Sasori's eyes flickered slightly.

"I also want some new Human Puppet, but there's a problem."

I know what you want to ask.

Pain glanced at everyone present. Apart from Uchiha Itachi and Juzo Biwa, who were still recovering from their injuries, everyone else was practically dead.

The reason they came together, besides their interest in the so-called Indra and Asura, was mainly due to one other thing!

"That so-called mastermind also intrigues me, which is why I came here; I want to see for myself..."

Pain spoke indifferently, and he and Nagato was looking up at the sky in the distance, spoke in cold voices together.

"If that guy really appears, will he still be so arrogant in front of God?"

Black Zetsu: "6"

"Cheng, when do you think they'll arrive?"

On the other side of the Forest, Shisui and Hyuga Makoto's Clone waited quietly.

This waiting also made Shisui somewhat anxious, especially since he felt that things wouldn't be simple tonight.

"And are you ready?"

"Don't worry, I'm definitely prepared. And haven't you noticed something?"

Hyuga Makoto's Clone was munching on Military Rations Pill. The original had already eaten, so the Clone couldn't eat anymore, no matter how hungry it was. However, there was something amusing about the clone's expression.

"I've been with you all day, didn't you notice what was going on?"

"Well?"

Shisui paused for a moment, then stroked his chin and said...

"Didn't you take advantage of your vacation, pretend to sleep in at home, and then come here?"

"What a lame excuse, my Puppet Technique have improved again."

Hyuga Makoto rolled his eyes. He had already reached the 40th stage of the Moon Ōtsutsuki, and his Tenseigan development was also quite good.

With this improvement, his puppet control skills are now on par with Nagato's!

Even when he is awake, he can easily control his other bodies.

Although it might consume more of his CPU, it's not a big deal as long as it doesn't involve combat!

"But speaking of which, I've been with Uchiha Izumi and Sasuke Uchiha all day. You Uchiha people are just too difficult to deal with."

"Ah?"

Hyuga Makoto was still complaining, but Shisui's eyes widened.

He looked at Hyuga Makoto in disbelief, hesitated for a moment, and then cautiously spoke.

"Makoto, even if you want to get revenge on Uchiha Itachi, doesn't this seem a bit much?"

"Um?

Hyuga Makoto was stunned, while Shisui pursed his lips before continuing.

"Besides, he's already lost his humanity, so doing this might not be effective, so you—"

".

"Of course, I support whatever you do, but I think it's a bit unethical."

"It was just a sincere suggestion, don't take it to heart."

Hyuga Makoto was speechless, and almost laughed in anger.

He never imagined that his character would be so despicable in Shisui's eyes.

He's starting to regret it. Why didn't he choose the "Bull Mask" when he joined the Anbu?

That way I can feel at ease!

"You bastard----"

Hyuga Makoto was both annoyed and amused, but just as he opened his mouth, his gaze suddenly sharpened.

Shisui also stopped at this moment, looking around warily, and at the same time dispelling the Shizune barrier on the ground.

The two of them were chatting idly, and who knows if someone would overhear them? Of course, Hyuga Makoto would be prepared!

"Since you're here, come out."

Once the barrier was broken, Hyuga Makoto calmly spoke.

"Hiding and dodging is really pointless."

Buzz-

As soon as he finished speaking, countless snake shadows appeared all around.

The small snakes, their tongues flicking and emitting a bloody stench, slowly approached the two of them.

In the sky, a patch of magnetic sand appeared faintly, silently surrounding them along with the traces of several puppets.

Kakuzu walked silently towards them, while Uchiha Obito opened the Kamui Space behind them.

In the blink of an eye, they were surrounded by these people!

"What a grand display!"

Hyuga Makoto seemed completely unconcerned. He tilted his head slightly and looked at Kakuzu with amusement.

"So you know Uchiha Obito's identity, huh? Then have you figured out where your money went?"

Kakuzu remained silent, his emotions a jumbled mess, while Hyuga Makoto turned to look at Obito.

"It's you again. You definitely look better with a mask on. You're so ugly without one."

Obito remained silent, his Sharingan beneath his Sharingan gleaming with murderous intent!

But Hyuga Makoto didn't care about Obito at all; his gaze continued to sweep over Orochimaru and Sasori.

Finally, he sighed, his voice slowly turning cold.

"It seems you are unable to appreciate my good intentions."

"Hehe...

Orochimaru laughed hoarsely, his eyes filled with greed and murderous intent.

"When your people attacked us, it seems they didn't have any good intentions," right?

Who is that guy?

Scorpion also spoke indifferently, Hiruko was shattered, he could only retain his true form.

Where is he? And...

What is your purpose?

Obito killing intent palpable, took the words, his Chakra already at its peak.

"If you tell me now, I can give you a quick death, otherwise..."

"Or what?"

Hyuga Makoto stood still, his sleeves fluttering even though there was no wind.

Do you really think that just a few of you can dance in front of me?

These one sentence alone caused everyone present to turn pale!

They were all seasoned ninjas with extraordinary skills.

No matter who you encounter, you wouldn't be as contemptuous as this guy, much less provoke them!

But the arrogance of this guy was far more serious than they had imagined.

"It seems..."

Orochimaru licked his lips, and the next moment countless wind blades, accompanied by hissing venomous snakes, rushed towards Hyuga Makoto and Shisui!

"We can only gather information about you through your corpses."

"Magnet Release: Iron Sand Drizzle!"

Without a word, Sasori immediately unleashed the Human Puppet controlling the Third Kazekage, while Kakuzu instantly completed the hand seals.

Lightning Release: False Darkness!

This mottled yet powerful force surged wildly in all directions.

In an instant, it was about to crash into Hyuga Makoto and Shisui!

Is that all?

However, Hyuga Makoto only glanced at it silently.

The next instant, a roaring burst of Chakra erupted from his body!

Boom-

The earth shattered at that moment, and countless vines intertwined and spread rapidly, instantly blocking all their attacks.

Moreover, these vines are growing wildly, and large trees are quietly rising up!

"The Deep Forest Emergence?"

"That fast speed?"

Orochimaru, Sasori, and Kakuzu, faced with the sudden onslaught of vines, could only retreat quickly.

They didn't even see the hand seals being formed before the spell was already activated!

"Moreover, such power and scale are truly beyond what that guy Tenzo can compare to."

Orochimaru's eyes flickered, and he immediately spoke.

"Use Fire Release, and don't let those vines touch you."

As he spoke, he had already completed the hand seals, and Kakuzu had also used the power of his second heart.

Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!

Fire Release: Searing Migraine!

Two raging flames, like ocean tides, instantly rushed towards the wildly sweeping vines.

At this moment, Sasori also controlled the Iron Sand, silently and quickly moving towards Hyuga Makoto along the gap in the Wood Release.

Buzz-

At that very moment, Uchiha Obito suddenly broke through the vines and attacked Hyuga Makoto -on!

But just as his body stepped over the surrounding Wood Release, he suddenly saw a green Chakra form complete.

Susanoo?

Obito's gaze sharpened. The Susanoo enveloped Shisui and Hyuga Makoto together, its icy gaze silently fixed on him!

"Cut...

Obito cursed under his breath, realizing that if he were to enter Susanoo's body, which was completely enveloped in Chakra...

Once the true form appears, disaster will surely follow. It is not sand; it is not certain that it can withstand it.

"Magnet Release: Iron Sand Giant Needles!"

But at that very moment, the Iron Sand that had passed through the vines rapidly condensed under the scorpion's control.

The high-density spear, imbued with an eerie magnetic quality, charged fiercely towards Hyuga Makoto and Shisui.

Seeing this scene, neither Hyuga Makoto nor Shisui were moved, because such an attack really couldn't break through Susanoo's defense!

As expected, these Iron Sand Giant Needles shattered instantly upon impact with Susanoo.

Susanoo unchanged, and Hyuga Makoto gently shook his head at that moment.

"It seems that this is indeed all you are capable of; I overestimated you."

His voice was soft, yet it easily reached everyone's ears, making Orochimaru, Obito, and the others' expressions even more unpleasant.

Hyuga Makoto this moment, Chakra's Orochimaru surged silently once again. He raised his head and calmly looked at Obito, Orochimaru, and the others.

"Let that guy who's been watching the show do the work, otherwise..."

A deep, furious roar echoed through the Forest, and the earth churned and churned at that moment.

Countless vines quickly intertwined, and a hundred-meter-long Wood Dragon had already completed its transformation under his control!

The Wood Dragon's large golden eyes were so bright in the moonlight, yet so eerie.

Its mouth opened, and a powerful surge of Chakra was rapidly churning within it. At that moment, Hyuga Makoto's voice fell.

"You'll never have another chance! Wood Release: Rasengan Tailed Beast Bomb!"

The violent energy caused everyone's expression to change drastically, even Obito's.

Before they could react, the constantly spinning Chakra Ball suddenly shot out, hurtling straight toward them!

bang-

With a bang, all the trees along the way were swallowed up by the Chakra Ball and turned into dust.

At that moment, the world seemed to go Shizune, so Orochimaru couldn't hear anything at all.

They were now completely bewildered. They just couldn't understand why, at such close range, that guy wasn't afraid of getting into trouble himself.

But they didn't have time to think too much; they could only keep gathering Chakra and trying to find a way to defend themselves.

Shinra Tensei!

At that very moment, Pain, who had been holding back until now, finally couldn't hold back any longer.

In an instant, a vast repulsive force blotted out the sky, completely separating the "Spiral Tailed Beast Bomb" from Orochimaru and the others!

With a deafening boom, the moment the two energies collided, the world was instantly engulfed in a blinding white light!

A tremendous roar resounded through the heavens and the earth, the ground continued to crack, and the surrounding trees were instantly turned into dust and disappeared without a trace.

Thick smoke continued to rise, as if it would engulf the entire Forest!

At that very moment, a voice quietly rang out in the sky.

"Oh, someone actually obtained the Rinnegan..."

"Inferior beings."
