Orochimaru's Deduction

At the Land of Wind Border Desert, a man dressed in a black robe and wearing an Orange Mask walked slowly toward them.

"Is that the forest that suddenly appeared?" Obito Uchiha looked at the vast forest surrounded by desert, his right eye filled with concern.

Tobi, who was attached to him, said, "Yes. Sunagakure has confirmed that this forest was created using Wood Release. It's truly magnificent! Come to think of it, this is the first time I've ever seen such a large forest in the desert."

Tobi studied the trees around them and asked with a grin, "What are you going to do?"

"Does Nagato know about this forest?" Obito
