Orochimaru's Discovery

BOOM!!!

Rain poured down in torrents, lightning flashed, and thunder roared. Obito and Hiruko's battle was gradually nearing its end.

With only a Three-Tomoe Sharingan, Obito was ultimately no match for Hiruko. He was now covered in blood, and his limbs were gradually stiffening.

Besides the blood loss, poison was also ravaging his body.

How could the poison personally concocted by Sasori of the Red Sands be so easily cured?

The Antidote Pills Obito carried were merely standard Konoha issue. They could only cure known poisons that had appeared on the battlefield before, such as Chiyo of Sunagakure's poison. But Sasori of the Red Sands had continued improving over the years. Whether it was his Puppet Technique or his poison-making, neither could be countered by ordinary Antidote Pills.

Obito stood beneath the curtain of rain. The raincoat on his body had long since been torn to shreds in battle, and blood flowed from the wounds exposed to the downpour, mixing with the rainwater as it slowly dyed the ground red, like a blood-colored rose.

Hiruko's tail stinger swayed through the air, but no matter how it moved, it remained fixed on Obito's eyes.

"Sharingan... Hahahaha! Making a Sharingan puppet would definitely be interesting!"

Sasori of the Red Sands' voice came from within Hiruko's body, filled with crazed excitement.

"Even if you defeat me, you won't get my Sharingan!"

Obito gritted his teeth and raised the kunai in his hand toward his left eye, but the poison spreading through his body was growing ever stronger, leaving his limbs increasingly stiff and powerless.

Damn it!!!

"Useless. This is poison I personally formulated for Uchiha Houka. It isn't lethal, but it can completely paralyze your body and limbs. Hahaha! That way, I can turn Uchiha Houka into my puppet while he's still alive
