"But why had my experimental subject come here?"
Orochimaru slowly entered through the ward door, eyeing the White Zetsu that had dodged his attack with keen interest. A glint flashed in his eyes. This White Zetsu was very familiar to Orochimaru. During the Third Shinobi World War, Uzumaki Kuming had given him several White Zetsu corpses.
