By Orochimaru and the others' plan, they intended to set the wolves against the tigers and find a chance to lead the Shinobi World away while the Divine Tree fought the Otsutsuki Main House.
The power of a group was far too weak before transcendent individuals.
The people of the Shinobi World could contend with ordinary Otsutsuki, but once high-level Kekkei Mōra users—powerhouses like Shinku—took action, one person could easily wipe out every team.
Inside Babel Tower.
While maintaining the Dragon Vein Jinchūriki sealing ritual, Orochimaru contacted the Konoha Command Center through Yamanaka Inoichi's Mind-Link Technique.
"Have the personnel been relocated?"
Orochimaru asked for an update.
"They've already been placed at the designated locations." Jiraiya answered him. Minato was occupied with something, so Jiraiya was temporarily acting as the head of the Konoha Command Center.
"Tsunade is with me. The Slug Sage told her about the true enemy..."
"I already know that. Kamizuki's information is more accurate."
Orochimaru cut him off and said blandly, "You don't need to consider anything beyond that. Proceed according to the original plan."
Jiraiya hesitated slightly before saying in a deep voice, "Can we... really succeed?"
Standing on the top floor of the Hokage Building, he only had to look up to see it.
Countless stars...
Were falling.
Orochimaru paused for several seconds, then chuckled softly.
"No matter how many meteors there are, they cannot outshine the bright moon."
