Shisui glanced at Shisui Uchiha who was immersed in sadness beside him. He was currently exhausted both physically and mentally and could not continue on his way in a short time.
After thinking for a moment, Shisui decided to rest in this quiet place for the night.
During the night vigil, Shisui quietly left the camp and came to a river.
The moonlight spreads on the river like silver gauze, the river flows gurgling, and the broken moonlight is reflected in the sparkling waves.
And Orochimaru had already stood by the river, motionless, like a sculpture, quietly staring at the moonlight reflected in the river.
Hearing the sound of slight footsteps behind him, Orochimaru turned his head slowly, with a faint smile on his face, and said leisurely:
"Shisui-kun, I didn't mess it up."
The sound had a strange echo in the silent night.
Shisui shook his head slightly and responded calmly, "No, the plan went smoothly."
Hearing this, a greedy light flashed in Orochimaru's eyes, and he couldn't wait to say:
"Then, as agreed in advance, those two Uzumaki orphans will be mine from now on."
Shisui stared at Orochimaru with deep eyes and cold expression, and said unhurriedly:
"Yes, they will be the best containers for Rinnegan. But the premise is that you can handle Rinnegan."
Orochimaru raised the corners of his mouth, showing a confident smile, "I understand, then Mr. Shisui, I will leave first. I look forward to meeting you next time."
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure quickly merged into the boundless darkness like smoke and disappeared without a trace.
The next day, Shisui slowly opened his red and swollen eyes, and his dry eyelids rubbed against his eyeballs, causing a stinging pain.
The tears from last night had long dried up, leaving obvious marks on his face, which seemed to tell the grief in his heart.
"Shisui, wake up, come and take a look."
Shisui was standing not far away. When he saw Shisui sitting up, he immediately waved to him.
The sound is particularly clear in this quiet mountain forest.
Shisui lowered his head, as if carrying an endless weight, and walked slowly Earth Flow to Shisui's side.
When he saw the two red-haired corpses lying at Shisui's feet, he was speechless for a long time.
The surrounding air seemed to freeze instantly, there was no wind at all, and only the occasional chirping of birds broke the oppressive silence.
Shisui looked at Shisui's devastated look, sighed softly, then bent down, grabbed the human skin masks on the faces of the two corpses with both hands, and tore them off with force.
"Hiss" twice, the mask was pulled off, revealing two unfamiliar faces.
"I'm sorry, Shisui, in order to get you to open Mangekyo, I can only do this. These two people are criminals found by Orochimaru. Now that you have killed them, you deserve it."
Shisui heard this and his body trembled suddenly.
He was originally immersed in the great grief of the person he saved being killed, and his thinking was confused. Now things suddenly reversed, leaving him a little at a loss.
For a moment, complex emotions surged in his heart, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
After a while, Shisui forced a smile on his face and looked at Uchiha Shisui: "Brother Shisui, so this is all your plan?"
Shisui didn't speak, but nodded silently. When Shisui saw this, he suddenly understood.
"I understand, brother Shisui. Before brother's wish is fulfilled, all the sacrifices are worth it."
Shisui clenched his fists and said firmly.
As a ninja who inherited the will of Shisui, he decided not to allow himself to fall into this situation in the future.
"Shisui, it's great that you have such an awareness!"
Shisui patted Shisui on the shoulder with satisfaction, with a smile of relief on his face.
The rain curtain is like a fine silver needle, endlessly piercing the gloomy sky of Land of Rain.
On the towering observation deck of Amegakure, thick mist intertwined with fine rainwater, adding a bit of an eerie atmosphere to the entire high platform.
In an instant, a violently twisted black vortex appeared without warning, and the figure of Obito Uchiha slowly stepped out of the vortex.
He was wearing a red cloud-black windbreaker, and the scarlet Sharingan was shining with a strange light under the mask.
"Jue? You're not out collecting intelligence, so why are you looking for me all of a sudden?"
Obito's eyes were as bright as a torch, staring at Zetsu who was not far away and exuding a strange aura, and his voice was low.
Jue's body was like a growing plant, slowly squirming and exposing its upper body from the stone platform, making a harsh sound like sandpaper rubbing:
"The cave where Madara died was discovered by Shisui. He also killed a White Zetsu that I left there. He also took possession of the weapons that Madara left behind."
The moment the words fell, the surrounding air seemed to freeze for an instant, and the rain curtain seemed to have stopped briefly.
Obito heard this, looked at the hazy rain curtain in the distance with deep eyes, pondered for a moment and then slowly spoke:
"It turns out that this is the case. Shisui and we are in the same camp, and we are both working hard to achieve true peace in this cruel world. There is no need to pursue this matter."
A strange light flashed in Jue's eyes and he continued:
"More importantly, I saw with my own eyes that Uchiha Shisui channeled Nine-Tails. Since he has been able to control the most powerful Tailed Beast, other Tailed Beast will naturally not be his opponents, so Eye of the Moon Plan, which we have been preparing for a long time, can be launched in advance."
The sound of rain became more rapid at this moment, and the gloomy clouds also emitted bursts of thunder.
Obito frowned slightly, crossed his arms across his chest, and responded after thinking for a moment:
"Well, Nagato still needs me to make some arrangements, and it will take some time. As for Tailed Beast's collection work, I will leave it to Shisui for the time being."
After saying that, the space around Obito rippled again, and his figure gradually disappeared into the twisted vortex.
"Uchiha Shisui... I didn't expect it to appear at this critical moment."
Jue looked at the gloomy sky, smiled and said to himself,
"After planning for such a long time, the day when the plan will be realized is finally getting closer and closer."
In the underground of Amegakure, in an airtight room.
Nagato, his body is as thin as a skeleton.
He sat quietly in a huge wheelchair, his body wrapped in layers of bandages, like a mummy.
His empty eyes were unfocused, staring blankly ahead, not knowing what he was thinking about.
The dead silence lasted for a moment, and with the sound of slight footsteps approaching from far away, Obito slowly walked through the door and stepped into the room.
His footsteps echoed in the empty room, breaking the oppressive silence.
Nagato slowly raised his head, and the bandage on his neck made a slight friction sound with the movement.
He looked at Obito, who called himself Uchiha "Madara", his lips moved slightly, and his voice was hoarse and weak. "You are here..."
Obito took a step forward slightly, the black windbreaker swaying gently with the movement, and the scarlet Sharingan shone with a strange light in the darkness:
"Nagato, I decided to start the plan in advance. After that, I will join Akatsuki as a member, and as the leader, I will also be commanded by you."
