Orochimaru only smiled more deeply after hearing Kakuzu's words.

"Intangibility?"

He slowly raised his head, his golden slit pupils fixed on Lumen. His voice was hoarse, yet carried an almost pathological certainty.

"There is no truly unsolvable ninjutsu in this world."

"Every technique has a price, a weakness, and activation conditions. Even the First Hokage's Wood Release, even Madara Uchiha's Susanoo—both can be studied, countered, and deciphered."

Kakuzu frowned at him.

Sasori's battered puppet body also paused for a moment.

None of them had expected that, after witnessing Lumen's overwhelming power with his own eyes, Orochimaru would still dare to provoke him.

Orochimaru, however, seemed completely unaffected by the pressure on the battlefield. His gaze grew even more feverish.

"An attack passing through your body may not necessarily mean true Intangibility."

"What Zetsu saw, what Obito saw, and the information heard by the Akatsuki Organization—all of it could have been distorted by you."

"Lumen, aren't you especially skilled in genjutsu?"

"Mirror Flower, Water Moon."

When he uttered those four words, Kakashi's expression shifted slightly.

Orochimaru continued, "The most terrifying part of combat genjutsu is making the enemy believe they have seen reality. Perhaps this so-called Intangibility is merely you using genjutsu to distort their judgment and make them believe the attacks passed through your body."

"Even if Intangibility is real, it must have limitations."

"Duration."

"The instant you become tangible."

"Chakra consumption."

"The burden on your ocular power."

"Spatial anchor points."

"One of these things will eventually become a weakness."

He licked the corner of his lips, undisguised covetousness filling his voice.

"As long as that weakness is found, something supposedly unsolvable will no longer be unsolvable."

The moment these words were spoken, the expressions of all the Konoha shinobi darkened.

Orochimaru was not merely putting up a brave front.
