"You reacted quite quickly."
Uya turned his head and glanced indifferently at Kabuto, who was bowing to him.
He didn't deliberately exude any imposing aura, but that one glance sent a chill down Dou's spine, made the hairs on his body stand on end, and caused a sudden look of horror to appear in his eyes. He lowered his head deeply, not daring to look up at Uya at all.
Was it because I suddenly walked in and offended Lord Uya?
Kabuto's mind raced, a bead of cold sweat trickling down his forehead, his body trembling slightly. Orochimaru, standing nearby, glanced at Uya and Kabuto with a puzzled look.
Orochimaru clearly sensed that Uya's attitude towards Kabuto was rather lukewarm, but of course he wouldn't speak at such a time. Kabuto's coincidence in running in at this moment and offending Uya could only be described as bad luck.
Actually, Uya's indifference towards Kabuto wasn't because he suddenly walked in, but because Uya didn't have a very good opinion of Kabuto.
Although he is highly intelligent, he always likes to hide in the shadows and scheme, which is somewhat similar to Danzo and Black Zetsu. Uya dislikes this about him.
In the original story, Kabuto used Orochimaru as a disguise. After Orochimaru's death, he took Orochimaru's place and participated in the Fourth Shinobi World War, Impure World Reincarnation Madara Uchiha through the Impure World Reincarnation technique. He can be considered one of the most important figures who influenced the Fourth Shinobi World War.
Later, by chance Uchiha Itachi broke free from his control, then used Izanami to successfully "train" him, thus redeeming him once again.
Ignoring Dou, who was bowing and trembling slightly, Uya walked past him calmly, his figure disappearing into the darkness.
After Uya had been gone for a long time, Kabuto slowly straightened up, took a deep breath, adjusted his glasses, and his forehead was still covered with a bead of sweat.
"Looks like I'll have to be more careful from now on."
Feeling as if he had just escaped death, Dou slowly gathered his thoughts and looked up at Orochimaru, only to find Orochimaru standing there in a daze.
Watching Uya leave, Orochimaru shook his head one last time and sighed softly.
"That feeling..."
Orochimaru, who possesses Hashirama Cells and the Mangekyō Sharingan, has a relatively clear perception of Uya's power. The last time he encountered Uya in Kirigakure, he could sense Uya's immense strength, which seemed as boundless as the ocean.
But now, when he sensed Uya again, what he felt was no longer the vastness of the ocean, but rather an endless, unreachable starry sky!
" Lord Orochimaru? What do you sense?"
Kabuto placed the experimental sample on the lab table and carefully walked to Orochimaru's side.
Orochimaru's gaze was deep as he spoke in a low voice, "If I'm not mistaken, he should already possess the power of the Sage of Six Paths..."
At this point, a serious look flashed in Orochimaru's eyes, and he said, "Furthermore, if I'm not mistaken, Kabuto, you don't remember the destruction of the moon."
"Of course I remember."
Kabuto nodded, then suddenly realized what he meant, a look of disbelief on his face. He said, " Lord Orochimaru, you mean...?"
"Um."
Orochimaru nodded solemnly and said, "No matter how you look at it, that should be considered a battle, and the only one capable of achieving that level of skill is probably Uya."
"But! If that's the case, then who is fighting Lord Uya?"
Kabuto still looked incredulous; after all, the destruction of the entire moon in a single battle was simply too outrageous.
If he and Orochimaru hadn't analyzed the Rinnegan and the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, and speculated that the moon might indeed have been created by the Sage of Six Paths, he probably wouldn't have believed such a thing at all.
"Who knows?" Orochimaru spread his hands, a sinister look on his face, and said, "Anyway, this Shinobi World is very interesting. There are still many hidden things, and much we don't know. And slowly understanding these unknowns is the most interesting thing, isn't it?"
Kabuto stood beside Orochimaru and nodded at Orochimaru.
After a moment of silence, Kabuto spoke up, "So, Lord Orochimaru, shall we continue with the thirteenth test subject...?"
"No, do this first."
Orochimaru shook his head, placed the storage scroll he had previously obtained from Uya on the lab table, and said, "Put everything else aside for now."
"Yes."
Kabuto nodded, opened the storage scroll, and began to assist Orochimaru with his tasks.
Time flies, and several years have passed in the blink of an eye.
After continuous expansion, Amegakure, though still not as large as Konoha, has far surpassed those smaller ninja villages in size, firmly establishing itself as the sixth largest ninja village.
At this very moment, in a spacious training ground within Amegakure.
" Shikotsumyaku! Flower!"
The incredibly Kaguya Kimimaro stood there, her gaze calm as still water, when suddenly she waved her hands.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!!!
In Setsuna, countless bone spurs burst forth from his palms, raining down on Bai in front of him like a storm, resembling gray hellish flowers blooming in the arena.
Ice Release! Condensed Ice Wall!
Bai looked at the flying bone spikes, but showed no panic. He formed a hand Hand Seals with one hand and suddenly pressed the other hand down on the ground.
Click!!
A thick ice wall suddenly rose up. This ice wall not only contained terrifying Chakra, but it was also Condensed Ice Wall that was highly compressed, similar to Kimimaro's bones. Its defensive power was even greater than that of the Earth Style Wall!
Ding ding dong!!
Kimimaro's bones were like nails, driven into the ice wall, but they only penetrated less than halfway before stopping, unable to completely pierce through it.
From a distance, the ice wall looks like a hedgehog, with its spiky bones connecting to form a petal pattern.
Ice Release! Ice Age!
Bai's small hand pressed on the ground, his gaze extremely serious and solemn. In an Setsuna, a terrifying chill burst forth from his palm, and the ground beneath his hand suddenly froze into ice, carrying with it a terrifying cold that spread in all directions.
This deep blue chill, like ocean waves, surged in all directions, freezing the earth inch by inch and turning it into solid ice wherever it went.
The ice spread wildly and rapidly, covering the entire area in an instant, even freezing the surrounding walls and buildings!
"Seriously! Not again, it's freezing!"
Karin, who was standing outside the battlefield, was also affected. She pouted in dissatisfaction, even though her constitution made it almost impossible for her to feel the cold, she still made a complaint. To be continued.
