Uchiha, starting from the destruction of the ninja world

Chapter 27 Orochimaru's Intuition

The Land of Fields, Orochimaru's secret base.

The enormous observatory resembles a black behemoth...

Standing like a statue deep within the base...

At the top of the observatory, Orochimaru stood in front of the huge observation instruments, gazing intently at the distant starry sky.

Ever since his last encounter with Danzo, Orochimaru has been plagued by a persistent sense of unease.

Recalling that meeting, he vaguely sensed the eerie aura emanating from Danzo.

That aura was extraordinary; it was as if a force was silently influencing Danzo's consciousness.

As an expert who has long studied the realm of the soul and spirit, Orochimaru keenly perceived the problem.

Without a doubt, this must be the power of the Sharingan.

The question is, just how powerful must the Sharingan be to subtly control or even guide a person like Danzo without anyone noticing?

Considering many recent events, Orochimaru has a bold hypothesis...

Although Uchiha Gen is already dead...

But his Sharingan, his chakra awareness...

It is influencing the entire ninja world and stirring up the situation in a strange way.

So what is his purpose?

Destroy the ninja world?

Or something else?

Just as he was lost in thought, a deep, hoarse voice suddenly sounded behind him without warning: "Orochimaru..."

The sudden sound, as if emerging from hell, immediately alerted Orochimaru.

Turning my head, I saw a black figure appear...

Moonlight streamed through the gaps in the observatory, falling on the eerie mask, making it appear particularly sinister and cold.

After seeing who it was...

Orochimaru's smile was forced and insincere...

"Isn't that Tobi from the Akatsuki organization?"

"hooligan?"

Obito's voice, deep and calm, came from behind the mask as he slowly shook his head...

"I am not Tobi, I am Uchiha Madara."

Orochimaru's smile immediately faded upon hearing this.

Madara Uchiha?

You're kidding me...

"That joke isn't funny at all."

Before he finished speaking, a large number of dense venomous snakes suddenly surged out of Orochimaru's sleeves, rushing towards Obito like a black tide.

At the critical moment, Obito's figure suddenly became illusory, and all the venomous snakes instantly pierced through his body...

It was as if what was before me was just a void, an illusion, and I couldn't touch the real entity at all.

The next moment, Obito appeared on Orochimaru's other side, his kunai aimed precisely at Orochimaru's throat.

Orochimaru quickly turned around, ready to retaliate.

Just as he was about to launch his attack, his gaze unexpectedly met Obito's Sharingan.

In that brief moment of eye contact, Orochimaru froze on the spot.

In the instant their eyes met!

A strong and eerie sense of familiarity welled up from the depths of my heart...

This feeling was extremely clear and profound, even making him feel a chill.

He had personally experienced this special kind of mental fluctuation in Danzo.

At this moment, Orochimaru finally realized that the mysterious figure before him, who called himself Uchiha Madara...

The Sharingan he possesses has a hidden yet powerful connection to the power he sensed from Danzo last time.

Could it be...?

"you..."

For the first time, Orochimaru's voice betrayed undisguised shock and doubt...

"Who exactly are you?"

At this moment, he did believe that the person before him was the real Uchiha Madara...

Perhaps only Madara Uchiha could control Danzo...

But the truth told Orochimaru that this person, like Danzo, was most likely deeply entangled without realizing it...

Uchiha Abyss...

How could there possibly be such a powerful Sharingan in this world?

Or perhaps, his Sharingan was based on false information from the very beginning...

Unable to understand any of this, Orochimaru fell into an eerie silence.

Obito stared at him coldly, his voice low and calm: "I am Uchiha Madara, Orochimaru."

"Is that so... Lord Madara..."

Orochimaru lowered his head: "I'm very curious..."

"What exactly is the ability of your Sharingan that allows it to subtly influence a person's mind and consciousness?"

This was the final test, to see if he knew anything about Danzo...

This question is very vague...

If it were the true controller of one's own consciousness, one would surely understand why one is asking the question.

Why is Orochimaru asking this?

Influence others' consciousness?

I'm not still water...

Upon hearing this, Obito slightly turned his head and immediately changed the subject...

"I think you should explore that answer yourself. But right now, I've come to you for something more important."

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly.

He had no idea what he had just asked...

"cooperate."

Having completely calmed down, Orochimaru quickly retorted, "...What do you want from me?"

Seeing Orochimaru quiet down, Obito took back his kunai...

"The Impure World Reincarnation Technique is said to be able to revive dead ninjas and give them almost the same fighting abilities they had in life."

Upon hearing the words "Impure World Reincarnation," Orochimaru's expression changed instantly, and he scrutinized Obito with great interest.

He knew the power of the Impure World Reincarnation technique, and he was also aware of its drawbacks...

"That's right, the Impure World Reincarnation can indeed summon and control powerful dead ninjas, but the prerequisite is that a sufficiently powerful and suitable sacrifice must be prepared."

"Otherwise, even if they are summoned, the more powerful the ninja, the harder it is for them to unleash their full potential."

Orochimaru didn't want to refuse Obito's offer of cooperation, since he himself didn't want to stay with Akatsuki any longer.

The mystery surrounding the strange masked man only fueled his desire to investigate further.

Upon hearing this, Obito seemed to have been prepared.

He calmly pulled a white, humanoid body from his spatial storage and tossed it in front of Orochimaru: "So, what do you think of this? Is it up to standard?"

Orochimaru initially glanced at it casually, but the next second, his eyes blazed with intense research desire and excitement.

"This is...?"

Orochimaru carefully examined the white body on the ground, his excitement growing stronger and stronger, almost impossible to conceal.

"This is a special artificial body called White Zetsu, which possesses powerful life energy and chakra adaptability."

Obito said this with a hint of pride, "It should perfectly suit the requirements of the Impure World Reincarnation Technique, right?"

There weren't many White Zetsu, but he could still steal a batch...

Black Zetsu must be furious, right?

Orochimaru did not answer immediately, but reached out and gently touched the body of the White Zetsu.

The delicate, vibrant texture instantly aroused his strong interest and desire.

"That's really interesting..."

Orochimaru murmured softly, "I've never seen this kind of artificial body before."

He then raised his head, his expression gradually becoming serious, and looked at Obito earnestly: "However, I need some more time to carefully study and confirm its feasibility."

Obito nodded calmly, his tone steady and confident: "Study it as you like. I have plenty of this stuff."

Anyway, it's very convenient for me to steal things with my Kamui...

At this moment, Obito frowned, because he sensed a familiar chakra appearing outside Orochimaru's base...

"Itachi Uchiha has arrived..."

Upon hearing that Uchiha Itachi had appeared, Orochimaru revealed an extremely greedy look in his eyes.
