Chapter 68: The Empire's Obito and Orochimaru: Sasuke's Meeting
Chapter 68: The Empire's Obito and Orochimaru: Sasuke's Meeting
On another path, Obito, wearing the spiral Zetsu's mask, smiled awkwardly at Deidara and said, "Senior Deidara, I... my stomach hurts so bad. I need to... I need to go now! I can't hold it any longer!"
As he spoke, he made a move to pull down his pants.
Deidara, standing beside him, glared angrily and shouted, "You idiot, Obito! Get away from me! If you dare to relieve yourself next to me, I'll blow you to bits!"
"Wah! Senior Deidara, you're so scary!" Obito cried out in fear, covering his rear and running away as fast as he could until he was out of Deidara's sight.
Kakashi slowly emerged from the ground, his face wearing a strange expression as he relayed the information about Urashiki. "A new Uchiha, Urashiki? What a peculiar name. Quite bold of him to provoke Itachi like that."
"Should we get rid of him for the sake of our plan?" Kakashi asked.
"No need," Obito replied indifferently. "He's just an ignorant fool. Without the Sharingan, an Uchiha is not worth our attention."
In a dim underground room, Uchiha Sasuke, Orochimaru, and Kabuto Yakushi gathered once more. Orochimaru's face was filled with excitement as his tongue constantly licked his lips. "Fascinating! Absolutely fascinating! I never expected that besides Sasuke, there would be another Uchiha in this world! And to think he would dare to threaten Itachi. Sasuke, your plan to kill Itachi yourself may have to be put on hold."
"Itachi Uchiha is not one to be killed easily," Sasuke said, his voice pausing momentarily. "But this other Uchiha..."
"What is it, Sasuke? Do you want to meet him? After all, he's the only other Uchiha left," Kabuto said as he pushed his glasses up with his left hand, his eyes meeting Orochimaru's.
It seemed like they were plotting something.
"I am quite interested indeed. Do you have a way to lure him out of Konoha?" Sasuke asked, glancing at Kabuto.
"Of course," Kabuto replied confidently. "Orochimaru-sama is one of the legendary Sannin of Konoha. Even today, there are still many followers of Orochimaru-sama within Konoha. With just one command from Orochimaru-sama, they will have countless ways to draw out the surviving Uchiha."
"Then let's go. I want to see for myself what kind of strength this man who dares to send Itachi to his death possesses," Sasuke said in a commanding tone.
"Go, Kabuto! I'm equally eager to witness this Uchiha's performance," Orochimaru said with a sinister laugh.
"A potential new vessel for my body! One more option! I wonder which one is more suitable, this surviving Uchiha or Sasuke? Hmm... this is truly exciting!"
In Konoha, in a certain alleyway, Hyuuga Neji looked at Obito with a somber expression. "What have you been up to these past few days? Why did you ask the Hokage to spread that kind of message?"
Obito's expression was equally somber as he replied, "I've been investigating information related to the Uchiha clan these days, but the more I investigate, the more unsettled I feel! You should understand this! Itachi Uchiha, that beast who killed his own clan! I cannot tolerate him living so happily!"
"So, do you plan to kill him now?" Neji asked.
"No," Obito answered. "I promised Itachi, and I promised the Uchiha clan that I wouldn't kill Itachi of this world. However, inflicting some torture on him is not part of that promise!" His voice was cold.
"Tch! You... Fine, I've avenged the Hyuuga clan of this world, so I have no right to stop you. But at least be more thorough in your information gathering. Don't end up submitting intelligence reports that have less information than I already know!" Neji said.
"Rest assured, no one can hide information from my Sharingan," Obito said.
"Hmph!"
Finally, Neji and Obito parted ways, each heading in a different direction out of the alleyway.
Not long after, Empire Obito sensed that someone was tailing him, so he slowly made his way to a sparsely populated area.
A familiar voice called out from behind, "Hello there, the surviving Uchiha, Brother Urashiki."
"Hmm?"
Empire Obito turned around and faced the speaker.
It was an ordinary-looking man.
"Can we talk in private? I have some very important information to share with you," the man said with a smile.
"Is it about that trash, Itachi Uchiha? If not, I'm not interested," Empire Obito replied.
"You're indeed sharp, Brother Urashiki. It is indeed about him," the man said.
"Then let's go."
Empire Obito followed the man, a slight smirk playing on his lips.
Itachi Uchiha! That damn trash!
I'll make you understand the true terror of the Uchiha clan! You ungrateful wretch who killed your father and mother and didn't cherish your first love, I'll make you taste despair and regret!
As they walked, Empire Obito's mind raced with thoughts of how to make Itachi Uchiha suffer.
They walked until they reached the outskirts of the village.
The guide called out loudly, "Orochimaru, I've brought the person you wanted to see!"
"This was too easy. There wasn't even a tail on us. The Leaf Village seems to have a lot of trust in you, Brother Urashiki," Orochimaru said, his voice carrying a hint of creepiness.
"All thanks to Tsunade, the Hokage, for being foolish enough to send a group of ninjas to learn taijutsu from me. The Leaf Village's defenses are surprisingly weak now," the guide said proudly.
"Orochimaru? Aren't you that trash, Itachi Uchiha?" Empire Obito frowned, his gaze turning angry as he looked at the guide.
"Have I been deceived?" There was a clear hint of anger in his voice.
"You're too careless, Urashiki of the Uchiha clan. The world of ninjas is not that simple!" the guide laughed.
"Well then, what is it that you want? You, a missing-nin from the Leaf Village. If it's not something important, the consequences could be severe!" Empire Obito's expression turned hostile.
"How terrifying, Brother Urashiki..." Orochimaru licked his lips, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Could it be that he's not afraid of me, a legendary Sannin?
Is this Uchiha truly foolish, or is his strength so great that he's confident to the point of arrogance?
Previously, he had boasted about killing Itachi Uchiha, but Orochimaru could attribute that to the fact that Itachi's reputation wasn't that resounding, and those who hadn't fought him wouldn't know his true power.
However, Orochimaru's reputation was definitely not something Itachi Uchiha could compare to! The fact that this Uchiha before him showed no fear was a problem!
"I heard you want to steal my prey?" a cold voice rang out from the forest.
Empire Obito's eyes shifted slightly as he looked at the speaker, a man dressed in white with an exposed chest and a handsome face.
"Sasuke?" Empire Obito's expression changed slightly.
"Oh my... Oh my... So, Brother Urashiki knows Sasuke-kun? In that case, I won't have to introduce myself," Orochimaru said with a smile.
"It seems you've seen my wanted poster," Uchiha Sasuke said coldly.
Empire Obito didn't respond immediately. Instead, he looked at Orochimaru and Sasuke, a thought occurring to him.
It was infuriating that Itachi hadn't shown up, but these two before him were certainly no ordinary people.
Orochimaru seemed to be a powerful scientist in this world.
And as for Sasuke, his natural talent, combined with the specialized potions, meant that he could quickly become a formidable force.
If he could bring these two under his control, it would undoubtedly bring him numerous benefits for the time being.
Perhaps... His Majesty might also lighten my sentence afterward?
While I do not fear death, I will eventually return to my world, to that hell where Rin does not exist.
