Pokémon Ninja Scrolls of the Mizukage

Chapter 421: Movements of Zero Organization
After saying that, he also turned his gaze towards the fingers where 'North' and 'Three' were.

However, Uchiha Obito didn't seem to agree with the word "North".

"Since there's a new guy, why not give me a new partner? I'm already getting tired of this lunatic!"

'San', who was called a madman by 'Bei', didn't seem to care much about his partner calling him that, and responded in a flat tone.

"It doesn't matter. If you are not satisfied with me, feel free to kill this body."

These seemingly plain words were actually full of contempt for "North".

"Do you think I don't dare? I was..."

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Obito, who was having a headache, interrupted their conversation in a harsh voice.

"The Bai partnership is settled!"

After he finished speaking, as if realizing that his tone was a little inappropriate, Obito straightened his collar and continued.

"Also, there's a new guy."

"Kong, this new guy is someone you know. You and Yu will be in charge of recruiting him."

The two people who were originally watching the show, heard that they also had a mission, and turned their eyes to Uchiha Obito at the same time.

"Acquaintances? I don't have many acquaintances. It seems unlikely that those whose strength is valued by the leader will join us, right?"

Having said that, Kong subconsciously stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, causing Yu to look away with a little disgust.

Well, the so-called 'Sora' is none other than Orochimaru who had just defected from Konoha not long ago.

Originally, after the battle with Kirigakure, Orochimaru was extremely disappointed with Sarutobi Hiruzen for choosing to surrender.

After the war, when Sarutobi Hiruzen returned to the village, he complained about his behavior of leaving the battlefield without permission.

This also made Orochimaru truly realize it.

Compared with one's own pursuits, the so-called Hokage and the village are so ridiculous.

This time, Orochimaru chose to leave Konoha before even waiting for Minato Namikaze to officially take over the position of Hokage.

At first, the people of Konoha did not realize that Orochimaru's departure was a real defection.

After all, Tsunade and Jiraiya, two of the three ninjas, also left Konoha secretly as the war gradually came to an end.

Even Sarutobi Hiruzen, his teacher, was unable to stop his disciple from leaving.

But after Minato Namikaze took over as Hokage.

During an inventory, several experimental bases abandoned by Orochimaru were discovered.

It includes a large number of human experiments, and many of the corpses are even missing persons in Konoha.

Since then, Orochimaru's departure was officially defined as defection by Konoha.

Black Zetsu, who had been monitoring the entire ninja world, took the opportunity to propose to Obito to recruit Orochimaru into the "Zero" organization he had established.

Of course, Orochimaru was also severely beaten during this process.

Facing Uchiha Obito who possessed the Kamui Sharingan and the Samsara Eye, even with Orochimaru's strength, he was unable to fight back.

However, for Orochimaru, joining the Zero Organization also has his own little thoughts.

However, when Orochimaru heard Obito say that the newly recruited members were actually his acquaintances, he became slightly interested.

"The position of the newcomer will be given to you later. As for who it is, you will know when you see it."

"Well, it turns out that the leader still likes to remain mysterious."

In response to Orochimaru's teasing, Uchiha Obito's veins throbbed under his mask.

However, he thought that it was precisely because of this sense of mystery that the once high-ranking Sannin chose to work for him. Obito then regained his composure and looked at the shadow of Orochimaru calmly.

"Go and carry out your mission. That's what you should do."

After saying this, Uchiha Obito continued to look around at the other people present, his lavender eyes emitting a terrifying light.

Seeing that no one had any other objections, Obito simply announced the end of the meeting and cut off the communication of the "Sensation Body Technique".

Only after the last shadow disappeared from the Outer Path Golem's finger did he turn around and look at Black Zetsu beside him again.

"Has the location of the last member you mentioned been confirmed?"

Seeing Obito asking him questions, Black Zetsu spread his hands helplessly.

"Not yet. Although I found the seal location in Konoha's database, it was too long ago and the records are not very detailed. It is still unknown whether I can find it."

Hearing that Black Zetsu, who had always been good at intelligence, was not sure whether it could be found, Uchiha Obito could only shake his head helplessly.

"Let's find another backup. Once we have enough people, we will start the operation. We can't keep waiting just for one person."

"I'll try my best. The location of our current base makes it difficult for me to communicate with other White Zetsu. Finding suitable newcomers is not that easy either."

Uchiha Obito also understood the problem that Black Zetsu was talking about.

But now he didn't know whether it was Konoha or some other force that had mastered the means to search for White Zetsu on a large scale throughout the ninja world.

Some time ago, from time to time, Bai Jue who was gathering intelligence outside would inexplicably lose contact.

It's even more troublesome than the frog in Kirigakure.

Just in case, they had no choice but to move their base to this secret place.

It is safe now, but external communication and intelligence acquisition have become a lot more troublesome.

"Then let's proceed simultaneously. As for the White Zetsu issue..."

"Didn't Orochimaru say that there was a Wood Release experiment subject in Konoha that he had transformed? Find a chance to bring him back."

After hearing this, Black Zetsu just nodded slightly, and his body sank into the ground little by little.

But just after his lower body had sunk into the ground, he suddenly stopped and reminded Uchiha Obito.

"Kirigakure, Konoha, and Sunagakure will hold a joint Chunin Exam in a while, and the location is set at Whirlpool Island."

"I guess the villages of these three parties will be in a state of temporary emptiness. Should we do that?"

Uchiha Obito hesitated for a moment after hearing this, but finally shook his head slowly.

"Let's focus on recruiting new members first. If we reveal our purpose too early, we'll probably be targeted by that bastard Kirigakure again. By then, we probably won't have time to recruit new members."

"What about Xiao? Do you want to consider it?"

"Forget it. Yahiko is now the leader of Rain Country. Currently, the exchanges between Rain Country and the other major countries are too frequent. If we are not careful, we will be exposed in advance. Without Nagato, Akatsuki is not worth it for us to do so."

Seeing this, Black Zetsu didn't try to persuade them anymore. He sank down again, ready to contact the other members who had been assigned tasks.

Finally, inside the huge cave.

Only Uchiha Obito was left, sitting alone on the finger of the Outer Path Demon Statue.

One leg was hanging down and swinging slightly, while the other leg was curled up in front of the body, and the body was slightly hunched.

The purple Samsara eye exposed outside the mask stared blankly at the nine closed eyeballs of the golem.

"Lin, it's almost time. Wait a little longer. This hopeless fake world will soon disappear."

'A peaceful world without war is coming soon.'
