Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 391 Fat Sheep Snake Uncle

The rolling hills and ravines are intertwined, and the wind, carrying the scent of earth, freely passes through the gaps between the hills.

Sunlight streamed through the clouds, illuminating the hilly area, and people basked in its warm glow, feeling the bounty of the earth.

A passing traveler walks alone through this hilly area, seemingly exploring its unique natural scenery.

The newcomer was none other than Uchiha Toshiro. Since parting ways with Pakura, he had resumed his journey of collecting tailed beast chakra.

Our first stop was, of course, Takigakure Village.

Using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, he easily learned the identity of the current Seven-Tails Jinchuriki from several deceased high-ranking members of Takigakure.

The subsequent operations went very smoothly.

He obtained the Seven-Tails' chakra without alerting anyone.

His current target is naturally Iwagakure (Hidden Stone Village).

"Who is it?"

While admiring the scenery around him, Toshiro suddenly noticed something and turned his gaze to a large tree beside him.

"Hehehe! Toshiro-kun is still so perceptive!"

As Toshiro's gaze locked onto the tree, two figures, one tall and one short, emerged from behind what had previously seemed like an ordinary tree.

One of them, upon appearing, stared intently at Toshiro's figure with his golden vertical pupils.

The way she looked at Toshiro was like that of a ravenous viper, her eyes filled with greed and desire.

"It's Orochimaru-senpai! It's been a long time!"

Watching the other person lick their lips as always, Toshiro's eyes twitched involuntarily.

"Staring at me like that the moment we met, it seems you've completed your transformation from an immortal to a living corpse!"

With that look in his eyes, he knew without even thinking what the other person was thinking.

Isn't it just lusting after his body?

However, he really wanted to tell Snake, "Boss, I've been waiting so long, my forty-meter-long sword is itching to be used!"

"This person over there looks unfamiliar!"

Ignoring Orochimaru's gaze, Toshiro turned his attention to the short, bespectacled figure beside him.

"This is my assistant, Kabuto!"

Upon hearing Orochimaru introduce himself, Kabuto pushed up his glasses and carefully examined Toshiro in front of him.

"Nice to meet you, Lord Toshiro!"

Please continue to take care of me in the future!

Out of instinct, Kabuto carefully examined Toshiro, then bowed slightly and gave Toshiro a very humble bow.

"It seems Orochimaru-senpai has found a very good assistant!"

Dou is only sixteen or seventeen years old now, with a touch of childishness on his face. But through the eyes on the bridge of his nose, you can see that there is no trace of the innocence or naivety that a young man of this age should have in his eyes.

Instead, it exudes a gloomy atmosphere and a deeply hidden darkness.

"Hehe! Kabuto is indeed a good helper!"

"With his help, I was able to successfully complete that ninjutsu!"

Orochimaru glanced at Kabuto slightly, feeling extremely fortunate that he had managed to take Kabuto from Danzo.

The other party's talent did not disappoint him.

"Speaking of which, Toshiro's whereabouts are really hard to find. He actually went all the way to the border of the Land of Earth. If it weren't for the help of the organization, I really wouldn't have been able to find you!"

As he spoke, Orochimaru inadvertently uttered the word "organization," then his eyes darted around, fixed on Toshiro's every move.

It seemed as if they were trying to read something from the other person's face.

"Nothing much, I've just been a bit bored lately, so I went out for a stroll."

"This idea was inspired by a friend of Orochimaru-senpai."

With a laugh, Toshiro quickly brushed the topic off.

However, although he didn't show it on his face, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart if he was using the Akatsuki organization to find him.

Was it because I had registered with Obito or was it just a coincidence? If it was the latter, that would be fine, but if it was the former, I would have to be more vigilant.

"Yeah…"

Seeing no expression on Toshiro's face, Orochimaru narrowed his eyes and began to ponder the meaning behind the other's reaction.

Since Toshiro knows about the Rinnegan, he must know about Akatsuki. The question is, how much does Toshiro actually know about Akatsuki, and...?

"I wonder... what important matter Orochimaru-senpai has come to see me about?"

Looking at Orochimaru's shifty eyes, Toshiro asked the question knowingly.

"Well... it's about another transaction... concerning the Rinnegan!"

After defecting from Konoha, he first found himself a place to stay and incidentally made Kabuto his assistant.

The other party was not only of great help to me in medical ninjutsu, but also a master in intelligence gathering.

With Toshiro's hint, he quickly found clues about the Akatsuki organization and learned that they really did possess the Rinnegan.

When the other party followed the clues he left behind and came to his door, upon seeing the ripples in the other party's eyes, he immediately had the idea of ​​taking over the other party's body, not even caring that his own resurrection was not yet perfect.

Although he failed in the end, he successfully joined the organization and secretly observed and collected information about the Rinnegan.

Now that he had completed the Reanimation Jutsu, how could he possibly hold back? He immediately sought out Toshiro, wanting to see if the other man had any information he desired.

The information was provided by the other party; the Uchiha are also a family that uses eye techniques, so it's perfectly normal for them to have this kind of intelligence.

"Shall we make a deal?"

Great deal!

Toshiro couldn't help but smirk.

He loved trading. As one of the Legendary Sannin and a master of forbidden techniques, the other party had a lot of good stuff, while his intelligence was essentially a free trade.

No matter how you look at it, he's not losing out!

"I do have information related to the Rinnegan, but the price..."

Just like Orochimaru coveted Sasuke later, Orochimaru is now coveting the Rinnegan. With this as leverage, how could Toshiro not make exorbitant demands?

"Hehe~"

As Toshiro recited the names of various ninjutsu and secret techniques, Orochimaru simply chuckled twice.

"Toshiro-kun has quite an appetite!"

"Furthermore, I never expected that you, as an Uchiha, would be interested in the power of the First Hokage! That truly surprises me!"

Orochimaru licked his lips again, his expression turning slightly unpleasant. The way she had just looked at him was just like how the gamblers looked at Tsunade when she entered a casino, which made him very unhappy.

Moreover, the other party was far too greedy, actually reciting the names of several secret ninjutsu at once, including Flying Thunder God Technique, Reanimation Jutsu, and the First Hokage's cells, among others.

Does he think he's a fat sheep? They want to fleece him!
