Being in Konoha, a disgrace to the Uchiha clan.

Explosions are not art.

Only puppets are the eternal art!

If Hiruko can't stop Uchiha Yoru's foot, then let's switch to a harder material.

Uchiha Yoru, one day I will trample you under my feet!

……

Leaf.

Ye Feng did not immediately go to the Land of Earth to keep the appointment.

Anyway, with the beautiful mount, Tashin-hime, and Mabui's Heavenly Delivery Technique, going to the Land of Earth is easy.

There's still some time before the new daimyo of the Land of Earth takes office. If I go and cause trouble now before they've prepared everything, wouldn't I miss out on a lot of exciting things?

Moreover, he had another matter to attend to while he stayed in the village.

That is, Orochimaru is back.

No longer as a rogue ninja, but with a different profession.

Director of the Konoha Ninja Research Institute.

Part-time life sciences.

Secretly pursuing the path to immortality.

At the same time, research is being conducted on various weapons that can store chakra.

Orochimaru was greeted with enthusiastic cheers from the villagers as soon as he appeared.

Each one of them was sincere and heartfelt.

Such a scene, such treatment, was something Orochimaru had never encountered before, nor had he ever imagined...

Snakes always prefer to stay in the shadows.

This made Orochimaru feel a little uncomfortable.

However, after glancing at Uchiha Yoruichi beside him, Orochimaru restrained himself.

Isn't he the director of the Konoha Research Institute?

With Ye Fengjun around, his plan for immortality can be implemented more smoothly.

From now on, there's no need to conduct experiments secretly anymore. If you want test subjects, the Anbu will send prisoners from other villages. They can provide whatever chakra nature you want.

With such treatment, what is there to complain about?

However, a single sentence could remove the label of a rogue ninja from him and at the same time earn him the love and respect of all the villagers of Konoha.

If Sarutobi-sensei were still alive, he would definitely be driven to death by anger.

In Orochimaru's view, Uchiha Yoru's current status in Konoha is like that of a god.

If God says you are on the side of justice, then no matter what heinous things you have done, you are still righteous.

If God says you are evil, you will be condemned by everyone in an instant, and even a single spit from each person could drown you.

Glancing at the spacious and bright laboratory behind him, Orochimaru couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Ye Feng waved his hand, signaling the crowd to disperse.

He turned to Orochimaru and said.

"Orochimaru, your decision to come back was absolutely the right one."

"You now have your first task."

"That is to research and improve the Impure World Reincarnation, reduce the release conditions of the Impure World Reincarnation, and extend the duration of this forbidden technique."

"Even try to make them permanent!"

Ok?

Permanent existence?

Orochimaru's pupils contracted.

Doesn't permanent existence equate to a different kind of immortality?

As expected of Lord Ye Feng, he immediately pointed him towards another path to immortality!

Chapter 192 Akatsuki vs. Ye Feng: A Great Battle is Imminent

Orochimaru had studied the forbidden technique of Impure World Reincarnation before.

But sneaking around is never as convenient as being open and aboveboard like this.

Even in the Village of Sound, the research facilities are less than one-tenth of those in the Village of Konoha.

Konoha is currently at war with other ninja villages, and there are countless prisoners of war every day, so there is no shortage of experimental materials.

With Uchiha Yefeng's occasional guidance, he believed he would go further and further on his journey to explore the true meaning of life.

I must work harder so as not to disappoint Ye Fengjun.

Orochimaru licked his lips excitedly as he looked at the several pale-faced prisoners of war recently brought in by the Anbu.

Not long after.

A series of piercing screams then emanated from the laboratory.

Unlike in the past, the villagers passing by did not feel uncomfortable at all; on the contrary, they showed a relieved expression on their faces.

“My brother died on the battlefield. These enemy ninjas cruelly murdered him and desecrated his body. They deserved to die!”

"That's right, these enemy ninjas deserve to die. It's an honor for them to be Orochimaru's test subjects before they die!"

"However, Lord Yefeng is still the most powerful. Even the former Sannin, Lord Orochimaru, is willing to work for him."

"With Lord Yefeng in Konoha, the village is growing stronger and stronger!"

"Long live the Uchiha! Long live Lord Yefeng!"

The cheers were deafening.

When the message reached Orochimaru in the laboratory, it made him squint his long, narrow eyes.

"Long live the Uchiha clan?"

"This is truly an unprecedented weather phenomenon. Sarutobi-sensei probably never imagined this day would come."

"The Uchiha clan, which he desperately wanted to suppress, has now become the pride of the entire Hidden Leaf Village."

"Pity!"

Just then, a figure slowly emerged from the shadows.

He wears glasses and has white hair.

Behind the glasses was a refined, clean-cut, and handsome face.

It was Kabuto Yakushi, Orochimaru's capable assistant.

"Lord Orochimaru," Kabuto called out respectfully.

Orochimaru didn't even turn his head before asking the question.

"How's that organization doing?"

“Our people have already discovered their tracks in the Land of Earth, but the other side is very wary, and we haven’t been able to get any specific information from them.”

"However, Lord Yefeng has already gone to the Land of Earth, all alone."

Orochimaru's eyes narrowed instantly, a glint of excitement flashing within them.

Did Uchiha Yefeng go to the Land of Earth alone?

Has Ye Fengjun become this powerful?

It seems that another fierce battle is about to take place in the Land of Earth!

I just don't know who will win between Ye Fengjun and that organization.

Really looking forward to it!

Orochimaru felt a surge of excitement as he recalled how Uchiha Yefeng had kicked through the Akatsuki base.

Back then, I suffered a loss myself; now, I'm watching my former companions suffer. (7105)

Of course, my mood will be different.

However, the power possessed by Payne's eyes was also mysterious and formidable.

The only way to determine who is stronger between Uchiha Yefeng and him is after they face off directly.

The Land of Earth.

The Akatsuki members transformed the Daimyo's residence in the Land of Earth into a maze of traps, making countless preparations.

However, Uchiha Yoru was in no hurry upon entering the Land of Earth. He rode on the Tashin-hime version of the mount, accompanied by Mabui, enjoying the scenery along the way.

There was not a trace of tension on his face.

When passing through villages and towns, we also have time to play cards, stroll around, and experience the local customs and culture.

They seemed completely unconcerned about the impending great war, as if they were simply visiting the Land of Earth.

When the intelligence reached the Akatsuki, the remaining members of the Akatsuki were all in an uproar.

Kisame Hoshigaki: "This Uchiha Yoru is far too arrogant!"

"When he gets here, I'll show him what I'm capable of!"

Kisame Hoshigaki brandished his Samehada and said coldly.

"Brother Sasori 510, I'll show that Uchiha Ye Feng the art of explosion!"

Deidara also said excitedly.

Sasori, standing to the side, merely glanced at Deidara without saying a word.

He knew Deidara's art was powerful, but Uchiha Yefeng was no ordinary person!

Underestimating him will lead to great losses!
