"We don't have accurate information about the other side yet, so you should get there as soon as possible."
Pipa Juzo asked.
Where is it located?
After telling Orochimaru and Juzo Biwa the location of Kakuzu, Pain spoke.
"Disband."
In an instant, the spiritual projections of Orochimaru and Juzo Biwa disappeared from the cave.
Within the Land of Fire, two ninjas dressed in red cloud robes moved swiftly forward.
It moved so fast that it almost left a trail of afterimages.
The common people who saw them on the street thought they were seeing things.
On the way, Pipa Juzo asked his partner beside him.
"Hey! Do you think we might end up going back empty-handed again this time?"
In order to find the mysterious person the organization was looking for, Juzo Biwa has been traveling a lot in the Land of Fire during this period.
Orochimaru casually replied, "Maybe!"
Having just finished communicating with Uchiha Sō, he happened to know the other party's current location.
As luck would have it, it was near the place Payne had given it.
Is this a coincidence?
Orochimaru disagreed.
So what is Uchiha Sō planning to do by suddenly "provoking" the Akatsuki organization at this moment?
Didn't they just recently agree to let him infiltrate first?
It seems that the answer to all these mysteries will only be found by meeting him.
After passing through another forest, Orochimaru and Juzo Biwa gradually approached the border between the Land of Fire, the Land of Rain, and the Land of Grass.
While gazing into the distance, Juzo Biwa spoke to Orochimaru.
"This should be the town up ahead, right?"
Orochimaru nodded.
"Yes, that's it."
A moment later, the two arrived in the town.
Having found the black market boss, Pipa Juzo began to inquire.
"Which direction did Kakuzu go?"
The black market boss dared not hide anything and quickly pointed in the direction where Uchiha Sō and Kakuzu had left.
"Lord Kakuzu and Lord Tenji went in that direction."
"Heavenly Emperor..."
Pipa Shizo frowned.
"Are bounty hunters all this arrogant now?"
At this moment, Orochimaru's expression was strange, as if he had realized that this so-called "Heavenly Emperor" was very likely Uchiha Sō.
So, it seems that I had mocked him in front of him before.
They even called him a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur).
Will this guy hold a grudge?
Orochimaru said with a grim face, "Let's go!"
After leaving the town, the two sped off in the direction the black market boss had pointed.
Before long, they noticed that the distant horizon was covered with dark clouds and lightning.
Pipa Juzo asked in confusion, "Rain clouds?"
"No! There are powerful figures fighting, and Kakuzu should be right there."
Orochimaru, who was familiar with the environment of the Land of Fire, easily determined that the rain clouds in the distance were not formed naturally.
Rather, it was artificially created by the powerful.
……
On the battlefield between Uchiha Zō and Kakuzu.
The mist generated by the collision of Fire Release and Water Release filled the entire forest.
The place became hazy, and the drizzling rain from the sky made the forest seem even more surreal.
Uchiha Xiang was half-squatting on a tree branch, pressing his temples with a headache.
After a fierce battle, he discovered that conventional methods were not very effective in taking the horn.
No wonder he's a ninja who fought against the First Hokage.
That's fucking hard to kill!
Even without using Susanoo, Kakuzu could not be fatally injured even in Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
Kakuzu, in combination with the four masked monsters, can also perform all the ninjutsu of the five elements: water, fire, earth, wind, and lightning.
In regular combat, it is also almost without any weaknesses.
What's even more frustrating is that those four masked monsters can also fly.
Their teamwork was exceptionally smooth.
Even if Uchiha Sho uses two different elemental ninjutsu in a combination attack, the opponent will retaliate in the same way.
"Damn, I've never felt so disgusted with myself."
Uchiha Sho was considering retreating.
Fighting Kakuzu without using Susanoo would be a complete waste of time.
Besides, the opponent's immortality makes them quite difficult to kill.
His purpose this time was simply to create conflict with the Akatsuki organization.
Using this as an excuse, we can invade the Land of Rain, spar with Pain, and discuss cooperation.
At that moment, a masked monster with blue markings on its face discovered Uchiha Elephant's trail and spat out a ball of lightning.
"hehe!"
With a mocking smile, Uchiha Sho leaped into the air, dodging the incoming lightning attack.
Lightning Release ninjutsu is so fast that it is actually very difficult to counter.
After all, the principle that speed is the ultimate weapon in martial arts still applies across the entire world.
After landing on the ground, Uchiha Xiang used his Sharingan to observe his surroundings.
Chapter 99, Dawn and the Divine Court of Heaven
The movements of the four masked monsters were quickly brought under Uchiha Sō's control.
However, the location of Kakuzu's true form seemed to have vanished without a trace, and was never detected by Uchiha Zō.
"Did this guy burrow underground?"
Uchiha Sō looked wary, his sharp gaze sweeping over the ground beneath his feet.
Some advanced Earth Release ninjutsu techniques allow one to conceal their chakra fluctuations by diving deep enough, using the earth as cover, as if they had become one with the earth.
However, based on careful observation during the previous battle, Uchiha Zō had already discovered it.
The four masked monsters released from Kakuzu's body, though swift and capable of flying and running, could not ultimately stray too far from Kakuzu's true form.
Therefore, by observing the locations of these four masked monsters, Uchiha Sō could roughly deduce the possible hiding place of Kakuzu's true form.
However, at this point, Uchiha Sō had no intention of continuing to entangle with Kakuzu.
Now that Kakuzu has gone underground, he will take this opportunity to withdraw from the battle.
Just then, a strong surge of chakra suddenly struck, startling Uchiha Sō.
Two exceptionally large streams of chakra were approaching him at an alarming speed.
This amount of chakra undoubtedly signifies the arrival of two powerful figures.
The opponent was so fast that by the time Uchiha Sō became aware of it, they were already within arm's reach.
In an instant, two figures appeared around like ghosts, forming a triangle with Kakuzu's location, firmly surrounding Uchiha Samurai.
After recognizing the two individuals, Uchiha Sho thought to himself, "Damn, how did Orochimaru get involved too?"
Standing atop a large tree charred black by a lightning ninjutsu, Juzo Biwa stood with one hand on his hip, a mocking smile playing on his lips, and said sarcastically.
"Kakuzu, didn't you always brag about fighting the First Hokage? How come you can't even handle this guy?"
Upon hearing this, Kakuzu slowly poked his head out from underground, his voice deep and powerful.
"This guy is no ordinary person."
Orochimaru stared intently at Uchiha Sō, who was wearing a black dragon mask, a slight smile playing on his lips. He surveyed the battlefield and slowly spoke.
"Those who are equally proficient in the five elemental ninjutsu are few and far between, even in the entire ninja world."
"Orochimaru recognized me? Is it Juzo Biwa from Kirigakure?"
Surrounded in the middle, Uchiha Sho showed no panic whatsoever. Instead, he calmly scrutinized the three members of the Akatsuki organization.
He disliked being looked down upon, so he leaped and landed steadily on a branch of a large tree.
Facing the members of Akatsuki who seemed to have victory in their grasp, he spoke slowly, his voice carrying a hint of amusement.
"Not bad, your organization has quite a few strong members."
Pipa Juzo snorted coldly, his tone full of disdain.
