Chapter 1064: The Uninvited Guest
While Su Xiao was thinking about this, Obito suddenly stood up.
— Someone broke through the barrier.
— Shinobi? Su Xiao asked and thought that Rose might have revealed the location of the Akatsuki base.
— Yes, but only one.
— One ... " muttered Su Xiao. He was a little confused. If Rose revealed the location of the base, it would not be just one shinobi, but an entire army that would come here.
Because of this, he recalled an event and realized that the bait had finally worked.
— An uninvited guest has arrived~, " Karin's faint voice rang out.
She came out to them, holding on to the wall.
— The chakra... Very deranged, and I... feel something familiar about her, " she continued, barely able to stand.
It hasn't recovered yet.
— Let's go take a look.
Su Xiao and Obito immediately left the base.
----
Above the Akatsuki underground base, in the valley.
This valley was shaped like a pool.
In the valley, there was a skeleton of a large beast, and a figure wearing a dark red robe with a hood on its head was standing on top of this skeleton.
— Is it here? As expected of Akatsuki, they actually deployed such a defense in such a short period of time, " the red-robed figure muttered and chuckled.
He felt the barrier. Although it was small and wasn't built for defense, it did an excellent job of its primary function of detecting chakra.
*Whew~*
Obito appeared in front of the huge skeleton out of nowhere. He still had the same mask on his face and the Akatsuki cloak on his body.
— Long time no see, Obito, " the figure on the beast skeleton said and looked down at Obito. "Or should I still call you Madara," the figure said in a slightly mocking tone.
Obito looked at the man. He was very young, wearing glasses, and had purple skin around his eyes.
He was pale and there were cracks all over his body, making him look more like broken pottery.
This figure wearing a dark red cloak was slightly different from ordinary people. It had a "tail", and this tail was clearly a live snake that grew out of its navel.
Obito's pupils narrowed. He recognized the man, but he still felt a little unsure.
— How did you find this place? " asked Obito.
— As a spy, I had already visited many countries, and I was, after all, a member of Akatsuki. Don't underestimate my intelligence network.
The goal of this bespectacled man was unknown, but he clearly had no intention of doing anything wrong.
— I was once a spy for Sasori, you know.
This time, Obito confirmed the identity of this guy. In the past, he was a spy for Sasori, and later transferred to Orochimaru.
This guy is Kabuto.
Kabuto's childhood was very difficult, and from the very childhood he was forced to constantly be on the run and managed to face betrayal several times.
He was initially a Konoha spy, but was later captured by Sasori, who left poison in his body.
Because of this, he became Sasori's spy and was supposed to become Orochimaru's man, however Orochimaru helped him remove the poison from his body and eventually he became his subordinate.
Up to this point, he had been a spy for many factions, and being a double agent and even a triple agent was the norm for him.
After Orochimaru was "killed by Sasuke", Kabuto injected Orochimaru's blood into his body. Thanks to his understanding of cells and what Orochimaru left behind, Kabuto successfully mastered Orochimaru's power.
In addition, Kabuto, under the guidance of the White Snake Sage, mastered senjutsu and the snake analog Sage Mode.
Previously, he always had a fake smile on his face, but now he didn't wear that smile because he realized that he wasn't himself anymore.
Right now, Kabuto was only an exact copy of Orochimaru. His level of knowledge was on par with Orochimaru's, but their research directions were different.
Moreover, because of what he received in Ryuchi Cave, it was now more appropriate to call him " Kabuto Orochimaru».
After Obito recognized Kabuto, he immediately knew that something was wrong.
Given this guy's personality, finding their base didn't bode well.
Thinking of this, Obito immediately rushed forward, wanting to get rid of Kabuto.
Kabuto smiled and immediately jumped down from the skeleton, and after landing, he started folding the hand seals.
*Rumble...*
The ground shook, and four coffins emerged from the ground.
The coffins were placed vertically, causing the four lids to immediately fall to the ground, revealing a view of the four bodies.
There was a corpse in each of the coffins, and they were dressed in the same clothes as Kabuto, in dark red robes.
In these coffins were the corpses of Nagato, Kakuzu, Sasori, and Itachi Uchiha.
— Resurrection of the Wicked World... Obito muttered, his pupil dilating. Now he sensed danger. If Kabuto can really resurrect these people, even if they don't have 100% of their power, but only 70%, it will be enough for him to eventually die.
Kakuzu and Sasori were not a big problem, but Nagato and Itachi were very serious opponents.
There was no doubt about Nagato's strength, but Itachi was very good at hiding his strength. The last time he fought Sasuke, not to mention the fact that he'd been giving in as much as he could, he hadn't used even 30% of his strength.
If he wanted to kill Sasuke, he would have killed him in a second.
Nagato never attacked Konoha because he was afraid of Itachi, which clearly indicated Itachi's considerable strength.
At that time, Sasuke was at the level of a jonin, a weak Kage at most, and then only because of Orochimaru's help. Without Orochimaru, Sasuke would have been at the level of a normal Jongin at that moment.
Right now, Kabuto had actually exposed Nagato and Itachi's corpses to the public, which really scared Obito.
— This is a forbidden technique that only the second Hokage and Orochimaru knew, no, including me, only three people have mastered it, but I have become the best of all of them.
Yakushi's Kabuto was no longer the Kabuto he was in the past.
After he became much stronger, he started walking with his head held high.
— All of this is just a little show that will convince you of my abilities, " Kabuto said and placed his hand on the coffin that Itachi was in. "Don't worry, I'm not here to fight, and that guy up there shouldn't show such strong killing intent," Kabuto said and looked up at Su Xiao on the hilltop.
— You bastard have become stronger, " Su Xiao replied, looking at Kabuto.
When he first saw Kabuto, he always had a fake smile on his face, and he wanted to set a trap for Su Xiao together with Orochimaru, but Su Xiao ended up revealing it and cutting off one of his ears.
— That's funny, Mr. Byakuya, " Kabuto replied without a trace of mockery. Although Su Xiao's left arm was damaged, Su Xiao's sullen nature was too deeply etched in his memory.
One moment he might be laughing, and the next he might cut off your ear.
Fortunately, his ear had long since recovered.
— Stop talking nonsense, what is your goal? Obito asked. He clearly wasn't going to let Kabuto go, but he didn't know if Su Xiao would help him.
— I heard that you declared war on the five great Shinobi villages, and also that the Akatsuki killed the fourth Raikage and the fifth Mizukage. I want to join forces with you.
Kabuto's intelligence network was not inferior to that of the major villages, so he knew very well what had happened during the five Kage meeting, but he had no idea if the people from Akatsuki would cooperate with him.
Fortunately, he had a trump card up his sleeve, but this situation was different from what he expected to see in the end.
There were other people in the base besides Obito, so it would be best if he didn't use this trump card unless absolutely necessary.
