……

It was evening.

The gate of the base was open. It was pitch black outside, it was raining heavily, and the temperature was a bit low.

The members of Akatsuki were all sitting on the sofa. Some of them were gloating, some looked indifferent, and some looked very angry.

Hitani walked over and sat down:”What happened?”

“Sasuke ran away.”Pein replied

“Ran away?”Hito was stunned for a moment.

Didn’t Sasuke seem to be fine during the day? How could he suddenly run away after an afternoon?

“What happened?” Hitani asked.

Kisame next to him sighed:”Kabuto Yakushi resurrected Uchiha Itachi, let Uchiha Itachi and Sasuke talk alone for a while, and then Sasuke ran away. The specific reason is unclear, and the Impure World Uchiha Itachi refused to tell us. He is a dead man, and we can’t do anything to him, so let Kabuto Yakushi cancel his Impure World Reincarnation first.” Hitani understood immediately.

This matter is a bit complicated to explain.

Sasuke killed Itachi before, and learned from Obito that Itachi was for the sake of Konoha’s high-level officials to exterminate the clan, so Sasuke hated Konoha’s high-level officials, so he joined Akatsuki and prepared to take revenge on Konoha’s high-level officials.

However, after talking with Itachi, Itachi had a heart-to-heart talk with Sasuke, telling Sasuke to protect Konoha.

Then… Sasuke, who listened to his brother, ran away.

“It’s normal.” Hitani had no expression on his face.

A wavering traitor like Sasuke couldn’t stay in a certain faction forever. It was only a matter of time before he defected.

“This is a provocation.” Fei Duan was so angry that his teeth itched:”To be honest, I have long disliked that kid, and this time he defected again, leader, we can’t just let it go like this.”

“Of course it can’t be let go.”Pein’s face was also angry.

Defection is a big taboo in the ninja world. Even Konoha will not let go of a traitorous ninja, let alone an organization like Akatsuki that is made up of traitorous ninjas.

The most intolerable thing for a traitorous ninja is a traitorous ninja.

“I’ll go get that guy back.” Kisame stood up with Samehada in his hand.

Pein shook his head:”Although I don’t want to let Sasuke leave, let’s forget it this time.”

“Forget it? Why?”Kisame was puzzled

“Capturing the Eight-Tails and the Nine-Tails is the most important task at this stage, and compared to the Allied Ninja Forces, Sasuke’s defection is obviously nothing.”Pain said:”Besides, are you sure you can capture Sasuke?” Kisame

‘s mouth twitched.

To be honest, he had no confidence.

Sasuke now also has the Mangekyō Sharingan, although not as powerful as his brother Uchiha Itachi, but not weak.

At the beginning, Kisame could be fooled by Uchiha Itachi’s eyes, and he could also be fooled by Sasuke’s Sharingan. If he goes like this, it is a question whether he can defeat Sasuke, let alone capture him back.

“Oh, forget it then.” Kisame sat down again and said,”If I meet him, I will definitely cut him twice.”

“Let’s put Sasuke’s matter aside for now. I want to introduce our main force to you.”Pein looked at the room on the side and said,”Come out.”

He was facing the door to the basement.

The door creaked open and several White Zetsu came out.

“”White Zetsu Army.” Pain introduced to everyone:”The army made of Outer Path Demon Statue, although their IQ is very low, it is more than enough to fight against the Ninja Alliance head-on.”

The White Zetsu Army was originally created by Uchiha Obito (ciff).

However, Pain did not die in this life, so this task was completed by Pain, and Uchiha Obito is still hiding behind the scenes.

“An army made by White Zetsu?” Hidan walked up and circled around White Zetsu:”This thing doesn’t look very powerful? How many of these things are there?”

“One hundred thousand.”Payne replied

“”One hundred thousand!” Everyone was surprised and delighted.

Before, they were worried that Akatsuki didn’t have enough troops to fight against the Allied Ninja Army.

But with these one hundred thousand White Zetsu, it was more than enough to fight on the front battlefield.

And with the addition of Kabuto Yakushi’s Impure World Reincarnation Army, the number of people on the Akatsuki side was no longer inferior to that of the Allied Ninja Army.

“It seems that we are fully prepared, so when will we attack the ninja alliance?” Kisame looked eager to try.

“I plan to leave tomorrow.” Payne looked at Ritani and said,”In the meantime, Mr. Ritani, I would like you to stay at the base.”

“I stay behind?” Hitani was a little surprised.

He was the strongest ninja in Akatsuki now, so logically, shouldn’t he be fighting on the front line?

“”Yes.” Pain nodded:”In the early stages of the war, the other side will definitely not go all out. In order to prevent the ninja coalition from having means that we can’t think of, I want to keep you for emergencies.”

The implication is to keep Hitani as a trump card, and when they really can’t handle it, let Hitani make a comeback.

When fighting such a large-scale war, it is indeed impossible to use all the strength at once, as it is easy to be targeted by the other side.

In this regard, Pain still has some strategic thinking. After all, he has experienced two Ninja World Wars.

“Mr. Hitani is unwilling?” Payne asked

“No.” Rigu shrugged:”Then I will stay.”

“Then I’ll trouble you.”Pain looked at the others:”Everyone go back and get ready. We will attack together tomorrow. This will be a protracted war. Once the war starts, it may be a fight to the death.” In fact, Pain thought too much. (To read exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

The Fourth Ninja World War, including the killing of Kaguya, lasted only three days in total. It was not a protracted war at all.

That’s right, this war that affects the life and death of the entire ninja world lasted only three days.

The battle rhythm in the Naruto world is very fast. Battles that may take several years to resolve in other worlds can be accelerated dozens of times here.

Because there is no tactics in the Naruto war, they just go up and fight hard, without switching to rest, and fight to the death.

There is no tactics, only a brute force fighting method, which means that the war in this world is destined not to be too stalemate.[]

“Mr. Hitani, the base will be handed over to you while we are away. Payne said again.

“Yes.”Higu nodded.

“Then let’s go prepare first.” Pein and everyone else got up and went back to their rooms.

Hitani sat on the sofa and thought.

He was wondering if he could use his Bankai Zanpakutō before Kaguya came out.

The end of this battle would basically be a Six Paths-level battle. With his current combat power, he would definitely not be a Six Paths-level opponent.

If he couldn’t use his Bankai Zanpakutō at that time, Six Paths Naruto or Six Paths Sasuke could easily take his life.

With what he did, Six Paths Naruto would definitely not let him go.

So if he couldn’t use his Bankai Zanpakutō, he would definitely die at that time.

Bankai became a necessary condition for his survival.

……

……

There is a huge cave on the underground floor of the base.

In the middle of the cave is an Outer Path Golem, and below is a huge hollowed-out pit, in which stand 100,000 White Zetsu.

Kabuto Yakushi sat on the edge of the pit, looking at these White Zetsu with interest.

He was also surprised that the Akatsuki organization could create such a large non-human army.

As a research maniac, he wanted to study how the White Zetsu were produced.

But he had asked Pain before, and Pain refused to mention any information about the White Zetsu army.

Although Kabuto Yakushi was very interested, he did not dare to push Pain any further, so he had to give up.

“It feels a bit like a culture of Hashirama’s cells.”Kabuto Yakushi suddenly discovered something.

White Zetsu has a life breath similar to that of trees.

Kabuto Yakushi had studied Hashirama’s cells with Orochimaru and was very familiar with this smell.

In fact, he was right. The White Zetsu army was the product of a part of Hashirama’s cells.

“I knew you were here.”Hitoshi suddenly appeared behind Kabuto Yakushi like a ghost.

“Mr. Hitani.” Yakushi Kabuto turned around and smiled at Hitani:”I’m just studying your White Zetsu army. I heard that you are going to attack the ninja coalition tomorrow. Don’t you need to prepare?”

“I will not join the war for now.”Higu looked at the White Zetsu army in the giant pit.

To be honest, seeing such a large army with his own eyes, Higu was a little shocked.

In the giant pit, all the White Zetsu were motionless, crowded together, each with the same expression on their face, standing in the same posture.

If you have intensive phobia, you will probably die on the spot.

“Mr. Hitani, is there something you want to talk to me about?” asked the pharmacist.

“I do have something to ask you.” Hitani nodded,”Is Orochimaru really dead?”

“……Yes.”Yup.” Kabuto Yakushi nodded with some sorrow:”It is certain that he was killed by Sasuke. I collected the body with my own hands.”

Although Kabuto Yakushi took away all of Orochimaru’s power and his strength was sublimated, he still didn’t want Orochimaru to die.

How to describe this feeling?

It’s like the relationship between a child and his father.

The father died, and the child got his father’s inheritance and became rich, but the child didn’t want his father to die.

Although Kabuto Yakushi didn’t regard Orochimaru as his father, the twisted emotion wouldn’t be much different.

“Why did Mr. Hitani suddenly ask this?

“Are you sure Orochimaru is really dead?” Hitani asked back:”Is it possible for him to be resurrected? I don’t mean the resurrection of the Impure World Reincarnation, but the real resurrection of the Impure World Reincarnation.”
