Chapter 661: Chasing
In the Land of Hot Water.
Somewhere deep in the canyon.
Hyōketsu, who is wearing a black windbreaker with red cloud pattern, officially met with Taki, Orochimaru and new member, Hidan.
“Is this my new teammate? Why are you wearing an ice mask?”
Hidan, who looks different with his silver hair combed back, looks up and down at Hyōketsu, snorted and asked, “Hey, do you believe in Jashin?”
Hyōketsu replied coldly: “If you can kill these two people, I will believe in your Jashin.”
“Huh?”
Hidan looked at Hyōketsu, then looked at Orochimaru and Taki, then said with a weird expression, “Didn't you say that members of the organization are forbidden to kill each other?”
“Don’t listen to his nonsense.”
Taki stared at Hidan, who began to stir, then looked towards Hyōketsu, and said, “Orochimaru and I will go to the Land of Water to perform x mission, Hyōketsu, I will leave this guy to you.”
“The Land of Water?” Hyōketsu looked at Taki in confusion.
“We’re going to kill...”
Taki started to talk, but was interrupted by Orochimaru, “Well, this is our mission, and it has nothing to do with them.”
The mission of Taki and Orochimaru is to go to the Land of Water to assassinate Yondaime Mizukage. To be precise, it was to get Yondaime Mizukage to die under Gentle Fist to provoke the relationship between Kirigakure and Konoha, and thus make the situation in the Shinobi World turbulent!
After Obito proposed this plan, it was introduced to Deva Path Pain through White Zetsu’s clone, and Deva Path Pain agreed to this plan on the spot. If it wasn’t for Orochimaru and Taki need to hand over Hidan, they might have already arrived at the Land of Water.
“Mysterious... what are you talking about?” Hidan carried his three-section scythe, looking down on Orochimaru and Taki extremely arrogantly.
Although the two sides fought against each other before, and Hidan also used his Death Controlling Possessed Blood, Orochimaru’s shedding skin and Body Revival Technique really disgusted him, but even so, Hidan couldn’t just calm down.
Orochimaru glanced at Hidan, then turned around and left.
Hidan’s ability is indeed terrifying. As long as he gets the opponent's blood, he can exchange injury for injury or even death for death!
If it was an ordinary Shinobi, even Jinchuriki would have to suffer under his technique, but who makes Orochimaru a sly individual that has more than one plan to fall back on, and all kinds of immortality and regeneration abilities?
As far as the degree of disgustingness is concerned, Hidan can’t keep up with Orochimaru.
And in the battle, as Hidan got Orochimaru’s blood, Orochimaru also got Hidan’s blood!
It’s obviously who lost in this exchange at a glance.
“Let’s go!” Orochimaru walked forward unhurriedly, with a graceful figure.
At the border of the Land of Fire and the Land of Hot Water.
Thirteen Byakugan Shinobi quickly crossed the border and headed towards the Land of Hot Water.
This group is the squad composed of Hyuga Clan’s Branch House’s Elite Jonin sent by Hiashi to hunt down Orochimaru!
And the one leading this group is Neji’s father, Hizashi!
The figures of thirteen people flickered, and they were speeding forward in the dense forest in ghost-like manners.
“After searching for so long, we finally found Orochimaru’s whereabouts. Everyone, buck up. We definitely can’t let him go!” Hizashi exclaimed quite excitedly.
“Hizashi, according to the intelligence, Orochimaru seems to have a companion wearing sunglasses next to him.”
“Whoever he is, don’t take him lightly.”
These thirteen people are all Elite Jonin, so they are prideful and arrogant. Even if the opponent is the one of the legendary Sannin, Orochimaru, they are not afraid, let alone a Shinobi with sunglasses who appeared out of nowhere!
Hyuga Clan’s Shinobi are all experts at tracking. A few days later, they followed the traces left by Orochimaru and Taki’s departure towards the coast, and came to the Land of Hot Water’s coastal pier.
“What is Orochimaru doing here?”
“Could it be that he is going to the Land of Water?”
“Let’s find him first!”
Assigned by Hizashi, these thirteen people use Byakugan in the dock to conduct a carpet-like search.
At this time, Orochimaru and Taki have successfully rented a sea-going vessel, but because the destination is the closed Land of Water, there is some disagreement on the price.
It’s not that Orochimaru and Taki are stingy, but it is that Akatsuki’s funds are in the hands of Konan and Kakuzu, so they don’t have much funds in their hands.
As for using their own money?
Taki is a shadow clone, and he has no money.
Although Orochimaru is rich, his money is invested in secret research bases all over the Shinobi World, so how can he use his private money for mission?
Besides, they won’t be reimbursed!
After haggling for a long time, Orochimaru became a little impatient. Just as he planned to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, White Zetsu’s clone suddenly emerged from the ground.
“Not good!”
White Zetsu’s clone said anxiously, “There are more than a dozen Hyuga Clan’s Shinobi here, and their target seems to be you!”
