"Death? Are you going to kill me? Can you do it?"

Orochimaru said as he looked at Jiraiya who was about to take action.

Orochimaru had fought against Jiraiya more than once or twice, and naturally, with his superior strength, he won more than he lost. However, as time went on, Jiraiya became stronger with the help of Myoboku Mountain, and Orochimaru, knowing that he could no longer win, rarely fought with Jiraiya. In the rare conflicts, they were all for a reason, and neither side ever wanted to kill the other.

Jiraiya shook his head and said, "If I really want to kill you, I have a better chance if I join forces with Danzo. But I don't trust him. It's always worrying to have a teammate who might betray me at any time during a battle..."

Among the "Three Ninjas", Orochimaru is still the strongest. However, since his spirit was severely damaged by the Reincarnation Technique, he was defeated by Uchiha Itachi, and then severely injured by the Shikigami Sealing Technique of the Third Hokage. Now he is in a weak period after performing the Reincarnation Technique, and is no match for Jiraiya at all. He had to be cautious in his prime, and with his current combat power, his chances of winning are slim.

Unfortunately, as one of the "Three Ninjas", Orochimaru would never show weakness at this time.

"Danzo? With your personality, you would probably be grateful to him even if he schemed against you until your death. Did Tsunade ask you to come this time? You are still good at ordering your companions around as always! However, I am very unhappy to be bullied like a soft persimmon one after another!"

After that, Orochimaru, who had rich experience in combat, quickly used the summoning technique, and his unique secret technique to kill the chaotic snakes was quickly released. Several ferocious giant snakes appeared out of thin air, slithering forward, and attacked Jiraiya. Orochimaru knew very well that in his current state, it was unlikely that he could defeat Jiraiya with his strength. The key to escape was that Jiraiya, who cared about the old friendship, would not kill him at all. No matter what the other party's purpose was, as long as he dealt with it well, the chance of escape was still great.

Faced with the sudden attack, Jiraiya jumped up and calmly avoided the impact of the giant snake.

"I originally wanted to have a good talk with you, but since you don't mean to, forget it. I really shouldn't have had any hope in you. Let me see how strong you are now..."

Orochimaru never thought that several summoned giant snakes could hurt Jiraiya, so he took this opportunity, opened his mouth wide, and the extremely sharp Kusanagi sword slowly stretched out, and then the hilt was held in Orochimaru's hand!

"If you have anything to say, wait until the winner is decided!"

…

Danzo Shimura looked at the corpse lying at his feet with an expressionless and indifferent attitude, which made it impossible for his subordinates to observe how bad Danzo's mood was at the moment.

Danzo had imagined many times how much changes this strategic-level ninjutsu like Kotoamatsukami would bring to himself and the ninja world. Uchiha Shisui once wanted to use this ninjutsu to save the Uchiha, the strongest family in the ninja world, which was on the verge of extinction. However, this poor way of using it made Danzo feel disdainful, so he snatched Uchiha Shisui's Sharingan without hesitation.

Since he believed that Kotoamatsukami's value was higher than that of the entire Uchiha clan, Danzo would definitely not allow this precious ninjutsu to be wasted meaninglessly. However, he had never found a suitable opportunity, and those mediocre and incompetent people were simply not worthy of being dealt with by Kotoamatsukami. Even if it was the position of Hokage that he had coveted, Danzo had always believed that he would wait for that day sooner or later. With his own layout, this was a natural thing. According to Kotoamatsukami's buffer time, he could only use it two or three times in his lifetime, and each time it was more valuable. He finally waited for a target that he thought was valuable, but he didn't expect this result.

"Put this body away." At this point, Danzo Shimura was helpless. However, the road ahead was still long, and it was not time to give up yet.

"Since you gave up the chance to reach the top with me, then wait for the fire of wrath to fall. Death is not the end of everything!"

That's right, in this world, death is not the end, and eternal peace no longer exists from the moment the Second Hokage used the summoning technique to create the Impure World Reincarnation. Looking at this human puppet that tricked Danzo into using Kotoamatsukami once, Danzo secretly made up his mind. Without Kotoamatsukami, there are still ways to steal wisdom. Unfortunately, Shimura Danzo, who is not proficient in the Impure World Reincarnation, does not understand that this technique's control over the Impure World Body is not so perfect.

On the other side, Pharmacist Kabuto weighed the reagent bottle in his hand with a smug look on his face. Two scarlet eyeballs were floating in the potion, and the three magatama in the pupils were clearly visible.

"I didn't expect it to be so smooth. It feels like a dream."

What is the most valuable resource in this world? Talent, but precious talent is hard to come by. Due to limitations in education, technology and even qualifications, there are only a handful of truly indispensable talents. But apart from these, what is the most precious thing? Having stayed with Orochimaru for so long, participated in countless experiments, and known many top-secret information, Kabuto Yakushi certainly understands the unique value of the Sharingan.

Unfortunately, by the time Kabuto Yakushi was qualified to participate in these things, the situation in the ninja world had become very clear. The Uchiha clan was exterminated, and except for the two brothers Uchiha Itachi and Sasuke, all the other Sharingans were divided up. Not to mention Uchiha Itachi, no one in this world could take his Sharingan. As for Uchiha Sasuke, that was the soul container that his lord Orochimaru had set his eyes on, so he did not dare to do anything.

Unexpectedly, just when he was about to give up, the Sharingan actually came to him. Orochimaru, who had reserved Sasuke, looked down on Danzo's "collection", and Kabuto, after seeing Danzo's right arm, could no longer hold back his eager heart and decided to take a risk. Otherwise, it would take him forever to wait for Danzo to leave the village.

Kabuto Yakushi, who was willing to take a risk even if Orochimaru was suspicious, finally paid off. After the disguised puppet consumed Danzo Shimura's precious illusion, Kotoamatsukami, Danzo Shimura approached without any preparation. The shell controlled by the Soul Death Technique suddenly attacked Danzo, who had never thought that he would resist after being hit by Kotoamatsukami, and his two eyes on his arm were directly taken away. After Kabuto Yakushi obtained the Sharingan, he activated all the remaining traps, abandoned all the cannon fodder, and escaped without any danger.
