Watching the flames spreading within the Hidden Mist Village, Orochimaru couldn't help but gently shake his head.

"Troublesome is troublesome, but it doesn't concern us much. Just focus on our own tasks."

Kakuzu shrugged indifferently. His mission was complete, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, he would receive a hefty reward.

He was now completely in a state of 'money in hand, fear nothing.' He truly agreed with what Hidezawa had once told him.

"You're in this organization, how much money do you make in a month? Why risk your life?"

Kakuzu now understood that risking his life depended on who he was risking it for. A good boss like Hidezawa was worth risking it for!

"Doesn't concern us much?"

Orochimaru looked at Kakuzu with a half-smile. Actually, he had always felt there was something off about Kakuzu.

After all, he was once one of the Leaf's Sannin, and the closest to becoming Hokage.

He wasn't as easily fooled as the others in the Akatsuki, because he was well aware of how comprehensive the Leaf's internal security measures and intelligence screening were!

Even if Kakuzu was an excellent bounty hunter, he was still beneath the Leaf's notice.

However, he didn't plan to expose him. Who knew when Kakuzu might come in handy.

"Everything tonight is likely the work of those people from the Leaf, are you sure it doesn't concern us much?"

"At worst, it's just a battle."

Kakuzu shrugged and looked into the distance. The Mizukage Building was faintly visible in the mist.

"Besides, the person we're recruiting is Shizawa Hidezawa. Only when the Mist is in chaos will we have a chance to have a proper face-to-face conversation with him, isn't that right?"

"But our mission will be a bit troublesome."

Orochimaru chuckled and said nothing more. Talking to Shizawa Hidezawa was not something he needed to be involved in for the time being.

After all, it was just planting a seed. Letting Nagato go himself would be enough, and their mission was to create greater chaos and intercept the Leaf's other members!

This was also why Orochimaru chose to team up with Kakuzu, instead of teaming up with Juzo Biwa as Nagato had originally intended.

If Kakuzu was really a spy, many things would become easier!

"Oh, it seems someone has arrived before us."

Just as Orochimaru was pondering, Kakuzu suddenly chuckled, and Orochimaru also looked up.

Not far away, the figures of Konan and Juzo Biwa had already appeared, and not just the two of them.

The figures of the Leaf's group were also faintly visible in front of the Mizukage Building, intertwined with flames and thick fog.

"Hmph, I never thought that Zabuza would dare to do such a thing."

Near the Mizukage Building, Juzo Biwa and Konan had arrived early.

After all, Juzo Biwa originally belonged to the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, and was very familiar with everything inside the Hidden Mist.

With him leading the way, they didn't spend too much time and had already arrived at the scene.

Konan originally planned to take care of Nagato, but the situation tonight was extraordinary, and Konan could only follow.

Watching the ninjas constantly fighting around him, Juzo Biwa couldn't help but curse under his breath.

"Don't think so simply, some things aren't so coincidental."

Konan shook her head. After all, she was already in control of the Rain Village. Even though many things were still unclear, she had indeed seen a lot.

"Any coincidental event is likely to be deliberately pushed by someone, especially the situation tonight is even more unusual."

"Are you saying that there is someone behind Zabuza? Those people from the Leaf?"

Juzo Biwa raised his eyebrows, but Konan shook her head.

"It's hard to say, and it's hard to evaluate. I don't know much about the Hidden Mist, but I also know that this village has two 'Kage'.

As for whether those people from the Leaf are involved, it's unknown, but the probability of those people from the Leaf taking this opportunity to do something is not small."

"Konan, so you came too, but it seems you have grown a lot."

However, as soon as Konan finished speaking, a voice rang out in the thick fog.

But neither Juzo Biwa nor Konan seemed surprised. They just calmly looked ahead.

Ninjas of their level had long sensed that someone was watching them, but they just didn't say it directly.

"Lord Jiraiya, hello."

Konan tilted her head and then nodded.

She didn't hide the idea of their relationship, but openly admitted it.

"It seems that your Leaf's recent actions have been really strong, first the Grass Country, then the Stone Village, and now you've set your sights on the Hidden Mist.

When will you attack the Cloud Village or even the Sand Village?"

As she spoke, Konan's gaze turned to Ye Cang on the side, and Jiraiya raised his eyebrows.

"The Leaf's actions all have their own principles, and not like your organization doing evil!

Moreover, the Sand Village is an ally of the Leaf. In the future, we will only have more friendly exchanges, and we will only be closer to each other."

"Is that so?"

Konan looked at Jiraiya expressionlessly, but Jiraiya didn't want to waste words with her.

"Where's Orochimaru? And where's Nagato? Where are they?"

After hearing Hidezawa's account, Zabuza had basically confirmed that the person who died was Yahiko.

After all, the Rinnegan belonged to Nagato, and Hidezawa had emphasized more than once that the one who fought him was a corpse puppet, and a guy with orange hair.

With such clear information, Jiraiya naturally understood, but he was too eager to know what exactly happened back then.

"If you want information, then find a way to get it yourself."

Konan was still expressionless, but she could confirm that Nagato's information had been exposed.

"As for Orochimaru, hasn't he come already."

"This Mizukage Building is really small inside."

The outside was already tense, but inside the Mizukage Building, Hidezawa seemed to be leisurely exploring it.

Even with countless ninjas already lying on the ground, this place still looked much better than outside.

Xiuzhe's mission was actually very clear: find the Fourth Mizukage and Uchiha Obito!

"However, without the Byakugan, how can I force Uchiha Obito out?"

In fact, Xiuzhe was now facing some minor problems, one of which was Uchiha Obito.

He remembered that the person who saw through Uchiha Obito was Ao, who possessed the Byakugan.

And Uchiha Obito was obviously aware of this threat, so he never allowed that guy to get close in the true sense of the word.

Moreover, the entire Mizukage Building had various barriers to prevent the Byakugan; otherwise, they would have been exposed long ago.

"It seems I can only use some brute-force methods."

Xiuzhe sighed. He didn't really want to make things so big, but unfortunately, the situation didn't allow it.

Since that was the case, he could only use the most crude method!

Boom—

Just as Xiuzhe was thinking, he suddenly sensed a violent explosion outside the Mizukage Building.

The roar seemed to resound throughout Kirigakure, and even the sturdy Mizukage Building was constantly shaking at this moment.

Through the windows of the Mizukage Building, Xiuzhe seemed to see two huge monsters appearing outside, and an even more intense battle erupted at this moment!

"It's really intense, so I..."

The chakra in Xiuzhe's body slightly condensed, but at this moment, his body suddenly trembled, and a strange tearing force invaded from behind.

"Kamui?"

This familiar feeling immediately made Xiuzhe understand what was going on. As expected, it was Uchiha Obito who had made a move.

However, Xiuzhe reacted quickly. The suction force of Kamui was indeed powerful, but his LV11 physical fitness allowed him to maintain some control.

With a quick flash, he instantly broke away from this gravitational pull, and then looked at Obito, who appeared like a ghost.

"As expected, it's you, Uchiha Obito."

Xiuzhe looked at the person in front of him calmly, and even a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"I've always been wondering what role you would play in this village. Now it seems everything is clear."

"Hmph!"

Obito snorted coldly, seemingly not wanting to waste words with Xiuzhe. The black rod in his hand instantly swung out, fiercely smashing towards Xiuzhe.

His mood was now very bad and complicated, and he always felt that his face was a little hot.

Just a dozen minutes ago, he had confidently told Black Zetsu that Xiuzhe would never find him and would never dare to attack the Mizukage in Kirigakure.

As a result, the village was in turmoil, and this guy came to his door. It was hard for Obito to think that all of this was an accident!

"This bastard, how does he understand me so well?"

Obito roared in his heart, and the black rod in his hand, containing Yin-Yang Release, swung fiercely towards Xiuzhe.

Only a moment later, his face became even more ugly.

"Not to be rude, but how can your taijutsu be so bad?"

Xiuzhe just took out a kunai, dodging and responding to his attacks, and even looked at him with a mocking expression.

"I noticed this problem before. I thought I was mistaken, but now it seems that the fact is so. I can't help but want to ask you a question."

"Are you really an Uchiha?"

Really an Uchiha?

Obito tried his best to restrain his emotions, constantly attacking Xiuzhe, but he was still very careful, after all, his Kamui had gaps, and he had to be extremely careful.

"Speaking of which, you are really pathetic."

Xiuzhe dodged leisurely while speaking indifferently.

"First, you conceitedly trapped yourself in a small world, which is the small world of your Sharingan.

Then you loudly clamored that it was all the world's fault, that you wanted to take revenge on this world, and then you attacked the person who was once the best to you.

I heard Kakashi tell some interesting stories. I'm very curious, how did Kushina-senpai's rice balls taste?"

"Shut up!"

Obito shouted angrily, and the black rod swung again, but this time Xiuzhe seemed to be a little serious.

His speed was so fast that it was dazzling. In an instant, he had avoided the black rod, and the kunai in his hand went straight for Obito's heart!

"Tch!"

Obito cursed secretly. Helpless, he immediately flashed and forcibly entered Kamui.

"The movements are not standard, and the speed is still slow. I'm too disappointed."

Xiuzhe didn't care that his attack missed. Instead, he sighed and shook his head.

"All you can do is hide in your space for the rest of your life, but this is also very suitable for you, after all—"

Xiuzhe casually threw the kunai up, and at the same time, he didn't even bother to pretend. He directly put his hands together, and the majestic chakra in his body surged.

"Your space is just a sewer, and you are the rat hiding in the sewer.

For the rest of your life, you are only worthy of living in the stinky ditch. For the rest of your life, don't even think about enjoying the sunshine!"

Just as his voice fell, countless vines rose instantly, directly breaking through the interior of the Mizukage Building.

Seeing this scene, Obito was slightly stunned. The next moment, he seemed to realize something, and without saying a word, he rushed towards Xiuzhe!

Buzz—

However, this time Obito directly missed, and Xiuzhe now appeared behind him.

Bang—

Xiuzhe kicked out, hitting Uchiha Obito hard in the lower back, directly kicking this guy hard against the wall!
