"Orochimaru, Work for me."

Looking at the result of the match, both Tsunade and Kidou had no expression on their faces.

The reason was that instead of showing a number on the two dice, both of the dice were standing on their corners, which shouldn't be possible at the moment.

Kidou looked at Tsunade with his eyes narrowed while Tsunade was the same. Both of them looked at each other, and then Tsunade said, "So, what now?"

"Nothing, let's do both. We can't speed up the wedding so I will leave the village after we are done with dealing Danzo and his ROOT." Kidou said as he started to think of the plan and Tsunade nodded at his words.

She took back the two dice and seeing her like this, Kidou shook his head, and he didn't know what to say.

Shaking his head, he removed the useless thoughts from his mind, and said, "I am going to prepare for the 'party' tonight. Do you think you can make Hiruzen stay somewhere?"

"Hmm, I will deal with this matter," Tsunade said as she heard this, and Kidou nodded at her. He disappeared from the place and seeing this, Tsunade also left the place to prepare for tonight.

Disappearing from the place, Kidou appeared at the Forest of Death, and he released his Sensory Perception to look around.

Finding the base of ROOT was easy for him as he had looked in the memories, and Kidou located all the entrances to the base.

His expression changed as he noticed the ROOT Ninjas gathering at a place, and he looked at the place.

"Oh? Orochimaru? What does Danzo plan to do?" Kidou muttered as he noticed a familiar chakra moving in that direction, and he decided to snoop around and see what was going on.

Underground, ROOT Base.

Danzo, who had received the notice from Hiruzen, had a frown on his face, and he crushed the notice.

"Hiruzen, you have gotten 'Old'!"

Danzo muttered as he read the threat he had received from Hiruzen and the words that Tsunade said to Hiruzen. He didn't expect that Hiruzen would 'threaten' him because of Tsunade's simple words, and he even plans on decreasing the resources for ROOT.

"Princess Konoha, Heh! This title, even with Senju gone, she has too much prestige in the village. Even Daimyo would listen and support her if she plans on becoming Fourth Hokage."

Danzo muttered with a cold look on his face. Becoming Hokage is his goal, and he really regrets the delay he made in past, and because of this, Tobirama chooses Hiruzen as Hokage.

If only he knew that even if he came forward, Tobirama wouldn't let him create ROOT, let alone become Hokage of the Village.

Danzo, who was in deep thought heard a sound and without turning around, he asked, "Is he here?"

"Yes, Lord Danzo! Orochimaru is here."

Danzo hummed at his words and the ROOT Ninja disappeared from the place. A few moments later, Orochimaru arrived at the place, and he looked at Danzo who had his eyes covered with bandages.

Orochimaru didn't say anything, and he kept on looking at Danzo who had his back turned to him.

A few minutes passed by, and then Danzo turned around. Looking at Orochimaru, he nodded as Orochimaru had qualities that he needed, and he started to speak.

"Orochimaru, Work for me."

Danzo said directly instead of speaking in a roundabout way, and Orochimaru laughed with a mocking look on his face.

Seeing this, Danzo had no change in his expression, and he threw a scroll at Orochimaru.

Catching the scroll, Orochimaru looked at it but instead of opening it, he looked at Danzo, who smiled.

"This scroll has what you asked for and even the things that you might need. Consider this as an initial meeting gift, and if you work for me, you will get everything."

Danzo said while waving his head, and without waiting for Orochimaru's answer, he left the place.

Looking at the scroll in his hand, Orochimaru had his eyes narrowed and then he looked in a direction.

He licked his lips, and then the screams of a person were heard. Hearing this, Orochimaru chuckled and he disappeared from the place with a small snake appearing in his place, and the snake moved around.

Before the snack could leave the place, a shuriken hit it and cut off the neck of the snake.

The whole place became silent, and Kidou, who was looking at the scene from a distance, shook his head.

"I wonder what he will choose," Kidou murmured in a low voice and he wondered what Danzo gave to Orochimaru. From what he knew, it must be related to Forbidden Techniques and Taboo experiments.

"Maybe Danzo had been looking for Orochimaru from the start. Maybe, Orochimaru denied this, and Danzo started to push Orochimaru to the abyss."

Shaking his head, Kidou decided to not think much about this matter, and he looked in the direction where Sensor Ninjas were looking around and guarding the place.

Leaving a clone to keep guard, Kidou transformed into the ROOT Ninja he had killed before and matched his chakra to his.

When he was done, he created a few more clones who moved around the ROOT Headquarters and started to form seals.

"Well, it would be good to teleport everyone from the place."

Leaving the clones to create a Massive Teleportation Formation, Kidou disappeared from the place, and he appeared in his Mansion in Capital City of Land of Fire.

Disappearing from the mansion, he went outside the capital city and moved in the direction of Forest. There, he created a few more clones which started to form seals to create another part of the Teleportation Formation.

"This will take a lot of chakras. If I didn't have Kurama, I wouldn't be able to do this."

Kidou chuckled as he thought of this. While the clones started to form the Teleportation Formation, Kidou prepared for the traps and placed many restriction seals on the ground like Landmines.

He didn't plan on killing all the ROOT Ninjas as they were a good force and instead planned on keeping them as subordinates and making them scatter throughout the continent and create Teleportation Checkpoints.

Besides, he knew that War would start in future, and he planned on sending these Ninjas to other villages and having them climb up the ladders and get high positions in the village.

This way, in future, he could just manipulate from behind the scenes, and keep everything in check until he has the power to suppress everyone, including Kaguya, Hagoromo, Isshiki and other Otsutsukis who will arrive in the world in future.
