Chapter 251: Meeting! Sasuke and Itachi, Tsunade and Orochimaru, Kisame and Biwa Juzo!

Ever since the "Konohagakure War" ended some time ago, Orochimaru decided to lay low for a while.

Because his strongest Summoned Beast "Manda" was beaten into such a miserable state by Whitebeard.

This meant that Orochimaru had lost a powerful combat assistant.

Under these circumstances, if he continued to be active in the ninja world, there was a high chance he would suffer a big loss.

However, Orochimaru didn't expect that the leader of the Akatsuki organization would actually call him out to carry out a mission.

Orochimaru, who didn't want to fall out with the Akatsuki organization for the time being, so he could only change his plan and decide to complete the organization's mission first.

In Orochimaru's eyes, this task was not a difficult one.

After all, there were four people acting together, and it was just about collecting some information about the Jinchuriki.

That was all.

He might also be able to take this opportunity to think about how to rescue Kimimaro from Whitebeard's hands.

But what Orochimaru never expected was...

Before he could go to the Whitebeard Pirates to rescue Kimimaro, the Whitebeard Pirates appeared in front of him in broad daylight!

The exaggerated big ship at the distant port, although Orochimaru had never seen it, but the pirate flag on the big ship, he absolutely remembered!

The symbol of the Whitebeard Pirates was almost engraved in the deepest part of Orochimaru's memory, making him unable to forget it no matter what.

Actually, Orochimaru and the Whitebeard Pirates didn't meet very often.

However, Orochimaru's encounter with Whitebeard proved to be his most unfortunate stroke of luck.

The first time, one of his bodies was destroyed by Whitebeard; the second time, Summoned Beast Manda almost died in Whitebeard's hands.

During the time Manda was healing, Orochimaru was scolded by Manda countless times.

So much so that Orochimaru had to leave Ryuchi Cave.

Temporarily avoid the furious Manda.

Now, this is the third time he has encountered the Whitebeard Pirates.

Orochimaru couldn't imagine what he would encounter this time?

"Hey! Why are you two so silent?"

Biwa Juzo frowned in confusion: "Your reactions... could it be that you've seen the Five Kage gathered?"

"...Hehe." Orochimaru came back to his senses from the shock, his neck that had stretched more than ten meters high shrank back, a drop of sweat overflowed from his forehead, he said: "This is much more terrifying than the Five Kage of the five major ninja villages gathering!"

Orochimaru and Sasori, one playing the riddle man, the other simply silent.

This made Biwa Juzo lose patience.

Biwa Juzo simply jumped up and landed on the roof of a nearby building.

His gaze was also looking at the distant port at this moment.

"...Is this? The Moby Dick of the Whitebeard Pirates?!"

Biwa Juzo's shocked voice blurted out.

As one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of Kirigakure Village, Biwa Juzo actually knew that the Whitebeard Pirates were building a big ship in the Land of Water, and he also knew that the big ship was called Moby Dick.

He had even seen the design drawings of Moby Dick, and roughly knew what kind of ship the Whitebeard Pirates wanted to build in the Land of Water.

But what Biwa Juzo didn't expect was that Moby Dick did not appear in the Land of Water afterwards.

But it appeared in the Land of Thunder!

This is not be a replica of Moby Dick, how could such a large ship be built without nearly a billion in funds?

Even the replica still need a lot of money!

This also means that the Whitebeard Pirates are right in front of them!

The straight-line distance from here to the port is only a mere kilometer!

For a ninja, is a kilometer considered a distance?

The moment they heard the six words "Whitebeard Pirate Group", Uchiha Itachi and Biwa Juzo, like everyone else, teleported and appeared on the roof of a building.

Sure enough.

He also saw the iconic pirate flag of the Whitebeard Pirates!

The expressionless face of Itachi finally showed a bit of strangeness.

Because he knew that his younger brother, Uchiha Sasuke, for some reason, chose to join the Whitebeard Pirates and became a son of Whitebeard.

That is to say, Sasuke is also in the Land of Thunder?

Itachi couldn't help but sigh... The coincidences in the world are really puzzling.

He was still thinking a while ago about when he would have some free time, secretly find his younger brother, and then forcibly correct Sasuke's path, letting Sasuke continue in the direction he envisioned.

As it turns out, Sasuke just happened to come to him.

That's good, it saves him the trouble of traveling all the way to the Village of Konohagakure.

However, what puzzled Uchiha Itachi was, why would the Whitebeard Pirates be in the Land of Thunder?

What is their purpose?

"Hmm? Wait! There's something going on!" Suddenly, Itachi noticed something wrong nearby.

As soon as he finished speaking, five figures suddenly appeared and surrounded the few members of their Akatsuki organization.

The five people who surrounded them were obviously Anbu members of the Kumogakure Village!

Mainly because Sasori's puppet body was too big, as long as the Anbu ninjas of Kumogakure Village weren't blind, they could see the anomaly at a glance.

"Looking from afar... I thought it was a giant monster, but when I got closer, I realized it seemed to be a puppet." An Anbu ninja from Kumogakure Village squinted his eyes, one of his hands already resting on the hilt of his Ninja Sword, then he turned his gaze to Orochimaru and others.

"Kirigakure Village renegade Ninja Sword Seven Ninja Swordsmen Biwa Juzo, Konohagakure Village renegade Uchiha Itachi, Konohagakure Village renegade Orochimaru... and a weird giant puppet."

The Kumogakure Anbu ninja said coldly, "This is really an incredible combination, what exactly do you want to do by appearing in the Land of Thunder?"

As an Anbu of a ninja village, who has a lot of information about the ninja world, he naturally couldn't fail to recognize the few people in front of him.

After all, whether it's Orochimaru, Biwa Juzo, or Uchiha Itachi...

They are all famous.

"You should be an Anbu ninja from Kumogakure Village, right?"

Biwa Juzo couldn't help but give Sasori a white look, "I told you to put this puppet away, now they've found out, haven't they?"

"Tsk, don't tell me what to do!" Sasori retorted casually.

"What do we do now?" Uchiha Itachi asked.

Orochimaru licked his lips and suggested, "If we don't want our whereabouts to be discovered by the Fourth Raikage, we'll have to kill them all. If the Fourth Raikage discovers our whereabouts, that man might come in person."

The four members of the Akatsuki organization clearly didn't take the Kumogakure Anbu seriously, and they didn't even answer the Kumogakure Village Anbu's question.

"Remember, we need to fight quickly!" Orochimaru added, "Otherwise... Whitebeard might also be attracted here."

The moment Orochimaru's words fell, he was the first to take action without any warning!

Orochimaru's retracted neck suddenly extended again.

Like a spear thrusting out, it appeared next to a Kumogakure Anbu in the blink of an eye.

For Orochimaru, being sought out by the Fourth Raikage in person is not a big deal.

But if Whitebeard comes to find him... the moment he sees Whitebeard, he will definitely turn around and run away.

Orochimaru opened his mouth and bit towards the neck of this Kumogakure Anbu.

"Ninjutsu·Curse Seal!!!"

The Kumogakure Anbu who was bitten by Orochimaru had a curse seal that bound his body surface, making his body unable to move.

Orochimaru's body also quickly rushed towards this side.

An arm turned into a snake, and the arm was about to pierce through this Kumogakure Anbu's body.

At the critical moment, an Anbu next to him quickly drew out his Sword and slashed towards Orochimaru's neck.

Orochimaru's movement paused, and his neck twisted exaggeratedly to dodge this sword.

"Damn it! You dare to attack the ninjas of Kumogakure Village in the Land of Thunder!"

The Anbu ninja who saved his companion quickly formed seals.

"Lightning Release·Roaring Thunder!!!"

He spat out a ball of lightning and it flew straight towards Orochimaru.

Orochimaru sidestepped and avoided this Lightning Release Ninjutsu.

Boom!

The Lightning Release Ninjutsu fell on the building behind Orochimaru, directly blasting a large hole in a thick concrete wall.

"Get out of my way!" Sasori's voice rang out, and the giant puppet raised a foot and stomped towards a Kumogakure Anbu.

The Kumogakure Anbu who was targeted by Sasori hurriedly dodged this foot in a panic.

The puppet's foot landed on the ground, and the ground trembled violently.

If it were stepped on, it would definitely turn into a meat patty!

'Really troublesome guys... they dare to stop us four with only five people, they are really not afraid of death!'

Biwa Juzo frowned, and he formed seals with both hands: "Ninjutsu·Kirigakure Technique!!!"

Suddenly, clouds of fog enveloped the entire area within a radius of several tens of meters.

Biwa Juzo, who was in the fog, instantly appeared behind a Kumogakure Anbu.

The back of the Kubikiribōchō in his hand struck the other's neck.

On the spot, this Kumogakure Anbu was knocked out.

"Clone Jutsu!"

Taking advantage of the surrounding fog, Biwa Juzo split out a clone, which immediately ran towards Moby Dick.

On the surface, he is a renegade from Kirigakure Village, but in reality, Biwa Juzo did not betray Kirigakure Village. 

Biwa Juzo also knew the relationship between the Whitebeard Pirates and Kirigakure Village, so he sent out a clone, ready to inform the Whitebeard Pirates of the situation here.

Considering the relationship between Kirigakure Village and the Whitebeard Pirates.

Informing the Whitebeard Pirates and informing Kirigakure Village is no different.

Anyway... that's what Biwa Juzo thinks.

"Damn! It's the Kirigakure Technique of Kirigakure Village! Quickly gather back to back!" The remaining three Anbu of Kumogakure Village quickly gathered together.

The three people huddled together, their eyes were trying hard to search for the enemy in the fog.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Jutsu!!!"

At this moment, a burst of firelight suddenly came from above them.

When they looked up, it was a huge fireball falling from the sky!

Boom!!!

The Great Fireball Jutsu just fell right in the center of the three people, instantly burning their backs.

And it blasted all three of them away.

Among them, one who was blasted away was caught by Sasori with one hand.

The giant puppet, when holding an Anbu of Kumogakure Village, was like holding a little rabbit.

Sasori casually threw it to the ground.

The body of the Kumogakure Anbu hit the solid ground heavily.

"Puh!!!"

The other party opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, and more than a dozen bones in his body were broken.

Sasori slowly lifted his big foot, he was about to give this Kumogakure Anbu a fatal blow.

But at this moment, three Kunai flew from an unknown direction.

The Kunai tore through the fog and hit Sasori's puppet accurately.

What was surprising was... each of the three Kunai was tied with an Explosive Tag, and each Explosive Tag was slowly burning.

At the moment when Sasori's deadly foot hadn't fallen yet, the Explosive Tags exploded!

Boom!!!

Boom!!!

Boom!!!

The shock wave caused by the explosion of the three Explosive Tags blew the Kumogakure Anbu on the ground away, and also made Sasori's puppet a bit unsteady.

Fortunately, under Sasori's control, the puppet quickly stabilized.

The shock wave caused by the explosion also scattered the fog.

Not only can the people outside see the group of people inside.

It also allows the group of people inside to see the people outside.

"How dare you guys make a trouble on the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates"

A childish voice sounded from one direction.

Naruto was playing with a Kunai in his hand, a smile on his little face, and he walked slowly towards this side.

You can see... the Kunai in Naruto's hand is also tied with an Explosive Tag.

This means that the three Kunai that suddenly appeared just now were thrown in by Naruto!

As for why Naruto has so many Explosive Tags in his hand?

Of course, it was given by Biwa Juzo!

The reason Naruto appeared here so quickly was also because Biwa Juzo's clone hurriedly went to inform the Whitebeard Pirates.

Upon hearing about the appearance of the Akatsuki organization, Naruto didn't hesitate at all, he was the first to rush over.

"Four people, huh!" Naruto's gaze lingered on the four "members of the Akatsuki organization" in front of him, he muttered, "I've met three of them before."

Sasori was hidden inside a giant puppet, Naruto had never seen this kind of puppet.

So he didn't recognize Sasori.

But Orochimaru, Uchiha Itachi, Biwa Juzo, these three people, can be considered Naruto's "old acquaintances".

Especially Uchiha Itachi!

Naruto squinted his eyes, he looked at Uchiha Itachi and said, "You, who are so cold-blooded as to kill your own family and clan, dare to show up? If I had done such a thing, whether voluntarily or forced... I would have been so ashamed that I would have chosen to end myself."

"You actually have the face to live in this world. Are you afraid to go to the underworld, to face your father, mother, and clan? You are really quite cowardly!"

He made such a sharp comment towards Uchiha Itachi.

Naruto's dislike for Uchiha Itachi is very deep, what he despises the most is a coward who kills his own family.

In Naruto's eyes, Uchiha Itachi is that kind of coward.

"Hehe, in the end, did we attract the Whitebeard Pirates?" Orochimaru had already ignored the five Kumogakure Anbu.

Because in a short period of time, all five Kumogakure Anbu had lost their combat power.

"Nice to see you again! Uzumaki Naruto." Orochimaru licked his lips, he actually took the initiative to greet Naruto.

Then, Orochimaru asked Naruto, "You should have taken very good care of the child I adopted, right?"

"He's doing quite well in the Whitebeard Pirates, we're trying to sever your bond with him." A sudden voice answered Orochimaru's question before Naruto could speak.

Orochimaru turned his head to look in the direction where the voice came from, and found a girl with long black hair.

The girl was wearing the clothes of the Uchiha clan, and there was also the Uchiha clan emblem on her clothes.

After Uchiha Izumi answered Orochimaru's question for Naruto.

She put her gaze on Uchiha Itachi.

At this moment, Uchiha Itachi's gaze also met hers.

Izumi slowly took a deep breath, she suppressed the anger rising in her chest, "I had imagined... we would meet again in many ways, but I didn't expect it to be in such a coincidental way."

Uchiha Izumi's hands were already clenched into fists.

It can be seen that the moment she saw Uchiha Itachi, her mood became very unstable.

Because...

Uchiha Itachi is one of the main culprits that almost led to the destruction of the Uchiha clan!

If she hadn't hurriedly moved her mother out of the Uchiha residence before, she and her mother might have died at the hands of Uchiha Itachi, and she would never have had the chance to become Pops' daughter in this life.

"She's a survivor of the Uchiha clan!" Orochimaru looked at Uchiha Izumi with interest, then turned his head to look at Itachi next to him.

He chuckled, "Itachi-kun, this girl seems to be full of hatred and anger towards you! Looking at her eyes, it seems like she can't wait to tear you in half."

Uchiha Itachi fell into silence, he didn't know what to say.

Knock!

Knock!

Knock!

The sound of a scabbard hitting the ground slowly rang out, and another member of the Whitebeard Pirates walked over from here.

Shisui held a guide cane in his hand.

Inside the guide cane was a Ninja Sword.

This was a new weapon he had specially commissioned a craftsman to make for him.

"Itachi, long time no see."

Although Shisui couldn't see anything, he could feel Itachi's presence, and he could hear everyone's conversation.

His expression was somewhat complex.

Shisui sighed softly, "I don't know why you chose to do such an extreme thing, all I know is that in my eyes, you've messed everything up. Itachi, you're so wrong, you've become a bit strange to me."

"Tsk tsk, it's really lively here! You guys wouldn't mind adding me, would you?" Kisame suddenly appeared on the roof of a building.

Carrying the large sword Samehada, he looked down at the crowd below.

"Orochimaru-sama, Itachi, nice to see you again." Kakashi also appeared.

With two dead fish eyes open, Kakashi's face showed a bit of helplessness, "Why is it that every time I leave Konohagakure, one big thing after another keeps happening?"

"Kakashi-senpai?" Uchiha Itachi was suddenly startled.

Orochimaru raised an eyebrow, curiously asking, "Kakashi? You also joined the Whitebeard Pirates?"

Kakashi nodded.

But he responded to Orochimaru.

"Heh, this is really interesting!" Orochimaru gloated, "Now that the teacher is here, how many people can he use?"

"Hey! Orochimaru!" A very familiar voice entered Orochimaru's ears, "I thought Jiraiya would be the first to find your whereabouts, but I didn't expect that I would be the first to find you."

"Hmm?" Orochimaru was stunned, "Tsunade?"

In his line of sight, Tsunade was also walking towards here.

Why is Tsunade here?

Could it be... she joined the Whitebeard Pirates?

How is that possible?

Before Orochimaru had time to wonder, another childish voice came from not far away.

Orochimaru could feel the anger and killing intent in the voice.

"Uchiha! Itachi!"

Sasuke arrived, his eyes were red, his killing intent could not be concealed, and his anger could not be suppressed.

Orochimaru, Uchiha Itachi, Biwa Juzo, Sasori.

They were surrounded by the Whitebeard Pirates!

...
