358. Oriole in the back

After spitting out the message, the little snake crawled on the scorched earth, and was soon stabbed by a shuriken. It twisted for a while and lost the breath of life.

Itachi stood on the broken eaves and broken wall nearby, staring at the surroundings for a long time before disappearing into smoke.

In order to prevent the remaining Orochimaru gang, Itachi deliberately left a shadow clone to kill the little snake who had tipped off the enemy.

However, shortly after Itachi's shadow clone disappeared, the dead little snake opened its eyes again, showing human eyes, and murmured to himself: "What a living Uchiha."

After that, an even smaller snake emerged from the body of the little snake, and got into the nearby corpse like a phantom. The corpse stood up and left towards the opposite area.



On the other side, Itachi, who had received the memory of the shadow clone, couldn't help but quicken his pace and quickly surpassed the captain of the root team. This made the team leader slightly stunned and realized that the other party was more powerful than himself.

At nightfall, the two arrived near the village and could already faintly see Shadow Rock.

Itachi and the team leader looked a little tired after a long day of traveling. They were still in a state of uncertainty about what happened during the day and why there was such a terrible trap in Orochimaru's base.

At this moment, Itachi suddenly stopped and stood on the treetop looking at the figure in the open space below. The other person was staring at him and the team leader, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

This place is less than ten kilometers away, but it will take a lot of time for the ninjas in the village to support them.

Without the slightest hesitation, Itachi took out the flare, lit it and fired it toward the sky with a hiss. However, the flare was stopped before it reached the sky.

Seeing this scene, the face of the team leader beside him changed and he asked in a deep voice: "Who are you? This is Konoha's territory!"

That figure said nothing nonsense, and disappeared in a flash.

The next moment, he appeared directly behind the squad leader and hit his abdomen with a palm. The dense runes directly blocked the squad leader and entangled him!

"This is the sealing technique in the village!"

Itachi's face became solemn, he looked at the figure, quickly formed a seal, and shouted: "Fire Release: Fireball Technique!"

boom…

The huge flame illuminated the darkness and made a violent roar!

With the illumination of the flames, Itachi dodged to one side and saw the person clearly. He was wearing the red cloud suit of the Akatsuki organization and a renegade forehead protector. At first glance, he was a standard Akatsuki member.

Facing the fire escape attack, the figure did not dodge and directly cut off the Hao Fire Ball in half.

The flames obscured his vision, and Itachi could vaguely see the man continuing to attack him, so he pulled out the kunai from his waist to fight back.

Phew…

Itachi controlled the kunai and stabbed the man's palm, drawing a blood mark as deep as his thumb. The man's palm also hit Itachi's chest, trying to repeat the same trick and use the sealing technique.

quack…

The hit Weasel turned into countless crows, flying in the night sky, landing in the open space aside and reuniting into human form.

At this moment, There was only solemnity on Itachi's face. He looked at the figure and said, "It seems that you are the village spy that Danzo-sama mentioned. I didn't expect that the village has been infiltrated by spies like this."

The figure below seemed to be enraged, as several thorny poisonous snakes emerged from his sleeves and shot at Itachi's position.

Itachi activated the teleportation technique to dodge and cut off the poisonous snake's body. The three magatama sharingan stared at the figure at his feet, feeling very complicated.

He mentioned Danzo on purpose, knowing that the person in front of him was Danzo, the target of the mission.

Even though the opponent used Orochimaru's signature ninjutsu, it couldn't be hidden from Itachi's eyes. It was actually just a secret technique called Super Beast Pseudo Painting, not a real poisonous snake.

After performing root tasks for so many days, he has already agreed with some of the root concepts.

Perhaps because he was also used to darkness, Itachi didn't want Danzo to die in a conspiracy, it was best to die in an upright battle.

Thinking of this, Itachi quickly formed seals with his hands and instantly transformed into two figures.

Two figures, one returned to the village, and the other rushed towards the depths of the forest. Under the cover of night, the two figures quickly merged into the darkness.

"You are really alert, Uchiha Itachi."

Itachi's handling method made Danzo very satisfied. He was worthy of the name of Uchiha genius. With genius eyes and eye power, he might be stronger than planned.

After sighing, Danzo opened his Sharingan, and the dark woods suddenly became much clearer.

Just now, in order to avoid alerting others, he deliberately suppressed the types and scale of ninjutsu, but it was no longer necessary.

Danzo then rushed towards the depths of the forest and turned into a black dot.

Danzo was not worried about Itachi escaping back to the village. He had already left several loyal subordinates along the way. Even if it alarmed the two Mangekyo Uchiha, he would capture Itachi Uchiha.

Swish…

Not long after Danzo left, a figure arrived here.

This person was none other than Kabuto Yakushi, Orochimaru's spy left in Konoha, and several other Orochimaru's subordinates.

With Orochimaru's method of winning over people's hearts and his status as a former Sannin, there were not many spies left in Konoha. Although these spies were not of high ninja rank, they all occupied key positions.

Looking at the unconscious team leader on the ground, a spy said: "Sir, one of the parties fighting here is the root ninja."

At this time, another spy showed palpitations on his face and said: "The chakra of both parties is at least the level of jounin."

"Jounin?!" Kabuto looked solemnly under the mask and looked at the place where Danzo left.

He had been collecting genin and chunin information for Lord Orochimaru in the village, but in the afternoon he received a letter from Orochimaru, asking him to investigate the reason why the nearby base was destroyed.

That base is usually inconspicuous. Apart from our own people, there are only...

Thinking of this, Kabuto suddenly understood something, and his lenses glowed coldly. Danzo was using Lord Orochimaru's base to achieve his own goals.

The spy came over and said cautiously: "Sir, should we continue to follow you?"

Kabuto turned around and looked at the two spies behind him, shook his head slightly and said, "You can go back. I will carry out the next mission alone."

Although in order to collect information, Kabuto has always maintained the rank of genin and has been reluctant to be promoted.

But in terms of true strength, Kabuto has definitely reached the level of jounin, and in terms of biomedicine, Kabuto has mastered Orochimaru's true legacy.

The two spies hesitated for a moment and returned towards the village.

Kabuto, on the other hand, restrained most of his aura and quietly advanced towards the depths of the forest. He did not intend to participate in the dispute between the two parties, but it was necessary to collect intelligence.
