After changing his identity, Orochimaru is much better than before in all aspects. The most obvious point is that he is no longer weak, but has more energy and moves faster.
However, Orochimaru liked his previous appearance very much. Even after occupying Bai Zetsu's body, he still used ninjutsu to transform himself into Orochimaru's appearance.
After the failed sneak attack, Orochimaru also became much more honest. He no longer held a hostile attitude towards Yusuke, but showed "curiosity". When looking at Yusuke, he would often appear absent-minded.
This made Yusuke very uncomfortable.
Although Orochimaru has the title of "Snake Aunt", it does not mean that he likes to be stared at by a man with "incomprehensible" eyes.
"What do you want to do?"
After maintaining a corresponding distance from Bai Zetsu, Yusuke settled his inner doubts.
"No...I'm just curious about you."
"Huh?" Yusuke was stunned and looked at Orochimaru more alertly, "Curious?"
"That's right. When you and I first met, you were a rookie ninja. How many years had it passed? I can't even tell your current strength. So, I'm going to observe you." Orochimaru said with a smile.
Yusuke rolled his eyes.
He didn't want to be observed by Orochimaru like a guinea pig.
However, "Akatsuki" is a formidable enemy, and he can only temporarily cooperate with Orochimaru.
"I'm not the only one worth watching."
"I'll tell you later when I find them," Orochimaru said.
Yusuke didn't want to dwell on this topic anymore, and instead said: "The reincarnation of the dirty soil requires the cell tissue of the dead. Otherwise, even if we catch enough White Zetsu, we will not be able to reincarnate in the dirty soil."
"That's right, but we are at a loss now." Orochimaru said.
"Let's leave the matter of collecting cells to Kabuto and Jugo. Once we find enough White Zetsu, we can immediately carry out the 'Dirty Earth Reincarnation'." Yusuke suggested.
The corners of Orochimaru's lips curled up, "If other major ninja villages knew your plan, they would probably hate you for the rest of their lives. The dead should not have appeared in this world, but you disturbed their peace."
"Wrong, it's you." Yusuke shook his head.
Orochimaru's smile solidified.
"Besides, although using 'reincarnation in the dirty earth' is disrespectful to the dead, people have to look forward. First, they can meet the younger generations, and the younger generations should also feel some comfort when they see the dead. Secondly, they join
After the war, if I can reduce the death of one person, I think it is worth it. After all, the future of the ninja world belongs to the ninjas who are still alive." Yusuke said.
"I didn't expect you thought so much?" Orochimaru said in surprise.
"Don't think so much, do you think I can survive?" Yusuke asked.
Orochimaru said nothing again.
"Okay, quickly find a way to notify Kabuto and ask him to take Jugo to search for the deceased's cells." Yusuke warned.
"Why should I go?" Orochimaru asked.
"If you don't go, do you still want me to go?" Yusuke said in surprise.
Orochimaru opened his mouth, unable to speak.
How did you say this so confidently?
Orochimaru was helpless, but still conveyed the information to Kabuto through the psychic snake. At the same time, Deidara, who was riding a giant bird and quickly chasing Yusuke Terauchi and Orochimaru, had to fight with Kisame because of the lack of information.
Together with Wuwei, they landed on the ground.
"What's wrong?" Kisame sat on the giant bird behind and looked at Deidara in confusion.
"The woods are too dense. I'm afraid I'm following the wrong direction, so I need to verify the information with Jue again," Deidara said.
While he was talking, a half-black and half-white man appeared in the big tree nearest to him.
"Jue, have you found it?" Deidara asked.
"Terauchi Yusuke and Orochimaru are about five kilometers away from here." Jue pointed forward, "But now there is another problem."
"What's up?"
"There is another team coming in this direction." Jue pointed to the left, "There are four people in total."
"Huh? Could it be a passing ninja? We have limited time." Kisame said.
"No, he is a ninja from Konoha, over 20 years old." Zetsu said.
"What are they doing here?" Deidara frowned.
"Akatsuki's" experience in Konoha Village was not too wonderful.
"Don't forget, the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki is still in our hands." Zetsu reminded.
"What should we do now?" Deidara asked, "split up?"
"That's the only way." Kisame said.
"I'm going to deal with those guys in Konoha Village, and Terauchi Yusuke will leave it to you." Deidara said immediately.
If possible, he didn't want to fight Yusuke Terauchi.
Fighting against that guy was torture for Deidara.
Terauchi Yusuke could suddenly appear in front of him, and then start beating him so hard that he wouldn't even have a chance to self-destruct.
Although it is shameful to escape, it is useful.
He must be careful before he can truly defeat Yusuke Terauchi.
"Only relying on yourself? I'm afraid it's not enough? How about letting Wuwei follow you?" Kisame asked.
"No." Deidara shook his head, "Yusuke is stronger. Even if there are three of you, you may not be able to defeat him. Don't forget, you are in the recovery period now."
"Don't forget, Pain is also behind and will come to support us at any time." Kisame said.
Deidara was about to say something more when Wuwei took the initiative to follow him.
His fight with Yusuke not long ago was the closest he came to death. Looking back now, he still has lingering fears.
If possible, he didn't want to fight Yusuke.
Now that he suddenly had such an opportunity, he would be in trouble if he didn't seize it.
So, the four soldiers divided into two groups.
Deidara and Wuwei dealt with the sudden appearance of the Konoha team, while Kisame and Zetsu dealt with Orochimaru and Terauchi Yusuke.
"Do you think the two of us can really catch Yusuke Terauchi?" Kisame asked.
"No." Jue answered truthfully.
"What should we do now?" Kisame asked.
"Follow them, the beast will come over soon." Jue said.
"That's good." Kisame glanced at the direction Deidara and Wuwei left, and disappeared into the woods with Zetsu without hesitation.

After Nara Shikaku left Konoha Village, he headed east and soon entered the territory of Amegakure Village.
After entering here, Nara Shikaku completely tensed up his nerves and always told his companions that their mission was just to look for Naruto's traces and to return immediately if discovered.
Even though he said this, he had already made the worst plan - even if he died, he would cover the evacuation of his teammates.
"Attention, someone is coming." Hinata Satoshi suddenly said, and the people accompanying him immediately entered a combat mode.
"Where?" Nara Shikaku asked.
"Heaven." Hinata Satoshi opened his white eyes and looked up at the sky.
Nara Shikaku, Inuzukazuma and Metkai all raised their heads, and a giant bird was flying towards them.
