This Ninja Is Obviously Not Strong but Really Hard to Kill

Chapter 421: Orochimaru Defects

In the following period of time, Aoba and Sasuke's battle of wits and courage every day during dinner continued, and the intensity of their training had always been high.

Every day, after Sasuke finished his special training, he would lie on the ground like a dead dog.

However, Itachi would seize the time every day to deliver food to Sasuke. Therefore, the great demon Aoba was unable to be defeated by Sasuke. On the contrary, it caused Sasuke's body foundation to become more and more solid. Even his Taijutsu had improved by a great deal!

Although the proud and arrogant Sasuke was unwilling to admit this, it was more or less due to that bastard's contribution.

Until now, Sasuke still thought that the food Itachi sent him every night was made by his family servants.

More than once, he praised it for being delicious. It was really good!

For Aoba, although these days were a little dull, it was also very fulfilling. Especially when he changed his ways to bully Sasuke, it was the happiest moment for him.

As for Kakashi, who forced him to hide from the limelight for a while, there was no news of him.

Did he give up?

Or was he waiting for him to walk into the trap?

Then, before he could decide whether he should show himself, Akatsuki called him again.

Therefore, he had to find an excuse to leave Uchiha's station and hide in a place where no one was around. Then, he changed his alt account and injected his chakra into the ring on his finger.

Because of the delay, he was the last to arrive.

No, in fact, he was not the last to arrive, because there was still one person missing!

But before he could ask, Pain had already opened his mouth, "Since everyone is here, then I will announce one thing next."

"Orochimaru defected from the organization. From now on, I will give you the order to kill him in the name of the leader of Akatsuki. The task is to kill Orochimaru and retrieve the ring on his hand to avoid leaking the secret of the organization."

Orochimaru defected?

Many people revealed surprised looks in their eyes, but they were not very surprised. It could be seen how bad the relationship between Orochimaru and the others was!

Sasori laughed even more gloomily, as if he could not wait to find Orochimaru and kill him!

There was no need to mention Aoba, because in his opinion, without Itachi joining, there was only one explanation for Orochimaru defecting the group, and that was that Orochimaru took the bait!

This guy had gone to Amegakure to assassinate the leader and seize Rinnegan.

The final result was obvious. Pain had gathered them for a meeting, but Orochimaru was nowhere to be found.

He just didn't know if Orochimaru had discovered Nagato's real body, and what was the specific situation?

Aoba was really too curious.

But presumably, Pain would definitely not say it. If he wanted to know the specific situation, he could only think of a way to find Orochimaru.

However, according to his understanding of Orochimaru, unless he was really at the end of his rope and was forced into a desperate situation, he would not take the risk to contact him.

Otherwise, Orochimaru would not choose to do it alone, but would join hands with him.

The only thing he could be sure of now was that Orochimaru's current situation was definitely not good.

Nagato's counterattack was not something an ordinary person could withstand.

After giving the order to kill, Pain looked at Sasori again, "Before you take back the ring, you should act alone first, or cooperate with the other teams."

Sasori nodded without any objections. This was what he wanted.

In fact, Nagato wanted Sasori and Yasuo to form a team to carry out the activities, but Yasuo was usually elusive and had no place to stay. Every time he completed the task, he would disappear.

There were even a few times when Nagato secretly sent Kakuzu to track him, but in the end, he still found nothing.

Even Kakuzu was lost, which further proved the extraordinariness and mystery of Yasuo.

Now that Orochimaru defected, the impact was very bad, and it was not a good time to lay his cards on the table with Yasuo.

After the meeting, Aoba switched back to his main account, revealing a thoughtful expression.

To tell the truth, Orochimaru attacking Nagato so quickly had a lot to do with him.

It could also be said that he was deliberately tricking Orochimaru.

Therefore, Orochimaru, who was now avoiding Konoha and Akatsuki's double pursuit, was a good time to recruit this guy.

Even if he failed to recruit him, he might be able to test whether this guy was prepared for Konoha to collapse.

He also had to prepare early.

The existence of Sarutobi had seriously hindered his promotion.

He was not willing to personally act against Sarutobi, so if he could take advantage of the situation, it would naturally be the best result.

But before that, he first had to find Orochimaru.

Aoba decided to go to a place to try his luck.

It just so happened that Kakashi wouldn't find trouble with him.

After settling everything, Aoba immediately set off for the destination.

......

Land of Rice was a small country that was connected to Land of Fire. The west was next to Land of Iron, the east was next to Land of Hot Water, and the north was the sea.

When Kumogakure and Konoha fought, the Land of Rice suffered a lot.

However, the Land of Rice did not have its own Ninja Village, and the land area was pitifully small. It was also located in the location of the traffic hub. Therefore, even if Kumogakure slapped his left face, he had to obediently move his right face to Konoha.

Without the deterrence of force, it could not be considered human rights. The Land of Rice had not been annexed. It was completely the result of multiple parties balancing each other. Otherwise, it would have been swallowed by Konoha.

It was in such a situation that Orochimaru successfully bribed the name of the Land of Rice and created Otogakure, with the Eight Notes as the symbol.

Then, he secretly controlled the entire Land of Rice and turned it into his own base camp.

After the assassination of the leader failed, Orochimaru had actually died once, and he had decisively chosen to commit suicide under the siege of Pain Rikudou Sennin and Konan.

Because the extraction of souls in the world could completely kill him, he chose to kill himself after failing.

At the same time, he used Living Corpse Reincarnation to transfer his spirit to the 'Container' that he had already prepared. It was a 'Container' that he had planted in advance, carefully selected and had the highest degree of integration.

This was the bug of Living Corpse Reincarnation and Curse Seal!

Even if Orochimaru died, as long as there was still the existence of the curse seal, he could revive Orochimaru from the curse seal.

It was precisely because he had already prepared a way out for himself that Orochimaru took such a huge risk to assassinate Pain.

No, it should not be Pain.

Because of his secret investigation and the information he had obtained in this battle, the so-called Pain was just a puppet in front of people.

The real leader was hiding in Amegakure, controlling everything behind the scenes.

Although he had been killed by once, it wasn't like he had gained nothing from grasping such an important situation.

However, the way he had been forced to commit suicide would definitely cause the other party to suspect that he was still alive.

Therefore, there was a very high possibility that Akatsuki would definitely chase after him.

Orochimaru's eyes flickered a few times.
