Habara instantly became alert when he saw the figure, although he had already guessed that he might encounter members of the Akatsuki organization when he set out this time.
But he was somewhat surprised that it hit him so quickly, but he wasn't afraid at all.
He still has a certain degree of confidence in his own strength. As long as he doesn't encounter anything too difficult, like Nagato Obito, he won't have any worries.
Even if it's these two people, Hahara doesn't necessarily have to panic - if he can't be beaten, he can definitely outrun him!
"Habara, this guy is a bit weird. His chakra is very strong, and he gives me a very, very dangerous feeling."
Zhisui also spoke now. He frowned and looked at the guy in front of him and whispered.
"Well, I know, it is indeed very strange and very dangerous."
Habara nodded and agreed with Shisui. He didn't know the danger of the guy in front of him. After all, no one who could wear this robe was a simple person.
"Let's show him off. I'm afraid this guy will be our enemy. Judging from his appearance, he is obviously not a ninja from the Ninja Village.
And appearing in this place with many forces, I'm afraid he has the same identity as us now."
"Hire ninjas?"
Zhisui nodded, then he took out a kunai and hid it under his black robe, then he took a deep breath and asked.
"If there's a fight, can I use the Sharingan?"
Although Hahara and the others do not necessarily rely on the Sharingan for their strength, after all, when they reach their level, they can exert powerful power even without using the Sharingan.
But after all, I have long been accustomed to the assistance of Sharingan, and the difference between using it and not using it is still very big.
In particular, Hahara's ultimate power is based on the kaleidoscope. If they don't use it, the impact on them will be very, very big.
"It depends on the situation, use it according to your own judgment."
Hahara thought for a moment and finally made a decision.
"However, once it is used, it must not leave anything alive."
"I understand." Zhisui nodded, and then his eyes were fixed on the guy wearing a black red cloud robe.
This guy seemed to be aware of Hahara and Shisui, and he walked directly towards Hahara and the others without much hesitation.
They were originally only over a hundred meters apart, but within a moment they were less than thirty meters apart.
"Who are you?"
The man wearing a bamboo hat opposite asked directly, his voice was so hoarse yet so recognisable.
As soon as he spoke, both Hahara and Shisui paused. The two of them looked at each other almost subconsciously, because they both recognized who the other person was - Orochimaru!
"So lucky?"
Habara thought silently in his mind that the best person to deal with in the Akatsuki organization was probably Orochimaru.
This is not because Habara underestimates Orochimaru's ability. This guy has lived as a boss from beginning to end and has never truly died.
And the fame this guy gained during World War II and World War III is really no joke!
The most important thing is that Orochimaru will single-handedly crack the secret of the Rinnegan in the future.
To put it bluntly, Orochimaru is really talented in research, and his ninja talents are top-notch. It is impossible for Hanbara to underestimate Orochimaru.
But Orochimaru was too talented in research. After witnessing two ninja wars, his mentality began to change.
After witnessing too many deaths, he began to desire to study and break through the secrets of death, and he actually succeeded in part - by changing the body to allow the soul to continue.
But it was because of this approach that his soul was traumatized, which made his performance a bit unbearable when facing illusion masters.
As an Uchiha, Hahara's illusion ability will naturally not be a problem, even though his illusions focus on actual combat and don't have too many flashy displays.
But for a powerful ninja, a moment of confusion can already determine the direction of a battle.
"Are you Lord Orochimaru, one of the Sannin of Konoha?"
Although Habara was thinking about a lot of messy things, he was very calm and he still spoke in that hoarse voice.
"It's really a pleasure to meet you. I can meet Mr. Orochimaru here. It seems that I am really lucky."
"Oh, are you recognized now?"
Orochimaru licked his tongue gently, and then he slowly took off his hat, his long golden pupils constantly scanning Habara and Shisui.
"Although recognizing us will allow me to avoid the annoying introduction of myself, it seems that you two haven't introduced yourselves yet.
Of course, it’s okay if you don’t want to, after all, I can probably guess the purpose of non-ninja village ninjas like you appearing here.”
At this point, Orochimaru's voice had changed a bit. Even before Hanbara and Shisui recognized him, they could guess what a person like him was doing here.
As a person who has experienced war, how could he not see who Hahara and the others are most likely to be? It is obvious that they are ninjas for hire just like him!
As a hired ninja, you must find out who is hiring the other person. It doesn't matter if it's a boss.
If they are the other party's people, then they are naturally enemies.
"Actually, we didn't expect that Lord Orochimaru would actually join an organization after leaving Konoha.
Don’t get me wrong, I’ve seen costumes like yours before, but I never expected that Orochimaru-dono would appear here as a war-mercenary ninja.”
Habara chuckled, looked at Orochimaru calmly, and then asked curiously.
"It's just that we are also very curious, who hired Mr. Orochimaru or your clan leader?
After all, the clothes Orochimaru-dono is wearing now are ones I have seen on others."
"Do you know me?"
Orochimaru's long golden pupils shrank slightly, and he seemed to feel that the guy in front of him seemed to be quite familiar with him.
Although this feeling is not necessarily reliable, Orochimaru, as a ninja, often still believes in his own feelings.
"Who doesn't know the name of Lord Orochimaru? Speaking of which, I don't want to be an enemy of Lord Orochimaru."
Hahara said nonchalantly, and then he slowly drew out a ninja sword.
"But if by chance, Orochimaru-sama and I are hired by different people, then I'm afraid we won't have much choice."
"I'm afraid I really don't have much choice."
Orochimaru chuckled lightly, and then he threw the hat aside, and his chakra burst out at this moment.
"Looking at where you are coming from, it's no surprise that it should be Sunagakure Village or some other Star Ninja Village. In that case, I'm afraid we will really have to take action."
"Yeah, it's really a pity. Although I don't want to fight Lord Orochimaru, but no matter what..."
Habara sighed faintly, and before his words could be completely finished, he stepped hard on the ground, and in an instant he was at Orochimaru's side.
In a sudden flash of light, the ninja sword was unsheathed and slashed towards Orochimaru very quickly and strangely!
"He gave too much..."
...
"Captain, we are almost at the defense zone of the Star Ninja Village."
About five kilometers away from the defense zone of Xing Ninja Village, a team of about fifty people quietly approached.
They have a clear mission, which is to take over the defense area of the Star Ninja Village, a local force in the Bear Country!
Regarding the Hoshi Ninja Village, a village that does not know what is good and is self-righteous, the people of Iwagakure Village actually have no good impressions of them at all.
After all, let alone the fact that the ninjas of this village regard themselves as shadows, the mere fact that this village attempts to entrust the control of Iwagakure makes them very disgusted.
There is never any benevolence and righteousness between big countries and small countries. As long as the small country has enough rich resources and strategic value, their fate is inevitable.
To be honest, if this Star Ninja Village just lives there and doesn't care about anything, it won't involve anything.
Maybe it can be like the Yu Ninja Village in the Country of Yu. Not to mention development, there is still no problem in just self-protection.
But they are now unwilling to accept the current situation, and such a village has naturally become a common thorn in the side of the two great ninja villages.
The reason why Star Ninja Village survives to this day is because of those natural barriers and the threat from Sunagakure Village.
However, it cannot solve you, and it is still possible to plunder the territory you control.
For example, some of their more strategic defense areas are the goals that Yangakure Village and Sunagakure Village must compete for.
However, it would be unseemly for a major war power of this scale to end it personally. Iwagakure still had some scruples after all, unlike those guys from Sunagakure Village who were so shameless.
Also in order to reduce their own losses, hiring war ninjas to solve these troubles naturally became their first choice.
After all, Iwagakure Village's finances are much better than Sunagakure Village, at least they don't need to import so much food.
"Well, are those guys we hired going in?"
The captain nodded, then he picked up a telescope and looked into the distance while asking.
"According to normal time, they should have gone in."
A rock ninja next to him replied in a low voice, but he still sighed when talking about those hired ninjas.
"Those guys are really powerful. So many enemies were easily eliminated by them. This allowed us to take over these areas so smoothly."
"snort."
However, what this Iwa Ninja never expected was that as soon as he finished speaking, his captain let out a cold snort.
"What's so great about it? What they are dealing with is just a group of guys who don't have enough weapons and don't have enough training.
But we didn't hire these guys to reduce our losses, and to prevent our image in the ninja world from being damaged.
A group of desperadoes who only know how to collect money to do things, what are they so good about?"
The captain's words immediately shut up the Iwa Ninja. Although he didn't particularly agree with his captain's words, he didn't dare to refute.
He really felt that the hired ninjas were very powerful. Although those guys couldn't see their faces clearly, they were really strong.
This Iwa Ninja once saw with his own eyes that those guys easily contributed to a Sand Ninja stronghold and took away all the Sand Ninja inside!
Although those sand ninjas are not particularly strong, they are regular ninjas from a great country. When facing these guys, they are really like lambs to be slaughtered.
"If they are not strong enough, why would Tsuchikage-sama hire them?"
The Iwa Ninja underestimated in a low voice, but at this moment a loud noise interrupted his thoughts, and his captain looked straight into the distance with a telescope.
"What's going on, Captain?"
This Iwa Ninja was a little curious, but unfortunately his captain seemed stunned and didn't answer his words at all.
Such a loud noise also attracted the attention of other Iwa ninjas, and they all looked into the distance. However, at this moment, they all began to be in a daze.
Because in the distance, I don’t know when it turned into a sea of fire...
...
"Is it too much?"
Orochimaru seemed to be very calm. He had experienced all kinds of storms and waves, and such scenes were just small scenes to him.
However, Hahara's words made him raise his eyebrows. Not long ago, he had some conflicts with another guy who wanted others to "give too much."
Now hearing similar words again, his senses were not very good.
"But no matter how much land is given, you still have to have life flowers."
Licking his tongue lightly, Orochimaru muttered something silently, although he activated it almost at the same time as the Hahara Ninja sword was swung, and jumped sideways and backwards.
At the same time, a kunai appeared in his right hand and moved towards Habara at a strange angle.
Shisui watched silently from the side, but he did not take action immediately because he and Hahara had no experience in cooperation before.
Both of them are actually very good at fighting alone. Being good at fighting alone means that their offense is focused on themselves and they don't need to consider the problems of their teammates at all.
They also acted separately in previous missions, so they didn't need to cooperate at all. They could just deal with their enemies by themselves.
Now facing an enemy like Orochimaru, and cooperating forcefully without using the Sharingan, I'm afraid it will be different if his teammates are deceived.
However, his chakra began to boil rapidly. Just because he didn't take action for the time being didn't mean he wouldn't take action.
What he has to do now is to find a good opportunity and cause fatal harm to Orochimaru without affecting Habara!
"Habara seemed very confident. He didn't use the Sharingan to fight Orochimaru. Was he waiting for an opportunity or didn't want to be exposed?
Also, he said that Orochimaru joined an organization, and Orochimaru obviously did not deny it. What kind of organization did he join and need to perform tasks personally? "
Shisui was still very concerned about this kind of thing. Being able to absorb an organization as terrifying as Orochimaru really filled his heart with doubts.
And he was still thinking about one thing, if such an organization could absorb Orochimaru, would Uchiha Itachi be also absorbed by such an organization?
I have to say that Shisui was right to think in this direction, and he really guessed it right!
It's a pity that Habara didn't know this. Even if he didn't use his Sharingan when facing Orochimaru's attack, he could still judge the direction of Orochimaru's attack.
The ninja sword in his hand was swiped quickly. The speed of this sword was staggering. This sword brought the wind escape chakra to quickly block Orochimaru's attack range.
And as long as Orochimaru dares to continue thrusting forward, Orochimaru may have to move his head in the next moment.
"This kind of sword technique?"
Orochimaru is a discerning person, so he can naturally tell at a glance that such sword skills are very powerful.
He thought that he was familiar with many sword skills in the ninja world. After all, he was also very good at using swords, but this was the first time he had seen such sword skills.
Although he thought this mentally, his movements were still smooth. He immediately stopped what he was doing, and at the same time his body deflected in an unusual and uncoordinated way.
Then, he jumped back, completely avoiding Habara's ninja sword, and landed firmly on a boulder.
"Very interesting sword skills. I haven't seen such interesting sword skills in a long time, ever since Hatake Sakumo passed away."
Orochimaru's eyes were locked on Habara, his eyes were filled with amusement and memories, but soon he chuckled and spoke slowly.
"Since you use a knife, I'll cooperate with you."
As he spoke, Orochimaru raised his head, and then a long sword was spit out from his mouth.
Not paying attention to the mucus on it, Orochimaru casually took out his sword and shook it lightly.
"Although I don't know who you are, and I don't know why you are so confident, your teammates don't seem to have any intention of coming up to fight.
But since you have aroused my interest, let’s have fun, I hope you won’t disappoint me!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Orochimaru came to Habara with his sword in hand!
His speed was faster and more terrifying than before, and the sword in his hand carried a natural power.
Such a sword and such an opponent are truly terrifying to the extreme!
Habara also behaved very calmly. After all, he was a person who had been given by the system and had learned the 'Valkyrie' running water sword technique and mastered the water bird flurry.
His sword skills have been incredibly improved after getting the secret book. This is also the confidence for him to not use the Sharingan for the time being!
I saw him slightly adjusting the blade, and the backs of the swords touched each other and passed each other, causing a small spark.
Orochimaru licked his tongue, and the next moment he pushed hard.
Han Yuan seemed to feel a powerful force coming towards him. Fortunately, Han Yuan's body had been significantly improved, otherwise he might have been pushed away by the entire knife.
But he was caught off guard and his sword was instantly deflected.
"It's so powerful, and Orochimaru's skills are also very strong."
Habara sighed mentally, but fortunately his reaction speed was extremely fast. In an instant, he jumped up with the help of Orochimaru's power.
And Orochimaru followed him like a shadow, jumping up almost as soon as Habara jumped up.
But Orochimaru, who had just stood up, suddenly changed his expression, because he saw the Hahara Ninja sword raised above his head in mid-air, with green chakra wrapped around his blade.
In an instant, a feeling of extreme danger surged into his heart...
