Mission Impossible, Is Something Wrong?

Orochimaru's voice echoed throughout the forest.

He could clearly feel that the strange attack had come from directly above. However, because of the backlight, he couldn't make out what was above him.

After a while, he narrowed his eyes, lowered his head, and carefully surveyed his surroundings.

He saw six white light rods, arranged symmetrically, firmly holding him in place, unable to fall.

What kind of magic is this?

Orochimaru gritted his teeth slightly. With his vast experience, he had never encountered anything like this before.

But at that moment, a gray figure suddenly dropped down from above.

*Huum.*

The figure landed on a nearby branch, then instantly began making exaggerated motions, shouting loudly.

"Wow! Senior!! This is incredible, right?! You took him down with just one move?! It's the true eye of the evil king!!"

"?"

Orochimaru's eyes immediately narrowed as he looked toward the source of the noise.

He saw a man wearing a gray ninja suit and an orange Uzumaki mask, with no features at all. The man was still yelling grandly, as though he didn't even notice Orochimaru's presence.

Upon seeing him more clearly, Orochimaru's mind went blank for a moment.

Wait...

Who is this guy?

Shouldn't it be Akatsuki that is waiting here?

In an instant, Orochimaru's thoughts were interrupted. He couldn't think straight.

What's going on?

Who in the world did that guy give my information to?

Hadn't I instructed him to act as a spy, pretending to be Sasori's subordinate and then deliberately leaking my information to Akatsuki?

Did that guy make a mistake?

It stands to reason that anyone from Akatsuki should be wearing their unique uniform...

Orochimaru's mind raced. He had been investigating Akatsuki for some time. When he first learned from the information network of the Wind Country that an Akatsuki member was looking into Sasori of the Red Sand, he began preparing a plan.

This time, he had deliberately let his mission, Yakushi Kabuto, reveal his actions to Akatsuki, hoping to gather more intelligence.

But now, the person who appeared was wearing a mask and seemed to be a completely different figure.

"Hey."

Orochimaru squinted at the masked figure in front of him and spoke in a low, gravelly voice.

"Are you from Akatsuki?"

However, before the masked man could answer, another figure dropped from the sky, landing directly in front of Orochimaru.

When Orochimaru saw the familiar red cloud and black robes, his eyes flickered.

Is it Akatsuki?

But before he could react further, something even more shocking happened.

This time, the man who fell didn't land on a branch. He was... levitating in midair?

Orochimaru's eyes widened as he stared at the figure.

He saw the man wearing the signature Akatsuki robe, holding an unsheathed short sword in his hand. His short brown hair, angular face, and fair skin were all distinct. And... those golden pupils burned with an intense glow.

Orochimaru's eyes narrowed again. He didn't wear a ninja forehead protector.

A grin spread across Orochimaru's face, a cold, sinister smile.

"Tsk, tsk..."

"A member of Akatsuki, huh..."

"Is it too rude to use this trick when we meet for the first time?"

He looked at Kuzo, smirking as he spoke. "Shouldn't you introduce yourself first, golden-eyed boy?"
