Chapter 1040 - Ch.1040 Arrival!

After the members' projections disappeared one after another, Obito turned to the 'Deva Path' and said, "The Ninja Village Alliance initiated the war proactively, they must be prepared. We'd better be careful!"

"Hmph."

Although the 'Deva Path' nodded in agreement, his tone was indifferent, seemingly not taking it too seriously.

Zetsu spoke up at the right moment: "According to intelligence, the simulation effect of Shinji Uchiha's 'Takamagahara' is highly correlated with his familiarity with the target. Therefore, his Mangekyo Dojutsu can maximize the power of intelligence, which is a considerable variable!"

"Exactly!"

Konan nodded in agreement.

In their view, Shinji had currently only fought Hiruko and Ranmaru in the Hidden Leaf, so it was reasonable that the simulation of other organization members was somewhat distorted.

However, as long as the war continued and battles occurred frequently, the latest combat intelligence of various organization members would inevitably be continuously aggregated to Shinji Uchiha.

At that time, Shinji Uchiha's Mangekyo Dojutsu could simulate every organization member in the genjutsu infinitely close to reality.

This was undoubtedly a huge hidden danger for the organization!

Seeing Konan also agreed, the 'Deva Path' asked Obito, "Then what do you suggest?"

Obito said decisively, "Shinji Uchiha must die!"

The 'Deva Path' said, "Are you planning to take action personally?"

Obito shook his head, "No, I still have one matter to deal with at present!"

Konan was puzzled, "Is it more urgent than dealing with Shinji Uchiha?"

"Yes!"

Obito nodded.

The matter he was currently anxious to deal with was naturally finding the spy within the organization who provided intelligence to the ninja villages.

Moreover, he already had a suspect, just no evidence for the time being, so he had to keep an eye on the other party personally.

The 'Deva Path' rejected, "I don't have time to deal with Shinji Uchiha for now!"

Obito smiled, "Don't worry, I've already found someone willing to help us take action!"

Konan asked, "Who?"

"Orochimaru!"

Saying that, Obito mentioned his agreement with Orochimaru.

Konan asked, "That guy Orochimaru betrayed the organization before. Is he trustworthy?"

Obito was full of confidence, "Just for Shinji Uchiha's pair of Mangekyo Sharingan, he will try his best this time!"

Regarding the cooperation between Obito and Orochimaru, the 'Deva Path' was noncommittal.

Or rather, he didn't care about these details.

The massive chakra of fully five Tailed Beasts had already allowed his body to break free from the limitations of the 'Gedo Statue' and completely recover.

No, it should be said that he had reached an unprecedented peak state!

In this state, whether it was Orochimaru or Shinji Uchiha, they were just inconspicuous little stones on his way forward!

Obito deliberately concealed the fact that Orochimaru had used 'Impure World Reincarnation' on Madara Uchiha. After all, he was currently cooperating with Nagato under the name of 'Madara Uchiha'.

Once Nagato knew that Orochimaru had brought out Madara Uchiha with 'Impure World Reincarnation', he would have to confess his true identity. And this was obviously something he wasn't willing to do because he still needed to use Madara Uchiha's prestige to enhance his voice within the organization.

Releasing the projection, Obito and Zetsu returned to their secret base.

Obito frowned slightly, "Nagato still hasn't shown up, even the 'Magic Lantern Body Technique' was activated using the 'Deva Path'. This is too suspicious!"

Zetsu shrugged, "He might be guarding against us!"

Obito said, "Hmph, in the decisive battle with the Five Kage, he must take action. I want to see how long he can hide!"

Pausing, Obito continued, "Next, I'm going to keep an eye on Itachi. You get the White Zetsu army ready! The Fourth Great Ninja War has already begun, we must go all out!"

Undoubtedly, Obito's suspect was Itachi!

Zetsu smiled, "Understood!"

Inside the snow peak marked as 'Target Seven' by the Ninja Village Alliance.

After releasing the projection of the 'Magic Lantern Body Technique', the consciousness of Mōryō and Shinnō returned to the messy mountain belly battlefield.

Shinnō complained, "Dealing with the Eight-Tails is a tough job! Everyone knows the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer B stays with the Fourth Raikage all day. If I'm not mistaken, the other four Kage might also be together. If things go wrong, we might stir up a hornet's nest!"

Mōryō seemed not to hear Shinnō's complaint, deep in thought.

Like the Miko, as a demon, Mōryō also possessed extraordinary sensing abilities. So when accepting the 'Magic Lantern Body Technique' from the 'Deva Path', he sensed Nagato's chakra behind the 'Deva Path' and was shocked by the other party's majestic chakra amount for a moment.

Noticing Mōryō's abnormality, Shinnō asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing!"

Mōryō shook his head.

He originally thought that after recovering to his peak state, he could run rampant in the Ninja World. Now it seemed he still had to continue to endure until he devoured the Miko.

Shinnō urged, "Let's go, we need to meet up with Itachi and Jūzō Biwa as soon as possible!"

Mōryō smiled, "No rush, let's deal with this place first before leaving!"

Saying that, he came in front of Mifune.

Mifune, seriously injured and fallen to the ground, had lost the ability to move due to excessive blood loss, lying on the ground unable to move.

Mōryō came to him, extended his right hand forward. A tentacle protruded from the wound of the severed hand at the elbow, instantly piercing into Mifune's body, lifting Mifune up, and mocked, "To actually believe a kid's dojutsu can simulate my true strength! You are a fool, and the Five Kage are also fools!"

Mifune coughed blood and said, "Defeated by your hands, it's my incompetence, but you are destined to fail!"

Mōryō snorted coldly, "Is that so? What a stubborn guy, not despairing even now! Then you are useless to me, die!"

Swish...

Just as Mōryō prepared to end Mifune's life, suddenly a figure flashed by, and the tentacle he pierced into Mifune's body snapped in response!

"!?"

Mōryō was stunned for a moment.

Not only him, but even Mifune close at hand, and Shinnō not far away were also startled because the opponent's speed completely exceeded their expectations.

Subsequently, Mōryō saw clearly the appearance of the person who cut off his tentacle: "Dog mask, you are 'C'?"

Undoubtedly, the one who cut off Mōryō's tentacle with this sword strike was Haku, who rushed here from the Hidden Leaf with the help of Yakumo's space-time dojutsu 'Red Dragon's' spatial displacement.

Dressed in the Akatsuki organization's red cloud cloak and wearing a dog mask, Haku slowly turned around at this moment, pointing his sword straight at Mōryō.

The ninja corpses lying in disorder in the mountain belly, and that high pile of corpses, made him furious, overflowing with killing intent!

Just as Mōryō and Shinnō in the mountain belly were bewildered, a series of gentle footsteps came from the cave passage connecting to the mountain belly...
