Chapter 28 - Chapter 28: Searching for Orochimaru

Although Sasori was a bit arrogant, he wasn't lying.

In the original story, Sasori had planned to deal with Orochimaru.

Before he was killed by his grandmother after holding back, he told Sakura about the meeting with an informant at the Tenchi Bridge in a few days.

Yuichi's appearance had saved Sasori.

He also didn't give Sasori the chance to be moved by his grandmother.

So, the plan to deal with Orochimaru...

...naturally had to be completed by Sasori.

Yuichi asked Sasori, "Since you plan to deal with Orochimaru, do you know where he is?"

Sasori, while walking, said in a low voice, "Of course."

"I have a spy planted by Orochimaru's side."

"We were originally scheduled to meet in a few days."

"But now! We can contact him a little earlier."

Hearing this, Yuichi recalled the scene of the great battle at the Tenchi Bridge.

He nodded lightly.

"Then let's hurry!"

Sasori looked at the hasty Yuichi, feeling a bit speechless.

Does this guy want to participate in the Tailed Beast capture mission that much?!

This belligerent guy. As expected, I should team up with someone else in the future.

If he continued to act with Yuichi, he would definitely be dragged into unnecessary trouble in the future.

Now, Sasori had some lingering trauma from the last mission.

Because he didn't want to be pursued, he waited in place to wipe out all the pursuing enemies at once.

Sasori couldn't bring himself to praise such a way of thinking.

After dealing with Orochimaru this time, he would honestly switch to another teammate.

Teaming up with Deidara would be good. Sasori felt he got along with that kid.

After leaving the fog-shrouded Amegakure.

They followed Sasori, rushing all the way.

Yuichi and Sasori advanced rapidly through the forest.

Soon, they reached a small village.

"Let's rest for a night and continue tomorrow!"

Sasori spoke.

He turned to look at Yuichi, who hadn't stopped at all.

Originally, Yuichi had no intention of resting, as it was a waste of time.

But considering Sasori, there was plenty of time.

So, a short rest wouldn't hurt.

Furthermore.

Yuichi was currently experiencing his new ability.

The new changes brought by Hyper Intuition.

Under the influence of this ability, Yuichi found that he could vaguely sense Sasori's emotional changes.

When Sasori suggested resting for a night, he felt a bit irritable in his heart, even resentful towards him.

However, after he agreed, Sasori's mood stabilized a lot.

This ability to vaguely sense even other people's emotions satisfied Yuichi.

Through a person's emotions, one could also judge things!

However, besides that, as Yuichi experienced the Hyper Intuition ability more and more carefully.

He discovered that there seemed to be something else on his body.

Behind the two of them, something had been following them.

The two had just left Amegakure.

So, the one following them couldn't be a ninja from another village.

There was only one answer.

Zetsu!

The thing on his body should also be a Zetsu technique.

Every Akatsuki member probably had one on them.

At the very least, Yuichi also felt this kind of thing on Sasori.

It wasn't a feeling detected by chakra.

A strange feeling in the dark made Yuichi feel that there was something else on his body.

Yuichi was liking the Hyper Intuition ability more and more now.

He could even sense Zetsu's technique, which was originally impossible to discover.

He didn't know how this ability would perform in battle.

Yuichi was looking forward to it now.

At this time, Sasori and Yuichi walked into this nameless town.

They randomly found an inn and checked in.

In a nameless town like this, even if both of them were wearing Akatsuki clothes.

They didn't care at all about being discovered.

Even if they were discovered in a place like this, there was no need to worry.

However, this was only based on Sasori's past experience.

What he didn't know.

Was that things were different now.

Because of Yuichi's high-profile actions during the capture of the One-Tail.

One person wreaking havoc in Sunagakure, forcibly capturing the Kazekage, and beating the Suna ninja to a pulp.

Such a thing had long caused a sensation in the shinobi world.

Furthermore, Sunagakure had placed a sky-high bounty on Yuichi.

Yuichi's portrait had long been spread throughout the underworld.

The moment Yuichi and Sasori stepped into the town, someone noticed their attire.

And immediately went to contact the ninja of the five great ninja villages.

This kind of intelligence was valuable.

Especially the more timely the intelligence, the more valuable it was.

So, while Yuichi and Sasori were resting.

Konoha, Sunagakure, and Kirigakure, the three villages that were interested in this intelligence, all received the news that Akatsuki members had appeared in a certain town.

Due to the distance, Sunagakure received the news the latest. Granny Chiyo had died in the village, and the Kazekage, Gaara, had just returned.

They were in the middle of stabilizing the internal problems of the village.

They had no time to deal with such rumors and intelligence.

The situation in Kirigakure was also similar.

In the end, only Konoha reacted relatively quickly.

Although it was just a rumor.

Tsunade cared.

Because a few days ago, the reports from Might Guy and Kakashi were still vivid in her mind.

The rogue ninja kid from Kirigakure possessed powerful taijutsu and a terrifying Ice Style Kekkei Genkai.

He had successively defeated Might Guy and Kakashi, two of Konoha's powerful elite jonin.

Although it seemed that neither of them had had time to display their true combat power before being defeated.

But at only a teenager's age, to be able to defeat both Kakashi and Might Guy so cleanly.

The name Yuichi had become a concern for Tsunade.

Tsunade was even more wary of the Akatsuki.

There was more than one powerful person in the Akatsuki.

The first thing she did after receiving the news.

Tsunade directly ignored the question of whether the news was true or false.

Even if it was false news, she didn't care.

It was necessary to send a team of ninja to that place to check.

But Kakashi was seriously injured and was recuperating.

Might Guy had just gone on another mission. The suitable teams in the village were Naruto and Sakura.

"Kakashi can't act, so it seems we have to reform Team 7."

Thus, Yamato was assigned as the new team leader for Naruto and the others.

Danzo, who had caught wind of this, also took the opportunity to insert a Root ninja.

Sai!

Team 7 was reformed.

The next day, the new Team 7 was dispatched to investigate the traces of Akatsuki members who might have appeared in a certain place.

At this time, Yuichi and Sasori had naturally left the town.

They continued towards Orochimaru's location.

A certain island.

Sasori had sent a message in advance, arranging to meet Kabuto Yakushi at the Tenchi Bridge.

However, Kabuto replied to Sasori's message, saying that he would have time to meet at noon the next day.

Near the Tenchi Bridge, Yuichi and Sasori found a place to rest.

They waited for the meeting the next day.

The bored Yuichi sat in a corner of the cave.

He used his surged chakra to release the power of the Ice-Ice Fruit.

The continuously spreading frost soon covered the entire cave.

Yuichi was satisfied with this effect.

To have this kind of power without activating the Kāma, wouldn't it be even stronger after activating it?!

"Hey!"

"That's enough!"

"It's cold. Hurry up and take back your power!"

Sasori, who was covered in a layer of frost, was looking at Yuichi angrily.

Yuichi shrugged!

"I know!"
