"It's you!"
The man approached, wearing a black coat that covered his entire body.
The sharpness of his eyes was concealed by his glasses.
Indeed, it was him.
He chuckled lightly.
"Oh, I didn't expect Nanaya-kun to recognize me."
This was Yakushi Kabuto, a notable antagonist in the later stages of Naruto. How could Nanaya forget him?
"I didn't expect Nanaya-kun to turn from a special Genin to a special Jōnin in an instant. This is something unprecedented in Konoha."
Yakushi Kabuto was flattering, as expected.
Orochimaru's intelligence network was truly extensive; it hadn't been long since Nanaya became a special Jōnin, yet Kabuto already knew. Orochimaru had many spies in Konoha Village.
At least the Kabuto trio who participated in the Chūnin exams were Orochimaru's subordinates.
Repeatedly, Kabuto reached the final stage but would give up the exam.
Konoha's eternal Genin, he was also part of Kabuto's operations.
But he was merely gathering information in Konoha.
Nanaya wasn't interested in Kabuto's flattery or idle chatter.
"Just get to the point."
"Nanaya-kun, I'm here to discuss with you the plan to control Konoha."
"You? You're not worthy. Call Orochimaru to come!"
Nanaya's words were confident, and even Kabuto's mouth twitched slightly.
He had come to discuss matters with Uchiha Nanaya on behalf of Orochimaru.
And yet, the other party said he wasn't worthy.
Besides him, no one else could represent Orochimaru.
In his mind, Orochimaru had told him to keep an eye on this man named Uchiha Nanaya.
Now that he saw him, he felt it was nothing significant.
The plan to control Konoha was first proposed by Nanaya.
Could it be that Orochimaru-sama couldn't handle it?
After all, he had the level of Kakashi.
Poor Kakashi, both a unit of measurement and a benchmark for combat strength.
While Kabuto was surprised that Nanaya discovered his presence, that was about it.
He didn't think Uchiha Nanaya had the ability to control Konoha at all.
"Nanaya-kun, am I not worthy?"
In Kabuto's view, Orochimaru-sama was being overly cautious.
This Uchiha Nanaya seemed insignificant to him.
"Only Orochimaru is qualified to discuss this matter with me; you're really not worthy."
Uchiha Nanaya's confident demeanor elicited a chuckle.
He had already grown tired of the conversation.
Kabuto activated his Chakra Scalpel.
"I'll deal with you, and Orochimaru-sama will have fewer worries."
However, Uchiha Nanaya didn't even glance at him.
He was simply contemplating whether to go to sleep to gain experience.
Forget it; going home to sleep would likely yield more experience.
"A la la—"
Cold air emanated from Nanaya's mouth.
Suddenly, the entire forest's temperature dropped dramatically.
"What's with this cold air?"
Three huge icicles suddenly appeared in front of Nanaya and rushed toward Kabuto.
"Is this guy creating ice out of thin air?"
"Orochimaru-sama mentioned that although this guy is from the Uchiha clan, he has the ability to manipulate ice."
Kabuto's right hand wielded the Chakra Scalpel, slicing downward.
A crack!
The three icicles were split in half.
"You b*****d, disturbing my sleep!"
Nanaya looked at him coldly.
Although the three icicles were broken, Kabuto found that his right hand was also frozen.
The ice slowly crept across him.
No matter how much chakra he gathered, he couldn't dispel the freeze.
What kind of power was this?
Did he need to give up his right hand?
When Kabuto considered severing his right hand, it was too late.
His entire body was encased in ice, and he couldn't even utter a plea for help.
At this moment, he realized the chasm between himself and Nanaya was insurmountable.
"Wasting another few seconds of my sleep time."
When Nanaya was about to shatter the ice sculpture,
An eerie voice came from the forest.
"Nanaya-kun, please be merciful; I still need Kabuto."
The voice of Orochimaru emanated from the forest, and an inexplicable smile appeared on Nanaya's face.
"Orochimaru, I thought you wouldn't show up."
A large snake supported Orochimaru's body as he approached Nanaya.
"Nanaya-kun, congratulations on becoming a Jōnin. I haven't seen you for a few days, and your strength has grown once again!"
Even Orochimaru himself remained extremely cautious in the presence of Uchiha Nanaya.
"Orochimaru, long story short, I have a plan to control Konoha. Are you interested?"
"Tsk tsk, interested, naturally interested."
Orochimaru glanced at the ice sculpture.
"Nanaya-kun, Kabuto has been infiltrating Konoha for a long time. He's gathered a lot of information and might be of little help to your plan. Please release him first."
Nanaya didn't intend to kill Kabuto; he just wanted to speak directly with Orochimaru.
The current Kabuto was truly not qualified.
Snap!
Nanaya snapped his fingers, and the ice encasing Kabuto disappeared instantly.
The defrosted Kabuto was pale, staring at Uchiha Nanaya with a terrified expression.
He had smelled death just now.
Uchiha Nanaya, this man, could render him powerless in mere seconds.
This kind of power was formidable.
When Orochimaru instructed him to monitor this man, Kabuto hadn't understood.
Now, he understood completely.
The man before him was even more dangerous than Orochimaru-sama.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Kabuto, you were too heated, so I cooled you down."
Kabuto's face twitched slightly.
This was called cooling down? I was almost killed by you, and now he didn't dare to say anything.
Orochimaru's face was full of exasperation; his subordinate was nearly killed, and Nanaya spoke so lightly.
"Then, Nanaya-kun, what exactly is your plan to control Konoha?"
Ha ha—
Uchiha Nanaya chuckled, not directly answering Orochimaru's question.
"If you were to face the current Third Hokage, are you confident you could defeat him?"
The Third Hokage, that teacher of mine, is truly nostalgic!
Orochimaru licked his lips with his long tongue.
"Old Sarutobi is powerful, but now that he's aged, I naturally have the strength to defeat him."
What Orochimaru said was true; the current Third Hokage had entered his twilight years.
And he also had his own trump card, Forbidden Techniques, to deal with an old man—it wasn't a problem.
The next words from Uchiha Nanaya made Orochimaru tremble.
"If you want to control a village, you must first eliminate the village's leader. We must first deal with the Third Hokage."
Orochimaru understood the principle of capturing the king to defeat the enemy.
But it's not that simple to eliminate the Third Hokage; Konoha has a group of Elite Jōnin and the Anbu.
This isn't a solo venture.
Yet, Nanaya's words still piqued Orochimaru's deep interest, and the cold blood in his veins began to boil.
