"Pain will definitely expel him from the Akatsuki Organization."
"At that time, I will ask Pain to hunt down Orochimaru, and soon Orochimaru will find himself in the most difficult state..."
"..."
Kabuto fell silent.
Why does this feel a bit easy?
In fact.
Things were even easier than Red Sand Sasori had described to Kabuto.
Orochimaru, eager and urgent, finally found Red Sand Sasori in town and immediately pulled him back to the Akatsuki Hideout, trying to find a way to trouble Uchiha Itachi.
It was a bit coincidental.
Fortunately, they returned in time.
Uchiha Itachi hadn't had the chance to follow Biwa Juzo on a mission when Orochimaru came looking to catch up with Uchiha Itachi, seemingly wanting to chat privately about something.
"Hey, newcomer."
Biwa Juzo glanced at Uchiha Itachi and then at Orochimaru, reminding his partner: "That guy Orochimaru is very dangerous, you'd best not go see him!"
"It's okay."
Uchiha Itachi shook his head, not heeding his suggestion.
Because...
Uchiha Itachi also wanted to have a private chat with Orochimaru.
Uchiha Itachi planned to give Orochimaru a lifelong unforgettable lesson, in case that guy Akihara Kagura refuses to acknowledge it in the future?
By the lakeside at the Akatsuki Hideout.
Orochimaru looked at Uchiha Itachi who had followed, a flash of triumphant pride in his eyes. He didn't even intend to disguise it, abruptly turning around as a long snake shot out from his sleeve, directly binding Uchiha Itachi's body!
"Do you know what eternal life is, Itachi?"
Orochimaru looked at Uchiha Itachi, chuckling softly: "Unfortunately, I still don't know, so I need a body that can live longer, a body that will allow me to achieve eternity; your Mangekyo Sharingan is the key to obtaining that body!"
"In the end... it's a question of your desire..."
Uchiha Itachi's eyes were a scarlet red, seemingly unconcerned by Orochimaru's threat, nor by the snake binding his body.
"..."
Orochimaru furrowed his brow.
Orochimaru immediately realized that his body couldn't move at all!
Nothing had actually happened!
Orochimaru quickly realized the problem; he thought he had directly ambushed and bound Uchiha Itachi's body, but he had just fallen into Uchiha Itachi's Sharingan Genjutsu!
However...
This was just the beginning.
Uchiha Itachi gazed at Orochimaru before him, one eye slowly transforming into the Mangekyo Sharingan, and softly said: "The brevity of life is itself a great fortune compared to the long passage of time. If you feel your life is too short, then come and try it..."
In the next moment!
Orochimaru felt himself entering a black-and-white world!
Orochimaru looked up at this black-and-white world, no, this wasn't a purely colorless black-and-white world, because there was also a blood-red moon in the sky!
Orochimaru looked down at his body and found himself bound to a cross. He looked around and saw Orochimaru after Orochimaru tied to crosses, which struck a sudden terror in his heart!
"What on earth... is this Genjutsu?"
"This is the power you wanted to obtain."
Uchiha Itachi's figure appeared beside Orochimaru, softly explaining: "This is my Tsukuyomi World. In the world of Tsukuyomi, time, place, and all factors are under my control..."
After speaking, Uchiha Itachi raised the ninja sword in his hand and stabbed directly into Orochimaru's body, splattering a streak of blood: "I hope you remember this moment and feel the length of life, so you won't fantasize about so-called eternity anymore..."
