"Alright! As long as you're confident!"
Orochimaru nodded knowingly, a glint of amusement in his eyes, as if silently mourning the Second Hokage's impending misfortune.
Then, out of curiosity, he asked, "But you informed me that the downfall of the Senju Clan is tied to the old man and Danzo—that much I get. But Uchiha Kagami? Are you telling me even he was secretly taken out by Danzo and his cronies?"...

"Oh? Is that so?"
Orochimaru raised an eyebrow with keen interest and said, "In that case, let's wait for now."
"After all, there's no shortage of test subjects on the frontlines for the time being, and many experiments aren't suitable for these conditions anyway," he added with a sinister grin.
"However, Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu… they intrigue me even more."
"Who wou...

"Agreed!" Orochimaru declared firmly.
The next moment, the rune turned into a streak of light, merging into his hand before he could react. Instantly, it entered the center of his mind's sea of consciousness and settled there.
At that moment, Orochimaru felt his consciousness and soul become significantly more stable.
Before he could explore the change, waves of information began flooding his mind....

At this moment, Kaito noticed through his talent that Orochimaru's favorability toward him had skyrocketed to 67 points.
It was clear—Orochimaru was extremely satisfied with what he'd been offered. Compared to before, this was a significant improvement.
"No rush!"
Kaito smiled and shook his head. "This is only the first benefit. There are still more to come!"
"Your second benefi...

"So, they've completely lost sight of what's important!"
Kaito shook his head with a chuckle. "As long as you hold absolute power, what's the point of clinging to these trivial, meaningless rights?"
"Isn't that just looking for trouble?"
"Fists are power! That's the true essence of authority!"
"As long as my strength is overwhelming, even if I delegate all the Hokage's powers to others, I wou...

"Those eyes! ... Could it be...?"
Kakashi's expression changed drastically when he saw the eyes of Tendo Pain.
"No way!"
"What is it, Kakashi?"
Guy asked, seeing Kakashi's shocked reaction.
"His eyes… they're the legendary Rinnegan!"
"Rinnegan?"
Guy looked confused.
Uchiha Kitaro explained calmly, "The Rinnegan is one of the Three Great Doju...

The group couldn't help but wear exasperated expressions after hearing Uchiha Kitaro's words.
"If your talent is 'just average,' then what are we? Born idiots?"
They had no idea that Kitaro genuinely believed what he said.
He deeply admired scientific-minded ninjas like the Second Hokage and Orochimaru, who created various powerful jutsu. Yet, the one he respected most was ...

Uchiha Kitaro used Soru to instantly appear among the group of Root ANBU ninjas. With the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit infused into his fist, he slammed it into the ground.
BOOM!
The terrifying quake shattered the earth effortlessly.

Countless ANBU members were hurled into the air, coughing up blood from the sheer force of ...

Uchiha Shisui was pumped—finally, some opponents worth his time.
Kakashi and Guy, on the other hand, were dumbfounded. "You've got to be kidding. Sure, we've heard Shisui's strong, but no way can he handle this many enemies alone, right?"
Uchiha Kitaro noticed their concern and flashed a confident smile. "Relax, you two. Shisui's no pushover. It's time for you to see the kind of special power we've acq...

"Kitaro, are we really going after Orochimaru? Do you even know where he is?"
Might Guy asked Uchiha Kitaro with a mix of curiosity and concern.
"Yeah, more or less. After all, he's my teacher. I know him pretty well," Kitaro replied casually.
"But Kitaro, Orochimaru is extremely dangerous," Kakashi interjected, his tone serious. His missions had exposed him to plenty of intel about Orochimaru, inc...

"If you can figure out how to develop a dojutsu that doesn't rely on the Sharingan, that would be even better! Go for it—I'm rooting for you!" Uzumaki Mito said with an encouraging smile.
"Uh…" Kaito scratched his head awkwardly and waved his hand dismissively. "I'll try, but I don't think it's likely."
"See, since it's a dojutsu, it naturally requires ocular power."

Uchiha Naori nodded in agreement after hearing Uzumaki Mito's suggestion.
"While the timing isn't perfect, with your current reputation and achievements, Kaito, it's still unlikely you can become Hokage just yet.

At this moment, the new contractees had just about digested the information Kaito had given them and began opening their eyes one after another.
They couldn't help but burst into excited chatter:
"So that's how it is! No wonder these guys improve so quickly in their training! It's all thanks to Lord Kaito's incredible gifts! Damn it! Why didn't any of you tell me earlier?"

Tsunade's eyes widened in shock as she exclaimed, "Are you serious? Why didn't you mention this before? When did you figure it out?"
"Uh…"
Kaito scratched the back of his head awkwardly and replied, "It's been a while, I guess. Didn't I tell you?"
Actually, it had been several years since he noticed it. About three months after starting to train in the Flying Thunder God Technique, h...

With those words, Kaito stomped his foot on the ground, and to everyone's shock, he directly dispelled the barrier.

Right now, the Uchiha clan just so happens to possess incredibly effective healing medicines and advanced medical techniques.
Their secret weapon? A top-notch doctor named Dr. Kureha, who they somehow managed to recruit. Her medical skills are absolutely exceptional.

Hatake Sakumo's loyalty was always to Konoha, not specifically to the Third Hokage.
If the Uchiha clan ever harmed Konoha's interests, he wouldn't hesitate to act against them.
But if it was only the interests of the Third Hokage or the clans supporting him that were at stake, then it wasn't his concern.
This was the principle he lived by.

Because Asuma was the son of the Third Hokage, there was nothing Anko could do about this persistent creep. She could only stay by Kurenai's side to protect her from him.
Hearing Uchiha Kitaro's mockery and Anko's laughter, Asuma's already dark complexion seemed to darken further. His fists clenched, veins bulging on his arms.
He had been tailing Kurenai like usual, but the moment she saw Uchiha Kitaro, the look ...

Anko's punch had landed square on Uchiha Kitaro's chest, and she didn't exactly hold back. If it weren't for his tough physique, anyone else might've been flattened.

Kakashi and Guy's expressions shifted as they processed the offer.
For Kakashi, memories of his parents' deaths weighed heavily. His father's suicide during his childhood had left deep scars. The darkness of Konoha that Kakashi witnessed in his youth seemed inevitable, part of a shinobi's burden.
It had shaped his cold demeanor and belief that a true ninja should never let emotions interfere—even if it meant sa...
