"Uh ..."

Resisting the urge to turn around and run, Orochimaru looked at Uzumaki Nagato in shock.

He didn't understand how the other party could utter such brazen words!

'If Uchiha Madara came, would he run away?'

'Letting me go forward?'

Orochimaru glanced at Uchiha Fugaku quietly. He wanted to see Uchiha Fugaku's expression.

However, he was surprised to find that Uchiha Fugaku was as expressionless as if nothing had happened.

"Intermediate Armament Haki does have a certain degree of restraint toward the Impure World Reincarnation."

Orochimaru thought about it, fearing that Uzumaki Nagato would think too much, and added:

"Simply put, an Impure World Reincarnated person that gets broken up by Armament Haki will need more time to recover."

"Oh?"

Hearing Orochimaru's words, a gleam of light appeared in Uzumaki Nagato's eyes.

Orochimaru saw the light in Uzumaki Nagato's eyes and secretly exclaimed in his heart. When he was about to say something, Uzumaki Nagato had already spoken first.

"Orochimaru..."

"I thought about it. No one among the shinobis knows more about the Impure World Reincarnation than you ..."

"In Akatsuki, none of these people know how to conduct battles better than you either. Therefore, I am going to make you the person in charge of this operation to defend against Uchiha Madara."

Uzumaki Nagato directly took off the 'Rei' ring representing his identity and pushed it in front of Orochimaru.

"Uh ..."

Orochimaru was now baffled by Uzumaki Nagato's sloppy actions.

He blankly stared at Uzumaki Nagato and mechanically at Uchiha Fugaku.

'Is there no one else who could command the battle?'

Orochimaru suspiciously looked at Uzumaki Nagato.

If he were able to defeat this guy himself, his Kusanagi sword would have been on Uzumaki Nagato's shoulder by now.

'No one else could be in charge.... You have got to be kidding me!'

'Akatsuki, that group of miscellaneous people. Let them go at it alone. One is braver than the other. Let them direct the battle by themselves. Let a courageous one go, let them take command ...!'

Except for Sasori, who could control everyone to storm the enemy with puppetry, not caring if anyone lives or dies afterward, Orochimaru felt that the others, if they took charge, would be the first ones to go forward.

But the problem was...

'Akatsuki now has Uchiha Fugaku!'

'The great Uchiha Patriarch was here. Why should I be the one to command in battle?'

'Besides, I haven't agreed to be the commander!'

"Don't look at him. Patriarch Fugaku can't do it."

Uzumaki Nagato interrupted Orochimaru's contemplation and continued, "You were a Commander in the Second Shinobi World War. Moreover, you have both the ability and experience."

Uzumaki Nagato didn't spare any of his praise. In fact, it was Uchiha Fugaku's personal recommendation to have Orochimaru command this battle.

"Although Patriarch Fugaku is also capable, he doesn't understand the fighting abilities and methods of Akatsuki's members.

Furthermore, Deidara and the others wouldn't accept the Patriarch Fugaku's command."

Hearing Uzumaki Nagato's affirmative tone and knowing that the leader's decision couldn't be changed, Orochimaru's eyes looked straight at Uzumaki Nagato.

As if reading Orochimaru's thoughts, Uzumaki Nagato faintly smiled.

"Orochimaru, what do you want?"

"Power, absolute power! In the battle with Madara, everyone should listen to me!"

Orochimaru licked his lips and continued to try.

"Including Uchiha Fugaku!"

"Okay."

It was Uchiha Fugaku who spoke. A faint smile appeared at the corners of his mouth, leaving Orochimaru confused for a moment as to what the relationship between Nagato and Uchiha Fugaku was.

Orochimaru took a deep look at Uchiha Fugaku and put Akatsuki's 'Rei' ring on his hand.

"Since it's a battle plan, it still needs a name!"

Uzumaki Nagato's eyes wandered for a moment, then looked at Orochimaru, " What do you guys think? How about calling it Operation Eye Protection?"

"..."

Orochimaru speechlessly looked at Uzumaki Nagato.

Since the end of the first exam, his own leader was increasingly out of place.

Orochimaru nodded indifferently, somewhat approving of Uzumaki Nagato's naming.

Anyway, it didn't affect his next battle and arrangement, so Orochimaru didn't care.

....

A few hours later, the corners of Uchiha Madara's mouth picked up as she expressionlessly looked at the rain-soaked Amegakure.

"Cheeky bastards!"

Uchiha Madara smiled disdainfully as he felt the depressing atmosphere in Amegakure.

To Uchiha Madara, the Rainmaker Technique was just a small trick.

Whoosh!

As Uchiha Madara stepped into Amegakure with one foot, the Rainmaker Technique was instantly dispersed.

It was a rare sunny day in Amegakure.

"Do you want to dance too?"

Uchiha Madara looked at the man in front of him with great interest.

He had a slick-back hairstyle, wearing a red cloud robe, and what surprised Uchiha Madara slightly was the huge scythe in his hand.

"Haha!"

Looking at Uchiha Madara, Hidan suddenly laughed bizarrely. He wanted to see if Uchiha Madara was really as amazing as Orochimaru said!

"Armament Haki!"

Buzz~

A bizarre buzzing sound was heard. Whether it was Hidan, or the red cloud robe on Hidan's body, or the huge scythe in his hand, all of it instantly turned pitch black.

"Hmm?"

Uchiha Madara was surprised to see Hidan's change.

This was the first time he had seen this strange jutsu that could change the color of one's own body.

Hidan looked at Uchiha Madara. His mouth was wide open, and the tip of his tongue brushed over his teeth.

Originally, he didn't want to participate in this battle, but Orochimaru only said a sentence, and he agreed.

"Orochimaru is right. A sacrifice like you will please Jashin-sama!"

Hidan laughed, and at the next moment, he directly charged towards Uchiha Madara, wielding his huge scythe.

Whoosh!

Hidan wasn't fast, but the distance between the two was so close that he quickly arrived in front of Uchiha Madara.

He then leaped up high, holding his scythe with both hands, and vertically slashed towards Uchiha Madara.

Bang!

When the huge blade of the scythe was half an inch away from Uchiha Madara, the scythe suddenly halted in the air.

Hidan looked surprised. He didn't know when somehow a circle of transparent blue ribs appeared in front of Uchiha Madara.

Above the ribs, a bone hand grew out and was gently gripping Hidan's scythe.

Seeing the other holding the scythe pole, Hidan suddenly showed a cruel smile on his face, and then his arm gently shook.

Bang!

The front end of the scythe that was grabbed by the skeleton hand suddenly ejected and bounced through the gap in Susanoo's bones, heading towards Uchiha Madara.

Uchiha Madara glanced at Hidan, and a playful light flashed in his eyes as he allowed his opponent's scythe to slice through his body.

Whoosh!

The scythe was extremely sharp, and its tip instantly jabbed into Uchiha Madara.

When Hidan saw this, surprise instantly appeared on his face. He pulled back and collected the end of the scythe.

"Ha ha ha, I've got your blood..."

'?'

'??'

"Where's the blood??"

Hidan's laughter came to an abrupt end as if his throat was suddenly choked.

He looked at the disdain in Uchiha Madara's eyes in horror, directly dropped his scythe, and ran back.

"Orochimaru! There's no blood at all!!! How dare you lie to me!!?!?"

Uchiha Madara looked at Hidan, who ran and squealed like a pig, sneered and threw the scythe.

Whoosh!

The scythe spun as if it was a giant shuriken with a strange shape and caught up with Hidan, who tried to escape.

Whoosh!

Without resistance, the flying scythe directly sliced Hidan's neck.
