That guy had nearly driven him insane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Back so soon? Don't tell me you two had a falling out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minato raised an eyebrow, surprised at how quickly Takuya had returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the leader of the Hyūga Clan seeks you out, you'd expect at least a decent-length conversation. But this? It was over just like that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't even mention it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takuya looked pained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I sat there watching him make tea for over ten minutes, and he still wasn't done. I was literally nodding off—you have no idea how agonizing it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Every little movement had to be perfect. The Hyūga Clan is full of lunatics, and their leader is the worst of them all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He used to think Hyūga Suzune was extreme.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, compared to Hiashi, Suzune was a mere child—no, a little sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiashi was the real nightmare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minato blinked, then chuckled awkwardly as he scratched his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good thing I wasn't there. I probably would've suffered even more than you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takuya hated pointless waiting, and so did Minato.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Meanwhile, deep within a hidden underground lab somewhere in the village, Orochimaru was busy with his experiments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But today, he had an unexpected guest—one that shocked and infuriated him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pausing his work, Orochimaru's golden snake-like pupils narrowed sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was his instinctive reaction to tension and surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whenever Orochimaru's eyes took on that shape, there was no doubt—he was prepared to attack at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Surprised to see me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perched atop a cabinet, Black Zetsu—controlling Uchiha Obito's body—looked down at Orochimaru with a condescending gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pale smile crept onto Orochimaru's face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll admit, I am a little surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is Konoha. If a fight breaks out, the village will find this place in no time. Especially Yagami Takuya—if he shows up, I doubt you'll have an easy time escaping.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How had this thing managed to sneak in undetected?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did it even find his hideout?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orochimaru had to admit—Black Zetsu's arrival had genuinely unsettled him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Black Zetsu was the shadow of Uchiha Madara, and Orochimaru still had lingering trauma from dealing with Madara.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Black Zetsu remained unbothered by Orochimaru's veiled threats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As long as I have these eyes, getting in and out of Konoha is nothing more than child's play.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No one can stop me—not even your so-called Yagami Takuya.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"His Mangekyō Sharingan has no power over me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kamui, Uchiha Obito's space-time ability, gave Black Zetsu absolute confidence.

I'm here to invite you to join Lord Madara's great plan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Zetsu spread his arms wide, his voice filled with a mix of excitement and resentment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This world is shrouded in darkness, plagued by greed, ambition, and endless war. Countless lives are lost in the flames of conflict.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I believe you should join us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Join you? Are you insane?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orochimaru wants one thing—immortality!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't care less about Infinite Tsukuyomi or any other nonsense. His only goal had remained unchanged from the start.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Life was too fragile, and he refused to succumb to death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shaking his head, Orochimaru decisively rejected Black Zetsu's invitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry, but I have no interest in your so-called Infinite Tsukuyomi plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Besides, your plan isn't going to work. Uchiha Madara's Rinnegan has already been taken.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Zetsu's expression darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The one who offered up those eyes, Nagato, has been moved to a secure location. Controlling him now? Nearly impossible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Five Kage Summit hadn't been made public, and very few people knew the details. Even with Black Zetsu's vast intelligence network, it would take time to piece everything together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Zetsu clenched his fists, his frustration barely contained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That idiot Nagato had justhanded overthe Rinnegan?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need every bit of information you have.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, retrieving the Rinnegan was the top priority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could steal it back quietly, he would. But if that failed, he'd have to resort to more drastic measures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like hell I'm telling you anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he finally had the upper hand, Orochimaru smirked confidently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as he was about to revel in his advantage, Black Zetsu's next words doused him in cold water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Orochimaru, don't get too comfortable. You should be asking yourself—what changes happened to your body while Madara had control over you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You must be curious about how I found you so easily.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did you really think Madara let you go without leaving something behind?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's not how Black Zetsu operated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter where Orochimaru ran, he was still within their grasp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he returned to Konoha, he wouldn't be safe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\".....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orochimaru's face darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't need Black Zetsu to spell it out—he had already suspected as much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since returning to Konoha, he'd been searching for whatever it was that Madara had left inside him, trying to find a way to remove it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a ticking time bomb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as it remained, Madara and Black Zetsu could come for him anytime and seize control again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For someone chasing immortality, Orochimaru had no intention of becoming anyone's puppet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice turned cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Konoha held a Five Kage Summit to discuss how to deal with Uchiha Madara.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But the other villages weren't interested in stopping him. Instead, they focused on the Rinnegan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the end, Iwagakure and Kumogakure took the Rinnegan in exchange for different forms of payment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>MMP!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Motherf—!!!)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Black Zetsu weren't trying to maintain his image as Madara's shadow, he would've lost it right then and there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theysoldthe Rinnegan?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you kidding me?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who the hellsellssomething like that?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As for anything else, I wouldn't know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But if you're planning to make a move, you'd better hurry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait too long, and who knows if those eyes will even be in one piece.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll be in touch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Zetsu didn't waste another word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Activating Kamui, he vanished from the lab, leaving Konoha behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, he needed to infiltrate Iwagakure and Kumogakure, gather intelligence, and find a way to steal the Rinnegan back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If all else failed, he'd have to go with his backup plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dammit!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even after Black Zetsu had left, his presence still lingered like a shadow in Orochimaru's mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His suspicions were confirmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Somethinghadbeen left inside his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At any moment, Black Zetsu could return and take control again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just look at Uchiha Obito—reduced to nothing more than a puppet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orochimaru refused to suffer the same fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>___________________________\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(P)(S): If you're interested, you can read the rest of the Chapter at Patreon com\u002F Emik01.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>DO NOT FORGET POWER STONE AND CHATTING\u003C\u002Fp>",1170,"2026-06-05T21:23:21.226Z",1,"novelbin.me","9c49886aa1a359268469061b8370bb9edecd7e31a0a2d90cf2034095ff18a418","naruto-i-traveled-with-a-max-level-account-chapter-1661","naruto-i-traveled-with-a-max-level-account-chapter-1659",2215,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fnaruto-i-traveled-with-a-max-level-account-cover.jpg"]
