Naruto: The Primal Hyuga Pierces the Shinobi World

Their understanding of the Land of Rain was not as deep as they had imagined.

"Has the enemy noticed?"

"Hmm...who knows?"

"However, we must be prepared for the possibility that we have already been discovered."

"Do not split up."

Jiraiya's original intention was for everyone to split into groups after entering the Land of Rain in order to expand the search area.

But now it seems that this plan is not going to work.

If their actions are being carried out under the watchful eyes of the enemy, they must unite and maximize their team's strength.

Since we're already on someone else's turf, we need to be careful not to get picked off one by one.

"Such a wide-range sensory ninjutsu... just who is this person?"

Could it be Hanzo the Salamander?

Looking up at the gloomy sky, Jiraiya couldn't help but mutter to himself.

In his mind, the only person in the Land of Rain with such strength was Hanzo the Salamander.

After all, he was a powerful ninja who had defeated the legendary Sannin of Konoha and was known as a demigod.

Knowing the answer, Shinichi Hyuga didn't reply, but silently distributed his Flying Thunder God kunai to the rest of the team.

Orochimaru did not bring his subordinates with him this time when he cooperated with them. In Orochimaru's view, even if his two subordinates came, they would not be of much help and might even be a hindrance.

Rather than having them follow me, it would be better to let them stay in the lab and continue their unfinished experiments that require close monitoring.

After gazing outside the city for a long time, Shinichi Hyuga could not find any trace of Nagato.

Realizing that their group might have been discovered by the enemy, Jiraiya and the others were no longer as relaxed as before.

"Let's go. Whether we've been discovered or not, we still need to go into the city to investigate."

"First, capture a few Rain Ninja alive to gather some basic information about the Land of Rain."

Jiraiya, with his extensive research experience, made a decision immediately.

No one from Shinichi and the others spoke up in rebuttal. Orochimaru, however, silently reached out to stop Jiraiya and said in a deep voice:

"You're still the same as before, so impulsive and clumsy, you haven't improved at all."

"Going in directly to investigate is still too dangerous. Let's... do a simple probe first!"

As he spoke, Orochimaru formed hand seals, and a coffin slowly rose from the sea and stood upright in front of everyone.

As the coffin lid opened, the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, appeared before everyone.

Orochimaru formed a hand seal and silently crouched down. At the same time, Tobirama Senju, whose eyes had been lifeless, suddenly had a glint of light in his eyes, and his pupils showed a hint of wisdom.

"Hehehehe..."

Orochimaru let out a series of cryptic chuckles, seemingly pleased with the successful execution of his technique.

Ignoring the astonishment, disgust, and curiosity of the people around him, he controlled Tobirama Senju to rush rapidly towards the distant town. In a short while, Tobirama Senju disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Manipulating the dead with ninjutsu... You really have a twisted sense of humor, Orochimaru."

Jiraiya felt a wave of disdain upon seeing his former friend's secret technique.

"It's so convenient!"

On the contrary, Shinichi didn't care at all about the "good" or "bad" of the technique itself, only about its practicality. When he saw Orochimaru controlling Tobirama to enter the city to investigate, he couldn't help but give a light praise.

Unlike Jiraiya's reckless infiltration of the Land of Rain, Orochimaru was much more cautious in gathering intelligence, which explains why he survived into the "non-flammable" episodes.

...

Inside an iron tower in the city.

As if sensing something, Nagato, who was in the darkness, suddenly widened his eyes.

By the window, Obito Uchiha sat leaning against the window frame, looking at the heavy rain outside, and unconsciously thought of Rin.

Even after many years, Obito Uchiha still often thinks of Rin. His longing is like a tide, and each time it surges back, it strengthens his eye power.

Obito remembered that on the day Rin was killed by Kakashi, it was raining just as heavily as it was now. The only difference was that Rin died in Kirigakure, not in the Land of Rain.

Inside the room, Nagato coughed softly. Konan, who had been watching Obito Uchiha warily beside him, turned around with concern upon hearing Nagato's cough and asked with concern:

"Nagato? How are you?"

Since Yahiko's death, Nagato's body had become increasingly weak after activating the Gedo Mazo. Controlling the Six Paths of Pain required powerful chakra, and the black rods inside his body could indeed help him better conduct chakra, but the extent of the external injuries was constantly draining Nagato's life force.

Nagato was originally from the Uzumaki clan. Normally, people his age should be strong and healthy, but at this time Nagato was thin and looked like skin and bones.

His cough was not due to a cold, but rather because he was physically weak.

"There is an intruder."

After coughing for a while, Nagato finally caught his breath and then said in a deep voice. His words made Konan freeze in place, and even Obito Uchiha, who was sitting on the windowsill reminiscing about the past, froze, a look of surprise and seriousness flashing in the eye exposed outside his mask.

"Intruder?!"

"I'll deal with it."

After a brief moment of surprise, Xiao Nan immediately spoke up, saying that she had actually dealt with similar situations many times before.

Since they killed Hanzo the Salamander and seized power in the Land of Rain, they have imposed a complete blockade on the country. Over the years, many "foreigners" have secretly entered the Land of Rain, but they have all been killed.

However, before Konan could get up to leave, Nagato immediately stopped her:

"No, Xiao Nan, you stay here."

"Pain is already on his way to intercept them. This intruder... is very strong!"

Nagato's White Tiger Rain Technique enveloped the entire Amegakure. With this technique, he could not only sense the exact number of intruders, but also the intensity of their chakra.

Compared to the chakra reactions of previous invaders, the chakra of these invaders was terrifyingly strong. One of them, in his sensory ninjutsu, was even like the sun blazing down on the sky, stronger than his own chakra reaction.

While strong chakra doesn't necessarily mean a ninja is strong, strong ninjas often have strong chakra reactions. Nagato sensed something unusual about these invaders and didn't want Konan to take the risk.

"Oh?"

"A powerful intruder?"

Just as Nagato and Konan were talking, Obito Uchiha, who was not far away, suddenly interjected with great interest.

Before Nagato and Konan could say anything more, Obito Uchiha's figure slowly sank into the ground and disappeared without a trace.

Nagato and Konan seemed to have long been accustomed to Madara Uchiha's elusive nature. After exchanging a glance, Konan asked worriedly, "What is that guy going to do?"

Konan and Nagato didn't completely trust Madara Uchiha. After Yahiko's death, the only people they trusted in the world were each other.

"Humph..."

"It's nothing more than exploring the power of the Six Paths of Pain."

Nagato gave a soft hum, closed his eyes, and began to concentrate.

Their relationship with "Uchiha Madara" was one of mutual exploitation and cooperation. Uchiha Obito was wary of them, and they were equally wary of Uchiha Obito.

Both sides have a certain understanding of each other's capabilities, although this understanding is not comprehensive.

Obito Uchiha wasn't interested in any of those damned invaders; he was interested in the Six Paths of Pain, who was about to make his move.

...

"Whoosh-"

Tobirama Senju, summoned by Orochimaru using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, was speeding across the sea. Just as he was about to enter the town of Ame-man Village, a huge shadow suddenly appeared in the sky and enveloped him.

Looking up, Tobirama Senju saw a giant green bird fly overhead, and at the same time, countless "bird eggs" fell rapidly from above as the bird left.

A moment later, the bird's egg fell to the ground.

"Boom boom boom!!!!"

An explosion rang out on the sea, and the explosion and flames instantly engulfed Tobirama Senju.

Above the giant bird's head, the Animal Path controlled by Nagato didn't even look at its "masterpiece," instead maneuvering the summoned beast to fly towards the distant sea.

After a long while, the sea returned to calm, and the mutilated Tobirama Senju floated on the surface of the sea, his body slowly repairing itself.

“You came so quickly!”

"Hehehe, was that person just now... the leader of Akatsuki?"

Tobirama Senju glanced in the direction the Animal Path had left and murmured a soft "life".

However, the voice was deep and hoarse, which was exactly Orochimaru's voice!

The Animal Path, riding a giant bird, swept over Tobirama Senju's head and shattered Tobirama's impure body with just a "bird egg" dropped by a summoning beast.

Although Tobirama Senju, controlled by Orochimaru, was unable to intercept the enemy, the intelligence about the enemy's attack was successfully received.

The open sea.
