"Congratulations, Madara-sama." Black Zetsu complimented.

Uchiha Madara waved his hand. Although he was suspicious of Black Zetsu, he was not sure yet.

"I will leave Konoha in a few days. By the way, I asked you to send someone to protect Uzumaki Nagato. Have you sent anyone?"

"Of course, I have let four White Zetsu attach to Uzumaki Nagato's parents respectively. In this way, even if there is danger, we can ensure that Uzumaki Nagato will not be in danger of life in the first place."

Uchiha Madara nodded slightly, "Okay, you can send another White Zetsu to Konoha. I will not give up my current identity for the time being. Let White Zetsu take over temporarily after I leave."

"Okay, Madara-sama."

…………

Three days later.

Outside Konoha Village

Uchiha Chiba looked at Uchiha Madara with some curiosity, "Teacher, what's the matter with you calling me here?"

"Nothing, I'm leaving today, so I want to tell you something." Then, Uchiha Madara waved his hand to the ground, and a White Zetsu emerged from the ground, "I don't need to introduce this to you, you know, after I leave, this White Zetsu will become my brother and temporarily replace my current identity. If you want to contact me, find him, or I will let White Zetsu inform you if I have anything."

Although he had doubts about both White Zetsu and Black Zetsu, White Zetsu was really useful, and now he didn't have anyone to use, even if he doubted him, he would not take action against either of them for the time being.

"Hello, Uchiha Chiba, please give me more advice in the future." White Zetsu raised his hand.

Uchiha Chiba nodded, then looked at Uchiha Madara, "I know, I told you yesterday, teacher, I hope you can think about it seriously."

Uchiha Chiba still hoped that Uchiha Madara could recognize the truth as soon as possible, so that he could get a powerful helper.

"I will. Okay, I'm leaving. If you have any problems in the future, just look for Bai Zetsu."

After the voice fell, Uchiha Madara turned around and left.

After Uchiha Madara could no longer be seen, Uchiha Chiba turned his head and looked at Bai Zetsu, "You should become Uchiha Izuna, and come back to Konoha with me later."

"By the way, do you have a name?"

Bai Zetsu shook his head, "No, we all call each other Bai Zetsu."

"That won't work. How about this, I will call you Uchiha Izuna when there are people around, and I will call you Awei when there are no people?"

"Awei? That's fine, I don't care about this." Awei nodded.

"Okay, since you agree, let's go back to Konoha."

…………

The next day, just when Uchiha Chiba was about to go to Tsunade to keep in touch, Xiao Hei appeared again.

"Chiba, Kakuzu asked me to give this to you." After saying that, Xiao Hei took out an envelope from a small bag he was carrying behind him.

"What is this?"

"I don't know. Kakuzu said you'll know when you see it."

Uchiha Chiba nodded. He saw Xiaohei's eager eyes when he opened the envelope just now.

"Go to Kakuzu for the money. He's a rich man now."

"Okay, I'm leaving now. Bye." Xiaohei certainly knew how rich Kakuzu was now.

After all, the matter of River Country had spread throughout the ninja world, and Xiaohei was the only person who knew about it besides Kakuzu and Uchiha Chiba.

Bang!

As a puff of smoke rose, Xiaohei disappeared from the spot.

When Xiaohei left, Uchiha Chiba also opened the envelope.

He took a brief look, and Kakuzu's meaning was very clear, that is, the laboratory and base had been built, and finally gave the address of a base.

"I didn't expect Kakuzu to be so quick, but that's good. When Orochimaru comes back, we can start studying natural energy."

Uchiha Chiba then thought of Orochimaru who was far away in the Land of Rivers, "I wonder if Orochimaru has found anything. I hope it won't be a wasted trip."

After saying that, the corner of his mouth rose.

The Land of Rivers.

Orochimaru looked at the Yamanaka clan member in front of him, "How is it, did you find anything?"

The Yamanaka clan member shook his head, "No, there are no clues left except the three bodies and the words carved on the wall."

Hearing this, Orochimaru was a little disappointed. He had high expectations when he came, but now he has nothing.

"Forget it, we have been investigating here for a few days. Since we can't find any clues, let's go back."

"Then the Hokage..."

Orochimaru grinned, "It's okay, I will tell the teacher about this."

"Okay, then I will notify them now."

Orochimaru nodded. "Go."

Two days later.

After Orochimaru reported the mission itinerary of River Country to the Third Generation, he went straight home.

However,When he got to the door, he found a piece of paper under the door.

Orochimaru was a little curious. Did anyone come to see him during his absence from Konoha?

Then he bent down and picked up the paper, and there was only one sentence on it.

‘See me when you return to Konoha—Uchiha Chiba’

Although Uchiha Chiba’s tone was not very polite, Orochimaru did not take it to heart. He guessed that Uchiha Chiba must have something urgent to ask him.

Evening.

Death Forest.

"Chiba-kun, what's the matter with you asking me to come to you?"

Orochimaru looked at Uchiha Chiba across from him and said, "I just returned to Konoha and you asked me to come to you. If there is nothing that interests me, I will be very unhappy."

"Don't worry, what I'm going to say this time will definitely make you happy," Uchiha Chiba continued, "Do you remember our previous agreement? I will build the base and laboratory, and then you will be responsible for studying natural energy and longevity."

"Chiba-kun means that the laboratory has been built?" Orochimaru said with a little shortness of breath.

Although he didn't know how much money was spent on building a laboratory and a base, it was definitely not a small amount.

He didn't know what the identity of the third partner was, and he could come up with so much money.

"That's right." Uchiha Chiba nodded slightly, then took out a note and handed it to Orochimaru, "This is the address of the laboratory, take a look."

Orochimaru took the note and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after looking at the address on it.

The address on the note is in the Land of Fire, and it is only more than 100 kilometers away from Konoha.

Fortunately, the laboratory is not far away, otherwise he would waste a lot of time running back and forth between the laboratory and Konoha.

"Chiba, now that the laboratory has been built, when can I meet our partner?"

Orochimaru looked up at Uchiha Chiba and said.

"Any time is fine, but I have to ask that person's opinion first. Then let's set a time for the three of us to meet."
