Chapter 198: Ch.198 Upper Moon One
Land of Lightning.
Kimimaro, weary from his travels, was trudging through the endless snowy mountains.
In such harsh conditions, even shinobi found it difficult to survive, which made this area, stretching for miles, rarely visited by anyone.
Trailing ten miles behind Kimimaro, Kabuto Yakushi kept a vigilant watch on his surroundings.
He knew more about the Akatsuki than most.
After all, he was Orochimaru's personal assistant, and Orochimaru had once been a member of the Akatsuki, having seen the leader with the "Sage Eyes."
Pulling his robe tighter around himself, Kabuto thought, "What kind of test would the Akatsuki arrange in such a place?"
He didn't think it strange that the Akatsuki had chosen such a desolate location for their test.
On the contrary, knowing the terrifying nature of the Akatsuki, he subconsciously believed that their test should be something nearly impossible or beyond comprehension.
He adjusted his glasses and thought, "I really hope the examiner isn't Uchiha Itachi!"
If there was one person in the Akatsuki he feared most, it was undoubtedly Uchiha Itachi.
