"Not long now," Obito whispered with a confident smile.
The creaking sound of the door opening broke the silence of the room. Doctor Klezy and Viona exchanged glances for a moment, reassuring each other that they needed to move quickly. Without wasting any time, they ran as fast as they could through the narrow hallway towards the exit. Their heavy breaths echoed down the corridor, creating a tense atmosphere that was only worsened by the fear of being pursued.
From the shadows in the corner of the room, the sharp-eyed Itachi observed every movement. Itachi's calculating gaze quickly realized what was happening. In a low but alert tone, Itachi then informed the others.
"They're trying to escape," Itachi said coldly. His eyes never left the direction of Doctor Klezy and Viona as they attempted to flee.
Orochimaru immediately responded, his body moving swiftly towards the hidden corridor behind the large wall. Kisame, with Samehada firmly in his grip, slammed into the wall with brutal force. Cracks spread, and moments later, the wall collapsed, opening a path to the corridor where the traces of Doctor Klezy and Viona began to fade.
"We need to move quickly," Orochimaru said with an intense gaze. But before they could proceed, Kakuzu glanced towards the secret room previously occupied by Doctor Klezy.
"I want to see if there's anything valuable in there," Kakuzu muttered, his voice hoarse yet filled with a desire to profit from every situation.
Orochimaru looked at Kakuzu for a moment, considering the option. "Alright, Kakuzu. You, Kabuto, and Obito go check that room. I, Itachi, and Kisame will chase them." Orochimaru's tone left no room for debate.
Kakuzu nodded. "Alright." With a swift motion, Kakuzu turned around, followed by Kabuto and Obito. They sneaked into the secret room, stepping carefully, as if every second lost was an opportunity missed.
Meanwhile, Orochimaru, Kisame, and Itachi ran down the long, dark corridor, their footsteps nearly silent amidst the shadows enveloping the place. The atmosphere grew tenser, the air filled with an invisible threat. In the distance, the hurried footsteps of Doctor Klezy and Viona could be faintly heard.
"Don't let them escape," Orochimaru hissed venomously, a strange smile curving on his face. They all knew that once Doctor Klezy and Viona managed to get out of this labyrinth, everything would become much more difficult.
After Kakuzu, Kabuto, and Obito arrived at the secret room, a suffocating atmosphere immediately surrounded them. The walls of the room were made of cold, rusty metal, reflecting a little light from the dim flickering bulbs. The air felt dry, with a faint aroma of chemicals hanging in the air.
The room was filled with various strange items. Small glass tubes with unknown liquids were neatly lined up on shelves, bizarre scientific equipment was scattered across long tables, and in the corner of the room, a pile of large suitcases appeared to be overflowing.
Kakuzu then immediately fixated on the suitcases.
"Millions Forty?!" Kakuzu exclaimed with delight, his eyes gleaming like someone who had just discovered treasure.
"Millions! This... is very satisfying," Kakuzu said with a quiet chuckle, his expression shifting like a wolf eyeing its prey.
On the other hand, Kabuto seemed more interested in the small tubes filled with mysterious liquids.
"Interesting... Is this the result of genetic experiments? Hmm, there might be certain uses for the body that I can perfect." Kabuto stroked his chin, his eyes sparkling with curiosity as he examined the tubes more closely.
Meanwhile, Obito stood slightly apart, skeptically observing the scattered notes on the table. Thick books filled with handwritten scribbles were piled next to long-neglected experimental tools.
