"It seems the extermination of the Uchiha clan is not far off!" Orochimaru muttered to himself after reading the report sent by his shadow clone, while deep within the Beidi Building.
Although there was no unusual activity from the Akatsuki, even if there were, Pain and Obito would be the ones handling it. He had not yet earned the organization's trust, and furthermore, since this matter involved Konoha, they were likely uncertain whether Orochimaru still maintained ties with the village. However, being left out of the loop did not mean Orochimaru could not get any information at all. Merely from the subtle movements within the organization, combined with the timeline he knew so well, it was not hard to guess what they were up to.
"Shall I get involved? After all, the Sharingan is well worth studying!" Orochimaru licked his lips. During the Uchiha clan massacre, Danzo and Obito had undoubtedly profited immensely. Not to mention Obito's wall of Sharingan eyes, even Danzo's arm studded with Sharingan eyes made one exclaim in admiration. Both parties had been deeply involved; Obito walked away with a wall full of Sharingan eyes and Ninjutsu scrolls, while Danzo's harvest was by no means small either. Leaving aside the Sharingan, the wealth accumulated by the Uchiha over all these years was enough to keep that old scoundrel Danzo stuffed for a lifetime!
