Summon the Villain: Marvel.

In the office of Cardo in the Land of Waves, the lights were dim and there was a depressing atmosphere all around. Orochimaru walked into the room, looked around, and finally fixed his eyes on the man standing in front of the desk.

Nathan Hawke stood there, wearing a black custom suit, tall and straight, exuding a cold and majestic aura. His eyes were deep and sharp, as if he could see through everything. When Orochimaru first met Nathan Hawke, he felt an invisible sense of oppression, which made him a little wary.

Orochimaru carefully looked at the man in front of him, and quickly judged and analyzed him in his heart. Nathan Hawke looked ordinary, but his sharp eyes revealed extraordinary wisdom and powerful strength. He stood there like an inviolable mountain, which made people feel awe.

"Are you Nathan Hawke?" Orochimaru asked coldly, with a hint of disdain and curiosity in his voice.

Nathan Hawke slowly raised his head, his eyes met with Orochimaru's, and a slight sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Exactly. Orochimaru, I have heard a lot about you."

Orochimaru felt the other party's powerful aura and knew that the man in front of him was no ordinary person. He swept his eyes over Nathan Hawke and found that the other party was calm and unhurried, with a kind of confidence in his eyes that he was in control of the overall situation.

"What is your purpose in wanting to see me?" Orochimaru asked calmly, already thinking of a countermeasure in his mind.

Nathan Hawke smiled faintly, his voice calm and firm: "I have a plan and I need your assistance. The knowledge and ability you possess are exactly what I need."

There was a glimmer of interest in Orochimaru's eyes, but he remained alert: "My assistance? Do you think I will help you easily?"

Nathan Hawke's smile deepened, and his eyes revealed a strong confidence: "You will, because we have common interests."

Orochimaru looked at Nathan Hawke quietly. He knew that this meeting would determine everything in the future. And he had to carefully weigh every option, because the man in front of him, Nathan Hawke, obviously had strength and wisdom that he could not underestimate.

Nathan Hawke slowly walked to the window, turned his back to Orochimaru, and looked out the window at the scenery outside the Land of Waves. His voice was calm and firm: "I know your plan, Orochimaru. You plan to destroy the peace of Konoha during the upcoming Chunin Exam."

Orochimaru's eyes became sharp, he kept his usual sneer and asked tentatively: "Oh? What do you know?"

Nathan Hawke turned around and looked directly at Orochimaru with a sharp gaze: "You planned to launch an attack during the Chunin Exams and use the turmoil inside and outside Konoha to achieve your own goals. Before that, your other goal was to kill the Fourth Kazekage Rasa."

Orochimaru's smile disappeared instantly, and a hint of surprise and vigilance flashed in his eyes. He raised his hands slightly, as if ready to attack at any time: "It seems that you are well-informed. But how do you know all this?"

Nathan Hawke approached the table unhurriedly, his tone still calm: "I have my own intelligence network, and this information is not difficult for me to obtain. Moreover, I know every step you take."

There was a hint of ruthlessness in Orochimaru's eyes. He slowly lowered his hands and the smile returned to his face again, but this time it was a little more cold: "So, what are you going to do? Stop me?"

Nathan Hawke shook his head and smiled slightly: “No, I’m not going to stop you. On the contrary, I have a proposal that will benefit both you and me.”

Orochimaru raised an eyebrow, a hint of curiosity and caution flashing in his eyes: "Oh? What's the proposal?"

Nathan Hawke tapped the table lightly, his voice low and powerful: "I can help you achieve your goal, and at the same time, you need to complete some tasks for me. In this way, we can both get what we want."

Orochimaru's eyes became deep, and he quickly weighed Nathan Hawke's proposal in his mind. He knew that Nathan Hawke's intelligence and strength were extraordinary, and if they could reach a cooperation, perhaps his plan would be more secure.

"What do you want?" Orochimaru asked coldly, with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.

Nathan Hawke's smile deepened, with a hint of mystery in his tone: "That depends on what you can offer, Orochimaru. As long as you can meet my conditions, our cooperation will be very pleasant."

Orochimaru smiled coldly, with a hint of madness and ambition in his eyes: "Well, Nathan Hawke, I am looking forward to seeing what kind of surprises you can bring."

As the two looked at each other, they seemed to have reached a tacit understanding, and each had a clear direction in their hearts.

Orochimaru smiled coldly, with a sly look in his eyes: "Nathan Hawke, since you know so much about my plan, I will not hide it. In fact, I have already arranged a meeting with the Fourth Kazekage Rasa at a secret location between the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Water."

Nathan Hawke raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of insight in his eyes: "Really? It seems that you have already set a trap and are ready to get rid of Luo Sha during the talks."

Orochimaru's smile became even more sinister: "That's right. I need to make sure everything is foolproof. And you are the sharp knife I need."

Nathan Hawke nodded, he understood Orochimaru's intention. This meeting was a trap set by Orochimaru, and he would be a key link in completing the assassination.

"What do you want me to do?" Nathan Hawke asked calmly, his tone full of confidence.

There was a hint of expectation in Orochimaru's eyes, and he said slowly: "I want you to take action during the meeting and make sure that Rasa has no chance of escape. I want to see your true strength."

Nathan Hawke thought calmly for a moment, then smiled slightly: "I understand. You want to obtain my combat intelligence and understand my true capabilities through this operation."

Orochimaru did not deny it. There was a hint of weirdness in his smile: "That's right. Only after I see your power with my own eyes can I feel at ease to cooperate with you."

Nathan Hawke nodded, with a sharp look in his eyes: "Okay, let's proceed according to your plan. I will let you see my true strength."

Orochimaru nodded in satisfaction, his eyes gleaming with excitement, "Very good, Nathan Hawke. I look forward to a very pleasant cooperation."

A week later, at a secret location between the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Water, the atmosphere was tense and strange. This was a barren sandy land surrounded by towering rock walls that provided a natural barrier for the talks and ensured the secrecy of both parties.

Orochimaru stood aside with Nathan Hawke, Doflamingo and Borsalino, who were wearing masks. They had a strong aura and their eyes were calm and sharp. Nathan Hawke's mask covered his expression, revealing only a pair of cold eyes, quietly observing everything around him.

Not far away, the Fourth Kazekage Rasa also arrived with his Anbu. Rasa was wearing a Kazekage robe and had a serious look on his face. His four Anbu members were agile and looked around vigilantly, ready to respond to any emergency at any time.

The two parties met in the middle of the sand, and there was an invisible tension in the air. Orochimaru showed a hint of sneer and spoke first: "Lord Kazekage, thank you for your invitation."

Luo Sha looked at Orochimaru coldly, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes: "Orochimaru, what is the purpose of your meeting this time? You should know that the relationship between Sunagakure and Konoha is already very tense."

Orochimaru smiled slightly, with a hint of weirdness in his tone: "Of course, I know this. However, I have some important information and plans that I want to share with you. This is related to the interests of both of us."

Luo Sha's eyes became sharp, and he looked at Orochimaru carefully: "Tell me about it."

Orochimaru nodded slowly, motioned Nathan Hawke and the others to step back slightly, and then continued: "Lord Kazekage, you should know that Konoha's current strength and threat are far beyond our imagination. If we can unite and fight against Konoha together, we will gain huge benefits."

Luo Sha snorted coldly, obviously not completely trusting Orochimaru's proposal: "Alliance? What specific plans do you have?"

There was a hint of coldness in Orochimaru's eyes, and he whispered: "During the upcoming Chunin Exam, we can join forces to launch an attack, taking advantage of Konoha's chaos and defeating their main force. Then, we can share the fruits of victory together."

Luo Sha frowned slightly and asked coldly: "Orochimaru, how many people can you send? Also, what is the specific plan to fight the enemy? What is your purpose? How much benefit can I get?"

Orochimaru smiled lightly, with a cunning look in his eyes: "Lord Kazekage, I have prepared the strongest Sound Ninja force, including elite ninjas including the Sound Five, which are enough to deal with any resistance from Konoha. Moreover, my allies will also provide strong support." He turned slightly and motioned to Nathan Hawke and Doflamingo who were standing not far away.

Nathan Hawke and Doflamingo stood there quietly, watching all this coldly. Nathan Hawke's eyes under the mask were cold and sharp, as if he was scrutinizing Rosa's every move.

Luo Sha's gaze lingered on them for a moment, clearly sensing the powerful aura emanating from them. He turned his gaze to Orochimaru again, with a hint of doubt in his tone: "You are indeed very strong, but I need a more detailed plan. What is your specific strategy against the enemy?"

Orochimaru nodded, his tone full of confidence: "Lord Kazekage, our plan is very simple. During the Chunin Exam, we will launch a surprise attack to destroy Konoha's defenses. My troops will specifically deal with Konoha's Jonin and Chunin to ensure that they cannot organize a counterattack in time. Your troops will be responsible for capturing the core area of ​​Konoha and controlling the Hokage Building and key facilities of the village."

Luo Sha's eyes became sharper, and he continued to ask: "What is your ultimate goal? What do you want to gain from this action?"

Orochimaru's smile became even colder, and there was a hint of madness in his eyes: "What I need are experimental materials and resources. Konoha's ninjas and their technology are very important to my research. And for you, Lord Kazekage, this will be a great opportunity to expand your power. We can divide up Konoha's resources, and you will gain more land and wealth, consolidating the position of Sunagakure."

Luo Sha pondered for a moment. He knew the risks of this action, but also the huge benefits. His eyes swept over Orochimaru and his allies again, and finally returned to Orochimaru: "Okay, I agree to cooperate. But I need more guarantees. You must ensure that the plan is foolproof."

Orochimaru nodded slightly and showed a satisfied smile: "Don't worry, Lord Kazekage. I have made full preparations. This operation will definitely succeed, and we will all get what we want."

After the conversation between the two ended, the tension in the air eased a little.
