Chapter 139: The Snake Shadow is Heavy
In the dimly lit room, there were occasional mournful howls and muffled gasps.
"Orochimaru-sama, you might as well take some more medicine. This will relieve your physical pain, which is not ideal for this body to blend in. ”
Yakushidou stood beside the bedside and controlled the instrument, and at the same time said to Orochimaru, who was lying on the bed.
"Hey, hey, no, the pain will keep me awake, and it will make me crave Sasuke's body even more. Compared to these pains, I need Sasuke to come to me now. ”
Orochimaru, who was covered in bandages, didn't care about the pain in his body, and said with a hideous smile.
"However, Orochimaru-sama, I'm afraid your current body is not suitable for going deeper into Konoha anymore. ”
The pharmacist sorted out the things on the table in an orderly manner, calmly analyzing the pros and cons of things. However, Orochimaru didn't seem to take this matter to heart.
"Hmph, it's not easy to let Konoha take care of himself. With a little bit of manipulation, the situation can naturally turn in our favour. Konoha itself is very empty now, let's add another fire here......"
Speaking of this, Orochimaru laughed again, but the pain in his body made him cough again.
Dou hurriedly came over and used his medical ninjutsu to stabilize Orochimaru's situation, while continuing to ask questions.
"But even so, the high-end combat power of Konoha will not easily move, and it is still difficult for us to take Sasuke away from Konoha. Before, you still suffered a lot of losses in the most powerful state, isn't it even more difficult now? ”
"Hehe, the previous Sasuke was only one of my candidates, and he wasn't qualified enough for me to take him. But now Sasuke, the hatred in his heart has qualified him to be my vessel. ”
Orochimaru, who had stabilized, said with satisfaction, obviously very satisfied with the current Sasuke.
"Again, how do we bring Sasuke out. ”
The guy on the side asked unwillingly.
"Sasuke, he doesn't need us to force him out, he will take the initiative to come over himself. ”
"Active?"
Dou looked at Orochimaru in disbelief, and Orochimaru turned his head, his eyes peeking through the gap in the bandage, and stared at Dou tightly, and he only spoke again when he looked at Dou almost hairy.
"Dou, have you ever played shogi?"
"Shogi?"
I don't understand why Orochimaru would suddenly talk about this.
"The way to check the opponent's jade general is not to use your own jade general to fight the opponent to the death. Sometimes even a small pawn can make an unexpected difference. All I have to do now is send a few inconsequential pawns to Konoha and take a few gentle steps. Then Sasuke would naturally throw himself into my arms. ”
"Oh, then I'd like to hear who the minions you plan to send are. ”
Dou was obviously intrigued by Orochimaru's words, pushed his glasses and asked curiously.
"These little pawns are Tayuya, and they are close to the four of them. ”
Orochimaru stuck out his tongue and was about to lick his lips, but what he touched was a bandage, so he had to shake it twice outside and then withdraw it from his mouth.
"It turned out to be the four of them, and these four children are indeed good candidates. It's just that you sent them on such a dangerous mission like this, which is a bit of a death for them. Don't forget, there's also our good friend Yotsuki Qingyang on the outskirts of Konoha yet. That's an unpredictable guy, and it's theoretically possible for him to appear anywhere, so let's see if we need to take special care of him. ”
"The Moon and the Sunshine ......"
Hearing this name, Orochimaru was simply itching at the root of his teeth. If it weren't for the variable of Qingyang this time, he wouldn't have been so embarrassed and ended up in the current situation.
"How could I forget this guy? Hmph, I had a special plan for him this time. Wait, I'll make him look good!"
Orochimaru said angrily, while cursing Qingyang in his heart.
......
A few days later, there were multiple clashes on the border of the Fire Nation, killing and wounding ninjas and civilians as many as nearly 100 people. In the follow-up investigation, it was found that the murderers were suspected to be Iwa Shinobi and Yun Shinobi. The top management of Konoha attached great importance to this matter, and held a high-level meeting that night.
"Okay, let's talk about it, about the suspected attack of Iwa Shinobi and Cloud Shinobi. ”
Tsunade Dama Jindao sat on the main seat, looking at the high-level officials with a solemn expression.
"Is the aftermath of that incident finally appearing some time ago? Even if we have regained our balance with the fastest movements, Iwa Shinobi and Yun Shinobi want to take some advantage from us. ”
Zhuan Xiaochun said in an unhappy tone, obviously very angry that this happened.
"It's a bit too early to draw such a conclusion, after all, this happened a little too suddenly, without any warning in advance, which has to make people suspect that it is a conspiracy of some ill-intentioned people, such as Orochimaru, who is not dead with a thief's heart. ”
Mito Menyan was still calmly analyzing, and subconsciously told him that this matter was not so simple.
"Yes, we can't ignore the small things hidden in the shadows, but we can't take those big countries lightly. Especially at this critical juncture, we have to be even more vigilant. ”
Tuanzang's eyelids drooped and he said without a trace of emotion. After Tsunade succeeded him, due to the mediation of Menyan and Koharu, the roots of the group were about to be reorganized, so now he can be described as proud.
That being said, we can't be reckless. I think it's better to get in touch with the Iwakuin and Yunyin side first, and it's best to settle everything by means of diplomatic negotiations. Otherwise, if you don't get it right, it's another ninja war. ”
Menyan's words can be described as old-fashioned, which was also recognized by others present. These people here, except for the slightly younger Shikaku, are ninjas who have experienced more than one ninja war, and they all have a deep understanding of the destructive power of war.
"However, we must also be prepared for the possibility that Iwakuin and Yunyin may unilaterally start a war!, so I still suggest that we need to deploy enough troops on the border!"
Danzang stubbornly insisted on his own ideas. And Tsunade, who sat at the top, didn't say anything except at the beginning.
When Qingyang questioned her with wild words, it was actually not unreasonable. Despite her strength, she cannot erase her weakness in terms of governing experience. After all, the highest position she held in her youth was only that of wartime Commander and Minister of Medical Affairs, and in many cases she was more of a symbolic symbol of force deterrence. In terms of actual power, it may be similar to the current sunny sun. What's more, even that was more than a decade ago. So here she chose to talk less, listen more and watch more, and learn from the experience of dealing with things and problems from the senior executives here.
The two sides argued like this, and Tsunade thought about it for a long time. In the end, she simply made a decision.
"Okay, since that's the case, let's compromise the plan, and send people to contact the high-level of the two villages while arranging troop arrangements on the border!"
Seeing that Tsunade had decided, all the higher-ups stopped expressing their opinions. At this time, Menyan spoke again.
"Now that we've decided on this plan, shouldn't we also decide on the personnel arrangements? Who will be sent to make contact with the high-level of the two villages, and who will be sent to garrison the border?"
"Well, this is a question that should be seriously considered, if the arrangement is wrong, it is easy to make a big mistake. But I'd like to hear from the advisors first. ”
Tsunade said thoughtfully, looking at them again. Essentially, she wasn't very familiar with the ninjas in the village right now, so she still chose to listen to the advisor first.
"I nominate two generals who will lead the troops stationed here. One is Kakashi Kakashi, the Kamishinobi banner, who is suitable for being stationed in the direction of the Land of the Earth, and the other is Kamitoki Maitkai, who is suitable for being stationed in the direction of the Land of Thunder. These two are powerful ninjas who have been in the upper ninja position for many years. Kakashi Kami Shinobi is experienced and thoughtful, while Maitkai Shinobi is simple-minded and clear-minded. So I think it's a good fit for both of them. ”
Tuan Zang said slowly, and everyone on the side couldn't stop nodding, thinking that what he said this time was very fair.
"There should be no controversy about this arrangement, so who should be sent to diplomatic negotiations?"
Tsunade was also satisfied with the two candidates recommended by Danzo, and continued to ask.
"Well, in terms of Iwain, I personally think it's more appropriate to send the three Shinobi of the contemporary Pig Deer Butterfly. The cooperation between these three shinobi is seamless, and Shikahisa Shangnin's mind is also extremely clear. They should be able to solve the problem in the best possible way, and at the same time, their personal safety will not be too threatened. ”
Danzou said this, looking at Nara Shikaku, who was sitting at the bottom. And Lu Jiu was also stunned, he didn't expect Tuan Zang to order his own general.
"This ...... I myself have no opinion. ”
Lu Jiu said this, and Tsunade didn't say anything more. After she returned to Konoha, she had the most contact with Lujiu due to her work. He has a lot of trust in Lu Jiu's ability.
"As for the final person who needs to be sent to Yun Yin......
When talking about the last candidate, Tuan Zang suddenly interrupted, subconsciously looked at his arm, and then made up his mind to speak.
"I recommend the special shinobi...... The moon is sunny. ”
