Chapter 69: Undercurrent
Throwing a marble from flat ground, even if it hits a small bump, it rolls in a very different direction from its destination.
Yagami would not have imagined that after Yakushidou lost the news, the cautious Orochimaru went to see the root buried deep in the ground of Konoha - Danzo.
Danzo stood on a high platform of a large marble, about 10 cubic meters in a standard square, with runes inscribed on it, and candles lit at the corners of the platform.
Orochimaru stopped one step in front of the high platform and looked directly at the old man standing on the high platform with his back straight.
"You shouldn't have come here, Orochimaru. As an S-level rebel ninja in Konoha who secretly infiltrated Konoha to destroy the middle ninja exam and assassinate the Konoha ninja, aren't you afraid that the old man will arrest you?"
"No, you won't. ”
"Oh?"
"Because you need me!"
Orochimaru's face was flat, and he didn't take the members of the surrounding roots into his eyes at all. The mocking smile on his lips made the members of Root even more angry.
"I'm going to carry out a plan, and that plan may be your only chance to sit on the Hokage's throne. ”
The one-eyed Danzang on the high platform closed after hearing this, and it took a while to slowly open it.
"What's the plan?"
"Konoha Collapse Plan. As the name suggests, the purpose of this plan is to bring Konoha to the ground, and the biggest goal is to assassinate the three Hokages. ”
"Once the three generations are dead, the position of Hokage will not be out of reach for you. ”
Danzou knew that Orochimaru was right, the contradiction between him and the three generations was a fundamental contradiction of political tendencies, and as long as the three generations survived for one day, he would try his best to prevent Danzo, who was contrary to his own ideas, from becoming the Hokage.
"I wasn't going to let you know, but now there's a problem with one of my right-hand men. Orochimaru said, smiling, "You know him too, Yakushi Dou." ”
"Oh, the pharmacist. What happened to him?" asked Danzang curiously. For the pocket he was impressed.
"It's been five days since I lost his news," and after saying that, Orochimaru looked directly into Danzo's eyes.
"We didn't deal with him. And my spy in the shadows didn't send out any news that Dou had been assassinated or arrested in the shadows. ”
"But ......"
"But what?"
"You should have received the news from Dou too. Before the middle ninja exam, Jiraiya and Tsunade had secretly returned to the ninja village. ”
"You're saying they could have done it?"
"Probably, after all, there aren't many people who can make the bag disappear quietly. ”
As if he was tired of standing, Tuan Zang slowly walked down the high platform. "Once your plan begins, I promise that the ninja of the root will not act. ”
"That's enough. Orochimaru chuckled, "But I'm actually here to borrow something this time." ”
"What's that?"
"Writing wheels. ”
Konoha, a secluded lakeside courtyard. The dragonfly twirled lightly on the surface of the lake, spun in a circle, and swept past Tsunade's eyes. Tsunade lay lazily on the table, the wine glass in his hand spinning with his fingers unfocused.
Click, click......
Hearing the familiar sound of clogs, Tsunade turned his head.
"Zilaiya, what did the old man say. ”
Jiraiya walked over to the stone bench and sat down, and drank a glass of wine before returning to Tsunade's words.
The old man agreed to the boy's plan. It's very resolute. ”
"Heh, he's still the same as before, once he offends Ninja Village, he ......"
"What about you, will you be able to do it then?"
"I'll do my best, after all, he's Orochimaru. If you keep your hands, you might die if you're not careful. ”
"yes......"
Tsunade's voice was small, and she turned her head to look at the calm water.
"I've been thinking about it all this time...... Obviously, we are the only ones who can prevent Orochimaru from going down that path. At that time, why didn't you care more about him?"
"Hey, who knows. Fate is inherently unpredictable. ”
………………
On the night of the full moon, the abode of the sand ninja.
Maki is the leader of my Airo trio and the main person in charge of the Konoha Collapse Plan Sha Yin Fang. At this time, he was looking at the young man in front of him with a dissatisfied expression.
"I thought it would be a pocket. But I didn't expect Orochimaru to send a little ghost like you. ”
"Don't judge others by their appearance. As far as I know, the sandstorm in your village is still the same age as me. ”
"How can a guy like you compare to me. With a disdainful smile, Markey said.
Yamanaka Koji ignored Maki, who was not easy to get along with in front of him, with an indifferent expression on his face.
"Orochimaru-sama has set a date for the operation, let me pass it on to you. ”
The moonlight bliest, which was hiding somewhere, listened intently.
"Sure enough, it's a little ghost, and I haven't found a mouse eavesdropping yet. ”
Moonlight Blast's heart was startled, and he quickly left the place where he had been hiding.
The three kunai shots came, and he dodged a light back flip, half-kneeling on the ground, the short knife out of the sheath, and the moonlight blast looked at the Shangnin who was blocking in front of him with a solemn face.
Dance of the Three Days and Moon!
In the bright moonlight, the moonlight blast split into three and slashed towards Maki at the same time.
Markey knew he couldn't dodge this delicate Wood Blade technique, but he didn't need to.
The sharp knife slashed at Markey's shoulder only a little, like a hard stone. Maki sneered and gripped the short knife on his shoulder, enjoying the surprised expression of the ninja in front of him.
"At such a young age, I mastered this delicate knife technique. Konoha is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. ”
"But Konoha will collapse soon, and it will be our Sand Hidden Village in its place!"
The sharp wind blade cut off the neck of the moonlight blast, and the blood covered the moonlight like a black curtain.
"Tsk, that's unprofessional. In the shadows, Yamanaka Koji scoffed.
"So much blood will cause trouble for the aftermath. ”
Markey snorted coldly and didn't respond.
"By the way, Konoha has a family of inuzuka who specialize in keeping ninja dogs, and they are very sensitive to the smell of blood. ”
"So you'd better get rid of that blood as soon as possible. ”
Yamanaka Koji took one last look at the dead moonlight blast, blood gushing from his neck.
As he saw it from a book.
The blood in the moonlight is black......
