Chapter 102: Bargaining
Orochimaru glanced at Lei Luo in surprise, as if he didn't expect that he would bring up Hanzo's name, and Lei Luo's reaction would be so flat.
"No, listening to Tsunade's description, the scale and intensity of that battle should be quite high, and there is definitely a real fire between Lei Luo and Hanzo, how can it ......?"
Although he felt strange in his heart, Orochimaru wisely did not ask.
"That's right, I found a place by chance......"
Orochimaru took a few minutes to speak, and Lei Luo gradually understood what the other party meant.
The source of the matter came from Qimu Shuomao, who was sitting in the country of rain a while ago.
Although this famous Konoha White Fang has sharp knife skills and amazing physical skills, in the process of fighting with Hanzo, he suffered a lot from Hanzo's poison technique, which caused Konoha to lose his troops.
Although Qimu Shuomao didn't say anything afterwards, anyone could perceive the boredom and grievances in his heart, after all, his sword skills were even higher than Hanzo, but he suffered from the slight trick of poison, and in the end he could only bow to the wind.
As a battlefield commander, Mito Menyan naturally saw all this in his eyes.
Considering that Hanzo's poison art not only has a suppressive effect on high-end combat power, but the low-level ninjas are even more sticky and die, the plan for Hanzo was quickly put on the agenda.
The sample of the poison was given to Tsunade, a master of medical ninjutsu, to study, but unfortunately he only got the result that "he could not make an antidote".
As for the reason for the failure, Tsunade gave an explanation: Hanzo's poison came from a special kind of sansho fish, and this kind of biological ninja world is rare, so a lot of past experience cannot be applied.
If you want to crack it hard, I'm afraid it will take at least several years.
It's hard not to be disappointed with this kind of result.
After all, at that time, Konoha's opponent was only the Land of Rain, and no one thought that the war could last that long.
But just as Mito Menyan was about to give up, Tsunade threw out another idea: if a living sample of this special sansho fish could be collected, the progress of the research might be greatly accelerated, and it was not impossible to shorten it from a few years to a few months.
The technical background of the Great Ninja Village is so unreasonable.
Mito Menyan was a snack about this, and quickly instructed Tsunade's request.
But the ninja world is so big, where do the Konoha ninjas go to find that special sansho fish that damn the hell?
However, Orochimaru's brain is relatively easy, and his thoughts are mainly focused on Hanzo, focusing his search on the territory of the Land of Rain.
Perhaps as fate would have it, Orochimaru quickly found a clue to the special Sansho fish.
"You're saying that the small village with several large pepperfish is probably hiding a secret of semi-hidden drugs?" Lei Luo rubbed his chin in his hand and looked at Orochimaru thoughtfully.
"Now that the clue has been found, and you've been dragging it out until now, the defenses there must be sufficient, right?"
Orochimaru nodded helplessly, "At least there are hundreds of rain ninjas stationed there for a long time, I can't take it down alone, and ......"
"I've seen Hanzo appear there."
Lei Luo was a little curious this time: "There are hundreds of ninjas, which means that there must be sentient ninjas there, so ...... How did you manage to escape under Hanzo's hands? ”
Orochimaru glanced at Lei Luo lightly, and said nonchalantly: "Some of my ninjutsu can shield the prying eyes of the ninja, so Hanzo didn't find me." ”
Lei Luo nodded, kind of accepting the explanation.
But then, Lei Luo raised another question: "Since you have already discovered that place, why don't you react to the top and ask for more manpower?" ”
"You've got a lot of questions." Orochimaru waved his hand a little impatiently, but still patiently explained: "When I found there, it happened that Hagi Shuo Shigeru was transferred, and at that time the new top master was vacant, and we were in a strategic defensive state. ”
"In that case, naturally I can't deploy too many people to attack the well-defended rain ninja stronghold, so I didn't rush to report."
"Now that you're here, instead of looking for a bunch of unreliable people, it's better to directly choose the most powerful combat power and complete the goal in one fell swoop."
Lei Luo was indifferent to Orochimaru's compliment, and just sighed knowingly: "You want to take the credit alone...... Orochimaru, do you think I'm good at it? ”
"If you're only paid the ones mentioned earlier, then go elsewhere."
After a few words, Lei Luo judged the purpose of Orochimaru.
At present, Orochimaru should have only called himself and did not involve anyone else.
And if Lei Luo really agrees to come down and assist Orochimaru to complete the task, then the focus will only be on "assisting" and "helping", that is to say, the person who "leads" the completion of this task is Orochimaru, not Lei Luo.
If it really comes to the step of rewarding meritorious deeds, there is an essential difference in this, even if Lei Luo can get a lot of benefits, it is definitely not much, at least it is not worthy of his "value".
For Lei Luo, this is equivalent to buying and selling at a loss, and the risk is completely disproportionate to the return.
After a period of sealing guidance, the scrolls don't need to be provided by your Orochimaru, just such a few conditions, you want me to fight with hundreds of rain ninjas, as well as Hanzo who may appear there?
You're not living in a dream.
Orochimaru seemed to have expected it, and seeing that Lei Luo's face was wrong, he quickly smiled and explained: "Don't be in a hurry to refuse, Lei Luo, the reward I can give is naturally not just what I said before." ”
"So be it...... I know you like to learn ninjutsu, and whatever ninjutsu you want, you can teach it to you as long as I have it. ”
In order to achieve the goal, Orochimaru can be regarded as fighting.
Hanzo is obviously not an enemy that can be dealt with in the short term, and it is foreseeable that in the future, Konoha ninjas will inevitably deal with each other, and it is unknown how many people will die under Hanzo's poison art.
Although Orochimaru didn't care much about the lives of unrelated people, he also knew that if he could participate in the process of making the antidote and provide great help, then his Orochimaru's prestige would definitely increase greatly, and he would be closer to the throne of the Hokage.
For Orochimaru at this time, becoming the Hokage is still his biggest dream, and all plans are basically implemented around this dream.
Lei Luo didn't understand Orochimaru's inner thoughts, and he wasn't interested in understanding it, his attention at this time was all focused on the "price" offered by Orochimaru.
"Is it okay to do any ninjutsu...... Lei Luo pondered for a moment, and said a few ninjutsu that he wanted the most at the moment, all of which were forbidden techniques listed in the Book of Seals.
Orochimaru was secretly shocked by Lei Luo's "insight", but thinking that these might be what Danzang told him, he couldn't help but scold the old guy in his heart.
Lei Luo looked obviously "knowledgeable", but Orochimaru couldn't fool him with some "stall goods".
Seeing Lei Luo staring at himself intently, Orochimaru had no choice but to tell the truth:
"I don't have the art of spiritualization, but I can introduce you to someone who understands this technique."
"I know how to reincarnate in the soil, but don't blame me for not reminding you in advance: this technique is not perfect at the moment, and the filthy earth body that is recruited does not have the slightest consciousness, and its strength is less than one-tenth of what it was before death."
"Eight Gate Dunjia? What do you want that kind of technique for? ”
Lei Luo shook his head impatiently, "Why are you asking so much?" You just say if you have it or not. ”
