Chapter 195: Edge
Now listening to Tuan Zang's story, Lei Luo is keenly aware that perhaps what caused the destruction of the country of the vortex was not some vague so-called "various races" and "the target of everyone".
The biggest possibility is that this time in the Fog Hidden Village, it seems that it is a long-planned war operation, and the time should also be the period of the Second Ninja World War, which is now in full swing.
Thoughts crossed his mind in an instant, and Lei Luo asked quietly while following Tuan Zang forward, passing by Gennin who were standing respectfully on both sides of the road:
"If I'm not mistaken, the ninja village of Vortex Village seems to be an ally of our Konoha team, right?"
"That's right." Nodding, Tuan Zang's face was a little gloomy, and his tone was slightly heavier:
"The friendship between the Uzumaki clan and the Senju clan was passed down from the Warring States period, and this relationship was still maintained until the first Hokage founded Konoha."
"The country of the vortex, the village of the vortex, and even the Uzumaki clan have always been our hardcore allies in Konoha."
"Now that the allies are in trouble, we Konoha should definitely not sit idly by, just ......"
Tuan Zang's words suddenly came to a halt, Lei Luo subconsciously glanced at the other party, and found that the old guy's expression was unusually a little embarrassed, his lips moved slightly, but he did not continue to make a sound.
But halfway through the words is not a good habit, Lei Luo listened to it with relish at this time, but he didn't want the other party to stop like this, so he decisively asked:
"Just what?"
Taking a deep breath, Tuan Zang pondered for a long time before continuing: "It's just that our Konoha is now at war with Yanyin Village, Yuyin Village, and Fengyin Village at the same time, and we really can't draw too many troops to support our allies. ”
When he said this, Tuan Zang was ashamed, even the hand holding the crutches unconsciously tightened, obviously his mind was not calm.
Lei Luo observed Tuanzang's expression and saw that the other party didn't seem to be pretending, so he asked with interest:
"With the strength of the Vortex Tide Village, I don't think they can defeat a Great Ninja Village like Fog Hide."
"So, are we going to die and sit back and watch the Vortex Village be wiped out by the Fog Hidden Village?"
No matter how powerful the Vortex Clan's sealing technique is, it has its limits after all, even if the Vortex Clan can restrain the Tailed Beasts, it does not mean that they are stronger than the Tailed Beasts.
When it comes to destructive power, they are neither at the level of Tailed Beasts, nor can they construct a "strategic-level" force like Senju Tsuruma or Madara Uchiha.
In this case, the number of people is still an important indicator to measure the overall combat power of Vortex Village.
Therefore, it was precisely because of this that when the Fog Hidden Village was about to use force against the Vortex Tide Village, neither Tuan Zang nor Lei Luo thought that the Vortex Clan could resist it with their own strength.
It's just that with the combat power of a small clan, even if it has the resources of a small country, but the level determines the pattern, and the scale determines the strength, where can a clan compete with a ninja village?
Without Konoha's support, in the face of the blockade of the entire line of Fog Hidden Village, and the fierce offensive that is about to begin, the end of the Uzumaki clan can be imagined.
It's just that the truth is indeed the same truth, but Lei Luo revealed all this nakedly, which still caused some dissatisfaction with Tuan Zang.
Stared at Lei Luo coldly for a while, seeing that the latter's expression was not flustered, and there was a faint sense of interest, Tuan Zang only felt a fire in his chest for a while, and immediately stopped and stood in place, and said in a deep voice at the same time:
"See death or not save? Mr. Kazuma is kind to me, and Mito-sama is an elder whom I respect very much......"
"The catastrophe of the Vortex Country, since I have discovered it, the relevant information has naturally been sent over a long time ago."
Speaking of this, Tuan Zang gritted his teeth hatefully, and his voice almost condensed a layer of frost: "But the gang of the Vortex Clan ...... They didn't take our Konoha warnings seriously at all! ”
"Neither hurry up to migrate and take refuge in the village, nor quickly disperse the tribesmen, break them into pieces, and break away before the siege network of Wuyin Village is completely formed......"
"Their reply was full of perfunctory, and between the lines, the old man only read full of distrust."
Tuan Zang sneered twice, and said sarcastically:
"The Uzumaki clan, those people probably think that this incident is a conspiracy made by us Konoha in order to take the opportunity to annex them, hehe......"
After laughing for a while, Tuan Zang's face turned flat again, as if he didn't want to be angry with the Vortex Clan, he was just silent for a moment, and then turned to Lei Luo and said:
"Lei Luo, let me ask you, in this case, what should we Konoha do, so that we can't be considered dead?"
Although Tuan Zang's question seems sharp, it is actually very easy to answer, but Lei Luo has his own plans in his heart, so he is not in a hurry to give his answer for a while.
First of all, although Konoha does not have the spare strength to send troops to support the Uzumaki clan, the intelligence strength of the Great Ninja Village is indeed not to be underestimated, and it is not completely devoid of help to the Vortex Country.
From the analysis of the various movements of the Fog Hidden Village, it can be clearly judged its true intentions, and this kind of ability is not comparable to a small country like the Vortex Country.
The Vortex Clan is very strong, and the sealing techniques of each department are unpredictable, and they can even restrain tailed beasts, but this does not mean that they have no shortcomings.
Research, intelligence, personnel, military, funding, and even all aspects of education...... These things are an important factor in widening the gap between the Great Ninja Village and the Small Ninja Village.
It is undeniable that the Uzumaki clan specializes in the field of sealing arts, which is unique in the ninja world, but their size, system, and cultural concepts limit their development.
That's why they don't know what Konoha can know, even if the catastrophe is coming.
From the small to the big, the scale of the vortex village is small, and the development is serious, which is not a good thing for the whirlpool family.
But for Lei Luo, the Fog Hidden Village's intention to destroy the Vortex Country was not necessarily a bad thing.
Because, in this matter, Lei Luo was keenly aware of the opportunity, as well as ...... Operable space.
According to the thought in his mind, Lei Luo saw that Tuan Zang was still staring at him, as if he was still waiting for his answer, so he carefully considered his words before replying:
"The Uzumaki clan is ignorant and can't understand our Konoha kindness, which is of course their fault, but it's just ......"
Slightly prolonging his tone, Lei Luo glanced at Tuanzang, but found that the other party's expression did not change, and he couldn't help but guess in his heart, so he continued:
"It's just that the other party is our ally after all, and as a great ninja village, I think we should still show something to show Konoha's bearing."
"So......" Tuan Zang raised his head slightly and asked noncommittally, "Do you think that we are still going to send troops to support the Vortex Country?" ”
"yes." First responded lightly, Lei Luo immediately changed his words, he spread his hands, put on an indifferent look and said: "However, whether to help or not, and how to do it, it is up to your high-level to make an idea." ”
"After all, that's just my personal opinion."
