Chapter 125: Stalemate
Deep underground, inside the base of the roots.
Tuan Zang sat on the chair, his eyes were gloomy, desperately suppressing the anger in his heart, and the whole person exuded an aura of no one to enter.
"Bastard!" Tuan Zang suddenly yelled, the expression on his face was very hideous, and at the same time, the crutch he was holding in his hand slammed on the ground, making a bell sound, Tuan Zang trembled with anger, and his eyes showed unwillingness, anger, and even a trace of despair.
For the past month, he has been busy with the matter of cooperating with Orochimaru, and he has not paid attention to other information at all, and just now, his subordinates reported to him the news that he saw Jiraiya appear in Konoha Village, and also helped the Minister of the Ministry of Torture, Mori Nai Biki, repel the giant snake summoned by Orochimaru.
But it doesn't matter, in the eyes of Danzo, the appearance of Jiraiya only represents one thing, that is, the throne of the Hokage, and he is away from missing it again.
He tried his best, and even did not hesitate to cooperate with Orochimaru, a traitorous ninja, and finally killed the Japanese slash, but now, he has to make wedding dresses for others.
Danzo himself knew in his heart that there was only one way for him to become the Hokage, and that was that Konoha was really unavailable.
Only in this way can it be his turn, after all, Danzang's age is too old, in the eyes of others, he is already a useless old man, and even the strength of the three generations of Hokage has greatly declined, let alone him.
It's impossible for Tuan Zang to roll up his sleeves and say to them that Lao Tzu has the cells of the first generation, and he is more energetic than young people, and you are completely thinking too much.
And now, just when he thought he had finally succeeded, Jiraiya returned, and between Jiraiya and him, more than 90% of Konoha would choose Jiraiya, even the two members of the elder group who had always been in cahoots with him, that is, his dream of becoming the Hokage was shattered again.
Just when Tuan Zang was alone and frustrated, he suddenly felt that somewhere, it seemed that there was a great malice germinating against him.
......
The scene fell into a stalemate, and Orochimaru and Sakura stood face to face, but neither of them made the first move.
It's not that Orochimaru is still immersed in his thoughts, in fact, although Orochimaru has made up the picture of Tuanzang's persecution of him for a long time in his mind before, the time spent in the real world is not even a minute, and he has already come back to his senses.
It's just that after Orochimaru thought he knew the truth, he didn't immediately kill Sakura, who was just a shinobi in his eyes, because that didn't mean anything to the whole battle, in a battle at this level, Shinobi was no different from cannon fodder, even if he was alive, it was useless, his real enemies should be those shinobi hidden in the dark.
What's more, Sakura's combat power may not be as good as Shinobi in Orochimaru's eyes, after all, Sakura was knocked out by a gust of wind in the Forest of Death, and even Orochimaru's heart was a little surprised at that time, because even if he was a student of the ninja school, he would not be so "weak".
And judging from Sakura's direct admitter to me before, it is estimated that she has not made much progress in the more than a month since the Forest of Death, and if Sakura really participates in the battle, she will drag the other party back.
Orochimaru didn't make a move at the moment, he was just thinking about how to escape from here.
came to hunt down his own Shangnin, how can it be less than the plural, and on his side, he himself has lost all combat effectiveness, so the only one who can rely on is Dou.
But Orochimaru also knows very well that Dou can't be the opponent of more than a dozen Shangnin, that is to say, he theoretically has only one end in death.
Orochimaru was not completely unacceptable to this result, not because he was not afraid of death, but because he knew that even if he died here, he would still be resurrected from other ninjas who had been planted by him.
But if he could, Orochimaru still wanted to try his best to avoid this result, because every time he cast the Immortal Reincarnation, there would be a three-year interval, and if he used the Immortal Reincarnation now, it would mean that he would not be able to take Sasuke within three years, which would be contrary to his plan to grab Sasuke's body within a year.
And not only that, if he is really killed by the pursuing ninja, although Orochimaru himself will not really die, but the pocket standing next to him will not have this treatment, and if he is killed, he will really die.
And Dou is now Orochimaru's important assistant, if he loses Dou's help, half of Orochimaru's experiments will not be able to continue, which is something that Orochimaru can't accept.
Therefore, in order to ensure that his experiments and plans were not affected, Orochimaru could only try his best to think of a plan to get out.
And Sakura also has a reason why she doesn't do it, that is, to further weaken Orochimaru.
Sakura is not a prophet after all, although because she knows the plot, she knows that the current Orochimaru is very weak, but she would not have thought that the Orochimaru would be weak to this extent, after all, in her memory, when she was at the Heaven and Earth Bridge, Orochimaru could temporarily suppress the four-tailed Naruto even if her hands could not be sealed.
Although Orochimaru is not as intact as it was at that time, it is conservatively estimated that it should also have the strength of the upper ninja.
So since Orochimaru doesn't take the initiative, Sakura is happy to spend it with him, anyway, as time goes by, the other party's injuries will only get worse and worse if they are not treated, and it will be easier for Sakura to clean him up at that time, so she doesn't care about waiting a little longer.
"Strange, why haven't those people come out yet." After a while, seeing that no one had appeared in front of him, a trace of doubt rose in Orochimaru's heart.
Orochimaru's strength has now dropped to freezing, and his perception has also plummeted, and Dou is not good at perception ninjutsu, so if there is an enemy at the upper ninja level, they will not be able to detect it now.
Orochimaru looked at Sakura, his eyes revealed a killing intent, and he said in his heart: "No matter, although I haven't figured out a way to escape, but the deterioration of this body is even more serious than I imagined, if I don't stabilize it with medicine quickly, it won't take long to collapse, then I will have to change my body, so whether I can escape or not, I can't drag it out, I must fight quickly." ”
"Since you can't hide it, then I'll kill this shinobi first."
Orochimaru looked at Sakura calmly, he opened his mouth, and a hoarse voice sounded.
"Pocket."
"Yes, Orochimaru-sama." Hearing Orochimaru's words, Dou nodded.
There is no need for too much communication, with the tacit understanding cultivated by the perennial cooperation experiment between the Great Snake Pill and the Medicine Master, just from the tone of the Great Snake Pill, Dou understands the meaning of the Great Snake Pill.
That's - kill Sakura.
