Chapter 66 Next Steps

Jiraiya wiped his forehead with his hand, then shook off the cold sweat that didn't exist, and said with an exaggerated expression: "Tsunade, I said a long time ago that your brother has a bad personality!" Is this exaggerated torture something that normal people can think of? You see, the cold guy in Orochimaru was scared! ”

"Didn't the rope tree already say that? Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself. It's a little brutal, but the world of ninjas is like that, isn't it? If you know to be afraid, you should keep your mouth shut! Maybe the consequences of offending my brother will be worse than offending me?" Tsunade playfully winked at Jiraiya, making Jiraiya, who was used to being scolded and beaten by her, shudder.

After receiving a reminder from Tsunade, Jiraiya turned his head to look at Rope Tree's face that seemed to be smiling, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart: "I said Rope Tree-kun...... We're all companions of the same village, so you don't mind my jokes, do you?" Jiraiya sneered with a humble face.

"How could I possibly care about your words?" Rope Tree said indifferently while treating Barang's orthopedics.

"Whew!" Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems that Rope Shu-kun's mind is very broad!" He is a man who aspires to be the Hokage! Jiraiya praised hypocritically. It seems that he is really jealous of the rope tree, and he actually said such a disobedient word to make up for his previous gaffe.

"Huh...... I think you may have misunderstood something! The reason why I don't care about you is because I am afraid that you will lower my IQ and I don't want to talk to you more. Rope tree said with his eyelids drooping and half-squinting.

"Boom!" Jiraiya fell to the ground, "Am I really too naΓ―ve?"

"Hehehe...... Zilai is also in terms of eloquence, and the ten of you together are not the opponent of Rope Tree-kun! However, the ten tortures invented by Rope Shu-kun really scared me! This is completely different from the usual performance of Rope Tree-kun! Orochimaru said with an inquiring look in his eyes, staring into the eyes of the rope tree.

Rope Tree avoided Orochimaru's words and directly changed the topic: "Okay guys, don't talk about it, it's still a task." Now that Barang has joined us, I think it's time for the next step. ”

Seeing that Rope Tree didn't answer his question head-on, Orochimaru was not annoyed at all, but licked his tongue with an evil smile, sometimes not answering is actually an answer, and Orochimaru already has his own answer in his heart.

"I guess the next step of Rope Tree-kun's plan must have something to do with this Lord Balang, right?" Orochimaru didn't dwell on it any more, but said along with the words of the rope tree.

"Yes, although we now have seven shinobi including Balang, sometimes it is not necessary to be strong enough to achieve the goal. With our current strength, we can completely sweep away the traitors and bandits under all the consortia of the Fire Nation head-on. If we want to rescue all the hostages and prevent the consortium behind them from escaping, we need to make a plan. Rope Tree told everyone what he was going to do.

"Wait...... Exterminating the bandits and rescuing the hostages is indeed our mission, but the consortium behind them doesn't seem to be part of the mission, right?" Shinnosuke voiced his doubts.

Rope Tree glanced at the people who were also puzzled by Shinnosuke: "It is true that the major consortia are not explicitly mentioned in the mission commission, but if you want to complete the first two mission objectives, you must also remove the consortia behind the bandits, to be precise, the power of the major consortia in the Fire Country will be uprooted!"

Because rebellion and bandits are only superficial harms, the root of all this lies in the consortia of various countries!

Otherwise, even if we get rid of all the bandits, it won't be long before these consortia re-arm and repeat what happened before!

If they can't destroy all the major consortia's forces in the Fire Nation at once, they will definitely transfer the assets looted from the Fire Nation to foreign countries, and then resurrect them after the limelight has passed! ”

After listening to the rope tree's analysis, everyone nodded in unison.

"The patriarch is right, with the financial resources of the consortium of various countries, it is completely possible to recruit more traitors and bandits, and the reason why they did not do this is to save expenses, if there are a lot of losses in the armed forces under their command, they will definitely replenish it as soon as possible!"

It was Barang, who had just joined the Senju Division, and everyone listened attentively to what he had to say, except for Shishin, who had a grudge against him.

He has the strength of the upper ninja, although everyone saw him easily defeated and captured by the rope tree, no one would underestimate him because of this, because there will be no more than fifty people in the major ninja villages like him, and he is a high-level force belonging to the ninja village! And there are too many unexpected elements in ninja battles, and one defeat doesn't tell the whole story. Balang was defeated by the Rope Tree's elaborate sneak attack, and none of the Shangnin present could guarantee that he would be able to avoid the Rope Tree's sneak attack.

And there are countless masters who were defeated by sneak attacks in the original Hokage, such as the third generation of Kazekage, the fourth generation of Kazekage, and even Obito and Uchiha Madara, these shadow-level and even shadow-level masters who surpassed the shadow level could not avoid being killed by a sneak attack, can it be said that these people are weaker than the sneak attackers?

Some sneak attackers are actually weaker than the attacked, and the reason why they carry out sneak attacks is because they are not sure of victory.

Although Balang's Thunder Escape Chakra Mode is not as strong as the three generations of Thunder Shadow, his speed and defense are stronger than ordinary Shangnin, plus he is proficient in sword art and Thunder Dun Ninjutsu, all the Shangnin present, including the elite Shangnin of Autumn Dao Wind, dare not guarantee that they will be able to defeat him.

And if it weren't for the unexpected appearance of the rope tree, Barang would have had the upper hand in the battle with Shishin, coupled with his experience of being able to retreat in that rebellion that shocked the ninja world, it is enough to show that his wisdom is not low. If it weren't for being too confident in his own strength, he wouldn't have been easily attacked by the rope tree because of carelessness this time, and I believe that after this lesson, he will definitely be more cautious in the future.

Therefore, it can be regarded as a big profit for Rope Tree to be able to subdue Balang this time, and he is more powerful and has more potential than Shishin, who has not yet learned advanced ninjutsu. And the reason why Balang recklessly refused the rope tree's solicitation before was also out of pride in his own strength, with his strength, he could become a high-level of any party, how could he be willing to surrender to a child? However, after seeing the "coffin", he still cried.

Out of respect for the strength, everyone nodded again in recognition of Balang.

"So I plan to use Barang's identity to infiltrate the headquarters of the Buaut Consortium and wipe out their high-level officials, and at the same time rescue the civilians imprisoned at the headquarters." Rope Tree took over and said his next step.
