Chapter 267: Ruthless
Chapter 267 Ruthless
When Shikamaru killed Kakuto and re-entered the base of Otoshinobi Village, he noticed that the interior of the underground building was already in chaos, and when he found the body of the white phosphorus serpent, as well as the knife marks in the room, and learned the information from the mouth of an Otoshinobi, he finally understood why the situation had developed to this point.
The commotion caused by the White Phosphorus Orochigo had long been known to the other Ninja in the base, and when Sasuke Uchiha and Ghost Lantern Mizutsuki left, some Otoshi also found Orochimaru's body, which immediately left the dragons in the Otoshinobi Village leaderless and didn't know how to deal with themselves.
Some people believe that Orochimaru is dead, and some people still believe that Orochimaru is still alive, and no one dares to run away immediately, but they don't know what to do.
Syllable!
Otoshibu was grabbed by Shikamaru's throat and pressed against the wall, and spiritual energy gathered from Shikamaru's palm like a tide, wrapping Otonomi's entire person, revealing only his head.
"Orochimaru isn't here, who's in charge here?" Shikamaru asked with a calm face, but the illusionary power that kept impacting Otoshinobi's mind made his peaceful expression still as hideous as a demon in the eyes of the other party.
Orochimaru who was forced to abandon the container wanted to seize Uchiha Sasuke's body, but unfortunately the time had not come, did he prepare for the reincarnation ceremony, looking at the current situation, he had been suppressed or killed by Uchiha Sasuke, and Shikamaru was not interested in chasing and killing Sasuke, his attention was more focused on taking over Orochimaru's legacy.
"Hirano, Yasuo Hirano." Otoshinobu replied hurriedly.
"Take me to him!" Shikamaru withdrew his palm when he heard this, and after the spiritual energy returned to his body, Otomaru collapsed on the ground, sweating profusely, constantly wheezing, looking at Shikamaru from time to time with a fearful gaze, and did not resist, maybe he thought that Yasuo Hirano had more Otomaru around him, and he could capture Shikamaru.
It's just that the thoughts in his heart are not taken to Shikamaru by heart. If the ninjas of the Sound Ninja Village flee because of Orochimaru's death, it is likely that they will wreak havoc in the territory of Tanokuni, causing many incidents and causing a lot of trouble to Shikamaru, so the top priority now is to stabilize these ninjas who have far more strength than ordinary people.
After Shikamaru followed the sound shinobi to a place where the sound shinobi gathered, what happened next seemed clichΓ© and rough.
Intimidation, threats, and oppressive forces, for these ninjas who have been enslaved by Orochimaru for many years, it is a little ridiculous to expect love and peace to influence them, and the power and means to make them fear from the bottom of their hearts is the most direct and effective way to control them - after all, Shikamaru has never really wanted to leave all the ninja behind.
After Shikamaru beheaded six noisy ninjas in between breaths, the shinjinas gathered in the hall were silent, and the blood and killing shocked them, and these ninjas who seemed unruly one moment became as quiet as good babies the next.
"Whoever walks out of this hall, I'll kill him!" Shikamaru lightly threw his head at his feet and said to the otoshibi gathered in the hall.
Yasuo Hirano was also silent, but Shikamaru turned his head and asked him, "Are you Yasuo Hirano?" β
ββ¦β¦ Yes. If it weren't for a ninja who was willing to submit to power, Yasuo Hirano and many ninja wouldn't have survived under Orochimaru for so long, at this time, hearing Shikamaru's question, after a slight hesitation, Yasuo Hirano replied fluently.
"Orochimaru has been killed by me, and from today onwards, I will be the head of the Otoshinobi Village, do you understand?" Shikamaru stared at the other party and asked in a cold voice.
ββ¦β¦γβ A trace of struggle flashed on Yasuo Hirano's face, but seeing Shikamaru's eyes narrowed dangerously, he hurriedly replied, "I understand." β
"Good." Shikamaru could faintly feel in his heart whether the other party was lying, although Yasuo Hirano's answer seemed reluctant, but he was just worried that Orochimaru was not dead and would be retaliated against, and when he really saw the corpse of the white phosphorus snake, he would understand, although he couldn't be a loyal subordinate, he was also a good assistant.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Syllable!
Shikamaru closed the information in his hand and closed his eyes and thought about it.
There are one hundred and seven ninjas in the sound ninja village, seventeen upper ninjas, sixty-two middle ninjas, and twenty-eight lower ninjas, but according to the level of Konoha Village, the level of these ninjas is estimated to be lowered by one level, and it is enough to suppress ordinary people, but for the ninja villages of other countries, it is too weak, and if it were not for the strong man who has the strength of the five major ninja village leaders in the past, it is impossible to have the ability to break the grass ninja village.
The mortality rate of the lower ninja is very high, and it has been constantly replenished, so among the twenty-eight lower ninjas, many people's strength is only barely stronger than ordinary people, but they can be somewhat guaranteed after they are promoted to the middle ninja, which is why the number of middle ninjas is more than the upper ninja and the lower ninja combined.
Most of these ninjas were gathered in Shikamaru's central base, while the other ninjas were scattered to his sub-base.
Orochimaru has many bases and secret research institutes in the territory of Tanokuni, and Yasuo Hirano is not sure that he knows all of them, but he knows the news of the southern stronghold and the northern secret research institute that Shikamaru is slightly interested in, and he is also very clear about the information and intelligence of the central stronghold where he is now, even including the location of Orochimaru's secret room.
Yasuo Hirano stood in the room with his hands down, he was unexpectedly young, with short gray-white hair, slightly dark skin, a handsome face, and a restrained expression. He didn't know Shikamaru's habits and personality yet, and he was worried that he wouldn't show enough ability to attract the attention of the other party, so he seemed a little uneasy.
"From now on, no one is allowed to leave the base without my orders, and if any of them escape, I will only ask," Shikamaru pondered for a long time, then suddenly opened his eyes and ordered Yasuo Hirano in a deep voice, "I will leave here for a while, go to other bases to have a look, and when I come back, I will find that you have not carried out my orders, so you can apologize - believe me, then you will have an easier time." β
The corners of Yasuo Hirano's eyes twitched slightly, both surprised and delighted, the task given to him by Shikamaru showed that he still had value for Shikamaru, but the consequences of failing the mission were also very strict, he didn't think about taking the opportunity to escape, when Shikamaru revealed his identity to him, Yasuo Hirano knew that he had no expectations of escaping and confronting, at the age of thirteen, he was a genius in the world of shaking, a boy known as "the god of deer", he and other ninja couldn't look at him at all, especially after seeing the corpse of the white phosphorus snake, What little hope he had had was finally dashed.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The southern stronghold is actually a prison specially used by Orochimaru to hold prisoners, and the administrator here is Shikamaru's acquaintance, Xiang Phosphorus from Kusa Ninja Village, maybe Orochimaru is interested in his perception ability to prevent fugitives from appearing, but these are not important to Shikamaru.
Shikamaru cares more about being a descendant of the Uzumaki clan than Shigego in the Northern Secret Office, so this is his first destination after leaving the central stronghold.
The stronghold, like Orochimaru's previous style, is hidden deep underground, cold and damp, and you can smell a pungent odor.
Kazo discovered the anomaly almost as soon as Shikamaru stepped into the stronghold, and she couldn't understand why Shikamaru was here at first, but this familiar chakra was so embedded in her mind that it was absolutely impossible to go wrong.
She hesitated in her heart, the central stronghold was controlled by Shikamaru at the first time, and the news of Orochimaru's killing had not yet spread, and now Xiang Phosphorus didn't know how to face Shikamaru.
Is it to leave with him, or is it ....... Xiang Phosphorus was entangled, but he was shocked to realize that the Shikamaru Chakra in his perception suddenly disappeared, and then another place appeared, and with the transfer of Shikamaru Chakra, the energy representing the life of Otoshinobi dissipated one by one.
"Oops." After Xiang Phosphorus sensed that Shikamaru had killed the last otoshinobi, she couldn't help but tremble, she hadn't been carried away by the thoughts, she knew that she had been just unrequited love all along, and she didn't know what the purpose of Shikamaru was here, would she still be thinking about the old love, or would she raise the butcher knife murderously?
Shikamaru didn't know how anxious Xiang Phosphorus was, he never thought of relying on Otoshi to help him complete the change, the reason why appeasing the ninjas in the central stronghold was just to prevent them from causing trouble, and the Otoyama in the southern stronghold would be sent by Orochimaru, at least to ensure a certain amount of loyalty, Shikamaru naturally would not leave any alive.
Following the information from Otoshinobi's mouth, Shikamaru slowly walked to the room where Kaoru was.
Bang!
Xiang Phosphorus noticed that Shikamaru stopped outside the door for a while, and was feeling a little puzzled, but the door was suddenly pushed open by Shikamaru from the outside, and Shikamaru with a smile on his face strode into the room, and said to Xiang Phosphorus, who was slightly open in the sandalwood mouth: "We meet again, Xiang Phosphorus." β
He remembers me! Xiang Phosphorus was secretly happy in his heart, but his face looked very reserved, and he frowned and said, "Lu Maru? How are you here. She deliberately looked at the ruined door, "And you're rude to do that!" β
Shikamaru has long been incomparable, his thinking is unprecedentedly clear, and his every move, the instant dodging of his eyes and the subtle changes in his expression cannot be hidden in his eyes, deceiving him.
So that's the case, Shikamaru was slightly stunned, and after feeling Xiang Phosphorus's true attitude, he suddenly felt that the original rhetoric and means were no longer needed, and said directly: "Come with me, Xiang Phosphorus, I need your help." β
"If you're worried about Orochimaru, don't worry, he's dead." Seeing that Xiang Phosphorus didn't answer immediately, he continued: "And I'm not pleading with you now, you should understand that you are not qualified to bargain. β
"Come with me, or I'll leave with your corpse." Shikamaru said in a calm, even somewhat cold voice.
As soon as his words fell, Xiang Phosphorus staggered back two steps as if he had been hammered, and sat down on a chair, his face as pale as paper.
