Chapter 116: Betrayal
(Shrugging my shoulders, what can I say, I can only say that it turns out that my brothers are indeed powerful, and I can only repay them with the number of words...... οΌ
In a conference room in the Hokage's office building, the top ninjas in the entire Konoha Village gathered, although they already represented the highest stage of force in the entire Ninja Village, but the three people in front of them still made these guys with superb strength dare not make the slightest noise.
Sitting cross-legged on the futon, opposite the ninja were three old men, sitting behind the wide wooden table, their slightly thin bodies sinking deep into the soft back of the chairs, but they did not show the slightest bit of the decadence that the old man should have.
The old man sitting in the middle of the table formed a semicircle, which was closer to the position of his companion, and on the table was a hat with the word "fire" printed on the front, indicating his identity - the third generation of Hokage apes to fly to the sun.
The two old men next to Sarutobi are two of the only three elder advisors in Konoha - Mito Menyan and Zhuankou Koharu, and the other elder Shimura Danzo was also asked to attend the meeting by Sarutobi Hiza, but the other party shirked on the grounds of physical discomfort.
This was a rare emergency meeting, and the village shinobi and the team leader and above personnel in various departments, except for those on duty, were ordered to participate.
It has been confirmed that Orochimaru did come to Konoha Village and has strong malice, so it is time to report this matter to the senior ninjas in Konoha Village, so that they can be prepared, and more importantly, the body of a dark ninja was found in a remote area of Konoha Village this morning!
This is a trivial matter, the dark department belongs directly to the Hokage, and it is one of the most powerful armed forces in Konoha Village, and it is one of the responsibilities to monitor the security in Konoha Village, not to mention that it is an eventful time at this time, not counting the threat of Orochimaru, as the organizer of the Zhongninja exam, any mistake during the exam will lose face in front of all countries, impression reputation, and this is fatal to attract employers with reputation, and it is fatal to the ninja village who undertakes the task with reputation, someone attacked and killed the dark ninja of Konoha Village, It not only means that the other party may be planning something unspeakable, but also shows that there are unstable risk factors in Konoha Village, which must be solved before the official selection starts and celebrities from various countries come to Konoha, otherwise it will have a negative impact on Konoha.
"The body of a shadow ninja was found in Kikyo City this morning." Ape Fei Ri took the lead in breaking the slightly quiet atmosphere in the conference room and said in a deep voice.
The ninjas present were shocked when they heard Sarutobi's words, and Morino Ibiki, who was attending the meeting on behalf of the Intelligence Interrogation Department, had already asked in a deep voice, "Is it Orochimaru's hand?" β
"I'm afraid I can't be sure that it's Orochimaru's hand." Mito Menyan, who was sitting quietly behind his desk, said lightly: "But the possibility is not small." β
Sarutobi then Mito Menyan said: "Orochimaru is indeed planning something...... judging from the information obtained so far, it is likely that he is planning to destroy MiΓ¨ Konoha!" β
One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
Many of the ninjas present have more or less been in contact with Orochimaru, and they all lived in the shadow of the Konoha Sanninja in their childhood or when they were fledgling, and among the three ninjas, the most eye-catching and unforgettable personal temperament style is none other than Orochimaru, because of this, even after many years now, they can't forget the man who feels weird and inexplicable at first impression.
Orochimaru's terrifying character and strength, even now that all the ninjas here have grown up, they still feel a wave of fear from the bottom of their hearts.
"Then we should immediately terminate the middle ninja exam and find Orochimaru!" Sitting in the first row, his face was tense, and he said with a slightly nervous face: "The official selection of Zhongnin is about to begin, if he ......." β
"Impossible." Kakashi Hagi, who was sitting beside him, shook his head and retorted: "Invitations to celebrities from various countries have been sent, and the holding of the Zhongnin exam has begun to build momentum a long time ago, and now the impact is already great, and if it is terminated rashly, it will have a huge impact on Konoha's reputation, and celebrities from various countries will also look down on Konoha Village." β
"That guy is so cold-blooded that he uses the ninjas of his own ninja village to make a real man!" And unceremoniously reprimanded Kakashi Hachiki loudly: "If he suddenly makes trouble after celebrities from all over the world come to Konoha, it will have a greater impact on our Konoha Village!" If there are any deaths and injuries among celebrities, the reputation of Konoha Village is over! β
The same words do not represent cowardice in his heart, and Kakashi's statement is not arrogant, the opinions of the two are actually reasonable, but as the leader of a large organization, as the Hokage of Konoha Village, many things are also a last resort.
The same Kenyì is of course conservative, but Sarutobi can only choose Kakashi's opinion, and Konoha Village was so frightened by Orochimaru alone that he hurriedly terminated the large-scale event of the middle ninja exam, and when it was transmitted to the ninja world, he was afraid that he would laugh off his big teeth.
"Don't say it, I'm the same." Ape Fei Ri Chop softly interrupted the same person who wanted to refute again, and said to everyone: "This event can't be terminated because of Orochimaru alone!" And this time, I'm afraid that Orochimaru is not the only one who wants to ...... against Konoha. β
"How?" Zhuan Xiaochun frowned and asked.
"And thanks to Shikamaru and their children." Sarutobi chuckled lightly, and glanced at Nara Shikaku, who was also sitting in the crowd, lightly: "The body of the sound ninja Murakami Shinobu obtained by Tong GuΓ², we have obtained a lot of information. β
In fact, the reason why Kawakawa Qiwan was able to be killed, although Shikamaru made great efforts, but it really relied on the strength of a few people in the eighth and tenth classes of Konoha Shinobi, but Sarutobi only mentioned Shikamaru at this time, obviously because Shikamaru already had a certain status in Sarutobi's heart, and it was not easy for a ninja who was still at the level of Shinobi.
"Orochimaru was discovered by Red Bean on his own initiative, and warned us not to stop the shinobi exam, wanting us to think that he was only here for Sasuke Uchiha." Sarutobi continued: "But now we know that he has actually been planning to destroy Konoha all along, and it is impossible to rely on his strength alone, as well as the strength of the small ninja village he created! β
Including Mito Menyan and Koharu, everyone in the conference room was shocked.
"Are you saying ...... that someone in the alliance will join forces with Orochimaru and betray us Konoha!?" Mitarai Azuki nervously asked Ape Fei Hi Chop.
"An alliance treaty is actually not much different from a verbal agreement, just a piece of paper, how effective can it be!?" Nara Shikahisa sneered and said to Mitarai Red Bean: "In the past wars that spread throughout the ninja world, which country has not torn up the treaty? β
