Chapter 284: Shikamaru's Means
Seeing that she had made such a great achievement but could not get Chen Lu's praise, Wu Yinxue deliberately made it difficult for him and said: "Hey, you just believe that I can handle so many upper and middle ninjas with a renegade, you won't use me as a shadow-level master." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"Not at all." Chen Lu smiled and shook his head, then snapped his fingers. Suddenly, swarms of stinging snakes and jumping insects ran in from the outside of the bunker, and it was obvious that they had surrounded the bunker since Chen Lu entered the conference room, and not even a single fly could fly out.
"Then you're not afraid of them killing ・・・・・・ well, you don't care." Wu Yinxue thought about it and swallowed what she originally wanted to say, if it weren't for the magical Ice Escape Blood Inheritance Limit, she would have died tragically under the mouth of the jumping worm with her traitorous companions, how could there be any chance to talk to Chen Lu here.
Of course, Chen Lu didn't care about Wu Yinxue's life or death, he turned around and coldly threw a sentence at her: "Go back and ask Abbather to check your genes, I need to understand where your unusual power comes from, or if you know, then tell me yourself." ”
After confirming that Misty Hidden Snow is an outlier among ninjas, Chen Lu's interest in her gradually grows, but at present, he does not have so much energy to care about these things, the next move of the Revolutionary Army of the Grass Country, and the whereabouts of the design drawings of the Chrono Chakra Cannon, these are his top priorities to realize his plan to destroy the world.
On the other hand, Naruto also came to the Grass Ninja Village, the capital of the Grass Country, without any guards with him, after all, no one is qualified to protect the strongest Hokage with the strength of the Shattered Star level. The commander of the Konoha Volunteer Force, Nara Shikamaru, who was stationed in the country of grass, came to greet him, and looking at Naruto's neat Hokage white robes, Shikamaru knew that what he feared most had not happened.
Shikamaru let out a long sigh of relief and said, "Naruto, I'm glad you didn't act rashly, it seems that you still have the consciousness of being a Hokage." ”
Naruto had a wry smile on his face, scratched his cheek with his fingers and explained, "After all, Kakashi-sensei even used the test specimen left by Orochimaru in order to stop me, and he was serious about risking his life to stop me with all his might, and I can't watch him do whatever it takes to stop it." ”
Just as Naruto did not hesitate to use the power of the Nine-Tails in pursuit of Sasuke, who had defected, Kakashi, who had returned to the peak of his strength, had to pay a heavy price for it, and Naruto didn't want this power to be used on himself, even if he wasn't afraid of it.
"If it were me, I'd do the same thing as Kakashi-sama." Shikamaru understood the meaning of Kakashi's near-death behavior, and now it was up to him to guide Naruto to make the right choice: "I'm sorry about Lee, but we have to follow the right way to comfort him." Let's go inside, the elders of the Grass Ninja Village are waiting for us. ”
This was a negotiation about Konoha sending more ninja troops to the country of grass to help eliminate the revolutionary army of the country of grass, and the elders of the country of grass stared at Naruto with disgust the moment he entered the conference room, and his actions were full of disrespect and hatred. This is also a matter of course, increasing the number of troops and waging war within one's own territory is a huge insult to the national sovereignty of the country of grass, and being able to do so is basically declaring that the country of grass has completely become a puppet country of Konoha.
Naruto also sensed that the atmosphere in this negotiation was not good, but he still frowned and said for the sake of his friend, "I think everyone knows, my friend Li Luo is ・・・・・・"
"Ahem." Speaking of this, Shikamaru immediately motioned for Naruto to stop, and then he announced to the elders of the Grass Country, "Elders, a few days ago we completed an investigation into the threat situation of your country's rebel organizations in your country's volunteer forces, and now we have a very urgent report to inform you, please allow me to present it here. ”
Soon after, a written document titled "Report on the Possibility of Weapons of Mass Destruction Development for Rebel Groups" was sent to the table of each of the Grass Country Elders, listing in detail the possibility that the Grass Country Revolutionary Army had mastered the design materials for the Chrono Chakra Cannon, a terrifying weapon, but there was no mention of Konoha stealing its design blueprints.
So, this is a fake report that is not true.
Even Naruto didn't know exactly when this fake report was formulated, and he couldn't help but ask Shikamaru in confusion, "Shikamaru, what is this?" ”
However, Shikamaru only looked at Naruto and motioned for Naruto not to ask too much, and continued to aggressively reprimand the elders of the Grass Country: "I think that the rebel organization in your country is planning a huge conspiracy that may affect the entire ninja world, and the harm will be far greater than imagined, so we in Konoha Ninja Village hope that your country will allow us to intervene in the counterinsurgency action at this time, and we Konoha Ninja will do our best to assist your army to complete the comprehensive elimination of the rebels." ”
An elder of the Grass Country immediately retorted: "Our Grass Country does not need your Konoha assistance, we know very well how many catties these rebels have, and it is impossible for them to complete such an exaggerated plan!" ”
"Oh, really?" Shikamaru's rebuttal to the country of grass seemed to have been expected, and he immediately threatened to retreat: "Then we will submit this report to the Five Shadows Talks, and the five major powers will discuss whether it is necessary to send a joint force to clear out the rebels in the country of grass, which must show that we Konoha are more sincere." ”
This is a naked declaration of partition, and the elders of the Grass Country naturally understand how serious the consequences will be if this happens, just driving out the Konoha side from the country is already hard enough, and gathering the five major countries to come together will completely exist in name only.
"Please consider our suggestion carefully, we are indeed sending this force for the benefit of your country, and I hope that the country of grass will respond to our goodwill as soon as possible." After saying this, Shikamaru nodded to each of the Grass Country elders and pulled Naruto out of the conference room. He knew that he had thrown enough chips, and the next thing he just needed was for the other party to figure it out for himself.
As soon as he left the conference room, Naruto anxiously asked Shikamaru, "Shikamaru, what's going on, aren't we going to catch the real culprit who killed Xiao Li?" How did it turn into the destruction of weapons of mass destruction? ”
"Naruto, I understand the weight of Xiao Li in your heart, but his death is not enough to put on the negotiating table as a bargaining chip." Shikamaru's thinking circuit is very different from that of the affectionate Naruto, and when Naruto is simply thinking about finding out the real culprit who killed Xiao Li, he has already considered more than a dozen sets of alternatives to achieve this goal.
"What we need is results, Naruto. Sometimes the name isn't that important, and trust me and you both feel the same way about Li's death, so we may need some less glamorous means.
