"What a silly boy. ”

Ding Yi, who saw this scene from a high place, also smiled and shook his head, a tenacious ninja like the Thousand Hand Rope Tree is really rare in the Hokage world.

Seeing the Thousand Hands Rope Tree running straight to take out the trap set in advance, Ding Yi had no intention of helping him.

In just a few moments, a series of deafening explosions were heard in the forest.

Those Konoha ninjas who were still entangled with the cloud ninja suddenly wanted to explode, and burst out with strength far beyond the previous one, and solved those cloud ninjas in a short time.

One of the ninjas at the head turned to look in the direction where the explosion came from, and sneered: "I didn't expect this kid to fall for the trick so easily, in vain I also thought of three sets of strategies to deal with him, it's really disappointing!"

"Just in case, let's go check it out. Another female ninja said.

A few people flew over there, and soon came to the forest where the explosion had occurred.

At this moment, the trees within a radius of about twenty meters were blown to pieces by a large number of detonation charms, and in the vacant space, a figure covered in blood fell to the ground.

Brush! Brush!

Several figures fell on the side, and the female ninja stepped forward to check it, turned around and said, "It's dead, according to the orders of Lord Tuanzang, Seven, you can do it." ”

Seven is a young ninja with a blank face, who looks to be fourteen or fifteen years old.

He walked to the corpse of the Thousand Hands Rope Tree, squatted down and began to perform his task, he used a sharp blade to cut open the chest and abdomen of the Thousand Hands Rope Tree's corpse, skillfully took out the internal organs inside, and someone next to him unlocked a sealing scroll, took out some of the utensils sealed inside, put the internal organs in Seven's hand into the utensils, and sealed them back into the scroll again after preserving them.

Soon, the internal organs in the body of the Thousand Hands Rope Tree were hollowed out.

Seven wiped his hands, stood up, and said, "Mission accomplished." ”

The others had long since gotten used to his poker face, nodded indifferently, and the group quickly left the place.

Not long after these people left, another team of Konoha ninjas arrived here, only a minute or two apart, if it wasn't for the previous ninjas moving fast enough, the two sides might have bumped into each other.

As soon as these Konoha ninjas arrived here, they saw that there were obvious traces of a large number of detonation charms around them, and then before they could guess who had buried so many detonation charms here, they saw the corpse in the field with their chest and abdomen dissected.

Seeing the faces of the corpses, the expressions of these ninjas instantly changed.

"Damn, it's the Thousand Hands Rope Tree!" A Konoha ninja's face turned white with a brush, this is the little young master of the Thousand Hands clan in front of him, and even many people in the village think that he will be the most powerful contender for the fourth Hokage, but now... His body appeared right in front of their eyes.

Thinking of the consequences of this matter being known to the higher-ups of the village and those of the Thousand Hands Clan, the faces of several of them became extremely ugly.

After checking it and confirming that the corpse was really the Thousand Hand Rope Tree himself, the few of them discussed it, leaving two people to watch here, while the other two rushed back to the camp to inform Orochimaru, the commander-in-chief of the Thunder Country battlefield, of the news.

Ding Yi, who was hidden in a high place and watched all this happen from beginning to end, also turned around and left here at this time.

The death of the Thousand Hands Rope Tree has happened, so his next plan can be launched.

As for the death of the rope tree, will it make Tsunade completely collapse?

Ding Yi never thought of this possibility, even if Tsunade was really fragile, he could resurrect the rope tree and reunite their sister and brother, anyway, it was just to resurrect a mortal, and in this low-level world, it was really simple for Ding Yi.

Just now, he had memorized the soul aura of the Thousand Hands Rope Tree, and when the time came, it would be easy to find the soul of the Thousand Hands Rope Tree in the Pure Land of Bliss in the Hokage World.

As for his body, as long as there is a cell still there, Ding Yi can recreate an identical body for him with a wave of his hand, without the slightest difference at all.

......

A few days later, behind the battlefield of the Land of Winds, inside the Konoha camp.

Tsunade, who was healing several seriously injured Konoha ninjas in a camp, suddenly heard a rush of footsteps coming from outside, and for some reason, just now, she had a faint feeling of losing something, so that her state has not been good.

At this moment, hearing the sound of footsteps, for no reason, Tsunade felt a fluster, as if something terrible had happened.

At the door of the tent, a ninja ran in quickly.

"Tsunade-sama, this is urgent information from the battlefield of the Land of Lightning. ”

The ninja handed the small scroll in his hand to Tsunade, and Tsunade's face was inexplicably ugly and took the scroll.

The sealing technique above is Orochimaru's handwriting, and Tsunade, as Orochimaru's teammate, can be seen at a glance. Unsealing the seal, Tsunade slowly unfolded the scroll, but the words that greeted her made her almost faint.

"Cloud Ninja !!"

Tsunade clenched the information in his hands tightly, his eyes full of hatred and sadness.

The next moment......

Tsunade's figure disappeared in an instant, and the Konoha ninja in front of him who sent the information didn't see clearly how she left, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised, sighing that the legendary three ninjas deserved to be an existence that he needed to look up to.

......

The battlefield of the Land of Thunder, inside the Konoha camp.

Orochimaru, who had just returned from the front line with his tired body, heard a roar full of anger reach his ears as soon as he entered the camp.

"Orochimaru!!"

Enraged, Tsunade rushed up and punched Orochimaru in the face.

Boom!

The other ninjas in the camp didn't dare to say anything when they saw this, they all knew what had happened the other day. The boy who was known as the heir of the Senju clan, who was very likely to become the successor of the next Hokage, died on this battlefield just a few days ago.

What's even more cruel is that even his body was hollowed out afterwards, which can be said to be an extremely miserable death.

And that young man is the younger brother of the Tsunade-sama in front of him.

It's understandable that Tsunade would be so angry at this moment.

In a ruin a few hundred meters away, Orochimaru's limp body suddenly moved, followed by his mouth suddenly opened widely, and then another intact Orochimaru crawled out of his mouth.

"Ahem, cough, cough ......" Holding his chest with one hand, Orochimaru stood up with an unusually pale face, the chakra in his body was almost exhausted, and his body was even weaker than ever.

All of this is because of Tsunade's angry punch, if he didn't have enough life-saving ability, I'm afraid that even if he doesn't die, he will be crippled, at least lying on the hospital bed for a few months before he can walk on the ground.

"Tsunade, this guy!" Orochimaru looked in the direction of the camp with cold eyes, then slowly closed his eyes and took two deep breaths, suppressing the anger in his heart.

He knew that this time it was indeed his own negligence.

If he hadn't been so focused on this war that he neglected the safety of the Thousand Hands Rope Tree, the Thousand Hands Rope Tree would not have died so inexplicably, and he didn't even know who killed it.

So Tsunade was angry that he was not well protected, and he admitted it!

"Even the internal organs have been hollowed out, could it be him?" Orochimaru had a faint guess in his heart, but he wouldn't tell anyone about his guess, after all, he had no evidence at all, and the other party's status was higher than himself in the village, even if he said it, at most, he would let Tsunade go back and make a big fuss with anger.

No matter how you look at it, this kind of guessing based on intuition will only cause unnecessary trouble for everyone.

Orochimaru thought about it, but decided not to tell Tsunade about his guess.

Otherwise, with Tsunade's current mood, he would really rush back to the village to kill that person.

Inside the camp.

After Tsunade punched out, he regretted it a little.

Although Orochimaru did not protect her younger brother well, this can't completely blame Orochimaru alone, what kind of character her brother is, she doesn't know?

When he was in the village, he was clamoring to go to the battlefield all day long, and now that he is really on the battlefield, it is obviously impossible for him to stay in the camp all day and do some patrol work.

Orochimaru was not her brother's full-time nanny, so it was impossible to watch him 24 hours a day.

Tsunade understands that with the character of the rope tree, it will really be dangerous to go to the battlefield.

But the rope tree is big, and it has its own ideas, so it doesn't listen to her. She could only ask Orochimaru to take care of him on the battlefield, and she couldn't do anything else.

Now that Rope Tree is dead, does she really want to put all the blame on Orochimaru?

Tsunade closed his eyes in pain, feeling as if he had been abandoned by the whole world in an instant.

Orochimaru is back, dragging his weakened body with him.

He saw Tsunade, crouching there, crying like a child.

He had never seen such a fragile Tsunade, she had always been strong before, and she had never shown her vulnerable side in front of anyone. Not to mention crying, even when the three of them practiced with Teacher Yuanfei, they trained so hard every day, and Orochimaru never heard Tsunade complain even half a sentence.

With a faint sigh, the last bit of dissatisfaction with Tsunade in Orochimaru's heart vanished.

In the face of such a Tsunade, he couldn't be angry with her anymore, and that punch just now... Just say I'm sorry.

......

Time always passes quietly and inadvertently.

In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed since the death of the Thousand Hands Rope Tree.

Returning from the battlefield of the Land of Thunder that day, Tsunade was not immersed in a negative state. In the village, for her leaving the battlefield of the Wind Country without permission, she only verbally criticized, and Sarutobi slashed the face of a fake good person, and emphasized that he would help suppress this matter, and would not let some negative news spread in the village that was not good for Tsunade.

In this regard, Tsunade was also grateful to the teacher of Sarutobi Hiza, and then quickly threw himself into the war against Sand Ninja Village again.

More than a month has passed, and the fighting on this side of the battlefield of the Wind Country has basically subsided, and the two sides seem to have fallen into a state of cold war, stalemate with each other.

At this time, the dispatch order from the village also came down, and Tsunade was transferred back to the village, allowing her to rest for a while, and when the battlefield on this side of the Wind Country took a new turn, she rushed back.

Konoha, in front of a memorial monument.

Tsunade put down the bouquet in his hand and looked at the memorial monument in front of him, tears couldn't stop flowing.

"Rope tree, my sister swears to you, my sister will definitely find out the murderer of you, and you must make the other party pay for it with blood!" Tsunade said, although his tone was very calm, but the hatred hidden in it was enough to make people shudder.

He paused in front of the memorial monument for a moment, and it wasn't until it was getting late that Tsunade turned to leave.

Shortly after Tsunade left, another figure appeared in front of the memorial monument.

Wearing the Hokage robe and wearing a hat, Sarutobi appeared in front of the Senju Rope Tree's memorial monument, staring down at the name on the memorial monument.

After half a ring, he sighed slightly, turned around and prepared to leave.

At that moment, a sound of footsteps suddenly came from the darkness on the other side, and a figure walked out of the darkness on that side.

Sarutobi didn't seem surprised by the other party's appearance, but just glanced at him lightly.

"What, regret it?" Tuan Zang looked coldly at the old friend and old teammate in front of him, he found for the first time that he really didn't know each other before, and the previous ones who were unwilling and unconvinced turned into deep helplessness at this moment.

He had to admit that he was indeed inferior to the other party.

"Sarutobi, I've always been unconvinced why my teacher gave you the position of Hokage instead of me, but today... I'm convinced!" Tuan Zang said, turning his head to look at the memorial monument, "Maybe the teacher has already seen your essence, and you really deserve to be a teacher, much more thoroughly than we have seen." ”

"What the hell are you trying to say, Danzo. Ape Fei Ri said lightly.

"Ape Fei, borrow my hand and get rid of the Thousand Hand Rope Tree, you should be very proud, right?" Tuan Zang suddenly turned his head to stare at him, "Playing me like a monkey, it's really worthy of Ape Fei!"

Ape Fei Ri's eyes narrowed, and a cold light flickered in the depths of his eyes.

"What's the matter? I broke my mind and became angry?" Tuan Zang sneered: "It seems that Ape Fei your city is still not deep enough!"

After a moment of silence......

"I won't tell anyone about this matter, since the teacher wants me to exist as a secret in the village, as long as it is beneficial to the village, whether you use me or I take the initiative to do it, I will not hesitate at all. Tuan Zang stared at Ape Fei Ri Slash and said, "But Ape Fei has to remember, if I find out one day that you are going to do something that harms the village, even if I don't want to give up my rotten life, I will never let you succeed!"

With that, Danzang turned around and walked towards the darkness behind him...
