Chapter 33 The Taoyuan Plan
The morning of the second day before the end of the battle.
Camp Iwakuin.
Ayane unraveled the seal on the scroll with a blank face, and took out the corpses of twelve ninjas wearing Konoha dark uniforms from inside.
According to the price agreed between Iwain Village and her before, the bounty for a root ninja's head is five million taels.
There were a total of twelve corpses here, so Loess was happy to pay a bounty of 60 million taels to Ayane.
These corpses are relatively intact, and Iwain's autopsy team must have learned a lot of secrets about Konoha from them.
Of course, I don't care about these Ayane, and with the urine nature of the roots, even if it's a corpse, I'm afraid that the enemy won't get a lot.
For Ayane, the bounty of 60 million taels is what she really values.
"Mind working together again, Miss Hinata Ayane? The payout won't disappoint you. โ
Loess asked with a strong willingness to hire.
If you can pay money, you can get rid of the threat of Konoha roots, which is really a good deal for Iwakure.
"No, I have other things to deal with, so that's all for this collaboration. If there is a chance to talk about it later. โ
Although the price offered by Iwakure is very attractive, his information has already been obtained by Konoha, and it will be difficult to get benefits from the next time he fights with Konoha's ninjas.
And in this battle, she was also injured, her body was a little sore and weak, the thick eyebrows guy's physical skills were not so easy to defend, and the hand bones were seriously damaged, and she had to be honest during this period of time.
Fighting Konoha ninjas is just too exhausting.
"It's a shame."
Hearing Ayane's refusal, Loess didn't force it, and could only hope to cooperate again in the future.
"By the way, it's a friendly reminder. In the future, if you encounter a Konoha ninja wearing a green tights, be careful with his physical skills. โ
Before leaving, Ayane gave Loess this piece of advice.
"Green tights...... Konoha ninja? โ
Loess touched his chin, guessing who this Konoha ninja was.
Among the many Konoha elite ninjas he is familiar with, there doesn't seem to be a Konoha ninja wearing a green tights.
Who is Ayane talking about?
Konoha is a new shinobi?
"I'll be careful."
Ayane's words can't be regarded as groundless, there must be something to rely on to give such a hint.
"That's all for ourselves, we'll see you later."
Dropping this sentence, Ayane simply turned around and walked towards the outside of the Iwain camp.
Seeing Ayane leave, Loess paused to think about the prompt that Ayane had left just now.
"Loess, do you want to send someone to follow her?"
The Explosive Ninja Hunter walked over to Loess and asked softly.
"No, there are still many opportunities to cooperate with her in the future, for the sake of the white eyes that are not sure if you can get them, it is irrational to provoke a powerful ninja for no reason."
Loess shook his head and continued to say in a calm tone:
"Moreover, the most important thing in the underground black market industry is integrity. Only honesty can make Yan Yin gain a foothold in the underground black market, and make those bounty hunters flock to it. If we break this agreement first, we will lose the credibility of the entire underground black market. โ
After all, cultivating excellent ninjas consumes too much resources.
Rather than this, it is better to use cheap funds readily available and look for bounty hunters on the underground black market who are good at engaging in war activities. For cheap pay, let those war experts use them for themselves...... It is a very necessary thing for the current Iwakure.
After all, they don't care about paying tens of millions of taels in Yanyin Village, and they can take it out casually, which is indeed a 'low' reward.
However, if you want to cultivate an excellent elite ninja from childhood to adulthood, the various resources spent can be converted into cash, which is not as simple as tens of millions of taels.
"It's a pity that we couldn't contact Ruri Uchiha, and even if the underground black market posted a job post, the other party didn't leave the slightest response, and it seems that they don't care about cooperating with us."
As Ayane said, Ruri Uchiha would not react in any way to their Iwakure's movements.
Whether you are interested, or simply don't want these tens of millions of taels, or maybe even reach hundreds of millions of taels, the loess is unknown.
However, Loess believes that the former is more likely, and it is impossible for anyone to be indifferent to such a huge bounty, especially a defector ninja who no longer has a fixed living environment.
โ
"How's Tuanzang's injury?"
The purpose of a hearty battle with Iwakure is to buy time for the roots of Danzo and prevent Iwakure's ninja and Hinata Ayane from merging together.
The process was all in their calculations, but the result was beyond Jiraiya's expectations.
He dispatched so many root elites, and even sent his own disciple Mizuto to support Danzo, just to be able to deal with Hinata's dangerous and intractable defection ninja.
As a result, their actions ended in complete failure.
This seems to be a very incredible thing in the eyes of the people.
The roots that were brought over lost more than half of the manpower, and a small half came back, and they were also injured, and there were a lot of colors on their bodies.
The leader of the roots, Tuan Zang, himself, was seriously injured and unconscious, and has not woken up so far.
Basins of clear water were constantly sent to Tuanzang's tent, and when they came out, the basins were stained red with blood.
"Elder Tuanzang is out of danger for now, but it's uncertain when he'll wake up. According to the healer, even if he can wake up, I am afraid that his strength will be greatly reduced when he acts on the battlefield as a ninja in the future. โ
Watergate stood outside and answered the question of Jiraiya.
At the door of the tent, there were two more people standing with their roots like door gods.
They were all wounded, apparently those who had survived the previous battle. They stood here, and no one was allowed to enter it except for the hospital personnel to disturb their superiors' rest.
"Is it so serious? What's going on? How did your actions fail? โ
In the judgment of Jiraiya at the beginning, this planned war of annihilation did not dare to say that it was nine out of ten, and it was not a problem for the success rate to reach more than 80 percent.
Regarding Jiraiya's question, Watergate replied with a wry smile:
"Well, it can only be said that I underestimated the strength of the other party, and misjudged the opponent's physical ability to cover it. Generally speaking, even if you know the intelligence, you may not be able to target the enemy 100% completely. โ
Nebe did obtain some information about Hinata Ayane before the battle, and based on the total battle time of the decoy team, he deduced the upper limit of Ayane's strength.
And this kind of inference has tried to raise the strength of the opponent as much as possible, but the result is still a miscalculation.
And it's almost outrageously wrong.
Thinking of the impact of soft boxing that seems to be overwhelming and has nowhere to dodge, it can only be said that it refreshes the inherent concept of soft boxing of the Hyuga clan by Watergate.
The three views of the Hyuga clan's soft fist need to be reshaped.
If it weren't for the fact that after Maite Dai took the secret medicine, at the last moment, the power of the Seven Doors was fully opened to offset part of the strength of Tuan Zang instead of Tuan Zang, I am afraid that Tuan Zang would have been killed on the spot.
Even if you don't die, you will die if you send it back because the rescue is ineffective.
As for the water gate himself, because of the time difference, he waited for Tuanzang's attack to hit, and then he would use the Flying Thunder God technique to carry out the second combo.
However, before he could use the Flying Thunder God Technique to transfer to the past, Tuan Zang's miserable fate suddenly made him instantly dispel this idea, and instead quickly withdrew from the battlefield with the seriously injured Tuan Zang to avoid the root leader from being seriously injured and dying.
In order to allow the rest of the people to evacuate safely, the root ninjas of the two squads, a total of eight people, decisively stayed behind and sacrificed themselves to break the queen.
Knowing what happened, Jiraiya's expression was extremely solemn.
I'm afraid that even if I pass by, I am afraid that if I don't notice it for a while, I may not be able to achieve benefits.
Ninja intelligence is very important.
Although he didn't like Tuanzang, he had to admit that this battle meant a lot to Konoha.
The more information you know about the enemy, the fewer people will die later.
As long as you understand this, even the strongest enemy can be targeted with use tactics.
Even a difficult white-eyed ninja like Ayane would be much easier in the next battle with so much important information to gain access to.
However, Jiraiya doesn't think Ayane still has the guts to have a grand battle with Konoha again.
As long as she is a little smart, she should know what the end of fighting again and facing her after leaking so much information is.
In this way, the other party's actions should be much more restrained.
Or, more cautiously, evacuate from the battlefield of the Land of Grass.
Either way, Konoha can easily take a few breaths.
It's just that there is a more serious problem, the root has suffered heavy losses this time, and I am afraid that it will not be able to play any role on the battlefield in a short period of time.
The loss of twelve members at once, all of them are Konoha elite ninjas, and the loss is not insignificant.
I hope this guy can do his part. Although Zilai also thinks so, he also knows that it is unrealistic.
"Watergate, I'll leave it to you here. You take a break these days. โ
"Yes, Mr. Jiraiya, please do it."
After Jiraiya left, Mizumon also walked in a different direction, thinking about the problem.
Obviously, it was difficult for him to intervene in this battle, and his Flying Thunder God Technique would be restrained by the white eyes to some extent.
No matter where you appear, as long as you are within 10 kilometers, you will be discovered.
In the moment after the transfer, he needs to charge up and attack, although the time is short, but it is a gap that must exist, just like after Ayane uses Huitian, there will be a moment of stiffness.
The gap between the transfer of the Flying Thunder God's technique and the attack falling on the enemy after the transfer is your own 'Freeze Time'.
To make up for this stiff time, to be honest, Watergate doesn't have any good ideas, and can only further shorten the time required for the attack through constant practice.
And......
The lack of offensive power is the key. There was a hint of solemnity in Watergate's turquoise blue eyes.
He spread out his palm, and subconsciously condensed a blue chakra ball in his hand that he could grasp with his hand.
This is a self-developed A-grade Muji ninjutsu - Spiral Pill.
It is a special ninjutsu with extreme changes in the form of chakra.
Although the power is enough to kill most ninjas, as the enemies in battle become stronger and stronger, and the abilities become more and more specialized, he gradually discovers that there is a limit to the attack ability of this A-level Muji ninjutsu, Spiral Pill.
Immediately, Watergate thought of something.
"Speaking of which, the Thunder Escape Nature Change Ninjutsu that Kakashi showed in the mission before is just the opposite of my Spiral Pill."
One is the change in the nature of chakra.
One is the chakra morphological change.
Watergate's eyes lit up, if it was in the spiral pill, what would become of the change in nature?
Kakashi needs help with this.
Use my Spiral Pill and his information on the nature change principle of the Thunder Ninjutsu to exchange it. Watergate thought to himself.
Although he didn't participate in Lei Dun, he majored in Feng Dun, but Lei Dun is only a kind of change in nature, and there must be something in common.
And as a leading teacher, it seems a bit unreasonable not to teach some stunts to the disciples.
โ
"I'll let you catch those rats, what kind of excitement are you going to go to the country of grass?"
After Ayane returned, Shiraishi asked this question as soon as he saw her.
To be honest, Ayane's private actions can't be said to have directly disrupted his deployment, but it also scared him.
Fortunately, it was best that there were no accidents, and the matter on the side of the Oni Country was not exposed, and Ayane returned safe and sound.
"I see."
Ayane stared at Shiraishi for three seconds, then suddenly sighed and said this.
Know?
Know what?
Shiraishi sat on the chair with a blank expression, not knowing what Ayane meant by this.
Soon, he understood.
Ayane, who was standing in front, suddenly untied the ties around the waist of the kimono, and the fabric on her shoulders slipped off, revealing her snow-white collarbone.
Without the restraint of clothing, it seemed to be even more turbulent, full of suffocating oppressive force.
"Wait, youโwhy are you suddenly undressing?"
"Aren't you going to punish me? Come on, then. โ
Ayane sat in a duck position, with her back to Shiraishi, her back was white, and she looked pitiful, as if she was a weak little white rabbit who was bullied by a bullie.
"I can't resist you anyway. So, whether it's with a whip or a rope, I'm ready for that. โ
As she spoke, whips and ropes actually appeared beside her.
"Why are you even preparing props in advance?"
Engage in intimate and interactive games with female ninjas in white knee-length socks, although they are tempting.
But this is a serious and serious office, and as the military minister of the Oni Country, the newly promoted official in charge of the military affairs of a country will not be unreasonable and unashamed to act in such a place.
"Ahem, anyway, put on your clothes first."
"Not coming?"
"The devil wants it."
"This is a rare opportunity to punish me in a logical way."
Shiraishi refused to be punished, and Ayane stood up with a little dissatisfaction and slowly put on her clothes.
"I'm talking about business."
Shiraishi sighed.
It's hard enough to deal with Liuli at night this time.
During the day, I have to run between the office and the laboratory, and I often don't get enough sleep.
Therefore, the woman in the honeymoon period is really scary.
If it goes on like this, I feel that my waist can't support it.
It seems that it is necessary to develop drugs that strengthen the ability of the lower back.
"Since there was no trouble this time, I'll let you go for the time being. However, don't act like this next time, I'm the one who wipes your ass in the back. โ
"Don't you have to deal with the rest of the parts?"
โโฆโฆโ
The word 'well' jumped out of Baishi's eyebrows, and he seemed a little unbearable.
Seeing Shiraishi's hatred itching his teeth, and his helpless appearance that he had nothing to do, Ayane said with a smile: "Okay, just a joke to liven up the atmosphere." I've brought you a gift. โ
As she spoke, Ayane took out a scroll and made a gesture to unseal it with one hand.
In Shiraishi's surprised eyes, the scroll spread out automatically, and along with the white smoke appeared an arm covered in blood scabs.
"It's ......"
"Danzo's severed arm. I wanted to get rid of him, but that Flying Thunder God technique of the Bo Feng Shui Gate was too fast, and his reaction nerves were simply a monster. โ
If it weren't for the fact that he had white eyes and strengthened his physical ability with the Immortal Chakra, I'm afraid that battle would not have been so easy.
Even so, in the posture of full liberation, the speed of nerve reaction can only be equal to his.
Ayane knows that Mizumon is the kind of 'superman' who is born to react quickly.
In the ninja profession, it is only a matter of time before such a genius does not fall halfway and becomes the center of the conversation.
"That's why I asked the Shadow Dancer to go to you. That guy's nervous reflexes, combined with the convenient space-time ninjutsu of the Flying Thunder God, are indeed extremely difficult. The guy from Miaomu Mountain really left me with a huge problem. โ
Speaking of this, Shiraishi snorted coldly.
On the night of the defection, he understood how difficult it would be for Watergate's superhuman nervous reflexes to continue to grow with the elusive Flying Thunder God's technique.
"And that Maite Dai, who is even stronger than you said before, although he has the blessing of the secret medicine, Konoha is estimated to have also cultivated him."
"After all, that was a few months ago, and of course there will be discrepancies. The high-level of Konoha is not a fool, and when they find such a special talent, of course, they spend their blood to cultivate it. But it's not a big problem, the Ninja World War is a matter for the five major powers, and we don't need to get involved in it. โ
Although there are many excellent ninjas in Konoha, there are also many outstanding talents in the rest of the ninja villages.
Even if Konoha wants to win, he will definitely lose his vitality.
In the next seven or eight years, Shiraishi was not worried that Konoha would come specifically to find trouble for him.
And when that time comes, maybe he won't be afraid of Konoha's power.
Ruri and Ayane are both top-notch combat power comparable to the level of the Five Shadows, and the combat power of themselves and many clones, combined with the combat power, is not a problem to deal with a Five Shadows.
Seven or eight years later, after the outstanding talents of the Uchiha, Hinata, and Uzumaki clans grow up, there will be more and more top-notch combat power.
Therefore, Shiraishi is not very worried about Konoha's post-war settling.
He was worried about something elseโ
Madara Uchiha and Hakuju's problem.
It's just that because of the deterrent power of this name, Shiraishi doesn't plan to face Madara Uchiha head-on until he is fully prepared.
As long as the white absolute is cut off, the Uchiha Madara's intelligence system collapses, so that he can't obtain information from the outside world, and slowly grinds him to death is the safest way.
Of course, how to implement it depends on how Madara responds, and it is not the same.
"So, have you disposed of those white absolutes?"
Shiraishi asked about Ayane's progress these days.
"Although a lot of things have been handled, there are also a lot of missing feelings, and they are hiding deeper and deeper."
Ayane's answer was not what Shiraishi expected.
"It's expected, although you showed up without permission this time, which disrupted the deployment here, but if you use it properly, it can also be a place to use. And ......"
Shiraishi said.
"And what?"
"Madara Uchiha's purpose, if it was as expected, should be a tailed beast. But now the tailed beasts have fallen into the hands of Konoha and other great ninja villages, and the only one that is not in the hands of the great ninja villages is only the seven tails of Taki's village in the country of Taki. I've sent someone to break into the interior of Takikuin Village to act as an eyeliner, and if something goes wrong, I'll react to this side. โ
"What about Uchiha Obito's problem?"
"An old man with limited mobility, he needs a spokesperson who meets his ideals. It can only be said that stupid people are easy to control. So, the next thing is to dispose of the white Jedi around Uchiha Obito. I want to see what kind of response Madara Uchiha will do if the white Jedi around the ideal puppet is disposed of. โ
"Do you want me to catch these rats again?"
"No, don't worry about it just yet. Plan slowly, determine the route, and keep the risk of accidents along the way. Dealing with this kind of old and sophisticated guy, the slightest carelessness will fall into the trap. The same mistake, Madara Uchiha doesn't make twice. Now no matter how we look, we can only find Bai Jue, but we can't find where he himself is. โ
And as long as Madara himself can't be found, there is no point in eliminating more Hakuju.
Therefore, the elimination of the White Absolute is not the goal, how to find the location of the Mada body through the line of the White Absolute is the key.
Until then, it is necessary to be well prepared for battle, and improving your strength is also an important part of the plan.
"It's just right that you're back now, and I urgently need your white-eyed help now."
"Assist with what?"
"Draw a map."
Shiraishi said with a serious expression.
"Drawing a map?"
"Yes. I'm very useful for this, and I want to understand the topography of each region of the Oni Country. โ
"Are you going to set up a large laboratory?"
Ayane asked.
"No, it's a more important place than a manufacturing lab. I intend to build a country within a state, just like Loulan. But the country within a country I built was a bit special. This nation within a nation, from officials to civilians, are all 'newborn humans' who have mastered the energy of nature. This plan, for the time being, I will call it the 'Paradise Project'. โ
Shiraishi is not sure what will happen if the natural energy system suddenly flows into the world.
Therefore, he wants to set up a special 'peach source', which can also be said to be an important experimental area for all human beings who use natural energy and how to form a stable social system.
Chakra's system has caused some deformed development in the ninja world.
The importance of civilians is grossly overlooked, or rather, the power of ninjas creates a serious 'wealth and poverty' inequality with ordinary people.
The natural energy system, on the other hand, can shorten the gap between the 'rich and the poor' of all people.
What the consequences of this will be, Shiraishi does not know, nor can he predict, let alone know whether the birth of such a world system will usher in new vitality or destruction.
Therefore, this experimental plan, which is tentatively defined as 'Taoyuan', has the meaning of birth.
It is also a crucial step in reforming the world.
Choose a good area, invest in the people, how to ensure the concealment of this 'peach source', as well as guardians, etc., more complex issues that have not yet been thought of must be improved in advance.
The warm-up phase before the program starts alone can take several years to prepare.
