"Tsunade-sama, Tsunade-sama!"

Shizune runs down the wooden hallway of the inn as she opens the door to her room and calls out to Tsunade who is sleeping in the room.

"It's a big deal, Tsunade-sama!"

didn't care about Tsunade, who was sleeping, and directly woke her up from her sleep.

"What, it's silent, it's noisy here early in the morning, can't you let me sleep for a while?"

Tsunade rubbed his eyes and glanced at the sun that had just risen outside the window, and the expression on his face was slightly dissatisfied.

"Now isn't the time to talk about such things, is it?"

"What's wrong? I kept shouting that something big was not good...... Is the end of the world? ”

Tsunade didn't look like he was awake, and was about to lie down and get some sleep.

"Please be serious, Tsunade-sama, something big has happened in the village!"

Shizune's face was serious, and she pulled Tsunade's arm to prevent her from lying down.

Tsunade frowned: "I said you......"

Seeing Shizuki's extremely serious face, it didn't seem like he was joking.

Tsunade was a little more sober, and instead of directly asking Shizune what was going on, he stood up and walked towards the outside of the room.

"Tsunade-sama, what are you doing?"

"Wait for me here, I'll go out and buy a newspaper."

"Newspapers? At this time......"

Before he could speak, Tsunade's figure had disappeared from the corridor outside.

Shizune sighed helplessly, and waited quietly in the room for Tsunade to come back from buying the newspaper.

He didn't wait long for Mute to wait, and after about a few minutes, Tsunade walked in from outside with a newspaper.

As soon as she entered the room, she walked to the cabinet in the corner, opened the drawer, and took out a piece of paper.

"This is a lottery ticket that Tsunade-sama bought a while ago, right? What do you want to do with this? ”

Mute had a puzzled look on his face.

"To me, this is an artifact of good fortune."

Tsunade replied with a solemn face.

Then she picked up the lottery ticket and stiffened against the winning numbers published in the newspaper.

"Full? All in between!? ”

Shizune's eyes widened.

Seeing that the numbers of the lottery were exactly the same as the winning numbers published in the newspaper, it was the first time she had seen Tsunade with such a big reward after following Tsunade for so long.

Because Tsunade usually wins the lottery, he really doesn't have a chance to meet.

"I probably know what kind of bad news you mean by 'big things are bad'."

Tsunade smiled bitterly.

For her, winning the lottery means that something bad is happening.

The bigger the winnings, the worse things get.

"The winning amount worth 150 million taels is really a catastrophe."

Tsunade sighed.

"Tsunade-sama......"

Tsunade waved his hand and said:

"Forget it, no matter how bad things are, they can't get any worse. Tell me, what's going on in the village? ”

Tsunade was mentally prepared for something bad to happen in the village.

It's just that she can't think of anything bad happening in the village.

It can't be that Yunyin Village broke through the eastern defense line of the Fire Country and directly invaded Konoha Headquarters, right?

"Orochimaru-sama has defected."

Shizune took a deep breath and told Tsunade the news of Orochimaru's defection.

The news has already spread in the major countries, but they are now on vacation and mingling in small and remote countries, so they will get the news a little later.

After Shizune finished speaking, he glanced at Tsunade with some concern.

After all, Orochimaru is Tsunade's friend from childhood to adulthood, and he is also a companion who was born and died together...... This incident happened, and the blow to Tsunade can be imagined.

Sure enough, after hearing the news, Tsunade's mind was buzzing, and it was blank.

"Y-What do you say? Orochimaru...... He defected to the village? What are you kidding......"

It's not that Tsunade doesn't believe it, but this kind of thing is really unbelievable to her.

Suddenly, my heart felt like it had been torn apart, and it tingled.

This feeling of betrayal reminded her of that betrayal five or six years ago.

The student he had always trusted suddenly betrayed the village in this way.

Now Orochimaru has also embarked on this path...... Let Tsunade really want to ask Orochimaru in person, why did he do this.

It's just that reason tells her that there must be something going on here.

It's impossible for a guy like Orochimaru to betray the village for no reason, and there must be something else hidden in it.

"It's true, Tsunade-sama. Orochimaru-sama used ninjas from the same village as human experiments, murdering the lives of many innocent people, and after the incident was revealed, he fled from the village. Now he is the same as Shiraishi's predecessors, an extremely dangerous S-class defection ninja. ”

Mute also sighed with a complicated expression.

"Damn! What the hell is that bastard of Orochimaru, doing? ”

Tsunade didn't hesitate to punch the ground.

With a click, the floor of the entire hotel began to shake, and an exaggerated crack extended into the wall of the courtyard, until the wall was neatly split in half, and it still did not stop extending.

Mute swallowed his saliva, if this kind of powerful fist hits the human body, he will be killed by a punch.

"Where's Mr. Ape Fei? Why did he let Orochimaru leave the village? ”

Tsunade's eyes were filled with anger at the moment.

"Hokage-sama...... I heard that he was intercepting Orochimaru-sama...... Hurt. ”

"That old thing!"

Tsunade roared angrily, and Shizune was also frightened by Tsunade's angry expression at the moment.

It's the first time she's seen Tsunade angry to such an extent.

When Shiraishi betrayed Konoha in the first place, he was not angry to such an extent.

"That, Tsunade-sama......"

Shizune tries to dissuade Tsunade from calming down, but finds that she doesn't know how to dissuade Tsunade.

"If he wanted to stop Orochimaru, how could Orochimaru hurt him and escape from the village? What's going on in his head? ”

Regardless of the reason for Orochimaru's defection, no matter how you look at human experiments, it doesn't look like Orochimaru's cautious style.

What angered Tsunade the most was that it was Orochimaru's intention to betray Konoha and the indecision of his teacher Sarutobi.

Doesn't he know what a terrible disaster Orochimaru will cause Konoha to suffer once he escapes from the Fire Country?

Orochimaru is different from Shiraishi, he is a real high-level of Konoha.

His knowledge, skills, and intelligence will bring great losses to Konoha.

Injured by Orochimaru, powerless to stop ...... No matter how you look at it, it looks like he's shirking responsibility, but he's the Hokage of Konoha.

In the face of such a serious defection, how can you abolish the public for personal reasons?

Shizune didn't dare to say a word on the side, and under Tsunade's anger, his body trembled again and again.

What a terrifying murderous aura!

At this moment, Mute seemed to see a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood in front of him.

After all, it's three forbearances, even if it's usually a big grin, it's definitely a very terrible thing to get serious.

Especially in the case of such a fury.

"Let's go! Mute! ”

"Let's go? Where to go, Tsunade-sama? ”

"Whatever, as long as it's not the Fire Country."

Seeing that the village where his grandfather had left behind had been ruined to such an extent, Tsunade only felt an infinite coldness surrounding him, suffocating to the point where he couldn't breathe.

She knew that the shadows of Konoha were probably already on their way to find her, conveying the orders of the three generations of Hokage to let her return to the village immediately.

Orochimaru defected, and only by letting her, who is also a third ninja, return to the village, can she stabilize the floating hearts of the people in the village and suppress some dissatisfied voices.

Because she is the granddaughter of the original Hokage, the purest heir to the will of fire in Konoha.

Two ninja wars, a medical ninja who saved countless lives for Konoha and made outstanding contributions to the Konoha medical system.

It can be said that her influence is the most powerful one among the three ninjas.

"Huh? Is that really good? The village is in need of Tsunade-sama's help right now. ”

"I'd like to, but I can't do anything when I go back now, it's just going to make Konoha more and more messy. Out of sight, out of mind. ”

Tsunade smiled wryly and shook his head.

She was afraid that if she went back, she couldn't help but directly confront her teacher, Ape Fei Ri, and even used the influence of the Thousand Hands Clan to rule off the illegal dark department of the Roots.

Even if you can't adjugate the roots, you have to make huge restrictions on the roots, and you can't let the group move freely.

And these things are precisely the strategies that his teacher Ape Fei Ri is most reluctant to implement.

Tuan Zang has made so many mistakes, and she is still able to hold a high-level position, and her teacher Ape Fei Ri can be said to have contributed a lot.

If she can't do this, she can only compromise with this old man named Enshi when she returns to Konoha at this moment.

"Alas, Watergate died too suddenly......"

When Tsunade said this, his eyes also fell lonely.

If Watergate hadn't died, Konoha might have been in a different situation now.

She could already guess that the roots of Danzang leading him must now be flying in Konoha again.

Without the suppression of Watergate, it would have been impossible for her old teacher to suppress Tuan Zang.

This was true in the past, and it is still so.

Knowing that he would do nothing when he went back, he would be used as a gunman......

At least the last dignity is to be preserved. That's what Tsunade thinks at the moment.

"Watergate seniors...... I heard about the Nine-Tails Riot, and it seems to have something to do with Shiraishi's predecessors. I don't know if it's true. ”

Hearing Tsunade mention the water gate, Mute remembered Shiraishi instead.

Tsunade shook his head and didn't say much, the Nine-Tails riot, there are too many doubts about this matter, it may have something to do with his student.

"Let's go. Later, when the shadows come, it will be difficult to get out. ”

Tsunade simply took the package, greeted mute, and walked towards the door.

As for the winning ticket, it was left to the owner of the inn as her repair cost for the destruction of the hotel.

◎

"Tsunade...... Not planning to come back? ”

Masumi Aami, who was sitting in the office of the director of the pharmacy department of Konoha Hospital, got the information conveyed by Kakashi.

The shadows searched for Tsunade, one of the three ninjas, to no avail, and Tsunade seemed to have deliberately avoided the Konoha shadows, and now he is nowhere to be found.

It is not difficult to see that Tsunade's refusal to return to the village is extremely resolute.

As for the reason for this, Asami Masumi doesn't know much about it.

However, all she cared about was whether Tsunade would return to Konoha, and now she was relieved to know that Tsunade would not return to Konoha at this time.

Now is the critical moment for her to lay out the Konoha Hospital, as well as the entire Konoha Ninja System 'network', if Tsunade returns to the village at such a time, it will not be difficult to return to the helm of the Konoha Hospital with Tsunade's identity and influence, and the plan on the side of the Konoha Hospital may be delayed.

Tsunade refuses to return to the village, so she can take advantage of the opportunity.

The network she had set up in Konoha was always too fragile.

She is in charge of the Konoha Hospital, and there is already Kakashi in the dark department, and there are many places to be arranged next.

The Intelligence Department, the Torture Department, the Ninja School, the Enchantment Department and other departments must constantly insert people into it.

That being said, it can be difficult to place people.

When Shiraishi left Konoha, there weren't many spies in Konoha who were arranged, and there were only four people in the middle and upper positions, including her and Kakashi.

And none of the four of them had access to the secrets of Konoha's true core.

Just then, there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in."

Asami Masumi regained her usual indifferent expression and said to the people outside the door.

A male medical ninja in a white coat walked in.

"Director Asami, this is this month's drug usage."

He put a large stack of papers on the desk in front of Asami Masumi and said respectfully.

"Thank you for your hard work, I'll come back later."

"Is Director Asami going out at this time?"

The medical ninja asked in surprise.

Asami Masumi nodded.

"Well, go out for a walk, I'll be back soon."

For this, the male medical ninja has no suspicions, as long as he can complete the statistics of drug use during working hours, as the director level of the hospital, Asami Masumi, the usual work can indeed be more relaxed.

Leaving Konoha Hospital, Asami Masumi is going to meet someone.

This person was not a subordinate spy that Shiraishi had personally planted in Konoha, but a talent she had unearthed in Konoha the previous year, before the fourth Hokage ascended the throne.

Saying that it is a talent is actually an overestimate, because in her opinion, the other party is actually very ordinary and ordinary from any point of view.

But it is precisely because of this ordinary and ordinary nature that he can exert his outstanding talents in the field of espionage.

This may be the only shining point in him.

Walk towards the meeting point that has been agreed in advance, which is a relatively secluded wooded area near the park.

Usually only students from the ninja school come here to play ninja games.

In a clearing in the woods, a man with a five-pointed star hairstyle stood there nervously, waiting for something.

"You're so nervous, can't you get used to something like this?"

After Asami Masumi arrived here, she didn't make a single footstep sound, and stood behind the man, and this sentence sounded coldly behind the man.

The man was also taken aback, and hurriedly turned around, and saw the familiar face of Asami Masumi, and only then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Miss Asa, Asaami ......"

The man was a little stumbling, and when he saw Asami Masumi's slightly displeased face, there seemed to be murderous flashing in his eyes, and he quickly changed his words and said, "Asami-sama." ”

Asami Masumi's face softened at this time, but she still didn't give the man a good look: "After giving you so much time to think about it, you still haven't made up your mind to really do things for me, Haruno?" ”

The man surnamed Haruno said with a wry smile: "It's hard for a person to make up his mind right away, right?" ”

Because the task given to him by Asami Masumi can't be said to be unfavorable to Konoha, but it must have ulterior motives.

For example, let him collect information about the people around him, and listen to their personalities, abilities, hobbies, and other information without leaking.

He is a low-level ninja, plus he has a fairly cheerful personality, so even if he is in his twenties, he is still a middle ninja, and his popularity is still there.

Asami Masumi thought that even a guy of this level would come in handy sooner or later, so she used some means to make him succumb.

"Don't forget, who saved your wife in the hospital and kept their mother and daughter safe."

“……”

The man's face turned cloudy, and he finally sighed.

"I know, as long as I don't make a move on them, I'll follow orders."

"As I expected, you are indeed a man who cares about the family."

Gu family?

The corners of the man's mouth were slightly bitter.

When his wife was giving birth, she encountered an extremely rare medical accident, and it was the woman in front of her who saved the lives of his wife and daughter.

She should have been grateful, but this woman also took advantage of this incident to exercise control over him.

It didn't matter to him himself, but when he thought of his wife and daughter waiting to be fed at home, he would be threatened with some injustice...... One can only succumb to such a puppet fate.

"As long as you work honestly, the organization will not treat you badly. The maintenance of your wife and daughter will be reimbursed by the organization. ”

"Yes."

What else can be done?

He's just an insignificant shinobi in Konoha Village, and what he can usually boast about is that he has relatively good connections.

It is precisely because of his connections that he will be targeted by this woman and become a pawn in her hands, and he is the kind that cannot be resisted.

As for the organization...... He didn't know who Masumi Asami was.

I don't know what the organization is, how many people are in it, how much strength it has, and to what extent it has infiltrated Konoha.

He only knew one thing, the financial resources of the organization were amazing, and it must not be an idle organization that was established casually.

Moreover, for a low-level person like him, he only needs to follow orders, and the rest of the things do not need to be considered.

From the man's hand, he took an unopened file bag, which was full of information that the man had worked hard for months to gather.

These Konoha ninja information are not high-strength ninjas, they are all the lowest middle ninjas and lower ninjas, and even some ordinary passers-by.

"I understand how to collect information about ninjas, why do you even need to collect information about those villagers?"

The man looked at Asami Masumi in confusion.

"Those villagers may not be ninjas, but their husbands and wives may be ninjas. When necessary, they will also become the eyes of the organization. ”

Asami Masumi explained a little.

"Haruno, you can go back. Based on this information, I will dig up some talents in Konoha that can be used. When the time comes, it's up to you to make the contact. If you fail, you should understand the consequences. ”

The man's face changed slightly, nodded, and turned to leave.

Seeing the man leave, Asami Masumi snorted softly, put on the thick-rimmed glasses placed on her chest, and her simple face was slightly cold.

"This guy, it seems that he still needs to be trained strictly."

She was well aware that the man had not completely surrendered to her and that there was a risk of betrayal.

Although she can immediately disarm the threat before the other party betrays, it will take a long time to find a suitable person to monitor the lower echelons of Konoha again. She doesn't have that much time to waste.

"Haruno Zhao, I hope you can understand the current affairs."

◎

"Mr. Shiraishi, why are you so happy?"

Entering the laboratory, Lin saw Shiraishi smiling and reading a scroll, not knowing what she was happy about.

When Shiraishi saw Rin walk in, he didn't hide it and said, "According to the information from Konoha that Masumi did a better job in Konoha Hospital than I imagined. She and Kakashi are bright and dark, and it can be said that they are a perfect match. ”

Orochimaru defected, and Tsunade did not return to Konoha, which was a joy for Shiraishi.

Whatever Orochimaru's reason for defecting to Konoha was, it meant that Konoha's strength was further weakened.

Thinking about it carefully, Shiraishi was a little frightened by the various changes in Konoha over the years.

Ever since his teacher, Sakushige Hachiki, committed suicide, Konoha felt like he had been cursed by something, and almost nothing good had happened.

The four generations of Hokage died in battle, Orochimaru defected, Tsunade refused to return to the village, Shimura Danzou seemed to be plotting something in secret, and the influence of the three generations of Hokage weakened again, and he could no longer control most of Konoha's voice as before.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the spies he arranged in Konoha to expand his power.

And Asami Masumi didn't waste such a great opportunity, stretched out her fangs to all levels of Konoha and perfectly completed the task he assigned.

"Masumi? Konoha Hospital? Could it be that Mr. Shiraishi is talking about the predecessors of Asami Masumi? ”

Rin connected the key words in Shiraishi's mouth, and it was easy to think of a medical ninja senior in Konoha Hospital that he knew when he was in Konoha.

"That's right."

Rin knew Asami Masumi, and Shiraishi was not surprised.

"Is she also from Mr. Shiraishi's side?"

"When I met her, it was just a chance. However, she is indeed a very good medical ninja, and she has been praised by Tsunade Sensei more than once when I was still in ninja school. ”

"In this way, Konoha's hospital and the dark department have the manpower that you have planted in Shiraishi-sensei. It's exaggerated. I wonder if the rest of Konoha has also been infiltrated? ”

Rin was secretly frightened by Shiraishi's layout in Konoha.

Kakashi, who works in the dark department, doesn't care, with the performance of Asami Masumi in Konoha Hospital, it is likely that he is in a high position in Konoha Hospital at this moment.

"It's still early, Kakashi's entry into the shadows was just a surprise. Because of my professional relationship in Konoha at the beginning, it was more convenient to have people in Konoha Hospital. Of course, the same goes for ninja schools. ”

As for the rest of the torture department, the intelligence department and other important departments, there are no suitable personnel to install them.

"Looking at it this way, Konoha's threat to the country of demons has almost been lifted."

"It's not all lifted yet, Konoha is far stronger than you think. The real main force of Konoha is actually in those ninja clans. They are the most powerful force in Konoha. The three ninjas are strong, and they are only three people, while those ninjas are in groups. ”

Shiraishi shook his head.

It is a fact that Konoha's power has weakened, but the current Konoha should not be underestimated.

The team left behind by the original Hokage is too solid, and the collapse of the Konoha mansion is by no means something that can be completed overnight.

But some actions in the future can indeed be presumptuous, and you don't have to take Konoha feelings too seriously.

"Speaking of which, how is the cultivation of the technique of communicating with the tailed beast?"

Shiraishi put down the scroll in his hand and began to inquire about Lin's progress in cultivating the forbidden arts.

"I'm here to tell Mr. Shiraishi about this, after these months of practice, I have already mastered the art of entering and seeing the Tailed Beast to communicate with the Tailed Beast."

Lynn replied with a smile.

This also means that she can practice the Perfect Human Pillar Force at any time.

After hearing this, Bai Shi also nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then let's officially start next week." I'll have the ninjas of Obito and the Uzumaki clan on your side to assist you. ”

When Lin was practicing the Perfect Human Pillar Force, the tailed beast power in her body was likely to go out of control.

The ninjas of the Obito and Uzumaki clans can use the Kaleidoscope Writing Wheel Eye and Sealing Technique to avoid the risk of tailed beasts going berserk.

"I see."

Lin gently brushed the hair from her ears and smiled slightly.

"In addition, you have to be prepared to fight the Tailed Beast for a long time, and make the Tailed Beast succumb, it is still too difficult for you now. Do you think you can do it in three years? ”

"Three years?" Lynn muttered to herself, and then her eyes showed a determined color: "I will try to overcome it." ”

"It's good to have faith. According to my reasoning, the longer you fight the Tailed Beast with this technique, the lower the probability of success. If you can't defeat the tailed beast in your body within three years, the cultivation of the Perfect Human Pillar Force will end in failure. ”

Shiraishi wasn't lying.

Any forbidden technique is risky.

Three years is Lin's best cultivation time for the Perfect Human Pillar Force.

Once this time is missed, it means that Lin says goodbye to the perfect person.

"In the following years, the Oni Nation gradually began to expand externally. If you can become a perfect person at that time, it will also play a vital role in this plan. ”

This is something that Shiraishi cares about.

With the current size of the Ghost Country, it is actually quite saturated.

If you want to continue to grow, you can only expand externally and touch the interests of those who have vested interests.

At first, it will be a little contradiction, and then due to the gap in system and technology, it will give rise to even greater contradictions, exacerbate the conflict, and finally the war will come and redistribute the benefits.

Change is never about everyone sitting together peacefully and amicably, enjoying a peaceful afternoon tea party, but a trial of blood and fire!
