Chapter 21 Layout
Back at the Root Headquarters, the Oil Maiden Ryoma has been waiting there for a long time.
"Danzo-sama."
Seeing Tuan Zang walk into the room, the oil girl Ryoma greeted him respectfully.
Tuan Zang waved his hand, sat down on a chair, picked up a copy of the information next to him, and read it.
"Still can't find out the specifics of that organization?"
"No, Orochimaru keeps this secret very strictly."
Ryoma, the oil girl, shook her head.
and Orochimaru continue to cooperate, and among the roots, only a very small number of people know about it.
It's just that since Orochimaru left Konoha, his interest in working with the roots has decreased a lot.
For this, the oil girl Ryoma can't find any good way, Orochimaru has already left Konoha, and naturally he can't use some means to restrain his development like before.
The current Orochimaru can be said to be high in the sky and let the birds fly.
While looking at the information, Danzo tapped his fingers lightly on the tabletop, as if he was also considering the gains and losses of cooperating with Orochimaru.
Although Orochimaru's ambiguous attitude made him very dissatisfied, considering the importance of Orochimaru to the roots, he still couldn't take some extreme measures.
Telling Orochimaru about joining an organization is also to distract Hizai's attention. The dark side wants to catch Orochimaru, but it's not that easy.
If Orochimaru was really caught by the shadows so easily, Danzou would only be disappointed by it.
"When that guy from Orochimaru left Konoha, he secretly learned a lot of forbidden techniques on the Book of Seals, so you can continue to cooperate with him, but you also have to maintain a certain degree of vigilance."
"Yes." Oil Maiden Ryoma nodded, and then asked, "Uchiha Itachi's matter, is there still no way to solve it?" ”
"The restraint on Hichiha's side is very tight, even if it is revealed that Mizuki Yuzuki has a problem, he has not considered the idea of changing teams for Uchiha Itachi."
Rather, it is better to arrange Itachi under the command of a jealous Konoha ninja, which is more convenient for Hisachi to control Itachi's unpolished weapon.
"It's weird."
Ryoma, the oil girl, frowned.
Although the strength of Mizuki teak is good, but because of his strong jealousy, the things that can be taught to Itachi must only be some inconsequential things.
It stands to reason that the three generations of Hokage Hitoshi, who learned of all this, would immediately take action to thoroughly investigate Mizuki Yuzuki, and then transfer Itachi to another team for training to enhance Itachi's sense of belonging to the village.
You know, since the time of the ninja school, the side of Root and the three generations, I have been observing Uchiha Itachi.
It's just that the roots dug into this genius earlier.
Thanks to Danzo's sensitivity to 'darkness', he could tell at a glance that Itachi belonged to the people on the root side.
If it is to prevent the roots, then it is better to transfer the ferret to reliable people as soon as possible.
However, the three generations of Hokage did not do this, so the truth behind this matter is intriguing.
"Uchiha stops the water."
After Danzang closed his eyes, he thought of something, and his eyes opened suddenly, flashing a sharp light.
"Uchiha stop water? That instantaneous water stop? ”
"Yes. He is a descendant of Kagami, and Hizai has long been in contact with him. In our intelligence, Itachi and Shisui also seem to have a good relationship. ”
Therefore, it doesn't matter if Mizuki Yuzuki doesn't train Itachi seriously or not, the three generations of Hokage have already arranged candidates to guide Itachi.
Guided by the people of the Uchiha clan, it is easier to control Itachi in his hands.
Even if he knew that there was a problem with Mizuki Yukage, the three generations of Hokage would not be in a hurry.
For him, it doesn't matter if there is a problem with Mizuki Yuzuki, and a thorough investigation is just a cover-up for other actions, and the person who really teaches Itachi is the Uchiha ninja who has the name of 'Instantaneous Water Stop'.
"If that's the case, it's a bit of a problem."
Instantaneously stopping the water, in the root intelligence system, is definitely a tricky and troublesome guy.
His teleportation technique is very special, and it is quite fast and powerful, very similar to the original Konoha White Fang and Yellow Flash, and they are both powerful ninjas who can win with speed.
What's more, the other party also has a writing wheel eye, and it is said that the attainment of illusion is even higher than the instantaneous technique.
If you only focus on his instantaneous body technique and ignore his chakra eye illusion, you will definitely suffer a big loss.
As an old-timer, but against the Uchiha to stop the water, the oil girl Ryoma is not sure at all.
This made the oil girl Ryoma very discouraged, and the newcomers of Konoha have always been monsters.
But the Uchiha Ruri, Hinata Ayane, Wave Feng Mizumon and others, and then the current Hachiki Kakashi, Uchiha Shisui, and the Uchiha Itachi who has not grown up......
The Uchiha clan accounted for three.
The oil girl Ryoma secretly said to herself, the Uchiha clan is really too powerful.
After the decline of the Thousand Hands Clan, the most powerful ninja clan in Konoha was the Uchiha.
With Uchiha as a backer, contacting Uchiha Itachi is actually a gamble.
"Among the younger generation, the only person who can deal with the instantaneous water stop is Kakashi."
Tuan Zang nodded, after all, he is a descendant of the mirror, and he has received a strict ninja education since he was a child, so he is naturally not comparable to ordinary Uchiha ninjas.
It's a pity that such a talent does not belong to the roots, but stands on the side of the three generations of Hokage.
"Even Kakashi, I'm afraid the odds aren't great."
"Kakashi is an important pawn, and you can't act rashly at this time."
"I understand that now is not the time to use Kakashi."
"Well, is there anything else in the village that can recruit people to get into the roots?"
Tuan Zang asked, intentionally or unintentionally.
Because of the previous Hyuga incident, the root is now being closely watched by the shadows.
Even so, the roots cannot sit idly by and continue to focus on expanding their power.
The roots are now in high demand.
There is an urgent need to absorb fresh blood to come in.
When Tuan Zang mentioned this, the oil girl Ryoma suddenly remembered something and answered: "Among the oil girl clan, there is a special descendant, he has an unusual insect physique. ”
"Who is it?"
The oil girl clan is the home of the oil girl Ryoma.
It is also one of the few radicals in the oil girl family.
As one of the few powerful ninjas in the oil girl clan, the oil girl Ryoma also has a lot of authority over the oil girl clan, and it is easy to know what talents are in the clan.
But not everyone is eligible to join the root.
If you don't have that trait in your eyes, joining the root will only frame them.
What the roots need is the kind of talent with traits, otherwise, no matter how strong the talent is, the roots don't need it.
"The oil girl takes the root, he just entered school this year, and his body can accommodate nano-level poisonous insects, although the mastery is not very good, but the potential is very great."
"Do you have what it takes to join the roots?"
"Yes, his ability, even among the oil girl clan, is revered by many adults."
"Awe...... Is it? ”
Danzang muttered.
It's rare for a group of adults to be in awe of the power of a small child.
But if what the oil girl Ryoma said is true, then the little ghost named the oil girl takes the root has great potential.
"Wait until he graduates from the ninja school to recruit him, and he needs to pass the root assessment."
The roots hold the 'dark' of Konoha, and if they don't have the 'dark' qualities, then no matter how good the talent is, they won't be able to enter the root training.
Otherwise, not only will the subordinates be dissatisfied with the root and rebel against the superiors in a fierce way, but it will also bury such talents, causing Konoha to lose an excellent ninja.
"I see, I'll send someone to follow up."
Oil Girl Torigen is a member of the Oil Girl clan, and if Oil Girl Ryoma wants to send someone to follow up, it will not be as troublesome as following up Uchiha Itachi, and it will take a lot of procedures.
And pulling such a terrible imp into the roots, it will make some people in the clan feel at ease.
Such a special talent can only give full play to his strengths when he enters a special department.
Many ninja people don't like the root organization, but even if they don't like it anymore, they will regularly send talents to the root every year for special training.
◎
"Thank you for the information, Jiraiya-sama. We took our leave. ”
In a hotel in Yunokuni, the dark department bowed slightly to Jiraiya, and then left the place with his subordinates to continue the mission.
After the darkness left, Jiraiya touched his chin.
"Did the village notice about that organization too? I didn't expect Mr. Sarufei to act so quickly......"
Originally, he wanted to pass this information back to the village in the near future, but he didn't expect that Konoha had already taken action and sent out the dark department to carry out a search operation against the mysterious organization.
The reason is that there is a member of the group of Orochimaru in that organization.
In Zilai's opinion, it is impossible for a group of people to sit down and have a tea party in a friendly manner, and there must be some ulterior purpose.
It's just that the name of this organization, as well as their purpose, and how many members there are, have not been investigated clearly.
At the beginning, he wandered around the ninja world with the intention of investigating Orochimaru, and by the way, he collected information about Chiba Shiraishi and others, but he didn't expect to find the information of Chiba Shiraishi and others, and when he followed up Orochimaru, he found that he had joined a mysterious organization.
Joining his team is a very tricky puppeteer.
In the case of one-on-two, Zilai did not dare to make a rash move.
The strength of that puppet master is obviously the same level as Orochimaru, and in the end, he will definitely be defeated, and maybe his life will be in danger.
By now, for Orochimaru's return to Konoha, he has long since lost the slightest expectation.
He just wanted to know the secrets of the organization that Orochimaru had joined, and to figure out what they wanted to do in the ninja world.
This is very important for Konoha.
"Forget it, I don't have a clue for the time being, let's write quietly for a while."
Orochimaru naturally wants to continue to follow up, but the current follow-up has aroused Orochimaru's vigilance, and it is good to let the dark part of Konoha test the water for the time being.
Thinking of what was not yet finished, Jiraiya suddenly showed a lewd smile on his face.
His first masterpiece was officially released in March this year.
And the sales in the market exceeded his original expectations.
It made him feel that he was not alone.
On the road of pursuing a gentleman, he has countless like-minded gentleman companions.
It is precisely because of these like-minded companions that his first book can be so popular, earning a manuscript fee that he once dared not imagine in his life, which can be described as a gentleman writer who shocked the ninja world.
In this year's selection of the most popular writers in the ninja world, he is definitely the biggest dark horse this year.
Sure enough, the light of genius could not be concealed no matter what.
The experience of drawing on past materials is not useless.
It is precisely because of these colorful materials that he can write literature that shocks the ninja world.
For this, I am also proud of myself.
The first debut novel has been recognized by the field of ninja literature, and I also want to speed up the writing of the second book.
Strike while the iron is hot, that's the truth.
Just as Jiraiya was starting to think about the second book, there was a knock on the door of the room.
"What's the matter?"
Jiraiya walked to the door, opened the door, and saw a maid from the hotel, followed by several men in black suits, which made Jiraiya confused.
What is this for?
The maid said, "Mr. Jiraiya, these guests are here to find you. ”
"Looking for me?"
Zilai also looked at the few black-clothed people behind the maid, a little inexplicable.
I definitely don't know these people.
The maid nodded, and left.
"Mr. Jiraiya, I don't mind calling you that, do you?"
A man in black at the head asked with a smile.
"Ah, don't mind, that, please come in."
Jiraiya scratched his head, not quite sure what was the matter with these people coming to him.
However, the visitors were guests, and they still warmly received these people and let them come in and talk about things in detail.
"Excuse me."
Several men in black followed Zilai into the house.
Jilai also made tea for them, and then sat down.
"Tea, please."
"You're welcome, Mr. Jiraiya. It's really flattering to be able to have Mr. Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, receive it. ”
In this regard, Jiraiya did not show any surprise.
These people came to find him, they must have come prepared, and besides, he is very famous in the ninja world, and if you investigate it casually, you will know his basic information.
He also wanted to know what the purpose of these people was coming to him.
These people seem to be ordinary people with some force, not ninja background.
"It's okay, I'm interested in what you're here for, can you tell me?"
Generally speaking, it is a ninja who comes to look for him, and very few non-ninja personnel come to talk to him.
"Yes. Before that, let's introduce our identities, we are from the country of ghosts, under the Shion Flower Chamber of Commerce, and the staff of the Shion Flower Film Production Company. ”
"The land of ghosts? Movie studios? ”
Jiraiya's eyes widened slightly, a little incredible.
He has also heard of the strange changes in the country of ghosts in the past few years.
Before the Third Ninja War, the Shion Flower Chamber of Commerce in the Land of Oni was one of the giant chambers of commerce in the ninja world, with many companies under its umbrella and a wide range of design industries, which was jaw-dropping.
And in the third ninja war, the pharmaceutical company under the Shion Flower Chamber of Commerce rose up, making the wealth of the Shion Flower Chamber of Commerce more solid.
At present, the loan business of the Shion Flower Chamber of Commerce is almost all over the countries of the ninja world, and it is said that the Sand Hidden Village of the Land of the Wind has borrowed a large amount of development funds from the Shion Flower Chamber of Commerce.
And set up a special debt collector department, and it is also well-known in the ninja world.
There are also business dealings with many big businessmen in the Fire Country, and these big chambers of commerce that rival the wealth of the country can be said to be the guests of many countries.
Just inside Konoha, there are many branches established by the Aster Flower Shogun, designing pharmaceutical, food and other industries.
The people of such a large chamber of commerce came to look for themselves, which still surprised Zilai.
"That, if you want to cooperate with Konoha, it's better to go to my teacher, the third generation Hokage, and the cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce has always been the responsibility of the village."
Jiraiya thought that these people came to find him, and it was related to Konoha's cooperation.
But for such an important matter, he simply can't call the shots.
In terms of financial logistics, he was controlled by advisers Zhuan Koharu and Mito Menyan, and the decision to cooperate with foreign chambers of commerce was on his teacher Sarutobi.
There is no reason for him to participate in it, otherwise he will overstep his authority and be easily suspicious of the village.
"That's not the problem. Maybe we're not specific enough.,We're under the Aster Flower Chamber of Commerce.,The staff of the Shion Flower Film Production Company.,The purpose of us coming to Mr. Jiraiya is not to cooperate with Konoha.,The person to cooperate with is just Mr. Jiraiya himself.。 ”
So, it doesn't matter if you look for Konoha at all.
"Looking for my cooperation?"
"Film Company...... Have you heard of Mr. Jiraiya? ”
"I've heard that it seems to be a new industry that sprung up in the land of ghosts a year ago, and it seems to be very popular in neighboring countries."
"Mr. Jiraiya's intelligence collection is really extensive."
A gleam flashed in the eyes of the man in black.
Jiraiya scratched his head and smiled: "I just happen to know a little bit." ”
I really know a little bit.
Because the rise of the country of ghosts over the years is a bit abnormal, it has naturally attracted the attention of many people.
It's just that he just simply collected the information of the Oni Country, and his targets are still Orochimaru and the mysterious organization.
"That's why we're here, and we want to acquire the copyright to Mr. Jiraiya's work."
The man in black said solemnly.
"Copyright of authorship?"
Jiraiya blinked and understood, was it his previously officially published Virgo "Intimacy Paradise"?
"Yes, I had the pleasure of reading Mr. Jiraiya's book, and if it is adapted into a movie, I think it will be even more successful."
The man in black's non-fake expression made him interested.
"So you want to make a movie and show it on the screen?"
"Yes."
was affirmed by the man in black, and Zilai's eyes suddenly lit up.
The man in black also seemed to know what Jiraiya was thinking, and said with a wry smile: "Of course, some 'important' episodes we need to cut as appropriate. ”
"Intimacy Paradise", if you start from the perspective of love, is undoubtedly a very touching love story.
The point is that as the author, Jiraiya seems to be very interested in the aspect of sex, so there are a lot of private goods of Jiraiya himself mixed in.
This is also one of the important reasons why this book gathers a group of gentlemen and makes people want to stop.
"What, if that's the case, isn't there no essence in me at all?"
Zilai was also very dissatisfied after hearing this.
“……”
That kind of thing, you can't call it the essence at all, right?
Sure enough, the comments about a certain aspect of Zilai are not groundless, but factual.
If it weren't for the confirmation of the information, he wouldn't have believed that Jiraiya, who was a third ninja, could write such a delicate literary work.
It's just that in some places, the delicacy is too much.
"Thank you for your understanding. So, what does Mr. Jiraiya think? Want a win-win cooperation? ”
After listening to this, I began to think about it seriously.
It's not that he hasn't learned about the movie, because it is a new industry, so it is only popular in the vicinity of the country of ghosts, but he knows that with the full promotion of the Shion Flower Chamber of Commerce, it will soon spread to all countries in the ninja world.
The reason why they collaborate with themselves is because their work is one of the most popular works in recent years, and many of them are mainly young people.
In general, he can also get a good reward from the Oni Country, and the Oni Country also uses his popularity to better promote their film industry in the ninja world and collect funds.
It is estimated that the writers they are looking for are not only themselves, but also many people who are also in the layout.
"No problem, if it's a win-win cooperation, I have no reason to refuse. Is the contract ready? ”
Jiraiya figured it out and felt that if the country of ghosts could give him a good reward, it wasn't that he couldn't cooperate.
"Yes, Mr. Jiraiya, please take a look."
Seeing that Jiraiya agreed, the man in black breathed a sigh of relief, handed the contract that had been prepared to Jiraiya, and slowly waited for Jiraiya to finish reading.
……
"The land of ghosts?"
After seeing these people leave, Jiraiya touched his chin and made a thinking movement.
As a well-informed ninja who often travels the ninja world, he is also confident in his judgment and rarely makes mistakes.
Even if this is a big snake pill, Zilai is confident to overpower it.
He had a feeling that there was going to be some big move on the side of the Ghost Country.
If I'm not mistaken, a few years ago, the country of ghosts completed the military reform of military integration, and the soldiers composed of ninjas and ordinary people were reorganized, although because it was a neutral country and the special environment of the country of ghosts, it did not cause any great turmoil.
However, through the Third Ninja World War, the commercial strength of the Oni Country gradually became prominent in the environment of the damage of various major powers.
Not only the country of ghosts, but also the country of neutral railways, but also made a lot of money from the sale of ninja tools.
It's just that compared to the Iron Country, the industry of the Ghost Country is too diverse.
The funds collected in the war are also even larger, which is incomparable to the Iron Country.
"I remember that Tsunade used to do some information reports about the country of ghosts, and Watergate told me something similar in the past......"
I also calmed down.
I noticed the country of ghosts, probably at that time.
It's a pity that the plan to study the country of ghosts has been in a semi-abandoned state since the death of Watergate.
The three generations of Hokage, who have returned to power, that is, his mentor Sarutobi, pay more attention to the balanced development of the village than the outside world.
And all the foreign strategies of the Watergate period were abolished.
This also led to the fact that most of Konoha's information on the country of ghosts was missing.
If it weren't for him, the third ninja, he would always pay attention to some things that ordinary people can't notice......
Alas. Jiraiya sighed.
No matter how good he is at intelligence gathering, he is always alone.
The Oni Country was aware of the anomaly, but there was no reason to intervene in the territory of the neutral nation.
Once discovered, Konoha will be discredited and attacked by the rest of the ninja villages.
Besides, the matter of Orochimaru and that mysterious organization also needs to be investigated in depth, and there is no energy to investigate the country of ghosts in detail, which can be described as a lack of strength.
"Let's write a letter to Mr. Sarufei's attention......"
Even if the country of ghosts, which is a neutral country, does not pose a military threat, the commercial layout of the country of ghosts is likely to affect the commercial market of Konoha and cannot be completely ignored.
