Inside the Hokage building's office.

The three generations of Hokage Ape Fei Hiza looked at Orochimaru, who came back to report on his work, and in his hand was a detailed list of materials and armaments, which was half the amount that was originally agreed.

"Thank you for your hard work, Orochimaru."

Orochimaru was dressed in a green combat uniform, and he only smiled lightly at Ape Fei's condolences: "It's just to send something, there has been nothing to do, and people will get moldy." ”

When Ape Fei heard this, he said, "Didn't you do a big thing this time?" ”

Orochimaru said: "Since you have encountered it, you naturally can't stand by and watch." ”

Sarufei raised his eyes and glanced at Orochimaru, picked up a letter in his hand and gestured: "The Daimyo sent a letter, the content is mostly a compliment to you, saying that if we Konoha reuse talents like you, the war will definitely be won soon." ”

Orochimaru looked as usual when he heard this, and said, "I met Mizumon on the front line, he has a strong appeal, and only with him can he lead our Konoha to victory." ”

Ape Fei smiled lightly: "Are you so optimistic about him?" ”

Orochimaru said, "Jiraiya is really a good student." ”

Sarufei's eyes moved slightly, and he looked at Orochimaru and suddenly asked, "Then what do you think, how about Mizumon as the fourth generation Hokage?" ”

Orochimaru looked as usual: "The war is not over yet, are you already thinking about stepping down?" ”

"Always think about the future, the daimyo is so optimistic about you, and you are so optimistic about Watergate, how can there be a reason not to win this war?"

"The Hokage's position is inhabited by those who are capable, and Mizumon does have this ability."

Sarufei had been staring into Orochimaru's eyes until he said this, and the snake-like eyes still did not convey the emotions he expected.

He said slowly: "Orochimaru, you have also had such a student, if you can put yourself in their shoes, he should be very happy." ”

Orochimaru's eyes were cold, and he said lightly: "I'll leave first if there's nothing to do." ”

After Orochimaru left, the office fell silent again.

Ape Flying Hand fumbled under his desk for a while, took out a cigarette gun, and as he lit it, he caught a glimpse of the letter from the daimyo on the desk.

In this letter, in addition to the praise of Orochimaru, the daimyo also expressed his dissatisfaction with the Konoha border defense, and was able to let a Iwa ninja team infiltrate like this.

But as soon as Ape Fei learned the news after the incident, he sent someone to investigate the entry and exit information of the border of the Fire Country, and it was during the war, and the Fire Country and Konoha had extremely strict control over the border defense, and the news that they got back was that there was no abnormality at the border.

Sarufei sensed that something was wrong, and then felt that it was pointless to investigate, if something bad really came out, he couldn't tell the Daimyo, could he tell the Daimyo that Konoha was fighting for power and profit because of the Hokage's position at the moment?

Orochimaru, I still underestimated your ruthlessness and ambition......

Ape Fei exhaled a puff of smoke, so thick that it lingered in front of his eyes.

……

The first thing Orochimaru did when he returned to his residence was to ask Azuki to find him.

And after the red bean trotted away, he calmed down again and sat alone in the living room motionless.

It's really sad, Orochimaru, can't he give up these useless feelings to this day?

After closing his eyes for a long time, a ninja dressed in the shadows suddenly appeared in the living room, wearing a patterned mask and half-kneeling on the ground.

"Orochimaru-sama." He handed a scroll in both hands.

As if he hadn't heard, Orochimaru sat there without raising his eyelids, and slowly crawled out of his sleeve a python, crawled in front of the shadows, opened his mouth and held the scroll in his mouth.

"Greetings to Danzo-sama."

The shadows bowed their heads and disappeared in place again.

Half an hour passed, and the red beans were really late.

The moment he stepped into the living room, he immediately felt the cold aura around Orochimaru.

Hongdou didn't notice it, and jumped up and down to Orochimaru's side to ask for credit: "Orochimaru-sama, I brought the truth." ”

Orochimaru smiled lightly and touched her little head: "I have something to talk about with Zhen, you can go out and play for a while first." ”

"Huh?" The red bean face was puzzled, and he turned his head to look at Zhen on the side, thinking about when he really had such a good relationship with Lord Orochimaru.

In Azuki's impression, only Orochimaru-sama needs to avoid it when talking to other adults, and she will be very sensible not to disturb.

But what is there between them to avoid themselves......

"Got it." Red Bean still left obediently, and when he left, he couldn't help but look at the real thing.

I really didn't ask why Orochimaru's mood was a little wrong, but said, "For the past two days, the village has been talking about Orochimaru-sama saving Daimyo. ”

Orochimaru didn't reply, but just threw him a scroll with his backhand.

When it was unfolded, it was written that there were some messages exchanged with some royal ministers of the Fire Country, which probably meant that these ministers had accepted the benefits sent by the roots.

These ministers should not be stupid people, and those who dare to take bribes like this are not all goodwill.

Looking at this appalling content, Zhen looked calm, but said: "The war is almost over. ”

Orochimaru glanced at him: "How do you know?" ”

"Konoha can't afford to fight, and so is Iwakure."

Orochimaru said, "Even so, do you think Iwakure will stop?" ”

The war between the two countries was extremely tragic, and now the war has almost lost its original meaning, and most of the people on the battlefield are fighting for hatred.

"So there needs to be an opportunity for a truce between the two countries, and then Konoha will hand over a peace treaty."

Orochimaru frowned slightly when he heard this: "Isn't this similar to losing a battle." ”

Shin said: "Just embellishment, the villagers won't think so, Hokage-sama will take this opportunity to take the blame and resign, and support the four generations to succeed to the throne." ”

Orochimaru's eyes flashed, and he continued to ask, "What is the opportunity you are talking about?" ”

"Orochimaru-sama has forgotten this ninja war, why did it start?"

Orochimaru's mind turned sharply: "Sand Hide! ”

Zhen took advantage of the situation and said: "The four generations of Wind Shadow have been on the throne for so long, the interior of Sand Hidden Village should have stabilized, and with their alliance, Iwain will inevitably stop." ”

"Will Sand Cain be willing?"

"Shayin is also in dire need of peace, and they will not allow the imbalance of the Three Kingdoms."

Orochimaru stopped making a sound and sat down thinking.

"Orochimaru-sama needs to go to the Land of the Wind to win this ally for Konoha ."

"No!" Orochimaru suddenly spoke, interrupting the real words.

"That's not enough!"

Zhen was slightly stunned when he heard this, but found that Orochimaru sneered and said, "At the moment of Konoha life and death, I must appear with reinforcements in order to bring me enough prestige." ”

His expression really calmed down, and he said, "Right now, Iwakuin is afraid that he doesn't have the strength to force Konoha to that step." ”

"Iwakuin doesn't have the ability, let's just give them this ability!"

"Orochimaru-sama, if you become the Hokage, those ninjas on the front line can be regarded as your family."

Orochimaru was unmoved: "They want to support another Hokage, is this considered a betrayal of me?" ”

He had already understood that the hearts of those ninjas could not be directed towards him in such a short period of time, no matter what he did.

So there must be a path of bloodshed.

"Doing so will cause chaos in Konoha and the entire Fire Country." Shin continued.

Orochimaru also calmed down, and said in a hoarse voice: "Chaos, it's a ladder!" ”

Clear everything and climb the ladder to the top!
