Chapter 107: The Dark Plan of Shinobi, the Chaos of the Rain Country (Long Chapter, Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket)

Under everyone's gaze, the curtain of the tent was lifted.

The wind and rain behind him disappeared in an instant, and Danzo walked into the tent with his head held high, with rain sliding down his hood.

After the curtain was lifted, it was gently closed, and the heavy rain and the noise of shouting and killing outside were instantly cut off and isolated outside the tent.

"I encountered some minor troubles along the way."

Danzo took off his raincoat and handed it to the guard beside him, revealing his bandaged right arm, and said calmly: "I shouldn't be late, right?"

"You are the elder, how dare I, a junior, say that to you?"

Orochimaru stood in front of the table, narrowed his narrow eyes, and asked sarcastically, "But I still want to know, what kind of trouble did you encounter during the one or two-day journey that made you come so late?"

"You dare..."

Hearing this, the black-robed guard beside Danzo stepped forward and was about to say something, but was stopped by Danzo who stretched out his arm and shook his head and said: "We just encountered a ninja team from Takigakure Village chasing the rebel ninja."

After that, looking at the aggressive Orochimaru, Danzo asked calmly: "Mountain Country, Kagero Village, you should know it, right?"

Mountain Country, Kagero Village?

Orochimaru frowned, as if he remembered something, his eyes flickered slightly and said: "The Mountain Country located between the Rain Country and the Grass Country? Yangyan Village is a small ninja village in the Mountain Country, right? Senior Sakumo mentioned it in the letter he sent me."

"It seems to be a village that is good at making and using detonating tags. Before I took over as the commander of the Rain Country battlefield, it also caused some trouble to the troops led by Senior Sakumo."

"It should be a force hostile to our Konoha? Is the so-called Takigakure Village related to them?"

"It doesn't matter." Danzo shook his head calmly at first, but soon showed a sneer and said, "But it can be related."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Orochimaru also aroused a little interest, "What do you mean?"

Danzo didn't rush to explain anything, but put a piece of information on the table and pushed it to Orochimaru across the table.

Orochimaru frowned and turned over the information. After glancing at it, he instantly became serious and subconsciously stretched out his tongue to lick the corner of his mouth.

"Kakuzu? An immortal ninja who has lived from the troubled times to the present, and who even took on the task of assassinating the First Hokage?"

The rebel ninja that Takigakure is hunting down is an elite named 'Kakuzu', who once took on the task of assassinating the First Hokage by the Takigakure high-level officials.

After sneaking into the Land of Fire, he fought against the First Hokage, risking his life for his village, but in the end he was undoubtedly defeated by the First Hokage's Wood Release and almost died.

After the other party fled back to the village in a very embarrassing situation, not only did he not receive the treatment he deserved, but he also had to face the crime and punishment of mission failure.

So Kakuzu escaped from prison driven by resentment, took away the secret technique that was regarded as a treasure by Takigakure, and used it to take the hearts of all the high-level officials in the village. Now he has become a bounty ninja and travels around the world.

"A ninja from a small country tried to assassinate the first generation. Unless the first generation showed mercy to that guy, or just threw a kunai from a few kilometers away, how could he have a chance to escape back to the village alive?"

Orochimaru was very skeptical about the authenticity of this information, but what he cared about most was the "Secret Technique: Earth Grudge".

A ninja from a small country who was nearly 70 years old could actually become a bounty ninja and be active in the ninja world. Could it be related to this so-called secret technique?

"On the way here, we found the hunting team of Takigakure Village, and soon realized who the other party's target was."

Looking at Orochimaru who seemed to be thinking about something, Danzo's one eye flashed coldly, and he said calmly: "So I asked people to imitate Kakuzu's killing method and followed them to take out the hearts of several people."

Hearing this, Orochimaru raised his eyelids slightly, seemed to understand his intention, and said in surprise: "You disguised yourself as Kakuzu and led the hunting team of Takigakure Village to Kagero Village?"

"No."

Danzo shook his head unexpectedly and sneered, "I also sent people to disguise as the hunting team of Takigakure Village to kill the family of the leader of Kagero Village, and cut up the bodies of his wife and children and scattered them in his office."

After these words came out, the senior ninjas in the tent could not help but grind their teeth, and expressed the deepest sympathy and pity for the leader of Kagero Village who had never met.

Now the leader of Kagero Village, who was blinded by anger, might have killed the hunting team of Takigakure Village.

"You..." Looking at Danzo who was not ashamed but proud, Orochimaru's eyes twitched and he subconsciously asked, "What else did you do?"

"Humph!" Danzo looked surprised, "You actually guessed it," and snorted coldly, "The people of Takigakure Village should have received the information we provided, and are organizing troops to go to Kagero Village for revenge."

After these words came out, everyone, including Orochimaru, looked at Danzo who was talking in front of them, showing an indescribable complex expression.

From a certain perspective, Takigakure Village and Kagero Village are indeed enemies of Konoha, and this wave of operations is estimated to torment Kagero Village half to death.

But the means used by Danzo are really too dirty.

It's even more despicable than the three despicable ones. I have never seen such a disgusting person.

"What are you looking at?" Seeing everyone looking at him, Danzo frowned in dissatisfaction, "When we went to Kagero Village, we found that they were mobilizing troops, and the target was our Konoha!"

In other words, his unintentional move was a blessing in disguise, and it was also considered to have strangled the plan of Kagero Village in the cradle and helped Konoha eliminate a not-so-small crisis.

"Elder Danzo, you are really..." Orochimaru's face wrinkled into a ball, and he carefully organized his words and said tactfully: "Among the people I have seen in the entire ninja world, you are the one with the darkest means."

"If it doesn't work, you can call yourself 'Ninja Dark' in the future."

Orochimaru suddenly understood why Sarutobi teacher sent Danzo out.

If a guy with such dirty means is kept in the village, he will definitely do some disgusting things.

It's better to let him out. Even if he does disgusting things, it's others who are disgusted.

High EQ, Ninja Dark.

Low EQ, a troublemaker.

"Hmm?"

Danzo didn't hear the sarcasm in Orochimaru's words, but raised his eyebrows and whispered with interest: "Darkness of Ninja? It sounds like it really suits me."

Sarutobi has the title of "Professor of Ninjutsu" after all, and as a root buried deep underground, he should also have a title, right?

Darkness of Ninja.

Doesn't this title sound more impressive than any Ninjutsu Professor?

Thinking of this, Danzo felt that Orochimaru was more pleasing to the eye, nodded with satisfaction and smiled: "Orochimaru, aren't you worried about the attack of the Sand Village?"

"It just so happens that I have a plan here that can help you solve this problem."

Orochimaru suddenly felt his heart jump, and an ominous premonition came to his mind, and subconsciously wanted to refuse directly.

If he really used Danzo's plan, he was afraid that his reputation would be ruined. How would his subordinates look at him in the future?

However, just when he wanted to refuse, he suddenly remembered the tense situation on the front line and swallowed back the words on his lips.

"..."

After a long silence, Orochimaru sighed in his heart, then looked up at the senior ninjas and said calmly: "You go out first."

Everyone present was stunned at first, but soon reacted, then looked at each other, their expressions became a little weird, and they stood up and left silently.

And the weird eyes of everyone made Orochimaru's mouth twitch, and he began to regret it in his heart

"Tell me, what treachery... cough, what strategy?"

Orochimaru looked at Danzo unhappily and said bluntly: "Even if the people you brought are elites, combined with all the remaining troops now, it is impossible to confront Sand Village head-on."

"The difference in troops is too big, and we can only resist reluctantly."

Orochimaru's heart was actually very calm, and he was not happy about Danzo's support.

The severe challenges he is facing now are not easy to resolve.

"Hmph, you weren't even born when I was fighting!" Danzo sat on a chair opposite Orochimaru and said calmly, "Don't look at the fierce and crazy offensive of Sand Village now, but the time they can last is actually very short."

"After all, Sand Village is not as rich as us. The armaments and food they consume now are all accumulated with great difficulty after the village was built."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

————————

At the same time, in the Dawn City of the Rain Country.

"Konan, are you sure the boss is here?"

Looking at the small house of 60 to 70 square meters in front of him, Yahiko, who was carrying a katana on his waist, scratched his head.

"Yeah." Konan nodded and said firmly, "I saw Brother Kumokawa walk in here this morning."

The long blue-purple hair rippled slightly, and the white paper flower inserted in the hair on the top of the head swayed, but gathered together without any sign of dispersing.

"Oh, okay." Yahiko didn't think too much and reached out to knock on the door.

Dong! Knock, knock!

"Boss! It's me, boss!" He knocked on the door and shouted, "Nagato asked me to ask you something! I... Ouch!"

Before Yahiko could continue to shout, the door was suddenly opened from the inside, causing him to stumble forward in an instant.

But before Konan could help him, he stabilized his center of gravity very skillfully.

"That was close! That was close!"

Yahiko patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief. He subconsciously looked up, but suddenly froze in his place.

After entering the door, the first thing he saw was not Kumokawa, but the bookshelves that filled the room and the dazzling collection of books on them.

Konan turned his head to look at the window, and in his light orange eyes, he reflected a figure with his head down reading.

"Coo, coo, coo!"

The white dove, whose wings had not yet washed away the night color, curled up in the nest built in the corner of the bookshelf and was quietly combing its feathers.

Yunchuan, dressed in white, was sitting by the window, lazily supporting his cheek with his hand as he turned the pages of a book. His face was facing the sparkling blue sky outside the window, and his long, dark eyelashes were reflected white.

He reads at an amazing speed. Rather than reading, he is flipping the pages at random. His thumb gently flicks the pages, and it takes an average of more than ten seconds to read one page.

What a peaceful picture of the years. Only the sound of pages turning and the sound of sunlight flowing on fingertips can be heard, which makes people reluctant to interrupt.

Xiaonan subconsciously leans to the side, and the sunlight blocked behind him shines on Yunchuan's face. At this moment, the room seems to become brighter, and Xiaonan can't help but slightly open his eyes.

"Boss! Finally found you!"

Yahiko's surprised voice came from the side, which immediately interrupted Xiaonan's thoughts, and his eyes instantly became a little resentful.

"What are you yelling about?"

Yunchuan also raised his head slightly, looked at Yahiko calmly, and said with a little helplessness: "The speed of your strength improvement is not bad, but when can you be more stable?"

"It seems that you and Nagato are really two extremes, one is unhappy and the other is brainless, and your personalities can complement each other."

Hearing this, Yahiko stood up straight and muttered unconvincedly: "Who wants to complement that guy, a red-haired, arrogant kid with a paralyzed face!"

"Oh By the way, "he seemed to think of the right thing, and quickly looked at Yunchuan and asked:" Changmen's guys said that the frequency of Shayin from the country of rain is getting higher and higher, and they are sent to the border of the country of fire and the country of rain! " "" "Also, the trend of Muye facing Sand Yin is becoming more and more obvious ..." After waiting for Yiyan to finish the words, he saw that Yunchuan shook his head. "Wrong." Yunchuan lowered his head again and turned the book. "" "" "" "Yiyan blinked a little blankly. "I told you to read more, but you just won't."

Yunchuan raised his eyelids slightly and said unhappily: "The military strength of Sand Village is indeed not weaker than Konoha, but more troops means more resource consumption, and the supply of Sand Village is far less than that of Konoha.

"With Konoha's terrifying resource supply speed, even if all their current resources are used up, they can still replenish more resources from the rear."

"But the resource supply speed of Sand Village, once the existing resources are exhausted, it will not be able to satisfy all ninjas at all, and the hungry Sand Village ninjas will even collapse without fighting!"

"To put it bluntly, Chiyo is gambling now!"

Speaking of this, Yunchuan suddenly paused and smiled with interest: "But her calculations may be in vain. ”

When he was commanding the Sky Army to attack Konoha, he did not sense Danzo's presence.

According to the information sent by Yakushi from Konoha, Danzo may have gone to one of the two battlefields, most likely Orochimaru's Rain Country battlefield.

Although Danzo's character is not very good, he has experienced the First Ninja World War. This trick can deceive Orochimaru, but it can never deceive the old guy Danzo.

"Hmm." Yunchuan touched the fine lines on the cover and whispered thoughtfully, "Now that I think about it, the best choice that Danzo and Orochimaru can think of is probably to kill someone with a borrowed knife and divert the trouble to the east, right?"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but chuckle and muttered to himself: "It seems that it will get lively, so I'll try to get involved."

——————————

"The old guy Chiyo always likes to take risks. "

"After all, you were forced to become the commander-in-chief, and you have no experience in commanding large-scale wars before, so she bets that you will not be able to bear the psychological pressure and will completely collapse before their resources are exhausted."

Listening to Danzo's clear analysis, Orochimaru's pupils shrank and whispered, "Is that so?"

In fact, as long as he calmed down a little, he could figure this out.

But Chiyo didn't give him any chance to think.

Either he fought the snake in the Dragon Cave on the battlefield, or he exhausted his chakra and calmly restored his chakra, preparing to recover completely before the next Sand Village attack.

The string in his brain was always tense, leaving him no time to adjust and rest.

"...I am too impatient, and the authorities are confused."

After figuring this out, Orochimaru's tense body relaxed immediately, looked at Danzo in front of him, put away his contempt, and said in a deep voice: "Go on, what is the plan you are talking about? "

We can't just fight a war of attrition with the Sand Village and wear them down, right?

Although it feels usable, the cost-effectiveness is too low and the consumption is too high.

"At this critical moment, the key to breaking the deadlock." Danzo raised his hand and touched the scar on his chin, and smiled, "Of course it lies in the Land of Rain."

"Rain Country?" Orochimaru frowned, then he squinted his eyes and pondered, "You mean to pull the Hidden Rain Village into the water and let them disperse the fighting power of the Hidden Sand Village?"

"Yes, just as you thought." Danzo nodded with satisfaction, "Drag the Hidden Rain Village into the battlefield between us and the Hidden Sand Village, and let the Hidden Rain Village share some of the pressure on our behalf."

Orochimaru closed his eyes and pondered for a moment.

But soon, he opened his eyes, shook his head and said, "This is indeed a good idea, but the current leader of the Hidden Rain Village, the old guy named Musashi, is an extreme conservative. How could he resist the Hidden Sand Village?"

If the leader of the Hidden Rain Village was a little tougher, how could the Hidden Sand Village easily invade?

That guy, let alone resisting the Hidden Sand Village, even the villages in his territory were looted, and the other party could swallow this breath. He was so weak that he clearly planned to be a turtle.

"No, just because the old guy Musashi doesn't want to take action doesn't mean that others won't."

Danzo stretched out a finger and shook it, and said with a cold smile: "There is no shortage of passionate and fearless young people in this ninja world. They can't stand Musashi's weakness, but no one has stood up."

"And now, the man called Hanzo has stood up, and his ambition is obvious."

"What we have to do is to help him push a little and continue to intensify the conflict between Sand Village and Rain Village. Hanzo will naturally launch a coup and stand up to lead the hardliners to resist the atrocities of Sand Village!"

In this way, not only can the pressure and threat of Sand Village be reduced, but the battlefield can also be transferred to the Land of Rain, making the environment around Konoha more stable.

But isn't this a replica of Takigakure Village and Kagero Village?

"As expected of you, Shinobi An, Danzo-sama."

Orochimaru's eyes twitched, and then his expression became serious and he said: "Then do it, I need your help to completely lead the war to the Land of Rain!"

As for whether this would sacrifice the civilians of the Land of Rain, and whether the civilians of the Land of Rain were innocent or not, Orochimaru selectively ignored these issues.

The biggest difference between him and Jiraiya is that no matter how despicable the plan is, as long as it can bring victory to Konoha, he will do it at all costs.

It's just simple addition and subtraction.

Thinking of this, Orochimaru's coldness became more intense, and his snake pupils became more like cold-blooded animals.

"Very good."

Sensitively aware of this change, Danzo nodded appreciatively: "Don't worry, I came here for this."

"Root, will bear this darkness with you!"
