Chapter 2424 Another Aspect

become……

People like me?

This lord?

His eyes widened little by little, and an obvious look of horror slowly appeared on Toss's face, as if it was about to freeze on his face. Even his body was slightly stiff.

Are you...are you kidding me?

Sir, how can you be like me?

Be like me?

Humble, struggling to survive, without even freedom?

No!

No no no!

impossible!

This is just an adult trying to comfort me!

Then, in the next tenth of a second, he quickly rejected his idea and quickly found a reasonable reason for himself.

That is, the adult in the shadow who has given me almost everything I have now is just comforting myself.

Let yourself not underestimate yourself.

The purpose is to stabilize his mentality in the future mission where this adult seems to be fatal, that is, in the battle with Uchiha Sasuke, and to avoid being unconfident due to low self-esteem.

After all, this lord? Like yourself?

Is it just a joke?

How could this god-like man become like this?

Even if this adult has the same experience as his own, he will definitely become the adult he is now, completely different from Orochimaru, full of charisma and power.

However, if this adult had been like me, maybe I would have met this adult before meeting Orochimaru, and my situation would definitely be better than now.

At least, working under this adult is always safer and more secure than Orochimaru.

Instead of simply becoming a chess piece that can be discarded at any time.

Growing up in the dark world and experiencing so many dangers, Toss still knows clearly who is a trustworthy person and who is not.

The adult in front of him seemed to be as emotionless as a god. However, deep down in his heart, Toss could feel that the adult's heart was full of warmth that Orochimaru's coldness did not possess.

Although he grew up in a dark world and encountered Orochimaru's cruelty, as a person, Toss does not need warmth. It's just that he is not qualified to pursue warmth now.

It is impossible for this lord to become someone like him, so now it can only be comfort.

"Next, forget about me."

At this time, the man of shadow didn't seem to care about his current disbelief and self-explanation, and just said lightly.

"yes!"

To this, Toss hurriedly responded, his figure unconsciously upright to show that he would firmly comply.

This matter can be regarded as clearly decided when I first met this adult. After the cooperation is over, everything about him must be forgotten.

And since this adult has not shown his face after so many years of cooperation,

Even his name has not been revealed. He can only call him "sir" so far. It can be seen that there is some reason why this mysterious master cannot be exposed to others.

This request is also very reasonable.

However, it is impossible to forget after all. In Toss's heart, this adult has become the only light and warmth in his dark life, and it is definitely impossible to forget.

However, he would not say anything about this adult even to death.

"Finally, pay attention to that Gaara. If you encounter him, run away!"

Then, just when he was secretly making up his mind, in the shadows, after a long pause, he seemed to hesitate and said this.

And with these words, the shadow in Toss's eyes instantly faded, as if something had left.

I... Gaara?

At the same time, Toss, who knew that his master had left, was stunned and stunned.

Encounter him and run away?

But his heart was filled with incredulity.

This Lord should be very clear about his own strength, and Gaara does seem to be very strong. If he really wants to fight, he may not be his opponent.

but……

Run away when encountered?

This is a bit too much.

No matter what, Gaara can't be the kind of being who can just run away without fighting.

Toss had also thought that with his true strength, even under Orochimaru's hands, if he was well prepared, he could escape, at least with a partial chance.

Now this adult said that if you let yourself run away when you see Gaara, wouldn't that mean that Gaara is stronger than Orochimaru?

To be honest, after seeing or coming into contact with Orochimaru to a certain extent, the strength of this former Sannin of Konoha as an S-level rebel ninja made him sincerely afraid.

This was one of the reasons why he still chose to listen to Orochimaru when the man he respected as a god tried to persuade him.

At this moment, Toss's face finally showed some hesitation.

never mind!

It’s better to go back first!

I also need to appease that idiot Sark!

I don’t know, his injury...

However, after showing hesitation, Toss did not choose to stay here longer, but left this passage after such a thought flashed in his mind.

There was silence in the remaining passage.

"despair!"

Until, there was a slight sound of footsteps, stepping gently out of the shadow. In the darkness, a figure whose whole body seemed to be shrouded in shadow slightly emerged.

"Toss..."

Then, there was an almost inaudible groan.

"It doesn't matter, whether he is alive or dead, it can be regarded as an inference that can be used as an argument. Let it be."

Then, there were such words that seemed to be spoken to himself.

But the voice of these words was exactly the same as that of the gentleman from Toss.

…

At this time, on the other side, was the Hokage's office.

"The Third Hokage, there is currently no unusual movement in the village."

Half-kneeling in front of the Hokage's desk, the ANBU ninja who made a routine report spoke seriously and respectfully.

"Um."

In response, the Third Hokage, who was reading a certain scroll with a solemn and suspicious look on his face, gently put down the scroll in his hand and nodded in response.

This is a rare good thing.

At the same time, the old man seemed to have put down a small stone in his heart, and his face showed a bit of relief.

"yes!"

Hearing this, the ANBU ninja was also quite excited and said.

Since the beginning of strict defense in secret, although the village has once again entered a state of full capacity, some frivolous behaviors have indeed been reduced a lot, and the village seems much more stable.

Whether it's overtly or covertly.

"Well, where is Orochimaru? Have you found any trace of him?"

After hearing the encouraging words of the ANBU ninja, the Third Hokage nodded and asked.

"No."

In response, the ANBU ninja's expression changed slightly and he shook his head.

Although it shows that the secrets are much more stable, Orochimaru, who has been tracking down since the strict defense, seems to have disappeared at this time, without any news.

To be honest, the ANBU ninjas who were making routine reports were also very worried about this matter.

Now on Konoha's territory, sufficient intelligence and combat power has been deployed, but Orochimaru cannot be found. Although there is Orochimaru here as one of the three ninjas, he basically knows Konoha's defense very well, even if Konoha has changed significantly. , however, for a rebel who knows Orochimaru as well as him, he can basically make a rough guess, and it is normal for him to not be able to find Orochimaru for a while.

However, Orochimaru's appearance this time has a disturbing atmosphere. Coupled with the current undercurrent of the situation, Orochimaru has actually become a quite important character.

After all, with Orochimaru's understanding of Konoha and his status as an S-level rebel ninja, if someone wants to harm Konoha, they will definitely come to Orochimaru.

And it is completely possible to invite forces that can be detrimental to Konoha to come out or cooperate with Orochimaru.

In other words, Orochimaru's sudden appearance is likely to represent a big force behind it, and Orochimaru cannot fight alone.

If Orochimaru can be found and monitored now, or Orochimaru can be controlled directly, the effect will be much better than using Kusakin Village and a month to deter him.

And since Orochimaru can seem to evaporate in Konoha Village, then the forces behind him or the cooperating forces can also completely evaporate. Destroying secretly without Konoha's knowledge.

This is almost the situation that is stuck in Konoha's throat now.

Without Orochimaru, Konoha is at a disadvantage.

"Well, I understand."

In this regard, there was no strange expression on the face of the Third Hokage. It seemed that he was expecting that Orochimaru could not be found.

"Has everyone been notified of Chiba's return?"

Then, the Third Hokage spoke again.

"According to your instructions, all ministers, deputy ministers and their deputies have been notified."

In response, the ANBU ninja's originally worried face immediately flashed with excitement and he spoke.

"How was the reaction?"

Hearing this, the Third Hokage showed no strange expression on his face, as if everything was within his expectation, and he just asked.

"At first, everyone who didn't know was still a little surprised. Some new staff and young people who had not experienced that era were still a little confused. However, when I left, some old ministers who knew Mr. Chiba had already I have begun to popularize these dusty histories to them. Now, I think they need to slow down a bit. After all, it is Chiba-sama who is comparable to the Fourth Hokage. However, it should not be a problem for Chiba-sama to take over the scheduling of those departments. "

In response, the ANBU ninja hurriedly spoke.

At the same time, a smile appeared on his face.

At this moment, recalling the confused expressions of the newcomers, he still felt a sense of superiority.

Although there was no malice in this superiority, he still felt an uncontrollable feeling of relief when he saw the confused look of the newcomers who were already able to command him.

"Really? That's good. Chiba will take over this part of the power and there can't be any problems."

Hearing this, the Third Hokage nodded and spoke seriously.

"yes!"

In this regard, the ANBU ninjas are also ninjas who have followed the Third Hokage for many years. The feeling of comfort cannot be suppressed, but it is only before the Third Hokage becomes serious. Now that the Third Hokage has become serious, then, it means Yes, this matter is very important.

As a ninja who made routine reports, he naturally knew the importance of this and responded solemnly.

And, we have decided to pay close attention to this matter.

"Well...just step back first."

In response, the Third Hokage nodded and said.

"yes!"

And after hearing this, the ANBU ninja didn't waste any time, and disappeared in a flash.

"Well...now that Chiba has taken over, there shouldn't be much trouble in terms of defense."

Then, looking at the empty desk, the Third Hokage groaned and said this.

only……

However, the next second, after he picked up the scroll he had just put down, he wrinkled it again.

Who is this Haneda Kazuha?

How could he come up with a plan that was so similar to Chiba's style?

Is it possible that Qianye has accepted disciples with qualifications so close to his during this period?

After that, after reading the strategy on the scroll, the Third Hokage couldn't help but have such a suspicious thought in his mind.

That's right, this scroll is the information delivered by Watanabe Kensei about the strategic issues in Kusagakure Village.

This is the strategic policy proposed by Kazuyo Haneda.

As for the Third Hokage, who has direct communication channels with Chiba, it is naturally impossible for him to think that Haneda Kazuyo and Chiba are the same person. However, this strategy is too similar to Chiba's strategy.

The only possibility is that Haneda Kazuyo is a disciple of Chiba. He was favored by Chiba because he had similar qualifications to Chiba, so he learned these strategies from Chiba.

Moreover, this also reasonably explains why Kusugakure Village single-handedly selected Konoha. You must know that Kusugakure Village does not consider other great ninja villages and only targets Konoha. It is also quite strange. Xiao Ninja Village chooses a big force, but it will never choose just one.

In itself, this is strange.

This behavior, which seemed to be all-in-one without considering the consequences, would never be done by Xiao Ninja Village.

Now, after seeing this strategy, the Third Hokage seems to understand why Chiba asked him to form an alliance with Kusakure Village as a starting point to break the current structure of the ninja world.

It is very possible that the current Kusanagi Village is secretly run by Chiba. This can also explain why the country of Kusana suddenly closed itself off and suddenly changed its leader. The daimyo began to ask for help. Maybe this hand was secretly manipulated by Chiba.

And this Haneda clan may be Qianye's cronies, and their purpose is naturally for Konoha.

Cultivate a reliable helper for Konoha.

Change the unfavorable situation of every ninja war in Konoha.

The Third Hokage believes that Chiba will definitely want what he wants.

"Well...if that's the case, then..."

Thinking of this, the Third Hokage no longer thought about it, and stamped it directly on the strategy with a snap.
