Chapter 151 The Powerful Fifth Hokage

"Has the Jinchūriki of Sunagakure Village been found?"

Orochimaru asked first.

Although one tail is not as good as nine tails, it is still a tailed beast after all, and its value is extremely high.

What's more, it can also be used to hold [Sha Hidden Village], so it must be held firmly in your hand.

"Sir, it has been found. It is currently being treated in the hospital, and the sealing team has sent personnel to monitor it closely."

"How's it going?"

"The injuries are not serious and are not life-threatening. It's just that the tendons of the hands and feet were severed by kunai, and it will take a long time to fully repair."

"Very good. After the initial treatment, he will be sent to the laboratory."

The ANBU's scalp felt numb and he had the courage to ask:

"Which laboratory should I send it to?"

"When Kabuto comes back, just listen to his arrangements. Initially, a large experimental base will be built on the north side of Konoha Village, and the sound ninja will be responsible for the details. You don't need to interfere, just try to prevent ordinary villagers and ninjas from approaching. ”

"As you command!"

A few Anbu didn't dare to ask any more questions. Anyway, the land that was set aside was not the land in the village.

The land in the village is very valuable, and each division requires various ninja families to gather together to discuss, but the land outside the village is much more relaxed.

As a Hokage, there is no problem in setting aside a piece of land to build something.

"Okay, let's start issuing the official decree."

"First: Let the two consultants Tengchen and Mitomon draft the draft, and in the name of Konoha Hidden Village and the Country of Fire, launch a severe condemnation of the Sunagakure Village and the Country of Wind, and demand compensation!"

"How much should the compensation be?"

"One billion taels! If they want to redeem the Jinchuuriki and those Sand Ninjas, add another one billion taels!"

hiss--!

Several ANBU ninjas gasped and secretly smacked their tongues.

This is too dark!

Too much appetite? ! !

Just like that poor guy in [Sha Hidden Village], if he squeezes out all the money and water, he probably won't be able to squeeze out a billion taels in cash, right?

One billion taels of [Wind Kingdom] banknotes can be squeezed out, but the value of the [Fire Kingdom] banknotes must be reduced by at least half, so it is impossible to accept it.

Between major countries, most trade is exchanged in physical silver coins.

Only within the borders of each country, or when a country's bounty is announced, will the banknotes of each country be used for settlement.

therefore.

One billion taels of cash is basically killing Sunagakure Village!

How can they afford to pay compensation?

Unless you rely on [Kingdom of Wind]?

But will the Kingdom of Wind help Sunagakure Village wipe its ass?

Even if it does, it will probably have to further force Sunagakure Village to hand over more sovereignty and armed rights, right?

Wait, is this the purpose of Lord Hokage?

So that the Kingdom of Wind can further tighten the reins of Sunagakure Village and thereby weaken the sovereignty of Sunagakure Village?

But is it too risky?

"Hokage-sama, isn't this too harsh? What if Sunagakure Village doesn't agree..."

"Then let's start the war!"

"ah?"

"Immediately transfer one-third of the ninjas from each family to form a ninja force of 3,000 people and rush to station at the border of the Kingdom of Wind."

"If Sunagakure Village refuses compensation, start a war and invade immediately!"

"This, this..."

Several ANBU ninjas were sweating profusely and their voices were stammering.

"Just do as you're told!"

"As you command!"

Orochimaru is much more radical than Sarutobi.

Sarutobi was afraid of starting a war, but he was not.

Anyway, he basically can’t die, so who is afraid of whom?

No money?

Then fight!

Are you dissatisfied? Then I’ll beat you until you’re convinced!

And the next time you lose, it won't be as simple as losing money. Maybe it will destroy your entire Sunagakure Village directly!

What's more.

Orochimaru is 98% sure that Sunagakure Village will not dare to take action!

Sunagakure Village suffered such heavy losses this time. Not only did they lose the Kazekage, but their own Jinchuuriki were also captured, and they also lost a group of elites.

The village is absolutely in chaos now, let alone organizing troops to counterattack Konoha at this time.

If you are not careful, Sand Hidden Village will be destroyed!

Orochimaru bets that they don't have the guts to start a war.

There is a high probability that they will just hold their noses and accept the compensation, and quickly select the agent Feng Ying and seek support from the Kingdom of Wind.

As for Orochimaru himself, he doesn't care much about compensation.

But Konoha needs this compensation very much at this moment!

After receiving this large amount of compensation.

Even without relying on the Country of Fire, Orochimaru can distribute a large reward to all Konoha ninjas, thereby completely securing the position of Hokage.

Most ninjas are very realistic and don't have so many ideals. Instead, they care more about rewards and rewards.

As long as there is money.

If your monthly salary can be tripled, the Konoha ninjas will elevate you to the position of Hokage even if they raise you!

If the dog food triples, even the ninja dog Parker will probably jump up and clap his paws to support Orochimaru-sama!

Don't even mention Orochimaru.

Even if Otsutsuki comes, everyone will eat pots of pulp to welcome Master Wang!

This is one of the reasons why the two consultants, Koharu and Mito Kadeni, have been able to sit firmly at the top of Konoha. Not only because of their seniority and connections, but also because they control the administrative department and all aid distribution in the Fire Nation.

Most of the village relies on assistance to maintain its life and operations, so their status is naturally unbreakable.

As for redeeming Gaara, the Sunagakure jinchuriki, through compensation?

That was just a pie created by Orochimaru to prevent Sunagakure Tentengu from jumping over the wall and sending people to sneak in and rescue him.

The Kazekage can be replaced at any time, but the tailed beast cannot be replaced...

What's more, let's not talk about how much time it will take to raise a large ransom.

It’s all raised and delivered.

It doesn’t mean to let go immediately.

No matter what, we have to wait until Lord Orochimaru has thoroughly studied it and squeezed out the value before discussing whether to let it go.

…

"Second: Go and bring me the list of all ninjas and research materials from Gen!"

"Hokage-sama, I'm afraid Danzo-sama won't cooperate easily..."

"It doesn't matter. If you encounter anyone who resists, just kill them without mercy!"

As long as Danzo was not prepared to rebel against the village, it would be impossible for him to lead the diehard elements to attack the Hokage ANBU head-on.

What's more, now that he has even been dismissed from his position as Hokage's assistant, he is apparently unable to mobilize the root ninja.

"Wouldn't this be too exciting, Danzo-sama?"

"Just do it!"

"As you command!"

What Orochimaru wants is to stimulate Danzo and increase his strength.

He will inherit the position of the Fifth Hokage, and the overall situation has been decided.

The only variable is Danzo himself.

Before the official appointment by the Fire Nation daimyo, these few days were Danzo's only chance to struggle.

And based on Orochimaru's understanding of him, he would never give up easily.

Instead of waiting for Danzo to make plans.

It is better to actively force him to jump over the wall;

As long as he jumps out again and takes the initiative to make mistakes again.

Then Orochimaru had enough reason to send him to his grave directly!

Still the same sentence:

Orochimaru is not Sarutobi, and he will not let Danzo jump up and down.

…

"Finally: In the name of the Sandaime Hokage, I would like to issue an invitation to all Omura. I will hold another Five Kage Conference as soon as possible!"

Orochimaru issued the third and most important order.

This made several ANBU ninjas stunned, as if they were dreaming.

The new Hokage is too fierce and tormenting, right?

Are you planning to hold the [Five Shadows Conference] just after taking office?

In what name? What do you want to achieve?

Play, play so big?

Can Konoha survive it? The village won't be ruined by this Hokage-sama, right?
