Chapter 193
Rejected?
Ever since he knew that Chiyue was left in the village and became a guiding jonin, Orochimaru knew what the high-level officials wanted to do.
But he never expected that the village would sacrifice the success rate of completing the mission in order to continue to cool down Chiyue.
He couldn't guarantee it alone, but with Chiyue's help, Orochimaru believed that he could make the Cloud Village suffer.
Even if he was discovered in the end, he could evacuate calmly.
If he was alone, the mission would be extremely difficult. Once he was exposed, what awaited him, Orochimaru, would be the endless pursuit of the Cloud Village.
It was even possible that the Third Raikage would hunt him down personally.
Orochimaru had already thought of various plans, but something went wrong when he was looking for a partner.
"Hehe."
Orochimaru couldn't help laughing, and his smile was full of irony and helplessness.
Hearing Orochimaru's harsh laughter, the Third Hokage looked a little unnatural.
After all, what they did was not reasonable in the first place, and after being discovered, they were ridiculed for it. No one would feel comfortable.
"Okay, just be happy."
Orochimaru stood up disappointedly and reminded the Third Hokage:
"But what I want to tell you is, don't push too hard. Once this kid explodes, you will probably regret it."
"Dong Dong Dong!!"
Before the Third Hokage could respond, the office door was knocked.
"Come in."
"Hokage-sama!"
After the door opened, the people from the Intelligence Department rushed in anxiously and placed the scroll on the table as quickly as possible:
"This is a request for help from the Iron Country. The Iron Country hopes that our Konoha can send people to stop the people from the Rain Village."
"What?"
The Third Hokage thought there was something wrong with his ears.
The Iron Country, which is a permanent neutral country, is being attacked by ninja villages from other countries.
And the one attacking them is the Rain Village, which has just suffered a defeat!
What is Hanzo trying to do?
Crossing the Land of Fire to attack the Land of Iron, you must be crazy.
The Third Hokage hurriedly opened the scroll and started reading.
Orochimaru laughed silently.
He decided not to leave yet, it would be nice to stay and watch the show.
"Nonsense!"
After reading the request for help written in the scroll, the Third Hokage slammed the table and cursed:
"Is Hanzo crazy?
The Rain Village needs rest, not war, and he actually led the people to attack the neutral country of Iron!!"
Hanzo had the idea of starting a war, and it was not a joke.
The original target was the Land of Grass, after all, it was right next to it, and the geographical environment of the Land of Grass was not bad.
If it was attacked and managed well, the economy of the Land of Rain could be improved.
Strengthen the national strength of the Land of Rain.
It's a pity that the Land of Grass is a subsidiary of the Land of Fire and Konoha.
Konoha will not sit idly by.
After a few rounds, coupled with the frame-up by the Sand Village, the war broke out.
Seeing that the war with the Rain Village had just ended, Konoha was free to concentrate its forces on dealing with the Sand Village.
Who knew that Hanzo had gone wrong and went directly across the Fire Country to attack the Iron Country.
"Go and inform the Elders and the Hokage Assistants to come to the conference room for a meeting. Orochimaru, you should come too."
Take the scroll, the Third Hokage, with a gloomy face, led the way to the conference room.
Orochimaru smiled and followed slowly.
He really wanted to know how the village would deal with this matter.
The Grass Country is an ally of the Fire Country, so Konoha cannot sit idly by.
And the Iron Country is a neutral country, and the five major ninja villages cannot sit idly by and watch the Iron Country being attacked.
Konoha, which has been relying on purchasing a large amount of high-quality ore from the Iron Country for many years, will not allow such a thing to happen.
"Hanzo, interesting..."
After a while, Danzo, Koharu Utane, and Mitomon En, who were notified, all rushed to the Hokage office building.
Several people sat down in the conference room.
The Third Hokage handed them the scroll:
"Look at it, this is what Hanzo did. The war just ended not long ago, and he immediately crossed our Fire Country to attack the Iron Country."
"The Iron Country doesn't want to sacrifice too many people, nor does it want a war to break out, so it asked us for help. I'm afraid that other ninja villages will also receive corresponding requests."
Can the Iron Country beat the Rain Village?
It may be a bit uncertain. One Hanzo is enough for the Iron Country to enjoy.
In addition, as a neutral country, the Iron Country is unwilling to be involved in the war, so asking for help from the five major ninja villages is the best way.
The Mist Village is out of reach and basically cannot be relied on.
The Sand Village can't protect itself. At present, only Konoha, Rock Village and Cloud Village can solve the difficulties of the Iron Country.
"Nonsense! Hanzo is crazy."
"Hiruzen, we can't tolerate this happening!Hanzo's behavior must be stopped. "
The only way for Rain Village and even the Land of Rain to recover is to launch wars and plunder resources.
With the hollowed-out situation of the Land of Rain, it will take at least 20 years for Hanzo to recover.
This is also the fundamental reason why Hanzo would risk crossing the entire Land of Fire to attack the Land of Iron.
Utatane Koharu and Mitomon En were directly blown up, Danzo just had a gloomy face and didn't say anything, just looking at his clenched fists, you can see that he is not calm in his heart.
Tsk tsk tsk.
Looking at Danzo's right eye and arm wrapped in bandages, Orochimaru inexplicably wanted to laugh.
This old guy must hate the old woman Chiyo to death.
"Stop it for sure."
The Third Hokage picked up the pipe, lit it, and took a deep puff of smoke:
"The question is how to stop it. "
We can't start another war against the Rain Village, can we?
After all, Hanzo didn't attack the Land of Fire, so even threatening to send troops would be unreasonable.
How to stop Hanzo is a difficult problem.
Threat of war is impossible.
But the question is, will Hanzo withdraw his troops if we send someone to persuade him?
Obviously, it's unlikely.
Kouharu Utatane and En Mitomon, who had just been cursing, calmed down and thought that the matter seemed to be difficult to handle.
"Danzo, what do you think?"
Since the two elders couldn't come up with any good ideas, the Third Hokage had to consult his own Hokage for assistance.
Faced with the Third Hokage's inquiry, Danzo said indifferently:
"Now we can only send someone to persuade Hanzo to withdraw his troops and lead the people of the Rain Village to leave the Land of Iron."
If it were normal times, Danzo would definitely get involved in such matters, but now he doesn't have the heart to care about these things, as the lost chakra metal has not been found yet.
"You want to go there in person? "
The Third Hokage subconsciously thought that Danzo wanted to go there in person to meet Hanzo and persuade him to leave the Iron Kingdom.
"? ? ? "
I was just giving a suggestion. Who said I was going to the Iron Kingdom to meet Hanzo?
Danzo didn't expect the Third Hokage to put the blame on him. He was stunned on the spot. He quickly reacted and shook his head to refuse:
"My condition has just been controlled. It's not suitable for long-distance travel. I can't go to Hanzo to discuss this matter. "
Danzo doesn't want to go.
So he's making excuses.
Tsunade has already said that Danzo has no other problems except that his movements are not very convenient and his strength has decreased.
But Danzo's words clearly show that he doesn't want to get involved in this matter.
If Danzo doesn't want to go, it's even more impossible for Utatane Koharu and Mitomon En to leave the village.
The Third Hokage suddenly had a headache.
Or else........
"Hehehe......."
Seeing the Third Hokage looking at him, Orochimaru, who was looking at him with his arms folded, couldn't help laughing:
"I refuse."
Because of the title of the Three Ninjas, Orochimaru doesn't want to see Hanzo at all.
Unless his strength reaches the point where he can kill Hanzo, he doesn't want to see Hanzo.
Besides, he hasn't figured out his mission yet, and the Third Hokage wants to throw this mess to him, so Orochimaru can't take it over.
It's obviously a thankless task, and whoever takes it over is a fool.
"Orochimaru, what are you laughing at? ”
