Chapter 253 What? The Byakugan was taken away?

The drama is here, Kakumu said to everyone seriously.

"Except for Mizukage, the most elite ninjas in Kirigakure are the seven elite jounin known as the Seven Ninja Swords..."

"Their seven knives are..."

"There are many blood successors and secret ninjas in Kirigakure, so be careful when encountering them, such as..."

Kazuoki quickly told Gai and the others the information he knew about the Kirigakure ninjas.

However, some reservations were made. For example, even the third generation did not know all about the abilities of the Seven Ninja Swords. After all, the fighting time between Konoha and Kirigakure was still short.

What Kazuoki said was actually some information about Kirigakure that Sandai gave to Kazuoki when he left the village.

As a master, you can never let your disciples go to an unknown battlefield with dark eyes.

So Kadomu doesn't have to worry about anyone doubting the source of his intelligence.

Kai and the others didn't think much about it. After all, Kadomu was a disciple of the third generation, so it was normal for him to know some information that they didn't know.

After a long time, Kakugi finally finished speaking, and Ebisu next to him knowingly handed over a cup of tea that had been prepared.

Very good, promising! No wonder he can be Konohamaru's personal teacher!

"Thank you, Kadomu! You are still so selfless!" Kai gave a thumbs up again.

"It's nothing, you're welcome." Kakugi waved his hand casually, indicating that it was not worth mentioning.

I just hope that you can really remember what I said in your heart.

.........

The next day, Kakugi went straight to find Orochimaru, and Kai and the others had already set off early.

"You're here, Kadomu-kun, feel free to sit down."

Orochimaru's hoarse voice sounded. He was sitting behind his desk, and Anko was sitting beside him, helping Orochimaru process some documents.

I don't know if it was a lighting problem, but most of Orochimaru's body was hidden in shadow.

Jiaomu sat down as he was told, his eyes looked at his nose, and his nose looked at his heart.

This "sitting upright" look made Orochimaru burst into laughter.

"There's no need to be formal, Kakugi-kun. I'm just assigning your next tasks."

"Kakugi-kun must have heard some rumors in the camp along the way."

Kazuoki carefully prepared his words and said, "It's nothing, but there seems to be more counterattacks."

"Haha, that's right." Orochimaru nodded slightly and continued: "Especially the Uchiha clan shouts for counterattack the loudest, right?"

Kakugi nodded hesitantly. Indeed, he saw that some Uchiha tribesmen were in a high mood to ask for a fight.

"Haha." Orochimaru shook his head and smiled: "That's because they lost several pairs of Sharingan."

"Uh!" Kakugi was surprised. No wonder the Uchiha clan was in such high spirits. It turned out to be this reason.

Then, Kakugi looked at Orochimaru with a deep look.

Kakugi is 90% sure that the loss of Sharingan must be related to Orochimaru and the root of his effectiveness.

"Actually, I have been preparing for a counterattack during this period, but some preliminary preparations still need to be perfected."

Orochimaru murmured: "Kirigakure has many blood-stained secrets. Compared with us in Konoha, he is particularly good at assassination and lurking. Many times, Kirigakure sneaks into our defense area without even realizing it."

"The previous Kirigakure was too closed-off, and we knew very little about Kirigakure's intelligence. Minato has already led people to do this work, but currently our intelligence is still far from enough."

"Only with enough intelligence can we strike a fatal blow at Kirigakure's weakness. Are you right, Kadaku-kun?"

"Yes, that's right." Kakugi replied affirmatively. The importance of intelligence in ninja battles is self-evident.

Putting aside Orochimaru's suspicions about the Sharingan, as a commander, of course he must make a decision before taking action.

"So, now I need a strong ninja to cooperate with Minato to attract more attention from Kirigakure..."

Kakugi listened quietly to Orochimaru's arrangement. He was mentally prepared for such an arrangement and was about to make the decision...

"Hoohoo!"

A ninja rushed into the command post without any regard for etiquette, shaking the door curtain.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes, feeling very unhappy, but he still asked aloud: "What's the matter?"

Kakugi also looked at the door curiously, wanting to know whose general this was, so brave.

The person who rushed in was a Hyuga ninja. He was panting heavily and in a state of embarrassment. He did not have the style of a wealthy Konoha family at all. He looked directly at Orochimaru with his eyes.

"Lord Orochimaru! One of Hiyoshi-sama's Byakugan was taken away!"

"What?" Orochimaru turned his head suddenly, swallowing back the words he originally wanted to scold.

This was the first time that Kakugi saw a trace of panic on Orochimaru's face.

"Hiyoshi-sama's Byakugan was taken away by Kirigakure!" The Hyuga ninja repeated what he just said, very panicked.

"Please Orochimaru-sama to support us and recapture this Byakugan quickly!"

The Hyuga ninja plopped down and knelt down, his voice was shrill, as if he was crying blood.

"When did it happen?" Orochimaru asked sharply.

"Just now, Hiyoshi-sama's outpost was raided. The Mist Ninja took away a Byakugan and ran away immediately!"

Kazuoki came to his senses, stood up and looked at the Hyuga ninja and asked: "So family?"

"Yes!" Hyuga Ninja's voice was full of panic, indignation and sorrow: "Master Hiyoshi is from the clan!"

Kakugi looked at the kneeling Hyuga ninja in disbelief, and then at Orochimaru, and he probably understood how Nakao's white eyes came from.

It's obviously the Zong family, why come to such a dangerous battlefield?

For the Hyuga clan, just stay at home and be responsible for the continuation of the family!

Orochimaru didn't say a word, his face was gloomy, and he was pacing back and forth in the room, seeming to be thinking about countermeasures.

Unlike the Sharingan, the flaws of the Sharingan transplant are too great, and even if Kirigakure gets it, it will be difficult to use it. What's more, these lost Sharingan are now in the hands of Orochimaru, so Orochimaru is naturally not so nervous.

Compared to the Sharingan, the Byakugan is more inclined to the strategic eye technique, especially on the battlefield with Kirigakure, how many Kirigakure are proficient in latent assassination were exposed under the Byakugan.

Because of this, Kirigakure has coveted Byakugan for a long time and has made huge sacrifices before, specifically targeting members of the Hyuga family.

Unfortunately, there was nothing gained except a corpse with self-destructed eyes.

It is conceivable that Kirigakure, who has obtained this Byakugan, will maximize the value of this Byakugan, and Konoha's advantage in detection will be narrowed by Kirigakure.

Another reason is that Hinata Hiyoshi is the grandson of the great elder of the Hyuga family, and the great elder is also the faction closest to Orochimaru in the Hyuga family.

Although Orochimaru's idea is to bring the common people and the ninja clan closer, if he wants to serve as Hokage, he also needs the support of the ninja clan. What's more, a pupil successor like Byakugan is irreplaceable.
