Chapter 279 The war is over?

Before going to bed, Kakumu's brain couldn't help but wander, thinking about the current situation on the battlefield.

The current situation of Kirigakure Village is worse than in the original work. In the original work, three Seven Ninja Swordsmen survived, but now there is only one Watermelon Mountain Fugu Oni ​​left.

Kakugi estimated that Orochimaru would soon launch a counterattack against Kirigakure.

In fact, it was not as expected by Kadomu.

On the third night after arriving at the camp, a ninja informed Kakugi to attend a Jonin meeting tomorrow morning.

At the Jonin meeting, Orochimaru indeed came up with a counterattack plan from the beginning.

Presumably, in these short three days, the general staff of the camp was also thinking very hard.

When the counterattack plan was proposed, the first to respond were the ninjas of the Uchiha and Hyuga clans.

The former lost several pairs of Sharingan in the Kirigakure battlefield, and the latter, the young master of his clan almost had his eyes taken away, and a group of branch ninjas were holding their breath and wanted to take revenge.

Orochimaru looked at the many ninjas rushing to fight, with a rare happiness and ease on his face.

In this way, military morale is available!

This battle will also completely establish Orochimaru's illustrious military exploits!

There are also many blood successor ninjas in Kirigakure Village, all of which are precious experimental materials!

The treasure house of experimental materials will be completely opened to you with this counterattack!

Just when the crowd in the command post was raging, asking for orders for the battle, and fighting bravely to take the lead;

When Orochimaru was intoxicated with the harvest of victory.

A Konoha ninja who was responsible for receiving the message came in quietly, walked up to Orochimaru and whispered.

The smile on Orochimaru's face suddenly became a little stiff.

"..."

The entire command post gradually became silent as Orochimaru's expression changed.

The messenger ninja left, Orochimaru still had a dark face, narrowed his eyes, and looked ahead.

After a while, Orochimaru let out a long breath and put his signature smile on his face again.

"Everyone, I have good news for you."

There was silence in the command post. Everyone looked at Orochimaru silently.

"With the mediation of the village, we have officially started peace negotiations with Kirigakure Village. Our war with Kirigakure is over!"

"..."

There was silence in the command post.

Surprise, confusion, loss, joy... various complex expressions appeared on the faces of many Jonin who participated in the meeting.

Especially some Jonin who were usually very close to Orochimaru, their faces were full of astonishment and disbelief.

Kadomu sighed, his face full of regret.

Thinking on the bright side, maybe the village's current strength really cannot support a large-scale war.

But, this matter should at least be discussed with the frontline commander, right?

Also thinking the same thing was Minato Namikaze in the crowd.

Kakugi looked at Minato carefully, and Minato's face was also filled with regret.

In Kirigakure Village now, the Three-Tails are gone, the Seven Ninja Swords are gone, and there is a serious lack of high-end combat power.

If the village insists on continuing to fight, the possibility of failure is almost negligible, and the results obtained will definitely far exceed the peace treaty that is about to be signed.

At this critical moment, the village took the initiative to mediate and negotiate a peace, and Wuyin Village took advantage of the situation.

What a great opportunity!

Inexplicably, even though Kazuoki had been wary of Orochimaru in his heart, he couldn't help but sympathize with him at this moment.

"Haha." Orochimaru licked the corners of his mouth, jumped up to the desk, stretched out his arms, and said with a smile on his face.

"Everyone, why are you silent? Hehehe..."

"Hehehe...hehehe...hahahahaha!"

No one in the camp still paid attention to Orochimaru's speech, and Kakugi instantly changed from sympathy for him to vigilance.

Isn't this Orochimaru crazy?

After a while, Orochimaru finally calmed down.

The faint smile returned to his face, but his eyes were always cold.

"Haha, congratulations everyone, the war is over! Let's cheer!"

Orochimaru seemed to be waving his fist in great excitement. The air in the tent was stagnant for a moment, and then burst into strong cheers.

"We win! Oh!!!"

Everyone is trying to appear cheerful.

Even the proud Uchiha clan applauded accordingly.

Although the lost Sharingan and two pairs of three magatama are missing, most of them can be considered recovered.

Those two pairs of Sharingan can only go through subsequent negotiations between the village and Kirigakure to see if they can find a solution.

If it doesn't work, the Uchiha clan will also carry out long-term recovery work.

Although there is a high probability that the lost Sharingan cannot be used, the Uchiha clan must maintain a tough attitude.

From Uchiha's point of view, Orochimaru was helpful in retrieving the Sharingan, so why not cooperate with him.

But anyone with a discerning eye could see that Orochimaru was completely out of the race for Hokage as he claimed.

Kadomu did not clap and cheer, but took advantage of the crowd and quietly slipped out of the tent.

As soon as he walked under a hidden big tree, there was a "swish" sound, and a familiar figure suddenly appeared next to him.

Taking a closer look, who else could it be if it wasn't Namikaze Minato?

Kakugi suddenly realized that the Flying Thunder God Kunai that Minato gave him was still in his arms.

When you are no longer on the battlefield, you must take out the kunai.

Kazuoki secretly made a decision.

"Sorry, did I scare you?" Minato greeted with a warm smile.

"Ah, it's nothing." Kazuoki smiled faintly, sat down against the tree trunk, and said proactively: "Why did you come out, Lord Minato?"

"Ha, it's just the two of us here, so you don't have to call me "sir" anymore, Kakugi-san." Minato glanced at Kakugi seemingly helplessly and asked, "Isn't it the same for you?"

"Move over that way!" Minato said, sitting next to Kazuoki against the tree trunk, and Kazuoki had no choice but to move to the side.

Minato looked up at the sky covered by leaves, with a faint smile on his face.

Kakumu closed his eyes slightly, seeming to be concentrating.

"Hey, Kakugi-san." In the end, Minato was the first to break the silence: "How many of the people cheering inside are really cheering for the end of this war?"

Minato still maintained his posture of looking up at the sky.

Kadomu lowered his head and said after a moment: "Who knows..."

"People are complex. For example, after losing relatives and friends on the battlefield, some people will want to take revenge on the enemy, while others want to end the war that has caused great pain as soon as possible."

"What about you, Kakugi-san?" Minato asked.

"Me? From a personal standpoint, I prefer peace."

"It's just peace, which is usually bought through war."

Minato sighed, looked at the blue sky and said, "Yeah..."

"This is the saddest part of our ninja world."

Minato turned his head, looked at Kazugi and asked, "So, do you support ending this battle with Kirigakure?"
