Chapter 32 Meeting with Uzumaki Mito

In the Hokage's office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Orochimaru discussed the current situation in the ninja world.

And Qianyu was listening on the side.

Orochimaru thought for a moment and then asked, "So, teacher, are you going to send me to the River Country to stop those Sand Village ninjas?"

Chiyu's heart skipped a beat when she heard Orochimaru's words.

He really wanted to gain experience on the battlefield, but definitely not now!

If Uzumaki Kushina was attacked by the ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village when he left Konoha, he would not be able to catch up even if he could fly.

No matter what, we have to make sure Uzumaki Kushina is safe before going to the battlefield.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen's next words reassured Chiba.

"Don't worry about them for now, the ninjas stationed at the border of the River Country are enough to deal with them. In the next few days, Orochimaru, you will follow me and make a plan together to discuss how Konoha should deal with this situation."

Orochimaru is first-rate when it comes to formulating strategies.

During the Second Ninja World War, Orochimaru led the ninja troops and won many difficult battles.

The current situation in Konoha is not optimistic.

Orochimaru's strategic ideas are what Konoha needs most right now.

Orochimaru nodded and agreed, "I understand."

Qianyu breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't leave Konoha now.

After Sarutobi Hiruzen and Orochimaru chatted for a while, Orochimaru took Chiba away from the Hokage Building.

On the way, Orochimaru suddenly asked: "Qianyu, you heard what my teacher and I said just now. If the four major ninja villages attack Konoha at the same time, how do you think we can break the situation?"

Orochimaru asked this so suddenly that Chiyu was caught off guard.

Regarding the Third Ninja World War, Chiba was not very clear about the details.

Qianyu thought silently for a long time before he spoke: "The reason why the four major ninja villages united to attack Konoha is nothing more than interests. No matter which ninja world war it is, it is all about interests.

Since the interests can make the Iwagakure Village and the Kumogakure Village cooperate, then the interests can also make the two villages turn against each other."

Orochimaru was quite satisfied with Chiba's answer: "Then how can we use interests to turn these two villages against each other?"

Qianyu shook her head: "I'm sorry, Mr. Orochimaru, I don't know that either."

Qianyu really didn't know what benefits he could use to make the Iwagakure Village and the Kumogakure Village turn against each other.

First of all, Chiba didn't know what benefits Konoha could offer to cause the Iwagakure Village and the Kumogakure Village to turn against each other.

Secondly, the cooperation between the Iwagakure Village and the Kumogakure Village is definitely for the purpose of plundering the rich resources of the Land of Fire.

You can't say to the people of Iwagakure Village or Kumogakure Village, let's cooperate and grab the resources of the other village together?

They have already decided to plunder Konoha together, so why should they give up their current partners and cooperate with you?

In Qianyu's opinion, only after knowing the content of the cooperation between the Iwagakure Village and the Kumogakure Village can they target them and tempt one of the ninja villages with greater benefits.

Orochimaru didn't care about Chiyu's answer of "I don't know". It was indeed a bit difficult for Chiyu to answer this question.

Orochimaru said to Chiba, "I will be very busy in the future, so I won't be able to be in the base every day. I'll give you a day off today. Tomorrow I'll take you to the Ryuchi Cave, and then I'll make a training plan for you. You'll train on your own.

If there are any suitable missions in the future, I will continue to help you take them, but you will probably have to carry them out alone."

When Qianyu heard that she could have a day off today, a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.

After Orochimaru took a look at Chiyu, he knew what Chiyu wanted to do.

"Go."

"Teacher Orochimaru, I'll be leaving now. See you tomorrow!"

Chiba waved goodbye to Orochimaru and ran forward impatiently.

...

In front of Uzumaki Mito's mansion, Chiyu felt a little nervous and a little excited.

It’s been a month since I last saw Uzumaki Kushina.

Qianyu knocked on the door of the mansion.

Soon Qianyu heard a burst of very fast footsteps, obviously running.

The door to the mansion opened.

Qianyu only saw a flash of red, and then a person pounced on him.

Chiba hugged Uzumaki Kushina and rubbed the back of her head lovingly, "Long time no see, Kushina."

Uzumaki Kushina let go of Chiba, pouted and punched Chiba in the chest: "Why did you take so long to come see me! I thought you had forgotten me!"

Qianyu's expression froze.

Why is Uzumaki Kushina's strength getting stronger and stronger?

Qianyu touched his nose and said, "How could I forget you? I will never forget you no matter who I forget. Because the task training assigned to me by Orochimaru teacher is quite heavy, I have no time to come out. I also completed a task these two days, and Orochimaru teacher gave me a day off.

By the way, Kushina, how did you know that I was the one looking for you?"

Uzumaki Kushina replied: "It was Grandma Mito who told me that Grandma Mito has a special ability that can sense every move within a large range through chakra!"

Chiba immediately understood what Uzumaki Mito's special ability was that Uzumaki Kushina was talking about.

Kagura's Heart's Eye, one of the unique abilities of the Uzumaki clan.

Uzumaki Kushina took Chiba's hand and ran towards Uzumaki Mito's mansion: "Granny Mito misses you too, let's go see Grandma Mito together!"

Chiba, who was being dragged by Uzumaki Kushina, let out an imperceptible sigh.

He doesn't want to see Uzumaki Mito. He just wants to wander around with Uzumaki Kushina alone.

Chiba still met Uzumaki Mito.

Compared to the Uzumaki Mito that Chiyu had seen before, the current Uzumaki Mito has the image of an old woman.

Qianyu bowed and said, "Mito-sama."

Uzumaki Mito looked at Chiba kindly.

Qianyu, who had already killed someone, now had a completely different temperament, and had a sharp feeling.

Uzumaki Mito sighed, "You've grown up, Chiba."

Qianyu said respectfully, "In front of Master Mito, I am just a child."

Feeling the distance between Chiyu and her, Uzumaki Mito sighed and said, "Chiyu, there's no need for you to be so defensive against me."

Qianyu lowered her head and frowned slightly, still answering in a formal manner: "Mito-sama, you are the elder."

Chiba's meaning was very clear, Uzumaki Mito was his elder and he was just respectful, not on guard.

Uzumaki Mito shook his head helplessly.

As the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, she has the ability to sense good and evil because of the Nine-Tails' chakra, especially a keen sense of malice.

When Chiyu met her for the first time, although Chiyu behaved almost impeccably, Uzumaki Mito could clearly sense Chiyu's defensiveness and distance towards her.

The same is true what I sense now from Qianyu.
