Chapter 90 The Rain Country is Getting More Bustling
Kakuzu, who was still staring at Sakumo, looked at Scorpion who suddenly left with some annoyance and asked loudly:
"What are you doing?!"
"At this point, you can handle it on your own."
Scorpion's cold voice reached Kakuzu's ears.
At this moment, an old woman appeared on the battlefield.
She heard a familiar voice and looked into the depths of the rain forest, but even here, she only saw familiar red hair.
"scorpion!!"
Scorpion didn't look back.
Both his remaining emotions and the rationality in his heart made it impossible for him to face his grandmother, Chiyo.
At this time, the Sand Village ninjas completely surrounded the place.
Kakuzu was wondering whether he should leave.
If Sakumo's body was taken by the Sunagakure people, he might not be able to get a head worth 500 million.
This was a number that drove him crazy.
"Hatake Sakumo, it's you!"
When Chiyo saw the familiar silver-white hair that she thought of day and night, she knew why Scorpion appeared here.
Thinking of her grandson and son, Chiyo couldn't help but tear open the sealed scroll.
Ten white figures appeared in front of her.
There are ten people near Song!
The ten puppets were created by the puppet master Zaemon. Each puppet has its own weapons, ninja tools and attack methods.
In his current state, Sakumo is simply unable to fight.
What's more, there is a Kakuzu standing next to him, watching him with eager eyes!
"I hope Haneda can escape successfully..."
Shuomao's eyelids drooped slightly, the venom prepared by the scorpion was already spreading through his body.
His breathing became heavy, and exhaustion hit his brain.
But at this moment, a familiar cold voice sounded in his ears.
"Sakumo, it's rare to see you so embarrassed."
Orochimaru's figure appeared in front of Sakumo.
At the same time, Kai, Mitarashi Anko, Shiranui Genma and others also appeared here.
"Uncle Sakumo." Kai stepped forward and helped Sakumo up.
At the same time, the medical ninja also came and fed Sakumo a bottle of special medicine.
"Latent Shadow Snake Hand!"
Orochimaru's hand turned into a giant snake and stopped Chikamatsu Juurei.
He reminded in a cold voice: "If Sunagakure wants to start a war in the Land of Rain, then take another step forward."
"What do you say, Hanzo?"
As soon as the words fell, another figure appeared at the scene of the confrontation.
The visitor was undoubtedly the leader of the Hidden Rain Village, Hanzo the Salamander.
"Amegakure has no intention of going to war with Konoha, nor does it intend to offend Sunagakure."
"You two, please come back."
Hanzo said as he stuck his chain sickle into the ground.
Seeing Hanzo's polite threat and Orochimaru's playful eyes, Chiyo could only swallow her anger.
The Hidden Rain Village does not want their territory to become a battlefield, and the Konoha support forces led by Orochimaru have also arrived.
It’s not a good opportunity to take action now.
"Okay, I'll take the Sunagakure ninjas away now." Chiyo said gritting her teeth.
She is a high-ranking figure in Sunagakure, not an ordinary ninja.
The interests of the village are above her personal feelings.
This is Chiyo’s big picture view.
Afterwards, the people from Sunagakure left, and Orochimaru glanced at Hanzo, wondering what he was thinking.
After a few seconds, he also led the Konoha ninjas away.
And Kakuzu had left quietly at some point without anyone noticing.
He regretted deeply in his heart why he did not agree to Haneda's conditions before.
Three times the price, that’s two hundred and four hundred million taels!
pain!
It hurts so much! !
When I get back, I must kill the person in charge of the black market. It just so happens that he is lacking a heart.
…………
In the blood mist, a hidden basement.
Black Zetsu and White Zetsu emerged from underground and reported to Madara who was sitting on the stone chair above:
"Madara-sama, Hatake Sakumo was covering the retreat for Haneda. When he was about to die, Chiyo arrived and Sasori suddenly left."
"When Chiyo attacked Sakumo, Konoha's Orochimaru and Amegakure's Hanzo arrived and Hatake Sakumo was rescued."
Madara listened to Black Zetsu's report, resting his right arm on the armrest, his hand on his cheek, and smiled nonchalantly:
"The plan failed."
Seeing that Ban's expression was not right, Hei Zetsu quickly said:
"Madara-sama, your plan to impersonate a Root ninja and hunt down Haneda was a success."
"At present, Haneda is unconscious in a river. White Zetsu is watching him. His life is not in danger for now."
Listening to Black Zetsu's report, Madara still had his hand on his cheek. After a few seconds, he raised his head and said:
“They are lucky this time.”
"Let White Zetsu send Haneda to Nagato to test his opinion on peace."
…………
The next morning, Konoha.
When Asuma and Kurenai Yuhi returned safely to the Land of Fire, the news that Haneda was missing in the Land of Rain reached Konoha.
The Sandaime blocked the news immediately.
This information must not be known by the Uchiha people, otherwise no one knows how serious the consequences will be!
His own son was fine, but Haneda was missing.
Who knows what the Uchiha people will think, and how the other ninjas of Konoha will view him as the Hokage.
If those who are friendly with Haneda unite...
The Uchiha clan, Sakumo, Dai, Minato, Kushina...
The Sandaime couldn't imagine how serious the consequences would be.
Even if you know that such a result is unlikely to occur, what if it does?
The Sandaime took a puff of cigarette, calmed down, and said to the Anbu hidden in the office:
"Notify Jiraiya, Might Dai, and Namikaze Minato to immediately lead a team to the Rain Country to find the whereabouts of Uchiha Haneda, and inform them that this is a confidential mission and is strictly prohibited from telling anyone."
"Also, have the ANBU captain lead ten teams to rush to the Rain Country. The mission objective is the same as Dai, Minato and the others."
"In a word, if you want to see someone alive, you want to see a corpse if you die!"
Suddenly, the Sandaime remembered something and said to another ANBU:
"Have Elder Danzo come to my office."
…………
A quarter of an hour later.
Danzo opened the door of the Hokage's office and said directly to the Sandaime:
"Hiruzen, is there anything important you need me to take care of?"
Danzo knew Sarutobi Hiruzen too well.
As the Hokage in the sunshine, the Sandaime needs to lead the Root to deal with inconvenient and overly dark things.
Now that Hiruzen has asked him to come here personally, it must be that he wants his help with something very important.
"Danzo, I need you to do me a favor."
"Just last night, Team 9 led by Sakumo suddenly encountered two unknown strong men."
"One of them is a puppeteer who made the Third Kazekage into a puppet."
"The other one is a rebel ninja from Takigakure Village. He has a strange body structure and at least three hearts."
"After the battle, Sakumo was poisoned and injured, and Haneda was missing..."
When hearing the news that the inherently evil Uchiha brat was missing, Danzo's eyes flashed with a hint of joy.
It’s good that Uchiha Haneda is missing, it’s really good!!
But Danzo was happy too early, the Sandaime had the second half of the sentence.
"I need you to help me find news about Haneda, Danzo, and bring him back to Konoha at all costs."
When Danzo heard this, his face turned pale.
"what?!"
"Huruzen! You asked me to save that naturally evil Uchiha brat Haneda?!!"
Danzo said incredulously.
"This is not a request, it's an order!"
"Remember, Danzo, I am the Hokage!!"
The Sandaime said in a rare strong tone.
???
Under Danzo's increasingly confused gaze, the Sandaime spoke again:
"This kid Haneda is connected to too many people."
"Including the Uchiha clan, including Sakumo, Dai, Minato, and even the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Kushina."
"For Konoha, Danzo, the good of the village is above personal feelings."
Upon hearing the seriousness of the matter, Danzo's face turned even darker, and he looked extremely aggrieved.
He, the leader of the Root, the absolute executor of the Nidaime's policy towards the Uchiha, actually wanted to save an Uchiha brat...
A feeling of absurdity surged in Danzo's heart.
But for the sake of Konoha, and to secure Hiruzen's position as Hokage, he, Danzo Shimura, had to agree.
It even requires absolute execution and abandonment of all personal emotions.
Danzo gnashed his teeth and said:
"Okay! I will lead the Root to find the whereabouts of Uchiha Haneda, Hiruzen!!"
