Chapter 161 A letter of help from the Daimyo of the Land of Fields, a special relationship independe

In Longmen Town.

Just when Orochimaru and his apprentice were immersed in the joy of studying ninjutsu, a letter for help from the Land of Rice was delivered to Orochimaru through the communication white snake.

"What happened?"

Seeing the teacher's worried look, Liuyun asked curiously.

"The Land of Field has been invaded by the Land of Thunder, and there are also many bandits from the Land of Earth who are burning, killing and looting in their country..."

Orochimaru calmly stated the contents of the letter.

"Didn't Konoha stand up for them? After all, the bulk of the missions in the Land of Rice have always been on Konoha's side..." Liuyun asked in confusion.

"Perhaps it is because most of the domestic missions were assigned to Konoha that the Hidden Cloud Village was dissatisfied..."

"The Daimyo of the Land of Rice said that Konoha was only willing to provide escort forces because the risk of war was too high, and was unable to provide ninja forces to repel the invaders from the other two countries..."

Orochimaru explained with a deadpan expression.

"Hehe... Konoha has sold out the Land of Rice... What a pity for such a high-quality sponsor." Liuyun shook his head and laughed.

The Land of Rice actually signed an alliance with Konoha, and one of the clauses of the alliance was to ensure that the Land of Rice would not be invaded.

The Land of Rice provides Konoha with a huge amount of protection fees every year, and most of the tasks are given to Konoha ninjas, who can earn another huge amount of mission commissions.

Konoha's actions will definitely dishearten the Daimyo of the Land of Rice. If they are pushed to the limit, it is possible that they will defect to the Hidden Cloud Village. After all, nothing is more important than the stability of a country.

"The Daimyo of Tianzhiguo wrote to you. Could it be that he wants you to help Tianzhiguo repel the enemy?" Liuyun finally reacted at this time.

This guy Orochimaru has an unclear relationship with the Daimyo of the Land of Rice, and he deliberately wrote a letter to him. His intention is obvious!

But Orochimaru is now on the battlefield in the Land of Rain, so how can he have the time to help the other party?

The consequences of leaving one's post without permission are very serious, and it is still wartime. If he leaves his combat post and is discovered, even the Third Hokage may not be able to save Orochimaru.

"Well, he agreed to many of my conditions, on the condition that I help him repel the invaders." Orochimaru nodded slightly.

"What conditions?"

Liuyun couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"Money, venue, manpower, material resources..." Orochimaru glanced at him and only gave a vague idea.

This is his own apprentice, and he feels that this apprentice is the same type of person as himself, otherwise he might not reveal a single word.

At this time, he already had the idea of ​​building a biological research laboratory.

If you want to build a high-standard qualified laboratory, the financial investment at each stage is definitely not something that one person can afford. There must be a country willing to support him.

The Daimyo of the Land of Rice expressed his willingness to support Orochimaru in the letter because he felt that Orochimaru was reliable and was willing to trust him, provided that Orochimaru could help him solve the domestic crisis and troubles.

"..."

"So you really plan to go over and help him solve the problem? If you leave your combat post without the Hokage's consent, you might be beheaded..." Liuyun reminded with his eyes wide open.

Orochimaru was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then his hesitant face gradually became firm and serious: "I need your help, Liuyun-kun!"

"!!!"

"The Fire Rain battlefield is relatively stable for now. Perhaps we can go to the Land of Fields and come back. We should have enough time..."

Orochimaru looked at him seriously.

"Whether it is stable or not, and whether it is in time or not, is decided by Hanzo of the Salamander. What if the Rain Ninja suddenly comes to seize Longmen Town during this period..." Liuyun questioned, stroking his forehead.

"..."

Orochimaru couldn't refute this possibility, but in the end he shook his head slightly and still decided to go to the Land of Rice Fields.

"We can't let the Land of Rice fall to the Hidden Cloud Village. This will not only be disadvantageous to Konoha, but also a great loss for me. I need to leave the Land of Rain for a few days. Are you willing to take the risk to help me?"

Orochimaru stared at him intently.

"Since the teacher has said so, how can I not help? This is not the first time I have risked my life..." Liuyun rolled his eyes, looking a little helpless.

"Haha, then let's set off immediately without further delay!" Orochimaru laughed hoarsely. There was no need to be polite between master and disciple.

"It's better to leave a shadow clone and find a reason to tell Brother Jiraiya or Sister Tsunade, in case the Rain Ninja really comes to kill us and the commander-in-chief can't find anyone and can't give a reason..." Liuyun reminded cautiously.

Orochimaru nodded when he heard this: "I know, and this trip to the Land of Rice Fields must be kept absolutely confidential, including our identities cannot be revealed..."

"I'll tell you the details on the way..."

So, the master and the disciple each left behind a shadow clone, and then secretly crossed half of the Fire Kingdom and rushed to the Field Kingdom at full speed without telling anyone on the battlefield in the Rain Kingdom.

After two days of forced march, the two finally arrived at the territory of Tian Country, and soon after, they met the Daimyo of Tian Country.

"Haha, I didn't expect you to actually come, and you came so quickly. You are indeed worthy of being me. You never let me down!"

The Daimyo of Tianzhikuni waved away the guards and maids around him, looked at the two tall and thin men wearing masks in front of him, and smiled with great satisfaction.

Orochimaru and Ryuun took off their masks, revealing their cold true faces.

"My time is very limited. After repelling the invaders from the two countries, can Konoha complete the subsequent defense mission and prevent the two countries of Raito from invading again?"

Orochimaru didn't waste any words and got straight to the point.

"I have discussed this with the Third Hokage through letters. He said that as long as the Land of Rice can drive away the invaders on its own, they are willing to provide follow-up guarantees to ensure that the Land of Rice will not be invaded again..."

"You in Konoha don't dare to lie to me again about this. Otherwise, I don't mind joining the Land of Lightning. Even though it will cost a huge price, it is better than being betrayed by allies repeatedly. I can't pay so much protection fee every year in vain..."

The Daimyo of the Land of Rice gave an affirmative answer and once again expressed his dissatisfaction with Konoha.

"We are us, and Konoha is Konoha. Don't always confuse them. You should know this when you write to me."

Orochimaru ignored his complaints and spoke expressionlessly.

"Yes, yes, it's my fault, I should be slapped in the face!" The Daimyo of Tian Kingdom said as he gently slapped his own mouth, as a way of showing his attitude to Orochimaru.

This letter from the Daimyo of the Land of Rice completely passed over Konoha and was specifically delivered to Orochimaru. In essence, this was a matter between him and Orochimaru and had nothing to do with Konoha.

"Is all the information ready?"

"Everything is ready, including the accompanying ninjas, there are 200 of them, just waiting for you to lead the team to repel those damn invaders!"

The ninjas mentioned by the Daimyo of Tianguo did not belong to the Hidden Leaf Village, but their own local ninja forces, of which the majority were Genin, a small portion were Chunin, and there were only two Jonin...
