Chapter 46 Orochimaru’s suggestion

"What, the plan failed?"

In the large tent in the center of the Kirigakure front camp, the baby-faced Fourth Mizukage Yagura suddenly stood up and slapped the table hard. Bang, the table instantly fell apart.

"Yes, although I don't want to admit it, it is the fact."

"The ninja responsible for covering found that the ANBU did not contact them on time. They suspected that something had happened and sent people to look for it."

"Two teams of Anbu ninja were found on a cliff at the edge of a forest and all were killed."

"And... and..."

"And what?"

Yagura stared at the ANBU minister in front of him with an angry expression and asked in a deep voice.

"And most of the ANBU ninjas died in the Wood Release!"

"What? Died by wood escape?"

As the fourth generation of Kirigakure Village, Yagura is naturally no stranger to the wooden escape used by the ninja god Senju Hashirama. There are special records in Kirigakure Village.

Yagura sat back on the chair and muttered to himself: "Is there another ninja who has awakened the Wood Release in Konoha?"

"It can make two ANBU troops unable to escape. Even if this level of wood escape is not recorded in the files, it cannot be underestimated."

The power of wood escape recorded in the file made Yagura feel frightened from the bottom of his heart, and even made Yagura suspect that it was simply an exaggeration.

How could any human possess that level of power?

"How is the Three-Tailed Jinchuuriki doing?"

After forcing himself to calm down, Yagura asked with some anxiety.

If the three-tailed Jinchuuriki were fine and returned to Konoha's frontline camp to be reinforced and sealed, it would be a heavy loss.

Regardless of the failure of the plan, Konoha will have one more tailed beast, and they will have one less Kirigakure.

Moreover, I am not as confident as I used to be when facing other ninja villages. Just thinking about it makes me regretful and want to bang my head against the wall!

"The scene was in chaos and it was difficult to find useful clues. Because I knew the importance of the Three-Tails, I used senior spies lurking on the front lines of Konoha."

"Because the incident happened suddenly, I am afraid that deliberately inquiring about the senior spy may be exposed. Please forgive me, Mizukage-sama."

Every high-level spy is hard-earned. Even if he is in a key position, he still has a certain status and has access to a lot of useful intelligence.

The ANBU minister has the power to use high-level spies, but he needs to report to Mizukage in advance. It is obviously taboo to make his own decisions.

It is self-evident what the fate of the exposed spies will be, and it will not end well anyway.

"Huh, it depends on whether you bring me good news or bad news."

"If there's bad news and the plan fails, you won't have to be the head of ANBU anymore."

The head of the Kirigakure ANBU cursed in his mind. It's not my idea. I just executed it according to your arrangement. Is the failure of the plan all the fault of the executor?

Fortunately, the news he got was good news, and his position was saved.

"According to the information sent back, the girl who sealed the Three-Tailed Jinchuuriki is dead."

When Yagura heard this, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, just die, just die.

When the Jinchuuriki dies, the Three-Tails will also die, but after a while the Three-Tails will be resurrected, and they in Kirigakure Village still have a chance to retrieve the Three-Tails.

Yagura had no idea that because of this cause and effect, he would become a puppet with no autonomy in the future, super-doubling the blood mist policy, causing Kirigakure Village to decline to the bottom of the five great ninja villages.

Kirigakure and Sunagakure have become strong contenders for last place.

There are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom. When ancient landlords and bureaucrats dealt with policies that were not beneficial to them, they would often take twice as many countermeasures to disrupt them.

Doubling the implementation will easily disrupt the policy, let alone super doubling it.

The fact that Kirigakure Village has not declined to the point of falling out of the top five ninja villages is because of its good fortune.

"That girl used her strong willpower to gain a certain degree of autonomy, and then took the initiative to hit Kakashi Hatake's Chidori and committed suicide."

Yagura was silent for a while and then said: "He is a good ninja. They chose the wrong target. They should have chosen a ninja who is greedy for life and afraid of death."

"It's not entirely their fault. According to common sense, female ninjas should be easier to control."

"It's too late to say this now. I can only say that fate is better than fate. Konoha's energy is still there, and its fate should not be cut off."

"Mizukage-sama, what should we do next?"

Yagura smiled helplessly and said, "What else can I do?"

"Withdraw the troops and then gather to retreat to the Kingdom of Whirlpool."

"If the plan fails, there is no need to continue fighting in the Country of Fire."

"We and Konoha continue to fight and bleed like this. Kumogakure, Iwagakure, and Sunagakure are happy."

The ANBU minister nodded, and then said worriedly: "But Mizukage-sama, can we defend the Kingdom of Uzumaki?"

"The Kingdom of Whirlpool is in a critical location, and Konoha will never allow us to occupy the Kingdom of Whirlpool alone."

"How about we bring in the Six-Tails Jinchuuriki from the village?"

Yagura was a little moved when he heard this, but then he thought about it and shook his head.

"No, Yugao is only seven years old, and his control over the Vulpix is ​​too poor."

"Once the tailed beast transforms, it will go berserk. If the six-tails break out of the seal, it will be troublesome."

"If Yu Gao is killed, the Six-Tails will be reborn like the Three-Tails. Then there won't be a tailed beast in the village. How can it be done?"

"Hey, try your best to defend it."

"If you really can't hold it, withdraw your troops and let the Kingdom of Whirlpool remain a chaotic zone with no regard for anything like before."

"If Konoha doesn't want to continue fighting, it should maintain a tacit understanding with us."

If the Kingdom of Whirlpool is occupied by Kirigakure, it will become the best bridgehead to attack the Kingdom of Fire, and vice versa.

Of course, with the prosperity of the Fire Country, Konoha did not bother to attack the Water Country, but Kirigakure did not allow this possibility.

"Yes, Mizukage-sama, I'm going to deliver the order."

"Go." Yagura waved his hand feebly.

If the plan failed, he had a hunch that Kirigakure would end up like Iwagakure and the others, unable to gain any land.

"yes."

The ANBU chief put on his mask, turned and left the tent.

At the same time, in the Konoha front camp, in Tsunade's big tent, four commanders plus one Nara Shikaku sat together for a meeting.

Tsunade sat directly above, Orochimaru and Nara Shikaku sat on the left, and Jiraiya and Minato sat on the right.

Namikaze Minato, who usually had a smile on his face, was expressionless at this time, obviously in a very bad mood.

Namikaze Minato has been used to life and death since he became a ninja. Ordinary life and death events cannot shake his mind at all, but Rin, who is also a commoner and is gentle and kind, is obviously not ordinary.

With Namikaze Minato's mature mind and way of thinking, he would naturally not be immersed in Lin's death for a long time like Kakashi.

It won't take long for Namikaze Minato to come out, but the sadness at this time is real.

"Everyone already knows about Nohara Lin, please tell me what you think."

Tsunade sat upright in her seat, with short and medium-length light yellow hair bound by a Konoha forehead protector, a blue-purple diamond-shaped mark between her eyebrows, light yellow thin eyebrows, bright brown eyes, light red lips, and a sky blue inner piercing. Wearing a green bodysuit and a Konoha green vest, she is clean and neat, with a dashing appearance.

"I'll go first."

Everyone was slightly startled when they heard the hoarse and low voice. Shouldn't Minato Namikaze, as a teacher, speak first in such a matter?

No matter how bad it is, it has to be Jiraiya who is the master, right?

"Why, can't you?" Orochimaru said with a half-smile.

"Of course, please, Orochimaru-senpai."

Minato was the only one present who called Orochimaru his senior. His teammates called him by his first name, and Nara Shikaku had to add the word "sama".

"Nohara Rin is undoubtedly a hero, but Kirigakure's intentions are too sinister and vicious."

"In order to avenge the hero, in order to avenge Kirigakure, I suggest that the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki be dispatched!"

During the recommendation period, I strongly encourage you to read it! ! !
