Chapter 284 Withdrawal
"By the way, what's the matter with you coming here today?"
Seeing that Anko was almost crippled by his deception, Toshiro stopped teasing the little girl, put aside his jokes and asked her about the purpose of coming here this time.
Although the other party is always looking for trouble for him, under normal circumstances, he will not come to look for trouble for him at this time.
"this is for you!"
"This is what Orochimaru-sensei asked me to give to you!"
While saying this, Anko also threw a scroll to Toshiro.
"coming!"
Taking the scroll and turning a blind eye to the curiosity on Anko's face, Toshiro walked towards his tent.
"Hmph! Sneaky~"
After complaining casually, Anko stopped caring about Toshiro and walked towards her teacher's tent with a worried look on her face.
She wanted to verify whether what the other party said was correct...
"Uncle Snake is indeed very reliable!"
In his tent, he unfolded the scroll in his hand. Toshiro looked at the ninjutsu recorded on it and was quite satisfied.
It seems that my opening method is wrong.
Uncle Snake is pretty good to get along with. As long as he gives you enough benefits, there is still no shortage of ninjutsu and the like.
Just like this one in my hand.
Since arriving at this camp, Toshiro has discovered that Orochimaru often uses his shadow clone to catch fish. Knowing this, he intentionally or unintentionally hunted down some bloody ninjas.
When handing over, he skipped Konoha's logistics staff and handed it over to Orochimaru's direct subordinates. After many times, the other party became more open-minded and would give Toshiro some ninjutsu that he was interested in from time to time.
There was a tacit understanding between the two parties, and the transaction went on like this for several months without even any communication.
Toshiro and Orochimaru both got what they wanted.
…
"Shisui! Are you sure you don't want to go back with us?"
In the frontline camp, Toshiro looked at Uchiha Shisui opposite him and talked about whether the other party would stay or leave.
"Well! I plan to stay here and use my own power to protect Konoha!"
"Konoha has not fallen to the point where a child like you is the only one, so you should come back to the village with me!"
"I heard that the Fourth Hokage will take over the throne soon. Why don't you go back with us to see the new Hokage of Konoha?"
"this……"
Hearing Toshiro's words, Shisui was obviously hesitant. It seemed like a good thing to go back and meet the new Konoha Hokage, but...
"Sorry, Toshiro-senpai, I promised the Sandaime Hokage to use my own hands to protect Konoha's companions."
"The war here is not over yet. I decided to stay here and use my own eyes to take a good look at what war is."
"This is what my senior taught me!"
"Uh~"
"Okay! But you have to be careful. Fighting here is not very beneficial to us Uchiha."
Unexpectedly, the other party actually used his own words as a shield to convince himself.
Seeing the other party's resolute attitude, he didn't try to persuade him. None of my own tribesmen would listen to the advice of others, and I couldn't beat them up because of this.
After giving some instructions, he stood up and prepared to leave the camp.
Since the Nohara Rin incident, Sunagakure Village in the Country of Wind, forced by its own economic strength, finally accepted Konoha's 'war commission'.
Reluctantly, he started a war with Kirigakure Village in the Land of Water.
And with this helper, Konoha can finally say that the Third Ninja War has basically passed.
For nearly seven or eight years, he was first attacked by the Sand Ninja Village and directly attacked near Mount Kikyo, and then fought with the Iwagakure Village of the Earth Country for two or three years in the Country of Grass.
Finally, through the battle of Kannabi, the other party was forced to sign a peace agreement.
Although there are still Kumogakure Village and Kirigakure Village, the two directions have not been completely settled, but one of them is fighting fiercely with the Iwa Ninja Village, and the other is entangled by the Sand Ninja Village.
For Konoha, it is not cost-effective to deploy a large number of ninja legions in the Bear Country camp.
Taking advantage of the situation, a large number of manpower was transferred back to the village for rest.
Not only Toshiro, but also Orochimaru, and a large number of Konoha ninjas were on the list of people evacuating this time.
What Toshiro didn't expect was that Shisui, this guy, actually chose to stay here and continue to contribute his strength to Konoha.
…
At the same time, a debate also started in the conference room in the Hokage Building.
"No, I don't agree with Minato Namikaze being the Fourth Hokage."
"He can't even comfort a Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki. How can he be qualified to be Hokage? Moreover, he is too young."
"I propose that Orochimaru take over the position of the Third Hokage. The other party has more advantages than the young Namikaze Minato in terms of age and experience."
After hearing the Sandaime's words, although he was prepared, Shimura Danzo still jumped out to object.
There was no good excuse, so he could only talk about Kushina's problems.
"Especially the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki. Everyone here also knows what happened to me last time when I was injured!"
"I guess you don't want this kind of thing to happen to you."
Age is not the opponent's disadvantage, but may become the opponent's advantage. Danzo Shimura has completely forgotten the reason why he was seriously injured last time.
His self-exposure of his shortcomings this time aroused discussion among everyone present. In any case, Danzo was also an elder and was seriously injured by Kushina, which still made these elders hesitate.
They had all seen the opponent's outburst before. If they wanted to do this to him, they didn't have Danzo's physique, so they would probably go find the Sage of Six Paths on their own.
"What happened last time also happened for a reason. Because of Nohara Rin's incident, Kushina lost some control over her emotions for a while. This is understandable."
"Moreover, Namikaze Minato was not around at the time. If he had been around, things would not have developed to this point."
"As for Orochimaru~"
The Sandaime was hesitant to speak as he held his bamboo hat up.
His 'loved disciple' and Danzo are getting closer and closer, and his temperament has changed drastically recently. As a teacher, he is a little unsure of what the other person is thinking.
"Orochimaru is not suitable to be the Fourth Hokage!"
After thinking for a long time, the Sandaime Hokage just gave this conclusion and skipped Orochimaru.
And not only him, but also many elders here also agreed with the Sandaime Hokage's point of view.
It's just that their ideas are obviously different from the third generation. They felt that it was not in the interests of themselves and others to have a strong person like the Fourth Hokage.
Moreover, Orochimaru was not as easy to talk to as Namikaze Minato, so he and others probably would not take his opinions seriously at all.
