Chapter 123: Initiating the Wood Escape Plan
Konoha.
In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mito Kadeni, Koharu Shimura and Danzo Shimura, all the top management of Konoha gathered.
Obviously the war is over, but everyone's face is still heavy.
"Because this war did not release ambition and strength, the ninja world seems to be peaceful, but it is still on the edge of war. Now it is just a trigger..."
First of all, Sarutobi Hiruzen, the third Hokage, had a solemn expression and put all the situation in the ninja world on the bright side.
In other words, the so-called Second Ninja World War ended in an anticlimactic manner, and with just a spark, it would be revived.
In this solemn atmosphere, Danzo Shimura said coldly:
"Sarutobi, first maintain the stability of the ninja world, and the roots will do their best to provoke fights in other ninja villages, such as the conflict between Iwagakure and Kumogakure..."
Even Danzo Shimura of the martial arts sect is very clear about the situation of Konoha facing four major ninja villages at once.
Mastering the darkest root, Shimura Danzo chose the most difficult task. This scene made Sarutobi Hiruzen look pleased and nodded solemnly.
"Please Danzo, in the meantime the ANBU will cooperate with the Roots."
All the major ninja villages in the ninja world are dirty, and provoking war is what the major ninjas are best at doing.
Seeing the common bond between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo in times of crisis, Mito Kadoen and Kaden Koharu also showed rare expressions of relief.
"But there is one more thing right now! The Wood Escape Plan!"
However, Shimura Danzo, who had just looked like he was willing to sacrifice for Konoha, suddenly changed his words, with a sinister look in his eyes, and directly mentioned the key issue at hand.
Faced with this matter, Mito Kadoen and Koharu, who had transferred to the dormitory, also looked solemn and said solemnly: "Hiruzen! Do you really want to activate it? Once the Senju gets this power again, in Uchiha Under his influence, it may bring turmoil to Konoha!"
Instinctively, they seem to be used to giving Uchiha shit. As long as it affects them and is related to Uchiha, they will always find opportunities.
Compared to the two people who were hypocritically making excuses for themselves, Danzo Shimura seemed to be a real villain. He said coldly:
"Hiruzhan, although the Senju clan's participation this time was in the plan, Tsunade unexpectedly agreed. Although the Senju are weak now, they are united in this matter.
Once Thousand Hands gets involved in the Wood Escape Plan, this power will be uncontrollable! "
Although they proposed the Wood Release plan, based on their previous analysis, it was impossible for Tsunade to agree to it, and even their opportunity was used to split the Senju.
After all, given Tsunade's character, once she disagrees, those members of the Senju clan who want to regain their former glory will be dissatisfied, and then there will be disagreements.
Unexpectedly, Tsunade unexpectedly agreed. In this way, their plan to divide and weaken the Senju's power completely failed.
There is even a vague feeling of being out of control.
The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen also frowned solemnly at this time, and then said in a deep voice:
"We all know Tsunade's character well, and it's impossible to agree with her, but it's unexpected..."
"Hiruzhan, you mean there is someone behind you!" After Koharu's words, the expressions of everyone in the office suddenly darkened. They thought of one person.
Mito Uzumaki!
Only she can persuade Tsunade, and only she can have such a big influence!
In the depressing office, Hiruzen Sarutobi was the first to speak out after exhaling a puff of smoke.
"The Wood Escape Plan must be carried out. Since Tsunade agrees, it is natural that she should be the person in charge of this plan..."
"Hiruzen! This is too dangerous!" Before Sarutobi Hiruzen could finish his words, Mito Kadoen and Koharu Koharu immediately slapped the table and rejected the proposal.
If the Thousand Hands Clan were at their peak of power and could master Mu Dun again, they would only have fear in their minds.
"Tsunade is so impulsive. If this power is in the hands of the Senju, there will be turmoil in Konoha and even the ninja world!"
Mito Kado and Koharu, who had transferred to the dormitory, instinctively regarded this kind of power that did not belong to them and could not be controlled as a danger to the village.
On the contrary, looking at the objections of the two, Shimura Danzo sneered.
"Are you already afraid of this and that before the plan even starts? Since the Mudun restart plan is led by Root this time, Tsunade is just the person in charge, and the final result will only be in the hands of Konoha!"
When he saw Shimura Danzo's resolute look, Sarutobi Hiruzen breathed a rare sigh of relief, with a hint of relief in his eyes.
Sure enough, Danzo must be relied upon at the critical moment.
To control the dark roots of Konoha is to deal with these shady things!
"Duanzo, the wooden escape plan must be carried out. You are responsible for keeping an eye on it and it must not be out of control."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's firm yet ambiguous tone clearly meant that Danzo was given full authority to do whatever he wanted.
The tacit cooperation between the two has long been engraved in their bones. Danzo Shimura knew it well, and something happened anyway.
"Don't worry, everything in the Mudun research project is carried out in the root laboratory. No one can take anything away from the root laboratory!"
Danzo Shimura sneered, Tsunade came just in time and could speed up the progress of the experiment. As for the results? How could it be given to others.
As long as he masters the power of Wood Release, the Hokage will be his!
Sarutobi Hiruzen also nodded secretly. The power of wood escape is not that easy to master. The second generation Hokage studied it before giving up in the end.
If there is any result, everything is under the nose of ANBU, and the final result is still in his hands.
As for Senju?
Contacting Senju from the very beginning to discuss restarting the Mudun plan was just to make things look good in front of him. After all, Senju was still there now, so he still had to get their approval.
If there were not so many wealthy secret arts families in Konoha, something would happen if they really wanted to study it privately.
…
A small town in the Land of Rain.
Under the dark sky, drizzle kept falling.
"Nagato, your parents were killed by Konoha ninjas, right?"
The calm voice echoed, but with a sense of certainty. This made Nagato, who had just finished training in the forest, suddenly stunned, while Konan on the side showed an anxious look, not knowing what to do.
However, looking at Uchiha Ye who was leaning against the big tree and looking at him calmly, Nagato felt bitter in his heart. During this time, he had really regarded the other person as an important person to him.
"yes!"
As the hoarse voice echoed, Nagato's heart was filled with bitterness. He didn't know what was waiting for him next, but he didn't want to lie to the person who led him to find the direction of his life.
However, the scene he imagined did not appear. Uchiha Ye, who was leaning in front of the big tree, looked at the gloomy sky with a melancholy face.
"Wars brought about by greed and desire satisfy careerists, but ordinary people are the ones who are hurt the most. I'm sorry for your experience, Nagato."
When he saw that Uchiha Ye did not pursue the matter, Nagato's eyes suddenly became moist for some reason, and Konan on the side showed gratitude.
Uchiha Ye is her most important person, and Nagato is also her companion.
"You should have noticed it during this time." The calm voice echoed, which made Nagato and Konan's faces darken. They naturally noticed it.
During this period, Konoha continued to withdraw from the war zone, the Kingdom of Rain was in chaos, and Uchiha Ye began to teach them ninjutsu.
The previous training for them to become ninjas was only basic ninjas. Even ordinary people know the importance of ninjutsu.
"I'm going back to Konoha, you two..."
When he said this, Uchiha Ye slowly lowered his head and looked at the two of them, and finally his eyes fell on Nagato. He shook his head and said:
"I'm sorry Nagato, I can't take you back to Konoha."
This sentence made Nagato tremble, but a warm current emerged in his heart. Then he brushed aside his red hair, revealing a pair of mysterious purple samsara eyes.
"Brother Ye, is it because of these eyes?"
Since the Rinnegan Eyes were revealed, Uchiha Ye had told him how legendary and powerful these eyes were, so he knew exactly why.
"In this ninja world full of fights, even my village may not be as beautiful as you imagined. If I take you back, I can't protect you."
"Brother Ye, if possible, I can give these eyes to you!"
Nagato said sincerely, but he didn't know how much impact these words had on the secret White Zetsu, and his eyes widened.
Does this mean you can give it away if you give it away?
"Idiot, stop saying stupid things."
Uchiha Ye suddenly said with a smile, then took out the red book from the ninja bag and threw it directly.
"In the latest issue, I wrote that if the legendary reincarnation eye appears, it will definitely bring changes to the ninja world. Don't let me down. Practice hard so that I can see the legendary legend that can calm down troubled times in the future. How strong the eyes are.”
Looking at the book in his hand, Nagato's eyes were a little moist, "Brother Ye, me!"
"I have taught you everything I should teach you. I have only one request for you, that is, since you have these eyes, you will definitely bring changes to the ninja world. So my request is not to be limited to one village, One country!”
When he said this, Uchiha Ye even squinted his eyes and looked at the sky in the distance. The clouds in the distance dispersed, revealing the morning sun.
"Your eyes should be on the entire ninja world, just like the rising sun. Your eyes will definitely bring light and dawn to the ninja world!"
dawn!
Uchiha Ye's firm voice echoed, making the red-haired Nagato look dull. He never thought that Uchiha Ye had such great expectations for him.
However, looking at the sun rising in the distance, he was shocked and a little scared at the same time.
He was afraid that he would not be able to fulfill Brother Ye's expectations for him. He had never dreamed of changing the ninja world. He just wanted to protect his companions and live an ordinary life like this.
Under Uchiha Ye's firm look, he sighed secretly when he saw the looks in Konan and Nagato's eyes.
Sure enough, these two people never had such big ideals.
In the original work, Yahiko is the one with ideals and ambitions. After Yahiko's death, Nagato just inherited this legacy out of painful guilt, and Konan just wanted to protect his companions.
"A gift before leaving."
At this moment, Uchiha laughed and threw a crystal box casually. When Nagato received it, he looked at the gift in a daze.
But Uchiha Ye smiled, crossed his arms, and joked:
"Contact lenses specially prepared for you. Remember not to expose your eyes in front of outsiders unless you change the strength of the ninja world. Otherwise, it will only lead to disaster."
Facing Uchiha Ye's solemn warning, Nagato felt warm in his heart when he lowered his head and looked at the gift in his palm.
Brother Ye was unmoved by the Samsara Eye, the legendary eye of an immortal, and even taught him ninjutsu.
At this moment, a funny and hearty laugh came from the distance, causing Uchiha Ye to look back at the river in the distance speechlessly.
I saw Yahiko following Jiraiya with an adoring look on his face, learning ordinary ninja training.
When Nagato saw this scene, he seemed to be wary and had already put on disguised contact lenses when he lowered his head.
"Yahiko! Jiraiya!"
When he saw the two of them, Uchiha Ye couldn't help but narrowed his eyes. Could it be that it was fate?
This Yahiko actually met Jiraiya. Judging from this situation, Jiraiya was obviously guiding the other person in his cultivation.
"Haha, boy from the Uchiha clan, I heard that you are going back?"
Jiraiya, who jumped from the water, couldn't help laughing heartily when he saw Uchiha Night Queen, while Yahiko followed behind him and gasped for air.
"Jiraiya-senpai, what are you doing?"
Nowadays, Uchiha Ye's prestige and strength no longer require him to call Jiraiya "sama".
Jiraiya didn't care about this title. Instead, he laughed naturally. This is Uchiha. When he has strength, he will be on an equal footing with you without you having to say anything.
"Haha, Tsunade and Orochimaru are going back to the village, leaving me alone in the Land of Rain. Since this child is also a victim of the war, I will accept him as a disciple and teach them how to survive. "
When Jiraiya was laughing and talking, Yahiko stood up respectfully and saluted Uchiha Yami: "Ya-sama!"
Then Yahiko turned his attention to Nagato and Konan, and the three of them also very wisely chose to leave private space for the two of them.
Leaning on the big tree, Jiraiya couldn't help but sigh melancholy.
"Time flies so fast, but the war is finally over."
Uchiha Ye also nodded slightly, but he didn't think so.
"But this time the war ended too hastily. The ninja world seems to have returned to before the war. Otherwise, the Rain Kingdom would not have withdrawn its troops so quickly..."
Uchiha Ye bluntly stated the current situation. Konoha did not want to cause trouble, but it was also reluctant to part with the resources of the Land of Rain.
Therefore, many ninjas were dispatched before Ming Dynasty, but in fact some important areas were still controlled by people.
Loot resources! The ninja world has always been like this.
Jiraiya sighed melancholy, this was war, and he had to stay and be responsible for exploring the information about the Kingdom of Rain.
And Uchiha glanced at Jiraiya calmly. In the original book, this person stayed to teach the three of them for three years because of his so-called kindness?
You must know that at that time, Jiraiya had not yet discovered Nagato's Rinnegan, and the situation in the ninja world was not very good.
So Jiraiya stayed in the Rain Ninja Village and still shouldered the mission of Konoha.
One is to spy on the information of the Rain Country, and the other is also the commander in charge of the Konoha ninjas in the Rain Country.
After all, in comparison, Tsunade belongs to the Senju clan, and Orochimaru has to go back to do other things. Only Jiraiya's character is the most reliable.
While Uchiha Ye and Jiraiya were communicating, Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan were also talking and laughing by the lake.
Thank you brothers for your support.
