Chapter 217 The encirclement against Konoha

  Konoha, in today's ninja world, is undoubtedly the biggest beneficiary and defender of the current order, so naturally he has no idea of ​​ruining his job.

  At least, there is no need to lose face for a mere iron country.

  The easiest way is to say a few high-sounding words, use force as a deterrent, and dignifiedly divide the cake made by Kusanagi Village and eat the ready-made peaches.

  After Shikahisa Nara brought up this topic, Koharu and Ito Mito also echoed their words, giving the impression that everything is in my hands.

   It’s not their arrogance. Kusanagi Village’s ability to do all of this, the two Hokage consultants know well, and the combat power of a tailed beast alone is obviously unable to deal with Konoha’s actions.

  The third generation shook his head, and ordered his subordinates to take out a map of the ninja world, spread it out on the long table, and clicked on the country of grass, the country of taki, and the country of iron in turn.

"The grass ninjas wiped out the Taki ninja village and destroyed the samurai's village. Now they have connected the three small countries into one piece, and have even begun to recruit a large number of wandering ninjas to expand the strength of the village. They can no longer be treated in the same way as before. "

"But so what?" Zhuanzhu Xiaochun asked, "It's just a group of wandering ninjas. Due to the dispersion of personnel, the strength is weak..."

From her point of view, Cao Ninja Village's way of doing things is too radical. Tailed beast-level combat power can not only be used for fighting, but also used as a deterrent, slowly encroaching on the land of neighboring countries, the effect is better. That's the way to do business.

   Right now, the group of samurai has indeed been solved once and for all, but it is still unclear whether they can really eat Konoha, and there is a high probability that they made wedding dresses for others.

  Oshemaru let out a sneer when he heard Zhuanju Xiaochun's words,

   "You don't understand what the old man means. This is not at all a question of whether Kusanagi Village can deal with Konoha. They have already shown their strength, and someone will come to help them next."

   "In the ninja world, Konoha has more than one enemy."

  The expressions of the two Naruto consultants changed, and their eyes turned to the map on the desktop.

Indeed, nowadays, the buffer countries of the Land of Fire and the Land of Earth have changed from the previous three to one, and Kusanagi Village is ambitious, obviously it will not stop there, obediently lie low in front of Konoha, they The best thing to do is...

   "Hehe... the old man received some news."

  Danzo, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke in a hoarse voice, "The day before yesterday, a group of grass ninja arrived in Yanyin Village secretly."

  After going to bed, Koharu and Mito Menyan heard the words, and their complexions suddenly became gloomy.

   It is reasonable and not surprising to combine vertical and horizontal alliances and win over the relatively weak Yanyin Village to fight against the powerful Konoha.

   What made the two of them irritated, and even a little embarrassing, was that Danzang received the news, but they didn't.

  Konoha’s underground intelligence personnel, how many do Danzo still have?

Of course, this issue is not suitable for discussion now. What Konoha needs to think about at present is: with the country of earth, and even the country of thunder that may be backed up in the future, whether the village should continue to send troops, or let Kusanagi continue Expand like this?

  The two counselor elders have always been conservative, and this time is no exception.

   It’s okay to bully a Grass Ninja Village, but it’s not worthwhile to escalate the conflict with Yanyin Village for the benefit of the Iron Country.

  The country of fire has a solid foundation, so there is no need to do this.

   But if you just think about it that way, it would be too superficial.

  The third generation was noncommittal to the opinions of the two, glanced at Danzo from the corner of the eye, and sighed slightly in his heart.

  Although suppressing Danzo and the roots is the correct approach in line with Konoha’s interests, there are always pros and cons. Without Danzo, the militant faction, the conservative forces in the village will greatly rise.

  As a Hokage, one cannot express one's position easily. Sometimes, one even has to adapt to the situation and be dominated by it.

   After pondering for a moment, Sandai glanced over Nara Shikaku, who was not suitable for speaking, and landed on Orochimaru.

  If possible, he didn't want to hand over this matter to Orochimaru. It can be expected that although Orochimaru has no problems in general, he will not be satisfied with the details.

   But right now, apart from Orochimaru, there is no suitable candidate.

   Tsunade and Jiraiya, the former is emotional, the latter is casual, and may not even be able to see the situation clearly, and the other ninja patriarchs are somewhat insufficient.

  Oshemaru blinked, as if he understood the eyes of the third generation, with a nasty smile on his face.

  He interrupted Xiaochun's discussion, and under the dissatisfied gaze of the other party, he took out the pen he had always kept in reserve from his cuff.

   rustle rustle...

The tip of the pen fell on the map, and followed the drawing three generations ago, the "River Country" that borders the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire, and the "Nation of Soup" and "Nation of Sound" that border the Land of Thunder and Fire Include everything and outline a circle, or in other words, a 'circle'.

   After finishing, Orochimaru put the pen back into the cuff, looked around, and finally landed on Zhuanju Xiaochun, said slowly,

   "Now, you still want to say that Kusanagi Village's behavior has nothing to do with Konoha?"

  Ban Zhuan Xiaochun glanced at the map, and instantly understood the meaning of Orochimaru. As long as everyone present had no problem with their brains, they could understand it, very clear at a glance.

  But understanding does not mean understanding or belief.

  Ban Zhuan Xiaochun frowned, "As for Kusanagi Village, you also want to surround Konoha?"

  This is also the voice of most people. It is not that they look down on Cao Ren Village, but the reality is that the strength of Cao Ren Village does not support them to do these things at all.

   "It seems that you still don't understand what I said before."

  The corner of Orochimaru's mouth curled into an arc, and he sneered, "Kusunin Village doesn't need to fight against Konoha, as long as it has the ability to destroy these small countries and rule them, support from other places is absolutely indispensable."

   "The Land of Earth, the Land of Thunder, and even the Land of Wind, they will be very happy. Having a military barrier like Cao Ninja Village can save a lot of garrison expenses."

   "And after that, guess what they'll do with the money?"

   Orochimaru smiled, "Think differently, anyway, I am very inclined that they will make some trouble for Konoha."

  The two Naruto consultants opened their mouths, but they were speechless to refute, and the others present also fell silent.

  If Kusanagi Village's actions are allowed to go unchecked, it may really develop to this point, and the probability is quite high.

  Of course Konoha will not be destroyed by this, but there is no doubt that it will be quite uncomfortable.

   Being rich in assets does not mean having everything. If resources are blocked, the Kingdom of Fire will definitely lose its previous prosperity.

   "So, this war must be fought." Orochimaru glanced at everyone, "It doesn't matter what the country of iron is, but we must destroy the ambitions of Kusanagi."
