Chapter 219 Being a leader is worse than killing me

   "The village will give you some support."

   "That's not necessary."

  After listening to the words of the third generation, Orochimaru shook his head and laughed, and said slowly,

   "Except for contacting the warriors of the Iron Kingdom and purchasing the corresponding medical supplies, don't think about intervening in other things."

   Saying that, Orochimaru turned his head to look at Danzo, jokingly said,

   "Of course, if Danzo-sama can 'hand over' this surgical method on you, it will be of some use."

   Danzo narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard the words, and didn't take Orochimaru's ridicule seriously, and said slowly,

   "Everything I do is for the sake of the village. If you want this little thing, why don't you give it to me?"

   Anyway, I originally got it from you.

  Danzo is very clear that the success of the transplant operation on his own body is not due to any breakthrough in technology, but purely a waste of money.

   Orochimaru wants to copy this process, but it will only be deflated.

   Orochimaru twitched the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "Danzo-sama is so generous, then I will be disrespectful."

  Of course he knew that there must be some kind of problem with the things Danzo gave, but what did it matter, anyway, he didn't intend to use it.

  The most important thing at the moment is to methodically promote the human experiment of gene fusion.

   "..."

  The third generation glanced at Orochimaru, and faintly noticed the trickiness in it, but he didn't get entangled in this aspect, and turned to tell the two consultants,

  "Although a relatively conservative strategy has been adopted at the moment, it is still necessary to prevent possible encirclement circles from appearing..."

   "The two of you have now taken over the intelligence organization, pay attention to the movements of the country of Tang, the country of sound, and the country of Wahe."

   After ordering related matters, the meeting was completely over.

  After everyone else left the Hokage room, Hiruzaru Sarutobi stayed on the seat alone, smoking a pipe one after another, the wrinkles on his face squeezed out of the grooves, and his face was very sad.

  The so-called support for Iron Country and Kusanagi Village's dealings, in the eyes of the third generation, is just a stupid way to settle for the next best thing, and it is too conservative.

  What should really be done is to attack decisively, as Orochimaru said, to completely dispel Kusanagi Village's ambitions.

   But when he understood it, he lost the ability to forcefully push all of this.

"well…"

   Hiruzaru Sarutobi sighed slightly in his heart, "The fourth generation died too early..."

  The leader is really too important. Since the village returned to his hands, it began to look sluggish. More than a year has passed, and it still hasn't survived the shadow of the Nine Tails Rebellion.

  However, even though he knew that it would not be a good thing for him to continue being Hokage, he had to continue to sit in this seat.

  The essence of power lies in the support of the people below.

  For example, Orochimaru, when he is in this position, he can still order him around, but if it is Jiraiya, I am afraid that the word "request" will be used.

Danzo has always wanted to be Hokage, but between him and Orochimaru, there will only be a pure exchange of benefits. Other than that, they can only "persecute". If it develops to the latter, there will be no doubt that Konoha will be torn apart .

   "It can't go on like this."

  The third generation held a pipe, closed his eyes, and began to think about the most suitable candidate for the 'fifth generation'.

  …

  In the dense forest, three figures flew between the tree trunks at a high speed. They were obviously very tired, but they did not dare to stop for a moment.

   "Cough cough cough..."

  The leader of the Iron Kingdom, Mifune, was lying on the back of a samurai, his chest was heaving violently, and blood was spitting out from the corner of his mouth.

  When Kusanagi Village was raided, as the leader of the samurai, Mifune was naturally obliged to lead his men to resist.

  However, even if his strength exceeds that of ordinary elite johnin and is close to a shadow-level powerhouse, he still cannot resist the monsters in the Bliss Box.

   Compatibility is too bad!

  Samurai's sword can't cut such monsters, even if combined with ninjutsu, it will be flashed one by one, and there is nothing to do with this thing.

  If it weren't for the warriors under his command who risked their lives and desperately tried to kill the queen, he might have to confess where he was.

   "The leader?!"

  Blood wetted the neckline of the ninja uniform, and the strong man carrying Mifune was startled. He quickly stopped on a tree trunk and took out a hemostatic pill from his pocket to stabilize Mifune's injury.

  The other two samurai also stopped, looked at Mifune worriedly, and then immediately turned their eyes to the surroundings, wary of the enemies chasing at any time.

   "Ahem... Chongjie, leave me, you still have a chance to save your life."

   Mifune's face was pale, and he was weak enough that even a child could kill him, but his tone was unquestionable.

  The samurai named Chongsuke didn't listen at all, and he took care of the injury on his own. This man's face was dark and tired, but a fierce light flashed in his eyes.

   "Leader, don't say such things again, it's a big deal, fight them."

   "Stupid!" Mifune sighed in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "For the Iron Country, you must live. You are the hope of the village."

   "No, without you, the Iron Kingdom really has no hope."

   After saying this, the samurai Shousuke put Mifune on his back again, and ran towards Tang Ninja Village without saying a word.

  He is not afraid of death, but asking him to shoulder the hope of revitalizing the village of warriors in the Iron Kingdom is more terrifying than letting him die.

   Not everyone can shoulder this burden.

  Some people are leaders who can control the rudder of the ship, while others can only be sailors. The samurai Chongsuke is very self-aware. With his ability, he can at most be the first mate.

   "Ten miles away, we will reach Tangren Village."

  The samurai Chongsuke roared in a rough voice, "Keep working harder, you'll be safe when you get there, Kusanagi will never dare..."

   Shua Shua Shua Shua...

   Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking wind, and wooden spiked spears shot straight from all directions.

"trap?"

  The samurai Chongsuke was startled, and a sternness flashed in his eyes for an instant. He drew out the long sword at his waist and swung it, layer upon layer, airtight.

  The wooden spear shattered, and the wooden wall woven with vines also fell apart.

  The samurai Chongsuke held his sword in front of his chest, looked around the dense forest, and a suspicion flashed in his eyes.

   To say that this is a trap is too childish, even the most powerful ninja will not be hit.

"who?"

  Another samurai seemed to have discovered it, and a gust of wind rose from the blade, cutting off the trunk and vines on the side and blowing it away.

   "Ahhh... so dangerous, you bastard!"

  A silver-haired boy jumped out of the canopy, with anger shining in his purple eyes,

   "You bastards, you ruined my bear trap, and you still want to kill me?"

   "Bear hunting?"

  Samurai Chongsuke found out that there was a beehive around him, which had been pierced by someone, and was dripping honey. He immediately realized that he had suffered an indiscriminate disaster, and anger arose in his heart.

   But seeing that he was just a boy, the samurai Shousuke forcibly restrained himself, and started to run in the direction of Tang Ninja Village.

   Kusanagi will catch up soon, there is no longer any delay.

  But the silver-haired boy insisted, "Destroyed my trap and wanted to kill me, I can't let you go like this."
