Human Beings In Konoha, Collecting Corpses On The Battlefield For Ten Years

Sarutobi Hiruzen continued reading.

"Rock Shinobi's elite ambush squad, a total of eight Jōnin, twenty-four Chūnin, of which seven Jōnin were beheaded, one was seriously injured, twenty Chūnin were beheaded, and three were seriously injured..."

At this point, everyone's expressions are slightly relaxed.

Although Konoha suffered heavy losses, Rock Shinobi's losses were obviously greater, and they seriously underestimated Orochimaru's strength.

The wrong assessment, coupled with Konoha's determination that he did not anticipate, caused Rock Shinobi's loss in this trial. It is estimated that Ohnoki will have to lick the wound in silence for a long time to recover.

"Orochimaru did a good job." Danzo, who was silent for a long time, finally said, expressing his recognition of Orochimaru's ability.

This time, Rock Shinobi was hit hard, and the plan for Sarutobi Hiruzen was true.

However, the content of the task summary has not been read completely.

"It is suspected that a Rock Shinobi Jōnin attacked the Niaosen checkpoint when the tiger was moving away from the mountain, resulting in the death of two Konoha Chūnin, and the corpse collector Wánshān Qífēng seriously injured. Afterwards, the Rock Shinobi Jōnin... was missing?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen finished reading and glanced at Orochimaru.

Orochimaru Snake Eye was full of interest, licked his lips, hoarsely said: "According to Wánshān Qífēng himself, this is the case."

Others don't know, but Sarutobi Hiruzen and Orochimaru both know.

This is not the first time such a thing has happened.

In the last time in Yunokuni, Mist Shinobi Jōnin Kaguya had crossed Konoha's line of defense and attacked the Kakashi team, and finally met Wánshān Qífēng.

But the results last time and this time are exactly the same.

The two rival Jōnin were missing. Genin Wánshān Qífēng was seriously injured but survived.

If one time is a coincidence, then two times...

Sarutobi Hiruzen suppressed the guess in his heart, gave Orochimaru a look, and after confirming that the other party would pay attention, the meeting continued.

Such an important meeting will obviously not be interrupted by a little Genin.

Although the ending of the matter was a bit abrupt, the major patriarchs and elite Jōnin were also a little surprised.

After all, a Genin can survive Jōnin's hands, it is a very lucky thing.

All of you present here are Jōnin and above. They understand how far between Genin and Jōnin is.

But seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't mean to go deeper, everyone wouldn't say much, but silently remembered the name "Wánshān Qífēng" in their hearts.

They didn't notice the look Sarutobi Hiruzen gave Orochimaru.

"Ahem, return to the topic, Lu Xin, you continue."

Nara Luxin nodded expressionlessly, showing no emotion at all when he was interrupted, and took advantage of this time to perfect the plan in his heart.

Looking around the crowd, he said in a deep voice: "I suggest that Konoha can hold the Chūnin exam in advance!"

Chūnin exam!

As soon as the words came out, everyone in the conference room stared, surprised at Nara Luluxin's proposal.

But after another thought, I quickly understood the deeper meaning.

Sarutobi Hiruzen appeared in a daze, knocked his pipe, and after a moment of indulgence, he motioned to Lu Xin to continue speaking.

"We can invite Cloud Shinobi, Mist Shinobi, and Sand Shinobi." Nara had a heart in her chest and talked freely.

The only exception is not to invite Rock Shinobi, the intention of this...

"Cloud Shinobi is our nominal ally. Although some time has passed, they are still allies as long as the covenant is not torn. We can use this to test their tendency. Cloud Shinobi is also a party we can win. After all The hatred between Cloud Shinobi Village and Iwagakure is not small.

The Kirigakure of the Water Country has always been in the same position. Relying on the barrier of the sea and the battle advantage on the water, it has more than self-preservation and insufficient external attack. Let them see the strength of our Konoha. I wonder if they want to continue to expand the war. Need to consider carefully.

As for Sunagakure, Sunagakure's internal conflicts have never disappeared, resources are scarce, and its position is vacillating. If we further communicate with them and try to relax some of the provisions of World War II, it may not be possible to win.

I just have to worry about Sunagakure's elder, Chiyo, who is the most determined ‘fire extinguisher’.

At the same time, the surrounding small hidden villages were also invited over to determine their position and give a certain amount of shock. "

The potential role of the Chūnin exam is analyzed clearly, and the stakes are explained thoroughly.

In general, it means to win a part, to deter a part, and a part to be neutral.

With such a set, Konoha's pressure may be much less.

"very good!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen decided directly.

In fact, he had discussed this plan with Nara Lu Xin a long time ago, but he needed a suitable occasion to speak out the plan.

After that, the tasks of the various ethnic groups and departments were divided and set.

The big policy was set, and the small details of the plan were handed over to Nara Luxin by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

After the meeting.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Orochimaru, the pair of masters and apprentices, walked by a river in Konoha.

"How long have we not walked like this, Orochimaru?" Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed.

The older the person, the easier it is to recall the past, some beautiful things.

"Ha ha."

"..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen bounced with blue veins on his forehead, and he was helpless for Orochimaru's indifferent temperament.

Seeing Orochimaru, who has completed and can be alone, Sarutobi Hiruzen is still very pleased.

It's just that there is a hint of worry in the depths of this comforting eye.

And this worry, in today's harmonious teacher-student relationship, he has actively and selectively forgotten.

"Tell me your opinion, Orochimaru."

Sarutobi Hiruzen stopped and stood by the river, smiling at the children playing in the distance.

"War?" Orochimaru stood beside him, licking his lips.

For war, Orochimaru is not very repulsive.

"What should come is coming, and no one can stop it, just like a damn person will die one day, Shinigami is not affectionate." Orochimaru said lightly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that his disciple was obsessed with life and death.

But I didn't expect that his unrealistic obsession, not only did not dissipate because of the increase in age, on the contrary, his obsession was getting deeper and deeper.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, pondered for a moment and spoke again, "Talk about Qífēng."

Speaking of Qífēng, the interest on Orochimaru's face suddenly aroused.

"There are two possibilities. One is that he is hiding his strength, and the other is that someone is helping him in the dark. This person may be Konoha's ninja, or other village ninja, or wandering ninja." Orochimaru said bluntly.

"Hidden strength?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a while, then quickly shook his head.

unrealistic.

Konoha is a place rich in geniuses, he has seen any genius, the genius of the ninja family, the genius of the common people.

But Qífēng is impossible.

It's not that he hasn't sent people to observe, from the time when the other party came into contact with Asuma, and then to the last Mizuna incident.

The monitoring Anbu ninja unified report situation is almost the same, a ninja who can't rest on peace anymore.

In addition, he is not a family ninja, with a weak foundation, no blood inheritance limit, and no family support.

Rao is the most civilian genius that Sarutobi Hiruzen has ever seen, such as Orochimaru and Namikaze Minato. It is impossible to kill Jōnin at the age of thirteen without the guidance of the strong.

"Perhaps, does he still have a secret?" Orochimaru added jokingly.

"Can you find out if someone is hiding behind him?" Sarutobi Hiruzen ignored his joke, just asked.

"No." Orochimaru replied quickly, and continued: "It's not impossible, but I didn't find it."

Orochimaru said that he didn't find it, and it really didn't.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, took his pipe and poked, "Perhaps, it's just luck, as he said."

Because from several observations, Qífēng is sincere to Konoha, to his companions, especially to his corpses.

This is impossible to pretend. Sarutobi Hiruzen does not believe that anyone can pretend to be free in front of him and Orochimaru.

Therefore, he is a Konoha Shinobi, and his heart is in Konoha, there is no doubt about that.

Orochimaru shrugged, "Luck, maybe."

There is really no other explanation.

Lucky ninja, it's not uncommon, Sarutobi Hiruzen has even seen more exaggerated.

Hundreds of thousands of ninjas battled on the battlefield, and thousands of people died. Even Jōnin suffered heavy casualties. However, a Konoha Genin who was at the center of the battle survived intact and hardly suffered any damage.

What is luck.

This is luck.

But luck is also part of strength.

"For whatever reason, he is a Konoha Shinobi, that's enough."

Indeed, he is a Konoha Shinobi, and he is also a Konoha Shinobi who is gradually recognized by others with the act of protecting the corpse. That is enough.

Did not say much about Qífēng.

A lucky Genin is not enough for Sarutobi Hiruzen to spend so much energy in this period of time.

However, in the eyes of Sarutobi Hiruzen, he was labeled: a lucky ninja!

What Qífēng, who was far away in the morgue at this time, didn't know was that he was mentioned many times back and forth between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Orochimaru.

And because of his positive attitude towards corpses, he was recognized by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

If he knew it, he would have taken every corpse more seriously.

The attitude of protecting private property!
