The battle lasted until six or seven in the evening, and it took four or five hours to end.

This was already very fast. If it was facing the big ninja villages of the five major countries, it would be impossible to end the battle so quickly.

And it was under the premise of not harming civilians, which was enough to show that the efficiency was high enough.

It was really like Pain fighting Konoha. He came to liberate the people, not to massacre the village and destroy the country.

"Go in, if you grin at me again, I will let you see your brains!"

Kakuzu drove a dozen warriors who were beaten and swollen into a room.

There were already twenty or thirty warriors with miserable looks in the huge room, and they were all looking at Kakuzu at the door with dusty faces and indignation.

"Where are they from? Why did they attack us?"

A ninja asked blankly, and many people were still in a trance.

They were fine at noon, so how come they became prisoners in just half a day?

Is their Iron Country too weak or the enemy too strong?

Normally they think they look mighty in armor, but is this what they are like in battle?

Many people said they couldn't accept it and were a little skeptical about life!

"I heard they are from the North!"

"The North? What is that place?"

At this time, someone else spoke up. Although everyone was depressed and angry, they also wanted to understand the current situation.

How could they know that Orochimaru had already arranged these samurai into his own ranks.

Not only these people, but also some respected elders in the village, in addition to some high-ranking officials around Mifune.

Many samurai captains had already been branded by him.

The time is too short, otherwise it could be resolved peacefully like the Kingdom of Soup and the Kingdom of Snow.

There is no way, time is running out, we have to seize the day, let's be violent, the unification of the dynasty is not without bloodshed.

In the cell where the samurai were imprisoned, ninjas from the North soon came in to persuade them to surrender.

At first, they were still rebellious, but as their companions explained the situation in the North, their originally firm hearts gradually wavered.

During the period, they really met a few samurai who kept singing the opposite tune, and they were directly pulled out by the North Ninja, and they were not seen again.

This scene made many people silent. From the people who came to persuade them to surrender, they learned that they were mainly trying to conquer the Iron Country this time.

If there are stubborn people who would rather die than obey, Orochimaru doesn't mind fulfilling their wishes.

Not only are they doing ideological work for the samurai, the villagers are also gathered in the square.

At this time, nearly a thousand residents of the Iron Country have gathered in the huge square.

Ninjas holding torches stood around the residents.

A senior official of the Iron Country was telling the villagers about the current situation on the high platform.

At the same time, Mangetsu Kizuki and others were also nearby. After the leader of the Iron Country finished speaking, the orator of the North continued to speak.

First calm down the panicked villagers, otherwise the villagers' riot will be in vain.

There are many people in the crowd who have already surrendered to Orochimaru, so it is not that difficult.

As for Orochimaru, he was drinking hot tea in Mifune's office at this time. In front of him, there was a bloody middle-aged man lying on the ground. It was Mifune.

Don't be fooled by his miserable appearance. There are more than ten large and small knife wounds on his body, and there is a penetrating wound on his shoulder.

These are just skin injuries, and there is no damage to the internal organs. Except for excessive blood loss and a little mental depression, his heartbeat is still very strong.

"You... want to destroy the Iron Country?"

Mifune, lying on his back, looked at Orochimaru with some resentment.

After so many generations of efforts, the Iron Country is going to be destroyed now that it has been passed to him?

How can he, the king of a fallen country, have the face to meet his ancestors?

"Tsk... The Iron Country really shouldn't exist anymore. Your thoughts have slipped and you can't keep up with the development of the times!"

Orochimaru took a sip of tea and looked at him with pity.

Which of the closed-door policies have good results? Now I come here not to destroy them, but to save them!

Providing them with a better environment and better living conditions is really a mistake!

As for the difficulty of leaving their homeland, forget it. Anyone with a little ambition wants to leave this bitter cold place, okay!

It's just that there are wars all year round outside and there is no safe living environment. Otherwise, who would want to stay in such a barren place?

Mifune has also thought about moving the village to a warmer area in the south, but how can things be so simple?

It's okay to think about it, but the strength doesn't allow it!

After hearing Orochimaru's answer, Mifune hurriedly struggled to get up.

However, his hands and feet were tied up, so he could only crawl on the ground.

The wound that had been simply bandaged by someone was bleeding again after he tossed it like this."You! You devil! How did we offend you? I'm going to fight you! You devil!"

Orochimaru looked at this pedantic old man. Mifune is already in his early 50s, much older than Orochimaru.

Are all the older people so stubborn? Ohnoki is like this, Old Purple is like this, and the third generation is also like this.

"I want the people of the Iron Country. They will all become the people of the North. Not only will I not hurt them, but I will also let them live better!"

Orochimaru didn't mind talking a little more about Mifune. After all, this guy just lacks ability, but his heart is not bad.

This is also the reason why Orochimaru spared his life, otherwise Mifune would be a corpse now.

Hearing Orochimaru's explanation, Mifune's struggling body stopped immediately.

He didn't expect that Orochimaru's purpose of attacking the Iron Country was actually this. If it was really as he said, then the situation was not bad.

"Are you sure you didn't kill the villagers?"

The resentment in Mifune's eyes turned into surprise and doubt. Who doesn't fight for resources? This is the first time he has encountered such a situation where people and materials are taken away at once.

This is annexation. No wonder Orochimaru said that the Iron Country will no longer exist.

"The winner is the king, and the loser is the enemy! There is no ship to carry you in the new era. It is your Iron Country's luck to meet me!"

Orochimaru did not answer his question. Killing villagers? There are always some blind people who rush into the muzzle of the gun!

Doing this has minimized the losses. There is no bloodless reform and revolution.

Waving his hand, regardless of his complicated expression, two northern ninjas came over and took Mifune away.

Although this guy has limited ability, he has been running the Iron Country for so long and still has prestige.

Under the general trend, keeping him will not make any big waves, but it can express goodwill to the villagers.

As for when he arrives in the Northland in the future, he will naturally change his mind, and he will be able to make full use of his remaining energy at that time.

The Northland is in great need of talents now, and the village chiefs of these small countries are still useful to the top.

The Northland City is too big, and Orochimaru's team alone can't manage it!

After dealing with the affairs of the Iron Country, the next day, Mangetsu Kizuki and some ninjas escorted the residents of the Iron Country to the Northland.

Orochimaru once again led the remaining two hundred ninjas to the last target of this trip - Takigakure!
