Konoha: Opening Binding Namikaze Minato

late at night.

Konoha Camp.

At this time, except for some of the security personnel, most people had gone to bed, and the entire camp was dark.

In the few tents that were still lit, Orochimaru was lowering his head to read the information collected during the day.

Many times, the quality of intelligence is related to the outcome of a war, so every ninja village has put a lot of effort into cultivating intelligence personnel.

Some of the information Orochimaru has in hand comes from the ANBU, and some comes from the roots.

Although the roots are annoying, their intelligence capabilities cannot be underestimated. Taking the information that Orochimaru has in hand at this time, the information provided by the roots is even more detailed than that of the ANBU.

Among the information, Orochimaru's focus was none other than the Third Tsuchikage Onoki, followed by the movements of the Four-Tailed Jinchuuriki.

Among them, Ohnoki is a Tsuchikage, and his every move in the village is watched by others. On the contrary, it is the four-tailed Jinchuriki Lao Murasaki. The other person is like a wandering monk, with no fixed abode and elusive whereabouts. Except for the senior members of Iwagakure

Outside of the country, almost no one knows where he is.

Therefore, there is no news about him in Konoha, either from the roots or from the ANBU.

But judging from the currently known information, the relationship between the Four-Tailed Jinchuuriki and Onoki is not harmonious. The two often quarrel. This is not a secret in Iwagakure Village, and almost all ninjas know it.

So under normal circumstances, Onoki also ordered the four-tailed jinchūriki not to move.

However, Orochimaru still asked people to increase their efforts to find the Four-Tailed Jinchuuriki. Although he was at odds with Onoki, it was a war between the two villages, and there was no guarantee that he would not come to support.

······

Orochimaru looked through all the information in his hand and finally returned to the first page.

What is written on this page is the information that Onoki suddenly held a high-level meeting today.

Since it was a high-level meeting, Konoha's intelligence personnel were naturally unable to get in, and they had no way of knowing the content of the meeting.

But at least this meeting can make Orochimaru certain that Onoki is still in Iwagakure Village.

After all, Onoki had just shown his face during the day, and there was no news of him going to the front line. Everyone, including Iwakaku, thought that Onoki was still in the village, so Orochimaru did not expect that Onoki would quietly lead a small team to the front line.

.

But Orochimaru's intuition, which was as sharp as a snake, made him feel a little uneasy, as if something was about to happen, so he stayed up in the middle of the night and took out the intelligence from the day to continue research.

He tried to find something wrong from the intelligence, but no matter how he looked, he couldn't find anything wrong.

"Could it be that...the Four-Tailed Jinchuuriki is here?" Orochimaru frowned.

Currently, the only one in Konoha whose whereabouts are unknown is the Four-Tailed Jinchuuriki, so Orochimaru is right to think so.

"It seems that you need to be more careful tomorrow."

In any case, Orochimaru kept a secret in his heart.

It is precisely because of this mentality that he saved his life in tomorrow's battle.

Of course, these are all things for later and will not be mentioned for now.

······

The other side.

The border of the Fire Nation, the Northeast Front.

The dim candle burned quietly, and the firelight reflected the shadows of several people on the tent.

Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Hatake Sakumo sat together around the candlelight.

Jiraiya slumped casually and said, "Did the Sandai get a message back? What did he say?"

Hatake Sakumo also looked at Tsunade.

Tsunade shook her head slightly: "The news has been sent back, but there is still no news."

Jiraiya said nonchalantly: "Let me tell you, even if reinforcements are really needed, the third generation's priority is Orochimaru. After all, he is under greater pressure than us now. If Ohnoki suddenly joins the war one day, Orochimaru will definitely

Not an opponent."

"Looking at our side, the three of us are all at the Shadow level. Against Yunyin, we are not evenly matched, but we are only slightly at a disadvantage. We do not lack top-notch combat power. On the contrary, what we lack is people. If

Give us a few thousand more people and we can completely reverse the current disadvantage."

What Jiraiya said was good, but Tsunade preferred to let Flame Gate support them first. Anyway, Flame Gate had Flying Thunder God in hand, and they only needed to send the kunai with his Flying Thunder God mark to Orochimaru.

Once something happens on Orochimaru's side, Yanmen will be able to quickly go to support him.

Furthermore, Enmon will never be weaker than the Third Raikage. With him holding back the Third Raikage, Hatake Sakumo and Jiraiya will be able to free up their hands, and it will be much easier to deal with the Kumo ninja.

.

After defeating Kumogakure, it would be a good idea to concentrate on dealing with Iwagakure.

Here, Hatake Sakumo's idea was relatively simple. He pondered for a while and said, "Just wait and see. I believe that the Third Generation has already made plans in his mind."

Hatake Sakumo is not only a firm believer in the Will of Fire, but also a firm supporter of Naruto, so he always supports the decisions made by Naruto.

At the same time, Hatake Sakumo's words also brought an end to the conversation between the three of them tonight.

······

After Hatake Sakumo left, Jiraiya said to Tsunade attentively: "Tsunade, do you want to go to a hot spring together? I recently found a natural hot spring that is very good, big enough, and the temperature is just right."

Looking at Jiraiya with a wretched look on his face, Tsunade refused without even thinking: "Get out!"

"Okay!"

Jiraiya didn't dare to say anything anymore, so he turned around and left.

Seeing Jiraiya turn around and leave, Tsunade slowly loosened her fist. If Jiraiya hadn't given up just now, she would never be polite to him.

Give him a punch first, and then treat him.

To deal with an old pervert like Jiraiya, you can only use violence, and the best thing is to knock him out of the shadows.

Well, in fact, Jiraiya wanted to say that there was no need to fight, there was already a shadow, otherwise he wouldn't have turned around and left when Tsunade was about to hit someone.

If it had been anyone else, he would have been shameless for a while.

······

The next day.

Early on, the sounds of fighting could be heard in the forest.

That was the Konoha ninja fighting against the Iwa ninja.

Because of Ohnoki's sudden arrival and what was discussed last night, Han ordered his men to attack the Konoha camp early in the morning.

"Enemy attack!"

Everyone in the Konoha camp was awakened by the sound, and Orochimaru rushed out of the tent in a swish.

"Everyone, prepare to meet the enemy!"

Whoa whoosh!

All of a sudden, countless people poured out of the tent.

When the number of people was almost there, Orochimaru led the people to kill Iwa Ninja.

"Kill!"

The two groups of men and horses collided instantly, and various ninjutsu, kunai, and detonating charms flew across the field.

Here, Orochimaru was not in a hurry to take action. He released a few small snakes to keep alert around him. Four or five small thumb-sized snakes of different colors emerged from Orochimaru's trousers, and then quickly disappeared into the grass.

Because they were on the battlefield and the snakes were so small, no one noticed these snakes.

These snakes are like Orochimaru's eyes, wandering around the battlefield, trying to find something wrong.

at the same time.

Han locked Orochimaru's position at a glance, and then he quickly rushed towards Orochimaru without hesitation.

Han's whole body was filled with huge hot steam, and he was running towards Orochimaru. All the ninjas who stood in front of him were knocked away.

"Jet feet!"

A large amount of steam came out from Han's feet, and a powerful thrust ejected him.

Orochimaru had a solemn look on his face. Although his software transformation was more restrained against taijutsu ninjas, Han was not a traditional taijutsu ninja, but a combination of taijutsu and ninjutsu.

Han is not only a five-tailed jinchūriki, but he also possesses the bloodline boundary of boiling. His fighting style is closely integrated with boiling. Every move contains hot steam, which even Orochimaru is difficult to deal with.

"Earth Escape·Earth Flow Wall!"

Facing a strong ninjutsu master like Han, the best way is to keep him away from him, entangle him with various combinations of ninjutsu, and then use poison to try to defeat him.

boom!

The Tuliu wall was completely vulnerable in front of Han, and it would break into pieces if he hit it.

Seeing this, Orochimaru showed no fear. He studied under the ninjutsu doctor Sarutobi Hiruzen. He was very talented and had countless ninjutsu in his hands, which was enough for him to deal with it calmly.

"Earth Escape·Earthly River!"

This move is an enhanced version of Earthflow Wall.

Soon, the two of them got into each other's hands.

On the other side, Ohnoki and the elite team he brought used "camouflage concealment" to make themselves invisible, and then observed Orochimaru in the dark, waiting for Han to create an opportunity for him, and then he would use dust escape to kill him.

stunt.

After all, Dust Release is a blood inheritance elimination, and each use requires a large amount of chakra, and Onoki himself is not a ninja known for his chakra, so he can only use it sparingly.

······

Here, Orochimaru was fighting Han while keeping vigilance around him.

The unprovoked sense of crisis last night made him realize something, but he found nothing, so he could only act according to the situation.

Orochimaru used ninjutsu to block Han's advances again and again, and a large part of his attention was focused on the several small snakes he summoned.

Although snakes have poor eyesight, their unique sense of smell makes it easier for them to capture odors in the air. Relying on their heat sensing, ordinary people cannot hide in front of them.

After all, you can hide your body, but you can't hide your body's heat.

However, the battlefield was too big, there were so many people, and battles continued. In order to ensure safety, these little snakes walked very carefully on the battlefield, so they moved slower, and they never found the source of Orochimaru's uneasiness.

But because Orochimaru paid too much attention to these snakes, Han found a chance to get close to him.

I saw Han's jet kick, and his whole body flew out, directly in front of Orochimaru.

Orochimaru was startled, and just when Han was about to hit him, he quickly dodged through the snake substitute.

Han's reaction was also quick. When Orochimaru used the snake substitute, he had already changed his position. Now he finally got close to Orochimaru. He would never let Orochimaru get further away. He would cling to Orochimaru, and then

Give Onoki a chance.

"Something's wrong!"

Having fought against Han so many times, Orochimaru knew him very well. Although Han often wanted to get close to him in the past, he would never be as eager as he is today.

Yes, it is urgent.

Orochimaru felt it.

Orochimaru was originally known for his calm mind and meticulousness, but a small abnormality raised his inner vigilance to a certain height.

At this thought, Orochimaru's peripheral vision glanced back and forth on the battlefield, and the little snakes also accelerated and began to swim away.

At the same time, Orochimaru's brain is spinning rapidly. At this moment, he has several choices. One is to continue to be vigilant and stay the same to see what Iwagakure is planning. The other is to find a way to make Iwagakure's successor

The hands are exposed in advance.

Two options, how to choose?

Soon, Orochimaru made up his mind.

He suddenly made a mistake and was kicked to the ground by Han, making a big crater.

The moment Orochimaru landed, Onoki's face was filled with joy, what a great opportunity!

So Onoki took action decisively, and a transparent cube quickly formed in his hand, and then a beam of light shot toward Orochimaru's position.

"Dust Escape·The Technique of Original Realm Peeling!"

stop!

A beam of light emitting intense light hit the place where Orochimaru landed.

There was no explosion sound caused by the damage caused by the light beam, and all objects it touched were annihilated, as if they had never existed.

Where Orochimaru used to be, a bottomless pit appeared, and the expressions of everyone on the scene changed drastically.

"Tsuchikage!?"

"What the hell, why are the Tsuchikage here in person? Lord Orochimaru!"

Everyone in Konoha exclaimed, looking at the pothole with worried faces.

On the other side, the Iwa ninjas showed surprised smiles.

"Lord Tsuchikage!"

"Yeah! Lord Tsuchikage is here, Iwagakure will win!"

"Hahaha, Orochimaru was hit head-on by Tsuchikage-sama's Dust Release. He will definitely die. Konoha, why don't you surrender quickly!"

But unlike the excitement of the Iwa ninjas, Onoki was floating in the air with a solemn expression, looking at the deep pit below. The blow just now didn't seem to hit anyone.

But, how is it possible? Can it be avoided in that situation?

Ohnoki frowned and stared at the pothole.

At the same time, under the ground not far from the pothole, Orochimaru had a gloomy expression on his face.

In fact, when he fell to the ground, he quickly used the Earth Release Technique to leave that position. As a result, as soon as his front foot changed position, the Dust Release Technique fell from the sky. It could almost be said that he missed him, just a little bit. If

If he hadn't been prepared, he would have revealed everything here today!

At the same time, this also strengthened Orochimaru's determination to research the curse seal as soon as possible.

Orochimaru has always been afraid of death. The shadow of his parents' death when he was a child still hangs over him. Coupled with his brush with death this time, he is even more afraid of death.

But now was not the time to think about this. He glanced above with a gloomy face.

Ohnoki has come in person, and it seems that this battle cannot go on. If the support from the village is not available, their battle with Iwagakure will be at a disadvantage, and there is even a risk of defeat.

Orochimaru did not dare to stay underground for too long. If one of his own personnel really thought he was killed, it would undoubtedly have a huge blow to morale, and a complete defeat would be possible if one mistake was made.
