Orochimaru's Allah's Lamp

Konoha, in today's ninja world, is undoubtedly the biggest beneficiary and defender of the current order, and naturally has no intention of ruining its own job.

At least, there is no need to lose dignity for the sake of a mere Iron Kingdom.

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

After Nara Shikaku brought up this topic, Koharu and Mito Monobu also agreed, giving the impression that everything is in my hands.

This is not because they are arrogant. The two Hokage advisors knew that the Grass Ninja Village could do all this, and the combat power of a single tailed beast was obviously unable to cope with Konoha's actions.

However, 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 order.

"The grass ninjas destroyed the Taki ninja village and the samurai village. Now they have connected the three small countries into one piece. They have even begun to recruit a large number of wandering ninjas to expand the strength of the village. We can no longer treat them with the same eyesight as before.

"

"But so what?" Koharu asked after going to bed, "They are just a group of wandering ninjas. They are only chuunin at best, and their strength has limited growth. Apart from the monsters in the Box of Bliss, the strength of Kusanagi Village has not changed much. On the contrary, it has not changed much.

Because people are dispersed, the strength is weak..."

From her perspective, the way the Grass Ninja Village acts is too radical. The tailed beast-level combat power can not only be used for fighting, but also as a deterrent. It is more effective to slowly annex the land of neighboring countries. This

That's the way to do business.

At present, the group of samurai have indeed been eliminated once and for all, but with Konoha here, it is still unclear whether they can really eat it. It is very likely that they made wedding clothes for others.

After hearing what Koharu said, Orochimaru let out a sneer,

"You don't understand what the old man means. This is not at all a question of whether the Grass Ninja Village can cope 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 Hokage advisors changed and their eyes turned to the map on the desktop.

Indeed, now, the buffer countries of the Land of Fire and the Land of Earth have changed from the previous three to one, and the Grass Ninja Village is very ambitious and will obviously not give up just yet. They will obediently keep a low profile in front of Konoha. They are

What should be done most is...

"Haha...I received some news."

Danzo, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, his voice hoarse and low, "The day before yesterday, a team of grass ninja secretly arrived at Iwagakure Village."

After hearing this, Koharu and Mito Menen, who had gone to bed, suddenly turned gloomy.

Joining forces vertically and horizontally to win over the relatively weak Iwagakure Village to fight against the powerful Konoha is a reasonable approach and not surprising.

What made the two of them irritated and even a little embarrassed was that Danzo had received the message but they had not.

How many of Konoha's underground intelligence agents does Danzo still have?

Of course, this issue is not appropriate to discuss now. What Konoha needs to think about now is: with the country of earth and even the country of thunder that may be there in the future as a backing, whether the village will continue to send troops, or let the grass ninja continue

Continue to expand like this?

The two consultant elders have always been conservative, and this time was no exception.

It's okay to bully a Grass Ninja Village, but it's not worth escalating the conflict with the Iwagakure Village for the sake of the Iron Country's little benefit.

The Fire Nation has enough foundation to do this.

But if you just think about it this way, your view is too shallow.

The third generation did not comment on the two people's opinions. He glanced at Danzo out of the corner of his eye and sighed slightly in his heart.

Although suppressing Danzo and the roots is the right approach in Konoha's interests, there are always pros and cons. Without Danzo as a fighting sect, the conservative forces in the village will greatly increase.

As a Hokage, one cannot express one's position easily. Sometimes, one has to adapt to the situation and be dominated by it. Otherwise, it would be too much of a loss of prestige.

After pondering for a moment, the third generation glanced at Nara Shikaku, who was not suitable to speak, and then fell on Orochimaru.

If possible, he did not want to leave this matter to Orochimaru. It could be expected that although Orochimaru had no problems in general, he would 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, while the other ninja clan leaders lack some weight.

Orochimaru blinked, as if he understood the third generation's eyes, and a wicked smile appeared 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 sleeve.

swish swish...

The tip of the pen fell on the map, following the drawings made three generations ago, the 'River Country' that bordered the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire, the 'Land of Water' and the 'Land of Sound' that bordered the Land of Thunder and the Land of Fire.

All are included to outline a circle, or in other words, a 'circle'.

After finishing, Orochimaru put the pen back into his sleeve, looked around, and finally landed on Koharu, who was sleeping, and said slowly,

"Now, you still want to say that the actions of the Grass Ninja Village have nothing to do with Konoha?"

After going to bed, Koharu glanced at the map and instantly understood what Orochimaru meant. Everyone present could understand it clearly as long as their brains were clear.

But understanding does not mean understanding, nor does it mean believing.

After turning to bed, Koharu frowned, "Even the Grass Ninja Village wants to surround Konoha?"

This is also the sentiment of most people. It's not that they look down on the Kusunin Village, but the reality is that the strength of the Kusunin Village simply does not support them in doing these things.

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

Orochimaru curved his lips and sneered, "The Grass Ninja Village does not need to fight against Konoha. As long as it has the ability to destroy these small countries and rule them, support from other places will be absolutely indispensable."

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

"And after that, what do you think they will do with the money?"

Orochimaru smiled and said, "Thinking about it from their perspective, I am very inclined to think that they will cause some trouble for Konoha."

The two Hokage advisors opened their mouths and said nothing to refute, and everyone else present also fell silent.

If the actions of the Grass Ninja Village 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 Fire Nation will definitely lose its previous prosperity.

"So, this war must be fought." Orochimaru glanced at everyone, "It doesn't matter what the Iron Kingdom is, but we must destroy the ambitions of the grass ninjas."
