Me and countless me.

Chapter 286 The Meeting of the Four Shadows

Li Ke did not send Mitarashi Anko back to her own home, because he knew very well that her parents had died long ago, and it was impossible for her to get normal comfort, so Li Ke could only take her back to his own home.

The moment Tsunade saw Mitarashi Anko, she thought of Orochimaru, but she didn't ask anything. She just silently took over the unconscious Mitarashi Anko's body.

After all, Tsunade knew that Sarutobi Hiruzen was seeking death on purpose, and Mitarashi Anko was just a victim.

However, Li Ke still couldn't relax, because no matter what happened, he still had to attend the meeting.

The Anbu members rushed out like water to look for Orochimaru's trace. Even Li Ke and Namikaze Minato went out to search and used radio to communicate with each other.

However, except for the ninjas at the lower levels, everyone above the middle level knew that it was impossible to find Orochimaru.

But in the morning, Li Ke and others came to the Hokage Building to hold a summary meeting to discuss what to do next.

Strictly speaking, this meeting could only be attended by jonin, but because of the reputation of the Third Hokage, an exception was made this time to allow heads of some small families to attend. However, what surprised Li Ke was that the person who came from the Sarutobi family was actually Asuma.

And there was something wrong with the way Asuma looked at him.

Not like hatred, but some anger.

Li Ke frowned and immediately came to Asma and comforted her.

"Asuma..."

"I don't need comfort, Qingtan, what you should consider most now is the problem of Konoha Village. The other ninja villages will not give up this good opportunity. Once they know the news, they will set off immediately."

Asuma rudely interrupted Li Ke and looked at Minato Namikaze who was busy at the desk, while Li Ke spoke awkwardly.

"There will still be a time to send an envoy, after all..."

"After all, they still have to make sure my father is really dead, right?"

Asma even said this with a smile, which made Li Ke immediately understand one thing.

At this time, Asma was at a loss for words, whether to reason or to persuade.

Even if he used the Friendship Face-Breaking Fist and the Personality Correction Fist, it would be useless because Asuma, like Tsunade now, was also in a semi-crazy state.

Even though he dislikes his father so much, he is still his father. Although he dislikes the various preferential treatments his father gives him, it also means that Asuma knows how much his father loves him. He hates his father more because he feels that his father looks down on his abilities and is unwilling to give him the opportunity to display his true talents.

What he hated was Sarutobi Hiruzen as the Hokage, not his own father!
Tears still flowed from Asuma's eyes. Li Ke wanted to hug him, but was pushed away by him.

He wanted to explain, but Asuma spoke again.

"I know why my father died, and I also know that you are not wrong... But I want to be alone for a while. We should not meet again for a while, Qingtan."

Asma knew that Li Ke was not to blame for this matter, but he could not treat Li Ke normally, at least not during this period of time.

Therefore, the desire to leave became stronger.

Li Ke was speechless and could only give the last thing he could.

"I'll have Minato give you an appointment..."

After he finished speaking, his mood became worse. Although he had known this would be the case, when he actually experienced it himself, he still felt a pang of pain in his heart.

And the series of useless but necessary nonsense that Minato said after he came to power made Li Ke even more irritated.

After deciding to capture the traitor Orochimaru and stabilize everything in Konoha Village, the meeting finally ended. What remained was a small meeting among the top leaders.

Li Ke had no way to leave and could only watch Asuma leave. At the small meeting, Minato Namikaze said some bad things.

"Because we used radios on a large scale for business activities before, the barrier team detected dozens of radio signals in the morning, so it is estimated that other ninja villages have already known the news. It is estimated that in less than a week, other ninja villages will invade again."

Namikaze Minato stated with a serious expression the biggest problem facing Konoha Village right now.

Not to mention the Cloud Village that was ready to make a move, even the Iwagakure Village that had suffered the greatest losses would attack without hesitation at this time!
Because Konoha Village borrowed money to develop its business, it not only offended the nobles of the Fire Nation, but also caused nobles from other countries to write letters to protest to the nobles of the Fire Nation, asking them to teach Konoha's ninjas a lesson.

Under such circumstances, the Third Hokage died, Orochimaru defected, and the village lost two generals at once. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for other villages.

In addition, Li Ke had deliberately asked Karuizawa Yagura to contact other ninja villages to besiege Konoha Village, so now things suddenly turned from a script into a real crisis!

Before, they just wanted to destroy some elite troops to tell other ninja villages that resistance was useless, but now that Sarutobi Hiruzen is gone, other ninja villages will definitely try to severely damage Konoha Village.

Especially Yagura Karotachi from the Hidden Mist Village!
He was submissive before, but that is no longer the case.

"It doesn't matter, let's stick to the original plan."

Li Ke, who was in a very bad mood, hugged his arms and said this calmly.

"it is good……"

Minato Namikaze hesitated for a moment before nodding, but then he scratched his head embarrassedly and handed a report to Li Ke.

"Well, there's one more thing."

Li Ke looked at him silently and asked.

"Where to go, who to kill, and how many to kill?"

But an awkward yet polite smile appeared on Minato Namikaze's face.

"The sewer is blocked... As you know, although you made it very strong, the range of the Great Linking Bullet Technique of the Third-sama is too wide."

Li Ke: “………………”

Li Ke took the S-level task list speechlessly and left the meeting room. Then he began to observe the disaster situation with his Byakugan. He then used Earth Escape and Steel Escape to rebuild a new sewer system, and occasionally used Water Escape to solve the blockage problem. After a busy day, Li Ke was in a very bad mood. He wanted to talk to Xihi Hong, but found that Xihi Hong was also in a very low mood. He went to find Asuma, but found that Asuma had already left the village.

He went to find Kakashi, and found that he had been looking at him with resentful eyes, as if he could not forget that they were late. In the end -

Li Ke saw Tsunade who was drinking, and Jiraiya who was obviously beaten half to death by Orochimaru.

So he felt even worse.

But Jiraiya left after drinking, not even wanting to bandage the wound, and Tsunade was so drunk that she couldn't even speak.

It was in this kind of atmosphere that Li Ke spent a whole week, and the resentment in his heart had become visible to everyone.

But fortunately, an opportunity for Li Ke to vent his anger soon came.

Yagura Karuta sent a message that the shadows of the other ninja villages have decided to meet in the Land of Grass. For this purpose, he even took a risk and took the water route from the Land of Taki to the Land of Grass.

So, when Minato Namikaze saw Li Ke off, looking at the resentment that had almost become tangible in Li Ke, he couldn't help but speak.

"Well, Qingtan, for the sake of your reputation..."

Li Ke is the one who creates the future, so he doesn't really want Li Ke to bear the label of butcher, but looking at Li Ke's current state, he is afraid that the situation in the Hidden Mist Village will be repeated.

"Don't worry, it won't happen."

Li Ke was very calm, hugging his arms.

"This is not a small matter. I will pay attention to it."

Looking at Tsunade who was looking at him from a distance, Li Ke touched the necklace he had snatched away, which was ominous for Tsunade, and then under the worried gaze of Minato Namikaze, he instantly used the Flying Thunder God Technique and disappeared on the spot!

He has been unhappy this week, so other Kages, since you really have ideas about Konoha, then let's share this pain together!
And at the same time——

"Mizukage, are you serious?"

Raikage Ai looked at Gojira Yagura and asked.

"Will that person called Murata Kiyotan really come here and try to attack us?"

His eyes flickered, and he began to wonder if the Mizukage and the Tsuchikage's Ohnoki had joined forces to surround and kill them. However, this was indeed a good opportunity. Although they had to cooperate with the Iwagakure, as long as they could defeat Konoha, they would be able to get more missions. The Daimyo could also take the opportunity to destroy some small countries and increase the land area of ​​the Land of Lightning.

After all, Konoha's territory has been conquered. What do you small countries want to do if you still refuse to surrender?

In this way, the Hidden Cloud Village will be able to gain huge benefits!
Moreover, it would be a good thing if the five major countries could become four or three major countries.

"That's right. He is so arrogant that he wants to unify the ninja world, so he wants to destroy us all. As far as I know, he is the ultimate weapon of Konoha Village. He possesses both the Sharingan and Wood Release. He is very powerful. I am no match for him."

Goju Yagura covered his chest and showed his own injuries to the other shadows as if they were caused by Li Ke.

"I think Lord Oonoki has the most say, doesn't he?"

Therefore, the Raikage couldn't help but look at the Tsuchikage Ōnoki, the chief of the Iwagakure Village.

Oonoki looked at Karitachi Yagura in silence, then nodded.

"That's right. If it's really the combination of Wood Release and Sharingan, then if we want to survive, we must..."

While speaking, Ohnoki clenched his hands, and his body, which was as stubborn as a rock, even began to tremble, causing the Raikage Ai beside him to look at this stubborn old man in astonishment!
To be honest, he really didn't want to come here to attend this rally, but the death of Sarutobi Hiruzen forced him to come here. However, he didn't intend to attend the rally sincerely, but wanted to take the opportunity to disrupt this rally and find a way to get rid of Iwagakure. It would be best if he could take the opportunity to kill Ōnoki!
But looking at it now...

Ohnoki noticed the gaze of the Raikage Ai. He took a deep breath, then looked at the Raikage Ai and spoke.

"If the Raikage is willing to cooperate sincerely this time, then I am willing to go to the Hidden Cloud Village and kneel down to apologize to your father!"

When Ohnoki said this, Rasa, who had been acting as an invisible man, and Yekura behind him were shocked, not to mention the Raikage Ai, who looked at Ohnoki in disbelief, because he didn't believe that Ohnoki didn't know what this meant.

This means that it is impossible for the other party to leave the Hidden Cloud Village, and the Hidden Cloud Village will have to pay a huge sum of compensation!
Is this old guy crazy?
This was the first thought of Raikage Ai, but when he saw the cold sweat on Ohnomu, he was shocked to find that the other party was actually afraid of the legendary Murata Kiyotan!

Seeing Ohnoki's look, Karuta Yagura understood why Li Ke said that as long as they told Ohnoki, they would be able to successfully promote this alliance.

Because Ohnoki is really scared!

"Could it be that Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama were more powerful than Murata Kiyotani? But if that's the case, why do our ninja villages and daimyos still exist?"

Karitachi Yagura couldn't figure this out, but at this time, Oonoki recalled the past in his mind.

And the handsome man with long hair, who stood in front of them with red eyes, looking contemptuous of them!

At that time, the entire Iwagakure Village was incapable of surviving under the enemy's hands. The existence of the Iwagakure Village was entirely dependent on its own resilience. But if it weren't for the ideals of Hashirama Senju...

Such a humiliating reality made Ohnoki clench his fists. He could not allow the legendary Mangekyō Sharingan and Wood Release to be combined no matter what. Even if they were not as powerful as Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, he would never allow Konoha to popularize this thing!
So he raised his head and spoke his mind.

"We must destroy Konoha this time! Once this genetic technology becomes popular in Konoha, the world will be over!"

But the moment these words were spoken, the eyes of the Raikage Ai lit up, and Luo Sha beside him seemed to be thinking about something. But just when Ohnoki realized something was wrong and was about to say something -

"Oh? You said you want to destroy Konoha Village?"

A deep voice slowly emerged, and the next moment, Li Ke, who was wearing red wooden armor from ancient times, with long black hair and scarlet Sharingan rotating in his eyes, instantly fell in the center of the four shadows, looked down at the four shadows, and slowly spoke.

"Then let me see if you have the capacity to do this!"

But at this moment, the person reflected in Ohnoki's pupils was not Li Ke, but Uchiha Madara!
