My ninjutsu is not right

Chapter 52 Support arrives
"Go."

Link didn't blame his companions too much for their compassion.

To put it cruelly, with the combat power of his two companions being above the level of Genin but slightly lower than that of Chuunin, if an opponent who he can't stop really appears, the two of them will basically be food for the taking.

It’s also good to do something within your ability.

Xia breathed a sigh of relief and nodded vigorously. She knew how unreasonable her request was, and she seemed to feel the kindness and softness in the boss's heart. She walked over and began to give first aid to the most seriously injured warrior.

Pull out the sharp weapon stuck in the wound, stop the bleeding with chakra, bandage it...

While she was struggling to save other people's lives, the Fire Country tycoon sitting on the only sofa in the hall showed an impatient expression on his face. The injured warriors made too much noise, and the treatment process was bleeding all the time, which looked very bloody -

The master cannot bear to see such cruel things.

Why not let them all die outside?

But although he was a bit of a pig, he was not stupid enough. It was impossible for him to fall out with the highest force that protected him. He thought about it but would not say it. So he simply lay down and closed his eyes to think about his next move.

All other competing merchants were dead, merchants from the Wind Country were dead, and even the officials who bid for the project were dead, which meant that he had regained the opportunity to own the gold mine.

If I could get ownership of the gold mine, all this experience would be worth it.

A smile appeared on his face.

At the same time, Xia came back, looking pale and sweaty, with a depressed expression. Even after her rescue, another warrior still died of his injuries.

Most of the warriors who were still alive fell into a coma, and whether they could survive depended on their own fate.

This is all an ordinary doctor can do in the absence of medical tools. Even a ninja doctor can only increase the chance of survival. Only a medical ninja who can release high-level medical ninjutsu can rescue a dying person.

Link patted Xia's shoulder to comfort her. She had done her best and there was no need to be so harsh on an eleven-year-old child.

Iris stood guard at the door and looked back at Xia, who was too tired and quickly fell asleep leaning against the wall. There was something indescribable in her eyes.

Time passed little by little. About an hour later, Nara Yanshio came back. After entering the room, he first confirmed that there were no problems with his three subordinates. Then he glanced at the wealthy businessman from the Fire Country who had fallen asleep out of boredom, and then looked at the warriors who had been treated on the ground.

He smiled barely perceptible.
-
Late night, new hotel.

[It can instantly increase a large amount of chakra and enhance physical fitness. If I am not mistaken, that thing is most likely Orochimaru's curse seal...]

Link, who had already had a good sleep and a full meal, was on night duty, leaning against the wall, and his mind couldn't help but recall the scene of the day.

The middle-aged ninja, who was supposed to just stay where he was and wait to die, was unforgettable at first sight of the black pattern spreading from the back of his neck.

He had always believed that it was Akatsuki who killed the ninjas of the Hidden Rain Village, because the conflict between Akatsuki and Hanzo of the Salamander was irreconcilable, otherwise there would not have been internal strife in the Land of Rain for so many years.

In the comics, Akatsuki's boss 'Pein' even said that he needed a lot of money -

Although the reason why money is needed is unclear, we can see it from the cyberpunk-style Rain Village that was under construction when Pain appeared. It is estimated that people are investing money in the construction of the Rain Village.

The new bar that suddenly appeared when Jiraiya sneaked in did not attract anyone's attention. It is probably because the new buildings and shops in the Hidden Rain Village under construction are not very noticeable. Considering the lethality of Tendo Pain to buildings, I am afraid that when killing the Salamander Hanzo, the Hidden Rain Village should have suffered serious damage. Coupled with the need for development, reconstruction is inevitable.

After Pain launched the Super Shinra Tensei, the richest Konoha Village needed financial support from the Fire Nation to rebuild. It was natural for the Hidden Rain Village (Akatsuki) to be short of money.

So Link's first reaction was that Akatsuki wanted the gold mine.

The motive is too complete. Whether it is for money or to strike against Salamander Hanzo's power, there is a reason to do such a thing.

But similarly, after he discovered that the attacker seemed to have used a curse seal, he realized that the other person also had sufficient reasons to take action -

Orochimaru.

Why did the Sand Village launch the Konoha collapse plan? Because it was poor. Poverty caused the village to decline, and it could not tolerate the growth of its allies, so it needed to take risks to seek development opportunities.

Whether it is defeating Konoha Village to gain enough benefits, or attacking the Fire Country to take over its territory, the Sand Village can obtain considerable profits.

But this process will definitely require the sacrifice of countless lives. The fact that the Fourth Kazekage is willing to go there in person proves that he is risking his own life. However, the Fourth Kazekage's gold sand is the village's retreat. By blocking the retreat, it proves that the Sand Village is already risking everything.

Getting to the point of risking everything on one throw does not happen overnight, nor is it determined by one or two things.

What is needed is a complete dead end, to the point where one must die with honor.

Under such circumstances, there is only one person who has reason to push forward the plan to collapse Konoha: Orochimaru.

Orochimaru had every reason to injure the Sand Village, or even briefly strangle them, so that they could implement the Konoha collapse plan with him.

Under this logic, destroying the chances of the Sand Village to obtain the gold mine would threaten the sales of gold.

So, will the Fire Country give up this gold mine that it has a chance to get again?
Link frowned tightly. This was a real conspiracy. Even if Orochimaru's conspiracy was really made public, the Land of Fire and Konoha Village would not let go of the gold mine that might be in their hands.

The Sand Village can continue to send people and find merchants to purchase, but destruction is always much easier than construction. If you can do it once, you can do it a second time.

The sheer conflict of interests will inevitably push the dissatisfied Sand Village into opposition, thus bringing about the collapse of Konoha next year...

【Someone is approaching! 】

Link quickly cleared the thoughts from his head, decisively released the Clone Technique, and then prepared for battle.

"Don't be nervous." A woman's voice sounded, and then the female ninja who had met him once in the first B-level mission instantly appeared in front of him, followed by two ninjas in green vests.

"Hong, you're here." Nara Yanshui showed up just a little late and greeted them familiarly.

The kunoichi called Kurenai looked at Link with a smile and said, "Jounin, Yuhi Kurenai."

It was indeed her, a jonin who was proficient in illusion...

Or to be more specific, the girlfriend who was made pregnant by Asuma.
