Orochimaru, running away with a bucket

Who can say that she is a traitor if she leaves Konoha like this?

Who dares to say that she is a traitor?

I'm not even a ninja, how can I be a rebel ninja?

Water Country, Mist Village

The Third Mizukage looked at the books and scrolls that the ninjas sent to the Hidden Uzushio Village had exchanged their lives for. There were no books or scrolls that recorded the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques. There were only books that recorded some theories of sealing techniques.

With just these, it would be a long way to go to develop a sealing technique that can seal the tailed beasts within the body of a Jinchūriki.

Even so, the Third Mizukage thought that this operation was not too bad, but why did all the elite ninjas sent this time die in the Uzushio Village?

He sent not only elite ninjas, but also powerful ninjas from the Kaguya clan who had developed their Corpse Bloodline Limit to a certain level, as well as ninjas from the Hozuki clan to which the second generation Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu belonged.

Could it be that……

The Third Mizukage thought about the friction between the ninja villages. Although the Hidden Mist Village had never been involved, it was not ruled out that the ninja who died in the Hidden Mist Village this time was killed by ninjas from other ninja villages.

The Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Iwa Village did not fare well either. They did not get any scrolls containing sealing techniques from the Uzumaki clan, but they did get books and scrolls containing theories on sealing techniques. They also suspected that the people who died in the Hidden Uzushio Village were deliberately killed by ninjas from other ninja villages.

After all, the ninjas sent to invade the Uzushiogakure were all elite ninjas. The Uzushiogakure was so small that even a larger ninja village would be destroyed in a short time.

The Country of Wind, Sand Hidden Village.

In the Kazekage Building, the Third Kazekage looked at the books and scrolls that the ninjas he sent out had exchanged their lives for and felt that it was not worth it.

Most of the people sent out for this operation were puppet ninjas and some wind-style ninjas, because they were chosen for their survivability.

As a result, no one came back alive, and all died in the Uzushiogakure Village.

Why did I send them to join in the fun?

The Third Kazekage believed that it was his own poor decision-making that led to the deaths of those ninjas in the Hidden Uzushio Village in exchange for some worthless things.

I should have just pretended earlier. Why bother coveting the things of the Uzushiogakure Village?

As a result, stealing chickens will not lose rice.

The population of Sand Village is not large to begin with, and with each ninja dying, there are fewer and fewer ninjas. Don't even mention how heartbroken he is now.

What's more, in terms of Jinchūriki, Sunagakure already has a Jinchūriki, but he is now locked up in prison and is of no use at all!

The Third Kazekage thought of Iwagakure and Kumogakure, who had always been at odds with Sand Village, and suspected that Iwagakure and Kumogakure had killed the Sand Village ninjas, and that Kirigakure might also have been involved.

Otherwise, with the survivability of the Puppet Ninja and the Wind Style Ninja, how could they die so easily in the Uzushio Village? No one came back alive, it was obvious that they were silenced!

Thinking of this, the Third Kazekage clenched his fists in anger. He felt that the Sand Village was being treated as a victim by other ninja villages, and he no longer believed the words of other ninja villages.

You said that all the ninjas sent out died in Uzushiogakure. I think it was my Sunagakure ninjas who were killed in Uzushiogakure. Not only did you get the biggest benefits, but you also killed all my Sunagakure ninjas to silence them!

Is this the kind of collaboration you wanted?!

PS:

Looking at the Kages of the major ninja villages in Naruto, there are really few who have political acumen. Under the advice of those high-level military advisors, they can't even manage a village properly, let alone replace the daimyo to manage the country.

Volume 118: Chapter 4 (K) The Concept of Establishing a Sealing Class

"I knew this would be the outcome, so I didn't want to get involved."

In the Root base, Danzo Shimura looked at Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu, who were rejected by Orochimaru and looked unhappy, and was very glad that he did not go over.

"Danzo, we are doing this for Konoha!"

Seeing Shimura Danzo's gloating expression, Utane Koharu put her hands on the desk and looked at her very unhappily, "Didn't you feel the power of Zero Tail when you fought that Shennong before?"

"The Zero-Tail is different from the Nine-Tail. Even if it's a monster created by part of the Nine-Tail, can Konoha find another person to suppress the tailed beast? The Zero-Tail is now sealed by Orochimaru. Can you guarantee that the Zero-Tail's Jinchūriki won't go berserk? Or do you not know how many times the tailed beasts of other ninja villages have gone berserk? And how much damage has it caused them? If the Zero-Tail's Jinchūriki goes berserk in Konoha, who will be responsible?"

Danzo Shimura looked at Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En and asked questions one after another. In his opinion, creating the Zero-Tails Jinchuriki was not to increase Konoha's combat power, but to increase the threat to Konoha. If the Zero-Tails Jinchuriki went berserk, how much damage would it cause to Konoha?

Who can be held responsible for the damage caused by the Zero-Tail Jinchuriki?

"..."

The two were stumped by Shimura Danzo's series of questions.

Seeing that the two were silent, Danzo Shimura continued, "Koharu, En, you are too anxious. The Second Hokage, Tobirama-sama, never considered the Nine-Tails as Konoha's fighting force. Mito-sama sealed the Nine-Tails to prevent others from using it, and yet you want to create a Jinchūriki yourself. This is cowardice, a fear of war! Are you worried that Konoha will lose before the war even begins?"

In the end, Danzo Shimura couldn't help but blame them. In his opinion, their behavior was a manifestation of fear of the four major ninja villages!

With Konoha's strength, why should it be afraid of the four major ninja villages?

Even if a war breaks out, Danzo Shimura doesn't think Konoha will lose.

Konoha is now prosperous. If a large number of ninjas had not been sent to prevent the attacks of the three major ninja villages, resulting in an internal emptiness of Konoha, how could the Sky Ninja have had the opportunity to take advantage of it?

If Konoha had not been internally weak, the attack by the Sky Ninja on Konoha would have been quelled in a short time. The most troublesome things would be the aerial fortress and Shennong who controlled the power of the Zero Tail!

The most important thing is that as the top leaders of Konoha, the four of them are still young. If war comes again, they can still lead Konoha to victory on the battlefield.

What's more, the new generation of Konoha has also grown up. Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Tsunade, as disciples of Sarutobi Hiruzen, have all become senior ninjas and have become capable of standing on their own.

"Who are you calling a coward?"

Utane Koharu blushed and grabbed Shimura Danzo's collar.

"Koharu! Calm down!"

Mitomon En quickly hugged Utane Koharu and tried to pull her away.

"Danzo is right, we were too impatient."

Mitomon En persuaded him, saying that he thought what Shimura Danzo said made sense, and that Konoha was not yet so weak that it needed to create a jinchūriki to increase its combat power.

Hiruzen probably told them to tell Orochimaru after knowing that he would refuse.

I did something really shameful...

"Ugh……"

Utane Koharu released Danzo Shimura's collar, sighed, and said, "We still don't know what they've got in Uzushiogakure. We might have to face Jinchūriki from all the major ninja villages on the battlefield in the future. How can I not be anxious? Have you forgotten the Kinkaku and Ginkaku brothers?"

Utane Koharu didn't want to mention them. They were so difficult to deal with because they had obtained some of the Nine-Tails' power.

Shennong also used part of the Nine-Tailed Fox to create the Zero-Tailed Fox, which is why she was so anxious.

If part of the Nine-Tailed Fox's power is so exaggerated, wouldn't the other tailed beasts be even more difficult to deal with?

"It would be great if Tsunade inherited the Wood Release from the First Generation..."

Utane Koharu sighed again, and Mitomonen and Shimura Danzo were both silent.

Yes, if they had the Wood Release of the First Hokage, why would they worry about the Jinchūriki of other ninja villages?

The two Hokage advisors didn't stay at Root's base for long before leaving.

"Orochimaru, what do you think?"

Shimura Danzo asked, looking to the side.

"I've heard of the Wood Release Secret Technique. It's the ninjutsu used by the first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, to quell the chaos."

Orochimaru stepped out of the shadows, wearing a robe made of white snake sloughs. "Danzo-sama, I don't think blindly recreating Wood Release is a good idea."

Orochimaru didn't expect that the Konoha high-level officials had the idea of recreating Hashirama Senju's Wood Release at this time. She did not agree with conducting Wood Release experiments, especially using living people for experiments.

What's more, she already knew the results of the experiment. Those who voluntarily participated in the Wood Release experiment with the hope of recreating the Wood Release of the first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, did not receive the reappearance of Wood Release, but a miserable death.

Hashirama's cells devoured their cells and turned into wooden spikes, which burst out from their bodies.

"Instead of thinking about those unrealistic things, I suggest that Konoha set up a sealing team specifically to restrain the Jinchūriki of the hostile ninja village."

Orochimaru gave his own suggestion that sealing techniques are the most effective way to deal with Jinchūriki. So why didn't Konoha set up a sealing class in advance and gather people with talent in learning sealing techniques.

The emergence of Yamato was ultimately just a coincidence among coincidences.

She is not Orochimaru in the original work. She cannot do such a thing as conducting human experiments on children.

If she had made up her mind to conduct human experiments, she would have done it long ago, and biotechnology research would not have been so slow.

"Indeed, but wouldn't it be too late to train a Sealed Ninja now?"

Danzo Shimura thought that what Orochimaru said made sense. Since the tailed beast Jinchuriki were so difficult to deal with, why not just seal them? Not to mention that the Uzumaki clan's sealing technique could restrain the tailed beasts.

"Danzo-sama, it may be difficult for one person to perform the sealing technique, but we can split the sealing technique into parts, with each person responsible for different steps. This way, multiple casters can perform the same sealing technique. Not only will the time required to learn the sealing technique be greatly reduced, but the chakra of multiple casters will far exceed that of a single caster, and the sealing effect will be greatly enhanced."

Orochimaru felt that this kind of thing was not difficult to solve. She had learned many sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan and had the most say.

Shimura Danzo's left eye widened a little, with an expression that said he could do this. He had never thought that the sealing technique could be split up and performed separately.

If one person is responsible for one step, it can indeed greatly reduce the difficulty and time of learning.

"Danzo-sama, there is no better seal ninja in Konoha than Granny Mito. Even before the Uzushiogakure was destroyed, there was no one in Uzushiogakure who was better than Granny Mito."

Orochimaru thought of Chigusa Uzumaki who was still recuperating in the Land of Waves. After a while, he secretly arranged for her to meet with Grandma Mito to relieve her from worrying.

"The most important thing is to learn the sealing technique in order to prevent Konoha from being attacked by the tailed beast Jinchuriki from other villages. Granny Mito will not refuse."

Orochimaru had pondered this question before: Konoha had a powerful sealing ninja like Uzumaki Mito, so why didn't they even have a sealing class? There weren't many people who knew how to seal.

Until now, she still didn't understand, is it difficult to set up a sealing class?

"Orochimaru, you have solved another big problem for Konoha!"

Shimura Danzo said with a smile, he knew that calling Orochimaru over in advance would yield some results, and now the surprise has come, right?

It's you who aren't using your brains where they should be used...you're just thinking about taking shortcuts.

Orochimaru looked at Danzo Shimura speechlessly. He knew that the tailed beasts could be sealed by sealing techniques, but he had never thought of using sealing techniques against the jinchūriki.

In the original work, Orochimaru also knew how to use the Five Elements Seal to interfere with Uzumaki Naruto's use of the Nine-Tails Chakra!

Look at you again...

Ugh……

"Danzo-sama, if you have nothing else to do, I will be going back now. I will be quite busy recently."

Seeing that Danzo Shimura had nothing more to say, Orochimaru decided to go home and study the forbidden scroll he found in the ruins of the aerial fortress.

"If you need anything, just tell me. Don't be polite."

Danzo Shimura knew that Orochimaru wanted to study the Zero-Tails, and reminded him: "Don't make too much noise when studying."

"I see."

Orochimaru smiled slightly and disappeared from the spot.

After Orochimaru left, Danzo Shimura thought about how to tell Sarutobi Hiruzen about Orochimaru's proposal, and decided to go there himself, and by the way, mock him for his good deeds and failure to persuade Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu. This move would inevitably cause Orochimaru's favorability towards the Konoha high-level officials to plummet.

Anyway, it won't affect him.

Sometimes choice is more important than effort, and he made the right choice at the right time.

Hokage Building

"Danzo, why are you here?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was having a headache, looked at Shimura Danzo who walked in. The expression on his face, as if something good had happened, was extremely annoying in his eyes.

"Hiruzen, I have good news for you this time."

Danzo Shimura told Sarutobi Hiruzen about Orochimaru's idea of establishing a sealing team.

"The Sealing Squad... This is indeed a way to contain the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Danzo Shimura with a hint of surprise and suspicion in his eyes. He didn't quite believe that it was his attention. Even if he thought of something, he would never involve Lord Mito.

"Danzo, is this what you thought?"

"No, this is Orochimaru's way."

Danzo Shimura raised his eyebrows and looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi with a hint of pride on his face.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was already in a bad mood, now became even more angry. His disciple had such a good solution, but he didn't tell Danzo about it.

"Ah... Hiruzen, I understand you."

Danzo Shimura patted Sarutobi Hiruzen on the shoulder and left in a leisurely manner.

What did you say you understood?

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face turned red with anger as he watched Shimura Danzo leave. He was so angry and aggrieved. It was not like he had not organized them before.

"Ugh……"
