Konoha: This Uchiha is not right

"I found a lot of Sand Ninja corpses around, and there is a person waiting in front of us. From observation, it seems that he is not from the Sand Village."

"Oh?" Uchiha Zong frowned: "One person, all the Sand Ninjas are dead?"

This news is a bit unusual. They are killing so wantonly and it seems they are still waiting for them. This shows that the other guy is probably full of confidence.

And Uchiha Zong was really curious about who was so unscrupulous.

"Tell all your men to stop. There are no Sand Village people in this area now, so you can rest assured."

Thinking of this, he turned to Sarah, who looked a little anxious, and said, obviously Sarah also heard those words.

"I'll go see who it is. I'll let you know when I can leave."

After saying this, Uchiha Zong left behind a shadow clone and then quickly moved forward.

Shisui and Kohinata Mukai followed him, and just moments later, the three of them were able to see the guy who seemed to be waiting for them.

The stranger was wrapped in a gray-brown cloak, even his face was covered with a cloth, leaving only a pair of bright eyes exposed.

But the look in those eyes made people feel extremely uncomfortable, as if a wild animal was staring at its prey.

"Hey, you're finally here."

The stranger turned his head, looked at him, slowly lifted his hood, pulled off the cloth cover, tilted his head, and said jokingly.

"I've always been curious. There's been a large group of people moving behind me. It turns out that Loulan hired you and wanted to leave."

As he spoke, his face appeared in front of the three Uchiha clan members, and after seeing this guy's face, the three of them looked a little strange.

"Are you the Scorpion of the Red Sand?"

"Yes, it was me. No need to thank me for cleaning up those Sand Ninjas, because you will be joining them as well."

Chapter 126 The Collision between the Mangekyo and the Samsara Eye

"Deputy Minister Minato, I wonder what you want from me."

In the Hokage's office, Orochimaru looked at the respectful Minato Namikaze in front of him and asked with a slightly curious smile.

Orochimaru's perception of Minato Namikaze is still good. After all, this guy is a genius enough and is also Jiraiya's disciple.

But this point destined that Orochimaru had some favorable impression on Minato Namikaze.

He also knew that Namikaze Minato remained rational and restrained when competing for the position of Hokage, and ultimately did not choose to listen to the Third Hokage and chose to withdraw from the competition.

After that, he entered the Anbu and became Uchiha Zong's right-hand man.

These two points combined made Orochimaru's favorability towards Minato Namikaze increase a lot.

After all, Uchiha clan trusts this guy and gave him the position of deputy minister, so as a partner, Orochimaru will naturally treat him differently.

"Hokage-sama, there seems to be some unexpected events in the Wind Country."

Minato Namikaze considered his words for a moment, then he spoke respectfully and seriously.

"I wonder if Lord Hokage knows about Loulan?"

"Oh, you said this."

When Orochimaru heard what Minato Namikaze said, he immediately remembered that this boy had gone to Loulan many years ago to carry out the mission of sealing the dragon vein.

This made him feel a little funny. He knew that the Uchiha clan must have arrived in Loulan and had already taken action on the dragon vein, which attracted the attention of Minato Namikaze.

"Did you sense any unusual movement in the dragon vein?"

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Namikaze Shui looked at Orochimaru's attitude and suddenly had a very strange feeling. Does this attitude mean that the Hokage knows something?

"Well, then it's alright, you can go down first." Orochimaru nodded in understanding: "It's no surprise that this was done by Zongjun, there's nothing strange about it."

"The Minister did it?" Namikaze Minato's eyes widened instantly. He said in disbelief, "Why, Hokage?"

"Why?" Orochimaru looked at Minato Namikaze in confusion: "You ask a very strange question. Is it your sense of justice that is playing tricks on you, or do you simply not put yourself in the right position?"

"Hokage, please tell me clearly." Namikaze Minato hesitated for a moment, and finally said seriously: "Shouldn't those things belong to Loulan? And those powers are too dangerous. If we do this..."

"Where is Loulan?" Orochimaru laughed. He really didn't mind helping Jiraiya to train his disciples.

"Loulan is located in the Country of Wind..." Minato Namikaze answered.

"Since you also know that it is in the Kingdom of Wind, then why don't you think about Loulan's true situation?"

Orochimaru tapped the table lightly, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.

"Will the Kingdom of Wind allow the existence of a country within a country? Will the Sand Village really give up the power of the dragon vein?

They are unwilling to give up, and Loulan wants to protect such power. Have you ever thought about what will happen to those people of Loulan?

This is the small aspect, and on a bigger scale, if Loulan's power is really that dangerous, then what will be the consequences if it is obtained by the Sand Village?

Have you ever thought carefully about the geography, transportation, climate, resources, and environment of the Wind Country? What is the best way for them to solve the problems? "

Orochimaru's series of questions made Minato Namikaze a little confused on the spot.

These questions are neither profound nor simple. Each question is closely linked to the others, and it takes a very high vision to consider them all at once.

Minato Namikaze was very smart. After connecting these questions together, he got an answer.

And the answer to this question has actually been revealed to the entire ninja world by the Sand Village, which is to seize what they don't have through war!

Wars in the ninja world have always had a chain reaction. Once the Sand Village attacks Konoha, other ninja villages will inevitably follow suit.

From what Orochimaru had told him, he understood that the other major villages all had their flaws, but only Konoha occupied the most fertile land.

If you want to break through the limitations, then a new Ninja War will begin!

"Think clearly?"

Orochimaru looked at Minato Namikaze, who had a somewhat ugly expression on his face, and he smiled and shook his head.

"Vice Minister Minato, do you understand now why the Sandaime wanted you to be the Hokage?

Because you don't understand anything, you can be controlled.

And now you should understand why Zongjun is the minister and you can only be his deputy.

Although he is still young, and even the same age as your disciple, his vision, thinking and ability are far beyond yours.

I don’t know why he values ​​you so much, maybe it’s because of Jiraiya, or maybe you are really good enough, so I am willing to give you a chance and explain it to you.

But next time you encounter this kind of problem, broaden your horizons, think more about it, and ask your teacher if you don’t understand.

Although that idiot looks stupid, he knows a lot of things. However, he is too idealistic, which is why he knows he can't be Hokage."

"Yes, Lord Hokage." Namikaze Minato lowered his head. He seemed a little embarrassed to look at Orochimaru.

Just a few minutes, just a few words, but it seemed as if Minato Namikaze saw the world clearly again.

And because of this, he admired his minister even more in his heart.

He is so small but can see so clearly. He really deserves to be only a deputy, while he can throw a lot of things to himself and just control the overall situation.

"Go down."

Orochimaru waved his hand casually and spoke seemingly nonchalantly.

“Your minister should bring back all the people from Loulan and have the Anbu people prepare for the handover.

Also, now that the Anbu is handed over to you, you must do your best to make achievements. It would be a pity if you can't grasp such a good opportunity for training."

"Yes, Hokage-sama." Namikaze Minato spoke again, his expression became much more serious: "I will not let Hokage-sama, let Minister-sama down!"

"Don't say it, do it." Orochimaru shook his head gently: "Mr. Zong never said such words, he always proved it with practical actions."

"I understand, Hokage-sama." Namikaze Minato nodded seriously, and then he bowed again: "Then I will take my leave first, Hokage-sama."

After saying this, Namikaze Minato turned around and left the Hokage's office. The information he heard today really had a great impact on him, and he needed to digest it well.

He now understood how simple his way of looking at the problem was, and how stupid his way of dealing with Loulan was.

Look at my own minister, he just used his own strength to recruit people and bring them back. The gap between me and the minister is really huge.

After watching Minato Namikaze leave, Orochimaru couldn't help but smile and shook his head, but he was thinking of the Uchiha Clan in his heart.

"Now that we have the dragon vein, we should prepare to go to the Water Kingdom.

I don’t know what the results of this trip to the Water Country will be, Zong Jun…”

……

Orochimaru was muttering about Uchiha Mune, and Uchiha Mune was looking at Scorpion with a puzzled look on his face.

It had been a while since he had heard someone threaten him like this, and it made him feel a little nostalgic.

After all, ever since he opened his Mangekyo and became famous, the enemies he encountered were all from local ninja villages. In this situation, others still knew him to some extent.

Therefore, even if those people did not care about it, they would not be too arrogant. After all, the name of the human shadow tree must have some ability to have such a big name.

Uchiha Mune was not sure whether Sasori had complete information about himself, but it was not surprising that he did not recognize him, after all, they were all wearing masks.

I'm afraid Scorpion thought they were from the Hidden Mist Village, or some other bounty hunters or something like that.

If he is really from these two places, there is nothing wrong with his attitude being too genuine. After all, Scorpion's strength is no joke.

Whoosh!

when!

Scorpion was not the kind of person who liked to talk nonsense. As soon as he finished speaking, several puppets appeared instantly, and the next moment, these puppets had already taken action.

A puppet wielding a sickle rushed out in an instant and swept towards the three people with the knife.

However, at the moment when the knife was about to hit them, Mukai suddenly jumped forward and chakra appeared in his hand, directly blocking the knife.

"Oh? Not bad?"

When Scorpion saw that his attack was blocked, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then he laughed.

"So, how are you going to deal with this?"

With a slight movement of his fingers, the humanoid puppet suddenly opened its mouth, and poisonous needles with cold rays rushed out instantly, so dense that no one knew how many there were.

"Ninjutsu: Poison Needle Technique!"

Mukai's figure suddenly disappeared, not only him, but also Sou and Shisui disappeared in an instant at this moment.

With the body-flash technique, all the poison needles fell into the sand, but Mukai relied on the body-flash technique to move forward and rushed directly towards the scorpion at this moment.

As an Anbu member, Mukai has had countless dealings with people from the Sand Village, and he knows that these people's puppets are very difficult to deal with.

But their real bodies are relatively easier to deal with. He still uses soft fists, and as long as he can get close to them he can gain a huge advantage!

"Wind Release·Wind Cut!"

Scorpion instantly noticed Mukai's movements, and he immediately controlled another puppet to attack Mukai.

However, he now seemed to realize that the people before him were not as easy to deal with as he had imagined.

"It seems that they are not bounty hunters. I know that bounty hunters are powerful. It is obviously unlikely that three people can form a team. Could it be that Kirigakure has sent out some powerful character?"

Scorpion quickly thought in his mind that although the battle was only a brief moment, as a ninja he needed to maintain the ability to adjust his mentality at any time.

He may have been careless before, but now that he has discovered the problem, he will definitely make adjustments as soon as possible!

"Humph."

Mukai has no idea what Scorpion is thinking, and even if he knew he wouldn't care.

In other words, his character destined him to not care who his opponent is, the only thing he cares about is how to kill his opponent!

His hands shone with azure chakra, and then he swung his palm quickly. The powerful wind escape technique was dispersed by his palm as soon as it reached him.

It was also at this moment that he suddenly noticed that the sand under his feet became a little strange. This made him realize something, and he jumped up without any hesitation.

Sure enough, the moment he jumped, the sand spread towards him madly.

"Bagua Palm - Breaking Mountain Strike!"

Facing this scene, he appeared extremely calm. His chakra moved slightly, and the next moment he punched out, and the spreading sand and gravel were directly blown away by his punch.

"Magnetic escape?" Mukai landed on the ground. He looked at Scorpion, who had retreated a distance, and a puppet beside him. "It seems that you have hunted many ninjas from your Sand Village."

"I'm no longer from Sunagakure, but you make me curious." Scorpion looked at Mukai solemnly: "Your boxing style seems to be similar to that of the Hyuga. Are you from Konoha?"
