When the combat force was just allocated and deployed, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not mention the names of Orochimaru and the four others. Naturally, they had other uses.
Everyone can also guess that Orochimaru and the others have captured the Third Kazekage, and they can almost be regarded as the four people with the greatest merits on the battlefield of Kawakuni. They will naturally participate in this negotiation.
Even if it's just to be a mascot.
Well, they really just want to be mascots. After all, the youngest of the four is only twelve years old, and the oldest is only twenty-four. They are good players on the battlefield, but they are not good enough in politics. .
But then again, even if it is to act as a mascot, there are still a group of people licking their faces and wanting to join in. This kind of big scene has not happened once in many years. If you can go in and have a look, it will also be a talking point for your children and grandchildren in the future.
I think back then, my grandfather and I were also at the scene. That guy, that scene, it was quite big! It was really: gongs and drums roaring, firecrackers blasting, village flags waving, and a sea of people. One step down, and several sand ninjas were trampled to death...
When they thought of this, everyone looked at Orochimaru and their eyes became more and more passionate. However, they were envious, and they still had some b-numbers. If they really wanted to rush forward and anally fuck the Third Kazekage and Shukaku, I wonder if they would see the red flag waving. But the waving of the spirit flag is certain.
Everyone also understands that the position of the Fourth Hokage... is probably between the Sannin and Sakumo, and everyone else should just go to sleep.
As for Uchiha Tatsu, he was naturally ignored.
Without him, he is too young.
... ...
When the four people walked out of the office, the sun was shining brightly outside.
Uchiha Tatsun looked up at the sky. The clouds were thick, reflecting the brilliance of the sun, as if they were changing every moment.
"So you have decided to use Mikoto's injury as an excuse?" Orochimaru suddenly asked in a hoarse voice.
"Yeah, what else? I can't go out on missions now." Uchiha Tatsumi shrugged.
The two were discussing Uchiha's preparations to attack the Sunagakure negotiation team. After returning from Hyuga Sky, Uchiha Tatsu discussed it with Orochimaru through the psychic snake, and finally came up with such a reason.
—Mikoto is going to have an operation and he can’t leave her for the time being.
This reason is impeccable, everyone knows the relationship between Mikoto and him.
But Orochimaru was still a little unbelievable.
The war is obviously over, why take the risk for a sneak attack
You know, the village will compensate you for your losses during the war, but the village will never compensate you for the losses caused by your own troubles, and it is even happy to see the consequences.
And in Orochimaru's view, there is no right or wrong in war, only positions.
The sand ninja killed your relatives, didn't you kill your relatives? Since the other party has surrendered and the benefits have been obtained, there is no need to continue to die and cause greater losses.
But there are exceptions to everything.
If you don't have enough understanding of the madness in Uchiha's bones, it would be difficult to think of their plans.
Therefore, despite the fact that Orochimaru's intelligence and strength are sufficient now, in terms of experience and grasp of people's hearts, he is still in trouble, at least not as good as an old fox like Hinata Sky.
"That's it. I still have an experiment to do, so I'm going back first."
As he spoke, Orochimaru was about to leave.
"do not."
Jiraiya suddenly grabbed his arm.
"Since the end of the war, the four of us haven't gotten together. Let's take advantage of it now. We are still busy in the afternoon anyway."
"Okay." Sakumo nodded, it would be fine if he went back.
Seeing Uchiha Chen hesitate, Jiraiya quickly added: "My treat!"
Uchiha Chen's eyes lit up and he was about to agree, but Jiraiya added another sentence: "The location is in the alley east of the commercial street.
I think you all know which one it is, right? "
The expression on Uchiha Tatsu's face froze, he knew exactly which house it was.
When he returned to Konoha two years ago, he was tricked by the rope tree, and then he invited hundreds of classmates to have dinner there.
Originally, he pretended to be Tsunade to get credit, but later he was discovered, and he had no choice but to become Jiraiya.
God knows how much the interest should be for two years of debt. Anyway, it won't be too little, otherwise Jiraiya wouldn't look so angry.
"I have returned to the village three times in the past four years. Why is it that I am not here, but a large amount of money is credited to my account every year
Who can explain it to me! "
"..."
Uchiha Chen was sure that he had only received credit once, and the others must have nothing to do with him.
"Jiraiya, I still have an experiment to do, why don't you ask Tsunade?" Orochimaru was a little unsure.
"Tsunade, of course I will invite you later. She even ordered takeout yesterday, in my name.
Um? Chen, where are you going? "
"Ahaha, I need to go to the toilet... Frequent urination is an old problem, you know."
The honest Sakumo looked at the fight in front of him with a confused expression, and at the same time secretly made a decision: He must never give his daughter to Uchiha Tatsu!
... ... .
At this time, Sand Hidden Village was thousands of miles away.
Compared with the peaceful atmosphere of Konoha, this place is a bit depressing.
The clouds of war have not completely dissipated from here. The Third Kazekage is still in the hands of Konoha, and only unknown exploitation is waiting for them.
Yesterday, Suna Ninja's negotiating team had already set off, and Ebizo did not follow this team to Konoha.
The village currently lacks high-end combat power. As one of the elders, he must stay and take charge of the overall situation to defend against the crane's sneak attack.
At ten o'clock at noon, he walked through the empty streets and walked towards the ninja school.
This time of day is his favorite time, away from all kinds of complexity, he can enjoy the rare silence.
The sky in Sand Hidden Village was always so bright that it was incomprehensible. Rows of tall sand castles looked like giants against the sky. Looking at the scenery in front of him, he realized that this kind of peace was what he wanted.
But the price is too high.
At eleven-thirty, he looked at the watch and frowned, because Scorpio would have walked out of school at this time.
But no one has been seen yet.
"What, Scorpio didn't come to class this morning?"
"Yes, Ebizou-sama, I thought you knew."
Ebizo was not in the mood to argue with the irresponsible chuunin in front of him, so he hurriedly walked towards his home.
But no Scorpion was found at home.
So he went to several places where Xie usually went, but found nothing.
Ebizo was a little anxious. If Xia disappeared, he really didn't know what Chiyo would do when he came back.
But where can I go
Suddenly, a shiver ran through his body.
Could it be...
He turned around and ran towards the cemetery of Sunagakure Village.
