Tsunade was silent for a moment.
Orochimaru was indeed right. Opportunities are rare nowadays, but...
"There are so many Suna ninjas stationed in Platycodon Castle. Even without the Third Kazekage, we will suffer heavy losses."
Orochimaru looked at Tsunade and said very calmly: "In this situation, do you still feel sorry for the battle losses?"
Without waiting for Tsunade to speak, Orochimaru shook his head and said: "I have also felt sad. This is the place where the war first started, and it goes deep into the Kingdom of Wind. Supply transportation is ten times more difficult than other war zones.
Every time Sunagakure fights with us, I feel very sad.
When I couldn't sleep at night, I would look through the death list alone to see how many acquaintances there were!
Later, I had no fluctuations at all, and now, I am completely numb. The number of people who died is just a general number according to military intelligence! "
"Tsunade, from the beginning of the war to now, we have killed enough ninjas. The top priority is not to wait until how long until Tatsumi and Sakumo defeat the Earth Country?"
"Do you think they won't be tired after leading thousands of people, traveling thousands of miles, and fighting in three war zones? Is Chen willing to invade Kirigakure Village alone? Teacher, is he willing to face two thousand sand ninjas
It’s not like I was forced to do nothing. "
"The war zone in the Kingdom of Wind has been dragging on for too long. Too many ninjas have died here. We must end the war as soon as possible and put the remaining strength into other battlefields. This is the wisest thing to do!"
“Yes, many people will die this time, more than before, even you and me may die!
But as long as we pass Platycodon Mountain, it will be a flat plain, and we can approach Sunagakure Village, even if the Third Kazekage doesn't want to surrender.
This is the last chance. We have no time to hesitate. If one more person dies here, the Third Ninja World War may end one day early. The reason is that simple! "
Orochimaru exhaled a breath, narrowed his eyes and whispered softly: "This is war, this is Konoha."
Orochimaru sat alone on the chair, looking a little alone.
Tsunade looked at Orochimaru, her childhood friend who had almost grown up with her.
She suddenly thought of Jiraiya who was far away in Yu Country. It seemed that the three of them had not been together for a long time.
Then, she thought of Kushina in the village, Tatsu who was also in the Kingdom of Wind, and the rope tree in the Kingdom of Earth.
After a while, Tsunade said softly: "I understand."
Tsunade turned to leave, but when she opened the tent, she suddenly turned around and said: "Orochimaru, I feel you should smile more and stop holding it in the laboratory all the time.
Your current temperament is so cold that the little girl on duty just now was scared to tears by you. "
“…”
…
…
As Orochimaru and Tsunade mobilized the ninjas, Chen, who was far away on the other side of the desert, also received the message.
"Teacher, he is going to launch a general attack." Chen turned to the Third Hokage and said.
"A general attack?" The Third Hokage squinted his eyes and thought for a while before nodding: "Although I am a little impatient, now is indeed the best time."
Although the Third Hokage has always been in the village and only came out this time, he actually knows the fighting situation in all war zones very well.
"It seems... I have to visit Platycodon City again." The Third Hokage spoke very calmly and made a decision quickly.
"Are you going to provide support?"
The Third Hokage nodded: "You have never been to Platycodon City, so you don't know the terrain there.
Platycodon City is built on a mountain with a dangerous terrain. It is the most unique terrain in the Kingdom of Wind and the only defensive site with natural depth. "
The Third Hokage gritted his teeth and said: "So I must participate in this attack. I can't let all the ninjas of Konoha die in Platycodon City. If I can save one person from death, it will be one!"
Chen hesitated for a moment and then asked: "What do you do next? Do you need me to join the war?"
The Third Hokage looked at Chen, shook his head and said with a smile: "You don't need to go. This ambush was actually all based on you. I didn't put in much effort. You've consumed too much, so you should go back and rest.
The Kingdom of Earth still needs you to rush back and take charge of the overall situation. Guang Shuomo may not be able to support it alone. "
Chen hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
The Third Hokage continued: "In this war, you started from the Kingdom of Wind and traveled to several war zones. Thank you for your hard work."
"This is all what I should do as a Konoha ninja." Chen said softly.
The Third Hokage nodded with satisfaction, then his expression gradually became a little solemn, and said: "But there is still one thing I need to remind you."
"The Mangekyo Sharingan possesses extremely powerful power. The eyes of those who open the eyes will have different pupil techniques."
"It's just that using this kind of power comes with a price." Sandai said slowly.
"If it is used too frequently, the degree of vision loss will be aggravated, and it may even cause temporary blindness."
The Third Hokage added: "Temporary blindness will improve with the recovery of pupil power, but... as the number and time of use become longer and longer, vision will irreversibly decline... "
"Until the end, the light is completely lost."
Chen nodded very calmly, "I know, these clan elders have already informed me."
Of course, he did not know it from within the clan, but this did not prevent him from passing on the source of this information to the great elder.
Of course, the great elder did tell him that he, the future clan leader, should know these things.
The Third Hokage nodded. "It's good that you know, but I still want to remind you to try not to use this power in future battles. If you really become blind, your future career as a ninja will be almost ruined."
The Third Hokage looked at Chen and suddenly sighed.
"Your father once opened the Mangekyo Sharingan. With those eyes, Kage saved Danzo and I many times."
"It's just that he was ambushed later and his eyes were gouged out."
When he thought of this, the Third Hokage couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, but at that time there was no way to investigate who did it.
The Third Hokage even once doubted the former Uchiha clan leader... Uchiha-san.
"It would be great if those eyes are still there. I heard the Second Hokage say that Uchiha Madara once transplanted his brother's Mangekyō Sharingan. Not only did the light return to the eyes, but the eyes that regained the light, No more blindness, but permanent strength.”
"That is, the eternal Mangekyō Sharingan."
"In fact, before Madara, there was no record of a ninja from the Uchiha clan opening the Mangekyō Sharingan. Since Madara can transplant his brother's eyes, you may not be able to restore the light by transplanting your father's eyes."
"Unfortunately… "
The Third Hokage sighed again.
Chen and Madara are obviously different, just like Kagami once was.
As Kagami's son and Orochimaru's disciple, he himself almost watched Chen grow up, so the Third Hokage naturally believed in Chen.
If the other party can obtain this power, Konoha will once again have power far beyond other villages. In the next few decades, as long as Chen does not die, the war will not start again.
What a pity...
The Third Hokage clenched his fists as the wind and sand hit his face, ruffling his hair at the temples.
If he knew who did it back then, he would definitely kill that person!
