In a laboratory in the Land of Rain, Orochimaru looked at the document in his hand and couldn't help but reveal a deep thought.
This document was delivered to him by Kabuto Yakushi, and the person who asked him to deliver the information was Uchiha Hahara!
Habara actually dug out Kabuto Yakushi, which surprised Orochimaru, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was all reasonable.
Habara's sphere of influence in Konoha is really unimaginable. It's really not surprising that he can do all this. It would be really surprising if he couldn't find it.
Facts have proved that it is indeed not difficult for him to find these people. It just depends on whether he wants to touch these people after he finds them.
Now that Habara is moving, no matter what the purpose is, Orochimaru must be alerted. After all, Orochimaru himself knows that his contact with Habara is getting less and less now.
Hahara is an extremely dangerous person. No one will deny this. His danger lies not only in his strength, but also in his methods and character.
Even though Orochimaru has made great progress in the past three years, he has achieved impressive results in both the art of reincarnation and reincarnation in the dirty earth.
And he can summon the more powerful Senju Brothers and Uchiha Madara to fight, so essentially he is not that afraid of Habara.
But when he was really being watched by Hahara, he still had a creepy feeling in his heart, because Hahara was a truly dangerous guy.
This kind of danger is really not just something to talk about casually. In his eyes, a living person has gradually reached a level comparable to a legend. How can this not make people feel fear and fear in their hearts?
Moreover, the information Hahara gave him this time was extremely dangerous. He really didn't expect that Hahara actually planned to play such a big game!
In other words, he really didn't expect that after three years of silence, Hahara's appetite would become so big and so unbelievable.
"Doing it in Konoha? It's really unexpected. No matter who does it, I'm afraid they will face Konoha's crazy revenge and counterattack.
Are there really such gamblers willing to take such great risks to do such a thing?"
Orochimaru licked his tongue lightly. He was actually not optimistic about Habara's plan. At least he didn't think that such a madman really existed in the world.
Of course, in his opinion, Hahara was an even bigger lunatic, someone who wanted to ignite a war in his village, and even wanted the Akatsuki organization to join him.
If this is not a bigger lunatic, who is this?
However, Orochimaru did not dare to blindly think that Hahara was a lunatic. After all, this guy definitely had his own ideas and purposes for daring to do this.
What's more, it is absolutely impossible for him to do things without leaving any room for error. His willingness to take this risk probably shows one thing, that is, he is sure to control all these losses to the lowest level.
Even if a person from the ninja village took action in Konoha, they even included people from the Akatsuki organization!
"It seems that the Uchiha patriarch has made great progress again."
Orochimaru couldn't help but licked his tongue. He was really curious about Habara's progress. After all, if he dared to do something so big, it wouldn't be a small improvement no matter how you look at it.
"But now he hasn't made a complete decision, he just asked me to find some targets, and according to his own ideas, it seems that his targets are the guys in Sunagakure Village.
It seems that the thinking of the Luosha gambler from Sunagakure Village really left a big impression on him, but didn't this guy behave like a gambler in three games?
And Konoha seems to be a little worried about what he did, but this is understandable, after all, this idea is really crazy."
Although Habara didn't say much, how could a smart person like Orochimaru not guess what the other people in Konoha were thinking?
I'm afraid they are all worried and entangled now. Everyone can see their vested interests, but the risks are also too great.
Orochimaru was not in Konoha, so he could look at all this from a more macro perspective. Naturally, he immediately thought of the benefits of such a thing to Konoha.
But the problem is that it's too risky and too dangerous. If you don't handle it carefully, Konoha will really suffer!
"Perhaps this is the gap between them and Uchiha Hahara. Of course, I also have a gap with this guy. At least I really don't dare to think like this."
Orochimaru licked his tongue gently, then he put down the document in his hand, and then he started to think with faint eyes.
His fingers unconsciously began to tap on the experimental table in front of him, and it took him a long time before he made a decision with a smile.
"Since you want to play, and you also want to hit me, how can I fail your wish?
Although I don’t know why you would like this barren land like Sunagakure Village, there is still a place like River Country next to Sunagakure Village.
If this is the case, then I will help you, I want to see how you are going to do it, and I am looking forward to your performance!"
Thinking of this, Orochimaru took out a pen and paper and started writing and drawing on a piece of paper.
If Han Yuan wants to play, then he will naturally accompany him. Even if he knows that Han Yuan has not made a decision yet, it is not a big deal.
Anyway, it's just preparation in advance. Prepare all the work that needs to be done, and then you can wait for the final event to happen.
As for him being prepared, but Hahara's side going back on his word, it's not a big deal.
He can make adjustments as needed, such as directly forcing Konoha to enter a state of war, or simply telling the people he has won over that things have changed.
As for how to choose when the time comes, that is completely decided by Orochimaru himself. What's wrong with him taking all the initiative?
Of course, this may also bring him unprecedented trouble and disaster, for example, if Hahara chooses to refuse and not implement the plan, but he takes action.
After all, Habara is not a vegetarian. If he really wants to do this, it will mean an all-out war between the Akatsuki organization and Konoha and Habara.
But all this is in his hands, in his one thought. He likes to take the initiative, so naturally he cannot give up such initiative easily!
"So, once someone has an idea, I have to do some processing."
Orochimaru's eyes exuded a cold light, and he seemed to have made a decision.
"If necessary, replace that guy so you don't have to worry about the reckless behavior of those gamblers.
It seems that the person with the best chance is Luo Sha from Hidden Sand Village..."
...
"It's so mysterious!"
Kakashi's eyes were focused, and although he felt deeply that the team he led was really good, at the moment he also knew what his most important thing was.
His hands suddenly joined together to form a seal, and a stream of chakra air visible to the naked eye exploded, dispersing much of the dense fog.
"Oh, you can even dispel the Kirigakure Jutsu, Kakashi, it seems I underestimate you!"
The cold voice came from the thick fog, as if it was right next to the ears, making people shiver uncontrollably.
No...it's not like it's next to my ears, it's really right next to my ears.
Naruto reacted to something in an instant, and quickly turned his head, seeing that the beheading sword was coming towards his head.
The child's eyes shrank slightly, but soon he snorted coldly, raised his hand and a kunai appeared in his hand, and he quickly walked back behind him.
The actual murderous intent had little effect on him, after all, he was not a fledgling.
He had already learned how to deal with all this in previous missions, so it was naturally impossible for him to just go blank in his mind when facing an attack.
when!
The sound of gold and iron clashing was heard, and at the critical moment, the kunai in his hand firmly withstood the opponent's sword.
"Not bad, kid."
Zabuza looked a little surprised that this brat could still respond to such a situation. This was not something ordinary people could do.
But before he could finish his sentence, a kunai was already aimed at his wrist, and he immediately turned his body quickly to the side.
Then soon his face darkened, because the kunai actually flipped exquisitely and aimed at his wrist again.
He could only turn his hand violently, but the decapitating sword in his hand suddenly slipped due to his movement and quickly went to the side.
The decapitating sword hit the ground immediately with its powerful inertia, causing mud and gravel to fly with a loud bang. However, the three imps had already taken advantage of this moment to escape.
"These brats..."
Zabuza cursed secretly, but the next moment he suddenly found that a kid had quietly arrived in front of him.
The scarlet Sharingan turned, and the kunai in the kid's hand stabbed Zabuza in the throat.
No ninjutsu is used, and there are no fancy tricks, only the most straightforward speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness.
Such precise movements made Jiraiya's face look a little ugly. He didn't expect this kid to have such an ability.
But he will not be captured without mercy, he is the elite ninja of Kirigakure Village.
If he had died at the hands of an Uchiha brat at this level, he would have died a thousand times during the mission back then.
"Oh!"
The beheading sword slashed upwards in an instant. The broad blade seemed to have no weight, and it was so fast that it even made people feel weird.
when!
The sound of weapons clashing came again, and in the thick fog, two figures quickly intertwined with each other. Apart from the sound of clashing, it seemed that their shadows could not be seen at all.
"Is this...a battle between ninjas? It's so terrifying."
Dazna couldn't help but murmured as he looked at everything in front of him. He seemed to be extremely frightened.
Even a kid had such power. He suddenly thought that he had deceived them before, and he couldn't help but tremble all over.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Naruto seemed to notice Tazuna's nervousness, and he couldn't help but comfort him in a low voice.
"Although that guy Zuosuke is unreliable, he is still very strong.
And Kakashi-sensei hasn’t even taken action yet, so a guy like this won’t cause any trouble to us.”
"Hey, what do you mean Zuozhu is unreliable? You are the most unreliable."
Xianglin felt a little unhappy when she heard Naruto's words. She whispered to the side, and she knew Naruto very well, so she spoke without giving Naruto a chance to speak.
"Okay, stop talking about these useless things and concentrate on watching the battle. Kakashi-sensei may be about to take action."
After being choked by Xiang Lin like this, Naruto obviously felt like he was holding back a breath and couldn't let it out, but in the end he calmed down.
And in the thick fog, the battle between Sasuke and Zabuza became more and more intense.
Although he is no match for Zabuza in terms of physical fitness, chakra quality, etc., he has an ability that is like a plug-in.
That is his Sanmagatama Sharingan. With these eyes, even if he is not even slightly different from Zabuza in terms of physical fitness and other aspects.
But at least now he can still fight Zabuza head-on. At least now he can rely on these eyes to fight Zabuza or even suppress Zabuza!
"Although you are very powerful, fighting Taijutsu in front of the Sharingan is not a wise choice!"
Zuosuke resisted Zabuza's decapitating sword with one hand and said indifferently, but he himself also knew that he would not be able to resist for long.
Therefore, he had to find a way to end the battle as quickly as possible. However, Zabuza was not a winner. It was difficult for him to find an opportunity to use Chidori.
"Kid, although I admit that you are indeed very good, you are still a bit immature!"
Zabuza's face turned darker when he heard Zuosuke's words. How could he bear it when a brat said such words to his face?
What's more, he now realized that he seemed to have knocked down the steel plate this time.
Because I had so much trouble dealing with an Uchiha brat, no one else took action!
"How come the Uchiha family is full of monsters? Is it true that Uchiha Hahara, who claims to be able to destroy a ninja village by himself, is true?"
After all, Zabuza is from Kirigakure Village, and the shinobi of Kirigakure Village are naturally hostile to Konoha and even Uchiha.
After all, their older generation had been driven into the sea physically by Uchiha Madara, so they naturally would not easily believe some news about Konoha.
But now, a young Uchiha posed such a threat to him, which forced him to consider some issues.
"It's just that no matter how strong he is, it's Uchiha Hahara, not you, a brat!"
Zabuza felt angry in his heart, and then he swung the sword forcefully.
When Sasuke saw this, he immediately jumped up. His figure spun in mid-air, dodging Zabuza's sword by just a hair.
Then his kunai brought a cold light across the opponent's throat, and blood immediately overflowed, and Zabuza's twin boys began to lose control.
"call!"
Zuosuke let out a breath and landed on the ground, and the next second behind him who had just landed, Zabuza's figure appeared strangely.
The beheading sword was swung down without hesitation, as if it had been lying in wait here, and the original corpse turned into water with a bang.
With one slash, Zuosuke's body was immediately split into two, and Zabuza's cold voice sounded.
"Thank you for your advice, but from the beginning, I had no intention of fighting with you in Taijutsu."
"Oh……"
There was no trace of panic on Zuosuke's face, which was divided into two parts. He looked like he was smiling. The next moment, his body suddenly turned into water.
"Water body?"
Zabuza was shocked, and felt a sudden pain in his back, as a kunai had been stabbed into him.
"Idiot, don't you know I have the Sharingan?"
Zuosuke's cold voice sounded behind him, but Zabuza seemed quite calm at this moment.
Bang!
The next second, his body turned into water again, and a strong wind suddenly sounded behind Zuosuke, whistling and slashing straight towards him.
The sharp beheading knife directly passed through Zuosuke's body, and Zuosuke was shattered instantly. This time, instead of turning into water, he turned into two pieces of wood.
Compared to the Water Body Technique, as a ninja of Konoha, the Substitution Technique is naturally more comfortable.
"Of course I know you can see it. After all, people have to be careful with such eyes, but..."
Zabuza's voice came from far away, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly at this moment.
"Your combat experience is obviously far from enough, but in any case you are a ninja recognized by me!"
Zuosuke's figure immediately returned to the water, and Zabuza suddenly formed a seal quickly. The lake water surged crazily, forming a circular cell in an instant.
"Water escape, water prison technique!"
The powerful chakra made the water in the water prison heavier and heavier, and Zuosuke's expression changed. He knew that he would be in trouble if he was trapped now.
"Give up your resistance, although you are very good, but...",
"What are you proud of?"
At this moment, Zuosuke suddenly raised his head and looked at Zabuza strangely. His face then looked very unhappy but also full of teasing.
"Do you think defeating me means winning?"
"Kid, you..."
Zabuza opened his mouth to say something else, but Zuosuke obviously didn't intend to give him this chance.
"I'm just a genin. Fighting with you is my own initiative. I also want to test my ability.
Now I know that there is still a gap between my physical fitness and the use of skills compared to a jounin like you, but it is enough for me.
Although I am also a little disappointed with my situation, I am constantly making progress, and how much more progress can you make?
Okay, Kakashi-sensei, are you still going to watch me being drowned in water by this guy?"
"I thought you wanted to solve this problem yourself. See if you're not stupid."
Kakashi also smiled and spoke at this moment, the kunai in his hand rotated slightly, and the next moment he threw it fiercely towards Zabuza.
Zabuza's expression changed slightly, but he did not choose to move, because his strength allowed him to see clearly that the two kunai were completely missed!
"Why is it impossible for Kakashi's strength to be like this? Even if he doesn't have the Sharingan, he must be cheating when he does this!"
Zabuza was on guard, he looked extra cautious, but the next moment a painful expression appeared on his face!
He didn't understand what was going on at all, and he felt a sharp pain in his back.
And at this moment, the Uchiha kid who was originally locked in the water prison disappeared without a trace!
Almost suddenly, Zabuza was surprised to find that Kakashi seemed to be standing on the same spot, but there was an extra person in his hands.
Isn't this the kid? What happened?
Zabuza suddenly found that he was a little dizzy, and his consciousness became more and more blurry. He almost subconsciously reached out and touched the back of his neck.
Soon he found that his hand was a little wet. When he took it back and looked at it carefully, he realized that his hand was full of blood!
What exactly is going on and why is this happening?
Zabuza's body suddenly fell to his knees above the water, and his breathing began to become heavier.
However, at the next moment, several kunai flew out, immobilizing his limbs, and blood slowly overflowed.
Kakashi stood there and shook his head slightly, then he whispered.
"Do you know why I let Zuosuke fight with you alone? It's because I can ensure that as long as he is in danger, I can save him in an instant.
I know you seem to be confused as to why something like this happened. In fact, the reason is very simple. Why don't you think about who my teacher is?"
Kakashi's teacher?
Although Zabuza's consciousness was already a little weak, he soon seemed to remember something.
He had already recalled a terrifying existence in his mind, a person who single-handedly prevented Yanyin Village from attacking again.
The Fourth Hokage of Konoha, the golden shining Namikaze Minato!
"Flying...Flying Thunder God Technique?"
Zabuza spoke with some difficulty. Although he was asking, he was 100% sure in his heart that it was this technique!
"That's right, it's the Flying Thunder God's Technique."
Kakashi raised his kunai and chuckled.
"From the moment you decided to take action with us, your fate has been determined. I gave you a chance, but you just didn't cherish it."
"So that's it? With the Flying Thunder God Jutsu, it seems that not only did you not become weaker after losing your Sharingan, you actually became stronger."
Zabuza smiled bitterly and stopped talking, as if he had resigned himself to his fate.
"Go with peace of mind. If there is an afterlife, then be smart."
As he spoke, Kakashi raised his kunai and was about to shoot it out, but at this moment a cold light suddenly appeared, and several steel needles penetrated Zabuza's neck beyond everyone's expectation.
Blood spurted out, and Zabuza's body immediately fell to the ground, losing all breath.
"Who!" Kakashi shouted, looking in the direction of the attack.
There, a not-so-tall figure appeared, wearing a white patterned mask on his face with the unique symbol of Kirigakure Village.
"Thank you very much for forcing Zabuza into a desperate situation. I have been looking for opportunities to kill him, so that I can return to the village and recover."
The newly appeared ninja bowed slightly, his tone was dull, and he couldn't tell whether he was male or female.
Kakashi's eyes were faint, and he said seriously: "Is he the ANBU of Kirigakure Village?"
Seeing this, Xiang Rin wanted to speak, as a reminder that this guy was Zabuza's teammate.
But suddenly she thought of something and immediately shut up. At the same time, she held Zuosuke and Naruto together to prevent them from talking.
Sasuke and Naruto did feel the same, but with Kaoru's obstruction, they really didn't think to speak.
The two of them absolutely believe in Xiang Rin and Kakashi. It's up to them to handle it now.
.......
"We will go to the bridge tomorrow to check the situation. If possible, I hope Mr. Dazner can start construction as soon as possible."
At Tatsuna's home, Kakashi said to Tatsuna. At this time, they had arrived in the country of Waves.
At this time, they had arrived at the Country of Waves. After being intercepted and killed by Zabuza and fighting with him, they were finally ended by an ANBU from Kirigakure Village who suddenly appeared.
Of course, this was the explanation between Kakashi, the others, and Tazuna. As for other things, they couldn't go into detail with Tazuna.
"Why are you in such a hurry? You know, we just arrived here today, so we should rest for at least two days."
Dazna had changed into another set of clothes at this time. Hearing this, he was a little nervous and asked strangely.
Kakashi pinched his chin and then spoke slowly.
"Our village has its own issues, and of course I have my own issues too.
Therefore, the task should not be delayed too long. No matter what, it is always good to build the bridge as soon as possible."
"You are thinking about your own house."
The three Narutos on the side heard Kakashi's words and immediately complained involuntarily.
It's just that they won't try to dismantle Kakashi right now. They have nothing to say about this kind of thing, not to mention they are waiting for Kakashi to give further explanation.
"Is that so, okay..."
Tazuna seemed a little embarrassed, but in the end he agreed to the matter because he was a little afraid of Kakashi and the others.
"Then I won't disturb everyone's rest. I'm going out first."
Tatsuna quickly left the room, while Naruto, Sasuke and Kaoru quickly came to Kakashi's side.
Obviously they wanted to wait for Kakashi to give further explanation. After all, letting Zabuza go like this seemed a bit inappropriate.
And they also need to understand their next tasks so that they can be more prepared.
"Okay, I know you are curious, but you don't have to worry, I will definitely tell you about this."
Kakashi spread his hands and then said seriously.
"That ANBU brat was fake. In fact, I knew from the beginning that Xiang Rin gave me information. How could I forget it?
But now that Zabuza can't die, it's best to take action while this guy is building that bridge, and we can also get the contact between him and Kado.
In this case, we can have legitimate reasons to take action against Kado and others. After all, if a businessman does such a thing, it is natural for Konoha to punish him."
Konoha is really not an ordinary village in the ninja world. To say that it has returned to the time of the First Hokage may still be a long way off.
But at least now, there are really not many villages in the entire ninja world that dare to trouble Konoha, and Konoha must also carefully consider what they want to do.
Guys like Kado hire rebel ninjas to attack Konoha's mission ninjas, so it's natural for Konoha to take some revenge.
The most important thing is to have enough evidence. As long as there is evidence, wouldn't it be reasonable for Konoha to kill this businessman who harmed the country of waves?
Similarly, the Kingdom of Waves is now unmanaged and has fallen into the hands of a businessman.
So isn't it reasonable for Konoha to kill this businessman and then manage the country of Waves?
"So we still have to fight that guy, but they probably won't do anything tomorrow. Kakashi-sensei has done quite a lot of damage to him."
Zuosuke touched his chin and thought seriously for a moment before speaking.
"I think I understand. Kakashi-sensei, you want them to find more people and act unbelievably uncontrollable, right?"
Only if they are difficult to control, can we clean them up and get a good reputation?"
"Also, we started construction in the past few days, in fact, to show them, and we also took the opportunity to investigate their situation?"
Naruto also thought of something at this moment, and he asked curiously.
"Yes, and we also need to protect the residents of this place."
Kakashi said seriously.
"Although we want to solve the trouble, we must also be careful of their eagerness to jump over the wall. Although they attack people in the village, public opinion in all aspects will be good for us.
But using other people's blood to achieve our ideas and goals is something I can't do, and I'm afraid no one else in the village can do it either.
therefore....."
"Yoshi, don't worry, Kakashi-sensei!"
Naruto raised his fist and said loudly, he looked very excited.
"I will definitely protect them and never let them have any problems!"
"idiot....."
Zuosuke and Xianglin looked at Naruto like this, and they couldn't help but hold their foreheads with one hand.
However, they also agreed with Kakashi and Naruto's words that they would not use the blood of these people to complete their mission.
These people must be protected!
...
"It seems you are quite capable."
In Kabuto Yakushi's room, Habara could not help but smile as he looked at the documents in his hands, while Kabuto Yakushi lowered his head and did not dare to look at Habara at all.
A few days ago, he delivered information to Orochimaru as requested by Habara, and today Orochimaru's information was also delivered back.
He didn't dare to be careless in the slightest, and he didn't dare to deliberately delay or conceal it. He informed Hahara as soon as Orochimaru's message came back.
He has been in Konoha all year round, so he naturally knows how terrifying Habara is, and how powerful Habara's deterrent force is to the entire Konoha and even the ninja world.
If you dare to play tricks with such a person, he will definitely have a heart-to-heart chat with you in a physical sense.
Now it seems that Habara is very satisfied with Lord Orochimaru's reply, but if he is satisfied, it means that Konoha may be in some chaos next.
But compared with the chaos of the ninja world in the future, these chaos are really not worth mentioning!
After all, Kabuto Yakushi knew some of the contents of the letter, and he could guess what Orochimaru's reply was.
But just knowing these things, he started to feel a little nervous now.
"You seem to be afraid of me?"
Suddenly, Habara spoke again, and his voice reached Yakushi Kabuto's ears, causing Yakushi Kabuto to tremble slightly.
"No, how can Master Hahara make people afraid?"
Kabuto Yakushi laughed dryly, raised his head and forced himself to speak calmly.
"Actually, you should be afraid. After all, you know something you don't dare to know."
Habara sighed faintly, his words immediately made Kabuto Yakushi's face freeze, and a feeling of fear began to spread in Kabuto's heart.
"Okay, I won't joke with you anymore."
Seeing Kabuto like this, Habara couldn't help but smile and shook his head. He patted Kabuto's shoulder lightly, and then said in a serious voice.
"You are still valuable, and I will be relatively tolerant towards people who are valuable.
It’s just that you have to exert greater value so that you can ensure that you live longer, do you understand?”
