Chapter 551： truce period

“Off-road, Danzo, stop it!”

"us."

“Let’s talk!”

When the Third Hokage appeared in Off-Road Sensation, it happened to be the time when Off-Road was preparing to capture Shimura Danzo and study Izanagi in depth. However, now that the Third Hokage has appeared in the perception, Cross Country's desire to capture Shimura Danzo has faded, because after all, the Third Hokage is the peak shadow-level powerhouse in the ninja world, and Cross Country wants to face the Third Hokage alone. The previous Shimura Danzo's combination did not have full confidence in winning.

Especially Danzo Shimura’s Izanagi is a BUG-level magical skill.

So, seeing the Third Hokage coming, Cross Country was worried about Shimura Danzo, and the Third Hokage worked together. Not to mention anything else, the Third Hokage cooperated with Shimura Danzo to capture Uzumaki Naruto, one of Gaara's members. All Cross Country had to do was to capture them for the safety of the two of them.

That's obviously an unfair fight, isn't it?

But when it comes to cross-country, I never expected that the Third Hokage clearly had the advantage, but actually had no intention of fighting at all. He glanced deeply at the Third Hokage, and then glanced at Shimura Danzo fearfully. When Cross Country saw the Third Hokage standing next to Shimura Danzo, still keeping a distance from Shimura Danzo, he understood why the Third Hokage He stopped cooperating with Danzo Shimura and fighting against himself.

“It turns out to be the Sharingan!”

"The Third Hokage knew that Shimura Danzo had just cast Izanagi, and he vaguely guessed that Shimura Danzo had other plans. Because of fear, he was unwilling to cooperate with Shimura Danzo. He wanted me, Shimura Danzo, and him to The Third Hokage maintains a triangular balance, restraining and restraining each other!"

"If Shimura Danzo has other thoughts in the future, then the Third Hokage will probably cooperate with me as soon as possible to solve the scourge of Shimura Danzo first. By the same token, if I have other thoughts, then The person that the Third Hokage and Danzo Shimura want to deal with immediately is probably me.”

“But that guy Danzo Shimura is so cruel!”

"I just killed so many ANBU of Konoha Village. If he had cast Izanagi in time, he would have saved their lives. But in the end, Danzo Shimura did not reveal that he could cast Izanagi for the sake of those ANBU of Konoha Village. Xanagi’s secret is probably not mine, if Shimura Danzo has no choice.”

“I’m afraid that the fact that he can use Izanagi will still remain a mystery!”

With a secret thought, Cross Country faced the Third Hokage and said, "Sir, the Third Hokage, I'm back."

"I know."

He sighed deeply. The anger he imagined did not appear in the eyes of the Third Hokage. Instead, he saw a hint of loneliness in the eyes of the Third Hokage.

Immediately, Cross Country heard the Third Hokage in front of him say: "Cross Country, I haven't seen you for a few days, and the violent aura in you is getting more and more serious. However, I can understand what is going on with the violent aura in you. Orochimaru and Tsunade both You told me that when you were fighting the Raikage, in order to severely damage the Jinchūriki of the Two-Tailed Mata Brigade, you sealed the Two-Tailed Mata Brigade in your own body, right?"

“As a Jinchuriki, it is inevitable to have a bit of violence.”

"But when going off-road, you must restrain that violent aura, otherwise you will be attacked by the tailed beast sooner or later!"

"Um."

Nodding towards the Third Hokage, Cross Country sneered secretly in his heart, thinking that the Third Hokage was trying to step down for himself.

Then, his eyes fell on Shimura Danzo again. The Third Hokage also took a deep breath and comforted Shimura Danzo: "Danzo, with the relationship between the two of us, I don't need to say anything more, right? It was your fault that you led the ANBU to attack Cross Country. It was our fault for failing to take good care of Minato's children. We often lose our minds under the influence of tailed beasts. It should be forgiveness, not guilt, understand?”

“Hiruzen, are you teaching me a lesson?”

Thinking that all the Anbu under his command had been wiped out, and that Izanagi's trump card had just been exposed, and no benefit had been gained, the Third Hokage arrived "just in time".

With anger in his eyes, Danzo Shimura didn't even use honorifics to communicate with the Third Hokage. It seemed that he was ready to "sell" the Third Hokage directly, and told Cross Country that the Third Hokage sent him here.

However, just when Shimura Danzo was about to "sell" the Third Hokage, he suddenly used Kagura's inner eye to sense cross-country, and keenly discovered that the Third Hokage made a gesture towards Shimura Danzo. After that gesture, Shimura Danzo took a deep breath, turned around and disappeared in front of Cross Country.

As for the Third Hokage?

After Danzo Shimura left, the Third Hokage sighed for a long time before continuing to face the cross-country road: "Okay, cross-country, I will not pursue the things you did before. Take Naruto and the child first and return to Nara. One family!"

“Oh, what an eventful year it has been!”

“Off-road, you may not know that the Raikage’s ambitions in the Cloud Ninja Village are getting more and more expanded.”

"Wait until I finish handling the matters regarding the Cloud Ninja Village, and then I'll give you, little Naruto, and the dead Minato an explanation, okay?"

"no problem."

Knowing what the Third Hokage meant, it was actually a truce.

followed by.

Taking Gaara and Uzumaki Naruto, Cross Country also slowly disappeared in front of the Third Hokage. However, just as Cross Country was preparing to return to the Nara clan, Orochimaru appeared next to Cross Country again.

"Did you see that? Old man Sarutobi is not as tough as before."

Sighed, Orochimaru was still concerned about the Third Hokage's lost ambition.

On the contrary, he was off-roading. After listening to Orochimaru's words, a faint smile appeared on his lips. Then, turning around to face the place where he had fought with Danzo Shimura, Cross Country left some words in front of Orochimaru, and took Gaara and Uzumaki Naruto to the Nara clan.

"Is the ambition gone? Orochimaru, I feel it is an illusion."

"The Third Hokage is really smart. He only used a small step to defeat Danzo and I. That is an amazing achievement. Moreover, if I guessed correctly, Orochimaru is in the hands of the Third Hokage. The power we have is definitely far beyond our imagination!”

"Let's see, after the Raikage's matter is resolved, the first target he will attack will definitely be me."

"When the time comes, Orochimaru, whether you come to help me or not depends on your own wishes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the off-road figure disappeared.

However, in the forest of death, looking at the figure leaving cross-country, Orochimaru's snake eyes lit up with an unpredictable light.

After a long silence, Orochimaru murmured:

“Showing weakness?”

"Okay, then I'll wait and see what the old man is going to do during the truce!"
