Chapter 577: Go ahead
“It seems that Iwagakure attaches great importance to these spies.” Jiraiya turned to look around and said.
At that time, because they were in a hurry to join the supporting troops for the ambush battle, they did not have time to interrogate Bai Jue, so they just sent two ninjas to take Bai Jue to a hidden location and imprison him.
However, what Jiraiya didn’t expect was that in just a few hours, the people of Iwagakure would be able to find Bai Zetsu and take him away.
It can almost be described as miraculous speed.
Just a few hours, normally there is no guarantee that something went wrong with the spy.
After all, being a spy is very risky, and it is impossible to communicate frequently several times a day.
As a result, Iwagakure not only knew that the spy was exposed, but even found and rescued him at an incredible speed, which really puzzled Jiraiya.
The time that Iwagakure can take action is really too short.
Before the ambush officially started, Iwagakure must not have known that the spy was exposed, otherwise the Iwagakure ninja troops would not have walked towards the trap set by Muyue.
But the efficiency of being able to successfully find people in just one ambush battle is a bit exaggerated.
"But yes, this thing is too powerful for use in war. Iwagakure is probably afraid that Konoha will also develop similar products." Jiraiya sighed.
Without Mu Yue's ability to sense malice, even if Jiraiya faced Bai Zetsu again when he knew Bai Zetsu's information, he would not have a good way to deal with Bai Zetsu's troubles.
The transformation technique that even the ninjas can't recognize is really a bummer.
"We can only wait and see if the village can work out a response plan after the intelligence report comes up." Namikaze Minato also had some worry in his eyes.
If no solution can be found, Mu Yue will probably have to wait to deal with Iwagakure's troops for a long time before Iwagakure's peace talks.
"I hope everything goes well." Mu Yue also said with a worried expression, although at the moment his heart was as calm as water.
Because Mu Yue had known about this for a long time, and his shadow clone was even involved.
Mu Yue doesn’t want Konoha to get White Zetsu.
For Mu Yue, it is actually a good thing for Konoha to know that Uchiha Madara is alive.
The reason why he doesn't want Konoha to get White Zetsu is because of White Zetsu itself.
Bai Jue seems to be just a weak intelligence tool, but in fact Bai Jue is a treasure.
Hashirama cells in Bai Zetsu's body are not all treasures in the world of Naruto.
And the Hashirama cells in Bai Zetsu's body are not ordinary Hashirama cells, they are Hashirama cells cultivated by Uchiha Madara using the outside demon.
If Konoha gets White Zetsu, with the power of Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru in Konoha, part of White Zetsu's body will definitely come into their hands.
If Orochimaru and Danzo Shimura come up with something by then, Mu Yue may not be able to control the situation by then.
However, although Mu Yue had the idea of taking action, the fainted Konoha ninja had nothing to do with Mu Yue.
Two Bai Jue disguised as Konoha ninjas struck before Mu Yueying's clone.
Although Mu Yue didn't want to see Konoha get Bai Zetsu, she would not let Bai Zetsu go. After Bai Zetsu knocked out the guarding ninja, he came out and killed all five Bai Zetsu and put them in the sealing scroll.
Column cells are indeed a good thing.
In the original work, Obito is just an ordinary kaleidoscope sharingan, and he can use the kaleidoscope ability casually with Hashirama cells without any side effects.
In the future, if Shisui and Obito open the Mangekyō Sharingan, and Mu Yue's imaginary Yang Escape practice does not solve the problem of the Mangekyō, then these White Techniques will come in handy.
…
Konoha Village.
Hokage Building, Hokage Office.
When receiving the information from Mu Yue, Sarutobi Hiruzen saw Konoha's defeat of two thousand Iwagakure ninja troops, and a surprised smile appeared on his face.
This result far exceeded his expectations. Hiruzen Sarutobi's original idea was that if the supporting troops could reverse the disadvantage and maintain a balance with Iwagakure, success would be considered a success.
When he saw the information related to White Zetsu, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression changed drastically. After reading the information, he immediately asked the ANBU at the door to convene a meeting with senior officials.
"This is the latest information from the front line. Let's take a look first." In the conference room, Hiruzen Sarutobi said.
After saying that, Hiruzen Sarutobi put the pipe into his mouth, took a deep breath, and then blew out the white smoke with a sad look on his face.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's appearance made the other three senior executives unable to help but think wildly.
"Is it possible that there was another big defeat in the Land of Grass? Well, Hiruzen will have no excuse not to use Orochimaru." Danzo Shimura thought as he picked up the information in front of him.
The defeat on the battlefield of Kusanagi was a bad thing for Konoha, but it was a good thing for Shimura Danzo.
Shimura Danzo was very excited when he learned that Jiraiya was defeated by Iwakakure and could only flee with his troops.
Because this is a big stain that will reduce Jiraiya's support rate among Konoha, and it is also an opportunity for Orochimaru.
When he saw the words 'Our army destroyed more than 1,600 enemies by breaking Iwagakure', Danzo Shimura had a question mark in his mind. After reading it carefully several times, he found that he was right, that he had won a great victory. .
Danzo Shimura frowned slightly. After the frontline troops won the battle, Sarutobi Hiruzen still showed that expression. Are you trying to trick him?
When he saw the information about those Iwagakure spies, Shimura Danzo finally understood Sarutobi Hiruzen's worries.
They did win the battle, but the strength shown by Iwagakure was worrying.
“There is actually this kind of transformation technique that can fool even sentient ninjas.” Mito Kadoyan showed a serious expression after reading the information.
Namikaze Minato can still see the war potential of White Zetsu. They and other senior leaders have also experienced various wars along the way. Of course, they can also see the power of White Zetsu's ability.
"It's really unexpected. No wonder the troops led by Jiraiya were defeated so completely." Hiruzen Sarutobi said, stroking his mustache.
After receiving the news that Hiromi Sarutobi had become a spy, Hiruzen Sarutobi spent a lot of effort conducting various investigations, but almost no useful information was found.
He thought it was because Hiromi Sarutobi was hiding it too well, but it turned out that the other party had no problem in the first place.
Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen looking for reasons for Jiraiya's defeat, Danzo Shimura opened his mouth to refute, but closed his mouth again.
Because at the meeting to choose the support commander, Danzo Shimura strongly recommended Orochimaru. According to the current situation, the commander can only be Mu Yue.
With Iwagakure having Bai Zetsu acting as a spy, anyone other than Mu Yue may not be able to defeat Iwagakure's troops.
“Hiruzen, you still have the foresight to let Muyue serve as the commander of the supporting troops. Otherwise, what is reported back will not only be a great victory, but also a great defeat.” Mito Kadoyan sighed.
If Mu Yue had not had special sensory abilities to uncover the spies and use them to formulate a counterattack plan, it would have been difficult for the Konoha ninja troops to withstand the attack, let alone win. The number of troops has been reduced by almost half, and there are still spies that cannot be found. It is almost a hell-level difficulty.
“This is also an unexpected surprise, but Mu Yue is indeed the most capable ninja in the new era.” Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a smile.
He did not expect Muyue to be able to achieve such a great victory. The reason why Sarutobi Hiruzen did not agree to mobilize Orochimaru was just because he was worried that Kumogakure would take the opportunity to cause trouble.
Shimura Danzo felt very unhappy when he saw Sarutobi Hiruzen like this.
Mu Yue is obviously a ninja at his core. He is an outstanding talent trained by Shimura Danzo. How come you owe it to Hiruzen Sarutobi?
Shimura Danzo had a strange feeling in his heart that the leeks he had worked so hard to plant had others secretly harvesting them at night.
“Since Iwagakure is defeated, why don’t we use war as a threat to ask Iwagakure to hand over the intelligence of those spies.” Koharu expressed his thoughts after going to bed.
“According to the current intelligence, those spies are most likely the product of some kind of human experiment. If we successfully crack the technology, our intelligence ninjas will be invincible in the future.”
Join if you can't beat them. Since the traditional intelligence ninja is out of date, update it too.
Shimura Danzo looked at Koharu who had gone to bed unexpectedly. He did not expect that the other person had the same idea as his.
Such evil technology must be left to Konoha for safekeeping!
"Yes, we should send out more ninja troops and take this opportunity to enter the Kingdom of Earth and take Iwagakure Village directly." Danzo Shimura agreed.
Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head, "It's too risky. If Kumogakure takes the opportunity to launch a large-scale attack, it will be very troublesome."
Although Kumogakure may not necessarily attack Konoha, and may take advantage of the situation to attack Iwagakure, Sarutobi Hiruzen doesn't want to gamble. The consequences of losing the bet are really huge.
“Hiruzhan, you will only make Konoha weak by looking forward and backward like this!
If Konoha makes every invading enemy pay a huge price, who would dare to go to war with Konoha? Danzo Shimura retorted unconvinced.
They killed more than a thousand Iwagakure ninjas this time, and they won such a big victory. A trip to the Land of Earth was also a great deterrent.
"You only think about the benefits. If Kumogakure and Kirigakure take advantage of the situation, can you deal with them?" Hiruzen Sarutobi knocked on the conference table and asked forcefully.
Didn't Hiruzen Sarutobi know that this was an opportunity to defeat Iwagakure in one go, but the risk was too great.
Since the founding of Konoha, the war has been isolated from Konoha. The most enemies can enter the Land of Fire is that there is absolutely no way to get close to Konoha.
Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't want to be the only Hokage to plunge Konoha into war, that would be too embarrassing.
"Konoha is really in danger, so I will naturally lead the troops to attack." Shimura Danzo still insisted on his idea.
"It's not a matter of not being able to go to the battlefield, but whether it's able to deal with the incoming enemies." Hiruzen Sarutobi emphasized.
Shimura Danzo is considered a capable ninja, but that's about it, no better than the Sannin or Mu Yue.
"Why do you think I can't deal with the incoming ninjas?" Danzo Shimura asked.
Anyway, Yunyin hasn't come to fight now, let's blow the cow out first.
"Since you are so confident, then you will be responsible for commanding Iwagakure, and first lead some ninjas to explore the information about Iwagakure Village." Sarutobi Hiruzen continued.
"Not now, I have many other matters to deal with." Danzo Shimura refused bluntly.
It's not that he didn't dare to do it for fear of death, but Danzo Shimura really had other things to be busy with.
He has been trying to figure out what Soyousuke's ninja inheritance is, and how to get the reincarnation eye.
"If you are willing to lead the team, then go. If you don't go, don't mention the attack on Iwagakure!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said calmly.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's tough stance made Koharu give up the plan he proposed. Her combat effectiveness was the worst among the four high-level officials, and she neglected training after becoming a high-level officer, making her strength even worse.
Shimura Danzo was still unconvinced, but he didn't refute it again. He couldn't really go for it.
If he accidentally falls in the Earth Kingdom, it will be a loss to the entire Konoha.
"There is no need to launch a large-scale attack on the Earth Country, but we do need to test Iwagakure's attitude." Mito Kadoro said, raising the frame of the mirror with his left hand.
In the two battles on the battlefield of the Land of Grass, Konoha and Iwagakure won one and lost one.
In general, Iwagakure's losses were much greater, but Konoha was not without its losses. Considering that other ninja villages were eyeing it, Mito Kadenen believed that it was necessary to act steadily.
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded. He also had the idea of sending ninjas to contact Iwagakure.
The current situation is too unfavorable for Konoha, and an alliance must be formed through peace talks with a great ninja village.
"In this case, recall Hanyu Mozuki to Konoha as soon as possible. Iwagakure's spies are so powerful. It would be terrible if they got into Konoha." Koharu said after going to bed.
If we want to attack Iwagakure, Mu Yue, who is currently the only one who can identify Iwagakure spies, must not be absent.
Now that he was sure not to attack Iwagakure, Xiaochun felt that he had to call Mu Yue back.
“Yes, it’s best to use an excuse to call the ninjas together and let Mu Yue conduct a major inspection.” Mito Kadoyan had the same worries.
Although their top management is not weak, if the Iwagakure spies disguise themselves as their family members to play dirty tricks, there is a possibility of overturning.
"I will contact the Grass Country troops after the meeting." Sarutobi Hiruzen agreed with this proposal.
In addition to eliminating possible spies in Konoha, Hiruzen Sarutobi also wanted Mu Yue to teach ninjutsu to other ninjas and include them in Konoha's ninjutsu library.
In principle, Konoha will not force any ninja to hand over his ninjutsu, unless it is an inhumane forbidden jutsu.
But this time the situation is special. To put it seriously, it is a matter of life and death for Konoha, so we can only deal with it in a special way.
Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that Mu Yue, who had the will of fire, should be able to understand, and he would not let Mu Yue Bai teach him.
After the various discussions on Iwagakure ended, the topic gradually turned to discussing merit and rewards.
No matter what, this is a victory worth celebrating.
Mu Yue, who was a counterattack plan, killed many enemies on the battlefield and injured his pillar power, there was no doubt that it was the first achievement, and the tap and the wave Feng Shuimen could only be ranked behind Muyue.
After the meeting, Shimura Danzo quickly found the root staff and asked them to contact the root members on the front line.
“Although the person was rescued, since there was a battle, there may be residual body tissue.” Danzo Shimura thought secretly.
If the technology of Iwagakure's spy transformation technique is developed, his root organization will be the strongest intelligence organization in the ninja world.
By then, Konoha will defeat all the ninja villages with the help of his root organization. Even Sarutobi Hiruzen will have no reason to restrict the roots anymore.
