Guard members who stay in Konoha

Chapter 267 150 Nine, Betrayal

For those facing the fear of war, the word peace has a natural attraction. As long as it is possible, they certainly cannot hope to encounter war. The people of the country of rain also have this kind of thinking. It has not completely disappeared, but now it has to be involved in the next war.

Fortunately, the people of the Land of Rain have recently received news that Konoha, the head of the Five Great Ninja Villages, has now gained an advantage on the battlefield, and in order to prevent the scale of the war from expanding, he intends to negotiate with other countries, and they want more support, I hope Sanshoyu Hanzo can make a sound.

Known as the "half-god", Sansho Hanzo has great influence in the ninja world. The people of the Land of Rain are deeply in awe and think that it is omnipotent-this can be seen in the past when it drove the army of a big country out of this country.

Therefore, when they heard the news, the people began to feel uneasy. Because of the threat of a big country, the closed measures that Sanshoyu Hanzo has adopted over the years, although very strict, can be understood by everyone. But just like people who have been suppressed for a long time will long for freedom, after a long time, the people of the country of rain began to want to get rid of this situation.

In the past, because the threat of a big country still existed, the people of the Land of Rain didn't dare to express their thoughts even though they had such thoughts, but it was different now, because someone told them that the war might end soon.

Although some people doubt whether Konoha Ninja Village, who was not so innocent in the Second Ninja World War, really had such a will, but they can't bear the desire, and the person who spread the news is famous for his benevolence and righteousness. The "Xiao" organization has more people who believe in it, and such a voice cannot be raised.

This kind of wind direction quickly made Yuyin Ninja Village pay attention to it. In fact, they had heard about it from the beginning. After all, Sanjiao Hanzo ordered Yuyin Ninja to strengthen civilian surveillance and management. After the number of people increased, they could no longer sit still.

The current situation of Yuyin Ninja Village benefits from the external threat of a big country and Hanzo's own strength and prestige, of which the former is very important.Once the oppression of the outside world is lost, even if Hanzo's prestige is not affected, his control over the Land of Rain will begin to decline.

This was something Hanzo didn't want to see. He had heard of the "Akatsuki" organization before, but at that time he didn't think it would be successful, so he just let his subordinates hunt it down routinely, and didn't take it to heart. inside.But now it seems that this organization is really hateful!

In the room located in the high tower in the center of the Ninja Village, Hanzo's confidants gathered here, and Hanzo sat cross-legged in the upper seat, half of his body was shrouded in shadow, and he looked faintly terrifying.

Yuyin Ninja Village started out with assassination techniques. Unlike the Five Great Ninja Villages, its environment is very closed. This is certainly suitable for its assassination style, but it also affects the atmosphere of the entire village.The faces of these high-ranking officials all appeared indifferent, not so much human beings as machines.

In such a local environment, it is very difficult for people to have a cheerful mood. If there were some signs of enthusiasm in the Amane Ninja Village in the past, but the high-level people headed by Hanzo gradually lost their belief in changing the world and began After being content with the status quo, such signs were immediately cut off.

"How much do you know about 'Akatsuki'?" Hanzo said slowly, his voice was a bit dull under the influence of the mask, but it also brought some psychological pressure to people.

However, the people present were all used to Hanzo's voice. As long as it didn't cause Hanzo's anger and fear for their lives, they wouldn't feel any psychological pressure. After all, they were Hanzo's confidants, and the relationship could be considered close.

"Rarely, this organization is very good at hiding itself. Even when it advertises to the civilians, it doesn't reveal too much personal information. According to the information we have collected, there are many answers to the identity of its leader. Some said it was a young man with red hair, and some said it was a girl with blue hair." The confidant in charge of intelligence collection replied.

"Hehe, without being trained by the orthodox ninja village, even our village's intelligence system can't get any decent information. Are those guys very powerful, or is our intelligence system too useless?"

Hanzo's words immediately made the respondent break out in cold sweat. There was a hint of accusation in this sentence, so it shouldn't be taken lightly.

However, Hanzo quickly said: "It seems that the leader of the other party is not an ordinary person. Although he is a stupid person, at least his ability is passable."

This means that Hanzo thinks that the leader of "Akatsuki" is very capable, not that the village's intelligence system is not good, which makes the respondent slightly relieved.

"Originally, the old man didn't intend to pay attention to 'Xiao'. It's their own business to insist on their stupid idea, but now they are spreading that kind of news to confuse the common people. As the leader of the Ninja Village in this country, the old man can't Just sit idly by."

In fact, the information collected by Amane Ninja Village proves that Konoha Ninja Village has indeed gained an advantage on the battlefield. It is said that Tsuchikage's son was also captured, so Iwain stopped marching, and Konoha began to fight with the other party. In other words, the statement of "Akatsuki" may not be false, and Konoha does have such an idea.

However, the idea of ​​"Akatsuki" is very naive in Hanzo's view. Although Konoha has indeed shown such a willingness now, who can guarantee that it will be so?How much do you know about Konoha?In the last war, Konoha's position still didn't let you understand that this village is by no means so innocent?
What if there are other plots behind Konoha?If you want to use this to make the Kingdom of Rain relax its vigilance, what should you do if you suddenly attack when you are negligent?At that time, "Xiao" was a sinner in the Kingdom of Rain!Have you guys considered this?
Of course, this is just a reason for Hanzo to comfort himself.Even if it was true, Hanzo would not say it.Because he wants to stabilize his own position, he must maintain the threat from the outside world, and make the nobles realize that without him Hanzo, the Kingdom of Rain may face the crisis of extinction at any time, and this fear is deeply embedded in their hearts In the bottom of my heart, that's what Hanzo wanted.

Hanzo's statement is recognized by his confidants. In the past, they still wanted to change the country of rain with ideal enthusiasm, but the reality gave them a hard blow.

Hanzo has indeed expelled the army of a great power from the country, creating a legendary record.However, what is the price behind this?Did he get anything?No, I got nothing, leaving only corpses all over the ground and the bloody Rain Country.

Hanzo once wanted to elevate the Land of Rain to the same status as the great powers, and when the national power became strong, he would overthrow all the five great powers and unify the continent.But the reality is that after the end of the Second Ninja World War, the Land of Rain is still so poor and weak. Although the big countries dare not oppress it casually, some vigilant and blockade measures have been implemented.

This also led to the fact that although the power of the Land of Rain returned to its full glory in the future, it was unable to make further progress, and the tragic war also made Hanzo clearly realize that his ideals are difficult to achieve. He has struggled so far, and all he has seen is death , and nothing else.

After realizing this point, Hanzo gradually lost his enthusiasm for changing the world, and the other high-level members of the Yuyin Ninja Village were the same, but they felt that it was not their fault, and this was the cold reality. Realistic ideals, to recognize the cruelty of reality.

But the current "Xiao" actually has a faint shadow of their past, but the method is more gentle, but it is precisely because of this that the shadow of the ideal of the past is particularly glaring to them who have now recognized the reality. Especially hateful!It is an existence that they cannot identify with!
"What Lord Hanzo said is that it's fine for them to be stupid. If they implicate the people in the country, can they afford this responsibility?" a confidant said.

Hanzo nodded, approving, and said, "You guys should give them a good warning next, let them stop such demagogic behavior, and also pay attention not to let ordinary people be deceived by them."

"What if they're not willing to hold back yet?" someone asked.

"Don't want to? Hmph!" Hanzo snorted coldly, "If they want to continue this demagogic behavior, then stop abducting the old man ruthlessly!"

The implication is that everyone present can understand it, that is to use violent means to suppress, which is also a matter of course, if the other party is sensible, that's all, if not...

"Master Hanzo, if Iwagakure and the others really back down because of the negotiation, what should we do?"

"They won't just agree. I believe that, not to mention Yan Yin, even Konoha, no one can fully agree to this matter." Hanzo said firmly.

"Oh? What does Master Hanzo mean?"

"Hehe, let's see, in a short while, there will definitely be someone from the higher-ups in their ninja village secretly sending someone over." Hanzo smiled coldly.

The people in "Akatsuki" didn't know the opinions of the upper management of the Ugakure Ninja Murakami regarding them. They always thought that Hanzo and the others would definitely be moved, and now they are also excited about the progress of the organization's career.

In view of the actions and propaganda measures these days, many ordinary people were moved, and more people joined the organization, and the scale of the organization suddenly increased.

And there is no need to worry about the funds. After learning that the war may be over soon, the businessmen are very happy, because once the borders are no longer closed, their business can start immediately. Out of the recognition of "Xiao", there are many Few merchants who had cooperated with it during the war injected funds into the organization, and entrusted them with future tasks.

Compared with the harsh Yuyin Ninja Village, what they trust is the benevolence and righteousness of "Akatsuki", which is what they can see from the tasks they entrusted during the war.

The rapid development of the organization made Yahiko very excited. He felt that his ideals had entered a new stage. Not only him, but everyone else was very happy, and even the enthusiasm for work was further stimulated.

Although Xiao Nan's logistics processing has also become more busy, she still stays in the stronghold after all, and she also shoulders the task of monitoring the bombs, and the two sides can still meet frequently.

"No matter what Konoha has done in the past, but seeing Jiraiya-sensei and you, I believe that there are indeed peaceful people in Konoha, because of this, I also believe that the ideal will definitely be realized one day. When that day comes, Teacher Jiraiya will definitely be happy." Xiao Nan said to Tan.

Dan smiled slightly, and he was also a little surprised by the rapid development of "Xiao" these days, but after thinking about it carefully, he also felt that it was not impossible, but there was also some worry behind it.

Because with the expansion of the scale of "Akatsuki", the possibility of arousing Hanzo's fear will increase, and it may start to act early.

"Don't be too happy, Miss Xiaonan, sometimes, there will be hidden dangers behind too smooth." Later reminded: "Is there any response from Yuyin Ninja Village?"

"No. However, I think there are more and more common people wishing for peace. When Lord Hanzo and the others hear these voices, they will definitely respond." Xiaonan said happily.

"is it?"

While talking, Xiaonan felt someone coming back, judging from the movement, it should be Nagato and other companions, and the other party came directly towards them.

Xiaonan was a little surprised, thinking that the other party should have some news to tell him, and nodded apologetically to Tan, because his colleagues in the organization thought that they could not tell him all the information, so it was impossible to talk about the organization's news in front of him.Tan also expressed his understanding of this, and this was not the first time he encountered it, so he automatically moved aside.

And Xiaonan walked forward for a while, and when Nagato and the others arrived, the moment she saw them, she couldn't help but exclaimed slightly: "You guys are——!"

Nagato and the others had blood on their bodies, and they looked a little embarrassed, as if they had experienced a battle.Xiaonan hurried forward to check, but fortunately there were no serious injuries, so he called the members of the organization who knew medical ninjutsu to come here, and then asked what happened.

"We were attacked by Ukakushi ninjas..." Nagato's face was very ugly, with a deep sense of incomprehension and disappointment, "They said we were spreading false information and bewitching the public, and they asked us to stop immediately , otherwise it wouldn’t be like this time.”

"What?" Xiao Nan was taken aback immediately, never expecting such news.She was telling her earlier that Hanzo-sama would understand them, but in the blink of an eye, she heard that Yuyin Ninja Village thought they were spreading false news and asked them to stop such behavior and attack them. This suddenly felt like a betrayal a feeling of.
