Konoha's Frozen Vortex

Chapter 135 The Pursuit Beyond Ninjas
"I suppose that's why you recommended him?"

Xue Hui raised his eyebrows.

"That's right, Shikanosuke is not interested in becoming a ninja at all. I forced him to cultivate his current strength. What he is really interested in is strategy, which is different from combat tactics. I It refers to the wisdom at a large level, such as villages and countries.”

"Every time he talks about related content, he seems to be a different person. And don't underestimate him. Although I can't make comments at my level, Nara Patriarch seems to have extra respect for Shikanosuke focus on."

Taking the wind to embrace the helpless friend, proudly introduced.

This picture of extreme contrast between fat and thin, one cold and one hot, one outside and one inside made Xue Hui laugh.

"I sort of get it."

Xue Hui nodded.

"But it's a pity, Qufeng, your good friend, doesn't meet my requirements."

Xue Hui shook his head, and poured a basin of cold water on the excited Fehfeng.

"Huh? Why?"

Take Feng was taken aback for a moment, it was about a friend, he asked hastily.

"As you said, Shikanosuke can be favored by the Nara patriarch, so he is indeed superior in resourcefulness. But I haven't finished talking just now, I need more than this."

"You have also seen that I have been here for more than a month to negotiate with Konoha. The reason is that in the current Uzumaki country, there is no one who is suitable to represent the Uzumaki country to negotiate with foreign countries."

"The other candidates are too old for the right experience, and I can't rest assured if they meet the physical conditions, so I wonder if it is possible to hire a qualified person to go to the country of Uzumaki to be responsible for external affairs other than Konoha. Communication, for Konoha communication, I will train other people."

"Based on the above reasons, I thought of the most suitable Nara clan in Konoha. But unfortunately, according to my observation, Shikanosuke's personality is not enough for such a duty."

Xue Hui spread his hands, expressing regret.

"It turned out to be like this, eh, that would be a pity. Shikanosuke can only spend his life with me in Konoha in a dull way. I have been brilliant before anyway."

Felt sorry for his friend.

"No, I believe I can do it, please give me this chance, Uzushio Village Shadow."

Suddenly, to everyone's surprise, Nara Shikanosuke, who had been silent all this time, spoke.

And he said such surprising words, accompanied by his bowing gesture, which made Xue Hui stunned.

"I think you should have clearly understood the requests I just made, right?"

Xuehui looked at each other.

"Yes, I fully understand."

Nara Shikanosuke straightened up, changed his previous gloom, and said confidently.

"I am confident that I can meet these requirements of Uzumaki-sama, and I believe that there is no one in Konoha who is more suitable than me!"

"Oh?"

Looking at Shikanosuke Nara who looked like a completely changed person in front of him, Yukiki was aroused interest again.

"To be honest, looking at your current appearance, I am indeed a little surprised, and I have changed my opinion of you, but you know, this is far from enough to make me change my mind."

Xuehui decided to tell the truth.

"No problem, let me prove it to you now."

Nara Shikanosuke pulled the corner of his mouth a little stiffly and smiled, it seemed that he was going all out to win Xuehui's favor.

"Not long ago, the patriarch asked me to talk, and the topic was the Uchiha civil strife that caused the whole village to stir up trouble recently."

"Appreciate further details."

When Xue Hui heard this, he became interested and motioned for the other party to continue.

"The patriarch and I concluded that this is a game against Uchiha, the purpose is to control Uchiha, and the worst is to weaken the Uchiha clan."

"You mean it was done on purpose?"

Xuehui didn't express anything, and Akimichi Tokkaze on one side exclaimed first, not as calm as Orochimaru on the other side.

Of course, Orochimaru was both surprised and curious when he heard about the village level when he was a child, but he was even more curious about Nara Shikanosuke himself.

"That's right, it was man-made." Nara Shikanosuke said with certainty, "You can feel something is wrong in many details, that is, big clans like Uchiha and Senju don't care about these details, so they didn't respond in time. Find out!"

"Then who the hell wants to do that?"

Feng asked curiously.

Nara Shikanosuke turned to look at Yuki, and Yuki was still smiling when he was alluded to by the other party.

"Although we don't have relevant evidence, we can infer from the results in reverse. Whoever benefits from it in the end is the most likely."

"My conclusion is, Tokkaze, these senior brothers and sisters of yours jointly made a game for Uchiha."

Nara Shikanosuke's words were astonishing, not only Akimichi Tekkaze, but even Orochimaru opened his mouth wide, with an expression of disbelief.

"So I'm also among your suspects, right?"

On the contrary, Xue Hui didn't change at all, instead he was able to open his mouth to tease.

"I wasn't sure at first, but seeing your reaction now, I can be sure that you must have participated in it, and the purpose is to take away the Uchiha clan."

"But whether you planned it together with Hokage-sama, or whether you joined in the middle and wanted to fish in troubled waters to gain benefits, it is not clear from the current information. But what I know is that Uzumage, your methods are very powerful, maximizing the benefits of Uzumaki. The country's benefits in this matter."

What Nara Shikanosuke said was very polite, but there was no sense of politeness in his tone.

"Wonderful!"

Xue Hui applauded while the other two were still suffering from the impact of this fact.

"But there is one thing you said wrong. I didn't get the most benefits. Sun Zhan and Danzo are far more powerful than you think. But I believe your patriarch has already seen it. This is also an opportunity for you three clans , I don’t believe that the Nara patriarch’s vision will miss it.”

Xuehui corrected with 'good intentions'.

"You are right. The Patriarch is indeed using the protection of the rights of the small and medium-sized Konoha families in Konoha as an excuse to seize Hokage's wrongdoing against Uchiha and gain a lot of benefits, including the descendants of Hokage-sama. It is a promise that the ninja of Inokacho will be the guide of the jonin."

Nara Shikanosuke nodded.

"It can let you know so many things, it seems that your patriarch trusts you very much!"

Xuehui looked at Shikanosuke, who is now both wise and confident, and said with a sigh.

"The patriarch is just making the best use of everything."

Shikanosuke said modestly.

"Okay, your goal has been achieved. I take back what I said before, and I am willing to give you a chance. As long as you get my approval in the Vortex Kingdom, I will officially appoint you. If you are not competent, then you can only Let you go back to Konoha in despair, don't blame me for not making it clear to you when the time comes."

"But now there is still a problem here. Just like I asked Fengfeng at the beginning, I don't have any bargaining chips to negotiate with your Nara patriarch."

Xue Hui pinched his chin and said.
