Chapter 197: The Rain Village temporarily retreats. The wind of Konoha starts from Danzo

An hour after Fujiwara Tetsuya returned to the camp!

With the support of Orochimaru, Jiraiya and others!

Sarutobi Hiruzen returned to the camp safely!

As for the battle with Hanzo!

Fujiwara Tetsuya also learned some inside information from Ape!

After Orochimaru led the support to arrive!

Hanzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen chose to end the battle tacitly!

If we have to make a comparison!

Between the two! It should be a draw!

Perhaps it is to maintain the dignity of the strongest Hokage!

The news of this battle! Only spread in a small range!

For most of the Konoha ninjas!

The winner of the battle! Without a doubt, it is their Hokage!

In the evening!

As the night falls!

Those of the Senju clan!

Still couldn't stand the toxin of the Salamander Inobushi! After struggling for several hours!

Completely closed their eyes!

The Konoha camp gradually had more suppressed crying sounds!

Not only Tsunade! The Senju clan members!

And those Konoha ninjas who also lost their clansmen! Companions!

War is cruel!

For a ninja!

Accept death! It is the path that a ninja must go through to grow from immaturity to maturity!

After all! Not everyone is a savior!

Some things! You can only get used to! To accept!

In the days after the war!

Neither Yugakure! nor Konoha!

Neither of them took the initiative to attack!

But! According to the intelligence sent back by the reconnaissance team!

In Yugakure Village! It seems that dozens of ninja teams have been separated!

They are frantically harvesting the wealth of the surrounding towns and villages!

For this phenomenon!

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Orochimaru both remained silent!

Before the temporary team composed of many medical ninjas headed by Tsunade has cracked Hanzo's poison!

Rashly fighting to the death with Yugakure Village!

It will only destroy more Konoha strongmen!

Obviously! The death of nearly forty Konoha jonin! Elite jonin!

Also made Sarutobi Hiruzen feel heartbroken!

Yugakure withdrew!

One morning! Directly set the camp that was painstakingly built on fire!

And on the way of retreat! Burned countless roads and bridges!

Burned dozens of surrounding villages completely!

Perhaps Hanzo did it on purpose!

Anyway! In the next half month!

Konoha's ninjas! And the officials sent by the Fire Country Daimyo!

Basically, they were dealing with refugees!

When Sarutobi Hiruzen and Orochimaru led the main force of Konoha! Chasing west again!

The main force of the Hidden Rain Village basically withdrew to the Rain Country!

Only within a twenty-mile range of the Fire Country!

More than ten small and medium-sized strongholds were set up!

Ninjas were sent to guard!

Obviously! Neither Hanzo! nor the Hidden Rain Village!

Neither of them extinguished their ambition to continue invading the Fire Country!

Once the Hidden Rain Village completely digested the wealth looted from the Fire Country!

Comeback! It's just a matter of time!

After the main force of Konoha arrived!

After many surveys! Konoha's newly built camp is located at the foot of a lonely mountain ten miles away from the central base of the Hidden Rain Village!

Except for the lonely mountain!

The surrounding terrain is flat!

If the Hidden Rain Village wants to raid!

The patrolling reconnaissance team!

They can also react in the first time!

"Orochimaru! In your opinion!"

"What should we do next!"

Konoha's temporary camp!

Since Sarutobi Hiruzen led the reinforcements to the western border!

It has been nearly a month!

For the shadow of a village!

Especially someone like Sarutobi Hiruzen who has a strong desire for control!

A month away from the center of power in the village!

Obviously long enough!

Therefore! After dealing with the camp!

Sarutobi Hiruzen also had the idea of ​​returning to Konoha!

"Teacher!"

"Tsunade hasn't developed an antidote to the toxin of the salamander yet!"

"Moreover! According to the information sent back by the reconnaissance team!"

"The strongholds built by the Hidden Rain Village are very steep and solid!"

"It will take a lot of time and cost to take down these strongholds!"

"Right now! The Hidden Rain Village is in a defensive posture! Most likely it is gathering strength to invade Konoha again!"

"My idea is! Before the large-scale operation of the Hidden Rain Village! Abandon the large-scale operations of the battalion or above!"

"Send a strong elite team! Give priority to eliminating the strongholds set up by the Hidden Rain Village in the Land of Fire!"

"This way! On the one hand, it can avoid irritating Hanzo's nerves! Launch another large-scale invasion!"

"Secondly! It can also buy time for Tsunade and the others to develop an antidote for the salamander toxin!"

"Thirdly! It is convenient for the village to reorganize! Replenish the manpower!"

"To cope with the pressure from the Land of Wind and the Land of Earth that may come!"

When Lord Orochimaru is in command!

Because of Leng Jun's special personality charm! And powerful strength!

It also makes OrochimaruGot support from many people!

Among them! In addition to civilian ninjas without any foundation!

There are also many elites from the ninja clan!

So! Under Sarutobi Hiruzen's inquiring gaze!

Many figures stood up instantly and echoed!

"Orochimaru! As a teacher! I am very pleased!"

"Your vision! Is not limited to the Hidden Rain Village!"

"That's right! The village really needs to strengthen the power against the Hidden Sand Village and the Hidden Rock Village!"

"Then! Things here! Do as you say!"

"When I return to the village! Another batch of supplies will be sent!"

Because of the loss of many elite ninjas under Orochimaru's command!

Before leaving!

Sarutobi Hiruzen still selected more than ten ninjas from the accompanying ninjas! Especially from the ninja clan that belonged to the Hokage!

Several elite ninjas were handed over to Orochimaru!

However! Compared to these!

What made Jiraiya feel relieved was!

Kato Duan left! Most of the ninjas accompanying Sarutobi Hiruzen returned to Konoha together!

It also freed him from the damage of 10,000 times the critical hit every day!

. . . . . .

Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen led the fourth team of the Anbu! And hundreds of Konoha elite ninjas on their way back to Konoha!

The wind direction of Konoha!

There were also more and more waves! The Root Base!

After Danzo returned to Konoha!

In addition to using his own connections!

Forcibly adding some manpower to the Root!

As for the Shimura clan!

After the incident in the Land of Grass!

Danzo had given up the idea of ​​drawing manpower from the Shimura clan!

Because it was too painful!

The group from the Land of Grass! Almost all of his clansmen who were drawn to the Anbu were involved!

It can be expected! The death of several jonin! Elite jonin! Dozens of chunins! Elite chunins!

Will make the Shimura clan! suffocate for quite a long time in the future!

In addition! Danzo has secretly dispatched those root members who are loyal to him!

Start to go to various places in the Land of Fire! Speed ​​up the search for orphans with ninja qualifications!

Due to funding issues!

Danzo's idea of ​​building an outer base! At least it cannot be realized in the short term!

He had to temporarily place the dozens of orphans collected by the root members!

In a cave dozens of miles away from Konoha Village!

Two root teams were dispatched!

Responsible for the lives of these orphans! Training!
