Chapter 861: Three Ninjas, Three Secrets

A somewhat rough big hand lifted the curtain, and then two figures walked into the tent one after another.

One of them had short white hedgehog-like hair, and the other had long black hair draped over his shoulders.

The state of the two did not look very good, and their expressions were somewhat different.

Tsunade looked over, her emerald eyes full of anger.

Needless to say, the two were the returning Jiraiya and Orochimaru.

The three Sannin met again, but the atmosphere between them seemed a bit subtle.

"You all go out."

Tsunade said to the other Konoha ninjas in the tent in a calm voice. A group of Konoha ninjas breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts one after another and hurriedly left here.

For no other reason, the momentum on Tsunade at this moment was like a volcano about to erupt. This kind of suppressed and deep anger was really too much pressure for them.

After all the Konoha ninjas left, only the three remained in the tent.

Orochimaru's expression was calm and composed. He walked to the shadow in the corner of the tent by himself, hugged his arms, closed his eyes, and did not say a word.

And Jiraiya on the side was not so relaxed. His gaze was downward, his hands were clenched and loosened from time to time, and his face was quite ugly.

"Tell me, what exactly is going on."

Tsunade looked at Jiraiya coldly, her emerald beautiful eyes full of disappointment.

From Jiraiya's expression, she could also think that his plan to surround and kill Hanzō of the Salamander must have failed.

"I..."

"I failed, which led to the death of Jonin Inuzuka."

"I am willing to take full responsibility for this result."

Jiraiya lowered his head and said in a struggling tone.

At this moment, he did not dare to raise his head to look at Tsunade's expression and eyes, because he knew that the disappointment revealed in those emerald beautiful eyes was enough to pierce his heart into thousands of holes.

Following Jiraiya's voice, there was silence in the tent for a long time.

Not only did the encirclement and suppression fail, but it also led to the loss of an elite Jonin.

Hearing this, the anger that Tsunade had accumulated for a long time could no longer be endured, and her eyes were almost about to spray fire.

Jiraiya's remarks made Tsunade's anger even worse.

"Take full responsibility? What are you taking responsibility with?"

"If a sentence could cover up everything, then could Jonin Inuzuka be resurrected?"

"Does your action like this deserve the village and Third Hokage-sensei?"

"Today was originally the best opportunity to strike at the effective strength of the Rain ninjas. Why didn't you act according to the plan!"

Tsunade said with hatred for not being able to make steel into steel, and her sharp words were like a sharp blade, hitting Jiraiya's heart directly.

Jiraiya's body trembled slightly, and he opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything. Because he knew that what Tsunade said was right; it was his insistence that killed Inuzuka and missed the opportunity for battle.

Facing Tsunade's angry scolding at this moment, he naturally had nothing to say.

"Hoo..."

Seeing Jiraiya remain silent, Tsunade did not continue to speak, but the disappointment in her eyes was still hard to hide.

This was not the end. Tsunade suddenly shifted her gaze, moved to Orochimaru on the side, and looked at Orochimaru fiercely.

Tsunade's eyes made Orochimaru feel inexplicable. He didn't provoke Tsunade, so what was this about?

However, seeing Tsunade so angry, he could only laugh hoarsely twice, and then made a sound like a snake spitting out a letter, and opened his mouth to smooth things over.

"Hehe, hiss..."

"There is no need to be too demanding. All in all, this battle was still a victory, wasn't it?"

Orochimaru's words did not make Tsunade's anger subside; instead, it made Tsunade's beautiful eyes narrow slightly, revealing a dangerous expression.

Orochimaru's words were certainly correct, but this was not a reason to explain their mistakes.

According to the plan, Orochimaru needed to take risks to ignite the explosive tags in the camp, which was correct, but as a descendant of Ryuchi Cave, Orochimaru was fully capable of escaping the camp before the explosive tags exploded.

And after completing the task of igniting the explosive tags, Orochimaru should have participated in the subsequent battle against the Rain ninjas to create a greater advantage for Konoha.

But the final result was that after Orochimaru ignited the explosive tags, he disappeared without a trace, not knowing what he was busy with.

And from the moment she saw Orochimaru just now, Tsunade keenly sensed Orochimaru's wrongness.

Orochimaru's aura was extremely withered, and it seemed that he had suffered very serious injuries.

So Tsunade concluded that Orochimaru must have something he didn't say, and there must be some secret on him.

Tsunade had no interest in knowing what Orochimaru's secret was; everyone had their own secrets.

Even on her, there were secrets that could not be made public, such as Mizunuki Ryosuke, and this was naturally very normal.

But at such a critical juncture, Orochimaru's actions could not help but have a suspicion of putting private interests above public ones. ===== CHAPTER 863 =====
