Volume 1, Chapter 442: Karma and Reincarnation, Suffering from One's Own Fate

That’s all I have to say.

Chiyo stopped talking.

Who to send to the Mist Village and how to contact Yagura depends on Konoha's choice.

She was able to give these suggestions with the idea of ​​helping if she could, so that the war could end as soon as possible and fewer elite soldiers of the Sand Village would die on the battlefield.

The Sand Village does not have the wealth of Konoha, so it is better to retain as much as possible.

"We will consider your suggestions, and please arrange your people as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble."

The people from the Sand Village cannot be allowed to stay in the camp for too long, they need to be sent out as soon as possible.

As for contacting Yagura, it needs to be reported to the village and the decision will be made by the village.

After some consideration, Orochimaru and Jiraiya both tacitly chose to pass the buck, throwing this hot potato to the Third Hokage and Tsunade, letting them worry about it.

There are already enough messes on the battlefield, and they really don't have the energy to deal with these.

Jiraiya simply didn't want to take the blame, and Orochimaru was very busy, so passing the buck became the best option.

Orochimaru summoned a white snake and handed the scroll to him. The white snake swallowed it in one gulp and disappeared into the headquarters.

In Konoha, when Chizuki was thinking about how to entertain Danzo, a white snake crawled into the yard, came to his feet, and vomited out the scroll in its stomach.

Good job!!

Qianyue exclaimed, "What a good guy."

Is Orochimaru using him as a transporting tool?

This is not the way to take advantage of others.

Looking at the scroll covered with slime, Qianyue couldn't help but complain:

"Can't we let Ninja Hawk bring this guy Orochimaru here? He's so sticky that anyone who touches him will feel uncomfortable."

The scroll sent back by Orochimaru?

Danzo, whose condition was getting worse, pricked up his ears.

Qianyue ignored him.

He picked up the scroll on the ground and took a look. It was an encrypted scroll. He threw it to Ye Cang decisively:

"Clean it up and send it to Tsunade."

“........”

After catching the scroll, Ye Cang wanted to say: I don’t like this sticky stuff either.

Unfortunately, she had no choice but to clean up the scroll and head to the Hokage's office building with it.

Although the Third Hokage returned, he wanted to train Tsunade and placed Tsunade's office in the Hokage's office.

If you want to find Tsunade, just go to the Hokage's office.

Everyone in the Hokage's office knew that Ye Cang was Qianyue's man. Even though he was still under surveillance, no one stepped forward to cause trouble, allowing Ye Cang to arrive outside the Hokage's office smoothly.

Knocking on the door, Ye Cang waited for a response from inside.

"Come in!"

The voice of the Third Hokage came out.

Ye Cang opened the door and walked into the Hokage's office, walking towards Tsunade who was lying on the table.

The Third Hokage, who was about to speak, was stunned for a moment, then realized, this is Ye Cang from the Sand Village?

"Lady Tsunade, Lady Chizuki asked me to deliver this."

"Thank you for your hard work. Go back now."

Tsunade took the scroll and Ye Cang left after saluting Tsunade and the Third Hokage.

"It's the encrypted scroll of the battlefield. It seems Orochimaru used Chizuki as a transit station."

Tsunade explained.

However, why couldn't the Intelligence Department deliver the scroll? Orochimaru chose to let Qianyue be the transit station. He really knows how to save trouble.

Using a unique code to unlock the seal, Tsunade opened the scroll and began to read it. The Third Hokage didn't care and smoked his pipe calmly.

"Old man, can't you smoke less?"

“Cough cough cough!!!”

What the Third Hokage didn't expect was that Tsunade would spray him in the face because of smoking.

What's wrong with me smoking?

I am an old man, and this is my only hobby. I...

He wanted to complain a few words, but under Tsunade's extremely unfriendly gaze, the Third Hokage decisively chose to shut up.

He knew very well that he could not provoke Tsunade at this time, otherwise if Tsunade got angry, he would be the one in trouble.

Even if he won't get beaten, the things in the office will always be damaged. The village's finances are tight now, so it's better to save as much as possible. The office supplies in the Hokage's office are all top-quality goods, so it's a pity if they break down.

"What did Orochimaru say?"

The Third Hokage quickly changed the subject, trying to divert Tsunade's attention.

"See for yourself."

Tsunade didn't know how to explain it, so she simply threw the scroll to the Third Hokage, walked to the window and stood there to breathe some fresh air.

“.......”

Okay, just pretend I didn’t say anything. Can I just look at it myself, old man?

Opening the scroll and placing it on the table, the Third Hokage looked closely at its contents.

"this......."

A few seconds later, the Third Hokage stood up with a look of shock on his face: "Tsunade, do you think it's possible?"

"What do you think?"

Tsunade crossed her arms over her chest and frowned:

"The Third Mizukage was originally the bodyguard of the First Mizukage, and he also participated in the meeting of the First Five Kage. From this, we can infer his specific age. For a man of this age, it would be a blessing to be able to lie still and not die, let alone jump around."

Don’t be fooled by the battles between the strong men in the Naruto world, with each scene being more exaggerated than the last. Ninjas are famous for their high offense and low defense. No matter how strong you are, you will still die if a kunai pierces your heart and cuts your throat.

The most important thing is that powerful strength cannot prolong the lifespan of people in the Naruto world. On the contrary, the lifespan of a ninja will be shortened due to the pressure of long-term training and fighting, as well as the damage caused by injuries and various hidden injuries.

During the most exaggerated Warring States period, a ninja who could live to the age of thirty was considered to have a long life.

In the era of the Five Great Ninja Villages, the living environment of the ninjas has improved, but it is still difficult to find a few long-lived ninjas.

The Third Mizukage is already a true antique.

"It seems that the Third Mizukage does have some problems."

The Third Hokage, who is gradually getting old and feels that his physical strength is declining day by day, knows very well that even strong strength cannot resist the aging of the body.

It is a miracle that the Third Mizukage is still alive.

It’s hard to imagine that at his age, he can still be jumping around on the battlefield, getting younger and younger.

"It seems that we need to investigate. It would be right to contact the people of the Mist Village."

Tsunade frowned and said:

"Contacting the people of the Mist Village may not necessarily stop the war, but old man, you are right. We do need to send people to the Mist Village to contact Yagura, and it would be best if we could meet the Master."

"Why are you looking at me?"

Seeing the Third Hokage staring at her, Tsunade realized something was wrong.

“Ahem.”

The Third Hokage coughed: "I think we can let Minato and......"

"I can't be sure if he's willing to go."

Tsunade decisively rejected the Third Hokage. Based on her understanding of Chiyue, there was a high possibility that Chiyue would refuse such a mission.

First, he was afraid of trouble, and second, he wanted to rest.

Since the outbreak of the war, Qianyue has been busy on both battlefields. It is reasonable that she should get a relatively long rest period.

Then there is the issue of the Third Hokage.

It would be fine if she took the initiative, but if it was the Third Hokage who took the initiative, I guess even if Qianyue was willing to go, she would not want to go anymore.

Whoever wants to go can go, don’t come to me.

“.......”

The Third Hokage was paralyzed on the spot.

The bitter fruits that were sown in the past are now reaping the fruits.

Chitsuki is like this, and Hatake Sakumo is still like this.

But they are the two most suitable people to carry out this task.

Tsunade didn't care whether the Third Hokage felt aggrieved or not:

"Chizuki and Senpai are currently resting, so I think we should let Orochimaru and Jiraiya go."

Since it’s the suggestion made by you two, then let you two go ahead with it.

"I'll think about it, old man."

The Third Hokage gritted his teeth and did not make the decision on the spot.

Then you think about it slowly.

Since there was nothing to do, Tsunade simply left, giving the Third Hokage some quiet space to calm down.

It just so happened that she needed to go talk to Qianyue and see if Danzo was honest.
