Chapter 626: The War of Annihilation (Part 3)
On the other side, Orochimaru, Jiraiya and Tsunade, led by Minato, rushed to the other side of the Water Country.
Looking at the humid air of the Land of Water, Orochimaru smiled grimly: "Well, the show is about to begin."
“Bang!”
"Immortal Reincarnation Technique!"
Orochimaru's evil voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth. At the call of this voice, thousands of coffins rose from the ground with a rumble!
"What the hell!" Jiraiya and Tsunade stared at the scene in shock. There were only a few hundred of them during the Third War, but now the number had doubled. Furthermore, their auras were generally stronger than before. Clearly, it wasn't just their numbers that had increased.
But what surprised them even more was that in the past two years, Orochimaru had done a lot of other research.
However, before they could be surprised, something even more surprising happened.
Two figures walked out of the coffin, one wearing red armor and the other wearing blue armor. Tsunade was stunned by the familiar figures, and then endless anger surged in her heart!
"Orochimaru!!!"
"Bang! Puff!"
Tsunade's punch, filled with rage, smashed Orochimaru's upper body into pieces!
It was not until this time that Jiraiya came back to his senses from his surprise. He hurriedly stopped Tsunade who was about to continue attacking, and at the same time, turned his head to look at Orochimaru.
"Aren't you going to explain? Have you forgotten the original agreement?"
That's right, Orochimaru is not dead. Not to mention his flawed life-saving method, even if he didn't die, as long as he was not a fool, he would definitely not ignore Tsunade's emotions at this time.
After all, he is my grandfather, my real grandfather.
This is also the reason why Orochimaru asked Tsunade to punch him just now. No matter what, even if he had obtained the consent of the first and second generations in advance, what he did was still not fair, so letting Tsunade punch him was harmless.
Of course, in order not to affect the overall situation, one punch is enough.
Therefore, when Jiraiya stopped Tsunade, a group of white snakes slowly gathered and merged not far from the crowd, and finally formed the figure of Orochimaru.
Although it was not the first time they saw Orochimaru's technique, Jiraiya and the others still subconsciously frowned. It was too disgusting.
Taking in everyone's reactions, Orochimaru smiled faintly. As someone who pursues the truth, he wouldn't care about such external things. However, Shiro, if it were him, would probably care about such things.
Thinking of this, Orochimaru smiled faintly and glanced at Shiro's soaring magic power.
"Orochimaru!" Jiraiya spoke again in a loud voice. At this time, a hint of murderous intent had already emerged in his eyes!
If Orochimaru really takes that step, he doesn't mind cleaning up the mess on behalf of the Third Generation!
"Alright, Monkey's apprentice, your name is Jiraiya, right? Let your guard down. We agreed on this. And you, Tsuna, gather your chakra."
At this time, the second generation slowly opened his eyes, called Jiraiya and Tsunade, and explained to Orochimaru.
"But, Second Grandpa, why?"
The second generation looked at Tsunade and shook his head silently: "It is not suitable for you to know for the time being. You will understand after a while."
"Immortal Reincarnation consumes the soul. Second Grandfather, do you know this?"
"Tsuna, this jutsu was invented by Tobirama. I personally sealed the Book of Sealings. We know its side effects better than you do. It can only exert a little bit of soul power for Konoha. Don't worry, we have it covered."
After observing the surroundings, Hashirama turned to look at Orochimaru and asked in confusion, "If I remember correctly, this should be the Land of Water, right? Your plan is going to be carried out here? Isn't it time yet?"
Orochimaru glanced at Tsunade, who had calmed down, and after confirming that she would not attack again, he took two steps forward.
"No, our plan has not started. This time it is the Fire Nation's action against the Water Nation."
Hashirama looked at the Impure World Ninja summoned by Orochimaru, and Shiro Togata, whose chakra (magic power) was comparable to his own in his prime, and frowned: "With this kind of force, what are you going to do to the Land of Water?"
Orochimaru smiled and said softly: "Destroy the country~"
“Huh~~”
Hashirama was silent for a moment, and suddenly, a huge amount of chakra burst out from his body, condensing into a powerful force pressing towards Orochimaru!
"What did you say?"
"Destroy the country. This action is to destroy the Water Country." Orochimaru replied calmly. Now he was not frightened by Hashirama's aura.
Of course, in order to cooperate better, Orochimaru pulled out the prepared scroll from his sleeve and handed it to Hashirama.
"This is the daimyo's handwriting. You can take a look at it."
After saying that, Orochimaru just looked at Hashirama quietly.
After a while, Hashirama looked up at Orochimaru: "Why?"
This time, even Tobirama was very surprised. He knew that this order was most likely true, and it was definitely not a decision forced upon the daimyo, otherwise his elder brother would not have reacted like this.
But this is exactly what he is confused about. What did the Water Country do to make the Daimyo directly launch a war of annihilation?
You know, when Kirigakure destroyed the Whirlpool Country, wait, the Whirlpool Country!?
A possibility flashed through Tobirama's mind, but he was a little bit unconvinced. With Konoha's current power, Kirigakure wouldn't be so bold as to do such a thing, right?
So he looked at Orochimaru with a doubtful look, and got a positive answer.
"That's right, just as the Second-Daimyo thought, the people from Kirigakure conducted human experiments on the Uzumaki clan they captured, and it should have been very frequent!"
Hashirama opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately couldn't utter it. He was kind, but this kindness was more inclined towards his own village, and secondly, towards other people.
So when he got confirmation from Tsunade, he fell silent.
After a while, Hashirama looked at Orochimaru, his eyes flashing dangerously: "You, did something to the Daimyo?"
Although he served as Hokage for a short time and appeared to be a very naive person, this did not mean that Hashirama did not understand political tactics; he simply disdained to use them.
It was precisely because of this that he knew very well that the Fire Nation would not launch a war of annihilation against another big country for a family with only a few members left, even if they were old friends with that family!
Orochimaru was stunned, as if he had not expected that the rough-mannered first-generation Hokage could think of this, and his impression of him changed slightly.
Yes, ending an era cannot be achieved by relying solely on military strength.
While thinking in his heart, Orochimaru's movements were not slow on the surface. He shook his head: "No need. Those politicians know very well that in today's era, only ninjas have the right to speak, especially powerful ninjas. In the current village, the Fourth Hokage is the son-in-law of the Uzumaki clan. The head of the Uzumaki clan is one of the village advisors. Moreover, the currently recognized strongest person in the ninja world - Shiro Emiya, is not a biological brother to Kushina Uzumaki, but they are siblings.
How to choose? Actually, there is no need to choose.
