Volume 1 Chapter 198 No Chakra Metal, No Cooperation
"Okay, as long as you have the peace of mind, I won't say any more. I'll go get ready. I'm leaving tomorrow."
Kushina was full of confidence, and Chizuki felt that she should believe her.
In addition, the spy who was colluding with the outside was caught. Even if the Cloud Ninja Village sent people over, it would still be a question whether they could successfully enter Konoha, let alone attack Kushina.
The Third Hokage, knowing already the Cloud Village's plan to plunder the Jinchuriki, would certainly not sit idly by.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be a big deal if Kushina was captured, at worst she could be taken back.
But if the Nine-Tails is released accidentally, Konoha will be doomed.
The Third Hokage didn't think he could stop the Nine-Tails.
After all, he is not Hashirama Senju, and he cannot beat the Nine-Tails like he is beating a small animal.
Once the Nine-Tails is released, Konoha will definitely become a ruin.
Otherwise, given the Third Hokage's temperament, he would not easily agree to Danzo's revenge plan.
You, the Cloud Ninja Village, dare to touch Konoha’s hidden nuclear weapons. Can’t Konoha retaliate against you?
There is no such good thing in the world.
In the private laboratory, Orochimaru, who was doing experiments in a white coat, felt something and a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes:
"I don't think I invited you here."
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
Danzo walked slowly into the laboratory with a cane, and the cane made a dull sound when it hit the iron plate on the ground.
"Is this how you, Orochimaru, treat your allies?"
"The alliance between us has not yet been finalized. I have not received what you gave me."
There is no way to do this experiment.
Orochimaru quickly recorded the experimental process, put down the tools in his hands, took off his gloves and threw them into the trash can beside him.
At this time, Orochimaru has not yet turned to darkness, although he also yearns for immortality.
But now his personality is not as extreme as it was after the incident with Sheng Shu. He built this laboratory with his own money and it is a public place.
The top management all knew that Orochimaru liked to do experiments, so they built a laboratory.
A lot of equipment was purchased through the village with the approval of the Third Hokage.
The experiments and research that Orochimaru is currently doing are all legal and do not involve any taboo experiments.
Although he was introduced through the back door, Orochimaru values Nawaki very much.
Danzo wanted him to cooperate with him and needed to do some shady experiments, so Orochimaru put forward his own conditions.
In addition to building a hidden laboratory, chakra metal is also a necessity.
This is also the reason why Danzo transferred the chakra metal stored in the village.
He needs to cooperate with Orochimaru.
One of his eyes was blind and one of his arms was disabled, so Danzo was very anxious.
Because the village will not accept a disabled person as Hokage, as this will be detrimental to the village's image.
So Danzo wanted to recover his health.
In order to recover, he needs to do some experiments, which are shady and taboo experiments, and the person he cooperates with is Orochimaru.
“It was taken away.”
Danzo's face darkened, and he slammed the ground hard with his cane:
"I mobilized most of the chakra metal in the village, put it in a sealing scroll, and sent someone to deliver it to you. Who knew that something would happen right after leaving the village, and the chakra metal disappeared."
"That's a real shame."
Orochimaru inexplicably wanted to laugh.
How bad was Danzo's luck? The people he sent out were caught as soon as they left the village, and the chakra metal disappeared.
"That's unavoidable. Without the chakra metal, I won't be able to create some cutting-edge experimental tools, so our cooperation will naturally be invalid."
Some top-level experimental tools require the addition of chakra metal, and Orochimaru sees that Ropeki is working hard to practice physical skills and swordsmanship, so he wants to give him a suitable weapon.
This is when the idea came to Danzo.
Who knew Danzo was so unlucky.
"Anbu, check yourself. I'm afraid you contributed a lot."
"Humph, Sarutobi has grown old and no longer has the courage he had when he was young. If it weren't for me, how could he choose to investigate himself? How could he choose to take revenge on the Kumogakure?"
Danzo was getting angrier as he spoke.
It's a pity that Orochimaru doesn't care at all.
"Let's talk about it after you get what I want. Maybe after I come back from the Land of Lightning. I hope you can give me good news. Otherwise, you can only find someone else to cooperate with me."
"very good!"
"You will see my sincerity."
Danzo walked away with his cane.
It is understandable that Orochimaru is unwilling to cooperate. Everyone is the kind of person who won't release the eagle until they see the rabbit.
This is true for Danzo and Orochimaru. The loss of the Dakhla Metal is Danzo's own responsibility and has nothing to do with Orochimaru.
Without getting the thing, Orochimaru would definitely not be willing to cooperate.
“Hehe~~~”
After Danzo left, Orochimaru smiled with a meaningful smile.
What Danzo needs to consider is to find a way to get what Orochimaru needs before Orochimaru returns.
But where can I get chakra metal?
There are still some left in the logistics department, and with Utane Koharu's personality, she will definitely not let him take the things away.
The last time was an exception. If it happens again, Utane Koharu will be furious.
"It seems that I need to go meet Hanzo."
Danzo felt that meeting Hanzo was an opportunity. He could use this opportunity to support Hanzo in attacking the Iron Kingdom, and then take the opportunity to ask for some benefits, such as chakra metal.
As for how much benefit Hanzo can get from the Iron Kingdom, it depends on his ability.
Konoha went to find Hanzo under the banner of persuading Hanzo to withdraw his troops, but as for how to proceed, isn't it Danzo who has the final say?
If Hanzo is unwilling to leave at that time, Konoha will be helpless. They can't fight with the Rain Village again over this matter, right?
Danzo, who originally didn't want to get involved in the Iron Kingdom incident, felt that he should take a trip.
As for how the fight between Rain Village and the Kingdom of Iron will end, that is not his concern.
Having made up his mind, Danzo came to the Hokage's office building, found the Third Hokage who was having a headache about this matter, and proposed to go to Hanzo to negotiate.
"????"
Aren't you unwilling to intervene?
Why did you suddenly change your mind?
The Third Hokage was a little confused, but he finally agreed to Danzo's request.
After all, Konoha really needs to send someone out to contact Hanzo. Regardless of success or failure, at least the attitude needs to be correct.
As for whether Hanzo is willing to evacuate, we will have to wait until after contact to find out.
After arranging the affairs of the village, Qianyue also prepared for the long journey.
In the middle of the night, Orochimaru arrived at Chizuki's door.
Looking at Qianyue who came out through the window, he smiled slightly:
"Qian Yuejun is indeed a man of his word."
“........”
You, Orochimaru, call me Senyue-kun. Why does it make me feel so uncomfortable?
We agreed on this before, just call me by my name.
As a result, Orochimaru went out for a stroll and then went to the battlefield of River Country for a while. After he came back, his old problem recurred.
Every time she heard Orochimaru call out "Chizuki-kun", Chizuki always felt something was wrong and always felt that Orochimaru had bad intentions towards her.
The two left the village through the hidden exit used by the Anbu and headed towards the Cloud Village under the cover of night.
"What intelligence does the village have on the Jinchuriki of the Kumogakure?"
Since it’s related to the mission, Qianyue thinks it’s better to figure it out in advance.
