Chapter 176 Shikaku's Decision
The matter of souls is easy to deal with. The Yamanaka family has never been a good family. Now the village is like a battlefield. They can just capture an enemy ninja and hand him over to the god of death. They have no psychological barriers to doing this.
As for the matter of the three generations, Hai hesitated again when the time came.
If there is a year or so, the Yamanaka family can fully support Danzo to take the position. At that time, Danzo will take over the Anbu, and some of his Root ninjas will move from dark to light. The Yamanaka family will take over the remaining Root ninjas, and everyone will get what they need and be happy.
It's not possible now. The time is too short. Danzo's reputation is too bad. One month is not enough. Should the Yamanaka family change their target temporarily? The selection of the new Hokage, the interests of the Yamanaka family, and the interests of Ino-Shika-Chou are all entangled. Haiyi knows that he is just an intelligence chief. He has no overall vision and lacks decisiveness. At this time, he needs Shikaku's wisdom.
At least on this matter, Zhu, Lu, and Die must reach a consensus.
"Wait a minute, I will discuss this with your uncle Shikaku."
".Okay, the Grim Reaper has a different concept of time than we do, but I can't delay it for too long."
Ino started to make random gestures with the Grim Reaper to delay time.
This is reflected in the outside world by the Third Hokage using the Shadow Clone Technique to seal the First Hokage, the Second Hokage and the Fourth Kazekage into his own shadow clones one after another. He is now trying hard to grab Orochimaru's soul, but because his own strength is about to be exhausted, the dragging speed seems particularly slow.
The Third Generation believed that it was due to his old age and frailty, and that he had consumed too much chakra in the previous battle. Now that he had begun to summon spirits, he had no way out. He could only hold his strength, determined to pull out Orochimaru's soul and sacrifice it to the God of Death.
On the other side, Haiyi used his ability to perceive the past to connect with his old friends, Nara Shikaku and Akimichi Choza.
Afterwards, he explained the situation on his side. Even Yamanaka Rino didn't know about the technique of confusing the mind, so he would not tell them, no matter how good their relationship was.
Haiyi automatically realized the skill of shifting the blame, and now he shifted the blame onto the First Hokage, saying vaguely that this was a backup plan made by the First Hokage in the hope that Ino would save the Third Hokage.
Don't ask, the answer is that the first Hokage was highly respected, wise, and had great foresight.
Anyway, these ninjas in their thirties have never come into contact with the first Hokage, and Konoha Village has taken a series of measures to glorify its former leader. Now that the first Hokage has been sealed by the God of Death, it is truly a true death without evidence, so naturally anything can be said.
The title of the first Hokage really fooled the two of them.
After talking about the first generation, Haiyi brought the topic back to the topic: "Time is short, Shikaku, you must make a decision, should we save the third generation now?"
His hidden message is who we should support to be the new Hokage, but it is difficult to say it out loud.
In fact, Shikaku and the Sandai have a good personal relationship, and Ino-Shika-cho and the Sarutobi family have an even longer friendship, but friendship is friendship, and adults often consider their own interests.
When the Third Hokage and Danzo faced the descendants of Uchiha Kagami, did they consider the issue of friendship?
Ninety-nine percent of Shikaku's mind was spent on thinking about the pros and cons. The Genin from Sound Village who was fighting him looked confused. What the hell? This is the leader of the Konoha Jounin Squad? My grandmother is faster than you! Is he letting you off too much?
The power of Akimichi Choza's attack also dropped by 90% in an instant.
Seeing that the two heads of the family began to let up, the ninjas of the Nara family and Akimichi followed suit. The head of the Yamanaka family was not there, and seeing that their allies were letting up, why not let up too.
The ninjas from the three families began to deal with the situation randomly, which in turn affected the Hyuga, Aburame and Inuzuka families.
The famous expert in bullying weaklings, who was originally killing the soldiers one by one with his palm, found that something was wrong. He looked around with his Byakugan and didn't understand why the attack power of the Ino-Shika-Chou was greatly weakened. It doesn't matter, the Hyuga family will follow up! His movements were as slow as the Tai Chi performed by the old man and the old lady in the park. The bodies of eight Sand Ninja and Sound Ninja were piled up on the side, and he was fighting with the ninth soldier to a stalemate.
Even the ninjas of the Sarutobi family have started to let us down. Clan leader and Hokage, haven't you always asked us to keep a low profile? We will keep a low profile now to show you!
Shikaku quickly made up his mind that he still had to lend a hand to the Third Hokage. As long as this man lived another month, Ino-Shika-Chou would be able to make preparations and arrangements in advance without being in a rush and damaging the family's interests.
Haiyi asked directly if he could use this opportunity to go further. Shikaku refused outright. He had enough experience, connections, and decisiveness, but he wanted to be Hokage? He refused. That job was too tiring!
The three families made an agreement to continue to assist the Hokage, no matter who that Hokage is.
"One month is enough, rescue, rescue the Third Hokage!" Haiyi immediately told Ino the result.
Ino began to prepare for the next round of sparring, and at the same time asked them to quickly capture a prisoner. She had already thought of the target. The man named Sakon under Orochimaru was very suitable. He had two souls in one body. For the god of death, this was definitely a good gift.
"Sakon? OK, got it." Shikaku got the news, and then he started to attack fiercely under the strange eyes of Hyuga Hiashi and other ninjas! Hyuga Hiashi was confused, not knowing what was wrong with them today. Seeing them start to attack fiercely, he could only intensify his offensive. He raised his hand and slapped the Otogakure ninja who had fought with him for more than 30 rounds to death.
As one of the Four Sound-Ninjas and an important subordinate of Orochimaru, Sakon had considerable strength, but he still knelt when faced with more than twenty jonin from the Ino, Shika, and Chou families.
Before he could react to what was happening, he was pinned to the ground and beaten violently by a group of jonin. Then they grabbed his shoulders and tied him up with ropes and took him away.
One of the four was killed by Ino before, and now the remaining two looked at each other in bewilderment, not even knowing what was going on. Their companion was gone? Are you in Konoha Village or a bandit den? How come you are so skilled in kidnapping?
The senior ninja of the Yamanaka family brought Sakon to the Yamanaka Flower Shop. Ino didn't say much. She took the mask of the god of death and put it on Sakon's face. A second later, this guy with two souls in one body lost all his life.
The Grim Reaper was very satisfied with the new toy that Ino found for him. He held the connected souls of Sakon and Ukon in one hand and played with them.
He began to feel a little fond of his "mentally retarded" friend, and took out a new mask and a ninjutsu scroll from his arms and gave them to her.
The previous mask was more like a temporary item, but this one is a tool for permanently summoning the god of death, and the ninjutsu in the ninjutsu scroll is naturally the Shiki Fuujin.
