The person behind this disappearance case should be Orochimaru.
And with Orochimaru's personal strength and means, it is almost impossible to leave traces at the scene. In the original work, it is most likely because Orochimaru himself was unable to restrain himself later, or it was intentional, and he increased the number of arrests and arrests.
If the frequency of killing fellow ninja villagers is too fast, the number will increase even more, and the flaws will be easily exposed.
Human beings cannot always guarantee that they will achieve the highest level of concentration and completion every time they do the same thing. Orochimaru is also a human being and is no exception. Of course, it may also be because of the personal power established abroad and the strongholds have begun to take shape.
It was only when he was about to leave the village that he became so unscrupulous. However, Orochimaru obviously underestimated the strength of his old teacher and even overestimated his own strength.
If Hiruzen Sarutobi was not indecisive in the original work and finally couldn't bear to attack the disciple he once valued most, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who still retained about 70% of his strength during this period, would have a high probability of being able to kill him on the spot.
Orochimaru.
It can only be said that fate plays a trick on people.
The current general has not yet considered whether Orochimaru's incident will be beneficial or harmful to the Uchiha clan, so he can only conduct investigation work in accordance with the orders given by his superiors for the time being.
Search mission.
Anyway, it's just a show, it doesn't matter whether we can find clues or not.
The most important thing is what role you should play in this incident.
'However, there is no disadvantage in collecting first-hand information first. What to do later will be discussed later. Watching is one option, while contact and negotiation is another option. We still have to see the specific situation at that time!'
The general straightened his body and stood on a big tree, looking at the village in the distance. He narrowed his eyes slightly and thought to himself.
Orochimaru.
As a famous figure in Konoha Ninja Village.
Not only was he a direct disciple of the Third Hokage, he was also well-known in the ninja world during World War II and was known as the Sannin of Konoha. Although this title may not be what Orochimaru wants, it can undoubtedly prove Orochimaru's strength from this point of view.
.
In the original work, it looked like he was instantly killed by Uchiha Itachi with just one look, which looked very rubbish.
But from the analysis of the plot, this is probably due to the incompatibility of attributes. Orochimaru has already begun to study the art of reincarnation. After testing it on himself, there is a high probability that there is a problem with the soul, and the Sharingan is the restraint.
In this regard, Itachi can kill Orochimaru instantly, but it does not really mean that Orochimaru is weak.
The name Sannin is definitely not a joke.
In addition, he knows various forbidden arts and secret arts, and has a certain degree of involvement in blood succession limits and yin and yang escape. Orochimaru is definitely a top-notch existence at the shadow level. I don't know why, Orochimaru has not learned it.
The magic of Longdi Cave, otherwise this guy's strength can become stronger!
But that is also the strength that Orochimaru has later.
Orochimaru in this period is indeed a being that most ninjas need to look up to, but Shoji is not included. Even though Orochimaru in this stage is only in the early stages of research on the reincarnation of the dead, there is a high probability that there will be no problem with his soul.
But his illusion resistance is definitely not high. He has the Mangekyou Sharingan, which is already an obvious suppression advantage. And since Orochimaru needs the elderly Sarutobi Hiruzen, he can't bear it and doesn't want to take action, so he can escape and see.
, the current Orochimaru is most likely to be the weakest existence at the Kage level.
He should have the advantage of suppressing strength.
But after all, these are just one-sided guesses. If they are wrong, the risks they need to bear must be very high. Therefore, before taking action, the general must think clearly, 'What are the benefits of doing this? And can the benefits be offset?
Does it outweigh the disadvantages?'
'If I really want to say it, it can only be wood escape cells. Orochimaru, this is probably the most likely way for me to obtain wood escape cells. If possible, I can give it a try then!'
Jiang Si took a deep breath, gently touched the pupil position in his cold mask, and thought to himself.
After all, searching is a job that requires patience and care.
Especially since the real culprit behind the scenes is a very powerful and meticulous person.
In such a large area.
I want a thorough search to be completed.
The general team still spent several hours.
But unfortunately, there was no gain at all. This did not exceed Shoji's expectations. It only further deepened the fear of Orochimaru deep in his heart. Trace processing can also reflect the strength and cultivation of a ninja.
Although it is not directly proportional to an ability, generally speaking, the strength of a ninja who can handle the scene so cleanly will not be too low. Elite jounin is the bottom line standard.
The subordinates of the general department can also understand this.
Therefore, when the first phase of the search was completed and they returned, even if the masks covered their faces, judging from the surrounding atmosphere, it was obvious that the expressions of the three people at this moment must be very serious and solemn.
"How about it?"
"Sorry, captain, nothing was found. There were only some traces left by the original four patrol members. Other than that, no trace of the fifth person was found."
Xing said in a very solemn tone.
"It's the same on my side. Captain, I didn't get any useful information all the way here."
"Same as above."
Xiong Yan and Xi, who were on both sides, also responded.
"This is also something that can be expected. The investigation of the scene is just to ensure that there will be no final omissions. If the other party dares to arrest people directly in our village, their personal strength must be very strong, and traces should be processed as necessary. You don't have to
Mind you, what we have to do next is to expand the scope of the search and target the possible hiding places on the opposite side. Ninjas plus civilians, in the past year, hundreds of people have disappeared inexplicably in the village.
There are so many of them, it’s impossible for these people to disappear out of thin air!”
"It must be left in a corner of the village to familiarize you with the atmosphere and characteristics of these 'parties', just so that you can use this as much as possible in the subsequent search!"
The general said with a calm expression.
"What does the captain mean that we should search as far as possible in the corners of the village?"
Xiongyan said with a hint of doubt.
"It can be said that, but it is not limited to this. If the other party is really a high-level spy hiding in our village, there must be an identity on the surface, so the general area cannot be missed!"
