Chapter 118 Return to the city

"I have warned Sea Snake a long time ago that Jueying possesses a very deceptive illusion. Even I was almost fooled at the time." Hanzo tried to restore the situation at that time:

"The sea snake... probably saw that the opponent was so far away from him, so he lost his vigilance and fell into the enemy's scheme by mistake!"

Illusions, whether they are visual, auditory, tactile or olfactory, all involve the issue of casting distance.

And at five hundred meters, it is difficult for most illusions to affect this distance. This is a kind of inertial thinking of most people. The Sea Serpent Display is also affected. This is Hanzo's opinion.

"After all, I have been in the rear area for so many years, so it is understandable that my vigilance has declined." Kanzang sighed and couldn't help but say a few words for the sea snake.

"Okay, it's too late to say anything now." Hanzo waved his hands half-heartedly, then seemed to suddenly think of something, and asked:

"Wait a minute... you just said that we lost more than a billion dollars? A billion dollars? Not a few billion dollars?"

"Yes, the main loss is gold." Ganzang said this, but also a little puzzled:

"According to the subsequent inventory, the banknotes were generally well preserved, but all the gold was missing."

"And the seal showed no signs of being broken, but it was opened. This is very strange."

"It stands to reason that the only one who can open it with normal methods is you, Hanzo-sama."

Hanzo pondered for a while, and then said with emotion: "Maybe it's some unknown method, Jueying... is really a man full of mysteries."

Hearing this, Kan Zang's face became even more suspicious:

"Since he was able to take away the gold, it means that Jueying has indeed sneaked there, so why didn't he take away all the banknotes?"

"Even if you can't take it away, you should at least destroy it, right?"

Hanzo thought for a long time, and finally had no choice but to say: "To be honest, I can't guess what Jueying is thinking."

"Maybe some kind of conspiracy? No, that's not necessary at all."

"Forget it, no more guessing." Hanzo gave up his intention of trying to figure out Lei Luo's thoughts and directly concluded:

"In short, fortunately among misfortunes, although we suffered heavy losses this time, we have not completely lost after all."

After saying this, Hanzo gave an instruction to Kanzo: "Arrange as soon as possible to transfer the remaining money to the village. I will personally escort you this time."

It can be seen that Hanzo was obviously frightened by Lei Luo's "stealing around the house" this time.

"Also, the defense line needs to shrink again."

When Kanzang heard this order, his nerves suddenly became tense, and his face couldn't help but become a little more serious.

Seeing his "only remaining" absolute confidant like this, Hanzo said helplessly: "This time is different from last time. The situation has changed. Just retreat in waves as before."

In fact, after more than half a month of "showing weakness" to the enemy, Iwagakure seemed to have realized the fact that Amegakure had "suffered heavy losses" (through spies planted in Konoha), and was concerned about Konoha's "surge" in strength.

A strong sense of alertness arose.

In this situation, Yugakure is no longer a threat, but an object that needs to be united.

In recent days, Hanzo could clearly feel that the actions of the Iwa ninjas against him had become less frequent, and it seemed that the two sides were only close to an armistice agreement.

Tsuchikage Onoki even sent an envoy a few days ago, saying that he wanted to "talk" with Hanzo. The latter felt that this was probably related to Amegakure's alliance with Iwagakure.

But when Hanzo lost the sea snake, it was like his "backbone" was suddenly broken. Almost instantly, he lost most of his fighting spirit.

The reason is simple: without nuclear weapons, why would Yuyin go to the poker table again?

Although no one knows about this nuclear weapon at present, the confidence is different whether it exists or not.

It is not impossible to form an alliance, but at this time, Hanzo has made up his mind not to participate in the war between Iwagakure and Sandgakure in Konoha, or in other words, he is not so serious about participating.

If his allies want him to take action, he can just go on stage and deal with it for a while. He will never "offend" Konoha, let alone involve Amegakure again.

Anyway, it is common knowledge that Yuyin suffered heavy losses, and no one else can find fault with it.

Those great ninja villages, let them have enough fighting in the Land of Rain, Hanzo doesn't want to take care of it at all.

Amegakure's background was not deep to begin with. Two consecutive Kage-level masters were lost to Juekage, plus he lost dozens of jounin. Amegakure was already exhausted, and Hanzo could no longer afford to lose.

From the strong rise in the past few years to today's "dismal ending", under the pressure of the big powers, Yugakure has temporarily withdrawn from the stage of history, but have they really lost?

Just time will tell.

The situation in the world will soon change.

The era of chaos is coming.

The opponents that Konoha faced in the early stages of the Second Ninja War were greatly different from the original time and space. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

The same will be witnessed by time.

At this moment, it had only been ten days since Lei Luo arrived in the Country of Rain.



The words are divided into two parts.

For the next day or two, Lei Luo and Orochimaru stayed in hiding, sleeping day and night, just like they did when they came.

It is precisely because of this caution, coupled with Lei Luo's wide-range perception ability, and the two of them having ways to shield perception, that they can perfectly avoid all the rain ninja pursuers.

The Rain Ninjas are well aware of the combat power of Lei Luo and Orochimaru. For each wave of raids, each team has at least a hundred people, and they keep communication open at all times.

Although the hunting intensity of the Rain Ninjas was extremely high, facing Lei Luo, who was equipped with both "radar" and "invisibility", their efforts were doomed to be in vain.

Lei Luo was in a period of weakness and did not want to cause trouble, and the same was true for Orochimaru.

Therefore, even though there were several times when the Rain Ninjas almost got in their faces, neither of them had any intention of taking action. They just discovered it in advance and used ground cover to hide it.

During this period, Lei Luo saw that Orochimaru's escape technique seemed to be better than his own, so he was not ashamed to ask for advice.

Perhaps because the mission was successfully completed, Orochimaru was in a very good mood. He didn't care about anything and decisively taught Lei Luo his secret technique of escaping from the earth.

This is a B-level soil escape. Its name is "Iwagakure no Jutsu". Its function is to shuttle freely through rocky soil, and its efficiency is far higher than "Heart Decapitation Jutsu".

Lei Luo uses earth escape very frequently. In other words, he has accumulated a lot of "proficiency" in earth escape. In addition, he has a double speed state to speed up his understanding, so he mastered the "Iwagakure Jutsu" without much effort.

And the learning speed revealed by Lei Luo inadvertently made Orochimaru speechless.

Another day passed, and there were no dangers along the way. Lei Luo and Lei Luo crossed the Yu Ren's sphere of influence and headed towards the camp. Victory was already in sight.

"Lei Luo."

"Um?"

Running in the forest, Lei Luo slightly turned his head and looked at his companions when he heard Orochimaru's call.

"Are you sure you don't want any of this credit?"

"Your reward is enough." Lei Luo turned around and continued to run forward with concentration, his meaning was self-evident.

A trace of confusion flashed across Orochimaru's face. Although the two parties had already negotiated terms before coming, he was also very clear:

Lei Luo's performance can be said to be that he is dedicated, from obtaining intelligence, to formulating strategies, to executing actions, Orochimaru basically has nothing to worry about.

Lei Luo's serious and responsible attitude made Orochimaru truly feel that his "money" was well spent, not to mention that the other party saved his life twice.

It had been a long time since Orochimaru had encountered this kind of teammate who was powerful, had many abilities, kept his promise, and had an online IQ, so he really wanted to continue to team up with Lei Luo.

If nothing else, the word "reliable" is enough to explain everything.

Because of this, Orochimaru wanted to give Lei Luo some credit, in order to win over Lei Luo, but unexpectedly the other party looked down upon him at all.

'It seems that I have to step up the development of new techniques.'

Orochimaru thought to himself that he understood what Lei Luo wanted, and in order to successfully "poach people" from Danzo, he also understood what he should do.

"We're here." Lei Luo said, drawing Orochimaru's attention back.

Seeing Lei Luo walking into the camp gate like no one was around, and the guarding ninjas looking like they were hesitant to speak, wanting to stop but not daring to stop him, Orochimaru smiled slightly and followed closely.

"That is Juekage, our ninja from Konoha."

Orochimaru explained to the guarding ninja that it was probably because Lei Luo was not wearing a mask at all when he went out, and not many people knew his true appearance, so the guarding ninja acted a little confused.

Lei Luo thought to himself that since his name had been spread a lot, his appearance would inevitably be exposed one day, it was just a matter of time.

In this case, wearing a mask to hide your eyes is just to make people laugh.

Lei Luo was too lazy to think about why Orochimaru wanted to cause trouble for Danzo, but he would never take the blame for his identity being exposed. With Danzo's power and character, Orochimaru would surely be able to bear it by then.

"Hey? Is that Lord Juekage?" The gatekeeper ninja was a young man. Hearing Orochimaru's explanation, he looked back with curiosity, but only saw a black shadow flashing away.

"I didn't expect Lord Jueking to be so young." The gatekeeper ninja sighed, and then looked at Orochimaru in confusion:

"Lord Orochimaru, where have you two been during this time? There are many people looking for Lord Juekage, and they told me to pay more attention."

"We are performing a secret mission." Orochimaru didn't say much. After a simple explanation, he looked at the gatekeeper ninja suspiciously:

"A lot of people are looking for Lei Luo? Who are they?"

If I remember correctly, I was teaching Lei Luo the sealing technique some time ago. At that time, the other party ordered Gen Nin to guard the door and blocked a group of visitors.

Seeing that Lei Luo seemed to have no intention of entertaining guests, the visitors stopped for a while. Why did these people become active again after such a long time?

"They are basically the heads of the major families, and there are also a few jounin and special jounin." The gatekeeper ninja scratched his head.

Orochimaru nodded clearly, patted the guarding ninja on the shoulder and left.

Seeing Orochimaru walking away, the gatekeeper ninja remembered the previous words of the ninja clan leaders and complained: "The relationship between these big shots is really complicated."

After that, he continued to guard the door meticulously.

It wasn't until his companion not far away on the other side came over and curiously inquired about the content of the conversation that the calm was broken again.

In fact, the reason why these ordinary ninjas are so gossipy is because Lei Luo's current "heat" has not subsided.

For more than half a month, there was no news flowing between the camp and Konoha Village, and this also caused the relevant information about Lei Luo to be gradually "picked out".

Born as a civilian ninja, he is seventeen years old this year and is an ordinary chuunin. He has never had a dazzling "aura of genius" in the past.

But for such a person, his other identity is "Master Jueying" whose strength can rival the demigod Yugakure.

The known information alone is enough to "eye-open" everyone. At the same time, the strong curiosity also drives the ninjas to want to know more.

Logically speaking, information related to Jueying is confidential and should not be explored at will by unrelated persons.

But neither Mito Kadeni in the camp nor Hiruzen Sarutobi who was in charge of Konoha seemed to have any interest in stopping this "evil trend", and even intended to condone it.

Danzo saw that the situation was not going well and wanted to take action, but the news spread too quickly. How could he manage so many people with his small manpower?

Lei Luo was completely unaware of the twists and turns among the high-rises of Konoha. He was walking on the way back to the camp, intending to take a bath first and then have a good sleep.

Then, he met Jiraiya who was guarding his door and seemed to have been waiting there for a long time.

"What are you doing?"
