Lei Luo's attitude is not clear, and the tone and words are all worth pondering, but Danzo still understands the underlying meaning of the former, but does he feel sympathy for the Uzumaki clan? This does not seem to be in line with Lei Luo's previous personality...
…
Danzo looked at Lei Luo thoughtfully for a moment, and for a moment he felt that the latter's motives might not be simple. However, whether the Uzumaki clan exists or not, what benefits can Lei Luo get from it?
Various sealing techniques information?
In just a few moments, various speculations emerged in Danzo's mind. At this moment, the plan that had been hidden in his mind for a long time seemed to be about to take action.
Lei Luo... seems to have a good impression of the Uzumaki clan, and this is undoubtedly a good thing for Danzo.
After pondering for a while, Danzo said word by word: "Your idea, to be honest, surprises me, Lei Luo..."
With that said, Danzo smiled meaningfully at Lei Luo, and then continued:
"Support the Country of Whirlpool? I told you that we currently don't have the strength to send troops. Even if we reluctantly send out ninja troops, the limited number of troops will not be enough to break through the carefully constructed defense line of Kirigakure Village."
"Sending troops will be a waste of effort and may even increase our losses. Without sending troops, the Kingdom of Whirlpool is almost destined to be destroyed by Kirigakure Village."
"Even if I don't want to see this result..."
Danzo sighed slightly, as if he really felt a little sorry, but after a moment passed, he stared at Lei Luo with stern eyes and said:
"But anyone with a discerning eye can see that the outcome of the Kingdom of Whirlpool is unavoidable, unless..."
Hearing this, Lei Luo's heart moved, but on the surface he pretended to be curious and asked: "Unless what?"
Danzo coughed slightly, his face became a little more serious unconsciously, and then he pointed out:
"Unless there is a force strong enough to break the balance and participate in the war between Kirigakure Village and Whirlpool Country."
With that said, Danzo once again turned his attention to Lei Luo, and the meaning was self-evident: "And this force cannot be too large in scale, but it must also have extremely strong combat effectiveness."
"You want me to take action?" Lei Luo looked at Danzo strangely and asked doubtfully: "You can just give the order directly for this kind of thing. Is there any need to be so roundabout?"
Danzo smiled and did not answer directly, but moved his steps lightly and walked forward again.
Since he didn't understand what Danzo was trying to do, Lei Luo had no choice but to follow him again, planning to see what the other party would say.
When he reached the door of a training room, Danzo stopped, turned around slowly, faced Lei Luo, and his expression returned to seriousness again.
He did not speak, but glanced at Lei Luo up and down, until the latter looked a little confused.
Then, Danzo spoke, but the words didn't seem to be addressed to Lei Luo: "Come out, Yi Mao."
A voice said "yes" came from the training room. Judging from the sound of the voice, Lei Luo felt that it should be a woman, and she was definitely not very old.
Just, woman? At the root?
Lei Luo tilted his head, becoming increasingly confused as to what Danzo meant. He narrowed his eyes slightly impatiently and quietly looked at the female Genin who walked out of the training room.
This female root ninja wore a mask and was petite. From her slightly awkward walking movements, Lei Luo judged that the opponent was still a "novice".
At least, from a ninja's perspective, this woman is probably not very strong.
After the female Gennin walked to Danzo and stood silently, Lei Luo glanced at Danzo, as if waiting for an explanation.
A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Although Danzo noticed Lei Luo's expression, he was not in a hurry to explain anything. Instead, he took the lead and said to Lei Luo:
"Lei Luo, first of all, I want to make something clear to you. Although what I am going to say next is related to the mission and the content is extremely important, how to do it depends on you..."
"After all, this matter is risky."
"So..." After pondering for a while, Danzo slowed down his speech and asked in an expectant tone: "Are you going to listen? About my plan on how to support the Uzumaki clan."
At this moment, Lei Luo felt a strange feeling coming over him. Some of Danzo's words and expressions obviously had a hidden meaning.
It felt like Danzo was scrupulous about something, he didn't dare to tell the truth all at once, but he kept testing himself back and forth.
Not only testing his own thoughts, but also testing his own position, the purpose is probably to find out his attitude towards the Uzumaki clan.
Lei Luo was keenly aware of this from the other party's several actions, and this also made him more curious about the meaning of Danzo's actions.
After all, with Danzo's power and character, he treated the issue of the Country of Whirlpool with such caution, Lei Luo felt that the other party would not be aimless.
The content of Danzo's so-called plan may not be trivial.
After all, Lei Luo also had some thoughts about the Uzumaki clan, so he said without hesitation: "Duanzo, don't be so pretentious. If you have anything to say, you might as well say it more clearly."
Perhaps because he felt that his performance this time was not normal, Danzo hesitated for a moment. Thinking of the information he had received about Kirigakure Village and the Country of Whirlpool, he took a deep breath and said solemnly:
"Lei Luo, I want you to assassinate the Sandaime Mizukage."
At this moment, Danzo finally explained his true thoughts. Lei Luo was slightly surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he quickly understood Danzo's purpose:
Although it is very difficult to assassinate the Third Mizukage, if it succeeds, Kirigakure Village will suddenly lose its leader and will surely fall into chaos for a period of time.
Without a leader, Kirigakure's offensive against the Kingdom of Whirlpool will inevitably slow down, and various scheduling problems may even arise.
If the Uzumaki clan seizes the opportunity, not only breaking through the siege and surviving, but also a strategic counterattack is not impossible.
There are many blood successor ninja clans in Kirigakure Village, and there are many high-level factions. If the third generation Mizukage suddenly dies...
In order to select the next generation of Mizukage, there will inevitably be a power struggle in Kirigakure Village, and this will undoubtedly give the country of Uzumaki a breathing space.
A brief thought passed through Lei Luo's mind. He raised his eyes and looked at Danzo, only to see that the other party was frowning, and the expression on his face was complicated and tangled.
In fact, it was not an easy task for Danzo to say what he just said.
Assassinating the shadows of other villages, if this kind of thing is done, no matter whether it is successful or not, Konoha's reputation in the world will definitely become bad.
What's more, Konoha fully bears the responsibility for killing the third Mizukage. It is completely conceivable what attitude the Kirigakure Village will show towards Konoha after the fourth Mizukage comes to power.
And these are only external problems. As for internal problems... Danzo is no longer willing to think about what kind of rebound the dove group will make after the incident.
