Lei Luo's behavior of reversing the direction of the entire war not only won the respect of almost all the people in the Whirlpool clan, but also caused a great change in the attitude of the Whirlpool clan leader and many elders towards him.
The first is the Whirlpool Clan Leader. Although this old man has a rather bad temper and almost angered Lei Luo before, he actually doesn't have any evil intentions.
The reason why he behaved like this before was, firstly, due to personality factors, and secondly...it was just because he was forced to have an explosive mentality due to the current situation.
After all, he is the new clan leader who has just taken office. Whether it is his brains, strategies, or courage, not to mention the Konoha Hokage, the clan leaders of the major ninja clans, and even Danzo and his ilk are far behind.
After Lei Luo took down the tailed beast turret in Hidden Mist Village and solved the most deadly problem they faced, the leader of the Whirlpool Clan undoubtedly breathed a sigh of relief, and the string that had been in his heart for a long time could not help but loosen a lot.
No, tonight he summoned many elders and some powerful jounin from the Uzumaki clan. They all gathered in a restaurant that had not been blown up by the tailed beast jade, and held a banquet for Lei.
Luo Qinggong, please take the opportunity to express your gratitude again.
Although Lei Luo was unwilling to drink at such a critical moment, seeing that all the Whirlpool clan members were in high spirits, and with repeated requests from the Whirlpool clan leader and elders, he had no choice but to have two drinks.
From this small incident, we can see that the people of the Uzumaki clan are generally straightforward, heroic, and carefree in nature. In other words, they are a bit heartless.
The Kirigakure Village hasn't withdrawn its troops yet, why are you holding a celebration party now?
Do you really think that everything will be fine if you take away one Vulpix?
You know, those Kage-level masters in Kirigakure haven't made any moves yet.
Let’s not talk about others, but the woman named Bing is definitely not an easy character to deal with.
Moreover, Lei Luo thought to himself that he seemed to have not told them that the Three-Tailed Jinchuuriki had been killed.
In other words, even though this group of people knew that there was a tailed beast in Kirigakure Village, they were still able to be so at ease and even drunk tonight. Is this a kind of...
If I have wine today, I will be drunk today?
In the spacious wine room, Lei Luo sat cross-legged on the flat tatami, one hand leaning on the low table in front of him, supporting his temples, and the other hand holding the empty wine glass, turning it around in front of his eyes in boredom.
Turned around.
Beside them and across from them, there were all drunken Whirlpool tribesmen, about a dozen in number. Some of them were so drunk that their eyes were blurred and they were lying slumped under the table. Some of them were still holding out their red necks.
, yelling something with the people next to me.
As for the leader of the Whirlpool clan, this guy seems to be in an unusually high mood today. Even though it seems that Lei Luo doesn't want to drink, he still doesn't stop walking over to offer a toast. Lei Luo usually does it after just one sip.
He is so bold and bold that he does not look like an old man in his sixties, nor does he look like...a ruler who controls a large family with thousands of people.
Simply speaking, after several hours of eating and drinking, whether it was the Uzumaki clan leader, some elders, or some elite ninjas, they all seemed to have calmed down for a while, and they must have been a little drunk.
Therefore, Lei Luofang can be a little more leisurely and comfortable, and not be too upset.
"Sir Lei Luo, I see that you are not in a very high mood today?"
The familiar voice suddenly came to his ears, causing Lei Luo to turn his head slightly and focus his attention on his side, just in time to see the first Uzumaki tribesman he met after coming to Uzumaki Village.
It's Uzumaki Makoto. It seems like this guy doesn't have to guard the city gate tonight.
Judging from his age, he doesn't seem to be an elder. So the reason why he appears on this occasion is that this man with an unattractive appearance seems to be very powerful?
After all, he met an acquaintance. Lei Luo became slightly more interested, put down the wine glass in his hand, and replied meaningfully:
"The Kirigakure Village has not retreated yet, the danger has not been eliminated, and the enemy is still waiting outside Uzushio Village."
"In this situation, you can still maintain such interest. This really makes me admire you."
Although Lei Luo's tone was very calm, Uzumaki Cheng still heard the sarcasm in the other person's words, but he was not angry at all, but responded with a smile:
"After all, we have lived a precarious life for so long. Your actions today can be said to clear the clouds and successfully show us a way to survive."
"In this situation, a little relaxation can not only improve morale, but also relieve fatigue. The advantages should outweigh the disadvantages, right?"
The same word "situation" has completely different meanings when spoken from Lei Luo's mouth and from Uzumaki Cheng's mouth.
However, through these two short exchanges, Lei Luo became interested in Uzumaki Cheng.
Without it, just because this person was clear-headed, spoke fluently, and didn’t seem to drink too much, Lei Luo decided to continue chatting with the other party:
"Is this what you really think?"
He asked a funny question, Lei Luo didn't wait for Uzumaki Cheng's answer, and continued: "I think you seem to be a smart person, so you shouldn't understand how dangerous the situation the Uzumaki clan is facing now is, right?"
"The life and death of the six-tailed jinchuriki is still uncertain. In addition, Kirigakure and the three-tailed jinchuriki have more than 10,000 ordinary ninjas."
"If we add the Mizukage, Shadow Guards, and the chiefs of the major ninja clans, the overall combat power of Kirigakure Village is undoubtedly far higher than that of your Uzumaki clan."
"I ask you again, in this situation, are you really as calm as you appear now?"
Lei Luo did not choose to follow what Uzumaki Cheng said before, but once again reiterated the dangerous situation currently faced by the Uzumaki clan.
The reason why he said it again is not because he wanted to cling to this point and deliberately ruin the atmosphere in the venue.
But because the only one who could hear him speak now was Uzumaki Cheng, he wanted to test this Uzumaki tribesman who seemed to have some brains to see if he could say something that would satisfy him.
They were just chatting to pass the time, Lei Luo didn't mind trying to discover some talents within the Whirlpool clan.
Correspondingly, since Lei Luo has completely opened the topic, Uzumaki Cheng also decided to show a little "sincerity", that is, his true inner thoughts.
Uzumaki Makoto thought to himself that if the information he received, including his own subsequent analysis, was correct, then Lei Luo and Konoha, the force to which the opponent belonged, might have different attitudes towards the Uzumaki clan.
And this may provide him with an opportunity.
But speak slowly and don't rush.
"Although we, the Uzumaki clan, have been having a difficult time recently, we might very well find that the village has been attacked when we wake up, but that was only the past,"
"Now, with you here, I think although we can't sit back and relax, we should be considered to be out of danger initially, right?"
Although Uzumaki Cheng seemed to be flattering Lei Luo, Lei Luo felt that there was something in the other person's words. He simply raised his eyebrows and asked directly:
"Oh? I am only one person. I believe you have seen my strength on the top of the city..."
"Do you think I can handle the Mizukage, Kajinchuriki, Kagage Guards, Kanin Clan Chief, and ten thousand Mist Ninjas on my own?"
Self-deprecating words came out of Lei Luo's mouth, but the hidden meaning was understood by Uzumaki Cheng: Lei Luo was saying that Uzumaki Cheng was wildly fanciful and everything he said was just self-deception.
So, Uzumaki Cheng smiled slightly and replied calmly:
"You said something wrong. In fact, you are not alone."
