Chapter Three Hundred and Two Big Traitors Like Loyalty
Although Uzumaki Cheng expressed his inner speculation in the form of a question, his tone was undoubtedly very firm, as if he had concluded that Lei Luo had lied in front of the Uzumaki clan leader and others.
After all, on the city tower a few hours ago, the Whirlpool Clan Leader asked Lei Luo about the number of reinforcements. The latter's answer at the time was "he is the only one", which also caused some dissatisfaction in the Whirlpool Clan Leader's heart.
But later, after Lei Luo used the Flying Thunder God's Guide Thunder to kill the Six-Tails Jinchūriki, many of the Uzumaki clan members, including the Uzumaki clan leader, fell into ecstasy, so no one stopped worrying about whether Lei Luo was alone.
This is the problem.
Perhaps in their opinion, with the presence of Lei Luo who can "throw" the Tailed Beast Jade back at any time, the Uzushio Village's defense is already impregnable and there is no risk of being breached.
This is also the reason why they can hold this banquet openly before the war is over.
But now, when Uzumaki Cheng suddenly mentioned this, it was obviously not without purpose. Although Lei Luo didn't know what the other party had in mind, he did not intend to admit so frankly that he had fooled the Uzumaki clan leader before.
"Are you right? I don't think we need to discuss it here."
Lei Luo's expression remained unchanged, and his calm expression seemed to be silently telling Uzumaki Cheng's speculation that it was completely nonsense. He even picked up the wine glass and took a sip to show that he was not panicked at all.
Seeing this, Uzumaki Cheng smiled slightly, his expression also unchanged, but his head lowered slightly, and he whispered into Lei Luo's ear:
"I know a little bit about the Flying Thunder God Technique. Even if this technique is developed by you and has such a powerful function as transferring the Tailed Beast Jade, there is one essence. It will not change."
"That is, all teleportation functions involved in it need to rely on the so-called coordinates, that is, the positioning function of the mutant ninjutsu that combines psychic techniques and sealing techniques."
"Unless the coordinates are set in advance, they will not appear on certain people or objects out of thin air."
As he said that, Uzumaki Cheng took a breath and saw that Lei Luo was not moved at all, but his vague expression seemed to indicate that he was listening carefully.
So, he plucked up the courage and whispered in a low voice;
"First of all, I don't think you have had any contact with the Vulpix Jinchuriki before."
"Secondly, the position of the Six-Tailed Jinchuuriki changes at any time. If you want to transfer the Tailed Beast Jade to him, the coordinates of the Flying Thunder God must also change with that guy at any time."
"That is to say, you must have a companion lurking near the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, waiting for the moment when you transfer the Tailed Beast Jade to send the coordinates to the Six-Tails Jinchuriki."
"This person is either a very powerful ninja, or a spy you placed beside the Six-Tails Jinchuuriki in Kirigakure Village."
"Finally, considering what I inadvertently saw before, the fleeting figure seen hundreds of meters away in the sky around the Six-Tails Jinchuuriki..."
"So, I prefer that you have a powerful companion who has been waiting for the opportunity to throw out the coordinates."
After speaking this long series of words quickly, Uzumaki Cheng retracted his leaning body and straightened his back again. He spread his hands seemingly helplessly, but said with admiration in his tone:
"I have to say that I am indeed your companion. I can accurately find the location of the Six-Tails Jinchuuriki and quickly set the coordinates without alerting many mist ninjas. This ability... is not something ordinary people can possess."
"At least, among the thousands of people in our Whirlpool clan, including the clan leader, none of us can do it."
Lei Luo slowly turned his head and looked directly at Uzumaki Cheng. The look in his eyes was a bit unclear for a while. It was hard to tell whether he was angry or happy, but one thing was clearly expressed.
That is, Lei Luo is not indifferent to Uzumaki Cheng's long series of analysis just now, as well as the final conclusion reached by the other party.
Seeing that something seemed amiss with Lei Luo, Uzumaki Cheng felt a little in his heart. He couldn't help but straighten his face and said quickly: "Sir Lei Luo, I didn't mean to pry into your secrets. I'm just... curious about your motive for lying to the clan leader."
After finishing his words, Uzumaki Cheng seemed to feel that it was not enough, so he added: "Of course, you are also very strong, not inferior to your companion at all."
"The cooperation between you two can be said to be flawless. All the ninjas in Kirigakure, including the jinchūriki and the Mizukage, are simply a bunch of fools and blinders in front of you."
Maybe Uzumaki Cheng's flattery had some effect, or maybe Lei Luo didn't intend to argue with the other party. In short, the first sentence Lei Luo spoke again was:
"What's the purpose of telling me this?"
Lei Luo seemed to have no intention of answering Uzumaki Cheng, and Uzumaki Cheng also sensed the interest and did not continue to ask further, and decisively followed Lei Luo's topic and answered:
"The purpose is simple, I want to show my value to get your help."
"Help?" Looking at Uzumaki Cheng strangely, Lei Luo asked pretending not to know: "I am sitting here now, am I just helping you Uzumaki clan?"
Due to the conversation just now, Lei Luo did not deny his analysis and judgment, so while Uzumaki Cheng confirmed some of the guesses in his mind, he also had a three-dimensional impression of Lei Luo's character.
If you add in the information about the other party learned from within Konoha...
Lei Luo was pretending to be confused. Uzumaki Cheng quickly came to a conclusion, but he did not feel anxious because of this. The conversation had already begun. Since Lei Luo did not choose to avoid the meeting and leave directly, this meant that there was still room for communication.
However, since Lei Luo was unwilling to take the initiative to say "certain words", Uzumaki Cheng naturally would not risk leaving any clues. He glanced around without leaving a trace and saw that no one in the scene was paying attention to himself and Lei Luo.
Here, he replied in a low voice:
"I know a little bit about you, Lord Jueking of Konoha."
"I also know a little bit about your pursuit."
"So I think there is a possibility of cooperation between us."
Lei Luo had never mentioned the name Jueying in front of the Whirlpool Clan leader and other Whirlpool tribesmen, and judging from the looks of these Whirlpool tribesmen, it was obvious that they did not associate the name Lei Luo with Jueying.
Lei Luo originally thought this was because the news about the Whirlpool Clan was blocked, but now it seems that this is not the case.
"Do you know my code name? Do you also know my pursuit?" He glanced sideways at Uzumaki Cheng, and without waiting for the other party to react, Lei Luo continued slowly:
"It seems that you are not an ordinary Whirlpool tribesman, tell me..."
"What can you give and what do you want from me?"
The topic finally turned in the direction he expected. Uzumaki couldn't help but take a deep breath. After adjusting his nervous mentality, he slowly replied:
"I have a lot to give, more than enough to pay for what I want."
"As for what I want..."
Glancing slightly at the direction of the Uzumaki Clan leader, Uzumaki Cheng said nothing, but Lei Luo inexplicably understood what he meant.
Uzumaki Cheng, this guy probably wants to plot something against the Uzumaki clan leader, and his motive... Lei Luo estimates that the other party wants to sit on the throne of the clan leader.
Due to the limited occasion, all communication was in silence, but Lei Luo still quickly understood Uzumaki Cheng's purpose.
Recalling the impression Uzumaki Cheng had on him when he first met the other party, Lei Luo smiled slightly. Although he didn't reply, he secretly said in his heart:
'Uzumaki Makoto, Makoto...it's really a good name.'
