Five hundred and twentieth nine chapters give up

"Instead of arresting the Uchiha without evidence, and thus arousing the resistance of the three detachments of Uchiha ninjas, it is better to focus more on the Rain Country."

Seeing that Lei Luo seemed to have his own plans, Hinata Tamaki didn't ask any more questions. He just nodded slightly, because he noticed that Orochimaru and Lei Luo still had something to say, so he said goodbye to the two of them in a sensible way, and then left in a hurry.

When Hinata Huan's back gradually disappeared into the distant forest, Orochimaru was silent for a while, and subconsciously looked up at Lei Luo, but unexpectedly the latter was also looking at him, and their eyes suddenly converged.

"What do you want to ask me for? Orochimaru?" Realizing that Orochimaru's expression was a bit serious at the moment, Lei Luo couldn't help but asked curiously.

Because of Orochimaru and Beilihu, he successfully awakened the electromagnetic escape blood relay limit tonight. Lei Luo was really very satisfied with Orochimaru, so he had decided: As long as Orochimaru's request is not too outrageous, then he agreed.

So I agreed.

Unexpectedly, Orochimaru seemed to find the next words a little difficult to say. He hesitated for a while, and then said intermittently: "Lei Luo... um... can you... save Sarutobi-sensei's life?"

Hearing this question, Lei Luo was obviously startled. Looking at Orochimaru's troubled face and the unbearable look in his eyes, he didn't know for a moment whether he should agree or not.

Along the way, Orochimaru has been by his side. No matter in every aspect, he can be regarded as the person who has helped him the most. Therefore, it is really difficult for Lei Luo to make a decision about his friend's request at this moment.

Should Hiruzen Sarutobi deserve to die? There seems to be no reason why he must die.

After all, this old guy has not offended Lei Luo in essence. The conflicts between the two sides were all due to the different ideas between the doves and the hawks. They were general trends and a power struggle without any impurities.

In other words, there is no personal enmity between Lei Luo and Sarutobi Hiruzen, only disputes of interests and conflicts of ideals and beliefs.

Thinking about it now, even if Hiruzen Sarutobi had been able to get the rewards for that mission in place, wouldn't Lei Luo have taken the initiative to provoke a fight between the two factions in Konoha like he does now?

Asking himself, Lei Luo suddenly felt that this seemed really uncertain.

Even if he worked wholeheartedly under Sarutobi Hiruzen, and the relationship between the leader and his subordinates was very pleasant, but with his own strength, sooner or later he would have to compete for the position of Hokage one day.

Lei Luo can pretend for one day, ten days, or even one month and two months, but can he pretend for three to five years, or even ten or twenty years?

Lei Luo knew very well that he really couldn't do that, so... Sarutobi Hiruzen would one day see through his true nature. There was a reason why he got along so well with Orochimaru Danzo and the gang.

of.

In other words, as long as Sarutobi Hiruzen lives for one day, he will have to continue to pretend to be the Fourth Hokage even if he takes the position of the Fourth Hokage. Otherwise, it will be a matter of time before a conflict breaks out between the two sides.

So, shouldn’t Sarutobi Hiruzen die?

Momo and Orochimaru looked at each other for a while, thinking about each other's origin, growth, and continuous strengthening, all with the company of Sarutobi Hiruzen, the teacher, even in later generations...

Sarutobi Hiruzen treated Orochimaru so coldly, but the moment Orochimaru attacked his teacher, he couldn't help but shed tears mixed with unknown emotions...

This decades-long master-disciple bond may not be so easy to let go of for Orochimaru...

Lei Luo sighed deeply, looked away from Orochimaru, and did not look at the latter. He just answered slowly:

"I promise you not to kill Sarutobi Hiruzen."

"But he must spend the rest of his life in prison."

Knowing that this was Lei Luo's bottom line, Orochimaru didn't say anything more, but nodded silently with a heavy face, indicating that he could accept this result.

"Thank you... Lei Luo."



Another half month has passed, more than a month has passed since the end of the Battle of Ishikawa Hill, and the war in the Land of Rain has finally come to an end.

Compared to the howling Sunagakure who was beaten by the Lei Luo Group, although Iwagakure Amagakure was the loser, he still managed to save some face in front of Konoha and did not flee back to his hometown in a hurry.

In a place called Chiba Mountain where the three forces of Amegakure Iwagakure and Konoha intersect, a peace talk among the three leaders was held here, convened by the two-scale Onoki and attended by Sansho Hanzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Iwagakure was weak, Konoha was anxious, Amegakure was bored, and everyone wanted the war to end quickly, so the meeting went very smoothly, and all the relevant agreements were signed in almost less than a day.

Although Konoha is the winner, Sarutobi Hiruzen knows what his own situation is, and he also knows that the other two know what Konoha's situation is.

Therefore, he neither showed any sense of superiority as a victor, nor did he show any sign of a lion's open mouth. He just made a few indifferent conditions to Iwagakure and then decisively announced that Konoha would withdraw from the war.

As for Yuyin...

Well, Sarutobi Hiruzen understands:

To be honest, Amegakure is already interested in Konoha, and humiliating Hanzo now will only add variables to the upcoming battle.

Corresponding to Sarutobi Hiruzen, Onoki and Hanzo did not embarrass Sarutobi Hiruzen very much. They basically said "what you say is what you say". The overall atmosphere during the meeting seemed very harmonious.

After all, everyone knows that Iwagakure and Amegakure will soon withdraw from the central position of the historical stage, temporarily giving up the "protagonist" to Konoha, and then let the whole world enjoy this feast of civil strife.

It is worth mentioning that Sarutobi Hiruzen did not request Ōnoki for an alliance in the end. Although there were many factors, the most important one: "He, Sarutobi Hiruzen, really couldn't afford to lose that person" undoubtedly played a decisive role.

function.

After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen really didn't want to have the title of "collaborator" in front of his name when future generations evaluate him as the Third Hokage after his death.

But...unbeknownst to Sarutobi Hiruzen, Namikaze Minato had sneaked into the Land of Rain with more than fifty members of the Flying Thunder God Commando, and then decisively started taking action.

Waiting day and night, running away with one strike, committing crimes on the run... After various tactics were arranged, in just over a week, all the "collaborators and traitors" the Third Kazekage confessed to were arrested.

If these "witnesses" fall into Lei Luo's hands, Sarutobi Hiruzen may really not be able to get rid of the charge of "collaborating with the enemy and treason". No matter how bad it is, he will probably end up with at least "colluding with the enemy and killing his comrades".
