Chapter 222: The Power of the Spiral Wheel and the Earth [Seeking Monthly Pass]
Ohnoki saw Toneri's behavior and just wanted to say something mocking, but his expression immediately changed.
He looked at the original realm stripping barrier he had released in shock.
Under normal circumstances, all ninjutsu should lose their ability to resist and disappear after being wrapped by this barrier.
But why does he now feel that his barrier is expanding crazily and uncontrollably, as if there is something inside that is impacting crazily?
To be on the safe side, Ohnoki landed on the ground, and slapped his old and smaller hands on the ground.
"Earth Release-Gangli Style Technique!"
Along with the rumbling sound, a huge rock monster was summoned by Onoki. Its huge and hard body reflected its strong defense.
He crossed his hands on his chest and squatted down, blocking Ohnoki's face like a huge wall.
The next second...
boom!!!
The deafening sound of the explosion resounded throughout the valley, and even some of the rocky cliffs in the valley began to collapse. The originally beautiful environment in the valley became a mess at this moment.
Onoki's white original boundary peeling barrier grew crazily in the explosion of the spiral wheel, and anything that came into contact with the barrier was instantly turned into powder.
And in the end, the original boundary peeling barrier was unable to withstand the full power of the spiral wheel Yu's explosion, destroying almost half of the entire valley.
The dust gradually dispersed, and there were no more sounds of fighting and destruction.
The five Iwagakure village jonins who hid in time reappeared in the valley with shock in their hearts.
When they saw the situation in the valley at this time, their pupils shrank subconsciously.
"What... such terrifying destructive power!"
In front of him, between Toner and Onoki, there was a huge depression more than ten meters deep, and all the surrounding plants disappeared at this moment.
The beautiful valley became a mess at this moment, like a Gobi Desert.
Moreover, in front of Ohnoki, the rock Gosei he summoned had become dilapidated. The hard and huge rock on his body was now full of pits, and there were not many intact places left.
Bang——
A burst of smoke drifted by, and Gang Lishi disappeared, leaving only the dark-faced Onoki and the Toneri standing opposite him, still with a smile on his face.
Ohnoki was shocked in his heart. He knew that the spiral wheel Yu that Toneri had just performed did not belong to any of the Five Elements Ninjutsu, so it was difficult for Dust Release to truly completely eliminate it and could only offset most of the power.
Wood Release, coupled with the strange black chakra mass he just used, these two points alone are enough to make Onoki very afraid of Toneri.
At this time, he finally believed that Kakuzu was really willing to become his subordinate, and was not just a random person just to raise the price.
But why does such a powerful person, and a ninja who can escape, have no reputation at all in the entire ninja world?
It's as if this person never existed.
Looking at the slightly ordinary face, the huge scarlet scythe carried behind his back, and the cold smile on the corner of his mouth, he looked quite like a god of death.
Isn’t this guy the God of Death?
As soon as this thought appeared in Ohnoki's mind, he threw it away.
After the death of Senju Hashirama, there will be no more "gods" in the ninja world. Even if he is as powerful as Sanshouyu Hanzo, giving him the title of "demigod" is just because Iwagakure and Sunagakure don't want them.
The loss was too ugly, and I didn't want to admit that I lost to Konoha and a small hidden village.
There was a reason why Meito, who had just pulled Hanzo up, gave him the title of "demigod" to show that he was defeated.
By pulling your opponent up, you are also pulling yourself up.
In fact, neither Chiyo of Sunagakure nor himself have a high regard for Sansho Hanzo, who is known as the "demigod".
The five Iwa nin fell down and stood around Ohnoki, looking at Toneri warily.
At the same time, Kakuzu, who had run away long ago, also appeared next to Toneri.
Although he ran far away just now, it doesn't mean that he didn't see the scene in the valley.
Weren't we here to discuss business originally? How did it end up in this situation? Onoki, young and old, all used the Dust Release.
"What? Do you want to kill him? His head is in the bounty world, but the reward is much higher than the mission reward." From Kakuzu's words, Toneri could hear a feeling of eagerness to try.
Well, he's not that scared. The Third Tsuchikage is younger than him. Kakuzu is just a little worried about Seton, but that doesn't mean he's afraid of Onoki.
Toneri looked at him in surprise, "You don't have a fever, do you? Do you think you can kill that old guy? Anyway, I don't think I can do it myself."
Kakuzu's expression darkened.
Why are you using this ultimate move to kill him?
Is it fun?
Then I saw a sneer on Toneri's face, "Huh, you know that, right? Who put a reward on me last time?"
Hearing this, Kakudu's eyes widened.
Does he still remember things that happened so long ago?
How did Sherenhao and Jiaodu get to know each other?
Isn't it just because someone in the underground bounty world chose Toneri to offer a high price for his reward?
And that person is the third-generation Tsuchikage of Iwagakure Village, Two-Day Scale Onoki!
As a result, even Kakuzu, who was a Kage-level powerhouse, was jealous of him. He personally dealt with one of Konoha's genin, and in the end, he also suffered the consequences.
Are you so vindictive?
Kakuzu never imagined that Toneri would keep an event that happened so long ago in his mind. How petty he was.
Immediately afterwards, Kakuzu's hand trembled slightly. Back then...it seemed like he had carried out this mission?
When he saw the sneer on Toneri's face again, Kakuzu felt a little panicked for some reason.
He won't remember it, right?
Putting away his meaningful smile, Toneri looked at Ohnoki again.
"How about it, Lord Tsuchikage the Third? Now it's not just Kakuzu's identity that matters to you, right? I, a little-known ninja, am I qualified enough to attract your attention?"
Ohnoki's face turned slightly red, and his originally very big nose became even bigger. Two thick puffs of breath came out of his swollen nostrils.
"Hmph! Wooden ninja, are you a ninja from Konoha? Or do you have something to do with Konoha?" Ohnomu asked.
Wood Release is a special blood succession limit exclusive to Senju Hashirama of the Senju Clan. Apart from him, almost no one else in the entire ninja world knows it.
According to his intelligence, the Senju clan had already declined at this time, and except for Tsunade, who still insisted on the glory of the Senju clan, there was no one else.
In fact, even if she is Tsunade, her name is just Tsunade and she is not given the surname "Senju".
Toneri spread his hands and said: "No matter what my status is, what does it matter to you, the Third Tsuchikage?
And... do you think that if I really appeared here as a Konoha ninja, I would have stopped at that moment?"
In fact, just now, Toneri was quite surprised to see Ohnoki, who was so careless, being so easily imprisoned by his "Tree-Binded Eternal Burial".
So at that moment, Toneri really had murderous intentions, and that's why he used "Spiral Wheel Yu", an attack method that can relatively ignore Chendun's defense.
However, Ōnoki is still Ōnoki after all. Even though he is old, Chen Dun is still very strong.
Shiren realized that there was nothing he could do, so he restrained his thoughts.
Since Onoki can't be eliminated, we can still make money from Iwagakure Village bit by bit.
Although Onoki's face looked ugly, he still had to admit that what Toneri said was very reasonable. No matter what his identity was, he couldn't take action himself anyway. As long as he could solve it with money, he would be satisfied.
"I recognize your strength!
I was a little unsure about whether your organization could complete my task, but since there is a strong person like you, I can rest assured that this task will be handed over to your Kasumi organization." Ohnoki said with a hint of sincerity.
Originally, he just had the mentality of giving it a try. If he could bring Lao Zi back, that would be the best. If he failed, it would only be an attempt and there would be no loss.
But if it were Kakuzu plus Toneri, Ohnoki believed that the success rate would undoubtedly be many times higher.
"In that case, let's discuss the price again. After seeing the strength of our Kasumi organization, the Third Tsuchikage won't want to deal with us with a blank check, right?"
Hearing this, Onoki's beard trembled slightly.
No matter how you say it, this is not a small sum of money. If the opponent is not the four-tailed Jinchuuriki Lao Murasaki, and if his control over the four-tails is not getting better and better, he will be the indispensable force of Iwagakure Village on the battlefield.
, and he was not willing to spend so much money to find someone to bring him back.
"Sixty million taels, this is the limit I can currently accept." Onoki chose to give in. After all, the arrest mission was indeed stronger than the assassination mission.
Shiren stretched out a finger and waved it gently, "No, it is difficult for us to successfully complete a task of this difficulty without 70 million taels.
After all, the capture mission is not just a capture mission, it also requires finding the whereabouts of this ninja, which is not a small drain on the intelligence system.
There are also data analysis, trap layout, etc..."
Ohnoki's face darkened, and some black lines appeared on his forehead, "No! I can only give you 61 million taels at most..."
Immediately afterwards, Toneri demonstrated what price competition is in front of Kakuzu, a man who always puts money first!
In the end, the reward for this mission was settled at 65,330,000 taels.
As for why the reward for a mission worth tens of millions of taels is accurate to the value of 330,000 taels, it is because Shiren refuses to give in.
Some people would say, wouldn't it be better if Onoki just gave in?
Haha - if Onoki was so easy to talk to, no one would say he was stubborn anymore, right?
How easy is it to talk to an old man who has a bad temper and looks like a kid?
Moreover, according to Toneri's wishes, Yanyin Village must first pay a deposit of 15,330,000 taels before the Kasumi organization will undertake this task.
Onoki was very happy about this, because the normal task process was like this, and he gave some deposit to show that he really wanted to do this task.
Watching Ohnoki take out two scrolls, take out two thick stacks of money notes, take out 15,330,000 taels of money notes and hand them to Toneri.
Tonera and Kakuzu looked at each other and saw in each other's eyes the so-called imminence.
This person carries tens of millions of taels of money with him, and maybe he has even more!
I have to say that the allure of money is still very strong.
However, even if they thought about it, they couldn't really kill Onoki.
If they were really sure, they would have done it from the beginning.
"That's it, I wish us a happy first cooperation!" Toneri stretched out his hand and shook Ohnoki gently.
Being hired for the first time, you can earn so much money. It has to be said that it is much faster than Kakuto doing tasks bit by bit in exchange for bounties.
"I hope to see that person appear in front of me alive as soon as possible." Ohnoki deliberately emphasized "alive".
“Don’t worry, we are very professional!”
After saying that, Tomona and Kakuzu left the valley step by step in front of Onoki.
It wasn't until they completely disappeared from sight that Onoki said solemnly to the Iwa nin next to him: "I need to present the information of this Kasumi organization on my desk as quickly as possible!"
"Yes!" Several Iwa ninjas looked at each other. They were also frightened by the leader of the Kasumi organization today.
"At the beginning of the Third Ninja World War, all kinds of monsters and monsters jumped out. What is the identity of the leader of the Kasumi organization?"
On the other side, after Toneri and Kakuzu left, it was not that the two of them had no communication.
"Just now, did you really want to kill that big-nosed Onoki?" Kakuzu asked sincerely, holding the box containing money in his hand.
Because he was standing next to Toneri just now, he could clearly feel the changes in Toneri's body from the wooden escape at the beginning to the spiral wheel at the back.
At first, he might just have the mentality of giving it a try, but when the spiral wheel appeared, Kaku could clearly feel the well-hidden murderous intention in Toneri.
It was precisely because Toneri had murderous intent that Kakuzu knew that the ninjutsu he unleashed was certainly not simple, and decisively retreated first, so as not to affect Toneri's ability to exert his strength.
"Well, if I can kill that old guy, I will definitely kill him without hesitation. Don't forget my identity." Toneri didn't shy away from anything, and just said calmly.
In any case, he is a Konoha ninja, and at this time, Iwagakure Village is at war with Konoha. If the third Tsuchikage, Junoki, can be eliminated, it will definitely ease the war for Konoha.
, maybe it can also directly cause civil strife in Iwagakure Village.
Even though Toneri dislikes the high-level officials of Konoha now, he still has many friends and connections in Konoha.
Toneri continued: "Forget it, there will naturally be people in Konoha who will deal with them. Let's just make money from Iwagakure Village honestly."
Kakuzu nodded and said nothing. He no longer had a hidden village of his own, and no one he could trust. All he had left was the money.
To be able to make so much more money this time, Sheren's existence is crucial.
"By the way, have you confirmed where Lao Zi is now?"
Before they actually accepted this mission, Scheren had already begun to inquire about Lao Zi's location.
I originally thought that he had always stayed in Yanyin Village, which would be a bit difficult to deal with, but from this mission, we can understand that Lao Zi has left Yanyin Village.
A wild four-tailed Jinchuuriki, and it was a Jinchuuriki that Toneri had not collected chakra. He would do it even if there was no such task. To them, this task was simply to give money.
"We have almost determined the general area. We can't determine it accurately yet, but we have sent people to get a closer look. There shouldn't be much difference," Kakuzu said.
Toneri nodded, "In that case, before you determine Lao Zi's location, please do one thing for me first. At the same time, investigate the Jinchuriki of the two tailed beasts, Six-Tails and Seven-Tails, to see if you can find them.
s position."
"What's up?"
"Let's talk about it when we get back!"
...
...
Konoha.
In the office of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, several elders of Konoha gathered here at this time.
Only the root leader Shimura Danzo is missing.
But even if Danzo is not here, the other two advisors, Koharu Koharu and Mito Kadeno, can also represent his will.
Although they are all Konoha's advisers in name, many times when Danzo makes suggestions, he will put himself in the perspective of justice, and the more emotional Sarutobi Hiruzen cannot refute the concessions.
The only way Sarutobi Hiruzen could reject Danzo's suggestion was the identity of the Third Hokage.
Over time, these three consultants stood in a unified position because of Hiruzen Sarutobi's unreasonable identity as Hokage, which was similar to standing on the opposite side of Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Therefore, for many things, even if Danzo is not around, Koharu and Mito Monobu can still express his meaning.
"Hiruzhan, this is an absolutely critical moment for Konoha. You can't protect those young ninjas like this anymore. When we were young, we didn't have so much protection. Didn't we grow up later?" Koharu went to bed.
There is no taboo.
Mito Kadoyan also nodded, "Yes, too much protection is not a bad thing. I admit that letting young people go to the battlefield is likely to cause huge casualties, but you can't just focus on the possible casualties.
Note how much progress they will make if they survive the battlefield.
This is both a test and an opportunity. How many ninjas are not trained on the battlefield? Do you think all of them are Namikaze Minato and Toneri?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen had a sullen face. Of course he also knew that the current situation in Konoha was not ideal. Uncontrollable phenomena were likely to occur on various battlefields. The lack of combatants had always been Konoha's biggest flaw.
"No! They are the future of Konoha. Only if they can grow up successfully can Konoha have the brightest future." Hiruzen Sarutobi refused.
When Koharu and Mito Kaden went to bed, they heard Sarutobi Hiruzen's answer and did not have any surprises.
Just looking at each other, Koharu nodded before turning to bed. Mito Katoyan took out a scroll from his arms and placed it in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"We knew you would make such a choice, so Danzo left this scroll before he went to the battlefield. He said that if you read it, you would make the right decision."
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the scroll in front of him in silence.
Reason told him that there was very important content in it and he must read it, but reason told him that he must not read this thing, otherwise Danzo would have figured it out, and he might have agreed to their proposal.
But he is still Hokage after all, and he can only be in a rational state when he needs to be rational.
I opened the scroll and read it slowly.
The more he looked, the more solemn his face became.
When Koharu and Mito Katoyan went to bed, they were also curious about what was written in the scroll, but he could only be curious.
After a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen put the scroll down heavily, as if he had used all his strength to spit out one word, "Okay!"
