Rebuild the Land of Whirlpools, start with a massive army of the Thirteen Guardian Soldiers.

Based on the battles fought by the Land of Whirlpools, has the Land of Whirlpools become this strong?

This enemy force, which is hostile to them, has not been wiped out yet?

It seems this Xu is not simple either...

But as the saying goes, there's no rush until the fire reaches your own house.

Let's wait and see.

At that very moment, the Land of Whirlpools suddenly spoke up, demanding that Konoha return the Whirlpool clan members living in their village to the Land of Whirlpools!

Konoha, who were watching the Land of Lightning's drama unfold, were suddenly stunned.

He's just a bystander, how did he suddenly end up getting involved?

Please give me flowers! Please give me ratings!

Chapter 51 Tsunade: The Land of Whirlpools? I want to go too!

The Country of Fire, Konoha Village.

The Hokage's office held an emergency high-level meeting.

However, this time it was a top-level meeting.

There were only four people in the entire conference room: the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi; Danzo Shimura, the Root of Konoha; and the elders, Homura Mitokado and Koharu Utatane.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sat in the main seat, his face grave, and said, "Kushina Uzumaki has finally been discovered by the Land of Whirlpools."

Koharu Utatane said, "The Anbu brought Kushina Uzumaki back in secret, and she never left the village after arriving in Konoha. How could the Land of Whirlpools have discovered her?"

Mitomon Homura frowned and said, "Could it be that the Land of Whirlpools has already planted spies in Konoha so quickly?"

Danzo Shimura said with a grim expression, "I told you long ago, if we had handed Kushina Uzumaki over to Root, none of this trouble would have happened!"

The other three subconsciously ignored what Shimura Danzo said.

Do you really think everyone else is stupid and can't pass the test?

Hiruzen Sarutobi tapped the table and said, "Alright, now is not the time to dwell on these things. Let's quickly discuss how to get past the Land of Whirlpools!"

Danzo Shimura crossed his arms and snorted, "We can't hand over Kushina Uzumaki! Konoha absolutely cannot lose the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen: "..."

Do you need to explain this to me?

As a weapon of war used to measure the strength of a ninja village, the loss of the tailed beasts means the loss of a means of checks and balances!

Therefore, the matter of the Tailed Beasts is of utmost importance!

The only way to seal and control the Tailed Beasts is through a Jinchūriki!

The first Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was the wife of the First Hokage, Lady Uzumaki.

But now that Lady Mito Uzumaki is getting old, she may go to the Pure Land at any time to join the First Hokage.

Therefore, candidates for the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki must prepare well in advance.

Right now, the only suitable candidate in Konoha is Kushina Uzumaki!

Once Kushina Uzumaki is returned to the Land of Whirlpools, they won't be able to stop the Nine-Tails without a Jinchuriki to seal it!

spare

Hiruzen Sarutobi rubbed his temples, looking troubled. "We can't hand over Kushina Uzumaki, but Konoha is currently at war, so it's not good to be too confrontational with the Land of Whirlpools..."

Although the war in the Land of Rain ended prematurely due to the intervention of the captain of the Land of Whirlpools, their war with the Sand Village is still ongoing, and they simply don't have the resources to deal with the Land of Whirlpools...

"drag!"

Shimura Danzo suddenly said coldly, "Let's stall for time. Anyway, the Land of Whirlpools hasn't said when they'll hand over the people, so let's stall for time!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded slightly.

At this moment, ②Turn-room Koharu reminded: ㈣“What if the Country of Whirlpools, which is unreasonable, suddenly attacks ⑤?” ⑥【ˇ㈣◎

Hiruzen Sarutobi was taken aback, thinking of the domineering nature of the Land of Whirlpools after its reconstruction.

This……

Forcing it is definitely not a good idea...

Mitokado Homura suggested, "Why don't we tell them the actual situation of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki in Konoha? I believe that as an ally of Konoha, the Land of Whirlpools will understand us!"

"..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo Shimura, and Koharu Utatane exchanged a knowing glance.

That look in his eyes was as if he were looking at a complete idiot!

Since the last time Konoha, as an ally, asked the Land of Whirlpools for help, only to be dismissed with a simple "get lost" by the Land of Whirlpools.

They realized that this alliance had probably been severed long ago.

The call for aid from the Land of Whirlpools was rejected by Konoha, and that was the end of the relationship...

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly regretted not agreeing to the Uzumaki clan's request for help; otherwise, all this trouble wouldn't have happened.

Perhaps we can even enjoy the current power of the Land of Whirlpools.

But who could have imagined that the Land of Whirlpools would survive the simultaneous siege by both the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Mist Village! And yet, it suddenly rose to prominence and developed so well! (Seven)

It's like after being wiped out once and rejected by Konoha, the Land of Whirlpools said: "I'm not pretending anymore, I'm laying my cards on the table, our military strength is top-notch!" Now, Hiruzen Sarutobi is filled with regret!

Koharu Utatane suddenly sighed, "If only I hadn't refused the Land of Whirlpools back then..." Upon hearing this, Danzo Shimura, Koharu Utatane, and Homura Mitokado all instinctively turned their gazes towards Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's face twitched, and he said speechlessly, "What are you looking at? Don't forget, we made the decision to reject the Land of Whirlpools together."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shimura Danzo, Utatane Koharu, and Mitokado Homura turned their heads back as if nothing had happened.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was feeling a bit tired.

These guys are always offering advice when things are going well, but when something goes wrong, they always try to shift the blame onto him.

What a great group of friends...

Returning to the issues raised at this meeting, Hiruzen Sarutobi thought about them carefully.

I think Mitokado's suggestion is also a good idea.

It just requires a slight adjustment.

We must not tell the Land of Whirlpools about this, otherwise Konoha will be put in a passive position.

However, we can send someone to the Land of Whirlpools to discuss terms and negotiate.

Perhaps we can use other conditions to get Kushina Uzumaki to stay.

This way, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was preserved, and the Land of Whirlpools was spared harm.

If necessary, they can also use Mito-sama's emotions to their advantage.

As long as the conditions are right, Hiruzen Sarutobi doesn't believe there's anything he can't give up!

In this world, there is nothing that cannot be bought with self-interest!

That’s it!

Hiruzen Sarutobi shared his thoughts.

After listening to this, the other three thought about it carefully and realized that this was the only way.

However, if Konoha were to exchange some other resources for a Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, it wouldn't be a loss for them.

The question now is, who should be sent to make these negotiations?

It's not appropriate to send someone of too low status; we must send someone of some importance to the Land of Whirlpools.

　er℃☆臼≈私另《,si¤↓③＇←捂￡摝★】siSOＵsuo： Only in this way can they show the sincerity of Konoha!

Koharu Utatane suggested, "Didn't Tsunade and Orochimaru just come back from the front lines? I think we should choose one of them."

Others nodded.

He is the direct disciple of the Third Hokage and is very likely to become the Fourth Hokage in the future; his stature is definitely high enough.

Hiruzen Sarutobi thought for a moment and decided to definitely send Orochimaru.

Tsunade is sometimes too impulsive, and she still holds a grudge about what happened in the Land of Whirlpools.

Letting her go might just cause trouble.

"Orochimaru it is."

Hiruzen Sarutobi made the final decision.

Orochimaru, who had just returned to Konoha to recuperate, was assigned such an important mission.

"Go to the Land of Whirlpools?"

Orochimaru's eyes flickered slightly.

This task is exactly what he wanted!

Ever since he met the sixth division captain of the Land of Whirlpools, he has developed a great curiosity about the Land of Whirlpools.
