Naruto: On the Night of the Nine-Tails, I Resurrected the Previous Hokage

After preparing a special sealing vessel to seal the White Zetsu, Tobirama continued to help Sasori of the Red Sand develop prosthetics.

The chakra meridian system and Hashirama cell technology used in prosthetics are both highly sophisticated technologies.

Therefore, Orochimaru completely entrusted this research to Tobirama and Sasori of the Red Sand.

After that, Orochimaru found Kakashi.

In the office.

"Kakashi, how's the war situation in the Land of Rivers lately?"

Several months have passed since the Hidden Mist Village deployed its troops to the Land of Rivers, and the Land of Rivers sent a request to Konoha. Orochimaru certainly needs to keep an eye on the situation there.

Kakashi was in charge of weapons sales, which gave him access to a lot of intelligence.

So he took a report out of the drawer.

Orochimaru glanced at the contents of the report and frowned slightly.

With three of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist still alive, plus a Six-Tails Jinchuriki who could barely transform into a tailed beast, Sunagakure was having a very difficult time even without the Mizukage Yagura's intervention.

Furthermore, some problems have arisen at the border of the Land of Fire.

The prolonged war caused many civilians in the land of rivers to lose their homes.

These refugees naturally wouldn't flee towards the Land of Wind, which is all desert; instead, most of them headed towards the Land of Fire.

This has caused considerable trouble for the Land of Fire.

"Lord Orochimaru, this is an invitation from Shinoda Tsutsuke, the manager of the Fire Country Trading Company."

Immediately afterwards, Kakashi handed a letter to Orochimaru.

The Land of Fire is a feudal country. For merchants to survive in such a country, it is not enough to just have money; they also need to stick together and support each other.

Merchants do have business dealings with ninjas, and the recent distribution of scientific ninja tools to various ninja organizations in the Land of Fire has naturally caught the attention of the head of this Land of Fire merchant group.

Orochimaru initially thought that Shinoda Tsutsuke was going to engage in some kind of commercial bullying scheme, trying to get his scientific ninja tool company to pay some membership fees or something, but after seeing the contents, he also showed a look of great interest.

This chairman actually wants the various chambers of commerce to absorb these refugees from the country of Sichuan by recruiting workers!

It includes various projects such as opening factories and expanding the production of inexpensive industrial products.

This is practically digging up the roots of a great name!

This is not hard to understand. Although these big merchants often cooperated with the daimyo, the daimyo mainly maintained a suppressive attitude.

If Orochimaru could integrate these merchants, he felt that it would be much easier for him to transform the Land of Fire and even the entire ninja world in the future.

Orochimaru naturally didn't need to personally deal with these merchants.

The production line has now stabilized, and with the iron ore supplied by Granny Cat, we can maintain a stable output for the time being.

Yekura's tasks were naturally not as busy as when the production line first started.

Orochimaru felt it was time to find something for Yekura, who was now idle, to do.

Kakashi is in charge of intelligence and sales.

But that's because scientific ninja tools are mostly sold to ninjas, and Kakashi has enough prestige among ninjas.

This task of showcasing the company's image to the outside world should naturally be left to the more mature-looking Yekura.

"Let Yekura attend this chairman's meeting... never mind, I'll go tell her myself."

After saying this, Orochimaru left Kakashi's office and went to Pakura's office.

Upon arriving at Yekura's office, I saw Yekura still wearing a backless dress.

Yekura also sensed Orochimaru entering and looked at him with her green eyes.

He quickly put down the documents in his hand, and then said:

"What's up, boss?"

"Yakura, you should know the information about the battlefield in the Land of Rivers, right?" Orochimaru asked.

Upon hearing this, Ye Cang lowered his head slightly and remained silent.

She was well aware that the situation in Sunagakure was dire.

She didn't care about the state of Sunagakure, but she had a disciple named Juan in Sunagakure, and Yekura was still very worried about her safety.

"Are you worried about your apprentice in Sunagakure?"

Orochimaru seemed to have sensed what Pakura was thinking and spoke up.

Upon hearing this, Ye Cang's beautiful eyes suddenly trembled. She hadn't expected Orochimaru to know that she had a disciple in Sunagakure.

I have a feeling they've been watching me for a while now!

However, this also requires the cooperation of Sunagakure; otherwise, I wouldn't have ended up in this situation.

Yekura had actually suspected this for a long time.

They were able to accurately predict the actions of the Sand Village's high-ranking officials and intercept them.

It was definitely not a coincidence that I encountered the enemy when I was surrounded by the Mist Shadows.

Pakura felt that Orochimaru was unfathomable.

However, as long as she can complete the tasks assigned by Orochimaru, Orochimaru will not restrict her freedom too much, so Yekura does not dislike this kind of life.

"She'll be fine," Ye Cang said calmly. "After all, she's someone I trained."

Yekura knew that now was not a good time to return to Sunagakure, and Orochimaru still had many plans that required her cooperation.

Therefore, she would never say that she was going to help her apprentice.

As long as we follow Orochimaru's plan, Sunagakure will be fine, and I can even become the Kazekage!

Seeing that Yekura was still somewhat sensible, Orochimaru handed Shinoda Tsutsuke's letter to her and briefly explained the other party's purpose to her.

"Let's bring Dao Huo and the others along; let's try to dominate their plans!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Cang nodded in agreement.

She could handle ordinary people on her own, and with the addition of three elite Uchiha members skilled in genjutsu, Yekura felt she had never fought such a rich battle before.

Moreover, businessmen are all bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong. Perhaps before she even has a chance to exert any force, those businessmen will surrender on their own.

Moreover, Orochimaru supports their plan; it's just that Shinoda Tsutsuke, the chairman, was leading them to make money, while Orochimaru is leading them to make money.

The merchants below will make the right choice.

After making a series of arrangements, Orochimaru first returned the hookah to Takigakure.

After the effectiveness of Hero's Water was confirmed, hookah smoke became essentially ineffective.

Moreover, he is basically a plant now, so it would be good for him to return to his roots.

After returning the hookah to Takigakure, Orochimaru had Tobirama use the Flying Thunder God Technique to send him back to Konoha.

……

The Land of Water, the Hidden Mist Village.

Obito looked at the good news coming from the front lines, but his expression behind the mask was not very happy.

"Obito, Konoha has no intention of joining this war, nor does Iwagakure. Perhaps we should just back down."

The previously anticipated scenario, in which both Konoha and Iwagakure would join the war, did not occur.

Before scientific ninja tools even appeared, Kirigakure had already gained the upper hand by relying on sheer strength.

Simply defeating Sunagakure without stirring up trouble and attracting the attention of other major powers makes this war meaningless.

After all, Black Zetsu's only goal is the Tailed Beasts. Only with the Tailed Beasts can he have leverage; otherwise, he cannot control the Eye of the Moon Plan.

The Sand Village had long since lost their Tailed Beasts!

Black Zetsu thought that they could wait until Kirigakure developed scientific ninja tools before attacking Iwagakure or Konoha.

But Obito clearly didn't think that way!

Since it cannot attract the attention of other ninja villages in the ninja world, this war can also be a tribute to Rin.

If you want the war to continue, you need to maintain a balance of power.

"I'll let the Six-Tails go berserk, and then I'll have Hiruko and Shennong retrieve it!"
