Naruto: Reincarnation of a Hundred Lifetimes, the Uchiha's White Moonlight
Chapter 126 Intelligence on the Land of Snow
Kakashi glanced at him helplessly, but also abandoned his lazy posture, hanging his hands at his sides, ready to enter battle at any moment.
"Hahaha. So these are the legendary Sannin who are famous throughout the ninja world?"
The sound of wind and waves emanating from the mecha was full of mockery: "I thought you were so powerful, but you're nothing special. Keep going. Again."
Relying on the mecha's formidable defense, he withstood several of Tsunade's monstrous punches without a single crack appearing on the mecha's surface. This uncanny defense was his greatest asset.
"What's wrong with this guy?"
"It's been going on for so long and it's still not over?"
Tsunade slammed her fist into the mecha, the impact sending a shiver down her wrist. Her brow furrowed deeply. "Something's not right."
"Something's more than just not quite right."
Jiraiya, controlling Gamabunta, dodged a Snow Release: Avalanche Technique, his expression grave. "This guy's attack power isn't top-tier, but the concealment of Snow Release is too strong, especially the mecha's defense, it's simply outrageous."
Both were veteran powerhouses who had experienced two Shinobi World Wars, and they sensed something was wrong after just a few rounds.
They exchanged a glance, decisively halted their offensive, and instead used ninjutsu to temporarily restrain Fuuka Nutō.
"Use the Vajra Lock. Try combining it with a sealing technique."
Tsunade said in a deep voice.
Jiraiya nodded secretly, and the speed at which he formed hand seals suddenly increased.
Golden chains shot out like serpents, tightly binding the wind-blown, raging mech. Then, sealing runes surged in like a tide, densely covering the surface of the mech.
"it works."
Jiraiya's face lit up with joy as he sensed the mecha's movements becoming sluggish and its defensive capabilities rapidly declining.
Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief and swung her fist hard.
Yun An stood aside, taking in everything, and secretly felt relieved.
He had initially thought that Tsunade and Jiraiya would struggle a bit, but now it seemed that he had underestimated his two old partners.
As expected of the legendary Sannin who were famous throughout the ninja world, they really have some skills.
Feng Hua Nu Tao's expression finally changed, and a roar of shock and anger came from inside the mecha.
He was an expert in snow escape techniques and mecha, but completely ignorant of sealing techniques.
The Land of Snow has never had a Jinchuriki, and sealing techniques, being an unorthodox ninjutsu, are simply not within his research scope.
This alone sealed his fate.
"Will it work?"
Feng Hua Xiaoxue clung to Xiao Li's back, her palms sweating with nervousness.
All she could see was the interplay of light and shadow on the battlefield, with raging waves of wind and rain attacking Jiraiya and Tsunade relentlessly. It seemed as if they were gaining the upper hand, showing no sign of defeat whatsoever.
"We've already won."
Yun An rolled her eyes at her, her tone tinged with disdain.
Feng Hua Xiaoxue was stunned.
She looked left and right, and no matter how she looked at it, the battle seemed to be at a stalemate, with no sign of victory.
Seeing the confident expressions on Yun An and the others' faces, my worries eased a little.
Perhaps... we really did win?
After all, these ninja masters shouldn't lie, right?
Feng Hua Xiaoxue thought this so naively.
If Yun An knew what she was thinking, she would probably be so angry she wouldn't know whether to laugh or cry.
This princess really loves to daydream.
……
"Konoha, the Land of Snow... There's such a small country in the ninja world."
Inside the office, Orochimaru raised a faint eyebrow, his tone carrying a hint of casual doubt.
His face wore a gentle smile as warm as the winter sun, which shone brightly, causing the Hokage advisors in the room—Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo Shimura, Shikaku Nara, Fugaku Uchiha, and Hiyori Hyuga—to exchange bewildered glances.
Orochimaru has been the Hokage for some time now, but in everyone's memory...
He has always been a symbol of coldness and mystery.
His gentle demeanor during this period has been somewhat unusual for many.
Upon hearing Orochimaru speak, Nara Shikaku acted swiftly and decisively, immediately taking out a map of the ninja world and pointing to an area covered in ice and snow on the edge, saying, "The Land of Snow is located on the edge of the ninja world, and its weather is as harsh as that of Amegakure."
Furthermore, its remote location, not a strategically important location, means that although it has several vassal states that are relatively well-developed, the gap between it and Konoha is like heaven and earth.
He paused, then added, "Most importantly, the Land of Snow only has a handful of Jonin in total."
Not to mention Konoha Village, even some of the village's most powerful ninja clans could easily defeat them.
Such small countries are countless in the ninja world, and under normal circumstances, they are not worth our much attention.
"Although they have a few Jonin to back them up, and their combat strength is barely presentable, small countries like theirs have never dared to provoke the Five Great Nations and super-large ninja villages."
Hiyori Hyuga picked up the conversation, speaking in a calm tone, "After these several Shinobi World Wars, the grudges and entanglements between the five great ninja villages and the five great nations have not yet been resolved. We are already too busy dealing with our old enemies to have any extra energy to devote to these small countries."
It's a complete waste of manpower; the cost-effectiveness is too low.
But the current situation is clearly different.
With the arrival of Yun'an, Jiraiya, Tsunade, and the others in that remote border country, the situation had already undergone a subtle change.
Orochimaru chuckled, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, his tone carrying a hint of approval: "It seems that Advisor Yun'an, as well as Jiraiya and Tsunade, two of the Three Legendary Sannin, did not simply go out to play and enjoy themselves."
Even though they were far away on the edge of the ninja world, they still devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the village. This kind of ninja way is something that all Konoha comrades should emulate and learn from.
He looked at the advisors, his smile still gentle: "Teacher, and my fellow advisors, what are your thoughts?"
Several advisors were startled by his smile and couldn't help but raise their hands slightly, feeling that his warm, sunny smile was rather dazzling.
"Ha ha ha ha."
Nara Shikaku broke the awkward silence with a few dry laughs, dispelling the stagnant atmosphere in the room. "The Land of Snow is now interested in attaching itself to the Land of Fire, especially wanting to become a vassal of Konoha."
As a result, the power structure of the ninja world, with its one country and one village, is likely to undergo subtle changes.
He turned to look at Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was seated at the head of the table, and asked with his hands clasped, "What is your opinion on this, teacher?"
The advisors tacitly refrained from offering their opinions first, and Orochimaru, seeing this, also turned his gaze to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand, looking quite magnanimous: "This old codger of mine has long since retired to the second line. Now Konoha belongs to Orochimaru."
I have always supported your decisions.
"If there's any need for my old bones, a trip to the Land of Snow wouldn't be out of the question."
"Okay, it's settled then."
As soon as Hiruzen Sarutobi finished speaking, Orochimaru immediately chimed in, his swift and decisive response leaving Hiruzen Sarutobi momentarily stunned.
Looking at his disciple's gentle smile, he was momentarily dumbfounded. He couldn't believe that he had raised such a "decisive" disciple, which made him "grateful" for him.
