"Then I'll pay you back"

Nara Suzaku couldn't help but speak again, but when he saw Shikaku's serious eyes, he swallowed the second half of his words alive.

"But this is also our last chance."

After a pause, Nara Shikaku looked in the direction of the Hidden Cloud Village ahead and said loudly:

"When I go this time, I represent Konoha itself.

"The best situation is that Lord Raikage is still hesitant. Then, faced with Orochimaru's murder of the Konoha envoy, Raikage will definitely not be able to turn a blind eye.

"At that time, the minister's life can be used as a bargaining chip to force the Fourth Raikage to make a 'choose one' route.

"If the Raikage finally chooses us, then their evil alliance will never be completed.

"In this situation, as Konoha's envoy, I have a great chance of surviving."

"But, what if Raikage him..."

Suzaku Nara interjected and asked.

"The second scenario is that the Raikage has made up his mind to form an evil alliance with Orochimaru. Then..."

Nara Shikaku immediately interrupted Suzaku's words and continued to talk to himself.

He paused for a moment, pondered for a moment, then raised his head again and said:

"Then, this also means that the pace of war can no longer be stopped.

"At the beginning of the war, Konoha's peace envoy died in the Hidden Cloud Village. This will have a huge impact on the morale of the two countries in the future war.

"Who has the right way? Who is capable? Who can win in heaven and earth?

"Everything will be at ease in people's hearts."

Nara Shikaku said slowly:

"The understanding of 'justice' between the two sides will also be nailed to the heart of every ninja in the ninja world at the cost of the envoy's life.

"At the same time, since it was Orochimaru's side, the place of death was in Kumogakure Ninja Village.

"Then, the alliance between the two of them will be buried in a wedge of mutual resentment from the very beginning."

To kill or not to kill is up to you.

Whether it's life or death, it's all good for Konoha.

At the same time, peace can also be achieved to a great extent.

This is a conspiracy.

Nara Suzaku, who is also from the Nara clan, is also very alert and quickly fully understood Shikaku's intentions.

"Then, let me go as an envoy and complete this feat for my Nara clan!"

Suzaku no longer objected, but asked to play the role of the one who entered the game.

"It's not about merit."

Nara Shikaku shook his head:

"The best ending would naturally be for the Raikage to terminate cooperation and continue to maintain peace for the ninja world.

"I once had a relationship with Raikage, although I know that this is not much of a friendship.

“However, as long as the Raikage’s intention to save peace can be increased even by one percentage point, it is worth our best efforts.

"And this is also the key reason why I can only go on the mission."

After hearing this, everyone was speechless.

"If the worst happens, then..."

Later, Lu Jiu made detailed arrangements for everyone regarding the arrangements for the flares and the subsequent work.

"Then, if I really can't come back, I'll leave Shikamaru's child to everyone."

Nara Shikaku lowered his voice, and as he spoke, he took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Nara Suzaku.

It reads "From Shikamaru himself."

"Clan leader."

After seeing this letter, Nara Suzaku understood everything.

It turns out that Nara Shikaku had probably started preparing for all the arrangements for today.

Afterwards, Nara Shikaku bowed deeply to everyone and walked towards the direction of the Hidden Cloud Village.

March 25th, Konoha's sixty-fifth year.

The Kingdom of Thunder is shrouded in clouds and mist, and the turbulent water hits the rocks and rushes like a roar.

Nara Shikaku, involved himself in the situation and laid out a conspiracy.

To the extent possible, strive for the greatest benefit for the situation of Konoha Hidden Ninja Village.

At this time, there were still twenty-seven days before everyone received the news of Yakushi Kabuto's death.

Chapter 209 Red Sand Scorpion

Pink and yellow smoke rose into the sky.

Between the clouds and mist, the unyielding soul returns to the sky.

The Fourth Raikage's face was gloomy. He silently looked at everything downstairs through the window that was shattered by the explosive tag.

He knew it clearly in his heart.

At this moment, the deal is done.

From then on, there was no turning back.

"It's all worth it."

Orochimaru appeared behind the Raikage and beckoned in a hoarse voice:

“A few years from now, the children of Kumogakure Ninja Village will be wandering in the land of Konoha, which is rich in products and has a pleasant climate.

"At that time, they will all thank you for your choice today."

In the market, several ninjas dressed in black quickly appeared, and they collected Nara Shikaku's body as quickly as possible.

The crowd dispersed, and it was as if everything had never happened.

"So, what is the truth about the death of the previous Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Bulubi?"

After a long silence, the Fourth Raikage Ai turned around and asked Orochimaru through gritted teeth.

"Ah? Then, weren't you personally involved in the sealing?"

A proud smile flashed in Orochimaru's eyes, but he pretended to be surprised and said:

"I heard that one of the Eight-Tails' horns was broken by you. It's really impressive."

"You know exactly what I'm asking!"

Raikage said angrily.

The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Brubi, is the cousin of the Fourth Raikage Ai and his first close partner.

Not long after the Third Ninja World War, the Eight-Tails in Bruybi's body suddenly went berserk, leading to his death.

This incident has always been an unspeakable pain in the heart of the Fourth Raikage.

In the previous negotiations, Orochimaru hinted at the other party.

It is said that the rampage of the Eight-Tails and the death of Bruybi were not simple accidents, but there are other hidden stories.

"Then, I should have said that after we successfully reunited in Konoha.

"At that time, I will naturally tell you all the truth you want to know."

Faced with the Raikage's anger, Orochimaru didn't take it to heart at all and just smiled grimly.

The hoarse voice echoed in the space, and the flames slowly ignited from Orochimaru's feet.

The man who walked with the snake finally accomplished everything he wanted to do.

Like smoke and dust, he disappeared into Yunyin Ninja Village.

-

Sunagakure Ninja Village, farewell at the entrance of the village.

Whether it was the Konoha delegation or the senior officials from Sunagakure who attended the farewell, everyone felt sincerely happy about the diplomatic results.

The team leader, Aburame Shiwei, was shaking hands and saying goodbye to every member of the Sand Village.

After this trip, he suddenly felt that things like diplomacy were not as difficult as he had imagined.

In the distance, Nara Shikamaru was running towards the village entrance.

For the past two days, he has been staying in the oasis where Ebizo and Grandma Chiyo live in seclusion, and no one knows what he is doing.

Looking behind him, there was no one in the smoke and dust.

Agent Kazekage Ma Ji couldn't help but feel a flash of disappointment in his heart.

Although he knew very well that it was absolutely impossible for those two elders to come out of the mountain again.

After all, even though such a major thing happened in the village, they still acted like it had nothing to do with them.

I and the senior officials in the village have gone to pray many times, but every time, they can only come back disappointed.

What's more, the one who went this time was an outsider from Konoha?

However, at that moment just now, when he saw Nara Shikamaru, Maki still held on to a bit of unrealistic expectations.

"Sorry everyone, I'm late."

Nara Shikamaru was panting, obviously he had been traveling for a long time.

Then, he lowered his voice and asked Aburame Shiwei beside him:
