Chapter 141 Oonoki’s conspiracy!
After returning to the northern defense line, Ōnoki announced the course of the battle.
Yes.
He took the initiative to expose the fact that he failed in the pursuit and was injured.
What a cunning old man!
This is clearly an attempt to flatter Tang Ping.
A shadow-level warrior who was only in his teens could even injure himself when he was being chased. Who wouldn't be afraid of this?
The key point is that Dou Ping's last name is "Uchiha", and he had publicly recruited before.
Gee!
I don’t know if the Konoha high-level officials can sleep well.
It seems that Ohnoki had already prepared this backup plan.
That would be best if the attack was successful, but if it failed, we must find a way to sow discord between Tang Ping and the village leaders.
There was no such plan originally.
But who can blame Konoha for the White Fang incident?
With such a great example, it would be strange not to think of this.
This is an open conspiracy!
Because what Oonoki said was all true, without any exaggeration.
Therefore, before Doheito returned to Mount Kikyo, the village had already reacted to Ōnoki's series of actions.
Hokage's office!
"Hiruzen!"
Danzo opened the office door and walked in eagerly.
"Hurry up and send someone to arrest Uchiha Douping, it will be too late!"
As soon as he came in, he shouted at Sarutobi Hiruzen who was smoking.
If you didn't know the truth, from his tone, you would think that Dohei had led the southwestern ninja army of Kikyo Mountain to rebel.
"Danzo, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen shouted.
He didn't understand what Danzo was going to do today.
He knew that the two of them were not good enough to deal with him, but he couldn't just arrest a ninja army commander, a Kage-level strongman, right?
At the same time, he must make his attitude clear.
That is, he has great respect for the ninjas in the village themselves, and if anything really happens, it must be Danzo's doing.
Just like those ninjas of the Root Clan, he never knew.
All I can say is that Sarutobi Hiruzen knows how to pass the buck, no wonder he has such a good reputation in the village.
"I'm talking nonsense. Ohnoki even offered the position of Tsuchikage to recruit that brat, and even promoted him so much. Who knows if they have reached any agreement in private!"
Danzo retorted angrily.
He really didn't have much selfish motives this time, he was doing it for the good of the village.
If the other party really betrays the village and joins the Iwagakure Village, it will be a major blow to Konoha.
Therefore, it is better to strike first before the other party betrays the village.
By the way, you can also get the method of practicing Sage Mode.
The Sage Mode of the three holy places is not easy to obtain, because unless you raze the holy places to the ground, you can't get it at all.
Not only have the existence time of several holy places been measured in thousands of years, their strength is no weaker than that of the Great Ninja Village.
The most important thing is that the locations of the holy places are all extremely harsh and far away from the Ninja Realm, so there is no way to attack them.
This is also the reason why no one is trying to use the Sage Mode even though they know how powerful it is.
But Tang Ping is different.
Although we don’t know how he mastered the Sage Mode, he definitely does not belong to the three holy places.
This naturally makes people extremely coveted.
It was because he was too strong, otherwise he might have 'disappeared'.
Danzo had long coveted the Sage Mode, so how could he not be tempted now that he had the chance?
As for the issue of strength?
His own root strength is not enough, but doesn’t he have a village?
In his eyes, the power of the village is his own power. Isn't it normal to use his own power to seek the Sage Mode?
There is indeed nothing wrong with the logic.
This is also the reason why Danzo demanded the bloodlines of the major ninja clans without any hesitation.
As the future Hokage, is there anything wrong with letting these ninjas work for you?
All of this is to make Konoha great again.
"Uchiha Dohei refused on the spot, and can we believe what Oonoki said?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen defended him.
However, what he didn't notice was that his voice was a little shaky.
Because the position of the 'shadow' of the five major ninja villages is the pursuit of all ninjas.
When you ask those ninja school students who haven't graduated yet what their future dreams are, most of them will say "I want to be a Kage."
Since Ohnoki offered this price, how could he not doubt whether the other party was tempted?
If that were all, it would be fine.
The two also spent some time together (fighting) in private.
This made Sarutobi Hiruzen even more uneasy.
He is not of a broad-minded character.
Otherwise, the White Fang incident would not have happened, and there would even be the Hyuga incident and the Uchiha clan extermination in the future. Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen like this, Danzo's eyes flashed with joy.
He knew the other person's character well, and even though he said that, a seed of doubt arose in his heart, which was good news for him.
"Even if you try to stop me, Hiruzen, I will prove to you that the brat has colluded with Ōnoki!"
Danzo said as he turned and left.
Now that we've said hello, we can take action.
"No, I won't allow you to mess around!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke up to stop him.
Danzo said as he walked to the door.
"Hiruzen, you will regret this!"
"Danzo, I am the Hokage!"
After the two of them performed a famous scene, Danzo slammed the door and left.
Next comes the root's 'private' actions.
If he succeeds, that would be the best. If he fails, it will be his own fault and has nothing to do with Sarutobi Hiruzen.
The two of them have such good chemistry.
And the other side!
Tang Ping did not return to Kikyo Mountain, but went to "Tanggu" first to confirm the development of the holy land before returning.
Normally he was being watched, so it wasn't easy for him to leave for such a long time.
It has been almost a year since the hibiscus tree was planted, and the area has changed a lot.
It directly changed from a yellow sand valley to a valley with scattered greenery.
The point is that the hibiscus tree has grown a lot.
Normally speaking, it would take thousands of years for Tanggu to reach the level of the three holy places.
However, since the growth rate of the Fusang tree is so exaggerated, it should be able to catch up with the accumulation of the three holy places in just a few hundred years.
And this is assuming that technology does not advance. If it continues to improve, the time will only continue to shrink.
Tanggu, the 'Fourth Holy Land', is extremely important to Tang Ping, so he cares so much about it.
Of course, this time I'll also mention 'hot springs'.
This time he brought out a bucket of hot spring water.
Yes, you heard that right.
It's a bucket, not a bottle.
This is about one-tenth of the amount accumulated in this year.
When Dohei enters Sage Mode each time, he consumes at most 100 milliliters of hot spring water, so this bucket of hot spring water is naturally not for his own use.
Use it in experiments!
Tang Ping discovered a special effect of the hot spring.
Promote plant growth!
Of course, this effect has no effect on the hibiscus tree itself.
But it works very well for ordinary plants, and the more ordinary the plants, the better the effect.
The experiment that Tang Ping is currently conducting, if successful, will allow the United Fruit Company to fly into the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun.
Hybrid rice!
Those who understand know what this means.
Indeed, Tangping did not have the instruments and conditions of later generations.
But he has a problem!
Knowing the correct scientific research route and having blood that can ensure fusion and balance are the two biggest plug-ins.
In the past, it took time to slowly cultivate plants.
But now with hot springs, the cultivation time can be shortened countless times.
A bucket of hot spring water was enough for him to produce a large number of new seeds.
Combined with agricultural puppets such as the 'wooden ox', planting, harvesting, fertilizing... can be guaranteed and it will immediately bring some small harvest 'shock' to the ninja world.
As for Konoha's affairs, that is something F4 needs to worry about, so he naturally won't take it too seriously.
So if you can slack off, do it; if you can have fun, do it.
After secretly sending the hot spring back to the orphanage at the starting point of the River Kingdom and letting Honglian use it, Dohei returned to Kikyo Mountain.
Since he was delayed for some time, the delegation naturally returned to Konoha long ago.
At the same time, the Southwestern Ninja Army also agreed to annex that group of family ninjas, but proposed conditions for the exchange.
Appoint a deputy commander!
It’s just that this person’s identity made Tang Ping feel a little bit like howling.
Shimura Setsuna!
It was the elite jonin who had caused trouble for him before and was also a member of Sarutobi Shinnosuke's group of subordinates.
He is considered the younger generation leader of the Shimura clan.
You don't need to think about what the other party is planning to do by letting him be your deputy general.
It must be with bad intentions.
But Tang Ping doesn't care.
The bigger the fist, the more powerful it is. The opponent's strength is just so-so. He can kill him with one hand. As long as he doesn't give him the chance to cause trouble, there is no need to worry at all.
The point is that he is not like White Fang, who values the village more than anything else.
If he really gets mad at me, it's not impossible for him to go to Konoha and 'carry rice' directly.
Before he could rest for a few days, an order came.
