Chapter 660 Negotiation
The Kingdom of Rain, the City of Six Paths.
Orochimaru led the team into the city and was quickly received by the Ninja Sect.
After all, the Ninja Sect is the official ninja force of the Land of Rain. Before Orochimaru and the others came, Sarutobi Hiruzen had contacted the Ninja Sect and expressed his intention to solve the problem through negotiation.
However, the Konoha ninjas of the negotiation team did not relax.
They knew that their demands were a little too much for the Ninja Sect, and their purpose meant that this negotiation would not be easy.
Considering that Orochimaru and the others were tired from traveling long distances, Ninja first took them to the reception area to rest and explained the specific time of the negotiation meeting.
After resting for a while, Orochimaru called the members of the negotiation team together for a meeting to re-emphasize some things that needed attention.
"The attitude must be tough and show the momentum of our strongest ninja village." Orochimaru said.
If you want Soyoujie to agree to the conditions, you must put enough pressure on him.
So even if Konoha cannot easily send troops, they still have to show that if you dare not agree, I will directly send large troops to kill you.
“I don't know if the Ninja sect in its original history was destroyed for this reason.” Zhishui thought in his mind.
From the history that Yamato knows in the future, in addition to Mozuki's death, there are three major events worth noting: the Nine-Tails Rebellion that caused heavy losses to Konoha, the cruel Uchiha genocide, and the lawless evil Akatsuki that brought disaster to the ninja world. organize.
According to their calculations, Mu Yue's death should have been changed.
For the remaining three things, their thoughts are that they should try their best to change them if they can, so that they will have fewer regrets in the future.
With the Night of the Nine Tails and the genocide of the Uchiha clan, Shisui and the others all had ideas and were taking actions, but the evil Akatsuki organization could not figure out how to change it, and they were temporarily unable to change it.
There are many reasons. One of the very practical reasons is that many things are inconvenient when you are not in the same country.
The other thing is that this matter is extremely complicated.
Before the establishment of the Ninja Sect, Yahiko and the others established the Akatsuki Organization and worked for peace in the Land of Rain. The Akatsuki Organization in this period was undoubtedly a kind-hearted ninja organization.
After the establishment of the Ninja Sect, Yahiko Nagato became a disciple of Soyousuke, and all the Akatsuki organization joined the Ninja sect. The Kingdom of Rain temporarily no longer has the Akatsuki organization as a ninja organization. This is the current reality.
In the future where Naruto and the others live, the Akatsuki organization is a completely evil ninja organization that not only robs tailed beasts, but also kills people wantonly.
Shisui and the others speculated based on the known information that the birth of the evil Akatsuki organization in later generations was most likely caused by the collapse of the Ninja sect during its development.
But Shisui and the others are just a few Konoha jonins with some strength now, and they have no ability to influence the existence and demise of ninja forces like the Ninja Sect.
What's even more terrible is that it is Konoha that is in conflict with the Ninja Sect.
As Konoha ninjas, don't they help Konoha to stand on the side of the Ninja Sect?
The mission came suddenly, and Shisui didn't even have time to discuss it with Kakashi and the others before he was sent to the Land of Rain.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Ninja ninja arrived at the reception desk on time and took the Konoha negotiation team to the Ninja meeting room.
After arriving at the building, the Ninja Negotiation Team that had completed their assembly met the Konoha Negotiation Team.
The Ninja who led the way stopped and gave a brief introduction to the Ninja Negotiation Team.
Orochimaru took this opportunity to look at the ninjas of the Ninja Negotiation Team.
The leader is Kakuzu, the second-in-command of the Ninja Sect.
General leaders will not personally participate in such negotiations, and having Kakuzu participate is enough to show that the Ninja Sect attaches great importance to this matter.
In addition to Kakuzu, Orochimaru discovered that Nagato, the number one genius in the ninja world, was also there.
“It's better to meet him than to be famous. He is indeed a ninja who was given the title of Sannin by Hanzo. His aura is extraordinary.” Kakuzu said with a smile.
"Nowhere can you compare to Kakuto-senpai. When you became famous in the ninja world, you had not yet completed your studies at the ninja school. It is an unexpected blessing to be able to talk with your senior today." Orochimaru mocked back calmly.
If it was Hanzo from before, then what Kakuzu said could be regarded as a compliment.
But later Hanzo betrayed his trust and was defeated by Sosuke again, and now the location is still in the Kingdom of Rain, which is obviously a mockery of the three of them for not defeating Hanzo back then.
So Orochimaru naturally did not praise him for becoming famous early, but scolded him for being an old man.
Kakuzu was not annoyed and walked towards the conference room calmly.
Orochimaru didn't say anything more and led the team into the conference room.
Shisui originally wanted to sit in the middle of the long side of the conference table. He was too young and had little qualifications.
Before he could walk over, Orochimaru stopped him and placed him on his left side.
Although Shisui was not very clear about Orochimaru's intention, he still sat down as ordered. After all, Orochimaru was the captain.
"According to our investigation, our former Hokage assistant of Konoha was killed by Sosuke, the leader of the Noble Sect, during a friendly visit to the Rain Ninja Village. Does the Ninja Sect want to start a war with Konoha?" Orochimaru struck preemptively, He asked with a cold face.
Although Shimura Danzo went to the Rain Ninja Village privately, in negotiations, he had to say something that was beneficial to him.
From the moment Sarutobi Hiruzen decided to resolve the problem through negotiation, Shimura Danzo was no longer acting privately, but a "friendly visit" endorsed by Konoha officials.
Kakuzu almost laughed out loud when he heard Orochimaru's words, and carried out the assassination in a friendly manner, right?
“So carrying out an assassination mission in Konoha is also considered a friendly visit? This is the first time I know this.” Kakuzu smiled and his expression gradually turned serious.
“You in Konoha don't know why Shimura Danzo was killed? He tried to assassinate our leader. Fortunately, our leader was more skilled and killed Shimura Danzo instead, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.”
"Whether the Ninja sect goes to war with Konoha or not depends on Konoha!"
If Kakuzu was present, he would definitely stop Soyousuke from killing Shimura Danzo, but now that the matter has come to this, Soyousuke also said that he has the strength to protect the Ninja clan, so of course there is no need to give Konoha face, it is done.
Orochimaru frowned slightly, feeling a little surprised.
The attitude of the Ninja Sect is too tough, and it is a bit outrageous.
A ninja organization with only a few hundred ninjas. Even if you include the Rain Ninja Village, the number of ninjas will not exceed 2,000. How can you have the courage to challenge a behemoth like Konoha?
Not only are the number of ninjas in Konoha able to crush the Ninja sect, but the quality of the ninjas is also far superior to that of a small force like the Ninja sect. It can be said to be crushing them in all directions.
Orochimaru was thinking rapidly, and Kakuzu's tougher attitude than expected disrupted his negotiation plan.
He originally wanted to use force to force others to submit, but Kakuzu's performance seemed to be unafraid of going to war with Konoha.
This is difficult to do, because Orochimaru cannot really declare war on the Ninja Sect on behalf of Konoha. He is not qualified, and his mission does not allow him to do so.
"Oh, it seems that the Ninja Sect has been prepared for a long time." Orochimaru did not remain silent while thinking.
Silence at this time means cowardice. Even if the negotiation breaks down, you must not be cowardly.
"Konoha is already prepared, right? Our ninja sect has been the victim of this matter from beginning to end." Kakuzu sneered. Orochimaru's brows furrowed even more.
“Really, our current Hokage Assistant Hanyu Mozuki of Konoha witnessed Sosuke trying his best to kill Shimura Danzo, as if he was worried about leaving anyone alive.”
Nagato:…
This will be a bit of torture for him in a sense.
"If you continue to distort the facts and evade, there will be no need to continue today's negotiations." Kakuzu vaguely sensed Orochimaru's bottom line.
Although Orochimaru said harshly, Orochimaru has not turned against Kakuzu with such a tough attitude. It is very likely that Orochimaru does not want to start a war.
"If the Ninja Sect continues to be so insincere, there is really no need to continue the negotiation. I will truthfully report the Ninja Sect's attitude to the Hokage." Orochimaru said calmly.
"Konoha is willing to give opportunities to neutral organizations like the Ninja Sect, but Konoha will not always give them opportunities."
The attitude of the Ninja Sect was really weird, and Orochimaru estimated that this mission would most likely fail.
"Since the words have come to this point, let's stop beating around the bush and be honest." Seeing that Orochimaru was about to break the pot, Kakuzu decided to ask clearly.
"Since you Konoha sent people to negotiate first, you probably don't want a war. What exactly do you want? Let's make it clear directly."
"A life is worth a life. If Soyousuke commits suicide, Konoha will just pretend it didn't happen." Orochimaru thought for a while and said the request directly.
With Kakuzu's attitude, normal negotiations are impossible. If we don't talk about it, there will be no chance to talk about it.
Hurrah!
A terrifying aura erupted from Nagato, and the powerful chakra set off a strong wind that blew away all the information on the negotiation table.
Even though he knew that even if "Soyousuke" committed suicide, Mu Yue would be fine, Nagato still had an unknown fire in his heart.
This reminded him of the memory of being trapped and killed by Hanzo when the Ninja Sect was founded.
At that time, Hanzo was aloof and tried to use the Ninja Sect as a threat to make Mu Yue commit suicide.
At that time, Nagato could not control the reincarnation eye and was not very strong. He still cannot forget the feeling of powerlessness when Mu Yue was injured while trying to save him.
Now Orochimaru actually tried to force Muyue to commit suicide again, which made Nagato not angry.
“It's much stronger than before.”
Zhisui regarded Nagato as his imaginary enemy and found that even if he used the Mangekyo Sharingan, it would be difficult for him to defeat Nagato.
Because his Tsukuyomi may not have a good effect on Nagato, whose eyes are the legendary eyes of immortals.
"What a strong chakra." Orochimaru was surprised. He actually felt a strong threat in the young man Nagato.
Who is he? He is one of Konoha's top fighters. How old is Nagato? Fifteen years old? Still sixteen?
Horrid, Orochimaru could only use this word to describe Nagato's ninja talents.
The title of the number one genius in the ninja world, which seems to be praised at a glance, seems to be quite well-deserved for Nagato.
"It seems that the Ninja Sect has indeed been prepared." Orochimaru looked at Nagato deeply and said.
“Nagato has a good laugh, and he can't listen to jokes that are too vulgar, so please forgive me.” Kakuzu Yuyou said.
Negotiation? Talk about a hammer!
No one in the Ninja Sect could be without Soyousuke, let alone Soyousuke himself, Kakuzu would never agree to such a stupid condition.
"So I can understand that the Ninja clan refuses to solve the problem through negotiation?" Orochimaru asked.
"As long as Konoha's demands remain unchanged, there is no need to talk." Kakuzu was too lazy to talk to Orochimaru.
“Why don't you report to Sosuke first?”
Logically speaking, in such a big diplomatic incident, the central government does not have the final say.
“You are really broad in Konoha.” Kakuzu did not answer Orochimaru's question.
At this point, the negotiation could no longer proceed. Kakuzu and Orochimaru stood up one after another, and their subordinates also stood up and left the conference room.
Orochimaru did not return to the reception area of the Ninja Sect, but directly led the team back to Konoha.
It's not that I'm worried about the Ninja Sect's evil intentions to keep them here. If the two armies are fighting and don't cut off the envoys, the lives of the negotiators will generally not be endangered.
Orochimaru felt that Ninja's attitude was too strange and he needed to report it to Sarutobi Hiruzen as soon as possible and then conduct an investigation.
On the way, Orochimaru did not forget to comfort Shisui to increase his favorability, saying that there is no need to worry about the failure of this kind of mission, and the fault does not lie with those of them who perform the mission.
It's a pity that Shisui didn't have the heart to listen to Orochimaru's comfort. He was thinking about the Ninja Sect.
"If this continues, the Ninja Sect will be destroyed, and the remaining ninjas may form the evil Akatsuki organization. What should we do..." Shisui fell into deep thought.
He didn't know why the Ninja clan could be so tough, but no matter what, the Ninja clan couldn't be Konoha's opponent. The strength gap between the two sides was too big.
The history of later generations can also prove that the ending of the Ninja Sect was not happy. Neither Naruto nor Yamato mentioned the Ninja Sect as a force.
If Nagato and the others were evil themselves, this would be easy to handle, just take action in advance and nip them in the cradle.
But the Ninja Sect is not evil. On the contrary, the Ninja Sect is a well-received ninja organization in the Land of Rain and the Ninja World. This makes people very confused.
Do we have to watch a group of good, peace-loving people go through hardships and eventually turn into terrorists?
"Perhaps I should confess to Teacher Muyue about the things that will change the future." Shisui thought.
Mu Yue's attitude towards the future is very subtle. She refused to seal the memory of Namikaze Minato, but never asked Uzumaki Naruto about their future.
Kakashi and the others couldn't figure out what Mu Yue was thinking, and in addition, the future information was secretly asked without Mu Yue's knowledge, so they disciples had been working hard silently without Mu Yue's knowledge.
The future has been changed a lot by them now. Even if Mu Yue has opinions, she cannot go back to the past and change history.
Furthermore, Zhisui felt that with Mu Yue's character, he probably wouldn't want to see a kind-hearted ninja organization turn into a black one.
As the Hokage's assistant, Mu Yue can do much more than Shisui and the others.
Just being able to express opinions at high-level meetings is something that Shisui and the others cannot do no matter what.
Of course, if Mu Yue fails to prevent this from happening, Shisui will eventually find a way to nip the evil Akatsuki organization in the cradle.
He is not familiar with the Ninja ninjas, but Asuma, who will be killed by the Akatsuki organization, is his friend.
