Water bears at the beginning, wet bone forest eating old people

Chapter 324 No One Can Leave With a Scent

The first floor of the Konoha Hokage Building.

This was the pre-war meeting room and also the reception room for foreign guests.

The conference room was full of people at this time.

Orochimaru held down the brim of the Hokage's hat with one hand, leaned on his arm, and quietly watched the ninjas who entered the venue one after another.

Behind him, the four elders of Konoha formed a semicircle and sat in their respective seats.

Hiruzen had a warm face and looked at the ninjas of Konoha with a smile, greeting everyone in a very friendly manner.

Danzo was still the same, with a stern face, as if he disliked everyone, but no one greeted him.

Utane Koharu and Mitokado En were as transparent as ever, both of them were resting with their eyes closed, but one of them was crossing his arms and the other was looking up, and they both had a strong aura, which was not a disgrace to the Konoha elders.

In the first row at the bottom sat the patriarchs of the major Konoha families, and the two seats in the middle were occupied by the patriarchs of the two major Konoha families, Hyuga Hiashi and Uchiha Fugaku.

As soon as Fugaku sat down, Hiashi nodded to him politely.

Fugaku also nodded and responded briefly. This courtesy was enough for both parties to do.

The Ino-Shika-Cho clan can unite and advance and retreat together, but the Hyuga and Uchiha clans absolutely cannot. It's just like how Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen can't and cannot sit at the same table. If the two largest clans unite, they will not be able to sit firmly on the top.

On both sides are the patriarchs of the Ino-Shika-cho, Inuzuka, Aburame, Kurama and other families.

Behind the heads of each major family, there are usually the next jonin members who may succeed the family head, including some jonin or chunin from small families with considerable strength.

For example, Gekko Hayate is only a Chunin, but he has also managed to get to a certain position. Mitarashi Anko is also looking around and shaking her head in the crowd.

Of course, Jiraiya, the captain of the jonin squad, Tsunade, the head of the medical department, and Minato Namikaze, the principal of the ninja school, all have separate seats.

There is also a separate seat for the director of the Konoha Orphanage, but Orochimaru did not ask Nono Yakushi to attend such a meeting. After all, in addition to being the director of the orphanage, she has other identities and it is not convenient for her to show up in front of people from other villages.

Hiruko sat in the last row and participated in the meeting as the only Genin.

On his left is an unknown Chunin who seems to have good talent, and on his right is a ninja who looks quite tough - Morino Ibiki.

However, Morino Ibiki's body was a little stiff at this time. When Hiruhu sat next to him, he felt like ants were crawling on his body and felt uncomfortable all over.

Beiluhu was staring at the scar on his face, while the unknown ninja on the other side was looking at Beiluhu curiously.

For the masters of Konoha, Obito is a big trouble, but for the ninjas who are not so strong, Obito is a more mysterious existence.

"Hello, Mr. Beiliuhu?"

"Um...ah? Do we know each other?"

"No, no, I'm just a little curious. There are rumors that you and the Fourth Daime-sama are from the same era. Is that true?"

"Aha, come to think of it, Orochimaru was indeed my boss for a while, but that was in the past. Now I'm just an insignificant Genin~"

Beiluohu waved his hand.

There are not many people in Konoha who can call Orochimaru by his name. The unknown Chunin immediately looked at Obito with stars in his eyes.

This really tortured Morino Ibiki.

Brother, if someone talks to you, why don’t you look at them? Why are you staring at me?

This torment did not last long.

After the Konoha ninjas arrived one after another, Orochimaru waved to Nara Shikaku.

As the Hokage's assistant, Nara Shikaku does more and more comprehensive work than any so-called secret techniques.

Like a host of ceremonies, Shikaku announced the theme of today's meeting - alliance negotiations with the Cloud Ninja.

Afterwards, Shikaku announced the entrance, and the Cloud Shinobi delegation walked in from the door on the other side.

Orochimaru was very cunning. He only arranged three seats for the Cloud Ninja delegation, and placed them right between the elders' platform and the Konoha ninjas, surrounded and facing him.

There were no well-known ninjas in the Cloud Ninja delegation. Apart from the leading ninja named Troy, the other two were only Chunins.

Short lavender hair and a beige scarf.

Troy is quite famous in the Cloud Village, not only because of his strong strength, but also because he possesses a very special bloodline limit - magnetic escape.

The strength of the ninjutsu of magnetic escape itself is not very high, but after finding the ninja tools or other things that are suitable for you to operate, it will produce an effect that is greater than the sum of one and two.

The last ninja who used magnetic escape was the Third Kazekage of the Land of Wind, Haneda Zaemon!

Troy is also a master of magnetic escape, but he is better at using ninja tools.

This guy should have died on Mount Kikyo, but due to the strong intervention of Gu Zang, although many middle and lower-level ninjas died in the Cloud Ninja Village, there were almost no losses among the upper-level ninjas.

"Welcome the negotiation delegation from the Cloud Shinobi Village to Konoha. Everyone, please take a seat."

Shikaku greeted the three Troys on behalf of Orochimaru.

Even Troy is not worth enough to be welcomed by Orochimaru himself.

Troy had no reason to complain about this. He brought two Chunins with him and sat opposite Orochimaru under considerable pressure.

"Your Excellency the Fourth Hokage, the negotiations can begin now. We are here only for this matter."

Troy sat down and spoke quickly.

"Since this is an alliance negotiation, there must be a set of rules, priorities, and resource allocation. It's best to discuss this clearly in advance. I believe that you have all brought the sincerity of the Kumogakure Village."

Orochimaru took the initiative and easily lifted up the Cloud Ninja Village with just one sentence.

Troy immediately broke out in sweat, but he did not dare to be stage fright.

"Of course, the Fourth Raikage-sama has already explained some of this before setting out."

Taking out the scroll, Troy began to recite the indicators and data marked for him by the Fourth Generation Ai.

"...That's basically it. The assignment of tasks to the Land of Hot Springs still needs to be discussed after investigation. However, Lord Raikage means that Hot Spring Village must maintain its independence."

"Um......"

Orochimaru listened quietly, tapping the table rhythmically and slowly with his fingers.

When listening to others speak, there are generally two states.

The first is listening attentively, and the second is preparing to speak.

Orochimaru is obviously the second type.

"The Hokage shouldn't be solely responsible for Konoha's interests. Every Konoha compatriot has a responsibility. Since you have a responsibility, everyone, please tell me, are you able to accept the conditions proposed by the Kumogakure?"

"I disagree!"

Just as the crickets below were chattering, Beiluohu slammed the table and stood up.

"Who is that...Hirohu!?"

After Killer Bee and the other two returned to the Kumogakure, the Kumogakure were eager to dig out all the information about Hiruko.

So when Troy saw the short figure of Biluhu stand up from the last row and stand on the table, his heart suddenly tightened.

You can't be trying to pick a fight with me, we're in a meeting now!

"Biliuhu, do you have any ideas?"

Orochimaru asked with a raised corner of his mouth.

He became more and more fond of Beiluhu's existence.

To anyone, Obito might be a nuisance, but to Orochimaru, this guy is so good at stirring up trouble that no one can escape with it.

"Yes, I think..."
