Something's wrong with this Hinata in Konoha

Chapter 263 You are more suitable than me
In the end, those ninjas from the Ghost Lantern clan walked away peacefully...

In a sense, they can be regarded as experiencing a peak of life before death!
There was only one jounin in the group, and the others were just ordinary chuunin. However, the one who dealt with them was one of the three ninjas who was recognized as the strongest among the Five Shadows today and was famous in the ninja world ten years ago!

This deck is considered full.

It's a pity that this great achievement cannot be spread - because Hinata Inaba didn't let anyone escape, it is destined that nothing that happened tonight will be spread to the world.

Meeting Orochimaru here tonight was completely unexpected.

Hinata Inaba never thought that the prince of the Daming Palace of Water Country was actually Orochimaru in disguise!
It wasn't until he caught a venomous snake hiding among the coastal rocks that he realized that things might not be simple.

Fortunately, Orochimaru had no intention of taking action after discovering him. Although he guessed his identity at a glance, Orochimaru still cooperated very well to help him trap and kill these ghost lamp tribesmen, instead of choosing to become his own enemy.

This made Hinata Inaba very curious, "Senior Orochimaru, are you helping the Daimyo of the Land of Water now? Or are you here to cause trouble?"

Orochimaru licked his lips again out of habit and smiled slightly.

Hinata Inaba is still willing to call him senpai, which makes Uncle Snake very happy.

However, Hinata Inaba's strength and identity are no longer what they used to be. This also makes Uncle Snake very cautious. He always keeps a distance of at least five meters from Hinata Inaba and has more than one snake at his feet at all times.

The two people who are talking happily now are actually secretly on guard.

But on the surface, Orochimaru remained amiable. Orochimaru smiled and explained: "Haha, I naturally have some purpose here. As for the prince of Daming Mansion, it is just a layer of identity I use to disguise myself."

I understand, this is just a vest, Orochimaru still has his own plans.

"So where is the real prince of Daming Palace?" Hinata Inaba asked again.

"I kept one-fifth. What, Inaba-kun, do you want it? I can give you a little. That's just an ordinary person and has no research value."

Hinata Inaba's mouth twitched.

It's okay to leave a fifth.

In other words, the real prince was already dead.

Killing people, and then taking their identity to cause trouble, this is really Orochimaru's standard style.

"No need, I just need to make sure that you and that daimyo are not of the same mind."

Hearing Hinata Inaba's words, Orochimaru couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, looking very interested.

"It seems that Mr. Inaba has his own purpose for coming here this time. Can I ask what you want to do? Maybe we still have a chance to cooperate.

Now I want to see some of Kirigakure's long-established blood inheritance boundaries. What is Inaba-kun's purpose?If you and I join forces, maybe there is a chance to destroy Kirigakure Village.Haha, this is really exciting to think about. "

Hinata Inaba habitually complained, "Why, are you still planning to design a Kirigakure collapse plan?"

Unexpectedly, Orochimaru actually seemed very interested and seemed to be enjoying himself.

"Inaba-kun, are you also interested?"

"……No."

Unexpectedly, Hinata Inaba refused.This actually made Orochimaru a little stunned.

"Are Inaba-kun worried about the success rate? I don't think you need to worry about that. The danger Kirigakure encountered this time is far greater than imagined. The Daming Palace is determined to replace the Mizukage. This may be the end of the world. Kirigakure’s best chance.”

Hinata Inaba shook his head and said: "No, why do you think I must want to destroy Kirigakure?"

"Aren't you the Hokage now? Do you plan to miss such a good opportunity to destroy a ninja village that has been at war? I remember Inaba-kun, you are not the indecisive character of Hiruzen-sensei."

I always feel like you are very resentful towards me for snatching Sarutobi Hiruzen's head - Hinata Inaba looked at Orochimaru's current aggressive attitude and complained silently in his heart.

"No, it's not because I'm hesitant, and I really feel that there is no need to destroy Kirigakure. It's you, Orochimaru-senpai, you should probably change the fixed thinking that you were indoctrinated in the past when you were at the root. It doesn't mean that outside of Konoha All ninjas are enemies."

Orochimaru frowned a little.

The meaning of these words seemed to mean that he was still at the mercy of Danzo, which made him feel slightly uncomfortable.

But he didn't rush to refute, but wanted to hear what Hinata Inaba had to say.

In this regard, Uncle Snake is much more humble than Danzo and Hiruzen. Although he is also conceited, he is at least willing to listen to ideas that are different from his own.

Hyuga Inaba explained: "Danzo's diplomatic thinking was always an extremely primitive and crude binary opposition. The entire ninja world was divided into two categories: Konoha and the enemy.

To put it nicely, this is called being an enemy of the world, but to put it worse, it means being brainless. After more than ten years of unremitting efforts, Konoha's hatred in the entire ninja world has finally become extremely stable. Whenever there is a war in the ninja world, we must be the first. A target of concentrated fire, Orochimaru-senpai, you yourself have served as a frontline commander on two battlefields in a war, so you should have deep feelings about this, right? "

Orochimaru was said to be somewhat silent.

At the beginning, Sarutobi-sensei insisted that he was unwilling to give him the position of Hokage. To be honest, Orochimaru was somewhat resentful. He was actually not convinced by Namikaze Minato at the beginning, but now, the newly appointed Fifth Hokage seems to have given him an opening. Got some completely different perspectives!

"So?" Orochimaru asked proactively, "Inaba-kun, do you really believe in the peace treaty you signed?"

"Of course you don't believe that. It's useful to believe that piece of paper. You might as well believe that I am the Sage of Six Paths." Hinata Inaba made a joke, although Orochimaru only felt a little cold...

“But even if we don’t consider becoming unbreakable allies, we and Kirigakure Village have other ways of getting along.

First of all, the Kingdom of Water is alone overseas. Even if we destroy Kirigakure Village, Konoha will not be able to take over all the missions here in the foreseeable future, because we do not have the ability to build a new village overseas, and require the Kingdom of Water to It is unrealistic for the country's clients to come to Konoha Village by boat to issue tasks every time.

Therefore, there is no doubt that we will not get any direct benefits from destroying Kirigakure Village. On the contrary, it is best to retain a Kirigakure Village that is weak, controllable, extremely dependent on Konoha or the Country of Fire, and unable to move towards the mainland. A choice that is in line with Konoha's current interests.

If on this basis, we can also obtain a source of funds that has completely lost the internal funds of the Water Country, Kirigakure will be highly dependent on the funding of the Fire Country from now on. Based on the Water Country, Kirigakure will be more inclined to the Fire Country in all aspects. Village, that would be a more wonderful result. "

Orochimaru pondered for a long time after hearing this, and then concluded: "In other words, you do not plan to be an ally with Kirigakure, but plan to develop a relationship between master and puppet?"

"You can roughly understand it this way." Hinata Inaba nodded.

At that moment, Orochimaru sighed deeply.

"Then it seems that I must admit that you may really be more suitable to be Hokage than me."

Hinata Inaba smiled slightly, thinking that you finally understood my advanced concepts and thoughts, Uncle Snake.

However, what Orochimaru actually thinks in his heart is: A new generation will replace the old one. You have a dirtier heart than I do, Inaba-kun!
