Chapter 184 Departure to the Kingdom of Sound
The timeline matches perfectly, so this information is correct.
After confirming that the information was correct, Lei Ying's majestic body like an iron tower stood up again. Looking at his menacing look, everyone suddenly felt a bad feeling.
Just when Raikage was about to speak, Li Ke interrupted Raikage first.
"Brother, wait."
"What's up, Li Ke, this is an opportunity to destroy Orochimaru."
"Okay, that's good, but you can't send a large force to destroy it. Let's not talk about the internal problems of the Kingdom of Sound. Let's just say that the Kingdom of Thunder is going to attack the Kingdom of Sound in such a mighty way. It's just that we have no name, and we will not be able to do it in diplomacy. This caused dissatisfaction from all parties in the ninja world.
Secondly, as the army marches, it will have to cover a lot of roads. It not only has to pass through the Moon Country, but also bypass the Yu Country. The most important thing is to border the border with Konoha. What do you think about our big move? , what will Konoha think. "
Lei Ying was silent for a moment after hearing this. Although he was indeed reckless in doing things, it did not mean that he had no brains and he could also listen to other people's opinions.
It is indeed inappropriate to march an army.
"...You mean you can send a small group of troops for a sneak attack?"
"That's right, does a Sound Ninja Village require all the people from the Kingdom of Thunder to be dispatched?"
After hearing Li Ke's suggestion, the senior Yunyin people below couldn't help but nodded.
Obviously, sending a small force to hammer Orochimaru in the Sound Ninja Village is the most efficient and trouble-free method.
However, Orochimaru is known as the Sannin in Konoha, and he is also an S-level mission target in Kumogakure.
The team sent out should not be too weak, otherwise it would probably be just delivering food.
"How about I lead the Anbu Corps?"
Darui suggested as he looked at everyone.
However, his proposal was immediately refuted by Qianye Qi.
"No, the Anbu Corps is not only the elite force of our Cloud Hidden Village, but more importantly, it is also the Raikage's personal bodyguard. If they are not around, how can we ensure Raikage's safety?"
"Um...it seems like this, I was hasty."
Darui touched his head and smiled sheepishly.
At this time, Kirabi was sitting next to him, making strange movements with his hands and humming a strange note.
"Asshole, idiot, if I don't lead a team, I'm sure to beat Orochimaru until his nose is black and his face is swollen."
But as soon as Kirabi's voice came out, he was greeted by Raikage's stern scolding.
"No! Bi! You are not allowed to go anywhere, just stay well in the village. If you dare to sneak out, I will definitely beat you up!"
Kirabi suddenly wilted.
Neither the ANBU nor Kirabi could move, and this time everyone was in a dilemma.
If you want to have a small team with elite strength, to be honest, even Kumogakure doesn't have many.
Seeing everyone thinking hard, Li Ke smiled.
"Raikage, leave this to me, I will finish it."
"Li Ke, you..."
Lei Ying looked at Li Ke and wanted to say something, but in the middle of the sentence, he suddenly seemed to think of something and did not say any more.
It didn't take long for the meeting to end.
Everyone has returned to their posts, and they can do whatever they need to do.
There are only four people in the office: Li Ke, Raikage, Chiba Kei, and Todai.
"Li Ke, are you ready to use your power outside?"
As soon as Raikage said these words, Chiba Kei and Dodai next to him were both surprised.
They could tell that what Raikage meant was that Li Ke had his own private power outside.
This is a taboo for a ninja in a village. After all, you still have your own power outside. Who knows if you will still be loyal to the village.
Li Ke took in the expressions of the two of them, and a look of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
"Why are you so nervous? Look how calm the other Raikage is."
Lei Ying also noticed the expressions of the two staff officers and waved his hand to indicate that they should not be suspicious.
The reason why Raikage is so reassured is because of the power in Li Ke's hands, which cannot be integrated into Kumogakure due to various problems. More importantly, Lei Ying always believes that Li Ke is loyal to the village, even if he has his own armed forces. , it will not be detrimental to Yunyin.
As for why Raikage is so sure, the reason is simple.
He had approached Li Ke many times to ask Li Ke to take over as the Fifth Raikage, but Li Ke had not agreed.
You don't even want the Raikage's position as a gift, why are you stupid enough to organize people to grab it?
Based on this alone, Raikage's trust in Li Ke can reach an unprecedented level.
Li Ke nodded calmly.
"Yes, I also want to try how much power that team can exert. Today's Orochimaru is undoubtedly a good whetstone."
Seeing that Li Ke was so sure, Raikage nodded, but couldn't help but ask one more question.
"After all, this mission is not in the Kingdom of Thunder. The risks along the way are unpredictable. Do you have enough manpower there? If not, use some power from the village."
Raikage's proposal is quite feasible, after all, who knows what will happen outside.
Tutai, who had already reacted next to him, nodded and put forward his own suggestion.
"Master Li Ke, I also suggest that you bring more manpower from the village, not only to prevent unexpected events, but more importantly, you are representing Yunyin Village this time."
What Tutai and Raikage said was very reasonable, and Li Ke nodded in agreement.
"No problem. It's time for the children in the village to grow up. I will lead them to complete the task as quickly as possible, but please ask Raikage to worry more about diplomacy."
……
The land of sound, the famous mansion.
"Your Excellency Daimyo, the credentials of our country of thunder have been delivered. Orochimaru is a famous target on our Kumogakure list. We have been looking for him for many years. Today we finally learned that he is in the country of sound and has been attacked. With your blessing, Daimyo, we from the Kingdom of Thunder implore the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Sound to hand over Orochimaru. If you take the initiative to hand over Orochimaru, our Kingdom of Thunder is willing to give you a generous gift. If your country refuses to hand over Orochimaru, we Kumogakure will also I had no choice but to personally send a team to assassinate him.”
"Please consider it at your own discretion, I will take my leave now."
The envoy of Yunyin Village covered his chest with one hand, followed all etiquette, bowed deeply to the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Sound, and then slowly retreated.
As soon as the Yunyin messenger stepped back, the whole hall became quiet.
The warriors on both sides were wearing armor and stood on both sides with swords hanging from their waists. The wind outside the door blew in, causing the scabbards on their waists to touch the armor and make a tinkling sound. This sound was particularly loud at this moment, and it was loud and full of meaning. There is a hint of loneliness.
a long time.
The ministers who stood in the way of the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Sound finally spoke.
All the ministers adopted a unified approach towards the retreating envoy Yunyin, and directly cursed him.
"You bastard! What a bastard! You actually openly asked us to make friends with you."
"Kumogakure's really a bunch of barbarians."
"It's too arrogant. Although our Country of Sound is a small country, we cannot let others bully us."
"That's right, I think we should expand this matter so that all countries in the shinobi world know about it, and put diplomatic pressure on Kumogakure."
"I agree with that."
These chief ministers were discussing intensely below, but they did not notice that the daimyo of the Country of Sound, who was sitting in the main seat, turned green listening to their discussion.
The Daimyo of the Land of Sound is 45 years old this year.
As the king of a country in the Kingdom of Sound, because he only rules a small country, it is basically impossible to do anything big in this life, but this is also a benefit. A small country will not arouse the covetousness of others, so the life of the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Sound is still good. Relatively comfortable.
The harem married more than a dozen people, and they were also laissez-faire about the development of the country, and their lives were quite comfortable until the arrival of Orochimaru.
"Bastard! Have you guys been kicked in the head by a donkey?"
The Daimyo of the Kingdom of Sound shouted angrily, and all the ministers below fell silent for an instant.
The Daimyo of the Kingdom of Sound is so angry. The Kingdom of Sound is a small country and its national power is not strong, but the ministers under him are all stupid.
It's no wonder that he, a great name from the Kingdom of Sound, can only lie down.
The minister below heard the daimyo's tone and reacted instantly.
It turns out that their daimyo didn't care whether the conditions of the Kumogakure messenger were humiliating. The daimyo just wanted to kill Orochimaru. What a great opportunity this was.
