Chapter 287 I have never believed in the so-called big country
Inosuke's forbearance for many days reached a critical point, and the evil ghost entrenched in his heart escaped at this moment. When he came to his senses, he was already standing in the tent.
This was destined to be a fruitless argument. When Hanzo agreed to Onoki's proposal and accepted reinforcements from others, they had no position.
"Don't you want to eat?" Inosuke looked at them and asked with a cold voice.
Several Iwagakure ninjas faced his cold gaze fearlessly. They smiled nonchalantly and said, "Ah, that food is hard to digest. We are not acclimated to the climate and it makes our stomachs feel uncomfortable."
"There are no rice balls here."
"..."
"So, if you don't want to eat it, don't eat it. Others... you don't have to eat it."
In the tent, the eyes of the leader Iwagakure ninja became fierce when he heard these words.
He stared at Inosuke's expressionless face and raised his voice several degrees.
"What do you mean, we came to support you, and this is how you treat your savior?"
"Haha," Inosuke laughed suddenly, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. He looked at the man and asked him: "Who is the savior?"
"You..." The man choked on his question and was speechless for a moment.
"When the Konoha ninjas attacked, were you hiding behind our Amegakure ninjas? When the detonating talisman was thrown over, were you the ones who held us Amegakure ninjas as human shields?"
"Hey, when did we do this? Don't talk nonsense!"
Inosuke did not show any fear in the face of multiple Iwagakure ninjas. He stood at the entrance of the tent like a majestic mountain. He blocked the light source, making the inside of the tent even darker.
"You touch your conscience and say, have I ever wronged you?"
Conscience is like the invisible sword hanging above the head. Not everyone dares to touch their conscience and speak.
The Iwagakure ninja was stunned, but Inosuke didn't feel any pleasure at all. He was even a little numb.
It was as if he was talking to them or mumbling to himself.
"In a few days, I'm afraid I won't even be able to eat the compressed biscuits. Even this one was saved from the mouths of the Amegakure ninjas. We can't even eat these. Each person has two pieces. We will starve to death. That’s all.”
Inosuke's sadness was visible to the naked eye. They could rarely see the kind of deathly sadness on a person's face. Those mocking and sarcastic words could no longer be uttered. They all turned their faces away, not daring to look at him.
"Ask me again, compressed biscuits, do you want to eat them?"
They all knew that this was their last chance. If they refused to eat for the sake of face, the man would definitely go back with the biscuits without looking back. This was how they felt.
A few people, you look at me, I look at you, the first one said that eating is really not easy.
however……
"Put it there."
After all, the leading man did not embarrass his companions and became the most shameless person.
Inosuke retreated from the tent, turned around, and something quickly jumped away from the place under his feet.
He stared for a long time, the rain blurring his vision. After a few minutes, he shuddered and came to his senses.
"Ah, how can there be a cat in a place like this?" He said again, as if mocking himself, "It seems that there is nothing to eat in the village, so I came here..."
The cat was fat but very agile and disappeared without a trace in a short while.
Inosuke smiled bitterly and complained, "People are almost skin and bones, but a cat is still so fat, haha."
After Inosuke left, there was silence for a long time in Iwagakure's tent. At the signal of the leading ninja, the others began to pick up the compressed biscuits and began to eat them.
It is not an easy task to unite the ninjas of two originally hostile villages so suddenly.
In the past, Iwagakure and Amegakure would have conflicts every few years due to border issues, or even small-scale wars. Relatives and friends on both sides had died at the hands of the other side. It was impossible for them to let go just because of an order from above. Grudges from the past are fought side by side.
Besides, this time, Iwagakure didn’t really want to help Amegakure.
But it’s just mutual benefit.
In the middle of the night, Hanzo came back. He came back from the battlefield against Sunagakure, just like when he left. When he came back again, he was still fine and unscathed, with an inviolable aura and inviolability. An angry and powerful aura.
Hanzo heard every word of Inosuke's accusation against the Iwagakure ninja. Under the background of the rain, Inosuke's voice was broken and angry.
"Hanzo-sama, what exactly do you think? Iwagakure and his gang are not really here to support us at all."
Inosuke didn't know what Onoki and Hanzo had talked about in the shabby hotel at the border for a day and a half, and what conditions they had for each other.
The war in Amegakure originally had nothing to do with Iwagakure. Logically speaking, any country should stay away from the war, but the Tsuchikage took the initiative to meet Hanzo. It must have been his initiative to send ninjas to support him. propose.
So what exactly is Iwagakure’s purpose?
Thinking of this, Inosuke felt a chill go down his spine. He looked at Hanzo worriedly, fearing that it would be easier to invite a god than to give him away. After the war with Sunagakure and Konoha ended, the next one would be Iwagakure.
Inosuke is a very upright person, without so many twists and turns. Everything in his heart is shown on his face. Just like his current worries, Hanzo can also see them clearly.
Hanzo, who was wearing a breathing mask, only showed a pair of eyes, and all his emotions were conveyed through these eyes.
There was a lamp like a bean in the tent, projecting the figures of the two people onto the tarp.
"Hanzo-sama, what do you think?"
After asking this question, all it took was a sharp look from Hanzo for Inosuke to realize that he had made a mistake. He could not find out about the decision-making of Ichimura Kage.
But he was worried, he was worried that Hanzo was being deceived by Tsuchikage Onoki.
But the opponent was Hanzo, a man who had led Amegakure to many victorious battles. Without him, Amegakure would have been annexed by Iwagakure many years ago.
Inosuke felt ridiculous for his worries, he shouldn't have questioned Hanzo's.
"I'm sorry, Master Hanzo..."
I expected to be scolded by Hanzo, but unexpectedly, what I heard was Hanzo's deep laughter.
This laughter seemed to be there and not there, and it was hard to hear it clearly due to the disturbance of the rain.
Hanzo's tent has a barrier, so even if he says something inside, he doesn't have to worry about hearing through the walls.
He looked at the man standing respectfully opposite, and slowly said: "Don't care about the people in Iwagakure, and don't count on them. They are just tools to us Yugakure."
Inosuke couldn't understand Hanzo's words and had a confused look on his face.
"We have to fight the battle by ourselves, and we have to rely on ourselves to win the victory we want."
"That Iwagakure..."
"With Iwagakure, we will still have to fight sooner or later, so there is no need to worry."
"..."
"Leaving Konoha aside, if you were from Sunagakure, how would you view Iwagakure's assistance this time?"
Although Hanzo didn't say it clearly, when he said this, after seeing Hanzo's eyes like an old fox, if Inosuke didn't understand, he would no longer be qualified to stay by Hanzo's side.
As if suddenly enlightened, Inosuke let out a long sigh of relief.
"Hmph," Hanzo snorted coldly, "Onoki and I are just using each other. I have never believed in the so-called big country."
