Naruto Time Control

Chapter 129: Acting alone

"I will face Hanzo of the Salamander."

Yeruashi looked at the map and said calmly.

It's much easier for him to deal with Hanzo than the Tsuchikage Ōnoki, who can fly, so if he feels threatened, this old man will immediately fly away, moving the fight to a great distance.

It is not even worth discussing the power of Jinton's ranged attacks, although Yeruashi has the ability to reverse the flow of time, allowing him to undo any damage, but he does not want to go through the process of completely disintegrating into atoms.

"Oh? You decided to deal with Hanzo?"

Orochimaru looked at Yeruashi with some surprise and said, "There is one thing I must explain to you, Hanzo of the Salamander is a man who is called a Demigod Ninja, he is definitely not weaker than the Third Tsuchikage, and he is also extremely cautious and calculating. In my personal opinion, Hanzo is more difficult to deal with than Ōnoki."

Of course, Ōnoki, who has a Kekkei Tōta: Jinton, is incredibly strong, but from Orochimaru's point of view, Hanzo, called the Ninja Demigod, is much more dangerous and troublesome!

Hanzo has the widest range of abilities, and realizing that there is no way to win, he retreats without hesitation, in no case getting involved in a bitter battle. Even if he dominates the battle, he will never rush, but will choose the most stable and correct method of fighting. Hanzo of the Salamander is a ninja who never finds himself in too dangerous a situation.

Orochimaru has fought Hanzo more than once and is well aware of how troublesome this opponent is.

"I know."

Yeruashi nodded and said quietly, "But I already killed one of the five Kage and I'm not interested in the others, instead, I want to know how strong this so called Ninja Demigod is."

"You'd rather challenge the strong ones... ke-ke-ke...? It seems that after defeating the Third Raikage, your self-confidence has increased considerably."

Orochimaru chuckled and said seriously, "When dealing with Hanzo, you must pay special attention to his poison. The Cell Stimulation method can slow down the effects of his poison, if you notice signs of poisoning, you should withdraw immediately. Hanzo is extremely cautious and will not pursue his opponent too much."

Orochimaru paused for a moment and added, "But I would still advise you to deal with Tsuchikage, the ability to accelerate the flow of time will become a catalyst for the poison, accelerating its spread and impact on the body, it can be said that Hanzo's main ability restricts your main ability."

"Don't worry, Sensei."

Yeruashi smiled and said, "After the battle at the border of the Wind Country, I was busy learning medical ninjutsu from Tsunade-sensei, so even if I get poisoned, I won't let the poison spread easily through my body."

Hearing Yeruashi's words, Orochimaru nodded.

After learning from Tsunade, he really should have the ability to deal with poison to some extent. Given Yeruashi's speed, the fight against Hanzo shouldn't be too dangerous, and in case of poisoning, he will be able to retreat without any problem.

Orochimaru was surprised that Yeruashi became Tsunade's disciple. As Sannins, they have gone through many dangers side by side, sharing life and death, plus Tsunade does not aspire to the position of Hokage, so they have no conflict of interest. In fact, it is even excellent that Yeruashi became her pupil because the pupil somehow carries the will of the master.

"The Danzo-sama is not here?"

Yeruashi looked around and turned to Orochimaru.

Orochimaru shook his head, saying, "Danzo went to the Land of Rain to meet Hanzo and try to talk, but it's time for him to return." josei

Just then, a figure leaning on a staff entered the tent, Danzo looked at Yeruashi with a frown and then turned to Orochimaru, "The negotiations failed."

"Hanzo must be very careful with the current Konoha, because once we win the war against the Great Ninja Villages, the Rain Country may become one of the first targets, Amegakure will not face Konoha alone."

Orochimaru smiled grimly and said, "Since Hanzo and his ninja are not willing to stand aside, it is only fair to include Amegakure in the war."

Now that Minato was sweeping the battlefield in the Water Country, suppressing Kirigakure, and Yeruashi had assassinated the Third Raikage in the war, Kumogakure dared not face them head-on.

The combination of Iwagakure and Amegakure certainly brought them a lot of trouble, but with the addition of Yeruashi, Orochimaru was confident of gaining victory, even in the case of a joint attack by Amegakure and Iwagakure.

Danzo nodded and looked at Yeruashi and said, "You did a good job on the Rain Country front."

Danzo's usual tone and expression were completely normal.

Yeruashi sat down, poured himself a cup of tea and said quietly, "Elder Danzo too."

Since entering this world, Yeruashi had never revealed his talent for fear of being noticed by Danzo, but now it was different, at this moment, he couldn't help but feel some excitement.

Seven years.

It would seem that this happened recently, but in fact, it had been almost seven years since his arrival in this world.

Almost seven years of grueling practice, in exchange for his current strength and position.

Orochimaru looked at Danzo and briefly described his plan of action, mentioning that Yeruashi had volunteered to deal with the Rain Country and Hanzo.

Danzo was also surprised by Yeruashi's choice, but after thinking about it he decided that it would be the best decision, after all, the ninja of Iwagakure were far more numerous than the ninja of Amegakure, and if Yeruashi decides to deal with Tsuchikage, then either he or Orochimaru should be present at the front to exercise command of the massive forces of Konoha.

In that case, the rest would have to deal with Hanzo alone.

But to deal with Amegakure, Yeruashi would only have to take one squad with him, although he was young and inexperienced, his strength and status would be enough to command a single squad.

"Considering the ninja recently sent to support, we have fifty-seven Jounins, five thousand six hundred Chuunins and almost two thousand Genins..."

Danzo looked at Yeruashi and said, "The total number of Amegakure ninja does not exceed two thousand, there are not many elites among them, most of them are not even strong enough to match their Chuunin and Jounin ranks. If we give you a squad of One Thousand ninja, will you be able to stop Amegakure's attack, do you have any confidence in this?"

Yeruashi took a sip of tea calmly, slowly put the cup on the table, stood up and said casually, "There is no need for so much trouble, let all our forces oppose Iwagakure, and as for Amegakure... I alone will be enough."

Among the Amegakure ninja, with the exception of Hanzo, no one posed any threat to him, let alone two thousand, even twenty thousand would be meaningless.

If he takes a squad of thousands of ninja with him, Yeruashi will be forced to command them and be responsible for people's lives, that alone will slow him down.

It will end as soon as Hanzo is killed.

"Alone?"

Danzo frowned and said, "You shouldn't joke about such things."

Orochimaru was surprised, "Are you planning to carry out a 'decapitation operation'? But Hanzo is not that easy to kill, even in his sleep, he is carefully guarded by a large number of ninja."

"I think it's worth a try."

Yeruashi said quietly.

Orochimaru and Danzo were very hesitant about this, because they both know Hanzo well and are well aware of how difficult it is to kill him, and once a hidden attack fails, there is a great risk of being ambushed, even with Yeruashi's skills, it will be difficult to escape.

But Yeruashi's attitude was uncompromising, so they could not refuse his offer.

In a few hours.

After reviewing the information about Amegakure, Yeruashi just left Konoha's front camp and headed in the direction of the Rain Country.
