Mixed in the Hokage cultivation road

Raikage Ai has been forced into a corner by Orochimaru, and there is really no point in negotiating on these conditions.

He forced himself to suppress his anger and temporarily returned to the Hidden Cloud Camp to discuss with the other four Kage.

The Sand Village really couldn't hold on any longer. Because of the strength of the Soul Village, the Sand Village had retreated to the Sand Village, but its defense line was still broken by the strong men led by Sasori.

With no way to retreat, Luo Sha could only order the Fukubiki to transform into a beast, hoping to use the one-tail to temporarily stabilize the situation.

But the Ninja Village had been waiting for a long time. Nine quasi-shadow masters, under the cover of six shadow-level masters including Sasori, Ye Cang, and Kuroiwa, easily re-sealed the One-Tail.

The morale of the Sand Village ninjas plummeted, and they almost lost the courage to resist.

Luo Sha also urgently asked Raikage Ai to reach negotiations with the Ninja Village as soon as possible!
As long as the Mingnin Village can withdraw its troops, they will accept the compensation even if it is 500 million taels!

If Sunagakure is defeated in the end and loses its village and a large number of ninjas like Konoha and Kirigakure, then Iwagakure and Kumogakure will be the next!
After a quick discussion, the five Kage finally came up with the final result.

They can agree to the first two requests made by the Soul Ninja Village. Konoha and Kirigakure have already been lost, and it is impossible to get them back given the character of Orochimaru of the Soul Ninja Village!
Danzo and Karuta Yagura could only accept it, they had no choice, everything had to be based on the overall situation!

Compensation is acceptable, but you must try to cut it down to minimize the loss.

Otherwise, if you agree too readily, it will arouse suspicion in the Ninja Village.

But the third request must not be agreed to! Chakra Cannon is the only life-saving talisman for the five major ninja villages.

Orochimaru must have known that they would not agree, but he was just trying to get what he wanted.

As a veteran Kage, Ohnoki has a more thorough understanding and gave reasonable suggestions.

After the final result was discussed, Raikage Ai, at the urging of Rasa, rushed to the front line to negotiate with Orochimaru again.

"Pluto, we can agree to the first two of your conditions, but the compensation is too high. Our three major ninja villages can only give you 2 million taels of compensation!"

"As for the third one, it's absolutely impossible! If you don't agree, we can continue fighting and use all the chakra cannons!"

Raikage Ai gave their final choice to Orochimaru, who had a calm face.

Orochimaru was not surprised at all, everything was within his expectations.

"The compensation is too little. Five hundred million taels is the bottom price of the Dark Ninja Village."

"3 million taels cannot be any more!" Raikage Ai took the initiative to increase the price by million taels.

However, Orochimaru did not reply.

"3.5 million taels! This is our limit! You, the Dark Ninja Village, please don't go too far!"

Raikage Ai looked extremely ugly, with anger evident on his face, and his acting was very outstanding.

“3亿7千5百44万4444两！”

Orochimaru suddenly said a specific amount, which just exceeded the limit given by Raikage Ai, but was not particularly much.

"Okay! I agree! Hurry up and notify Sunagakure and Tsuchigakure to withdraw from the battlefield!"

Raikage Ai did not continue to hesitate and pretended to grit his teeth and agreed reluctantly.

Anyway, the desired effect has been achieved. A few tens of millions more taels is not a problem at all. Even if it is an additional 100 million taels, the three families will have to agree. He is already very satisfied to be able to cut down so much.

He then asked Orochimaru to withdraw his troops, without any possibility of raising a third condition.

He believed that Orochimaru also knew that it was completely impossible, just like what the Tsuchikage Ohnoki said, he just wanted to hug him.

As long as the Raikage bites him to death, the Ninja Village will be helpless.

Orochimaru really didn't care about the third condition. He also knew that the Five Kage would most likely not hand over their life-saving talismans.

It was just a test. Maybe they couldn't stand the pressure and agreed. Then the Ninja Village would make a lot of money. So Orochimaru didn't hesitate about the final choice of Raikage Ai. Anyway, his goal had been achieved.

The expedition of the Ninja Village was not in vain, as it laid a solid foundation for the future unification of the entire ninja world.

This is enough to prove that the Dark Ninja Village has this strength! Their philosophy is definitely not empty talk!

"Pluto, please notify Iwagakure and Sunagakure to withdraw from the battlefield immediately!"

Raikage Ai urged Orochimaru again. There was no way the inner defense line of Sand Village on Rasa's side was about to be breached. A large number of ninjas had lost their combat effectiveness due to poisoning.

The number of captured and surrendered ninjas has also increased significantly. If things continue to drag on, Luo Sha will have to run away with his men!
"Don't worry Raikage, we in the Dark Ninja Village will definitely do what we promised."

Orochimaru casually comforted the anxious Raikage Ai, and then sent an order to withdraw from the battlefields of Iwagakure and Sand Village.

Sasori and Kuroiwa were both helpless after receiving the order. They were about to completely capture Sunagakure, but they didn't expect that at this time, Orochimaru sent an order to withdraw.

But there was nothing they could do, because they arrived a little late. Ye Cang and some of the Sand Village ninjas who defected were not very strong and could not have much impact on the Sand Village ninjas.

Since Pluto Orochimaru has spoken, they have to obey his orders no matter how dissatisfied they are.

Then Scorpion ordered a temporary retreat to a group of his subordinates, and withdrew the ninjas of the Ninja Village from the Sand Village.

Only after seeing the Ninja Village completely retreat did Luo Sha finally breathe a sigh of relief.

It's too dangerous! Sand Village is only a dozen minutes away from following the same fate as Kirigakure and Konoha.

Although the Tsuchiya clan was able to barely hold off the attack from the Ninja Village, they were always at a disadvantage and would inevitably be on the road to failure over time.

Seeing Tian Qingcheng and the ninja retreating, Ohnoki's tired heart finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He was very tired, because there were more strong men in the Dark Ninja Village, and he needed to provide support everywhere, using his advantage of being able to fly to give Iwagakure a chance to change and stabilize the situation.

However, he did not succeed, and instead made the situation of Iwagakure even worse!
Now that the army of the Ninja Village has withdrawn, many Iwagakure are very happy. Finally, they don't have to fight for their lives anymore!
However, the evacuated Ninjas from the Soul Village not only took away their dead teammates, but also packed up and took away the captives, as well as those who had suggested surrendering from the Iwagakure and Sunagakure.

They didn't care at all about the attitudes of the Tsuchikage Ōnoki and the Kazekage Rasa, and they had no way to deal with it.

The fact that the Ninja Village was able to withdraw its troops was already a courtesy to them, so what else did they want?

Let's send these big bosses away first. The most important thing is to preserve our existing strength!
As a qualified shadow, they know what is important and how to make choices.

Miyaji Hizou saw what Orochimaru was doing and didn't think there was any big problem. Since Orochimaru wanted to be safe, he would just take it slow.

The problem of the chakra cannon has been solved, and the remaining three major ninja villages can be taken down at any time.

With their current strength, even if they gathered together, they would be completely unable to stop the next wave of attacks from the Ninja Village.

"Raikage Ai, please tell the Kazekage and the Tsuchikage that the compensation should be sent to the Ninja Village within ten days, otherwise you know the consequences!"

"Oh, by the way, don't forget your own compensation."

Before leaving, Orochimaru teased Raikage Ai again.

"I got it. The compensation will be delivered soon. Our three major ninja villages will not break their promises. Please don't break the agreement and attack us again, Pluto."

Raikage Ai looked very unhappy. He was naturally unhappy with Orochimaru's teasing, but he still responded to Orochimaru and reminded him not to go back on his word.

"That depends on how long your secret weapon, the life-saving talisman, can protect you!"

Orochimaru gave a meaningful reply to the Raikage Ai, then took the lead and left the negotiation site.
