Orochimaru, running away with a bucket

The ninja held the umbrella tightly, his heart filled with rage, when he saw a rock flying towards him like a cannonball.

boom--!

The ninja was hit in the abdomen by the rock and fell from the air with a scream.

"Show me my Earth Release: Rock Cannon Technique!"

Jiraiya looked proudly at the ninja who was knocked down by his Rock Cannon Technique.

"Be careful, there are more enemies coming. This time they are all ninjas."

Orochimaru looked around and reminded Jiraiya and Tsunade.

"Fire Release·Ghost Lantern!"

Countless fireballs with the appearance of Prajna illuminated the dim forest and flew towards the three people.

The three people who were on guard dodged the fireball in different directions, but the fireball chased after them like a real evil spirit, hitting the trees and igniting flames.

"There's no end!"

Tsunade frowned, formed seals with her hands, and turned around.

Seeing Tsunade forming hand seals, Orochimaru and Jiraiya came to her side.

"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"

Tsunade spit out a large amount of water forward, forming a water wall that rotated around her body, and the fireballs that hit the water wall were extinguished one after another.

"Tu Escape Tu Ling Tuanzi!"

The ground shook and a huge rock flew over.

"Wind Escape·Vacuum Jade!"

Orochimaru quickly formed seals with his hands, took a deep breath, and the vacuum ball that spewed out of his mouth instantly shattered the huge rock.

Is the location over there?

Tsunade locked onto the enemy's location and formed seals with her hands.

"Thunder Release: Thunder Extreme Moxibustion!"

Tsunade's body was faintly flashing with visible lightning chakra, and she rushed towards the location of the earth ninja at an extremely fast speed.

"How is this possible?! My Earth Escape..."

The Earth Style Ninja looked in shock at the Earth Style Dango that was shattered by the Wind Style Ninja.

"careful!"

The ninja next to the earth-style ninja saw the faint lightning and shouted a warning.

boom--!

The earth-style ninja flew out like a cannonball, knocking down many trees and sending smoke and dust rising.

"The technique of messing up the lion's hair!"

Jiraiya's hair grew longer and tougher, entangling the ninjas attacking from both sides. The two ninjas heard the loud noise and looked over with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

"This is……"

The ninja looked at the broken trees in shock, unable to believe that it was done by the cute-looking young girl. He then looked at his companion who was entangled in Jiraiya's hair, and began to feel like retreating.

boom--!

The ninja threw a smoke bomb and took the opportunity to escape.

"It's your turn next, asshole!"

Tsunade's voice sounded behind the ninja, her voice full of anger and resentment, as if she had some deep hatred against him. She raised her foot high and smashed it down.

"how do you know……"

Before the ninja could finish his words, Tsunade struck him with a full force blow.

boom--!

The ground shook violently, and the ninja fell into the big pit with a twisted body, with the astonishment of seeing Tsunade still lingering in his eyes.

Under the strengthening of Lei Jiji Jue, Tsunade's strength reached a very terrifying level.

From now on... from now on... from now on, I'd better stay away from Tsunade...

When Jiraiya saw this scene, he thought of his previous quarrel with Tsunade and felt scared.

Jiraiya looked at the two ninjas who were bound by his hair, then looked at Orochimaru and asked, "Orochimaru, what should we do with these two guys?"

"They're no longer useful."

Orochimaru waved his hand and threw a kunai, which pierced deeply into their foreheads.

"Then there's no need to kill them, right?"

Jiraiya didn't expect Orochimaru to be so decisive and manipulate the hair to put the body down.

"Let them go?"

Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya with his golden eyes and snorted coldly, "Jiraiya, you are too naive. They are probably the so-called 'Shinin', a bunch of losers who learned ninjutsu in the ninja village, betrayed the village, refused to admit that they were ninja, and used ninjutsu to bully the ordinary people."

“I can’t bear it…”

It was the first time Jiraiya had heard of Shinobazu's existence.

"This isn't the first time we've acted relentlessly. If we let them go, do you think they'll change their ways? We killed their companions. What if they retaliate against us?"

Orochimaru patted Jiraiya's shoulder and said nothing more. It is difficult to change a person's thoughts. All she can do is ask Jiraiya not to interfere with her or try to change her.

Jiraiya looked at Orochimaru's back and couldn't say anything to refute. He knew that Orochimaru was right, but he couldn't take someone's life so decisively.

Looking at the corpse on the ground, Jiraiya slapped his hands on the ground, and the soil rolled and swallowed the corpse.

What exactly is the prophecy about me?

Jiraiya looked at the corpse disappearing into the soil, thinking that the Great Toad Sage had not given any prophecy about him yet, and he didn't know how long he would have to wait.

Tsunade looked at Jiraiya, who didn't know what he was thinking, and shook her head.

This guy always thinks of unrealistic things!

After confirming that the battle was over, the team transporting the goods returned and found a place to rest.

There were no further attacks along the way. After arriving at the target city, the goods were delivered to a specialty store selling skin care products.

Orochimaru, Tsunade, and Jiraiya returned to Konoha.

-------------------------------------

After buying medicinal tea in Konoha, the subordinates of the Fire Nation's nobles transformed themselves into midnight war gods and severely punished their wives and concubines who had any complaints about their abilities.

Sarutobi Hiruzen really wanted Danzo Shimura to never know why medicinal tea was so popular among the powerful, but the truth could not be hidden.

Danzo Shimura learned the true function of the medicinal tea from the information collected by the Root ninja.

boom--!

Wow——!

Shimura Danzo kicked the desk over, and the things on the desk were scattered all over the floor.

Danzo Shimura looked at the information in his hand, and at this moment, his expression was extremely interesting.

The Root ninja lowered his head, pretending not to see anything.

"Saru! Tobi! Hi! Slash!!!"

Danzo Shimura wrinkled the paper in his hand, gritted his teeth, and squeezed out Sarutobi Hiruzen's name word by word from between his teeth, showing how angry he was.

When Shimura Danzo thought about the fact that the recipe of the medicinal tea announced to the public was passed down from his family, he was almost furious.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, I'm not done with you!

Volume 67: Chapter : Control

"Hiruzen! Give me an explanation!"

Danzo Shimura's angry roar almost blew off the roof of the Hokage Building. Not many people had seen Danzo Shimura so angry, not even Koharu Utatane and Enma Mito. The last time Danzo Shimura lost his temper like this was when they were in the Jounin School.

Advisory Office

Mitomon En heard Shimura Danzo's roar and asked, "Koharu, should we go take a look?"

"You go if you want to go. We should stay out of the affairs of Danzo and Hiruzen."

Utane Koharu had heard a little about the medicinal tea, and because of that, she knew very well why Danzo Shimura was so furious.

Selling it to those powerful people would not be a big deal, fortunately it was not sold in the village, otherwise she would be embarrassed as a consultant.

Hokage's Office

"Danzo, calm down! Things have already come to this point. Even if you smash the Hokage's office, it won't help."

Sarutobi Hiruzen, with a pipe in his mouth, calmly looked at Shimura Danzo, whose face flushed red with anger and who was breathing heavily like an angry bull, and reminded him, "Also, this is the Hokage's office."

Even though Danzo was angry at him, he wanted to laugh. It was so rare to see Danzo like this!

Sarutobi Hiruzen's mouth corners were so wildly raised that he could hardly suppress them.

Upon hearing this, Shimura Danzo flew into a rage, pointing his finger at Sarutobi Hiruzen and yelling, "Sarutobi Hiruzen, Sarutobi Hiruzen, how could I not see that you have such a vicious mind! How could you hide such an important thing from me!"

If Danzo Shimura knew that the medicinal tea had such an effect, he would never say that it was his family recipe. Wouldn't it be better to find someone else to take the blame?

He couldn't believe how the powerful people of the Fire Nation viewed him now!

Danzo Shimura is going to be the Hokage in the future!

Danzo Shimura imagined what the powerful people in the Land of Fire would say about him when he became Hokage in the future.

The Fourth Hokage, Shimura Danzo? Isn't that the guy who sells aphrodisiacs?

boom--!

Danzo Shimura slammed his hand on the desk and stared fiercely at Sarutobi Hiruzen with his left eye. If he was a member of the Uchiha clan, his emotions would fluctuate so much at this moment that he might even open his Mangekyo.

Originally he thought he had a chance to become Hokage, but now, he feels that the chance is not that great.

He even thought that if he became Hokage, it might bring discredit to the throne of Hokage!

This is all Sarutobi Hiruzen's fault!

"Danzo, have you made any money from the medicinal tea business? Hasn't the Shimura clan's dissatisfaction with you diminished? Have your efforts brought benefits to the village?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen crossed his hands on the desk, looked at Shimura Danzo with a serious expression, and asked a soul-searching question.

"..."

Danzo Shimura remained silent and said nothing.

"Your efforts have united the major families in the village, and the Uchiha clan has been further integrated into the big family of Konoha. Danzo, your merits are unquestionable, and your contribution to Konoha is genuine."

Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke the truth. He was planning to sell medicinal tea in Konoha. His business in Konoha might not be as good as selling to those powerful people, but it would not be much worse.

Even if fewer people buy it, the number of newborns born in Konoha will increase, which is very beneficial to the recovery of Konoha's strength. With a larger population, there will be more children with ninja talent, and the overall strength will grow steadily.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen continued, "Danzo, I think you should sell medicinal tea in the village."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Don't even think about it!"

Danzo Shimura rejected Sarutobi Hiruzen's proposal without a second thought and bought medicinal tea in the village. Are you kidding me? Does he want to lose face?

"Danzo, think about those powerful people. They all need medicinal tea. There are people in the village who also need it. You know the effects of medicinal tea. Even if only a few people buy it, it will increase the number of newborns in the village. Don't you understand this principle?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up, looked at the scenery in the village, took a deep breath of cigarette, exhaled the smoke, turned around, pointed the pipe in his hand at Shimura Danzo, and said very seriously: "Danzo, you are not doing the medicinal tea business, you are contributing to the future of the village!"

Danzo Shimura was deeply shocked by Sarutobi Hiruzen's words. He really didn't know how to refute it for a moment. No matter how he thought about it, Sarutobi Hiruzen's words made sense, but he always felt that something was not right!

So in order to contribute to the village, Danzo Shimura has to sell medicinal tea?

Or is it a medicinal tea with that kind of effect?

"Danzo, are you going to refuse? I understand. I will find a way to sell the medicinal tea in the village."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, as if he had given up the idea of persuading Shimura Danzo.

"Huruzen, now that things have come to this, I, Shimura Danzo, will be the one selling medicinal tea in the village."
