Orochimaru said," This is the first point that I mentioned. The terrain. The Shinobu occupy Mount Campanulata. They can attack or defend. We really can't do anything to them."”
" The terrain is only the first factor. The second factor that makes us uncomfortable is the climate. The climate of the Wind Country is completely different from that of the Fire Country. It's hot during the day and cold at night. The ninjas in the village find it difficult to adapt to such a situation. That's why we built our stronghold far away from the Wind Country. Although it's not conducive to combat, there's nothing we can do about it.”
"Other than the terrain and climate, the third disadvantage is the ninjutsu.”
"What?" Okami asked in surprise. Is our Kiba not good at ninjutsu?”
Orochimaru said," Not entirely. In terms of quantity and quality of ninjutsu, our Koba is naturally the strongest. However, the problem is that if we want to defeat the Sanin, we have to charge into the Wind Country's territory. The terrain of the Wind Country is basically a desert, and the sky is filled with sandstorms. It is a natural enhancement to the ninjutsu of Wind Evasion, Fire Evasion, and Sand Control. However, it was very disadvantageous for water, earth, and lightning escape.”
"Unfortunately, the Sharen Village is best at wind escape and controlling sand and dust, so their ninjutsu has been strengthened while our ninjutsu has been suppressed. Naturally, it is difficult for us to gain the upper hand.”
After listening to Orochimaru's explanation, Shuiyun and the others looked at each other. They did not expect that there would be so many factors involved. Even Shuiyun, who knew the outcome of the war, was shocked.
Orochimaru was right. With so many unfavorable factors, Koba was able to defeat Sajin in the end. He really didn't know how he did it. Even if Mizuiyun racked his brain, he couldn't figure it out.
However, before Orochimaru could finish his sentence, he suddenly continued with a serious expression,""Actually, what I said just now are all external factors. It's not that we can't get customer service. In my opinion, the most important point isn't the above three points, but the last one.”
"There's more?" Zi Lai also asked in shock.
"That's the most important point." Orochimaru nodded.”
"What is it?" Zi Lai also asked.
"Faith," Orochimaru said.
"Faith?" What the hell?"
Orochimaru didn't care about Selaiya and explained to Shuiyun and the others,""War doesn't just rely on strength, but also faith. If you have faith, you can often display 120% of your strength.”
"Orochimaru, do you mean that Sanin's faith is very strong?" Tsunete frowned and asked.”
"Yes, why would Sunin Village start a war with the excuse of avenging the third generation of Windshade?" Orochimaru said. It was to make use of this belief. Although this excuse was terrible, it made all the sand ninjas have the belief to take revenge. It made them unite as one, and they would not give up until they took revenge.”
"And what about our Muye? What is our belief in battle? No, at least not for the time being. We were just passively fighting. We didn't have any hatred for the occupied land, nor did we have the courage to face death. Therefore, we were at a disadvantage in terms of faith.”
At this moment, Zilai was not convinced. He retorted,"Who says we don't have faith? The sunin is an invader. Our belief is to protect our homeland and defeat them. Is this not our belief?”
Orochimaru suddenly sneered." Perhaps, but ever since I took over this place, I haven't seen the kind of conviction you mentioned at all. They may have the idea of protecting their country, but they aren't confident enough to face death unflinchingly, let alone be compared to the Sand Ninjas who treat us as their mortal enemies.”
"Why can't I see it?" asked Zilai loudly. At least I saw it."
"You just arrived, what can you see?" Orochimaru said disdainfully. I've been staying here all this time, so I can see it better than you.”
"Why can't I see it? Let me tell you, I saw it clearly.”Selai was not to be outdone.
"Alright, shut up. What time is it now? With the enemy in front of you, is this the time for you to make a fuss?”Okami angrily slammed the table and scolded.
Actually, Okami didn't think much of Orochimaru's belief. This kind of thing that couldn't be seen or touched wasn't enough to talk about. In Okami's opinion, the battle between the two sides naturally depended on strength.
Although Okami didn't care much about the belief, he was very interested in the three points mentioned by Orochimaru. If Kinoha wanted to win, he had to overcome these three factors.
Orochimaru shrugged. Looking at Okami's reaction, he knew that Okami did not take his words to heart. Kuraiya and Okami were both sent by Naruto III to be his assistants. Since both of them did not agree to replace him, he had no choice.
However, Orochimaru didn't mind. He swept his gaze around and found that other than the Water Wave Sect and Shenyue Shuiyun, everyone else was in a daze, as if they were thinking about something. This surprised Orochimaru. Even Okami and Yukirai didn't care. These two juniors were actually thinking about what he said, which really surprised him.
Orochimaru was already interested in him, and after seeing that he was thinking about his words, his interest in him grew even deeper. Looking at him, Orochimaru revealed a meaningful smile.
Shuiyun was indeed deep in thought. Orochimaru's words sounded very mysterious at first, but after thinking about it carefully, Shuiyun felt that it made sense. However, if Shuiyun were to say it, he could not say anything.
"Orochimaru, you've been here the longest. Do you have any good ways to defeat Sanin?" Okami asked.”
Orochimaru retracted his gaze, licked his lips, and said with a sharp gaze,"" I do have a way to defeat Sanin, but..." He didn't finish his sentence and only shook his head. It was obvious that he didn't think he could win.
Orochimaru didn't think highly of himself, but it made the eyes of the others light up. Okami and Yukari knew Orochimaru's personality. Since Orochimaru said so, it meant that he really had a way.
Therefore, Okami asked with anticipation,""Tell me what you can do."
"Since you want to know, I'll tell you." Orochimaru smiled faintly.”
"I can think of three ways to defeat Shanin Village.”Orochimaru raised three fingers.
"Three? So many?" Shuiyun and the others looked at Orochimaru in shock. He had just said that the situation was very unfavorable, and now he could say three ways to win. If this was said by others, Shuiyun would definitely scoff at this extremely contradictory contrast. However, when it came from Orochimaru, Shuiyun became solemn because Orochimaru was not a person who spoke without thinking.
"Quick, tell me about it," Okami said anxiously.”
"The three methods I mentioned are: Assassination, desperation, and attrition."
