"Assassination? Fight desperately? Draining?"
Zilai Ye's eyes were wide open as he exclaimed in a fuss,""What are you talking about? Why don't I understand anything?”
"Of course an idiot wouldn't understand," Orochimaru mocked.”
"Orochimaru, who are you calling an idiot?”Zilai asked angrily.
"Whoever agrees will naturally be the one." Orochimaru said indifferently.”
"Orochimaru, do you want to fight?”Zilai said through gritted teeth.
Orochimaru continued to mock,""You have to be able to beat me first. Can you?”
"Then I'll let you see if it works."”
As the two of them continued to bicker, Okami clenched his fists so tightly that cracking sounds could be heard. Even Shui Yun, who was beside him, was shocked.
"Are you two done? If you don't have the spirit to attack the sunin, you'll have internal strife here. Shut up. If you dare to say another word, hmph.”After saying that, Okami shook his fist, looking as if he was going to beat him up if he was not convinced.
Seeing this, the Water Gate quickly pulled Zirai to the side. Although he knew that Sanren was joking, it was not the time. He could not control Orochimaru, so he could only pull Zirai to the side.
Seeing that Yukirai had settled down, Okami said to Orochimaru,"Orochimaru, continue. What do those three methods mean?”
Orochimaru nodded and continued,"" Actually, it's what it means literally. Assassination is naturally to kill the higher-ups of the Shinobu through assassination. Without the higher-ups 'command, even if the Shinobu has natural barriers and various favorable conditions, they will definitely lose.”
" Assassinate the higher-ups of the Sand Ninja?"
Orochimaru's words made Okami shake her head repeatedly. She denied," This method won't work. Sneaking into Mount Campanulata to assassinate the higher-ups of the Sanin is basically an impossible mission. Even if the three of us go together, I'm afraid we won't be able to return, let alone others. Therefore, Orochimaru, assassinating is completely impossible.”
Orochimaru wasn't surprised to be rejected on the spot. He had already thought of this situation, so he continued,""If the first method of assassination is not feasible, then the second method is to go all out. It means that we must take down the mountain regardless of our losses. If we really have this determination, I feel that we have at least 70% to 80% confidence.”
"Disregarding all losses? Are you saying to gamble with everyone's lives?”Okami's expression turned ugly.
"You can say that." Orochimaru replied noncommittally.
"Orochimaru, are you crazy?" Tsunete shouted angrily. He actually thought of a way to exchange for this victory without caring about the lives of the ninjas in the village?”
"Although this method is very cruel, it's still a method," Orochimaru said expressionlessly.”
"No, I absolutely don't agree. Even if we can't win this war, I absolutely don't agree to use this method. They are our comrades, we can't let them sacrifice themselves just for a victory.”Zilai also shouted excitedly.
"You're too kind." Orochimaru sneered in disdain." There will be sacrifices in war. It's just a matter of whether you die early or late. If you can win once and for all, even if there are sacrifices, it's worth it. If this war continues, more people may die.”
However, Kirai did not listen to Orochimaru's words. Instead, she asked Tsunete,""What do you think, Tsunete?"
Everyone turned to look at Okami. Okami's beautiful face was filled with seriousness. He looked at Orochimaru and said solemnly,"I agree with Selaiya. Although this is a cruel war, I really can't watch everyone die. After all, no one knows if this method can take down Campanulata Mountain. If it doesn't succeed, wouldn't everyone's sacrifice be in vain? Therefore, I don't agree with this method either.”
After hearing Okami's answer, Kirai immediately said to Orochimaru,""Orochimaru, two to one. Your method won't work.”
Orochimaru's eyes narrowed as he sneered,""Alright, since none of you agree, I have no objections. In any case, this war is not decided by me alone.”
Listening to Orochimaru's self-deprecating words and looking at the cold smile on his face, Shui Yun suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
At this moment, he finally understood why the third generation Naruto would send all three ninjas to fight against a single Sunin village. It was because no one could suppress Orochimaru, be it the Orochimaru or the Tsunei. Only when the two of them were together could they refute Orochimaru.
It was obvious that the third generation Naruto had already understood Orochimaru's methods, which was why he had asked Kirai and Okami to come over. It was obvious that the third generation Naruto was already afraid of Orochimaru.
However, Mizuno could understand what the third generation Naruto was thinking. From the conversation just now, Mizuno could see that Orochimaru's way of doing things was indeed terrifying. He was definitely the kind of person who would do anything to achieve his goal. If Kirai and Tsunei were not around, Orochimaru would have made the choice he had just mentioned and won regardless of everything.
Shui Yun did not dare to imagine how many people would die in this war if Orochimaru really did this. It was not impossible for them to be completely wiped out.
The third generation Naruto had chosen the younger Waving Water Gate instead of Orochimaru. It seemed that it was not without reason, because Waving Water Gate was much more generous than Orochimaru.
While Mizuki was thinking, Orochimaru continued to talk about his third method.
"The last method I thought of is to waste time and resources. Sharen Village's finances are far inferior to Muye's. Without sufficient resources, even if we do nothing, they will only be exhausted to death by us in the end.”Orochimaru said.
"That's a good idea." Okami's eyes lit up.”
"If we can win without expending a single soldier, so what if we spend some time?" Zi Lai also nodded.”
"Haha!"
Unexpectedly, Orochimaru sneered disdainfully. This made Orochimaru unhappy. He asked,"Hey, Orochimaru, what are you laughing at? Am I wrong?"
"If this method was really effective, would I have left it for last?" Orochimaru sneered. To tell you the truth, among the three methods of assassination, risking one's life, and wasting one's resources, assassination is the best strategy, risking one's life is the middle strategy, and wasting time and resources is the worst strategy.”
Orochimaru's words stunned everyone. What did he mean? Even Shui Yun was stunned. From Orochimaru's words, the third option was obviously the best choice. Why did Orochimaru say the opposite?
