What Kushina didn't know was that the last lost page recorded this sentence:
"If your boyfriend makes you angry, be sure to cook a dish recorded in the book to disgust him! However, there is a high risk of food poisoning. If any accidents occur, the author has nothing to do with it."
"Fried cakes, lychees, braised chicken feet, intestine strips, rotten loach... the names seem a bit strange, but since they were given by Kushina, it shouldn't be a big problem."
Tsunade walked on the road and carefully read the recipe sent by Kushina.
At the same time, outside Land of Fire, Root Base.
In order to obtain more accurate intelligence to deal with the war, Danzo personally sits here.
"Sir Danzo, according to the intelligence obtained by Wandering Miko in Iwagakure, Iwagakure is planning to negotiate peace with Land of Rain in the hope that Hanzō will withdraw its troops so that Third Tsuchikage can move to the frontal battlefield where it is already at a disadvantage."
Danzo opened his closed one eye, and the sharp look in his eyes flashed away.
"In this case, then we will do our best to investigate the whereabouts of Iwa Delegation, and I will personally lead the team to intercept and kill him!"
Land of Rain Border.
Danzo looked at the Root ninjas below who rushed forward and started a fierce fight with the Iwagakure envoys.
The leader of the envoy had been beheaded by him in a sneak attack using Wind Release Shuriken. To be sent out by Ōnoki, this ninja had a high status in Iwagakure and must have some precious information in his mind.
"Master Danzo, all the enemies have been killed, please issue the next command!"
"Take care of the battlefield, remove all traces related to Konohagakure, and then create the illusion that Amegakure took the initiative to attack. In addition... you put on these Iwagakure clothes, kill all the Amegakure ninjas stationed at the border, and then go and plunder a few villages around."
"Yes!"
When it comes to playing with these tricks, Root from Danzo is the most professional.
Next, he planned to tell Hanzō what happened here, but it was modified by him.
Iwagakure attacked the Land of Rain border, killed Rain Ninja and plundered the village. Finally, he was discovered by Konoha Ninja, an ally, and successfully killed these Iwagakure, avenging you.
In this way, whether it is Iwagakure or Amegakure, what they see is the truth that Danzo wants them to see.
Hanzo of the Salamander was wearing a mask and his eyes were dull. No one could see his expression.
"If the matter is really just like what you said, just send someone to notify you. It shouldn't be necessary for you to go out personally. You should just tell me what your purpose is!"
"As an ally, you are just putting on airs at the border without even taking action yourself. This is not in line with the agreement we signed before."
"The agreement only requires that Amegakure will assist Konohagakure in this war, but there are no restrictions on me." Hanzō smiled coldly.
"Konohagakure now has the upper hand on the frontal battlefield, and Orochimaru has also successfully persuaded Kumogakure to send troops. If you don't take action, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make another profit from Iwagakure by the time the war is over."
Danzo knows that Amegakure is actually very poor now.
Even though Second Ninja War signed an alliance with Konohagakure and received certain material subsidies at the end of Second Ninja War, now Amegakure is unable to work, and Konohagakure's logistics are also facing considerable pressure, so the funding for Amegakure has been slowly terminated.
Now Amegakure has just solved the aftermath of the war two or three years ago and has regained a little strength. However, if he wants to continue development and reconstruction, Hanzō's financial resources are far from enough.
"When Kumogakure is dispatched, I can take action."
If Kumogakure is really dispatched as Danzo said, then it will be almost inevitable for Iwagakure to be defeated when faced with the pressure of two major powers.
Then when Amegakure follows along and waves the flag and beats the drowned dog, the danger is not great.
"However... Land of Rain is currently not stable internally. You have to help me solve this problem first."
The most Danzo does is to help Hiruzen Sarutobi eliminate internal hidden dangers. Hanzō knows that Danzo is a first-class expert in eliminating dissidents.
Danzo's eyes lit up. This was not a task posted by Hokage, but a private job he took on from Amegakure. It would be nice to get something here to help Root make some money.
"Land of Rain An organization called 'Akatsuki' has recently appeared. Recently, it has attracted many ninjas to join with its determination to create world peace without resorting to extreme force. It is not weak. With their development speed, given time, they will pose a certain threat to me."
"A non-governmental organization in a small country with little experience, why are you so worried?"
Danzo thinks Hanzō is a little too cautious. If it were him, he would first find a way to turn Akatsuki Organization into a force under his command. If he couldn't absorb it, he would kill him.
"Three of the top leaders among them are disciples trained by Jiraiya, one of you Konoha Sannin. I'm afraid they have a good chance of becoming truly strong."
Danzo is stunned.
Jiraiya's disciple?
Could it be the secret he left behind at Land of Rain, and when the three disciples really develop to the point where they have really replaced Hanzō, they can use this to gain the support of Land of Rain and help him ascend to the position of Hokage?
But Jiraiya doesn't look like he has ambitions for Hokage. Behind the difficulty is actually a secret plan set by Orochimaru. He just borrowed Jiraiya's hand?
With their relationship and Orochimaru's wisdom, it is indeed very possible!
In this way, these three people may be resistance to Orochimaru's competition with Fourth Hokage!
Danzo knows that Orochimaru is now in full swing, and has a high probability of becoming Fourth Hokage.
But as long as there is a 10% chance, he Shimura Danzō will not give up!
He also wanted to say something to Hiruzen Sarutobi: "Sarutobi! I am Hokage!"
After closing his eyes and thinking for a while, he decided to help Hanzō.
If Hanzō can become his personal ally outside of Konohagakure, that will also be of great help!
"It's actually very easy to get rid of them. You can even get them to come to your door obediently!"
"Oh?"
"As the leader of Land of Rain Ninja Village, you have a great reputation and can easily manipulate them."
In the name of righteousness, Danzo, who has always been for Konohagakure, said that he is very experienced.
"As long as you express your agreement with their ideas on the surface, send people to negotiate and promise to hand over a certain amount of power to them, and lead them to the appropriate place when the time comes, then... I shouldn't need to teach you!"
"Also, after the negotiation, you can ask them to send people to visit you. Then you can find any reason to delay the release of the people, and then capture them as hostages to force them to submit!"
"You can even do this..."
Hanzō under the mask looked at Danzo in front of him, dumbfounded. Konohagakure can be as strong as he is today with you, it's really not easy!
