In Konoha Camp...
Orochimaru led Uchiha Lei through the camp, preparing to look for Hyuga Mie and Nawaki!
Orochimaru felt that Uchiha Lei was no ordinary person, so he probed:
"Lei, Demigod Hanzō is at our Konoha border right now. How do you think we should drive him out?"
Uchiha Lei glanced at Orochimaru and thought with some hesitation:
What is this? Why ask me?
Is he testing me? Whatever. I'll have the Mangekyō Sharingan soon!
Uchiha Lei replied:
"It's simple. You, Tsunade, and Jiraiya should summon your summoning beasts and fight Demigod Hanzō together!"
"Even the three of us aren't confident we can drive him back! Will that work?"
Orochimaru thought Uchiha Lei made a lot of sense, so he pressed him with another question!
Uchiha Lei suddenly thought of Shimura Danzō and wanted to see what he was capable of, so he continued:
"If that's not reliable enough, have Lord Danzo join you. Wouldn't that do it?"
"Lord Danzo? He probably won't fight!"
Orochimaru spoke with some regret!
True enough. Shimura Danzō is a sneaky one!
Who knows whether he had a secret hand in Amegakure's attack this time?
After inwardly griping about Danzo, Uchiha Lei continued with a chuckle:
"You could take me along too. At least you'd have one more fighter!"
"Lei, you're quite right. Once Tsunade's antidote is distributed, we'll take you with us!"
Orochimaru agreed with a smile. He felt that there was definitely more to Uchiha Lei than met the eye!
Chatting and laughing, the two arrived at the entrances of two tents ahead!
There, Hyuga Mie and Nawaki were preparing for a duel!
As it happened, Uchiha Lei wanted to see just how strong Nawaki was, given that he had actually been blown up by Explosive Tags in the show!
