It is unknown what content was exchanged between the two. When Kabuto returned to Orochimaru, Saoi followed the two of them on the road and walked towards the distance.
It's just that they didn't notice that a figure with no chakra fluctuations on his body, and who looked like a dead piece of wood to their perception, was dotting them far behind.
"As for what happened before, I still hope you can give me an explanation."
When everyone was resting a little further away from the Tianchi Bridge, Yamato finally couldn't suppress the doubts in his heart and asked Qi Zhen bluntly.
The battle on the Tiandi Bridge just now was too loud, especially the giant bomber that had never appeared in this world. In this cloudless weather, it was enough for people several miles away to see it.
Originally, they were lurking within the sphere of influence of the Grass Ninja Village. Naturally, it was inconvenient for the ninjas of the Grass Ninja Village to discover their existence, so they stayed away from the Tianchi Bridge as soon as the battle ended.
Including the matter of air support, Yamato, Qi Zhen and the others were very confused about the strategy adopted by the four of them in this battle. However, fortunately, the result was good. No one else was injured except him and Qi Zhen, so they were not happy about it. There is not much element of doubt.
But this does not mean that he turns a blind eye to what Qi Zhen and the other four are doing.
In fact, when a Konoha action team completes a task together, no matter whether it is one or two teams, there must always be one person in an absolute decision-making position.
And this is the core reason why he organized everyone to conduct a pre-drill yesterday.
As a result, Naruto was hidden by Sai Zhen without telling him, and he turned into Naruto. He did not follow the established strategy at all and confronted Orochimaru. And when did Zaka hide in the Tianchi Bridge? Bottom?
Not to mention Liang Sicheng, a character who was relatively inconspicuous in Konoha's daily tasks could actually have such terrifying killing power. It shocked him so much that he even questioned the decision given to them by the Hokage at that time. level of accuracy.
How can such a terrifying guy not be given the rank of jounin?
"I don't want to say much about our affairs. The key is that you may not understand it if I tell you. But please rest assured that we only have good intentions towards Konoha and have the same goal, which is to prevent the destruction of this world. Yu once." Qi Zhen pondered for a moment and then answered.
"Please tell me carefully, otherwise I may refuse you to join us in this mission. After all, this mission was not ordered by Hokage-sama. As the captain, I have the right to suspend this mission." Yamato said reluctantly.
Qi Zhen sighed helplessly. If Yamato really gave up the entire mission at once, then we don’t know what the game will become. This time the reunion of the old class 7 actually has no influence on the subsequent development from the plot point of view. A very huge influence, but nothing is absolute. If we don't look for that guy Sai, he is still under the influence of the "root", then the next plot may not develop like that.
"I can't say too much. If you can understand a few simple sentences, you will understand. If you can't understand, I can't do anything." Qi Zhen said slowly.
"Go ahead," Yamato said.
"The reason why we will hide Naruto and what kind of attack strategy we will adopt in the future is because we already knew that Orochimaru would appear here this time." Sai Zhen said, "As for our attack method, in fact, we cannot easily Appeared in this world, you have also seen the power of that thing just now, this is not something that should appear in this world, no matter how much I can say, I can't say anything more."
Yamato began to think silently, while Sakura frowned and asked, "Since you knew Orochimaru would appear here, why didn't you tell us in advance?"
Qi Zhen cried out in her heart, would it be okay if I told you about this kind of thing? There was an incomprehensible expression on his face as he shook his head.
It seems that he felt that it was closely related. Yamato pondered for a moment and then said: "I accept your explanation, but can I make a suggestion?"
"you say."
"If something like this happens in the future, or if you have any special arrangements, can you tell me in advance in a more obscure way?" Yamato asked tentatively.
Qi Zhen said nothing, but still shook her head firmly.
"No way..." Yamato sighed.
"I don't know." Qi Zhen replied.
"It's too difficult to be the captain, otherwise you can do it." Yamato said.
Zhaka stepped forward and patted Yamato on the shoulder. The meaning was very clear, we will not bear the blame.
The group of people rested for about two hours and then hit the road again. Yamato put his fingers gently on his temples and seemed to sense the location of the wooden escape clone. After the two sides communicated for a long time, Yamato walked in one direction.
If it weren't for the fact that this skill was exclusive to the Wooden Ninja Blood Succession Limit, Qi Zhen had actually thought about using this communication method as the team's in-game communication medium.
Although the current method of using headphones is still convenient, it is not as fast and labor-saving as the method of electrocardiographic sound transmission.
From the location of the Grass Country Tenchi Bridge, go straight to the northeast, bypass the core village of Kusano Ninja Village, and you will officially enter the northeastern part of Grass Country. If you continue in this direction, you will arrive at Takino Country. within the territory.
The country of Taki does not have a strong presence in the entire story of Naruto, but in a plot similar to OVA - I Am a Big Hero, a very interesting story was written around this country.
To the southwest of the Taki Country is the Country of Grass, to the east is the Country of Frost, to the southeast is the Country of Fire, and to the west is the Country of Earth.
Not only is it surrounded by four countries in the center, its north is also close to the sea, and the shape of the entire country is much larger than that of the Grass Country. However, the magical thing about this place is that it has almost always been in a state of indifference, but it is harmonious. Kawa no Kuni is somewhat similar.
In fact, this is also because of the landform.
Unlike the countless rivers and dense vegetation in the Land of Sichuan, the landscape that prevents war here is waterfalls.
The terrain of the entire Takino Country is high in the south and low in the north, and the gap is very huge. In addition, there is abundant rainfall all year round, which leads to the formation of many waterfalls with huge height differences in the entire country. This is also the name of Takino Country. The origin of the word "Long" is the rapid water.
The core of the country of Taki, the Ninja Village of Taki, is hidden in the largest waterfall in the country.
In addition, Kakuzu in the Akatsuki organization is the rebellious ninja of Taki Ninja Village.
The further they moved forward, the heavier Yamato's expression became. Probably he did not expect that Orochimaru would find such a place to establish a stronghold.
"Stop." At a certain moment, Yamato suddenly said.
"Where?" Sakura asked hurriedly.
Yamato smiled bitterly, no wonder no matter how hard Konoha Village searched these years, it was difficult to find traces of Orochimaru. It turned out that he was hiding in a place like this.
"They are currently at the junction of Earth, Taki, and Grass, the three countries, leaning towards the Earth Kingdom." Yamato said.
Qi Zhen instantly understood the reason why Yamato smiled bitterly.
From the map, it seems that the borders between countries are not actually very long, but in the real world, this is not the case. Orochimaru very smartly chose the place where the borders meet, just to avoid them. The best way to detect other forces.
Thinking back to the real world, there are many cases like this. Sanjia zones are always the most difficult for the government to manage. They might even cross the border and cause dissatisfaction in other countries. Most criminals in such places have no choice but to deal with them. Choose to turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye.
For example, the Golden Triangle, and the Mekong River.
The reason why he chose to go to the Earth Kingdom was probably Orochimaru's careful consideration. The Grass Kingdom and the Takino Kingdom were too small, and compared to the vast and sparsely populated Earth Kingdom borders, they were more disorderly and poorly managed.
In fact, Konoha Village also faces the same dilemma. Although the national border is right there, if people are not sent to patrol around the clock, it will be difficult to find ninjas from other countries lurking in. This is a Something that makes people feel helpless.
If there hadn't been seeds placed on Sai's body, and if the Mudun clone hadn't been following them, it would have been difficult for them to discover where the other party was hiding.
Even if you know Orochimaru's hidden patterns, it's useless. There are many places like this in the world. If you really have to follow the border and search inch by inch, if you can't find it, you can drag the Konoha ninja away. collapse.
Therefore, no matter from any angle, they must not miss the opportunity to pursue Orochimaru and Sasuke this time. If they miss it this time, they don't know that they will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Moon next time.
The group of people continued to move forward. Judging from the speed of movement, although they were not in a hurry, Orochimaru seemed to be more calm. This directly caused the distance between the two parties to be shortened from about three hours to less than two hours. .
When they stepped into the territory of the Kingdom of Earth, a desert appeared in front of everyone.
This game is very consistent with the setting in the anime. Apart from other things, the borders between countries are not excessive at all. From the dense grass half a person tall to the desert, it is really a straight line.
After walking for about half an hour, Yamato finally stopped.
"We're here," Yamato said.
Next to it, a desert plant suddenly changed and turned into the appearance of Yamato.
"Where?" Sakura asked.
Yamato said nothing and pointed at his feet.
"It will get dark soon. After all, we are in his territory. Fighting at night is not good for us. How about taking a rest for the night and infiltrating tomorrow?" Yamato suggested.
Naturally, everyone in the team had no objections. Anyway, they were following the plot and there would be no accidents at night.
Naturally, Yamato will not build a mammoth three-story building this time, but it is not difficult to build a simple windproof residence.
