NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 37: Orochimaru, I'm Sorry
"What is the plan for the collapse of Konoha? Tell me clearly!" Third Generation asked loudly.
When it comes to the safety of Konoha, Third Generation no longer cares about killing Mizuki.
Danzo's eyes flickered and he said: "Hiruzen, don't be deceived by him. He definitely made up the Konoha collapse plan."
"He wants to create panic and rely on false intelligence to get away with it. You absolutely cannot trust him."
Mizuki smiled and said: "Elder Danzo, why are you in such a hurry? Are you also involved in the plan to collapse Konoha?"
As soon as he said this, Third Generation's eyes froze, and he turned his head, staring at Danzo with his eyes like a hawk.
Danzo's face was expressionless, but his eyes evaded for a moment.
"Mizuki, as an elder of Konoha, how dare you slander me!" Danzo shouted.
He also said to Third Generation: "Hiruzen, Mizuki has no dignity. I suggest that such a person be executed directly."
Third Generation had realized something, took a deep look at Danzo, and then turned to look at Mizuki again.
"It is related to the safety of the village. This matter must be investigated."
"Mizuki, tell me everything you know."
Danzo hurriedly shouted: “Hiruzen, you can’t be fooled.”
"Danzo!" Third Generation shouted in a low voice: "The safety of the village is more important than anything else!"
"In view of your repeated inappropriate remarks, please leave the meeting room now. You are no longer suitable to continue participating in this meeting."
Danzo's eyes widened and he said angrily: "Hiruzen, I am here for the village."
"You will regret it if you don't convict and execute him!"
Third Generation said coldly: "Danzo, I am the Hokage!"
"Now, leave immediately!"
Danzo was furious, stood up and pointed at Third Generation, wanting to continue saying something.
The advisors of the two committees couldn’t stand it anymore.
Utatane Koharu said: "Danzo, you are indeed not suitable to participate in this meeting. You should follow Hokage's order and leave!"
Mitokado Homura also said: "Yes Danzo, the safety of the village is the most important. Whether it is true or false, it must be investigated clearly, so Mizuki cannot die now."
Danzo had no advantage in one fight against three.
But he was still unwilling.
"It is an indisputable fact that he secretly read the "Book of Sealings" and learned the Flying Thunder God Technique. He must be executed."
"If you want to know what the Konoha Collapse Plan is, why not kill him first and then let Haiichi explore his memory?"
"Wouldn't this be more certain of the authenticity of the information?"
As soon as these words came out, Jōnin's expressions changed slightly.
Not to mention whether it was true or false that Mizuki peeked at the "Sealed Book", even if it was true, he would not have to die.
Even if someone has committed a capital crime, he should be given a chance to atone for his crime.
Third Generation slapped the table and shouted: "Danzo, shut up and get out now!"
Seeing that Third Generation had made up its mind, Danzo knew that it was useless to say anything, so he had no choice but to turn around and leave.
"Hiruzen, you're going to regret it!"
After saying the last words, Danzo slammed the door and walked out.
Third Generation: "Mizuki, now tell me everything you know. If what you said is true, then the crime of peeking at the "Sealed Book" can be exempted."
Mizuki smiled.
This level has been passed.
So, Orochimaru, I'm sorry!
"On that day, Orochimaru suddenly appeared in the Land of Waves, bringing with him a boy named Kimimaro. That boy was pregnant with the Bloodline Limit Dead Bone Pulse..."
"The purpose of Orochimaru was Uchiha Sasuke. He killed three Anbu and planted a curse seal on Uchiha..."
He recounted some of the battle situations that day. Of course, some changes were made.
"I hid in the dense forest and overheard Orochimaru's plan."
"During the Chūnin exam, he united with Sunagakure of the Wind Country to launch the Konoha Collapse Plan to completely destroy Konoha."
Third Generation's expression did not change.
He was very confident that even if Sunagakure came out in force and combined with Orochimaru, it would not be enough to destroy Konoha.
Even if Konoha is defenseless, it will never be destroyed.
The background is there.
But he also knew Orochimaru's character. Since he said he wanted to destroy Konoha, he must have some trump card.
Third Generation asked, "Besides that, what else did you hear?"
Mizuki continued: "There is support from within Konoha, and Sunagakure will send the strongest weapons!"
Third Generation raised an eyebrow and thought to himself: There is someone inside Konoha who is taking over, who is it? And the Sand Shinobi’s most powerful weapon, One Tail Shukaku?
Even the tailed beasts have to participate, so it's no small matter.
Third Generation is finally getting serious.
Third Generation asked again: "Is there any more?"
Mizuki frowned and said: "At that time, Kimimaro asked Orochimaru: Orochimaru-sama, it is rumored that the Third Hokage is the strongest in the ninja world and the strongest Hokage. Can we and Sand Shinobi succeed alone?"
"Orochimaru smiled at that time and replied: If we and Sunagakure are alone, it is impossible to succeed. But I still have two trump cards. Even if the Third Generation is strong, they will never be able to defeat me."
Third Generation asked hurriedly: "What trump card is it?"
Mizuki smiled and stopped answering.
A look of irritation flashed on Third Generation's face, but he was helpless.
"Tell me everything you know, and I will forgive you for peeking at the Book of Sealings."
Mizuki looked at Third Generation and said calmly: "I have never peeked at the "Book of Sealings". I don't know the so-called Flying Thunder God Technique. The technique I master is called Displacement. Advanced ninjutsu of Body Replacement Technique.”
"Sir Third Generation, there is no need for forgiveness for unfounded crimes."
Third Generation is anxious and wants to know what Orochimaru's trump card is.
But now, Mizuki used this to threaten him to change his story, which filled him with anger.
He finally compromised and said, "Show it and let everyone see if it is the Flying Thunder God. This will prove your innocence!"
When saying this, Third Generation felt aggrieved.
Mizuki smiled, turned around and finally focused on Sarutobi Asuma.
The next moment, the apparation was activated, and his and Asuma's positions were exchanged.
Everyone's pupils shrank suddenly, even the Third Generation.
Although he had learned about Mizuki's apparation through intelligence, the shock of seeing it with his own eyes was completely different.
At this time, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Mizuki.
With this ninjutsu alone, Mizuki definitely possesses Jōnin, or even exceeds Jōnin's lethality.
Why was Namikaze Minato able to achieve great military exploits during the Third War and then successfully ascend to the position of Hokage?
Isn’t it just relying on the Flying Thunder God Technique?
"It's not the Flying Thunder God Technique!"
Third Generation finished speaking and announced: "Mizuki is not guilty of peeking at the "Sealed Book"."
His heart was bleeding when he said this.
How many times has it happened? Why does Mizuki never die? Why?
"Thank you, Master Hokage, for giving me the opportunity to prove my innocence."
Third Generation waved its hand and said, "Now, tell me Orochimaru's two trump cards."
Mizuki nodded and continued: "At that time, after Orochimaru said there were 2 trump cards, Kimimaro asked what they were."
"Orochimaru smiled and replied: It is said that the Third Generation is the strongest Hokage, but it is not true. The Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato is not weaker than the Third Generation. The First Generation and the Second Hokage are far stronger than the Third Generation."
Third Generation frowned and asked, "Why did Orochimaru suddenly talk about the strength of the Hokage in the past?"
Mizuki smiled and said, "Kimimaro asked the same question at that time."
"Orochimaru replied: Since he is the ace, of course he is stronger than the Third Generation. Who do you think is stronger than the Third Generation?"
"Kimimaro said: According to what Orochimaru-sama just said, the ones who are stronger than the Third Hokage are the First Hokage and the Second Hokage, but they are already dead!"
At this time, Third Generation seems to have realized something, but has not yet fully figured it out.
Mizuki continued: "Faced with Kimimaro's question, Orochimaru's answer was: They are indeed dead, but who says dead people can't fight?"
As soon as these words came out, Third Generation stood up with a sudden look on their face.
No one else present could understand why Third Generation reacted so strongly.
Some Jōnin also started talking.
"Why does it sound so unscientific? How do dead people fight?"
"Could Orochimaru have a way to resurrect the First Generation and Second Generation?"
"Could it be that the corpses of the First Generation and the Second Generation were stolen and made into puppets? It is said that there is a puppet master in Sunagakure who has mastered the method of making puppets from corpses and can use the abilities of the corpses in life."
"Where did you hear that puppet masters are not that powerful?"
…
At this time, Third Generation's brows had gathered together, and he looked very impetuous.
Mitokado Homura said: "Mizuki, did Orochimaru say anything else? Did he explain in detail the technique of fighting with the dead?"
Mizuki shook his head and said, "That's all he said."
Homura wanted to ask something else, but was interrupted by Third Generation.
"Okay, no need to ask anymore, I already know Orochimaru's plan."
At this time, Third Generation already believed 99% of Mizuki's plan to collapse Konoha.
Because there is a lot in what Mizuki said that cannot be made up.
Like, let the dead fight.
Even if the two consultants don't know something, Mizuki will never know it.
But since Mizuki knew it, he definitely wasn't making it up casually.
"Today's meeting ends here. No word of the content of the meeting is allowed to be revealed."
"Mizuki has done a great job in bringing back such important information."
"I announce that Mizuki will be rewarded with one million taels of gold, and will be rewarded with the ninjutsu Earth Style and Tulong Spear. Mizuki's ninja level will also be upgraded from Chūnin to Special Jōnin."
"The meeting is over!"
Seeing Third Generation walking out of the conference room first, a hint of sarcasm flashed across Mizuki's lips.
