Naruto the Strongest Hatake

Chapter 168 Other ulterior motives

With Zong Hu's qualifications, it would be impossible to say that he didn't have any information.

However, at this moment, he still chose to hide his clumsiness and give Fu An the most room to play.

Then, let's see how Fu An's strength is in all aspects.

If his strength is far beyond his age, he will apply to Master Hokage to give Fu An the same treatment as his strength after completing the task and returning to the village...

……

Fu An didn't know what he was thinking.

Therefore, Zonghu's confidence in completing the task was hit when he opened his mouth.

"I think we should fly a pigeon to send a letter to Hokage-sama, let Naruto-sama send ninjas to support or temporarily terminate this mission!"

"Terminate the mission?"

Everyone was surprised.

"Could it be that the information you have shows that the few of us are absolutely unable to defeat them and successfully complete the mission?"

"Whether you can beat this is irrelevant now..."

Fu An crossed his fingers on the table, looked at his companion and said slowly: "The important thing is, the origin of those guys who ambushed our shadow clone..."

"Do we still need to explore their origins?" Gong Chu interjected, "The fact that they can gather in large numbers in the Land of Thunder is enough to prove that they are the fighting force of the Land of Thunder!"

Fu An nodded, "Indeed...

Since they are the combat power of the Kingdom of Thunder, they can barely be regarded as representing the Kingdom of Thunder to a certain extent.

So, can we think of it this way, does it mean that we were ambushed by them, does it mean that the Kingdom of Thunder has discovered our invasion? "

"..."

Seeing that everyone was thinking, Fu An continued: "In this case, once we are caught by them, once they find that we are ninjas from Muye Village in the Country of Fire, then they will definitely seize the opportunity The international community wantonly publicized that Konoha broke the truce agreement!
If the disgraceful thing Konoha broke the truce agreement spreads internationally, it will inevitably be attacked by other countries under the banner of justice, which is very detrimental to Konoha! "

Having said that, seeing everyone's serious expressions, he went further: "Also, as we all know, our Hokage-sama doesn't like war...

This means that once our existence threatens the peace of the Nation of Fire, Lord Hokage will not hesitate to put all the responsibility for violating the truce agreement on us and sacrifice us in exchange for Konoha's temporary peace! "

The mission that cost Hatake Sakumo his honor and life was a lingering nightmare in his life.

He didn't want to be a victim of the conflict of interests among major powers, and he tried to persuade everyone to follow his own advice——

Even though he wants the mission to succeed more than anyone else...

Even he also hopes that he can figure out whether the guys who attacked Konoha on the day of heavy snow came from the country of wind or the country of thunder...

Because, if it was the Land of Thunder, then Konoha's mission to attack the village at the beginning of the 40th year had nothing to do with the mission failure of Sakumo's team.In that case, most of the grievances of his father Sakumo Hatake will be washed away...

However, if it's just if, then it's not worth fighting for everyone's lives.

……

……

"Do you really think that those responsible for attacking us belong to the Land of Thunder?"

Zong Hu suddenly asked Fu An like this.

"The guys who can stop us in large numbers in the Land of Thunder, I can't imagine that they are fighting forces outside the Land of Thunder..."

"This is indeed a possibility..."

Zong Hu did not deny Fu An's opinion.

"But," after agreeing with Fu An's point of view, Zong Hu went further: "If I told you, if they were the fighting force of the Land of Thunder, the identity of our Ninja of Fire Ninja would have been leaked long ago?"

"Leaked?" Fu An made a guess.

Zonghu said disapprovingly: "If we give the Kingdom of Thunder time to investigate our usual combat moves, they will not be able to find out that we are from Konoha... So, if the enemy is the combat power of the Kingdom of Thunder, then we have already exposed.

If we expose our identities, from the perspective of the Kingdom of Thunder, they should quickly obtain evidence to blackmail Lord Hokage, saying that Lord Hokage violated the truce agreement signed by Konoha in 37.But they didn't do that..."

"Could it be because they're not quite sure who we are?"

"It is indeed possible, but..." Zong Hu looked at the team members who were listening carefully, and said in a deep voice: "If I remember correctly, the corpses of the first batch of task teams to perform this task in the village were sealed by the enemies of the Kingdom of Thunder Put it in the scroll and return it directly to Lord Hokage.

That is to say, the enemies of the Land of Thunder know that we are Konoha's ninjas, but they don't care.I also disdain to use this as an excuse to provoke a war in the ninja world... Therefore, half of them may not be the combat power of the Kingdom of Thunder. "

Gong Chu, who had only been approved by Fu An, naturally thought about the problem from Fu An's point of view, "But is it possible that they are the fighting power of the Kingdom of Thunder! And their main purpose is to prevent us from going to Yunyin Village Investigate the truth instead of making things big for everyone...

You know, if we have the truth, we can use it as evidence that the Kingdom of Thunder violated the truce agreement, making the Kingdom of Thunder a target of the five major powers—”

"It doesn't make sense..."

Frost Moon, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "If their purpose of preventing us from investigating the truth about the village attack is to cover up the fact that they violated the truce agreement, then after learning that the previous batch of missions that performed this mission belonged to Konoha, they It is entirely possible for the villain to sue first, saying that Konoha violated the truce agreement first..."

"what do you mean……?"

"I think they don't care about the truce agreement at all. They want to stop us, kill us, and seal our bodies into scrolls and send them back to Konoha, purely because they have other ulterior motives—"

Shuangyue's words, like falling rocks on calm water, instantly disrupted everyone's previous thoughts.

If it is true, as Frost Moon speculates, they have other ulterior motives...

So, what is that ulterior purpose...
