Chapter 97 Rapid promotion, trying to get rid of the caged bird

It was rare for Orochimaru to make a loss-making transaction, and it was the kind where the wool comes from the sheep, and the feeling in it was unspeakable.

However, Li Cheye’s recent performance has attracted Orochimaru’s strong interest, and he has no plans to deal with Li Cheye for the time being.

Li Che naturally knew this, and became prosperous under Orochimaru, and got along with the Konoha ninjas around him day by day.

This has a lot to do with the reputation gained before

But some people are happy while others are sad. This person is none other than Shimura Danzo, who wants to become the Hokage of Konoha Village.

When he received the battle report from the front line and learned that Li Che had also made a great contribution, single-handedly chasing the Suna ninja army and successfully forcing them back, Shimura Danzo felt bad.

Such a speed in gaining reputation and combat achievements is simply three points better than that of Hatake Sakumo back then!

Danzo Shimura was panicked, but more importantly, he was anxious. With such a good opportunity, Sarutobi Hiruzen refused to give it to him.

“Hiruzen!”Shimura Danzo came to the Hokage’s office again,”There has been something strange in the Kingdom of Water. I must lead the troops to keep an eye on it.

You must know that there is no barrier along our eastern coastline. Once a war breaks out, it will definitely affect the civilians in our country.

Therefore, we must make plans early”

Sarutobi Hiruzen really answered the question,”On the Suna Ninja battlefield, Toru also performed very well, even better than Sakumo back then.”

“Hiruzen, what do you mean?”

“The world now belongs to young people, so it is right to give them more opportunities to exercise.”Sarutobi Hiruzen’s voice was calm, but with unquestionable determination,”My plan is still the same as before, to use more young people, we… are going to retire.”

Shimura Danzo is so angry, who retires?

You can retire after becoming Hokage, but what about me?

“Hiruzen, what you are doing is cowardly! Danzo Shimura criticized Hiruzen Sarutobi,”And this kind of behavior is very dangerous. If an accident occurs, you should bear the main responsibility. Don’t blame me for not warning you!””

“If something goes wrong, I will take responsibility for it.”Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand,”Duanzo, there is no need to say any more. Unless the battle situation on the front line deteriorates, you will stay in the village and are not allowed to go anywhere.”

“you……”Danzo Shimura slammed the table,”You will regret it Hiruzen!”

“I am Hokage. I naturally have my own decision. Follow your orders, Danzo.”

“You just hope that there will be no problems on the front line, otherwise……”Danzo Shimura turned around and left,”Your role as Hokage has come to an end!”

boom

The office door was violently closed, and Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn’t help but frown.

He can usually tolerate many of Shimura Danzo’s little moves, and it’s okay if he goes too far occasionally, but as the Hokage, he doesn’t even think about it.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is suppressing Shimura Danzo, and everyone knows this.

Let Danzo Shimura become the next Hokage of the village. This is too dangerous. Sarutobi Hiruzen dare not be careless.

After taking a moment to calm down, Sarutobi Hiruzen signed and sealed the promotion order and handed it to the communication ninja to quickly send it to the front line.

“Tetsuya, you didn’t let Sakumo down, and you didn’t let me down either.”Sarutobi Hiruzen found some solace,”The day the ninja school started, I knew you had the will of fire. Now it seems that there is nothing wrong with it.”

His mood improved a lot. Sarutobi Hiruzen handled a lot of government affairs at once. It wasn’t until he saw a few other documents that his good mood disappeared.

“This… alas!”Sighing heavily,”The situation is actually so bad. Is the village about to fall into a four-front war?”

The corners of his lips trembled slightly. Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn’t help but light up his pipe. The smoke and mist soon filled most of the office.

“There is a serious shortage of troops. Do we want to send ninja students who have not yet graduated to the battlefield?”Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned,”If the situation worsens, we can only choose to take this step.”

After thinking about it, Sarutobi Hiruzen went to his desk and wrote an order. He hoped that Orochimaru could quickly deal with the Sand Ninja troops that threatened the security of the western border.

As long as the Sand Ninja can be eliminated as quickly as possible, the situation will not collapse to the point where the war potential is squeezed to the limit.

“It’s time to call back Tsunade. Only she can cure Chiyo’s poison.”Sarutobi Hiruzen muttered in his heart, and wrote another order in handwriting,”And with her, the progress of the Sand Ninja battlefield can be faster. I hope it can be in time.”

But Sarutobi Hiruzen still made the quickest plan. The third order was to order the ninja school to speed up the training of ninjas in order to prepare for the explosion.

——

In just a few days, Sarutobi Hiruzen’s order reached Orochimaru.

Looking at the promotion documents and the latest orders written by Sarutobi Hiruzen, Orochimaru couldn’t help but raise the corners of his lips and smiled coldly.

Now that I know I’m anxious, why didn’t Hatake Sakumo make such a decisive move before he died?

But in an instant, Orochimaru returned to his normal state. He looked around and frowned again unconsciously.

“What about Li Che?” There was dissatisfaction in the voice.

“Orochimaru-sama, I am right in front of you. Li Cheye’s voice sounded,”Well, it’s three meters to your left. The one standing in front is me.””

Following Li Cheye’s voice, Orochimaru frowned deeper,”When did you sneak in?”

“I’ve always been there, you just didn’t realize it.”Li Che also had helplessness in his voice.

Orochimaru looked around and saw confusion on everyone’s faces.

Too lazy to expose Li Cheye’s little trick, Orochimaru read out the promotion documents

“Especially Jounin Ri Cheya, because of his outstanding military exploits and outstanding performance in strength, he was hereby promoted to Jounin, and Orochimaru was directly responsible for the position of captain of the ninja brigade.”

After Orochimaru read out the promotion order, warm applause erupted from the surrounding area.

Although Li Che will be ten years old in two months, he is still nine years old now

He became a Jonin at the age of nine, which was the first time in the history of Konoha. What’s more, Li Che also currently serves as the captain of the ninja team. In terms of real power, he is unrivaled among his peers in Konoha.

This is indeed the glory of this war, but without the diamond, Li Che would naturally not have the opportunity to be promoted quickly.

Opportunities are everywhere in the war years, as long as you seize them firmly and survive until the end of the war

Obviously, Li Che also caught it and had a high probability of surviving until the end of the war and gaining a higher status and real power in the village.

But when the applause ended, Orochimaru suddenly dropped the promotion order in his hand at his feet,”Li Cheye! Where did you go again!”

Logically speaking, Orochimaru shouldn’t be so irritable, it doesn’t fit with his behavior. But with so many ninjas in front of him, he had to maintain his dignity as a commander and could not act calmly.

If you don’t get a little more violent, how can you lead this team?

“That… I’ve always been there. Li Che was even more helpless,”I’m really always here.””

After taking a few deep breaths, Orochimaru ignored Li Cheye and allowed him to walk over by himself. He bent down and picked up the promotion documents from the ground.

In fact, Li Che also felt very bitter.

This month’s passive skills are also a bit too weird.

Although it is quite powerful in terms of characteristics, this passive skill has seriously affected Li Cheye’s daily life.

【Passive skills: Ranked sixth】

【Skill description: During the skill enhancement period, your presence will be reduced to the minimum, the backstab damage bonus will be increased by 100%, and a critical hit will occur with a multiplier of 150%.

Note: Once you make a sound, look at the opponent for a long time, attack, or make violent movements, the reduced presence will return to the normal level.】

【Skill duration: 30 days】 loadAdv(7,3);

【Message: You sneak attack! I was careless and didn’t dodge, otherwise I would have killed you, the old man!】

A very powerful passive skill, whether it’s a sneak attack or doing something shady, it can be considered invincible to a certain extent.

For a ninja with Orochimaru’s strength, Li Che was also three meters away from him. As long as he didn’t make any noise, Orochimaru couldn’t find him at all.

Coupled with the critical hit attribute of backstab

Orochimaru can be killed with one strike!

Even if it doesn’t work, it can still seriously injure him. Even if he is exposed during the attack and Orochimaru reacts in time, Li Che can still scare him half to death.

But Li Che, the sunny boy, also said that he could barely accept the assassination. It would be better if he could not expose himself when taking action.

With this in mind, Orochimaru finally finished the meeting and dismissed everyone in the tent.

“Orochimaru-sama, I still……”

Before Li Cheye finished speaking, Orochimaru’s snake eyes suddenly shrank, and when he turned back suddenly, the murderous intention on his body unconsciously enveloped Li Cheye.

The feeling of being locked made Li Che a little out of breath. Without the passive skill [Strengthen when strong, strength unknown], Li Che also felt a little less confident.

“when? Orochimaru quickly calmed down his momentum and warned,”Tetsuya-kun, what you just did was very dangerous.””

Of course I know this

Li Che also curled his lips in his heart, but still apologized,”I’m sorry, Orochimaru-sama, I haven’t been in the right state these days and I’ve caused you trouble.”

Orochimaru came back to his senses,”Your inner feeling… suddenly………”

As he spoke, Orochimaru’s eyes brightened slightly, and he immediately told him,”Tetsuya-kun, just stand there and don’t move. I want to take a look.””

What else can Li Che do? Just do it.

Staring in the direction where Li Cheya was, less than a minute passed before Orochimaru suddenly fell into a trance.

He could see that Li Che was clearly in front of him, but he subconsciously ignored it for a moment.

If he hadn’t been staring into Li Cheye’s eyes, he might have completely ignored it and left his back to Li Cheye without any defense.

This is a taboo for ninjas, no matter who they are.

“Tetsuya-kun, can you tell me what happened to you?”Orochimaru calmed down and asked Li Cheye the specific reason.

“It’s a sequelae from the last time I used the forbidden technique. Li Che could only find this reason,”The overdraft is a bit serious, which has reduced my sense of existence to a very touching level.””

“You call this a sequelae? Orochimaru raised his eyebrows,”This is the state that all ninjas dream of during an assassination mission.””

“I know, but this is indeed a sequelae”

Hearing Li Che speak so confidently, Orochimaru seemed to have some realization,”What you overdraw is the combined power of your life force and soul?”

Look, this is the charm of scientists, they find the answer themselves

Li Che also nodded repeatedly,”That’s it, otherwise the sense of existence wouldn’t be so low, as if it doesn’t exist.”

“Is there any chance of improvement?”

Orochimaru’s heart tightened. He also planned to treat Li Che as the ‘wind’ that stirred up the meaning of life. But in the end, he just moved a few times and he would die.

“It is expected to get better next month”

“That’s good. Orochimaru nodded, but still said uneasily,”If nothing else happens, Tsunade will be here in a few days, and you can ask her to check your body at that time.””

This is not necessary

Li Che also resisted in his heart, and immediately shook his head and refused,”I know my health well. As long as I don’t use that trick again, my health will get better next month.””

Orochimaru said nothing more, and while letting Li Che leave the camp, he also said uneasily,”Cheya-kun, you’d better not appear behind me so quietly, I’m worried that you can’t control me.” Own”

“I see.”Li Che also nodded with a grimace, turned and left.

Back in his own tent, Li Che also watched Shiranui Genma being silly with his promotion order, and couldn’t bear to tease him.

Patted Shiranui Genma’s shoulder

“ah!”

Shiranui Genma was so frightened that he dropped the thousand books in his mouth and suddenly jumped forward in a defensive posture.

“Captain Tetsuya, you’re going to scare people to death.……”Seeing clearly that the person behind him was Li Cheye, Shiranui Genma breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest hard,”I almost jumped out of here just now.”

“Haha, my vigilance needs to be improved, but my reaction is pretty good.”

Li Che also smiled unscrupulously and said,”Congratulations to you, Captain Xuanjian. Your position and strength match well.””

Shiranui Genma, Ebisu, and Metkai were all promoted. From class members, they became the leading ninjas of the class, with three soldiers under their command.

Moreover, Li Cheye’s former subordinates have all been promoted to one level and turned into team captains. Otherwise, how could they match Li Cheye’s status as team leader?

In addition, after Li Che was promoted to captain, the staff had to be expanded. Many ninjas in other teams voluntarily demoted and joined the ninja team led by Li Che.

No one is a fool. They have already seen a bright future in Li Cheye, and they are right to follow.

Among them, there is Hyuga Rin, a member of the Hyuga branch.

“Captain Tetsuya, congratulations on your promotion.” Hinata Rin opened the tent curtain and walked in,”And I’m very lucky to continue to be a member of the captain’s team.”

Li Che also nodded, but the smile on his face was not obvious.

“Rin, come out with me for a moment. I think you have something to say to me.”

Hinata Rin was stunned and immediately followed him out.

When there were only two people around, Hinata Rin smiled bitterly and said,”Captain Tetsuya is really sharp, when did you find out?”

“When you keep staring at the shadow.”Li Che also looked into Hinata Rin’s eyes and already had a guess in his mind.

“So it’s called Shadow?”Hyuuga Rin muttered, and then said in a haphazard manner,”Captain Tetsuya, do you believe in fate?”

“Believe in fate, but do not accept it.”Li Che also gave the answer very directly.

Hinata Rin froze in place for a long time, and her voice became hoarse,”I don’t want to accept my fate, but the restraints are always there, and I can’t break free.”……”

Looking at Hinata Rin, Li Che also spoke slowly,”You can tell me, maybe… I can help you think of a way”
