Chapter 51: Conversation with Minitoe.

Yasu and Orochimaru discussed for a long time inside the tent.

Yasu also unknowingly immersed himself in the conversation, offering many suggestions.

By the time they finished discussing, it was already late at night.

Orochimaru decided to execute the tentative plan to raid the Hidden Hot Spring Village tomorrow night.

After the discussion, he said to Yasu: "There's one thing you said wrong."

During the process of discussing with Orochimaru, Yasu learned quite a lot.

There were also many loopholes in the plan proposed by him.

Orochimaru came up with ways to solve these loopholes that could cause the mission to fail one by one.

So, hearing him say that he was wrong about one thing, Yasu felt it was normal.

Since his teacher brought it up, then he should have already thought of a solution.

"The methods I proposed are indeed not rigorous in many places, so which side is the problem?"Yasu agreed and asked.

Orochimaru shook his head, and said with a smile: "What I'm talking about is not the plan. In my opinion, the current plan is already the best we can do."

Yasu asked in confusion: "Not a mistake in the plan? Then what mistake is it?"

Orochimaru said seriously: "You said before that Konoha's reinforcements are just me, but that's wrong. Besides me, Konoha's reinforcements also include you. Your judgment of the situation is really a pleasant surprise to me."

"As a leader, strength is not the standard of measurement. The standard of judgment is the overall view and the judgment of the situation. You have the potential to be a leader. In my opinion, this war will become your springboard. You will become an extremely important figure in this war, and your name will be known throughout the ninja world."

Yasu said with a smile: "If I can become famous, then that would be great."

They now had a great understanding, and both of them understood each other's intentions.

If he could become famous in this war, then he would naturally enter the core circle of Konoha.

And Orochimaru also needed a companion to enter the core circle to help him cover up certain things.

...

Yasu then left the tent and planned to take a rest.

After rushing for so many days, and discussing the plan with Orochimaru as soon as they arrived here, he now felt a little tired, not to mention that they would have to raid the Hidden Hot Springs Village tomorrow night.

His resting tent had already been arranged.

While heading to his tent, his eyes suddenly narrowed slightly.

In front of him, stood Minato, seemingly waiting for him.

Yasu didn't understand why he was waiting for him. It seemed that there was nothing they could talk about.

Minato walked up to Yasu, with a sunny smile on his face, and said to him: "Yasu, I didn't say hello to you just now. It's been a long time since we've seen each other."

Yasu raised an eyebrow and asked: "Does it matter whether we see each other or not?"

Minato choked, but his smile never disappeared: "We are comrades from the same village, and we were also rivals in the ninja school. I have always regarded you as a friend."

The corner of Yasu's mouth also raised a smile, and he said unceremoniously: "I don't have friends. On the contrary, I hate you very much."

Hearing him say directly that he hated him, the smile on Minato's face disappeared, and he asked in confusion: "Why do you hate me? Is it because of that incident at the ninja school? But so many years have passed, haven't they?"

Yasu sneered: "So many years have passed, so I should forget about it? I am a very vindictive and a pity person. I keep track of all the debts. I will repay those that can be repaid on the spot, and I will find a chance to repay those that cannot be repaid."

Minato stared at Yasu and asked: "Is it because of Kushina? The two people back then have already been punished. Why do you have to dwell on it? After all, we are from the same village. Even if we are not friends, we should be comrades."

Yasu said sarcastically: "Minato Namikaze, you are really generous. But indeed, that's why you are so popular, you can become friends with everyone. People like me, who are on the fringes, are fixated on what you consider to be minor conflicts. You must think I'm unreasonable, right?"

Minato frowned: "I didn't say that, and I haven't thought like that."

Yasu sneered: "In my eyes, you are a hypocrite. Perhaps you are definitely refuting it in your heart, thinking that I just have a problem with you and I belittle you as a hypocrite, but your actions are no different from a hypocrite."

Minato's brow furrowed even tighter: "What exactly have I done that makes you see me this way?"

Yasu just looked at him in silence then said: "Let's not talk about the past for now, let's just talk about now. You just opposed my plan, probably because this plan may cause many casualties, right?"

Minato nodded silently, indicating that he was not wrong.

Yasu then spread his hands: "That's good, that's your proof as a hypocrite."

Minato was completely bewildered by his answer: "How did this become my proof of being a hypocrite?"

Yasu shook his head helplessly: "I don't know if you really don't understand or if you're pretending not to understand. Before Teacher Orochimaru and I came, the situation in the Land of Hot Water was already very bad. If it continues like this, the number of people who sacrifice will only increase."

"As long as this plan is successful, the Cloud Ninjas will not act rashly again, and we will no longer be so passive. The number of causalities afterwards will only decrease. And if we don't seek change and try to advance the front line, let alone the people who sacrifice here, once the all-out war starts, after the Cloud Ninjas break through the border of the Land of Fire and completely enter it, how many people do you think will die?"

"You can do the most basic arithmetic, right? Compared to the people who are injured and killed here, compared to the people in the Land of Fire, you should know which is more important, right?"

Minato said seriously: "Yasu, they are people, not numbers!"

Yasu looked at him speechlessly then laughed, laughing louder and louder, and finally simply covered his stomach and laughed.

He laughed so hard that he couldn't catch his breath: "Minato, I apologize to you, you are not a hypocrite, you are really kind."

Minato was silent, but the unhappy expression revealed his current dissatisfaction.

After he laughed enough, Yasu said: "I know you don't like me either. Let's not pretend, you and I, who don't like each other, you are just thinking of contacting me because we may be fighting together in the future."

"Okay, that's it, I don't want to say anything more to you, I'm going to rest."

He then passed Minato and walked straight to his tent.
