Orochimaru responded nonchalantly as he took the scroll and opened it. As he read, his usually stoic face twisted into something more animated.
What could have happened in the camp to make even Orochimaru's features contort like that?
Curious, Jiraiya leaned in to take a look.
"Heh..."
Ignoring Jiraiya, Orochimaru chuckled after finishing the scroll. His earlier frustration seemed to lift.
Nothing like seeing Danzo in trouble to brighten your day.
"Looks like someone's having a really bad day," Orochimaru remarked, handing the scroll to Tsunade, while Jiraiya shot him a dirty look.
Couldn't you let me see it first? Would it kill you?
Tsunade took the scroll, and as Jiraiya tried to peek over her shoulder, she kicked him, sending him flying into the cave wall. The ANBU ninja present could only sweat nervously, quickly lowering his head and pretending he hadn't seen or heard anything.
"Damn it! What was that old bastard Danzo doing? How the hell did Chiyo manage to break through the camp?! And the medical unit got wiped out?!"
Tsunade was livid, hurling the scroll to the ground as she cursed out loud.
"What a rookie mistake! And he expects me to help heal him after that?"
Jiraiya picked himself up from the ground, rubbing his face as he retrieved the scroll. After reading it, he let out a sigh.
"This is just..."
He didn't even know what to say.
Tsunade was right-this was an amateur mistake. No matter how careless you were, letting the camp be breached was inexcusable.
It was one thing for the camp to be attacked-that was to be expected in a war. But for it to actually be overrun? That was a failure on another level.
The camp's defenses might not have been at full strength, but the number of Sand ninjas left in the Rain Country wasn't overwhelming either.
The breach in the camp could only be due to two factors: first, a lapse in vigilance. The sensing ninjas must have let their guard down after a long period without any attacks.
Second, the defensive forces were too spread out.
In most camps, the defensive forces are spread around the perimeter to prevent attacks. But in Konoha's camp? All the guards were clustered around the command center.
Was Danzo more afraid of dying than leading? Or was he just paranoid about being dragged off in the middle of the night and buried alive?
Orochimaru had pointed this out before, but Danzo hadn't taken it seriously.
To Danzo, he was the supreme commander, the one in charge of everything on the frontlines. His safety was paramount.
If the enemy attacked the camp, surely they would target the command center first.
Well, they didn't. Instead, they went straight for the medical unit and wiped it out.
