After racking his brains for a long time, Sasuke realized he had no ideas at all!

"Space-Time Ninjutsu is truly despicable! Ծ‸ Ծ "

Sasuke angrily slammed his fist on the ground.

Karin suddenly realized, "Sasuke, did Shinki put the Flying Thunder God Mark on your clothes? Couldn't he use the Flying Thunder God to teleport here and rescue us?!" ୧⍢⃝୨

Sasuke: "You're overthinking it. This place is in Alternate Dimension; even the Flying Thunder God probably couldn't reach here. ᵕ᷄≀ ̠ᵕ᷅ "

Suigetsu was stuffing large mouthfuls of meat into her mouth. "Why worry so much? Let's make sure we're alive first. There's always a way to survive..."

The Land of Iron.

Nine o'clock the next day.

After a night of rest and calm, the Five Kage Summit resumed.

Mifune sat at the small table, his gaze constantly drifting towards the back of a curtain.

He wondered if he should call out that mischievous red-haired Ninja from yesterday to join the meeting.

After all, judging from his attitude towards the Raikage yesterday, he seemed to be thinking of beating the Raikage up.

The other figures remained completely unmoved by the boy's unbridled behavior at the meeting!

Although Mifune wasn't a member of the Shinobi World, he knew a little about major events in the Shinobi World. He had heard about the powerful Wood Release Ninja had recently emerged in Konoha, and the various stories surrounding that young Konoha Ninja.

But when he actually met the boy in the story, he discovered that the stories seemed to be true, and the boy was even being modest!

Σ(っ°Д °;)っ

This boy is ridiculously powerful! So powerful that the Five Kage were too afraid to speak!

Such a person requires careful handling by the Land of Iron...

Tsunade, Hokage to notice Mifune's hesitation and said with a smile, "It's time, Mr. Mifune. The meeting can begin."

Mifune nodded, wiped imaginary cold sweat from his forehead, and said seriously, "Alright, let's begin the meeting and continue with yesterday's agenda..."

For some reason, the speeches of the Five Kage were much more civilized at this meeting...

Behind the curtain, Naruto and Kakashi stood here as the Hokage Guard.

Next to them was a chair, and on the chair sat a leisurely Shinki.

Not far away, Raikage, the bodyguard, looked at the Shinki with a complex expression of dissatisfaction mixed with envy.

He said indignantly, "Why can he, as the Hokage's guards, sit, while we Raikage's bodyguards have to stand...Ծ‸ Ծ"

The dark-skinned, white-haired Darui said, "In fact, the real Hokage Guards are also standing there."

"We are the Shadow's bodyguards. We need to prevent any unusual events from happening at the venue and protect our own privacy and security, so standing makes it easier to move around."

Xi: "And that Red-Haired Kid is...?"

Darui: "He's sitting here because he's not a guard. The Land of Iron gave him the title of 'Meeting Order Maintainer,' so he's sitting here to maintain order and keep the meeting running smoothly."

Xi shrugged, but he racked his brains, unable to figure out what the point of being a 'Meeting Order Maintainer' really was!

Finally, he deciphered the meaning between the lines—strength!

Because the Shinki is so powerful, the Land of Iron was afraid of offending him, so they even created a special position for him!! (°A°`)

"Alright, alright, don't think about it so much..." Darui comforted Xi.

On the other side, Naruto looked at Shinki: "Shinki, how about you stand for a while and I sit for a while? My legs are numb from standing. This kind of guard job is inhuman. =_="

Kakashi, displeased (*Ӧ)σ: "Naruto, keep your voice down! Being a Shadow Guardian is an honor! It's just standing there for a while, Ninja is to endure what others cannot..."

Before Kakashi could finish speaking, Shinki generously nodded to Naruto, "Sure, I'm bored sitting here anyway. You use the Transformation Technique to become me, and then I'll use the Transformation Technique to become you, and we can switch places. (๑╹ヮ╹๑)ノ"

After speaking, Shinki turned his gaze to Kakashi-sensei: "Kakashi-sensei, would you like to sit down?"

Kakashi: "Sit!"

It smells so good!

"It's a deal, the three of us will take turns resting, okay? ( ˝ᗢ̈˝ )"

Inside the venue.

Hokage Tsunade: "The Akatsuki is deeply rooted in the Shinobi World; eradicating them in one fell swoop will be no easy task!"

Mifune said, "I've heard the Kage's ideas. Since all the Ninja Villages have suffered greatly from the Akatsuki, why not assemble the Allied Shinobi Forces and completely wipe out the Akatsuki?!"

Mizukage Mei Terumi: "I agree with Mifune's idea of forming Allied Shinobi Forces."

Raikage A: "Isn't organizing the Allied Shinobi Forces to fight against Akatsuki a bit of an overreaction?"

Kazekage Gaara: "Lord Raikage, your brother was almost captured by the Akatsuki, and you still think the Allied Shinobi Forces are unnecessary?"

Raikage: "Kazekage brat, I've put up with you for too long! You have no manners! Believe me or not, I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of your father!"

Hokage Tsunade: "Since we're all sitting at the negotiating table as Kage, we shouldn't be talking about seniority..."

Upon hearing this, the Raikage shut up. It wasn't that he was afraid of Tsunade, but rather that he was afraid of Shinki, who was sitting behind Tsunade!

Seeing that the Raikage had fallen silent, Mifune turned his gaze to the Tsuchikage, Ōnoki: "What does the Lord Tsuchikage think about forming the Allied Shinobi Forces?"

The Tsuchikage hesitated. "To be honest, since the establishment of the various Ninja Villages, there have only been skirmishes and battles between the Ninja Villages; there has never been a history of Ninja Villages uniting..." =_="

"And now that the Allied Shinobi Forces have been formed, who should be their commander? ( ö )/"

Upon hearing this, all the figures fell silent.

The position of commander-in-chief of the Allied Shinobi Forces is of paramount importance, but the various Ninja Villages are wary of each other, each fearing that someone else becoming commander-in-chief would be detrimental to their own Ninja Village...

In fact, the first person that came to mind after this question was raised was the same person...

But that young man was neither a shadow nor experienced...

At this Kazekage, Gaara, crossed his arms and said, "I can recommend someone..."

Before the Kazekage could finish speaking, the Raikage objected, "No way!"

"We all know who you're going to recommend, but he won't do."

"The Akatsuki's target is the Tailed Beasts."

"If a war breaks out between the Allied Forces and the Akatsuki, the scene will be extremely chaotic, making it difficult to Jinchūriki."

"Therefore, Jinchūriki cannot go to the battlefield, let alone serve as commanders... and he alone has three Tailed Beasts sealed within him..."

"I know you're thinking he's strong, but apart from the Kazekage, all the Kage present have likely experienced large-scale wars..."

"In a truly large-scale war, no matter how strong an individual is, their role is limited..."

The Raikage's words made sense, but the Kazekage still wanted to counter. "What if someone's strength is truly enough to turn the tide of battle?"

Raikage: "There won't be that 'what if.' If the Allied Shinobi Forces were formed, they wouldn't need to step onto the battlefield."

The Shinki behind the curtain finally understood: the Raikage planned to hide himself and the other Jinchūriki during the battle!
