After listening to the Raikage's speech, Tsunade asked, "Where does the Raikage plan to place the Jinchūriki during wartime?"

"Within the Land of Lightning, there is an island whose true form is a Giant Tortoise, suitable for Jinchūriki to train and hide on..." the Raikage replied.

The Tsuchikage, sitting not far away, nodded and said, "In that case, let's follow the Raikage's arrangements."

Shinki then stepped forward. "I don't think I need to hide." ⊙_⊙

Tsunade looked at Shinki, gesturing for Shinki to be quiet. "Don't tell me what you think, tell me what we think."

Shinki was speechless:=_=

Seeing that the members of the meeting had made up their minds, Shinki said nothing more.

Since they think the Allied Shinobi Forces Akatsuki, they might as well enjoy a leisurely life...

If the Five Great Shinobi Villages joined forces, they should be able to wipe out the Akatsuki! ୧⍢⃝୨

Moreover, he's too lazy to do things that don't bring him any benefit.

"So, who should be the commander-in-chief of the Allied Shinobi Forces?" asked Gaara, the Kazekage.

Mifune, representing a neutral nation, suggested, "The Tsuchikage is too old, and the Kazekage is too young..."

"And Kirigakure, which is under the command of the Mizukage, is the birthplace of the Akatsuki. Having her as its commander is somewhat inappropriate..."

"Let's choose the commander-in-chief from the Hokage and the Raikage."

As Mifune finished speaking, the Tsuchikage, Mizukage, and the other two nodded in acquiescence.

Actually, everyone knows that choosing between Hokage and Raikage isn't difficult.

After all, the Hokage is backed by that red-haired boy...

However, the commander of the Allied Shinobi Forces cannot be chosen solely based on 'background'; his abilities in various aspects must also be considered comprehensively.

Hokage, the Tsunade, has flaws, including a gambling addiction in her early years and a bad temper...

Compared to the Hokage, although the Raikage's temper isn't much better, at least he doesn't have any bad habits...

Mifune was torn between the Hokage Mifune the Raikage; as a representative of a neutral country, he didn't want to offend either side. "How about we vote?"

At that moment, Tsunade, who was sitting next to her, smiled nonchalantly and said, "No need."

"Let the Raikage be the commander-in-chief of this Allied Shinobi Forces. I usually find handling village affairs too difficult, let alone leading the Ninja from various villages..."

With Tsunade taking the initiative to express her opinion, things become much easier.

Mifune: "Alright, let's discuss the composition of the Allied Forces and the commanders of each department..."

Several more hours passed, Five Kage, their tongues dry from talking, finally finalized the organizational structure of the Allied Forces and the leaders of each department.

The supreme commander was Raikage A, the strategist was Hokage Tsunade, Kazekage Gaara served as the commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces...

Following that are the five major Ninja squads.

The First Division is a mid-range combat unit, mainly composed of Ninjas skilled in concealed weapons and other weapons. Its captain is Darui, the Raikage's bodyguard.

The Second Division is a melee Ninja unit, mainly composed of Ninjas skilled in close combat, and its captain is Kitsuchi (Iwagakure).

The Third Division is a short-to-medium range support unit, mainly composed of Ninjas skilled in physical strength and speed, and its captain is Kakashi Hatake from Konoha.

The Fourth Division is a long-range support unit, and its leader is also the Kazekage Gaara.

The Fifth Division is a special combat unit composed of Ninjas skilled in secret Ninjutsu and Samurai from the Land of Iron. Its captain is Mifune, a Samurai general from the Land of Iron.

In addition, there are Medical Division, Intelligence Division, Sensing Division, and Surprise Attack Division, led by Shizune from Konoha, Inoichi Yamanaka, and Kankuro from Sunagakure Kirigakure, respectively...

After confirming all the leaders, Mifune said, "Then please, all Kage, return to your villages and take inventory of your combat personnel, and strive to complete the formation of the Allied Shinobi Forces as soon as possible..."

Mei Terumi stretched and yawned. "I'm exhausted, I've never had a meeting this long before..."

Just as the meeting was about to end, Shinki, who was sitting in his chair, suddenly froze and looked at the ground beneath the feet of everyone in the room!

The next moment!

"Splash!"

The floor of the venue was lifted up, and a strange, enormous plant grew out of it!

This sudden scene startled everyone.

Then, the plant's strange leaves parted, revealing a person with deathly pale skin inside!

Shinki's pupils contracted slightly; he recognized this person!

(≖╻≖;)

This is... absolutely amazing?!

But why only half?

I've seen the Akatsuki's Absolute Shinki before. The person wrapped in that strange plant possesses extremely bizarre Ninja Art, seemingly able to move freely underground. Moreover, his left and right sides are black and white, making him look nothing like a normal person!

But only today did Shinki realize that the body, with its two completely different colors, could actually be separated!

After emerging from underground, the half-body monster excitedly shouted, "Hello everyone! (๑╹ヮ╹๑)ノ"

The words had barely left his mouth.

"Whoa!!"

Raikage's body, which was originally in his seat, transformed into a phantom, while his true form had already arrived in front of White Zetsu and smashed down with a punch!

"Splash!!"

A punch imbued with Lightning Release Chakra shattered White Zetsu's body into pieces!

The White Zetsu, who shocked everyone upon its debut, is dead!

The nearby Shinki, who possessed Chakra sensing, exclaimed in alarm, "Something's not right!"

When the White Zetsu's body was smashed by the Raikage, something seemed to have been released.

"Shinki, did you find something?" Tsuchikage Ōnoki asked, looking at Shinki.

After carefully sensing the surroundings, Shinki shook his head. "I didn't sense anything, but I certainly won't come here to die for nothing. You all need to be careful of any strange phenomena that may occur in your bodies. If anything unusual happens, come find me."

Everyone nodded in agreement, after all, besides being a Sensor Ninja, Shinki also possessed extraordinary Medical Ninjutsu.

When White Zetsu appeared, the meeting was nearing its end. Now, with this unexpected turn of events, the meeting was prematurely ended to prevent Akatsuki from intervening in the Five Kage Summit.

Mifune said, "Everyone, you can go back and rest now."

However, no sooner had Mifune finished speaking than an unnamed disturbance occurred in the space behind him!

Then, an Akatsuki member wearing Orange Spiral-Patterned Mask appeared!

The moment he saw this person appear, Shinki formed a hand seal!

"Dust Release: Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!!"

"Whoosh!"

The change happened in an instant!

A cube of White Light instantly enveloped the Masked Man, then shrank and annihilated him!

From the moment Shinki made his move to the Masked Man's body disappeared, it took less than a second!

The Tsuchikage on the side: ヽ( ຶ▮ ຶ)ノ!!

The technique this kid is using looks so familiar!!

So he asked, "Little... kid, what spell did you just use? (꒪⌓꒪)"

Shinki answered matter-of-factly, "It's Dust Release. I have to thank Grandpa Tsuchikage for teaching me back then; this technique is incredibly useful! ꉂ(ˊᗜˋ*)"

Tsuchikage:!!∑(°Д°ノ)ノ

Don't make false accusations!

When did I ever teach you to use Dust Release?!

Soon, Ōnoki remembered the time when Shinki had asked him to demonstrate Dust Release!

Wait, he learned it in just one go?! ⊙▽⊙

After figuring it out, Ōnoki felt like dying! _(´ཀ`" ∠)__

I have truly let my master down!

They actually managed to get Konoha Ninjas to master Iwagakure's Secret Techniques! (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`)
