Settling Cause and Effect

"If I said he wasn't confident, would you panic?"

Mei Terumi's playful remark made all the Kage present breathe a sigh of relief.

If Mei Terumi could still joke around, it meant there was no major problem on Ye Liangnai's end.

Otherwise...

Mei Terumi would never still be joking here.

"Still, this man called Otsutsuki Toneri is far too terrifying. He keeps talking about destroying the entire Shinobi World. Are people from beyond the Shinobi World all this arrogant?"

Kurotsuchi said indignantly.

She was utterly baffled. Out of nowhere, they had encountered such a strange madman, someone who could simply put his claim of destroying their Shinobi World into action.

Why did such a powerful madman even exist in this world?

It was far too unfair.

For them, this was simply something that drove people to despair.

"Perhaps the thoughts of the strong have always been this direct and resolute."

Kakashi sighed. Whether it had been Madara Uchiha or Obito Uchiha back then...

Or Otsutsuki Toneri now, they had all been the same.

Powerful...

And resolute!

"Still, even if Ye Liangnai can handle this Otsutsuki Toneri, we absolutely cannot let down our guard!"

Kakashi's expression was grave. "It would be fine if nothing goes wrong on Ye Liangnai's side, but if even the slightest mistake occurs and the moon is destroyed, it will mean the end of our Shinobi World!"

The other four Kage all nodded at his words.

"Let's hope Ye Liangnai can deal with him!"

Aside from Mei Terumi, the other four Kage had placed great hopes on Ye Liangnai.

Meanwhile, Konoha...

Still had an extremely important task at hand: recovering Hanabi Hyuga.

Hanabi Hyuga had been taken by Otsutsuki Toneri, and they had to bring her back.

There could be no accidents!

Kirigakure, deep in the mountains...
