"What? You said Hashirama Senju came to attack us?!"
Hidden Waterfall Village, high command meeting room.
"Elders, it's absolutely true. I personally saw the God of Shinobi enter the village," a Takigakure ninja reported.
He did not know what the higher-ups had discussed earlier. He merely informed the elders so they could prepare to receive him.
After all, the person who had come this time was the God of Shinobi!
Upon hearing their subordinate's report, the higher-ups felt as though the sky had collapsed.
"That damned Kakuzu! Failing the mission was one thing, but he actually betrayed the village!" The middle-aged man clenched his fists.
He had even given Kakuzu intelligence before. Who would have thought that bastard was such an ungrateful wretch!
Although there had been nothing on the scroll, it really was the intelligence he had gathered.
Because Hashirama Senju had no weaknesses, there was naturally nothing in the intelligence.
"W-what do we do?" The white-haired elder's face turned pale as paper.
Hashirama Senju had come to Takigakure. There was no need to think about it—they knew he had come to settle the score!
After all, just two days ago, they had sent people to assassinate him.
The higher-ups had only wanted to vent their anger and use Hashirama's hand to kill Kakuzu. That was all.
They had truly never expected Hashirama Senju to come knocking!
With the God of Shinobi's strength, destroying Hidden Waterfall Village would be as easy as turning over his hand.
They began to regret their original decision.
"At this point, all we can do is insist that this was Kakuzu's personal action and had nothing to do with the village!" another elder said.
"As long as we show a good attitude and admit our mistakes, Hashirama Senju won't make things difficult for us!"
