Yoru Machi knew what Tsunade wanted to say, but the Fifth Mizukage was a person of standing as well. Words spoken were like water spilled—how could she turn around now and claim it was all a misunderstanding? Did Mei Terumi not need to save face?
Even if they were to clear up the misunderstanding, they could not say it outright in a setting like this. They would have to work things out gradually afterward.
"Alright, since the Mizukage has made her choice, then with three votes, I am now the Supreme Commander of the Shinobi Alliance."
Yoru Machi's matter with Mei Terumi could wait. In any case, Tsunade believed that securing control of the Shinobi Alliance was the most urgent priority.
"I object! The Mizukage's method of making her choice is far too childish.
"We are choosing a highly respected Supreme Commander for the Shinobi Alliance, not looking for an in-law. It is utterly ridiculous for the Hokage to win the vote this way."
Seeing the Fourth Raikage jump out to voice his dissatisfaction yet again, Yoru Machi was irritated too. I've already bet my future sexual happiness on this, and you're still fucking whining?
"Lord Raikage, aren't you being a little too unreasonable? You were the one who agreed to a vote in the first place, and now that the results are out, you are still the one objecting.
"I had heard that the AB Brothers of Cloud Village were straightforward men who never went back on their word. It seems that is not quite the case after all!
"If Lord Raikage has so many objections, then perhaps we should not form this Shinobi Alliance at all. Konoha, together with the Mist and Sand, should still have enough strength to protect ourselves in the coming war."
"You bastard..."
