Sneaky Bastard!!!
Just as everyone was exchanging bewildered glances, Gaara's voice suddenly rang out from outside the Hokage Office...
"Sister! Are you there?! It's my brother-in-law! Pshaw, it's me Gaara! Sister, open the door!!"
Because Gaara is Makoto Ito, which is called "brother-in-law," he has changed how he addresses Tsunade recently. He no longer calls her "Hokage," but "older sister"...
Tsunade heard Gaara's voice and was somewhat puzzled...
"Please come in!"
As soon as Gaara entered, he saw a group of Konoha's bigwigs, as well as a short guy named Ōnoki...
The moment I saw the jungle tree, my pupils shrank instantly!
That despicable Ōnoki, he just allied with the Raikage to attack Konoha, and now he's pretending to be a hero, huh?
But Gaara was completely dumbfounded the next moment...
Because he heard Tsunade speak directly to him...
"Gaara, you've come at the right time! The Tsuchikage just said that the Raikage wants to join forces with the Land of Earth to attack Konoha. Has the Raikage contacted you yet?!"
Gaara looked at Ōnoki with some surprise when he heard Tsunade's words!
Holy shit!!! You old bastard!!!
He just agreed to join forces with the Raikage to attack Konoha, but then he betrayed the Raikage?
You beat me to it!!!
You're fucking a real idiot!
Ōnoki, seeing Gaara's awkward expression, coughed twice...
"Cough cough... cough cough..."
After calming himself down, Gaara slowly began to speak...
"I'm here because of this! The Raikage just spoke to me... telling me that they've allied with the Land of Earth to attack Konoha, and they also want to ally with our Land of Wind! That's why I'm here to talk about this!!!"
Upon hearing Ōnoki Gaara exclaimed, "Sixth Brother!!!"
You son of a bitch!
Fortunately, I rushed over to clarify my position!
Otherwise, wouldn't we be screwed over by that idiot Raikage?!
They found two people to form an alliance, but both of them turned out to be on Konoha's side...
As expected, the people of Kumogakure are brainless!!!
They've been sold out, and they're even helping the idiot count the money!
Otherwise, if Gaara had spoken first about his plan to ally with the Land of Lightning, Gaara would have been unable to explain himself no matter how many mouths he had!
If Madara Uchiha then thinks he's a fickle and treacherous person, wouldn't he skin himself alive?!
Ōnoki hurriedly stood up and said indignantly!
"That Raikage is practically asking for death!!! Why don't we just attack now and finish him off!!!"
Madara Uchiha simply crossed his legs.
"Hokage, what do you say?! If you want to kill him, then I'll take action right now!"
Gaara panicked upon hearing their conversation! "Damn it, we can't fight!!!" he cried. "I haven't even received the money yet!!!"
"Senior! Could you please wait a moment?! Let him jump around for a while first..."
Madara Uchiha and the others were somewhat puzzled...
"Why?"
"Gaara," I said somewhat embarrassedly...
"Esteemed seniors, you should all know that our Land of Wind is poor!!! The Raikage promised me that he would send 2 billion before the talks! In exchange for our Land of Wind agreeing to send troops! I've agreed! Once I get these 2 billion, we'll take on the Land of Lightning!"
Everyone was completely dumbfounded after hearing Gaara's words!
Madara Uchiha into laughter...
"You little rascal, you're really cunning! You just took the money and didn't do the job! Hahahaha!!!!"
I, too, just chuckled and shook my head...
"There's no other way, senior. After all, our Land of Wind is poor! This is 2 billion! That's enough for our Sand Village's annual revenue! So, can we wait a bit? Let me get the money first, and then I'll feign an attack and then turn around and attack the Land of Lightning!"
Madara Uchiha nodded upon hearing Gaara's words...
"I don't care at all, whether it's a day earlier or a day later, it doesn't matter!"
Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing Gaara's words...
Tsunade spoke up from the side...
"Then let's wait until after the talks, until you get the money, and then we'll jointly launch an attack on the Land of Lightning!!!"
But at that moment, Ōnoki slammed his fist on the table!
"Damn Raikage!!! This is outrageous!!! The Land of Wind pays for sending troops! What's wrong with the Land of Earth?! Does he look down on us?!"
No, no! I need to go back and have a serious talk with him about sending troops! If he doesn't give me 2 billion, I won't send troops!!!
Upon hearing Ōnoki's words, Madara Uchiha into laughter...
"To be honest, he might as well not have given you the money at all! He gave you the money, you sent some troops, and then you turned around and attacked him! Isn't that a complete traitor?!"
Upon seeing Ōnoki, he immediately stood up...
"Hokage! I'm going to talk to the Raikage first! That son of a bitch, he didn't give me any money!!! I'll make him send me 2 billion! Once he sends the money, we'll jointly attack the Land of Lightning!!!"
Hokage! I'm going to ask for the money now!!!
Senior Madara! This junior will be leaving now..."
After greeting everyone...
And so, Ōnoki left the Hokage's office building in a flurry of activity...
