Five Kage Summit
This Five Kage Summit was brought forward by several years, but the Five Kage this time had a rather intriguing air about them. After all, it was clear to everyone that this was a scheme orchestrated by the Tsuchikage, Raikage, Kazekage, and Mizukage to ensnare Konoha.
This time, the Five Kage Summit, with each of the Five Kage accompanied by two bodyguards, all amidst a blizzard.
In the Land of Iron, the flags representing the Five Great Ninja Villages fly atop a towering castle amidst a blizzard.
The temperature inside the castle contrasted sharply with the blizzard outside.
The five flags—water, wind, fire, earth, and lightning—represent the Five Great Ninja Villages of the Shinobi World, and each flag has a shadow hat representing its respective village on a seat beneath it.
"The Five Kage Summit shall now begin!"
A majestic voice echoed as General Mifune of the Land of Iron presided over the Five Kage Summit. He frowned and looked at the arriving Five Kage with a solemn expression.
This Five Kage Summit was clearly intended to create chaos in the Shinobi World, but circumstances dictated otherwise. The Tsuchikage Onoki, chose this location for the Five Kage Summit: firstly, the Land of Iron was neutral, and secondly, it was for the safety of Uchiha Yoru.
Within the Land of Fire, the area controlled by the Uchiha Clan is located on the border of Mist Ninja, which borders the Land of Iron.
"I am the person in charge, Mifune, and now we will start the Five Kage Talks." As a neutral country, I am the host of this Five Kage Talks. Mifune sat under the word "Servant" and looked at the Five Kage with a solemn expression to announce the start of the meeting.
Meanwhile, in the U-shaped seating arrangement were the Third Hokage Tsuchikage Onoki, the Fourth Raikage, Ay, the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, the Fourth Mizukage Karatachi Yagura, and the Fifth Hokage Uchiha Yoru, acknowledged by all Four Great Ninja Villages.
The guards of the Five Great Ninja Villages stood behind their banners, solemnly watching Shinobi World highly anticipated Five Kage Summit. This was the second such summit in the Shinobi World, having only been held once before, during the time of the First Hokage.
During this Five Kage Summit, the other Kage secretly kept a close eye on the legendary Mangekyo Uchiha.
Uchiha Yoru, dressed in white with his Kusanagi Sword tucked into his waistband, calmly gazed at the crowd.
"Gentlemen, regarding this Five Kage Summit that I proposed, I must first make one point clear!" The first to speak was none other than the most senior Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki.
Although he was rather short and had a large red nose, the Third Hokage Tsuchikage Onoki, was in no way inferior in terms of presence. After surveying the crowd with an imposing and dignified expression, he finally fixed his gaze on Uchiha Yoru.
"I must express my deepest abhorrence of evil human experimentation, especially the human experimentation to steal Kekkei Genkai. I do not deny that various countries have done it during times of war and hostility, but it has never been done to Kekkei Genkai ninjas within my own village!"
At this moment, Ōnoki shouted with an air of righteous indignation, while the other Kage remained calm, but the guards he brought with him all looked somewhat embarrassed.
This Tsuchikage seems a bit shameless; he's clearly implying that Root Danzo Konoha Root conducted unauthorized Human experimentation and stole the Sharingan and Wood Release techniques.
As for Uchiha Yoru, the protagonist of this story, he not only did not refute Ōnoki's shameless speech, but also nodded in agreement.
"That's right. Neither the five great Shinobi World Five Great Ninja Villages nor any other large or small ninja villages have ever conducted Human experimentation on their own comrades."
Each of the Five Kage was a cunning and shrewd old fox, and they all remained calm as if they were evaluating an evil event. However, the guards brought by the Kage of each of the major ninja villages were all embarrassed and blushed.
Human experimentation has always existed in the Shinobi World; it's just that smaller ninja villages lacked the technology and funding, while larger ninja villages had always conducted it secretly. However, it's untrue to say that there were no Rogue Ninja among their own villages.
"Hmph! Ōnoki, shut up."
The Fourth Raikage Ay, known for his volatile temper, slammed his fist on the table in anger and roared, "If I discover any such evil incident occurring in Kumogakure, I will wipe it out with swift and decisive action!"
The seemingly rude Fourth Raikage Ay, was clearly taking the opportunity to stir up trouble, relying on his own rude temper.
As a seasoned and shrewd old man, Ōnoki could easily see through it. He immediately nodded with an expression of agreement, then turned his gaze to Hokage Uchiha Yoru.
"Here, I would like to express my sympathy to Hokage Uchiha Yoru, after all, Root Danzo's actions cannot be described as merely cruel."
It's obvious that Kazekage Rasa is secretly supporting the internal strife in Konoha, the Land of Fire. However, he is currently the weakest and is being controlled by Konoha. So, despite his silence, he is actually the one who most wants Konoha to be in trouble.
The Fourth Mizukage, Karatachi Yagura, had his head down and a gloomy expression, radiating an aura that kept strangers at bay.
Seeing the Tsuchikage Onoki and the Raikage A stirring things up, Uchiha Yoru gradually revealed a cold smile. He slammed his hand on the table, and the dull thud instantly silenced the Five Kage Summit, causing everyone to turn and look at him.
"Gentlemen, I don't want to waste time on idle talk at this Five Kage Summit, after all, Konoha is still in some turmoil."
Uchiha Yoru calmly looked at everyone and said, "I won't go into the details, as you all probably already know. I only came to this Five Kage Summit because the Third Tsuchikage and the Fourth Raikage spoke out in support of Konoha. Time is of the essence, and every second I stay here increases the chances of change in Konoha."
"I'm facing some problems right now. I need all kinds of war supplies: medical supplies, ninja tools, medicine, Explosive Tag, and food."
Good heavens, Uchiha Yoru blatantly asked for something right in front of the four Kage of the Four Great Ninja Villages, and he did it so confidently, as if they owed him something.
This scene made Might Guy, dressed in a green bodysuit behind the fire banner, blush and feel a little embarrassed. He even whispered to Itachi beside him, "Itachi, do you think becoming a Kage requires this?"
Might Guy's voice was soft, but everyone present was a ninja. However, the Five Kage had honed their shamelessness to perfection, so there wasn't a ripple in their expressions.
The guards brought by the other Kage were different. The Tsuchikage brought Akatsuchi and his granddaughter Kurotsuchi, clearly wanting to broaden his granddaughter's horizons.
But the young Kurotsuchi's eyes widened, especially after hearing the voices coming from the Konoha guards, and he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Seeing the looks on everyone's faces, Kurotsuchi suppressed a laugh as she watched the Five Kage Summit, muttering to herself, "Indeed, perhaps becoming a Kage requires this, but the Hokage is really cool."
The Fourth Raikage's two bodyguards Darui and Shi, exchanged a glance and remained calm. The Kazekage's bodyguards were Baki and another unknown Sand Ninja.
The bodyguards behind the Fourth Mizukage were wearing masks and were clearly elite members of the Mist Ninja Anbu.
Among the guards from the Five Great Ninja Villages, the most attention-grabbing is Uchiha Itachi, the Hokage's bodyguard, who is said to have awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan at the age of twelve.
The young Uchiha Itachi remained calm and composed, saying, "Gai-senpai, mind your image."
"Ahem, I understand." Although Uchiha Itachi didn't mean anything by it, Might Guy realized that what he said was a bit inappropriate in front of so many people, and he scratched his head awkwardly.
Everyone looked at this somewhat comical Konoha Jonin dressed in a green bodysuit. Although they were curious, no one dared to underestimate him.
Might Guy is considered a legendary ninja of Konoha, possessing Konoha Forbidden Technique Eight Inner Gates. Although they had never witnessed it, they knew the power of Forbidden Technique, let alone their sudden bursts of Forbidden Technique.
During the Five Kage Summit, even the neutral representative, General Mifune of the Land of Iron, couldn't bear to watch and closed his eyes, pretending to listen attentively, though in his heart he also thought the Five Kage were all shameless.
This young Hokage Uchiha Yoru, clearly knew the intentions of the major ninja villages, yet he used that as leverage to brazenly demand supplies from the Kage of the Four Great Ninja Villages. It was simply outrageous.
"Hokage, before you shamelessly demand supplies, isn't there something you need to explain?"
At this moment, facing the Hokage Uchiha Yoru who was demanding supplies with a perfectly justifiable attitude, the Fourth Mizukage, Karatachi Yagura, although he had a baby face, was someone no one dared to underestimate.
"Your Excellency seems to have a very close relationship with Mei Terumi, the leader of the Mist Ninja Rebel Army. Even your management system is exactly the same as, or even surpasses, that of the Konoha Military Police Force. According to intelligence, the Uchiha Clan has been conducting long-term trade with this Rebel Army in recent years."
As the Fourth Mizukage, Karatachi Yagura, launched into a somber interrogation, everyone's attention was instantly drawn to him. Uchiha Yoru, however, with an air of righteous indignation, shouted, "Fourth Mizukage, this is normal trade between us!"
"Furthermore, given the system of rejecting Kekkei Genkai ninjas in Mist Ninja and even the entire Land of Water, it's conceivable that there would be resistance. Moreover, this Rebel Army is entrenched on the ruins of the Land of Whirlpools, so the Uchiha Clan has never interfered in the political affairs of the Land of Water."
Good heavens, the entire Shinobi World knows that you two have a close relationship, and there are even many rumors that you two have actually joined forces, and some say that the Uchiha are planning to transform Konoha into Kekkei Genkai limit ninjas, and so on.
However, Uchiha Yoru, now in front of some of the most influential and highest-ranking Kage in the Shinobi World, is blatantly lying, feigning ignorance and innocence. How could he have interfered in the Kirigakure of the Land of Water?
However, at this moment Tsuchikage Onoki, the Raikage A, and the Kazekage Rasa pretended to be dumbfounded, as if they couldn't understand at all.
Admiral Mifune of the Land of Iron sighed inwardly and shook his head inwardly. This was no Five Kage Summit; it was clearly a meeting of thugs.
"Ahem, since the Fourth Mizukage has brought this up, I've also heard about it. Why don't you all hear my opinion?"
Just then, Ōnoki revealed a sincere smile, but everyone saw his treacherous nature.
"The Land of Water currently embroiled in constant warfare due to the influence of the Kekkei Genkai Rebel Army, which is an undeniable fact. However, the Hokage of Konoha also has a point, since the Uchiha never directly intervened, and the transaction was conducted at the ruins of the Land of Whirlpools."
At this moment, Ōnoki looked at everyone with a mischievous grin and couldn't help but say, "Since the Third Shinobi War Shinobi World War, the Shinobi World has finally enjoyed peace. The current turmoil in Konoha and Mist Ninja is something that neither I nor any of you want to see, and it's something the entire Shinobi World doesn't want to see either."
"You, Ōnoki, don't want to see internal strife in Konoha and Mist Ninja? You probably wish the entire Shinobi World would be in chaos." The Kage guards from various ninja villages muttered to themselves, truly witnessing the shamelessness of a Kage today.
"However, the Kirigakure Mist Ninja Kekkei Genkai Ninja legion entrenched in the Land of Whirlpools follows the Will of Fire of the Hokage of Konoha, which is an indisputable fact. At the same time, since your Land of Water Fourth Mizukage rejects and cannot tolerate Kekkei Genkai ninjas, why don't I, the Raikage, and the Raikage act as Kazekage?"
"For the sake of peace and stability in the Shinobi World, and for the stability of Mist Ninja and Konoha, it would be better to acknowledge the Mist Ninja entrenched in the Land of Whirlpools."
At this point, the shameless Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, turned around with a sincere smile and looked at Uchiha Yoru, saying with a laugh, "Since Your Hokage has a very close relationship with this force, why not merge it into Konoha?"
"Of course, we only recognize the territory of the Land of Whirlpools ruins, not the territory of the Land of Water!"
At this moment, although Ōnoki did not say anything, the Kage guards all widened their eyes after hearing these words, and couldn't help but exclaim in their hearts, "How utterly shameless!"
This is hardly a peacemaker; it's clearly Konoha Mist Ninja Mist Ninja Konoha, creating a third force between these two major powers.
Acknowledging Uchiha Yoru's identity Hokage was inherently intended to divide and weaken Konoha, yet they then allied with the Mist Ninja Rebel Army. It's practically like creating a third ninja village.
Or rather!
Many of the Kage were secretly alarmed, cold sweat trickling down their temples. It seemed that this Tsuchikage was planning to bring the Sixth Great Ninja Village to the scene.
This sixth great ninja village was established by absorbing the blood of the two great ninja villages, Mist Ninja and Konoha. To put it bluntly, they didn't lose anything. On the contrary, Konoha and Mist Ninja split up and another force emerged.
The Third Hokage Tsuchikage Onoki, shamelessly grinned at everyone, acting as if he were a peace-loving person. This scene made Kurotsuchi feel so embarrassed that she wanted to clench her toes and disappear into the ground.
"Yes, Tsuchikage Onoki is quite right. Recently, the Shinobi World has been in turmoil because of your Mist Ninja and Konoha. It's been several years since the end of the Third Shinobi War, and we still can't enjoy peace in peace."
The rough-around-the-edges Fourth Raikage, Ay, also slammed his fist on the table in anger, shouting as if he were upholding justice.
The Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, nodded calmly and said, "Indeed, this may be the key to peace in the Shinobi World."
Even Uchiha Yoru turned to the Fourth Mizukage with a smile on his face and said, "What the Tsuchikage, Raikage, and Kazekage said is correct, but on this basis, the Mist Ninja Mizukage needs to reach a reconciliation with the Kekkei Genkai ninja at the ruins of the Land of Whirlpools."
At this moment, the four Kage of the Five Great Ninja Villages all nodded in agreement, while the Fourth Mizukage looked at everyone with a grim expression.
At this moment, not only the Fourth Mizukage, but also all the Kage's guards and Mifune understood one thing: before coming here, the four Kage had secretly reached some kind of agreement, and the only one who would be tricked was the Fourth Mizukage.
"Hmph! It seems the Tsuchikage, Raikage, and Kazekage were prepared all along, and so was the Hokage!"
The Fourth Mizukage, Karatachi Yagura, stared coldly at the Three Kage with a gloomy face, finally fixing his gaze on the Hokage Uchiha Yoru.
"The Hokage hasn't even resolved his own problems, yet he's already scheming about other things. Isn't he afraid of getting burned?"
The warning was particularly serious; it was clear that the Fourth Mizukage would not allow another force to emerge at his doorstep.
But now the other shadows have tacitly accepted it.
The Hokage of the Land of Fire Uchiha Yoru, was not in a favorable position. The area he could control was only the region adjacent to the Land of Water, which meant he controlled at most a quarter of the Land of Land of Fire's territory.
The forces supporting Tsunade, one of the Sannin Tsunade, were numerous: the Third Hokage's faction, the Land of Fire Daimyo's Mansion, and countless neutral ninjas.
The appearance of Tsunade even directly caused the wavering neutral ninjas of Konoha to turn to her side. After all, Tsunade herself had connections and a prestigious background, making her arguably the most distinguished ninja in Konoha.
