"The Land of Artisans is a neutral minor country. How can they attack it directly?!"

After a brief silence, everyone erupted into an uproar, all demanding that the three villages be sanctioned. Everyone knew the Land of Artisans was wealthy, yet their own village had received none of the benefits. The Kumogakure higher-ups found that hard to accept.

What mattered now was getting the Fourth Hokage into office quickly, taking control of the village and stabilizing it, then joining forces with Iwagakure to
