The moment Granny Chiyo and her group arrived, the Anbu relayed the news to him. Ronglin had them escorted to a small meeting room, then headed there himself with Uchiha Diqin.
The vast Hokage's Office Building contained numerous rooms, including several meeting rooms that could be selected according to the number of people present.
"Lord Hokage, they have been brought here."
Before long, the Anbu member returned to the meeting room. Ronglin, seated at the head of the table, waved a hand.
"You may leave."
"Yes!!"
The Anbu member departed, and Granny Chiyo's group entered the meeting room.
With everyone present, Ronglin rose to his feet and smiled.
"You have come all the way to Konoha from afar. Please, have a seat first."
"Thank you for your concern, Fourth Hokage."
Granny Chiyo sat down directly, while the others remained standing. Like Uchiha Diqin, they stood behind Granny Chiyo, Baki included.
There were no seats for them here, nor were they qualified to take one.
Judging by Granny Chiyo's manner, she wished she could get straight to the point immediately, skipping even meals and rest.
Ronglin had no objections to that. The sooner this was resolved, the sooner he could take Shisui to the Land of Rain. Shisui had already been waiting so anxiously these past days that he was beside himself. He could not disappoint the boy again.
"I already know why you have come. So, Granny Chiyo, how do you intend to persuade me?"
Since they had gotten to the main issue, Ronglin, as the host, spoke first.
"After the war ended, Konoha and Sunagakure signed many agreements. And whenever there were benefits to be had, I, Uchiha Ronglin, never forgot Sunagakure. But Rasa's actions have truly chilled my heart."
Here came the problem!
Granny Chiyo sighed inwardly before
