The Talks Begin

"This guy..."

Kitsuchi looked at his father with twitching lips.

The other guards had varying expressions.

"This Hokage seems like a cute guy, but why does he talk like that..."

Kazekage's bodyguard looked at that face, which was even cuter than a girl's, and didn't know what to say.

"What a pity you have a mouth."

Cheng, who was standing nearby, spoke for her, saying what she couldn't say herself.

Isobu: Finally, someone understands me.

"That Hokage's words are really nasty, and the Tsuchikage's manners are quite good. If it were me, I would have rushed up and killed him long ago."

Trode of Kumogakure clenched his fists, immersing himself in the Tsuchikage, and realized that he truly could not tolerate such an insult.

As for the Hokage...

Kakashi, who was busy eating sunflower seeds and trying not to drop the shells on the meeting floor, said, "I'm used to it."

This is nothing compared to what happened. You know, just during the journey, Kazashiro mentioned that Uchiha Hikari was so angry that he drew his Ninja Blade to kill him multiple times, and even summoned Susanoo once.

"A quick-witted brat."

Ōnoki's face finally darkened, and he could no longer maintain the demeanor of an elder.

"Alright, Hokage, let's get down to business."

Just as Ōnoki was about to break free of the Tsuchikage's restrictions and unleash his inner Zaunite, Yekura Pakura up at the right moment, depriving Ōnoki of his outlet for venting.

That's so satisfying; you can insult someone and they can't even talk back.

Kazashiro nodded in satisfaction, then took out a scroll from his pocket and handed it to Mifune.

After confirming that there were no traps or hidden weapons inside, Mifune returned it to the other party.

As the documents sealed in the scroll were taken out, Kazashiro first handed them to Yagura.

Then, taking advantage of everyone's curiosity about what was written inside, he briefly described the origin of the Ōtsutsuki and their connection to the Shinobi World.

It particularly emphasizes that Madara Uchiha may have been involved in the conspiracy to resurrect the Ōtsutsuki.

Unfortunately, while the people here may not know much about the Ōtsutsuki, they certainly know about Madara Uchiha.

If he told Ōnoki that the Ōtsutsuki, the Tsuchikage would definitely stubbornly insist that he would use Dust Release to give them a good thrashing.

But if Kazashiro says that Madara Uchiha is not dead and is still a long way from us, the Tsuchikage will definitely announce his joining the Allied Forces immediately and call on the entire Shinobi World to fight against the enemy.

Just as Kazashiro had predicted, Ōnoki, who was originally furious, turned deathly pale after hearing that Madara Uchiha was also involved.

"Madara Uchiha..."

Having boasted many times about how he and the previous Tsuchikage single-handedly Madara Uchiha, he once again recalled that encounter from his youth.

The other figures also looked extremely solemn.

"But what evidence is there...?"

"The Dawn Organization, currently active in the Shinobi World, is Madara Uchiha's proxy. Its leader's true identity is Uchiha Yaowan, a rogue ninja from Konoha. Meanwhile, another key member Uchiha Setsuna, has already been killed by us."

Uchiha, it's Uchiha again.

Upon hearing this surname, Ōnoki felt a surge of hatred.

Why are things always so bad for this clan?!

"At the same time, when the Fourth Hokage was attacked, some members of the Uchiha clan responded to his call and joined that organization."

A bunch of Uchiha gathered together—what they're up to is self-evident.

It's definitely not going to eat.

Knowing how powerful the Uchiha Ōnoki was, Onoki realized that what the Otsutsuki had said was true after obtaining the Ōtsutsuki's documents.

Although it was a simplified version, some key evidence was still presented to them.

"The Ōtsutsuki... even the Sage of Six Paths, who possessed the power of a sage, was merely a descendant of that clan..."

Seeing how powerful the Ōtsutsuki Dodai, Kumogakure weren't so bad after all.

"This matter concerns the survival of the ninja world, so I hope that all villages can take this opportunity to suspend their frictions and focus on dealing with the powerful enemy before them."

Kazashiro explained the purpose of the meeting.

He didn't want to mess with Old Man Ban, nor did he want to fight Ōtsutsuki, so the best solution was to throw this hot potato into the public eye and let someone capable handle it.

There's nothing he can do; he's just a weak Ice Release Kekkei Genkai, lacking the power of Naruto and Sasuke.

"That sounds nice..."

Ōnoki knew that this matter was urgent, but out of emotion, he still quietly objected.

"Tsuchikage, now is not the time to act rashly."

Yagura's expression also turned solemn. He hadn't expected that the Dawn Organization, with which he had had brief contact before, would have such a powerful background.

The other members of the group had also heard of this organization to varying degrees and had had various contacts with them.

Therefore, their complexions were not very good.

"Can we really face Madara Uchiha and the Ōtsutsuki on our own?"

The Dodai murmured something.

"We have to be able to, even if we can't, otherwise death will be all that awaits us."

Kazashiro replied directly, "To revive Kaguya Otsutsuki, she needs to collect Nine Tailed Beasts. Our Konoha currently possesses the Three-Tails, Seven-Tails, and Nine-Tails- Tailed Beast. I wonder if any of your villages have..."

To show his sincerity, Kazashiro frankly admitted that he had already obtained the Three-Tails Seven-Tails.

"How dare Konoha!"

Ōnoki was about to slam his fist on the table, but seeing Kazashiro's expression, his momentum faltered. "The Four-Tails Jinchuriki, Roshi, are unknown."

It seems that this old rival is now in grave danger.

Realizing that Roshi was beyond dead, Ōnoki began to miss the person who Tenten criticize him.

"One-Tails has been lost."

"The Six-Tails Jinchuriki has left."

"The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki is safe."

The other figures also shared information about their own villages.

"It seems the enemy has already obtained the One-Tails, Two-Tails, and Four-Tails, and may even have acquired the Six-Tails..."

The situation doesn't seem as bad as I've imagined.

Yeah, right.

Kaguya Otsutsuki is no longer a concern, but what about Isshiki is even more terrifying than Kaguya?

"In that case, why don't we form an alliance and work together to deal with the Ōtsutsuki?"

Mifune suddenly spoke.

"I deeply admire the fact that you Kage are willing to meet here so frankly. Isn't this the perfect opportunity to achieve lasting peace in the Shinobi World? All villages should put aside their differences and work together towards a common goal. Isn't this exactly what Lord Hashirama wanted to see?"

Kazashiro wanted to give Mifune a thumbs up after hearing these words.

Are you perhaps possessed by the Mangekyō Sharingan of light, or are you some kind of spirit pillar molecule?

Taking on the Ōtsutsuki collectively is definitely much better than sending them one by one.

Moreover, the current Five Kage are still somewhat stronger than the weak and pathetic ones in Boruto: Naruto Next Generations.

With such a group of people, whether it was Elbow Old Spot or Elbow Momoshiki Isshiki, Kazashiro always had some confidence.
