Before long, Kushina and Minato appeared in the conference room, with Sage Fukasaku and Sage Shima standing on Minato's shoulders.
With several big shots present, the clamor died down.
Kushina sat in the seat of honor, but she was merely a figurehead and left the task of leading the meeting to Minato.
Everyone was somewhat puzzled, especially Hozuki Gengetsu, the Second Mizukage.
By rank, Minato was still a jonin. He felt that Kushina was meddling in politics from the harem.
Gengetsu asked Kushina, "Sect Master, where is the Second Hokage?"
Kushina said, "grandfather Tobirama is doing something very important. Don't worry! He'll appear when Ryobu attacks!"
Hearing this, everyone felt reassured.
They had all guessed what Tobirama would do.
Impure World Reincarnation the First Hokage!
It was obvious. Kushina could not defeat Ryobu, and Ryobu wanted to destroy the Ninja Sect. Naturally, the Ninja Sect could not let him have his way.
Reanimating the dead violated ethics. No matter what, the Ninja Sect was the current leader of the righteous path in the Ninja World and held sway over public opinion.
How could they do something that violated ethics?
But they could not defeat Ryobu in theory, so they would use ethics to solve something that could not be solved in theory.
Nothing wrong with that!
Only Orochimaru's expression was utterly gloomy. The last Reanimated Person of Hashirama had been his doing.
After Hashirama died, Orochimaru had wanted to collect Hashirama's corpse.
Tobirama had guessed that Orochimaru wanted to reanimate Hashirama, so he refused to hand it over, claiming that he did not want to disturb Hashirama's rest.
What a joke. The Hashirama who had been revived once possessed Truth-Seeking Orbs. Even Madara with Rinnegan could not defeat him.
If Orochimaru got hold of that corpse, the entire Ninja Sect
