Time passed quickly, and a week passed in the blink of an eye.
After Sunagakure was jointly surrounded by Uzushiogakure and Amegakure, it ended with Chiyo surrendering and admitting defeat. On the third day after that, Jiraiya, one of Konoha Sannin, came to Amegakure's base camp in person and handed over the armistice agreement.
Although Hanzo of the Salamander was unwilling to do so, he still held his nose and agreed.
Of course, it is not that Mingyue Takenaka will no longer help Amegakure, but that if the fight continues, Amegakure can no longer withstand the consumption.
It can also be said that Konohagakure, Sunagakure and Amegakure, the three parties no longer want to fight anymore, so Uzushiogakure intervened strongly at this time, instantly allowing all three parties to explain themselves.
Therefore, an armistice is inevitable and widely expected.
In Amegakure's base camp, from the main position, Takenaka Kaguya's clone quietly watched the three parties sign the armistice agreement, and immediately said to Mingyue Takenaka and Hanzo of the Salamander: "Since you have signed the armistice agreement, the rest will be left to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mingyue Takenaka immediately nodded in agreement and said respectfully, "Thank you, father, for making the trip yourself."
Takenaka Kaguya waved his hand and said, "There is no need to say such things between you and me as father and daughter."
"Yes." Mingyue Takenaka smiled and nodded. She was just polite. After all, she had agreed from the beginning not to disturb her Pops. However, in order to make Sunagakure and Konohagakure take the armistice agreement seriously, she still invited her own Pops.
At this time, Hanzo of the Salamander quickly came to Takenaka Kaguya, saluted solemnly and respectfully and said, "Thank you Lord Takenaka for relieving me Land of Rain of the worries of war. I am very grateful to you."
"Haha, Hanzo, don't say that. When the hidden villages besieged me Uzushiogakure, you rushed to help without hesitation after receiving the message. Now that you are in trouble, we should also help you.
Okay, the armistice agreement has been signed, let's lead Land of Rain to develop well with peace of mind. If you still need help later, you can contact my Mingyue directly. As long as it is reasonable, I don't think he will reject you." Takenaka Kaguya said with a smile.
He quite admires the person Hanzo of the Salamander. This life is not like Hokage's self-destruction in the original work, which is good.
"Congratulations Lord Takenaka!" Hanzo of the Salamander responded, then quickly saluted to say goodbye to Takenaka Kaguya.
However, just when Takenaka Kaguya was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly heard Chiyo say quickly, "Lord Takenaka, please stay!"
"Oh?"
Takenaka Kaguya stopped and turned to look at Chiyo.
Facing Takenaka Kaguya's calm and profound gaze, Chiyo, a strong Kage Level, felt as if his heart had stopped.
Finally, she quickly suppressed the fear in her heart, looked directly at Takenaka Kaguya and saluted. "Lord Takenaka, regarding the fact that we Sunagakure participated in the siege of Uzushiogakure two years ago, it was indeed our Third Kazekage fault. For this, we Sunagakure also paid the price.
Not only was Master Third Kazekage killed by leader Mingyue Takenaka, but also our only Sunagakure, One-Tail Jinchuriki Bunpuku, was captured.
People cannot be resurrected after death. Lord Third Kazekage's death is considered his own fault, but please Lord Takenaka return our Sunagakure's Jinchuriki.
Jinchuriki is related to the life and death of Sunagakure. Without the existence of Jinchuriki, we Sunagakure cannot effectively deter the small and big countries around us.
Therefore, as long as Lord Takenaka is willing to return our Sunagakure's Jinchuriki, we are willing to accept any conditions Lord Takenaka you put forward."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned at first, and then everyone reacted and looked at Chiyo and Takenaka Kaguya, wondering if Takenaka Kaguya would agree to Chiyo.
Under the gaze of Takenaka Kaguya and the gaze of Conqueror's Haki, Chiyo felt as if someone had grabbed hold of his heart.
After peeking into Chiyo's inner thoughts through Advanced Observation Haki, Takenaka Kaguya admired the center of Sunagakure for Chiyo.
However, do you still want to take back the things that are in his hands?
Shaking his head, Takenaka Kaguya rejected Chiyo's proposal and said solemnly, "You should feel lucky that you only lost one Third Kazekage and Tailed Beast Jinchuriki.
That is to say, I haven't had too much murderous intention in these years. Basically, as long as everyone can keep their face, I don't bother to care.
Otherwise, you Sunagakure would have ceased to exist long ago.
So, don't think about returning Tailed Beast Jinchuriki or anything like that!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the murderous intention gradually emanating from Takenaka Kaguya's body. Chiyo's body couldn't help but tremble, but Ebizo stood up and quickly explained, "Lord Takenaka, my sister does not mean to be disrespectful to you, but Jinchuriki is indeed very important to us Sunagakure, so as long as you are willing to exchange, we Sunagakure are willing to pay the price."
"Haha, in the short term, you still don't want to take Jinchuriki back.
Let's do this, I don't like to use my power to suppress others. Twenty years from now, you can come back to Uzushiogakure to discuss the exchange of Jinchuriki!"
After saying that, Takenaka Kaguya's figure suddenly flashed and disappeared quickly.
After Takenaka Kaguya disappeared, Chiyo couldn't hold on any longer. Her feet went soft and she almost collapsed on the ground. Fortunately, Ebizo had quick eyesight and hands to support her, so she didn't make a joke.
"Alas!"
Chiyo sighed heavily, unable to exchange One-Tail Jinchuriki back, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
However, the situation is stronger than the people. No one in Sunagakure can compete with Takenaka Kaguya, so they are destined to suffer this loss.
As for what Takenaka Kaguya said, going to Uzushiogakure twenty years later to talk about One-Tail Jinchuriki's exchange, in her opinion, this is just an excuse.
"Sister, don't think too much, no matter what, we are still alive, aren't we?" Ebizo looked at the lost Chiyo and said softly with relief.
"Well, let's go, it's time to go back and deal with the mess in the village." Chiyo said with a sigh, then said goodbye to everyone, and returned to Land of Wind with Sunagakure's large army.
After another day, Sunagakure and Konohagakure handed over all the compensation in the peace talks to Hanzo of the Salamander, which also marked the complete end of all wars in Land of Rain.
Let's talk about the battlefield between Konohagakure and Iwagakure.
Konoha base camp, Hiruzen Sarutobi's main account.
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the message scroll White Zetsu sent again, and his expression suddenly changed.
"How is it possible that Mingyue Takenaka did not return with Uzushiogakure's people, but instead led them here?" Hiruzen Sarutobi asked in surprise.
"Master Black Zetsu said that girl Mingyue Takenaka is probably here for you. It seems that she is trying to plot against the two boys Takenaka Clan last time." White Zetsu said nonchalantly, with a smile on his face.
Hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned. The last time he calculated Changge Takenaka and Muge Takenaka was out of helplessness. At that time, Konoha could no longer stand up to Iwagakure's attack, in order to reduce battlefield pressure, he had to hand over the task of attracting Iwagakure Ninja elites to Changge Takenaka and Muge Takenaka.
However, he really had no intention of killing the two Muge Takenaka brothers. He just thought that the two brothers were protected by Uzushiogakure's strong men, and that they were strong enough to complete the task.
However, he did not expect that Ōnoki would actually send a large number of Iwagakure Ninja to besiege, so he put the two Muge Takenaka brothers in danger.
Fortunately, Wanghun, who had been secretly protecting these two people, took action and easily rescued the two brothers. Otherwise, he would have been unable to sit still.
Thinking of this, Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned and asked, "Mingyue Takenaka When will that girl arrive?"
"This evening at the latest!" White Zetsu replied.
"Hey, she came so quickly, this girl really means that she came with bad intentions.
However, as long as Takenaka Kaguya doesn't come in person, there is still room for maneuver.
Moreover, if you operate it well, you might be able to use the power of Uzushiogakure to drive away those bastards Iwagakure completely!" Hiruzen Sarutobi took a breath, and then thought quickly in his mind.
For Hiruzen Sarutobi, Uzushiogakure, except Takenaka Kaguya, no one can threaten his safety. For this, he has enough confidence.
After all, his cooperation with Black Zetsu over the years has not been without benefits. As long as he can cope with it, return to Konoha in the future, and then eliminate Tsunade, this Fourth Hokage, he will be able to control the overall situation of Konoha again.
On the opposite side, White Zetsu saw the worried look on his face dissipate, and then without saying anything, he bowed and quickly sank into the earth and disappeared.
Soon, dusk arrived, and after a day of rushing, Mingyue Takenaka and his people finally arrived at the Konoha base camp.
Ninja of Konoha had already received the message, so a group of Konoha Jonin headed by Hiruzen Sarutobi had been waiting at the gate of the camp.
"You all have come a long way, but I hope you won't be surprised if you miss me from afar!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the unkind Uzushiogakure Ninja and immediately stepped forward and said.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Mingyue Takenaka immediately walked over, looked Hiruzen Sarutobi up and down with a smile, and then slowly said, "Hiruzen Sarutobi, you dare to appear in front of me without even covering up, do you think we people can't do anything to you?
Or have you forgotten that two years ago you and Shimura Danzō incited all the hidden villages to join forces to besiege our Uzushiogakure?"
"Mingyue Leader, what happened two years ago was my fault. I have been deeply aware of my mistakes in the past two years.
I originally wanted to go to Uzushiogakure to apologize to Lord Takenaka in person, but we Konoha are surrounded by enemies, so we can only help Konoha fight off the enemies first." Hiruzen Sarutobi had a look of helplessness on his face, as if he would let me do whatever he wanted after I helped Konoha fight off the enemies.
Hearing this, Mingyue Takenaka frowned. She didn't expect that Hiruzen Sarutobi would actually make such a move.
Sure enough, after hearing these words, Konoha Ninja on the side looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi with much softer eyes.
Although Hiruzen Sarutobi did something wrong, his love for Konoha has not diminished.
"Huh, if that's the case, it's easy to handle!"
At this time, Mingyue Takenaka glanced at everyone, then snorted coldly, stared at Hiruzen Sarutobi and continued, "Hiruzen Sarutobi, why don't you commit suicide in front of me now? As for you worrying about Konoha, haha, there is no need for that.
As long as you commit suicide now, I will immediately lead people to help Konoha repel Iwagakure's enemies, how about that?"
Mingyue Takenaka is the general!
Didn't you Hiruzen Sarutobi fight Konoha well, so you didn't go to Uzushiogakure to be punished? Now Iwagakure's enemy, we Uzushiogakure have helped you deal with it, can you die?
"Whoosh!"
In an instant, Hiruzen Sarutobi's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. How could he not know that the flaw in his words had been caught by this little girl Mingyue Takenaka?
He definitely didn't want to die, but after Mingyue Takenaka said these words, many Konoha Ninja turned their attention to him, wondering how he would choose?
If he commits suicide, there will be nothing to say, and he will instantly become the hero of Konohagakure.
However, he couldn't die, and he didn't want to die. But in this case, what he just said was nonsense, and his image of being greedy for life and afraid of death would never be removed.
Just when Hiruzen Sarutobi was in a dilemma, he heard Mingyue Takenaka say after finishing his attack, "What, Hiruzen Sarutobi, are you just saying it nicely? Or do you doubt that the people I brought here can't help Konoha repel Iwagakure's enemies?
Let's do this, let you see the strength of the people I brought, so that you can commit suicide with peace of mind."
After that, as Mingyue Takenaka finished speaking, the Chakras of more than a dozen strong Kage Levels burst out in an instant, leaving the Konohas and Ninjas stunned.
"Damn it, this little girl Mingyue Takenaka is trying to force me to death. No, I can't die here without me watching Konoha. If Konoha takes the wrong path, how will I see Teacher Tobirama after I die?" Hiruzen Sarutobi looked ugly and couldn't help but secretly said in his heart.
After thinking about it, he looked at Mingyue Takenaka anxiously and wisely and said, "Chief Mingyue, I naturally will not doubt your Uzushiogakure's power, but I can't die here yet.
Even if I am going to die, I will have to wait until I go to Uzushiogakure to see Lord Takenaka and confess my crimes to him face to face before I can die in peace."
These words were righteous and awe-inspiring, but the people present were not fools, so they could clearly see clearly that Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't want to die at all, but was just stalling for time.
However, from Konohagakure's point of view, it is indeed a pity that Hiruzen Sarutobi died. After all, he was also a strong Kage Level, and it would be more beneficial for Konoha to have him alive.
Moreover, since the Second Shinobi World War war started, if Hiruzen Sarutobi had not come to take charge, I am afraid that Iwagakure Ninja, led by Ōnoki himself, would not have been a match.
"Sir Mingyue, regarding Hiruzen Sarutobi's issue, can we discuss it after the war is over?
Now we Konoha are facing Iwagakure's attack, which is really difficult. With him in charge, we will not be defeated by Iwagakure.
Moreover, Lord Fourth Hokage is not here, some things must be decided by Lord Fourth Hokage himself!"
I saw Jonin, who was Nara Clan, stood up, bowed respectfully to Mingyue Takenaka and explained.
"Hmph, shame on you!"
Mingyue Takenaka snorted disdainfully at Hiruzen Sarutobi, then looked at the Nara Clan Jonin who just spoke and said, "Okay, Tsunade's face really needs to be given, then wait until you and Iwagakure decide the winner, then I will come and take away Hiruzen Sarutobi's head with my own hands!"
