The next day is also the third day since Cloud Village Delegation came to Konoha.
It's approaching noon.
After finishing his meal, Yan came to the conference hall on the second floor of Hokage Building.
At this time, the place was already full of people.
In addition to Sarutobi Hiruzen, Senju Tobirama and Tsunade who just took over as consultant, even Mitokado Homura, whom I haven't seen for a long time, is also there.
"Yan, you're here!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting in the first place, was very enthusiastic after seeing Yan. He got up and pulled Yan to the seat on his right and sat down.
In response, Mitokado Homura looked at their mouths and noses, and their noses at their hearts, not daring to speak.
And Tsunade just said hello casually after seeing Yan without saying much.
It was obvious that he was still looking for her to succeed her as a consultant and was giving her a lot of things to be angry about.
After Yan sat down and looked around, he asked.
"Aren't those barbarians here yet?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen replied, "I'll be there soon, but I'm going to discuss the peace talks with you first."
Yan frowned, "What else is there to discuss? Manzi came to see me yesterday."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was shocked and asked again and again, "Isn't it because I'm looking for you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yan nodded.
Sarutobi Hiruzen saw this and stopped talking.
Because he knows that what Cloud Village wants is impossible to achieve.
It is already certain that Yan will become Fifth Hokage, how could he abandon the alliance between Konoha and Cloud Village when he has nothing to do?
Moreover, Kumogakure's reputation among Ninja World is not very good, it can even be said to be a mess.
No one with any brain would choose Cloud Village.
Senju Tobirama After pondering for a moment, he said, "Those barbarians came to Konoha and they are really uneasy and have good intentions."
"Normal!" Tsunade was not surprised by this. "Those people at Kumogakure have their brains muddled by their muscles. In addition, Konoha's previous attitude towards the outside world was indeed a bit weak."
Adding Tsunade seemed to mean something, and Sarutobi Hiruzen touched his nose awkwardly.
But Mitokado Homura didn't say a word.
He has seen since Utatane Koharu stepped down that his position as consultant will not last long.
It's better to say less to avoid being caught and end up like Danzo.
"But this is fine!" Senju Tobirama raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth, "Times will change, Cloud Village, since they want to be the leader, then we will help them."
Yan nodded and agreed, "Indeed, but the pressure will be great in the future."
"Both internally and externally!"
Hearing this, Tsunade couldn't help but frown, and said hesitantly, "Is there really no compromise?"
"A lot of people will die this way."
Yan and Senju Tobirama shook their heads at the same time.
"You have seen the final consequences of being weak to the outside world even though the wind is still blowing when the tree wants to be still. All cats and dogs can step on it."
"And Konoha must also be freed from financial shackles."
"..."
The tone has been set, and the plan has been slowly unfolding. Just like the wheels of time, it can only move forward, crushing everyone and everything that tries to stand in its way.
Seeing that Yan and Second Hokage were so determined, Tsunade sighed helplessly and stopped talking.
"Then please invite Cloud Village Delegation and the others to come in!"
About ten minutes later, the door to the conference room opened, and Darui walked in.
After scanning around the venue, Jian Yan and Tsunade were also sitting, and he also saw the person who had clearly passed away. He couldn't help but feel an ominous premonition in his heart.
But we can't let Kumogakure and Raikage lose face outside.
Darui calmed down his complicated emotions and chose the last seat with an expressionless face, vaguely opposed to all the senior officials of Konoha.
After the two parties silently confronted each other for a long time.
Darui was the first to break the awkward atmosphere and spoke.
"As we all know, the Ninja World war has ended long ago, but Land of Lightning and Land of Fire are always in conflict for some reason."
"And we came here this time with Lord Raikage's order to bring real peace to Ninja World."
"..."
When Darui said these high-sounding words, his face did not turn red, as if that was what he was thinking in his heart.
In response, Senju Tobirama and Yan sat on both sides with lazy faces and no intention of speaking.
And Tsunade ignored Darui from the moment he came in, completely pretending that he didn't exist.
Mitokado Homura, who was in charge of diplomacy, did not say a word at this time and tried to keep his presence to a minimum.
Seeing that no one spoke for a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed twice, then bravely answered Darui's words and said.
"Raikage is interested. If this is the case, let the peace talks begin."
Everyone nodded and looked at Darui.
Darui was not afraid at all and spoke straightforwardly.
"For the sake of Ninja World's peace, and for the two countries of Thunder and Fire to get back together, Lord Raikage still has a few requirements."
"Please tell me!"
"First, Konoha needs to entrust 20% of the tasks to Kumogakure."
After saying that, Darui took a look at the venue.
Seeing everyone reacting to this condition, there was an inexplicable smile on their faces, but no one had any intention of interrupting or refuting.
Darui, who was a little confused, continued.
"Second, Konoha needs to take out Scroll of Sealing, and Cloud Village can choose two forbidden techniques at will."
There was silence in the venue, no one interrupted, no one refuted, it was as if Darui was performing a one-man show by himself.
"Third, Konoha needs to hand over a pair of Byakugan to Kumogakure."
"Fourth, Cloud Village will establish cooperation with Uchiha Special Zone, and Konoha shall not obstruct it."
"..."
Once a few conditions are met, it's over.
Darui saw that Konoha High Command's attitude was the same as before, with a strange expression on his face, and his heart was even more uneasy, so he continued.
"As long as you Konoha agree to these conditions, Land of Lightning will sign an armistice agreement with Land of Fire and let Ninja World return to peace."
"..."
After saying that, Darui sat down calmly, waiting for Konoha High Command's answer.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also looked a little angry at this time.
These conditions can be said to be more extreme than the last, and more outrageous than the last.
If you really agree, you will be nailed to the pillar of shame.
'Ahem!'
At this time, Senju Tobirama coughed twice.
After attracting everyone's attention, she finally spoke.
"Do you know what you just said?"
"In this case, I, Konoha, want to agree to such an exorbitant condition, what about you, Kumogakure, you can't just give nothing, right?"
"..."
Darui sat on the chair and replied, "You can't say that. Several Ninja World wars started because of you Konoha. Since you want peace, you Konoha will naturally bear most of the responsibility."
"Third Shinobi World War only ended in less than four years, you don't want Fourth Shinobi World War to start so soon!"
"And these conditions are the basis for peace talks, otherwise I, Kumogakure, will never cease the war."
