During the peace talks between Konoha and Hidden Cloud Village, Second Hokage and Second Raikage, two of Five Kage, were both killed. This news was like a thunder that broke the silence and directly shocked Ninja World countries.
In this Ninja War, the death of Five Kage is not without precedent, but during the peace talks, two Five Kage died in succession. This situation is truly unprecedented.
At the beginning, many countries and ninja villages thought that this was just a rumor spread through false rumors and did not take it seriously.
However, with the joint announcement of Konoha and Hidden Cloud Village, many countries and villages that did not know the details also learned the inside story of the Konoha and Hidden Cloud Village peace talks. Shock, shock, and disbelief were their first reactions, and then they felt uncontrollably crazy and secretly happy.
Hokage is dead.
Raikage is also dead.
Their murderers - Hidden Cloud Village Kinkaku Ginkaku brothers defected, becoming Ninja World's first S-level extremely dangerous defecting ninja.
However, according to the information provided by Konoha, during the attack on Second Hokage by brothers Kinkaku Ginkaku, Ginkaku was definitely dead, but only Kinkaku survived.
In other words, Gold and Silver Brothers, known as the two rays of light Hidden Cloud Village, and their so-called union of Copper Wall and Iron Wall, have lost one of their parts.
Kinkaku, the only one who survived, was missing at this time. Konoha and Hidden Cloud Village were forming a joint force and began to search for the whereabouts of Kinkaku to avenge the dead Second Hokage and Second Raikage.
In this regard, various countries and major ninja villages expressed their deep condolences for this incident and promised to inform them if they discover the whereabouts of Kinkaku.
Then they sent envoys to Konoha and Hidden Cloud Village to attend the funerals of Hokage and Raikage.
However, many people also feel regretful, because after this huge setback, Konoha and Hidden Cloud Village still firmly implemented the peace strategy of their predecessors without any conflict, and signed an armistice agreement as they wished.
In order to show their sincerity, the Hidden Cloud Village side took over Third Raikage's 'Ai' at the critical moment, and personally led the negotiation team to Konoha to immediately sign an armistice agreement with Third Hokage--Hiruzen Sarutobi, who were also appointed at the critical moment.
The scene of their friendly handshake was even photographed, which seemed to symbolize the unbreakable friendship between the two villages.
It's just that this so-called friendly scene, in the eyes of more people, is just two villages that are like brothers in need. After being traumatized, they can't help but rely on each other and lick each other's wounds.
Within General's Residence, Tenshu Tower.
Yayoi received the obituaries from Konoha and Hidden Cloud Village, less than one day apart.
Compared to the various countries and major ninja villages that were kept in the dark at the beginning, Yayoi used Genjutsu to extract a lot of useful information from Kinkaku.
Therefore, he was the person who knew the most about the shocking events that occurred during the meeting between Konoha and Hidden Cloud Village that day, except for the two villages involved, Konoha and Hidden Cloud Village.
Moreover, the whereabouts of Kinkaku are different from those spread by Konoha and Hidden Cloud Village. The other party did not flee into exile with the body of Ginkaku after killing Second Hokage and Second Raikage, as Konoha and Hidden Cloud Village suspected.
The S-class fugitive Kinkaku, whom everyone now considers dangerous, is being held in a dark underground prison, guarded by Raizo and Naraku around the clock.
It's just that this secret is destined to be impossible to share with others.
Otherwise, if it were known to outsiders, Land of Night, who had nothing to do with the murder of Five Kage, would be covered in yellow mud and could not be washed off.
"..."
At this time, Yayoi put Kumogakure's obituary aside and sat silently on his seat, holding the obituary of Konoha in a daze without saying a word.
Yaya and Komurasaki, who were sitting in the arms of Yayoi, were also sensible enough not to disturb them, leaving Yayoi to sit here in silence.
As creatures, they can clearly Sensory understand the joy and uncontrollable sadness in the heart of the Creator.
As General of the Land of Night, Yayoi has not many friends, and Tobirama is one of them.
Therefore, he is mourning the death of his friend.
But similarly, as an opponent, Tobirama makes Yayoi feel troublesome, and many times he hopes that the opponent will die.
Because he had a hunch that Tobirama and Konoha would most likely become the most difficult obstacles on the road to the rise of Land of Night in the near future.
Therefore, he was also feeling happy from the bottom of his heart that this opponent who deserved to be taken seriously died.
The mixture of sadness and joy is exactly the complexity of Yayoi's mood at this time.
Recalling the scenes of dealing with Tobirama over the years, due to the existence of Hashirama, their cooperation was greater than their caution and vigilance.
That period was the honeymoon period of cooperation, with each other exchanging their respective research results, such as the important Wood Release experiment.
The time when we really started to be vigilant was after the death of Hashirama and the moment the war broke out.
Both parties tacitly understand that the era of close cooperation between Land of Night and Konoha has completely passed.
From now on, they will not only be friends, but also opponents worthy of vigilance.
"..."
Yayoi sighed again, not knowing what he was regretting.
"Irori."
"Master Yayoi, what's the matter?"
Irori was not standing by, but was handling work. Hearing Yayoi's summons, he slowly raised his head and looked over.
Unlike Yayoi, she has no special thoughts about Tobirama, and her mood can be said to be extremely stable.
Not just her, but also Yaya and Komurasaki.
For them, who are the creators, Yayoi as the Creator is their everything, soul and life.
When the Creator's friends die, they may be able to hear the Creator's complicated inner feelings, but they cannot empathize.
The same applies to others. Even if the women and children around Yayoi die one by one, they will not shed tears or mourn for it.
They are the continuation of the Creator's will, but apart from the Creator, they cannot empathize with all existences other than this.
Therefore, they will also care about the people and things that Yayoi cares about, but they only care.
"Go to Konoha for me. Tobirama's funeral will be held in a week. You can just leave tomorrow. As for Hidden Cloud Village, I will arrange for Kakuzu to go there."
"Yes, Master Yayoi."
Irori nodded and, as before, followed any instructions from Yayoi.
"That's all for today's work. I'm going out for a walk."
Yayoi put down the obituary letter and rubbed his swollen eyebrows. He was not in the mood to work now, so he got up and left his seat, preparing to go outside for a walk.
His thoughts are very messy now. On the one hand, it is because of the death of his friend that Wu Xin has to work. On the other hand, he needs to calm down and reconsider how Land of Night should move forward next.
Two Five Kages died in a row, whether it was good or bad, the impact was really too great.
The most important thing is that after such an incident, Konoha and Hidden Cloud Village miraculously did not become at war with each other. Instead, they began to huddle together for warmth and work closely together... All kinds of things happened, which directly disrupted all his original plans.
Yaya and Komurasaki looked at each other as they left Yayoi's arms, and followed Yayoi silently to carry out escort work.
