Multi-party talks.
Kumogakure, Kirigakure, Iwagakure, Sunagakure, Amegakure, Kusagakure...
The Land of Fire, the Land of Water, the Land of Earth, the Land of Wind, the Land of Iron...
Akatsuki, Underground Money Exchange...
All sorts of people with names and reputations in the Shinobi World came.
Or they sent a representative.
They're basically all one team, or like a shadow.
The leader was accompanied by several guards.
The highest level of the Sky Arena.
The clouds stretched across the arena, while the troposphere lay overhead.
Like two layers of clouds, they surrounded the top of the arena from above and below.
"Wow, a building over two thousand meters tall, how did they manage to do that!"
Beside Rasa, Chiyo and Ebizo looked out the window at the clouds swirling overhead, their eyes filled with shock.
It takes them half an hour just to take the elevator up.
Rasa frowned. "Indeed impressive, so this is the foundation of Konoha!"
He couldn't understand it either, not to mention the funding issues involved in building this kind of architecture.
Finding manpower alone is difficult.
Moreover, in such a short period of time.
It has already been completed.
However, it must be said that this is a truly extravagant investment.
If it were him, he couldn't possibly do this, and he wouldn't be able to.
A building over two thousand meters tall.
One wrong move and it will collapse.
There is a lot of knowledge involved here.
Even if Sunagakure had the money, they couldn't complete it.
The crucial issue is that we don't have the money.
Ebizo: "It seems this is Konoha's first show of force to all our villages!"
"Old man Hai, you're right. This is Konoha's way of showing us what's what. Goenji... Hmph!"
Ōnoki, accompanied by Akatsuchi and Kitsuchi, walked over to them, looked at Rasa and the two beside him, and snorted coldly.
The view outside.
Although he saw it often, his current perception was different.
This is a building that's over two thousand meters tall.
How did Konoha manage to do it?
He wanted to know too.
The Iwagakure has already Earth Release as its primary method of cultivation.
It's also impossible to build such a large structure in such a short time.
Moreover, the interior is quite spacious.
There was no perfunctory behavior.
Although they had already sent people to gather intelligence.
I was still awestruck by the ever-rising buildings.
Rasa: "It seems things will be difficult if we don't agree to this alliance!"
He sighed.
The Third Kazekage has not yet been found.
Now this has happened again.
After the end of the large-scale war.
Their village hasn't recovered yet.
This is the kind of thing that happened in Konoha.
Being the Kazekage is just too difficult!
Ōnoki: "It seems that's the case. I also hope for peace, but I won't agree if it's not in the interests of Iwagakure."
The threat from Goenji is quite good.
However, he is not a child and will not be misled by such threats.
Chiyo: "There's no other way. Even though my son died at the hands of Konoha's White Fang, if it's for peace, we can still support it. My brother and I are tired and old!"
Da da da--!
Just then, several figures appeared: a short, baby-faced man Karatachi Yagura.
Standing beside her were Qing and a strange man.
Wearing the attire of the Anbu.
Ōnoki, Rasa, and the others frowned.
"Yagura, wasn't Kirigakure locked down? I heard they even implemented some kind of 'Blood Mist Village' policy, how did you manage to escape?"
Ōnoki joked.
They were also aware of what had recently happened in Kirigakure.
Kirigakure has completely sealed off the village.
No one is allowed to enter or exit.
Even their spies made many sacrifices.
We've only managed to get a little bit of information.
They don't quite understand.
In the event of enormous losses in war.
How could they have made such a policy?
He's absolutely insane.
Logically speaking...
Karatachi Yagura is not that kind of person.
Yagura: "We have no choice but to come. If you form Ninja Alliance and Kirigakure isn't here, then we'll become targets. Old man Ōnoki, do you think we're stupid?"
Nobody is stupid.
If it doesn't work out, that's fine; but if it does, I won't be there.
That's why they became a key target for crackdown.
A nearby Anbu Ninja glanced at the person approaching.
Then look at the outside world.
This is a style.
Konoha couldn't do that, could they?
It must have been something Goenji did that enabled Konoha to complete such a magnificent building.
A building over two thousand meters tall.
They've really stirred up a hornet's nest.
No wonder the previous intelligence mentioned something like Sky Arena.
In retrospect, that makes sense.
Can there really be peace?
Obito harbored deep doubts.
While Goenji is indeed powerful, other ninja villages also have their own trump cards.
If they fight with all their might, Goenji will naturally be fine.
But the villagers might not be so sure.
"Who is this? I don't think I've seen him before?" Ōnoki looked at Obito next to Yagura with a puzzled expression.
The cunning man sensed danger.
Could this person be the next Mizukage?
Rasa also looked at Obito.
Yagura glanced at them. "Go gather intelligence yourselves; asking me is rather presumptuous!"
"That's right, be open and aboveboard. If you want to know the information, just go and gather it yourself."
Another figure appeared, the Fourth Raikage A, with two people behind him.
One Killer B, and the other Samui.
Killer B: "Yo yo, it's some Kage! I wonder where the Hokage is? I don't think I've seen him yet!"
Looking around, he couldn't find the Hokage.
This is the top floor of the Sky Arena.
It's also where the top leaders of all the major powers come from.
In a luxurious seat in the distance.
There were also some people sitting there.
They've been sitting there for a while now, playing cards.
These are the names and actual controllers of various countries.
Still so leisurely.
They seem to have no idea about the formation of the Ninja Alliance.
"If the Ninja Alliance is really established, the country's policies may undergo earth-shattering changes. Have you all thought it through?"
The daimyo of the Land of Fire addressed the daimyo of various other countries.
The Ninja Alliance was formed.
It's not just a village matter.
As a military organization, the ninja village is a military force on par with the Hokage and the Daimyo.
Once the Ninja Alliance is formed.
Changes will occur in all aspects.
As far as they are concerned...
I don't want to see those changes.
Because it would bring unpredictable dangers to their country.
Or rather, losses were incurred.
In their eyes, ninjas were merely tools.
"Our Land of Rice Fields has no other way, no ability to resist, and we strongly support the formation of the Ninja Alliance."
Of course, large countries are worried about their interests being harmed, but small countries like the Land of Rice Fields and the Land of Birds are quite optimistic about it.
Because their ninja skills were no match for those of a major power.
Every time they encountered a major enemy, they suffered heavy losses.
If the military forces of the ninjas were unified.
Then they wouldn't need to face the oppression of a powerful force.
Simply maintaining a competitive edge in business is enough to ensure a better survival for the company.
This is a question that many small countries have seriously considered.
[I was originally going to finish this in the last couple of days, but to get the perfect attendance bonus, I'll write another twenty chapters of slice-of-life content before starting the new book. I won't make it a multiverse infinite flow story; it'll just give Naruto Sasuke, and the other Konoha 12 a chance to appear. I'll finish one story at a time, which suits my mindset.]
