Darui said in a deep voice:
"Probably both."
"Uchiha Ren's current strength is no longer something that any Ninja Village can contend with alone."
"He defeated Six Paths of Pain, took away Nagato's eyes, and awakened Rinnegan. Shinobi World no one dares to despise him anymore."
"Convening Seireitei Conference at this time is itself a deterrent."
Raikage snorted coldly.
"He wants everyone to go to Seireitei and watch him sit on top of the Jonin world?"
"Lord Raikage, Seireitei don't just want people to come over and watch the ceremony."
Darui looked at the invitation.
"Uchiha Family has been expanding its industry over the years and controls a large amount of resources of Land of Fire and Land of Lightning."
"Their railways, Merchant Guilds, buildings, Medicinal Herb Industry, have already penetrated into various countries."
"The meeting held now is probably to formally determine the status of the Uchiha Family in Shinobi World."
Raikage fell silent.
After a moment, he asked:
"Will Daimyo of the Land of Lightning go?"
Darui nodded.
"He dare not not go."
"Uchiha Family has too many industries in Land of Lightning, involving too many merchants, workers, land and resources."
"Daimyo of the Land of Lightning If you refuse the invitation, Uchiha as long as you tighten the industry a little, there may be a lot of turmoil in the country."
"By then, unemployment, interruption of trade routes, and material shortages will all become problems."
"He can't afford the price."
Raikage's face turned even uglier.
Darui continued:
"And Uchiha Family has written it very clearly."
"If you are absent, you are considered an enemy."
"With Uchiha Ren's current power, Daimyo of the Land of Lightning is not qualified to gamble."
Raikage leaned back on the chair and didn't speak for a long time.
Kumogakure has always advocated strength.
But now, they no longer face a powerful enemy.
Rather, it is a force that owns Rinnegan, controls a huge industry, and has Temple Ninja Force under its command.
Force, wealth, resources, status.
Uchiha Family holds almost everything that can affect Shinobi World in his hands.
"What about Daimyo from other countries?"
Raikage asked.
"Will they go?"
Darui shook his head.
"It's hard to say."
"Daimyo in some countries don't know Uchiha Ren's true strength."
"In their eyes, ninjas are still just tools that can be hired, weapons responsible for war and assassination."
"They have not seen Six Paths of Pain with their own eyes, nor have they seen how Ren defeated Nagato."
"They may feel that no matter how strong Uchiha Family is, he is just Ninja Family, and it is not worth letting Daimyo bow down."
Raikage said coldly:
"That's because they haven't seen Uchiha Ren."
"When they truly understand what Rinnegan means, I'm afraid they will flee their palaces overnight."
Darui nodded.
"Land of Fire Daimyo will definitely be there."
"Seireitei Conference is held in Land of Fire, and Uchiha Family is also located in Land of Fire."
"Land of Fire Daimyo's absence is equivalent to drawing a clear line with Uchiha in public."
"As for Konoha Leadership, we are already speculating that Ren will never just hold an ordinary meeting."
Raikage's eyes darkened.
"Konoha What's the judgment over there?"
"They believe that Uchiha Ren may use this conference to reorganize the Shinobi World order."
Darui said:
"Ninja Village, Daimyo, nobles, Merchant Guilds, everyone will be taken to Seireitei."
"When the time comes, if he proposes new rules, who would dare to refuse them face to face?"
Raikage stared at the invitation in his hand.
"New rules..."
"Do you think he will force all countries to sign Unequal Treaty?"
Darui was silent for a moment.
"With Uchiha's current strength, even if he really does this, most Daimyo will have no room to resist."
"The Ninja Village can mobilize ninjas, and Daimyo can control the country."
"But in front of the Uchiha Family, neither of them can pose a real threat."
"Ren If we use Rinnegan to intimidate the Ninja Village, and then use our industry to influence Daimyo of the Countries, many forces will not even have the qualifications to refuse."
Raikage's palm pressed heavily on the table.
"Uchiha Ren."
"Does he want to unify Shinobi World, or does he want to turn everyone into his vassals?"
Darui looked at the invitation and said slowly:
"No matter what his true intention is, this Seireitei Conference cannot refuse."
"From the moment the invitation letters are sent to all countries, this is no longer an ordinary gathering."
"It's a game without smoke."
Konoha, Hokage Office Building.
Third Hokage sat behind the table, holding the invitation letter sent by Seireitei in his hand, his brows never loosened.
The letter contained only a date, a location, and one sentence that no one who received the letter could ignore.
Absence without excuse will be regarded as an enemy of the Uchiha Family.
This is no longer an ordinary invitation.
It's more like an order placed in front of the entire Shinobi World.
"Tsunade."
Third Hokage raised his head and looked at Tsunade standing in front of the table.
"What exactly does Ren want to do?"
Tsunade folded his arms and looked equally unhappy.
"I just received the notification."
"He didn't discuss it with you in advance?"
"No."
Tsunade answered very simply.
"The messenger brings only one sentence."
Third Hokage's eyes moved.
"What words?"
Tsunade was silent for a moment and then slowly spoke.
"Ren said, let Konoha not think too much. He convened Seireitei Conference not to dominate Shinobi World, let alone to make other countries bow to Uchiha."
"If Konoha goes to Seireitei with the idea of dominating the world, then there is no need to go."
The office became quiet.
Third Hokage tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
Ren The more he explained this point in advance, the more doubts he had in his heart.
Today's Uchiha is no longer the Uchiha that was monitored and guarded against by Konoha Leadership.
Ren owns Rinnegan.
He defeated Madara Uchiha, defeated Nagato Uzumaki, and even the weird Space-Time Ninjutsu like Obito couldn't take advantage of him.
Not to mention the industries, trade routes that Uchiha Family now controls, Intelligence Organization, and the Temple team that is enough to intimidate Shinobi World.
As long as Ren is willing, it will be difficult for any ninja village to resist Uchiha alone.
"Not to dominate the world?"
Third Hokage repeated it in a low voice.
"Then why did he call Five Great Shinobi Villages, Daimyo of the Countries, nobles, Merchant Guilds and representatives of small and medium-sized forces all to Seireitei?"
Tsunade shook his head.
"No one knows."
"Ren didn't reveal a word."
Outside the door, several Konoha Ninja who had received the news were standing in the corridor, talking in low voices.
"Uchiha has just finished the battle with Land of Rain, so he invites all Shinobi World over."
"With their current strength, who dares not to go?"
"But Ren already has Rinnegan. If he really wants to unify Shinobi World, he doesn't need to hold any conference at all."
"Does Uchiha really want to reclassify Shinobi World?"
"Don't talk nonsense."
An older ninja lowered his voice.
"Ren is asking people to speak and not to have the idea of dominating the world. Maybe he really has other purposes."
"But apart from domination, what other purpose does Uchiha have?"
