Everyone was left speechless by Mei Terumi's astonishing argument.
They all looked at Mei Terumi, unsure what to say for the moment.
They knew there was nothing wrong with what she had said.
But hearing those words come from her mouth was more than they could take.
Seriously?!
Just listen to yourself!
Was that something a sane person would say?!
Wasn't she leading the surrender?!
She said they would become people of Konoha once they went there, that they would get to enjoy Konoha's good life afterward.
For all her talk, none of it changed the fact that Mei Terumi was taking them straight into surrender.
As far as this matter went, they genuinely felt she was firmly in the surrender camp.
Yet they couldn't find a single reason to refute her.
No matter which part of her earlier argument they examined, they had no grounds to argue against it.
Because what she said made too much fucking sense!
Setting aside all the questionable reasoning, if they simply merged into Konoha, then Mei Terumi really wasn't wrong.
Once their two villages joined forces, they could throw their weight around throughout the entire shinobi world.
In the past, the Mist Ninja had belonged to one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages.
But now, they were probably sitting at the same table as Sunagakure.
So when they faced someone stronger in the shinobi world, they really could only keep their heads down.
But if they joined Konoha, they would become Konoha ninja.
With the two ninja villages working together, and Konoha already the strongest in the shinobi world, wouldn't they become even stronger?!
Looking at it that way, there really wasn't anything wrong with Mei Terumi's argument.
If they actually chose to join Konoha...
But wasn't that just fucking surrendering outright?!
What
