Burūi's sudden challenge stunned everyone else in the conference room.
Gaara and Kurotsuchi were simply shocked that he had actually dared to question Konoha at the Five Kage Summit.
After all, the Five Kage Summit was being held in Konoha.

Iwagakure had even asked Konoha for aid to speed up its recovery.
And Kumogakure and Kirigakure had still not fully recovered from the effects of the meteor shower incident.
