The moment Anyo finished speaking, he knew he had said the wrong thing. He hurriedly added to Minato, "Didn't I tell you when you and Little Chili Pepper got married? I got married before you did. The whole village attended back then. Have you forgotten?"
Minato rubbed the back of his head and laughed sheepishly. "Ha... ha, so it was true. I thought you were joking."
"How could I joke about marriage? It's a lifelong commitment." Without hesitation, Anyo walked over and took Mei Terumi's hand.
Watching this from nearby, Ōnoki finally understood what was going on. As it turned out, the other four Kage were all on Anyo's side, leaving him alone on the outside. How pathetic.
He couldn't help walking over to Sasori and asking, "He's a Konoha ninja. He must have killed plenty of Sunagakure ninja during the Second and Third Shinobi World Wars. Why would you entrust your entire village's future to him?"
Sasori looked at Ōnoki with a faint, ambiguous smile. "I know what you're thinking. Don't overthink it. Once you see Sunagakure, you'll understand."
Ōnoki asked in surprise, "You have that much confidence in your village?"
Sasori pondered for a moment before saying, "Compared to it, Iwagakure is a place where cavemen live."
Ōnoki practically steamed with anger at that.
Meanwhile, Anyo felt as though Mei Terumi was about to pinch the flesh right off his waist. Fortunately, his soul perception picked up two powerful chakra fluctuations ahead. He was saved.
Anyo hurriedly called out, "Stop the airship! There are people fighting up ahead. Don't go any farther."
Sasori rose to his feet, his face furious. The airship had already entered Sunagakure's territory. Who dared fight here? If they damaged the oasis that had taken so much effort to build, even a hundred deaths
