As for the strange cat that was described as somewhat troublesome, it yawned on Bai Yu's shoulder, revealing a hint of human-like disdain.
Everyone present looked at Sakumo Hatake, who picked him up and dragged Shikajin Nara away in one swift motion.
Compared to Shikajin Nara, who's practically missing a screw in his head.
Even a blind person could notice something was wrong in the scene.
Of course, their focus remained on Bai Yu's identity.
He clearly didn't think much of the strange cat perched on his shoulder.
At least, in their eyes, they probably wouldn't believe that the mighty king of the Nine Tailed Beasts would be so tiny.
It could be said that what they cared about most was Bai Yu's identity.
" Sakumo, alright, just teach this guy to be a little smarter in the future."
After a brief conversation with Mito Uzumaki, Tobirama Senju glanced at Shikajin Nara was screaming like a pig being slaughtered, and then spoke.
" Bai Yu, Mito has already told me about what happened just now, and about the transaction."
I cannot reply to you about this at the moment.
"But don't worry, if those guys really have ulterior motives, even if you don't kill those two, I definitely will."
"However, the primary prerequisite is that those guys actually sabotage the peace talks; otherwise, our Konoha Ninja Village will never bear the reputation of being unjust and heartless."
"If they have no intention of rebelling, and you insist on taking action, our Konoha Ninja Village will stop you at all costs."
"I think, Bai Yu, you should know our resolve. My elder brother is still alive!"
The deep voice instantly brought the atmosphere in the room to a fever pitch.
He actually showed such a solemn side when facing the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju.
This undoubtedly makes people's hearts clench.
Mito Uzumaki, who had remained silent, became hesitant and clenched her teeth.
They were clearly worried that Bai Yu might suddenly start a massacre without warning.
After all, she did indeed bear the title of Jinchūriki, which in the Shinobi World meant she possessed strength surpassing that of an ordinary Kage Level.
However, when he thought about it, Bai Yu was more like Jinchūriki than he was.
Besides helplessness, Mito Uzumaki felt a pang of bitterness in her heart.
Sensing the change in the atmosphere around him, Bai Yu smiled and took a swig of his drink.
" Tobirama Senju, this tense, probing attitude is tiring, even for me."
"However, before we discuss business, shouldn't you at least welcome our guests?"
Whoosh whoosh!
A whooshing sound swept in from afar.
The sky was filled with dark shadows, which came crashing down like a torrential rain.
The Second Hokage Tobirama Senju, suddenly changed his expression and clasped his hands together.
" Water Release · Water Shockwave!"
Boom!
Large waves of water surged out from beneath the Second Hokage's feet.
Like a dragon unleashed, it transformed into a vast wave, shooting towards the oncoming Kunai.
Boom!
The Kunai raining down from the sky, entangled with Explosive Tag, exploded with a deafening roar.
The scorching waves of fire were instantly broken through by wave after wave of water.
Amidst the billowing mist and steam, most of the surrounding trees collapsed with a deafening roar.
Within the forest, a clearing several hundred meters wide was carved out.
" Earth Release · Earth Release Wall!"
Bang!
Large waves crashed relentlessly against the thick earthen walls that bulged out of the rock strata.
It eventually collapsed and disintegrated.
However, taking advantage of this opportunity, Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others also came to their senses, gripped their weapons tightly, and went into alert mode.
Looking at the dozens of figures rapidly approaching from afar.
The two leading men were none other than burly men with blond and silver hair, respectively.
One of them was carrying a huge gourd on his back.
A golden rope was slung around his waist.
The other person had a huge Bashōsen on his back and a strange large knife hanging at his waist.
Both men exuded a chilling aura, followed closely by fifty elite Cloud Ninja soldiers, each bearing a gold and silver gourd emblem.
In the Kumogakure, this would be a symbol of status.
Symbolizing the strongest pursuit special forces team in Kumogakure, the Gold and Silver Force.
The two leading figures were none other than Kinkaku and Ginkaku, who possessed Kinkaku Sage Body and had previously devoured Chakra from the Nine-Tails.
He is said to possess Kage Level strength, or even strength surpassing that of ordinary Kage Level.
The sudden appearance of a large force deep within the Land of Fire was undoubtedly beyond their comprehension.
Even Tobirama Senju's expression turned slightly cold, a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes.
If he hadn't heard Bai Yu's words, Tobirama Senju would indeed have been wary of encountering Kinkaku and Ginkaku at this critical juncture.
However, it would never be done with such solemnity.
After all, during their conversation just now, Mito Uzumaki had mentioned that he would die.
At the same time, during the Sengoku period and the First Shinobi World War, Tobirama Senju had also heard of the fearsome reputations of Kinkaku and Ginkaku.
They have also faced off many times.
Not only are Kinkaku and Ginkaku personally involved, but their elite Kinkaku and Gold and Silver Force from the Kumogakure have also been brought along.
For Tobirama Senju, it was also a stalemate.
If one is not careful, the people here might be swallowed up.
At the same time, the faces of the Kinkaku Ginkaku, who had suddenly appeared, also looked rather grim.
Not long ago, the intelligence they received came from Toroi, bringing them good news.
According to Toroi, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Mito Uzumaki, was severely injured by them, and all the elite Anbu sent by Konoha to seal the Nine-Tails were killed.
It is precisely for this reason that they traveled thousands of miles to this rendezvous point on the border to finish the operation.
However, to their utter surprise, Toroi and a group of Anbu Ninja appeared.
Instead, they saw the living Mito Uzumaki, and Tobirama Senju Second Hokage.
This undoubtedly disrupted their entire plan.
For a moment, both sides were caught off guard and could only stare at each other blankly.
For a short while, there was absolutely no movement or opportunity to break the deadlock.
"Are these the Kinkaku and Ginkaku from the Kumogakure?"
Bai Yu took a sip of his drink and said with a smile.
"We just encountered Toroi, an elite Jonin the Kumogakure," who led his men in an attack against us.
"But, I don't know if they were too weak or we were too strong, those guys chipped their teeth."
"You've suddenly appeared now, are you planning to take advantage of the chaos and continue to plunder the Tailed Beast?"
"However, I forgot to tell you, this fire is burning a bit too brightly, and I'm worried you might get burned."
"You'd better think twice before facing the Second Hokage, lest you capsize unexpectedly."
The soft sound, at this moment, seemed like a demonic chant, echoing between heaven and earth for a long time.
Seeing that he suddenly spoke, he directly pierced through the thin veil separating the two of them.
It was clearly caught off guard.
