The Second Raikage's expression changed. He turned to look at the eager Kinkaku Ginkaku, and finally said in a deep voice.

" Kinkaku and Ginkaku, I know what you're thinking, but this matter must not be mentioned again."

"However, in order to find out whether the rumors are true, and to ascertain the truth about Hashirama Senju's abilities in the recent battle, we can use the pretext of a meeting to go back and investigate."

"If Hashirama Senju truly passes away, we can still strive to gain more leverage in the negotiations."

" The Land of Fire was able to occupy such fertile land entirely because of Hashirama Senju. Now that Hashirama Senju is no longer capable, it's time for the Land of Lightning to give some of it back."

After saying this, the Second Raikage suddenly turned around, his body crackling with lightning, and rushed back towards Bai Yu and the others.

The remaining elite troops of the Gold and Silver Force exchanged glances before looking at Kinkaku and Ginkaku.

Sensing the changes in the expressions of his subordinates, Kinkaku Ginkaku's faces darkened slightly, finally revealing a ferocious smile.

"Heh, I originally thought Lord Raikage would be different from those old guys in the village, but it seems I overestimated him."

"However, since he has chosen to return, it's a good opportunity to wipe them all out."

"At worst, we can kill them all and pin the blame on that brat of unknown origin."

"Let's go, this is a long-awaited battle!"

Kinkaku Ginkaku were the first to rush out.

The fifty men behind him, his trusted elite subordinates, also wore sinister smiles.

The kind of people who were able to gather under the command of the two villains Kinkaku Ginkaku.

Of course, they're people from the same avenue.

Meanwhile, Bai Yu was returning to Konoha Ninja Village with Hashirama Senju and the others.

Watching Hashirama Senju Mito Uzumaki like a goofball, Bai Yu rolled his Byakugan helplessly.

The thought that the peace talks would have to wait another three days was unbearable.

Bai Yu then felt a bit of a headache.

Leaving aside the question of whether the duration of the dungeon in the Sea King World will cause changes.

Just watching this sickeningly sweet romance for three days was already a bit too much for Bai Yu to bear.

Bai Yu now only hopes that the peace talks will end as soon as possible so that he can leave this awful place.

"Someone's here?"

Bai Yu raised an eyebrow and quickly looked into the distance.

Boom!

A figure wreathed in lightning crashed heavily to the ground.

The immense force unleashed caused the rock beneath their feet to shatter and break apart.

As the dust settled, the first thing that caught the eye was the Second Raikage, his entire body crackling with lightning.

At the same time, dozens of figures were rapidly approaching from a distance.

The two leading figures were still two familiar faces.

Seeing the group return, Bai Yu was clearly caught off guard.

" Second Raikage, what do you mean by this?"

Tobirama Senju was taken aback at first, and was the first to lose his composure.

However, the thought that Hashirama Senju of death, had now fully recovered gave him a lot more confidence, and he spoke again.

"The peace talks between Konoha Ninja Village and Kumogakure should be in three days, right?"

"Heh, Tobirama, you're as cautious as ever." The Second Raikage chuckled dryly, dissipating the lightning around him.

"I returned this time only to take advantage of Hashirama Senju's presence to hold a brief peace talk. If we can reach a general agreement now, wouldn't it be easier at the peace conference three days later?"

As he spoke, the Second Raikage's gaze swept quickly across the scene, originally intending to linger a little longer on Hashirama Senju.

Unfortunately, as my gaze swept across the field, it was drawn to an unexpected figure behind me.

At this moment, Bai Yu felt nothing but excitement.

However, the Second Raikage couldn't figure it out at all, so why was Bai Yu so excited?

Bang!

A piercing pain suddenly swept over the Second Raikage's body.

Under the subconscious surge of lightning, he managed to turn his body and dodge the blow to his heart.

However, the Second Raikage's abdomen was also pierced by a single punch.

He flew straight out like a cannonball, crashing headfirst into a tree trunk not far away.

The immense force snapped a tree, large enough for an adult to encircle, in half.

Using the rebound force, the Second Raikage rolled several times on the ground before barely managing to stop himself, looking at the person who had attacked him with disbelief.

At that moment, the Second Raikage seemed to finally understand why Bai Yu had been so excited.

His curse of bloodshed had indeed come true.

" Kinkaku, how dare you ambush me? Were you bribed by that brat from Konoha Ninja Village?"

Faced with Bai Yu's prophetic words and Kinkaku's sneak attack, the Second Raikage clearly could only come up with this explanation.

Even Hashirama Senju and the others were stunned and subconsciously looked at Bai Yu.

Bai Yu touched the tip of his nose helplessly, took a sip of wine, and said.

Can I say this is a case of being caught in the crossfire?

"Their intervention wasn't ordered by me."

"Heh, Lord Raikage, this arrogant brat is right. How could we brothers let a paper tiger brat tell us what to do?" Kinkaku grinned menacingly, licking the blood off his hand.

"No, it should be said that the people of Konoha Ninja Village are all paper tigers now."

"If you had followed our advice from the beginning and wiped them out in one fell swoop, we could still coexist peacefully."

"But you, as the dignified Raikage, have chosen to negotiate with these fools. We brothers cannot afford to lose face like that."

"Since you're unwilling to do it, then we'll kill you, and then wipe them all out."

"However, before killing them, I'd like to know what else that self-proclaimed prophetic brat has to say."

"Can he still spout such arrogant prophetic pronouncements now?"

As he spoke, the ferocious smile on Kinkaku's face grew even more pronounced.

However, when his gaze fell on the faces of Hashirama Senju and the others again, he froze on the spot.

At this moment, facing their overwhelming force, he dealt a heavy blow to the Second Raikage.

They were actually laughing!

Moreover, it was a genuine smile from the heart.

This eerie feeling sent a chill down Kinkaku's spine.

Without thinking, he instinctively looked behind him at Ginkaku.

Ginkaku's expression was equally unpleasant.

However, now that the die is cast, there's no choice but to grit our teeth and do it.

"Kids, are you still trying to play dumb? If you have no last words, don't blame us for being ruthless."

Ruthless?

Bai Yu's smile deepened. Hearing the ethereal system notification fading from his mind, he slowly walked out of the crowd.

"I'm sorry, but actually I should thank you all. However, what you asked about last words and language was actually just one sentence."

Congratulations on narrowing your path!

The soft sound echoed between heaven and earth.

The Kinkaku and Ginkaku were clearly unfathomable, especially to those like Hashirama Senju, whose understanding of them was as radiant as chrysanthemums.

This is completely different from the script they envisioned!
