Chapter 189: The five parties exchanged opinions thoroughly.
"Why did this happen so suddenly?!"
Tsunade stared in astonishment at Samui in front of her.
"Because Akatsuki's attack was so sudden!"
Samui, her delicate yet cold face tense, said, "About three days ago, an Akatsuki member with Sharingan attacked Cloud Thunder Gorge and kidnapped Killer Bee!"
"Killer Bee... oh, I mean Killer Bee." Tsunade subconsciously straightened her back. "So, even the Eight-Tails has been captured by Akatsuki?"
“Yes!” Samui nodded.
With her movements, Samui's pair of snow-white, round breasts, no less impressive than Tsunade's, vibrated, and the cleavage blocked by the fishing net emitted suggestive friction sounds.
Samui continued, "So the Raikage wants to summon the Five Kage to discuss how to deal with Akatsuki!"
"And besides that..."
Samui stopped there.
"What's wrong?" Tsunade asked, looking at her with a puzzled expression.
"I'm sorry, Hokage-sama, these are the Raikage-sama's exact words..." Samui lowered his head humbly, knelt on one knee, and said as if reporting to a superior, "Tsunade, you must give me an explanation!"
"Explain yourself?!" Shizune, standing beside Tsunade, raised her eyebrows and said sharply, "Our Konoha has never owed the Cloud Ninja anything!"
"I'm sorry!" Samui lowered his head even further. "I was just relaying Lord Raikage's words!"
"You!" Seeing Samui's expression, Shizune became even angrier.
Having assisted Tsunade in handling Konoha's political affairs for so long, how could she not understand the principle that sometimes retreat is the best policy, or even a more forceful approach?
Just like Samui right now, the more respectful she is, the more assertive she actually is!
"Alright, mute!" Tsunade said dismissively, "Didn't we meet that old Raikage back then? You know what kind of person he is. He won't just say something to you out of the blue."
Tsunade looked at Samui: "Let me think, Sharingan... Could it be!"
"Yes, Hokage!" Samui, who was kneeling on one knee, looked up and met Tsunade's gaze: "According to the survivors' descriptions, the one who kidnapped Killer Bee was probably Sasuke Uchiha from your Konoha!"
"Sigh!" Tsunade gave a wry smile. "It seems I have no choice but to play along with the Raikage in this charade!"
"Let me see, the meeting point is—hmm? In Konoha?"
Tsunade looked at Samui with confusion: "Why did the Raikage choose to hold the Five Kage Summit in Konoha?"
……
"Is there even a question?"
At the gates of Konoha, the Fourth Raikage glared at Darui: "Because that's Tsunade, the granddaughter of the First Hokage, Tsunade of the Senju clan. The answer is that simple."
"Huh?" Darui scratched the back of his head in confusion. "Sorry, Raikage-sama, I don't understand."
"Fine, then I'll teach you another lesson." The Fourth Raikage shook his head, a glimmer of reason appearing on his seemingly reckless and rude black face:
"In this world, people are different. While a cold-blooded mindset of self-interest is important, we cannot lose our burning sincerity. Therefore, when dealing with a fox, we must talk about interests, but when facing friends, we must talk about sincerity."
"Moreover, some people are inherently more trustworthy than others!"
The Fourth Raikage added.
"Understood!" Darui nodded.
Actually, he didn't understand.
Darui always felt that what the Fourth Raikage said made a lot of sense, but the real point was actually the last sentence.
Of course, Darui dared not say these things, because he was afraid of getting punched by the Raikage.
After the minor incident, the group continued to wait.
Tsunade didn't keep the Fourth Raikage waiting for long.
Soon, the support team led by Kakashi and Might Guy arrived.
"Lord Raikage, please follow me!"
Led by Kakashi, the Fourth Raikage arrived at a newly built building that was clearly visible to the naked eye.
Why am I so certain? Because the entire building is made of wood, and it's a single piece of wood that grew from the same piece.
Such Wood Release relics are quite common in the Land of Lightning.
"Hmph, Wood Release!" After letting out a cold snort that had no clear meaning, the Fourth Raikage entered the small building.
At this moment, in the round conference room, four of the five Kage of the new era were seated, with two Kage guards standing behind them, just like the reenactment of Hashirama Senju sealing the Tailed Beasts in the past.
What's even more surprising is that among the five Kage at this time, there are actually three female Kage!
"With Yin so dominant and Yang so weak, no wonder they were bullied to this extent by a mere Akatsuki!"
No sooner had he sat down than the Fourth Raikage launched a map-wide attack.
"Hey, I can't pretend I didn't hear that!" Tsunade slammed her hand on the table in annoyance. "You want to get punched, don't you?"
"I'd love to experience the Raikage's powerful physique!" Mei Terumi stuck out her delicate little tongue and licked her soft, pale pink lips.
Seeing the other two female Kage attacking the Raikage, Temari was at a loss, completely unprepared for the Five Kage Summit, which was supposed to be an alliance meeting, to start so tensely.
But the formation was already set up, and it would be too embarrassing for her not to follow.
Temari took a deep breath and, amidst a barrage of "cute" comments, stubbornly puffed out her chest, which was noticeably smaller than the other two:
"My fan hasn't been disadvantageous either!"
"Pfft!" Onoki chuckled.
"What are you laughing at?" Temari glared at him angrily.
"It's nothing!" Onoki waved his hand. "I just wanted to say that among the five Kage present, only the Kazekage-sama deserves the Raikage-sama's mockery, right?"
"If you ask me, that guy behind you with no eyebrows is more suitable to be the Kazekage than you, so why not let Chiyo take the position?"
Onoki scoffed, "Isn't Chiyo the one in charge of Sunagakure affairs?"
"Lord Tsuchikage!" Upon hearing such hurtful words, Kankuro behind Temari changed color drastically.
"Kankuro!" Temari stopped Kankuro from having an outburst.
After her initial helplessness, she calmed down.
She stared directly at Onoki with her bright green almond-shaped eyes, showing no fear:
"The information about the Tsuchikage is wrong. Elder Chiyo is a highly respected elder in Sunagakure. She has been teaching, assisting, and nurturing us juniors. Everyone in Sunagakure respects her, unlike some power-hungry old fogies!"
"You sharp-tongued little brat!" Touched on his most sensitive spot, Onoki's old face immediately darkened.
Because he wasn't really greedy for power; he also wanted to retire and enjoy his old age. The problem was that not only was the land of the Land of Earth barren, but its people were also as barren as the land.
I finally got Deidara, and I even prepared my granddaughter for him, but he ran away!
If any ninja from Iwagakure had half the talent and effort of Konoha, why would they need my struggle, my struggle, my struggle, and then more struggle?
Increasingly angry, Onoki glared at Temari: "I hope your skills are half as impressive as your words!"
Now it was Temari's turn to be embarrassed.
Seeing the atmosphere in the meeting room getting more and more tense, Tsunade stood up, grabbed the chair behind her, and slammed it heavily into the center of the round table!
"enough!"
"Boom—"
The poor chair shattered under the monstrous force, along with the shattered table, and countless fragments swept towards the other four figures like machine gun bullets.
