Chapter 122

Thinking of this guess, stars suddenly sparkled in Mei Terumi’s eyes.

She hurriedly looked up, wanting to see that figure she had seen countless times in photos at the spot where the hole had been made.

But by this time, Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye had already sprinted toward the Senju compound.

"What are Itachi doing?"

Yagura Karatachi’s dissatisfied voice startled Mei Terumi.

Looking up, she saw Yagura Karatachi standing in the distance with a look of dissatisfaction.

Her face flushed red, and she finally remembered her responsibility was to protect Yagura Karatachi, who was the Mizukage.

Yet she had stood here in a daze for quite a while.

"Coming, coming!"

I really want to meet Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye!

Mei Terumi thought with a heart full of regret.

…………

"Lord Pakura, could this be a conspiracy by Konoha?"

A Hidden Sand ninja leaned into Pakura’s ear and whispered.

Pakura merely furrowed her brows, then said.

"Increase vigilance, but don't be overly nervous."

"Even if Konoha truly has ill intentions, it’s impossible for them to make a move here."

The streets are full of pedestrians everywhere.

If Konoha dared to make a move here, unless they had gone insane, it would be impossible.

"Yes."

The Hidden Sand ninja whispered and stepped back two paces.

Pakura furrowed her brows slightly and headed toward the Hokage Building.

She had just arrived in Konoha with her people; according to protocol, she naturally had to meet the Hokage.

However, when she reached the Hokage Building, she was told the Hokage had gone home and it was unknown when he would return.

This is simply absurd!

Does your Hokage not work?

Staying home in the middle of the day?

Who is responsible for the big and small affairs of the village?

Pakura found it hard to believe that Konoha’s new Hokage was so irresponsible.

"Then how should I make arrangements?"

"Should I find a place to stay myself, or..."

Pakura furrowed her brows.

The receptionist, Shikaku Nara, said with a smile.

"That’s easy to handle. I can take charge and arrange for Itachi to stay at the Senju Luxury Hotel, and book the highest-grade room for Itachi."

"As for the Hokage, please wait for news for the time being. The Hokage will arrange a unified time to meet with Itachi and the representatives of the other ninja villages."

Pakura nodded.

Afterward, she led her people and followed Shikaku Nara back to the hotel where the farce had just occurred.

Shikaku Nara brought them to the location, and being in a hurry to return and handle the official business Tsunade Senju had given him, he led Pakura and the others directly to the front desk.

"This is an honored guest representing the Kazekage from the Hidden Sand Village. Arrange a room of the highest grade immediately."

"Don't forget these people as well."

The young lady at the front desk had a professional, gentle smile on her face.

"Please leave it to us."

Afterward, she looked at Pakura and gestured with her hand.

"Please follow me, honored guest; I will take Itachi to your room."

Including Pakura, the others who had been invited were all properly settled at the Senju Luxury Hotel.

However, no matter how they pleaded, Tsunade Senju did not agree to their requests for a meeting.

Regarding this, everyone felt deeply puzzled.

Except for the Third Raikage.

My own brother certainly wouldn't cheat me.

So, the Third Raikage spent these few days eating and drinking to his heart's content.

He completely treated Konoha as his own home.

It was incredibly comfortable.

Then, amidst everyone’s anxious waiting, three days flashed by.

Today is the New Year of the 50th year of Konoha.

It was also on this day that Tsunade Senju finally agreed to the meeting requests of the other representatives.

Outside, lanterns and decorations were hung in celebration.

In the conference room of the Hokage Building, Tsunade Senju sat in the main seat, maintaining the classic pose of Commander Gendo.

On both sides were the guests invited by Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye this time.

The Third Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village, the Fourth Mizukage Yagura Karatachi of the Hidden Mist Village and his guard Mei Terumi, Huangtu of the Hidden Mist Village, and Pakura of the Hidden Sand Village.

"Thank Itachi very much to everyone for taking time out of your busy schedules to come to Konoha."

"We feel deeply sorry that Itachi are unable to spend this annual festival in your own homes, so I have taken the liberty of compensating each of Itachi with a house from Senju Real Estate."

Tsunade Senju started by showing plenty of sincerity.

From her attitude, the others could also see that calling them here this time was not because of some major upheaval.

This put Huangtu, who had been vigilant in his heart, at ease.

But while his vigilance was lowered, his curiosity was raised.

"Lord Hokage, I wonder what the reason is for specifically calling us here at this time?"

"It must be a very important matter, right?"

Huangtu was the first to speak and ask.

It wasn't me who called Itachi here!

Tsunade Senju complained in her heart, but her face remained expressionless.

She only said faintly.

"Regarding this matter, please be patient, everyone; someone else will explain the reason for this later."

Someone else? Could it be that the person who sought them out wasn't Tsunade Senju?

Pakura furrowed her brows slightly.

The others had no changes in their expressions.

Everyone present knew that the invitation had been sent out in the name of Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye.

So they naturally guessed that Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye must be planning something.

Only Pakura, who had been ordered to come by Rasa, knew nothing of the inside story and had not seen that invitation.

Just as Pakura was feeling puzzled, the door to the conference room was pushed open directly.

"So everyone has arrived? Then I have truly been discourteous."

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye walked into the conference room.

The Third Raikage immediately stood up and opened his arms to welcome his good brother.

"Haha, I've been waiting for Itachi for ages!"

"Hurry up, stop playing coy; what exactly is the matter for which Itachi called us here?"

As soon as the words fell, the attention of the others was immediately focused on Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye.

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye! The grudge of severing my father’s leg, if I have the chance, I will definitely avenge it!

Huangtu gritted his teeth, a trace of hatred flashing in his eyes.
