Chapter 993

Mabui, the Raikage's secretary, did not go out. As the Raikage's secretary, she naturally had to be present.

"It is like this, Lord Raikage. Now, except for Konoha, the Tailed Beasts of other ninja villages have been taken away by the Akatsuki organization. Back then, Senju Hashirama distributed the nine Tailed Beasts to major ninja villages, allowing the ninja villages to possess weapons to intimidate each other. Now, these weapons are under threat. Can we unite to deal with Akatsuki?"

"That makes sense."

The Fourth Raikage nodded, agreeing with Darui's point of view, and he also had other thoughts.

"Darui, unity is certainly important, but before that, we must clarify what is going on with Konoha. Now only Konoha possesses a Tailed Beast, and the relationship between the Uchiha clan and Konoha is too deep."

The Fourth Raikage suddenly thought of something and looked at Mabui.

"Contact the other four major ninja villages and say that Kumogakure demands the convening of a Five Kage Summit. Under these circumstances, they will not refuse."

The Fourth Raikage was preparing to convene a Five Kage Summit. He had three goals: first, to seek an alliance of ninja villages; second, to hold them accountable; and third, to smear them, to smear Konoha.

The Tailed Beasts of other ninja villages have all had accidents, so why is your Konoha's Tailed Beast safe and sound?

This reason seemed somewhat unreasonable, but this was Kumogakure's style. Kumogakure had once used a similar method to extort the Byakugan from Konoha, and they had nearly succeeded.

The Fourth Raikage did not yet know that the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, could no longer continue to serve as Hokage. Therefore, Konoha had selected a Hokage proxy, which was Danzo.

An old schemer like Danzo could naturally handle the Fourth Raikage's extortion, and Danzo was more than happy for the Raikage to convene a Five Kage Summit. If he represented Konoha at the Five Kage Summit, it would allow him to be confirmed in his position faster.

Under these circumstances where the Raikage was preparing to hold Konoha accountable, the Five Kage Summit was about to be convened.

Outside the window of the Raikage's office, several spore balls were attached to the crevices of the window sill. The spore balls were only the size of a grain of rice, and there was no chakra fluctuation inside.

Akatsuki organization base.

Su Xiao and the others had already agreed on the subsequent plan. Just as everyone was about to set off, Zetsu's footsteps suddenly paused.

"My clone obtained an important piece of intelligence through the Spore Technique."

Bai Jue spoke.

"What intelligence? Where is it from?"

"Kumogakure. Just a few minutes ago. That was a spore I sent to Kumogakure two months ago. It was very close to the Raikage's office, so I let the clone keep sensing those spore balls..."

Bai Jue explained the importance of those spore balls as if claiming credit.

"Just tell me what the intelligence is."

Obito was impatient with Bai Jue's chatter.

"The Fourth Raikage seems to be convening a Five Kage Summit. It will be held in three days in the neutral Land of Iron. Listening to the Raikage's meaning, it is mainly to hold Konoha accountable..."

Bai Jue gave detailed intelligence. The Kage of five ninja villages gathering; three days seemed inevitably rushed, but ninjas are different from politicians; they have strong mobility. Moreover, since they are the Kage, three days is enough, and there is even time to spare.

The shorter the time, the lower the risk of the Five Kage Summit. With only three days, perhaps by the time the enemy reacts, the Five Kage Summit will already be over.

"Holding Konoha accountable..."

Obito became interested. If the Raikage wanted to assemble the other four major ninja villages, he would definitely sabotage it from within. Although his plan included assembling the five major ninja villages, it was still too early, and his strength was not enough to confront the five major ninja villages.

If it were the Raikage's unilateral accountability, it would be different. Because a large number of Tailed Beasts had been captured, the five major ninja villages were all holding back a fire in their hearts. If they could successfully sow discord and make them kill each other, thereby triggering a war, then capturing the remaining two Tailed Beasts would be simple.

The more Obito thought about it, the more tempted he became. Moreover, he did not want the five major ninja villages to unite for the time being.

"Five Kage Summit."

After hearing this keyword, Su Xiao immediately understood to what extent the situation had progressed.

"Are you interested?"

Obito looked at Su Xiao with burning eyes.

"Of course... interested. There are some personal grudges that need to be dealt with."

"But the Nine-Tails side..."

"Don't worry, the Nine-Tails will chase after us on its own."

Su Xiao looked at Sasuke unintentionally. As long as Sasuke is there, Uzumaki Naruto will definitely chase after him; this is an indisputable fact.

Su Xiao was very curious about one thing: if the protagonist Uzumaki Naruto did not participate in the Ninja World War, what would the result of the Ninja World War be? Or rather, if the result of the Ninja World War were indirectly changed, how much World Source would be obtained? Or other rewards?

The more Su Xiao thought about it, the more interested he became. Undoubtedly, the Five Kage Summit is a very important turning point. Participating in this event as a member of the Akatsuki organization would definitely yield astonishing gains.

"Are you sure?"

Obito seemed to see that Su Xiao wanted to participate in the Five Kage Summit, but he would not stop him.

Obito would certainly not stop something where both sides had gains.

"Deidara, let Zetsu's clone handle Konan. The Five Kage Summit might be more important."

"This decision seems unwise."

A low and hoarse voice came; it was Black Zetsu. When he discovered that Obito was concentrating his main combat power on the Five Kage Summit, he immediately intervened.

"We'll talk later."

Obito's expression remained unchanged. Although Black Zetsu was dissatisfied, there were others present, so he couldn't say anything.

"Let's decide it this way. Except for Kisame who has already gone to find the Eight-Tails, everyone else will head to the Land of Iron, where the Five Kage Summit will be convened."

Obito had already sensed that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"Are we going to make a big scene? Hmm."

The mouth on Deidara's palm opened, and a bright red tongue stuck out.

"It depends on the situation, but when the Five Kage Summit is convened, what will happen if one or two Kage die?"

Obito's meaning was very simple: find an opportunity to kill one or two Kage. Only when things get chaotic can they take action.

"Set off in half an hour, head to the Land of Iron."

The final plan was determined: head to the Land of Iron, and during the Five Kage Summit, find an opportunity to assassinate the Kage of major ninja villages, with the Hokage, Raikage, and Mizukage as the main targets. If any one of these three Kage were to die, the situation would very likely become chaotic.

Especially the Mizukage. Now that Kirigakure had just stabilized a bit, if the Mizukage were to suddenly die in battle, the situation in Kirigakure would immediately become chaotic, and the hatred that had accumulated before would instantly erupt.

The meeting ended. Just as everyone was preparing to set off, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang did not move. It looked up at Su Xiao, and that gaze seemed to be asking: "Master, where is my happy little partner Hidan?"

Regarding Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's question, Su Xiao did not know the exact answer either. If he guessed correctly, Hidan was being buried somewhere underground, and the specific address was unknown.

Obito and Black and Bai Jue walked toward the depths of the base. It should be that Black Zetsu wanted to discuss something with Obito. Nine times out of ten, it was that Obito's concentration of energy on the Five Kage Summit had caused Black Zetsu's dissatisfaction. In Black Zetsu's view, the Rinnegan was more important.

Obito had his own thoughts. Nagato's pair of Rinnegan would not have any problems within half a year, but the Five Kage Summit was imminent. Obito could certainly distinguish the urgency of the two.
