Chapter 997
"As far as I know, these people are only Uchiha Madara, the First Hokage Senju Hashirama, the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, and the Raikage-sama's brother Killer Bee. However..."
Danzo's words made the Raikage feel tense. Mentioning his brother Bee at this time was definitely not just a casual remark, and the "However..." in Danzo's mouth had multiple meanings.
The Raikage's fists clenched. At this moment, the ten Kage guards immediately rushed forward.
"Stop your babbling here."
The Raikage's arm was raised high, and with a bang, he smashed it onto the conference table in front of him. His anger had already accumulated to the full.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Figures darted out from behind the white cloth. Among the ten Kage guards, eight rushed toward the Raikage, and two blocked in front of the Raikage. The two were the Raikage's guards, Shi and Darui.
Just at the moment the Raikage's fist fell, the chakra in Danzo's body fluctuated, so subtle that it could be ignored. And the eyes of the meeting host, Mifune, dimmed, and then returned to normal.
That eye of Danzo's wrapped in bandages was a Sharingan, Uchiha Shisui's Sharingan. The most famous thing about "Shunshin no Shisui" was not his Body Flicker Technique, but a certain pupil technique of his Sharingan, a pupil technique called Kotoamatsukami. This kind of ninjutsu can invade another person's brain without being noticed and modify the other person's will. This is a very terrifying genjutsu. After using it once, it takes more than ten years to use it again.
Before the meeting started, Danzo used this technique on Mifune, and his purpose was temporarily unknown.
The Five Kage meeting, which had originally had a harmonious atmosphere, began to become tense after the Raikage smashed through the wooden table with his fist.
"This is a place for discussion. Please discipline yourself if you have behavior that lacks etiquette."
Mifune spoke very appropriately, and the five Kage signaled their guards to retreat.
"Please continue the discussion."
As soon as Mifune's voice fell, the Raikage, who had been silent all along, stood up.
"Konoha, Iwa, Suna, Kiri, Akatsuki was formed by rogue ninjas from your villages. Not only that, according to my investigation, you or your previous Kage have all used Akatsuki to participate in wars..."
The Raikage began to hold them accountable. This was the main reason he convened the Five Kage Summit. Originally, he wanted to fire at Konoha, but Danzo, this old schemer, was too difficult to deal with, so he settled for the next best thing.
The Raikage began to fire at other ninja villages. The remaining four Kage were naturally not soft persimmons, and their words choked the Raikage quite a bit, but Danzo had not spoken yet.
Just as the four Kage were holding each other accountable, Danzo spoke in a calm tone.
"According to the intelligence I have obtained, the leader of the Akatsuki organization is Uchiha Madara."
As soon as these words were spoken, the conference room fell into a dead silence.
"Really..."
"Didn't that guy die decades ago?"
"If that is the case..."
Just as the four Kage were judging whether this news was true, Danzo spoke again.
"I am also not very clear about the specific situation, but the credibility of this intelligence is extremely high. I guarantee it in the name of the Hokage."
This time, the expressions of the other four Kage changed. Guaranteeing it in the name of the Hokage meant that Danzo had staked Konoha's reputation. In this way, the credibility was not low.
"Could it be that that guy is immortal?"
"Perhaps."
Danzo was still in that unhurried tone, full of the demeanor of an old schemer.
"Cough."
Mifune coughed lightly. He stood up.
"As a neutral country, how about letting me say a few words?"
The five Kage did not speak. Mifune continued: "The current situation is chaotic, and the Akatsuki organization has become a major disaster. We must suppress it. It is rare for the five Kage to be able to gather together. Why don't we form an alliance of the five major ninja villages during the period of dealing with the Akatsuki organization?"
Mifune's proposal had no problems, but Danzo felt relieved in his heart. His plan was going very smoothly.
"Good proposal."
Danzo supported Mifune without changing his expression.
"Hmm, this way we can unify command and act in unison."
Mifune's eyes narrowed.
"Then, who should the leader of the Allied Shinobi Forces be given to?"
The shrewd Tsuchikage spoke. He immediately found the key point of the proposal.
"If you discuss it, you will only argue constantly. Therefore, I hope everyone can respect the proposal of this person as a neutral country. Now only Konoha possesses the Nine-Tails, and the control of the Nine-Tails is extremely critical. Why don't... how about handing over the power of the Allied Shinobi Forces to the Hokage?"
Except for Danzo, the other four Kage looked slightly stunned. They were all wondering if Mifune had reached some kind of deal with Danzo, actually supporting Danzo. But the fact before them was that the neutral country's proposal had a lot of weight. The military power of the Land of Iron could definitely not be underestimated, and the reputation of the Land of Iron was far better than that of major ninja villages.
The conference room was silent. This was Danzo's goal. An alliance was a matter of time. He wanted to fight for the position of alliance leader. If he sat in this position, his position as the Sixth Hokage would be stable.
Danzo used Kotoamatsukami to create the current situation. In the original work, Mizukage Mei Terumi's guard Ao exposed Danzo's conspiracy. However, Ao had already died at Su Xiao's hands, and that Byakugan had also been destroyed.
Just as everyone was silent, a large pitcher plant suddenly grew in the center of the semi-circular conference table.
The green pitcher plant unfolded, revealing Bai Jue inside. This was Bai Jue's clone.
"Everyone, hello."
Bai Jue's clone had a smile on his face. He almost appeared within the encirclement of the five Kage, less than three meters away from each of the five Kage.
The ten Kage guards, in groups of two, stood in front of their respective Kage, standing upright on the conference table, staring tightly at Bai Jue. Cold sweat flowed down their faces. Before Bai Jue took the initiative to appear, they hadn't discovered Bai Jue's existence at all.
"Uchiha Sasuke has invaded, yo. Where exactly is he hiding? Hahaha."
Bai Jue could be described as extremely arrogant.
At this moment, a raven flew over and landed on Bai Jue's head.
"Eh?"
Bai Jue was somewhat confused. The raven on his head looked around at the five Kage, and those eyes filled with alchemy arrays emitted light.
This was Su Xiao's alchemy raven. Because he had manufactured many alchemy ravens in the Void, he became more and more proficient in manufacturing this thing, and the manufacturing cost was also much lower.
To control the alchemy raven, Su Xiao could only temporarily switch out Amu, who enjoyed the summoning slot bonus, and replace it with the alchemy raven. Only then could he control the raven and obtain shared vision. Su Xiao released the control of the alchemy raven, and Amu would automatically switch to Su Xiao's summon, regaining Su Xiao's intelligence attribute bonus.
"Let's go find Sasuke together~"
Bai Jue's clone roared. At the same time, the Raikage had already rushed in front of him, with extreme speed.
Just as the Raikage was about to pinch the neck of Bai Jue's clone, the alchemy raven on the clone's head looked at the Raikage, and the raven's body expanded rapidly.
"Raikage-sama!"
The Raikage's guard Shi rushed forward quickly.
Boom!
The explosion spread inside the conference room. The conference table was the first to be blown to pieces, wood chips flew, and Bai Jue's clone was also blown to pieces, turning into a sky full of white minced meat.
The fire light dissipated quickly. Danzo's expression was as gloomy as water. He had been about to take a very important step, but now, an unknown attacker had interrupted this process.
Inside the first floor of the high tower.
The sharp roar of lightning spread. Sasuke was holding a long sword, slashing at samurai on the first floor. That blue-white electric light made his complexion look slightly pale, and those Sharingan eyes had already begun to look somewhat cold and ruthless.
At the edge of the first floor, Su Xiao, Bubu Wang, Amu, Obito, and others were watching the battle from a high place.
"Zetsu's side is done. Using Sasuke as bait, the Raikage will appear here soon."
Su Xiao opened his eyes. The alchemy raven self-destructed, the shared vision was cut off, and Amu returned to his summoning slot, enjoying the bonus of his 80 points of intelligence.
"It seems very smooth. Is the target tentatively set as the Raikage? That strong man is not easy to deal with. Unless it is a necessary moment, I will not take action."
Obito seemed not to be ready to take action for the time being.
"It depends on the situation. I don't know if that woman Mei Terumi will be left alone. Deidara's side is also almost ready. That guy seems to be very resistant to seeing the Tsuchikage."
Su Xiao's target was Mizukage Mei Terumi, but there was a premise, which was that there were no other Kage near Mei Terumi. He would not have the mysterious confidence like Sasuke. The pressure of facing a Kage head-on was great, but it was no problem to fight a Kage-level battle now even if the distance was opened up.
When Su Xiao entered the Naruto world last time, he could indeed kill a Kage, but that was to ensure that he was close to the Kage when the battle started. If the distance was opened up, he would die in less than a minute.
Now it is different. Even if the distance is opened up, he can fight a Kage-level battle, and even kill a Kage. This is the growth of strength. Do not underestimate this point; this is a qualitative leap.
"Uchiha Sasuke, whether he is worth cultivating depends on whether he can survive this time."
Obito did not avoid Su Xiao; the two are now partners.
"He should have the Mangekyo now, right?"
"Hmm, he opened his eyes not long ago, stimulated by that incident with Itachi. Now he is full of hatred, which is not bad."
