Chapter 9: The Three Kage Summit

To be honest, if possible, Ai didn't want to fight this war either. But now, if he retreated, he would be letting down his father who had handed the army to him, and even more so, he would be letting down those ninjas who had lost their lives because of this battle and their families.

But if they fought, Ai felt that he would be letting down those reborn ninjas and the comrades from various nations who had sacrificed their lives for the Fourth Shinobi World War. In their memories, the ninjas of various nations had lived and died together, not only facing the Ten-Tails, but also enemies like Uchiha Obito and Uchiha Madara. Everyone was a close comrade.

Now he had to force these former comrades to kill each other! He couldn't do such a thing.

Now he couldn't retreat, and he couldn't fight. For a time, even the usually decisive Fourth Raikage was a bit at a loss!

In a fit of rage, Ai slammed his right fist onto the table, and the table was instantly punched through!

Tutai opened his mouth to the side, just about to say something, but after thinking about it, he remained silent. Even Bee rarely didn't rap, standing quietly to the side.

The space in the quiet tent suddenly distorted! A spiral ripple appeared, and a moment later, three people appeared in the tent: Minato, Obito, and Onoki!

As soon as Obito appeared, he sat down on the ground, his face pale, gasping for air! Namikaze Minato saw this and hurriedly went over to check Obito's condition, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw he was just exhausted!

"Your ninjutsu is really convenient! Obito," after finishing, Onoki turned his head to look at the broken table and said to Ai:

"You are still as irritable as ever! Even after being reborn, you still like to smash walls at every turn!"

"Onoki, Namikaze Minato, and Uchiha Obito?" As soon as they saw Uchiha Obito, Ai and Tutai wanted to take action to capture him! Bee beside him pulled Tutai and shook his head! And Onoki blocked in front of Ai!

"Move aside, Onoki," Ai said loudly to the Third Tsuchikage.

"Calm down first," the Third Tsuchikage said helplessly to Ai!

The Anbu outside the tent heard the sound inside and hurriedly rushed in. They were clearly stunned to see the Third Tsuchikage and Namikaze Minato, but the professional quality of the Anbu instantly made them react, surrounding Minato's trio tightly!

Onoki, Minato, and the others didn't pay attention to these Anbu. The Third Tsuchikage looked at Ai and said: "Is this the way you treat comrades?"

Ai glanced at Onoki and turned to the Anbu captain and said: "Get out, this is none of your business."

The captain clearly didn't trust the Tsuchikage and the others. For Ai's safety, just as he was about to say something, he saw Ai slam his hand onto the table. The table could no longer support it and collapsed. Ai didn't pay attention to the table but roared at the Anbu captain: "All get out!"

The Anbu captain looked at Ai fearfully, made a retreat gesture, and had all the Anbu retreat!

After the Anbu retreated, the atmosphere wasn't so tense anymore! Onoki then looked around and found that there was only a table broken by Ai and some documents! He said: "Your place is really simple! There isn't even a chair."

Seeing the Tsuchikage blocking in front of him, Ai didn't continue to take action. The Five Kage had cooperated for many years and were comrades who had experienced life and death together, so there was basic trust. Although he didn't know why the Tsuchikage wanted to help Obito, he still trusted him, so he said:

"It's already good that I didn't capture you! You're still being picky. Tell me, what's going on with Uchiha Obito and the Fourth Hokage? What about Kakashi or Tsunade? As Reborn, shouldn't you have called them to come for the talks?"

Seeing that Ai had already calmed down! Onoki, Minato, and the others breathed a sigh of relief! Obito also looked at Onoki gratefully.

Regarding Ai also guessing the conditions for the Reborn, Onoki didn't feel strange at all. Every village had clever people. For example, Tutai beside Ai now, but he clearly didn't belong to the top class, otherwise he should have been able to guess more when Minato appeared!

"You all step back a bit first, I'll make some space, let's sit down and talk slowly!" Onoki said! Hearing this, Ai and the others moved back a few steps.

Seeing that they had retreated enough, Onoki used a Dust Release: Atomic Dismantling Jutsu to instantly separate the table into atomic states. As the ninjutsu dissipated, the remains of the table also vanished into thin air. For Onoki, who could create stone men in the battle against Madara, creating a table and a few chairs was even simpler! An Earth Style earth-made original table and a few stools were completed!

Onoki took the lead and found a seat to sit down! Ai also walked toward the table, saying as he walked:

"Onoki, you are really troublesome, spending such great effort just for a seat." After finishing, a hint of a smile flashed in his eyes.

"It's not that your Kumogakure's hospitality is bad, and you didn't consider this old man, making me stand for half a day! In the end, I had to do it myself." After finishing, he also rubbed his waist. The current Onoki was much younger than he was 10 years later, at least he wouldn't sprain his waist at every turn.

Minato revealed an awkward but polite smile! He also helped Obito find two nearby seats to sit down!

Bee naturally didn't know what politeness was, found a seat, and rapped as he walked: "Life needs a sense of ritual, yeah!"

Tutai thought for a while and still stood directly behind Ai. Onoki looked at him and said: "You sit down too, Tutai, there are no outsiders here, no need to be so restrained!"

A single sentence pulled the relationship between the two sides closer. Ai revealed a hint of a smile and nodded to Tutai! Seeing this, Tutai didn't stand on ceremony and sat down directly.

Seeing everyone seated, Ai spoke first: "Speak! Tell us everything you know."

"Before explaining these, I want to know what you saw from the future memories, Ai?" Minato asked.

Ai didn't answer Minato's question but looked at Onoki. Seeing Onoki nod, he said:

"The memories I saw were until the end of the Fourth Shinobi World War. We Five Kage had been working hard to promote peace and exchange in the ninja world."

"The memories after that appeared to have a gap. I only remember that I handed the position of Raikage to Darui, and also attended the wedding of the Akimichi family and Karui, these things! I can't remember anything else!"

Minato nodded and looked at Bee's side. Bee thought for a while and said: "I only saw myself and Big Brother watching the armless Naruto after the Fourth Shinobi World War, and then nothing."

"Mine is about the same as Bee's," Tutai continued.

"Mine is about the same as the Raikage's, all about running for peace after the Fourth Shinobi World War, and then a gap appeared, and I handed the position of Tsuchikage to Kurotsuchi," the Tsuchikage said.
