Chapter 231: Major Event: The False Peace

After today's battle, it was not impossible for Rain Country to replace Lightning Country as one of the Five Great Nations. After all, the reason the Five Great Nations were the Five Great Nations in the first place was because of military strength.

Moreover, Lightning Country's current strength truly could no longer measure up to the position of one of the Five Great Nations.

The Raikage's death, the destruction of more than half of Kumogakure — these various ordeals had already dragged their strength down to rock bottom.

Upon hearing Li Ang's words, the battlefield instantly fell silent.

Tsunade and Mei Terumi, who were still lucid, exchanged a glance and fell into thought for a moment.

But just then, Li Ang's cold voice rang out once more: "This is a notification, not a question."

After going through so much effort to fight, he was not seeking the agreement of these beaten dogs before him.

Well, actually, it hadn't taken that much effort either.

Looking at the still-terrifyingly imposing cyan-red giant before her, Tsunade said composedly, "Rain Country replacing Lightning Country as one of the Five Great Nations is no problem, but on the matter of the jinchūriki we cannot compromise, and if you want to adjudicate the dispute—"

She had not finished speaking before she was cut off.

"You have no choice."

Li Ang's tone was calm, as if stating a fact.

Hearing this, Tsunade's heart sank — sure enough, they still had to keep fighting.
