"Teacher, your letter is really well written."
"That's right. I'd love to invite them to visit the Rain Country. You don't know how lively the new town is right now, hahahahaha."
Then the Konoha Anbu set out overnight, crossing the desert, the ocean, the mountains, and the plateau.
The first meeting of the five major nations outside of the Ninja War is officially underway.
No one knows how the other three Kage will react to the signal sent by Konoha.
After all, the last person who did this was called Hashirama Senju.
Chapter 137: The Poor Kazekage, the Fateful Raikage
"The Hokage gave it to me?"
In the Kazekage's office, young Rasa and the two elders looked at each other in bewilderment as they looked at the letter that had just been sent by the Konoha Anbu.
"Isn't Konoha's internal reorganization in full swing right now? What's the matter with you suddenly writing to me?"
Konoha's various reform measures had long been spread to other ninja villages by spies.
Some people ridiculed that this was a face-saving project done by the new Hokage who was eager to establish a politically correct image after taking office.
Some people admired the new Hokage and thought he was very capable in consolidating power in this way.
There are also people who are seriously studying Konoha to see if it has found a new direction for development. If it is the right thing to do, they don't mind imitating and learning, just like they imitated the second generation's ninja school and Anbu back then.
Only the Sand Village stood by and watched, doing nothing.
Because of poverty, every reform made by Konoha is accompanied by a large amount of capital flow.
I can't believe that after fighting three wars and then another confrontation with the Land of Lightning, Konoha still has such a strong financial foundation.
What else can we do besides envy the Sand Village? We can only continue mining to pay off our debts.
After Konoha rose to power, they no longer dared to delay the payment of war reparations, as the new Hokage had three major things to do when he took office.
After opening the letter and reading the contents, Rasa felt that the new Hokage was really vain. Discussing peace and strengthening ties was simply a waste of time.
The Third Ninja World War is over, and the Land of Lightning has been brought to peace by you.
Get together and declare the war over. We are all good friends. Isn't it a waste of your mining time to talk nonsense?
Elder Chiyo, however, had a different view. She and Ebizo looked at each other and realized the seriousness of the problem.
Maybe it's the ambition of the new Hokage or he wants to test something. It's normal for young people to have some ideas.
And precisely because he is young, it is best not to offend him easily.
What is more likely is that this Fifth Hokage is imitating Hashirama Senju.
"Senju Hashirama! Are the two elders overthinking this? How dare Hatake Kakashi imitate the God of the Ninja World?"
Even though they are in a hostile position, the legend of the God of Ninja World is extremely famous all over the world.
“Don’t underestimate Kakashi. He may be far from the level of the God of Ninja World now, but who can guarantee that he won’t get close in the future?
He is the new Hokage who can defeat the old fox Sarutobi Hiruzen. He should not be underestimated.
It's a pity that you didn't fight Sarutobi Hiruzen head-on in the battle of Mount Kikyo.
We had a fierce fight with that old guy back then and were defeated miserably.
The opponent's ninjutsu was so superb and forbidden that it was unpredictable. To be able to defeat the Third Hokage, the strength of the Son of White Fang must have reached a very terrifying level.
So we should respond and participate in the Five Kage Talks initiated by the other party.
It's a good opportunity to test the other party's tolerance and ability, as well as the ambition that is vaguely revealed."
After analysis by Chiyo and others, Rasa decided to meet the new Hokage.
Of course, it would be better if they could flatter the other party to reduce some of the Sand Village's debt. This is also the prudent advice of the elders.
This is the sadness of the weak. They have to analyze a letter from the strong for such a long time and come up with a response.
Finally, the two elders decided to accompany Luo Sha and arrive at the Rain Kingdom at the agreed time.
As for the hatred with White Fang... there is no hope of revenge.
"By the way, how's Gaara doing lately?"
"The seal is badly damaged. It's really annoying that it runs wild in the village from time to time. It's getting harder and harder to suppress it."
"Alas, our progress in sealing techniques is too backward. The other four countries have achieved basic control, but we are still in the initial stage of sealing."
Chiyo was a little melancholy because the original route chosen for the Sand Village was wrong.
The second generation's puppetry led the village onto the path of burning money and war, which naturally caused investments in other areas to fall into difficulties.
It was fine in the early stages to fight to support the war, but once the momentum of development was interrupted, it would fall into the dilemma of mining and maintaining the figures.
Means like the Three Treasures' absorption are inadequate for the tailed beasts, and there is no funding left for further research and development.
"Then I'll use my own method."
Rasa's method is the traditional method of controlling the Jinchūriki, which makes the two elders feel a little uncomfortable.
"He was born in the Sand Village. He is the son of the Kazekage. He should bear more responsibilities than others."
Luo Sha replied that he was looking forward to the peace conference called by the Fifth Hokage and would go to the Rain Country within the specified time limit.
The letter that Noah wrote to the Raikage is interesting.
The letter was sent directly to the Cloud Village Hospital.
The Raikage, who was visiting Killer Bee in the hospital, crushed the bedside on the spot when he heard the letter from the Hokage.
The unlucky Jinchūriki rolled to the ground and howled in pain. After a while of chaos, the scene calmed down.
"That Kakashi guy dared to write to me. I want to see what he says! How dare he hurt my brother."
It was more touching and painful than lying on the new hospital bed, but I was still happy for my brother's generosity.
"Brother, stay calm. That guy is not normal. He is definitely much stronger than when he fought you. The Niu Gui was beaten and fell into a deep sleep in the seal to recover, so..."
Then the Fourth Raikage opened the letter and looked at it for a while before becoming silent, as if thinking about something.
"Brother? What did you write in the letter? Do you want a duel? Can the two of us beat him up?"
"Bi, shut up!"
Kirabi was confused after being scolded. You were just furious and wanted to take revenge on me.
The reason why the Raikage fell into deep thought while looking at the letter was not because of all the other nonsense like making rules in peace or more cooperation in the ninja world.
Although these words were very organized and sounded very tempting, he was ultimately attracted by the first sentence.
"Fourth Raikage, let us meet again as Kages. See you in the Land of Rain."
This sentence had an immediate and powerful killing effect on the Fourth Raikage.
What he always regretted was that he did not fulfill his appointment with the Fourth Hokage.
Unexpectedly, Minato's students had made the same agreement with him a few years ago.
What was even more unexpected was that Kakashi actually used his own methods to become the Fifth Hokage, and really fulfilled his promise to meet again as Hokage.
This sense of fate is an unparalleled temptation for the strong in the ninja world.
He just threw the letter to Ma Buyi beside him.
"Go and ask the elders to analyze the rest of the letter, and then form a team to follow me to the Rain Country."
"Rain Country! Wouldn't that mean it's close to the territories of the Earth Country and the Fire Country? Lord Raikage, don't we need to negotiate this?"
"No need! Tell them I must go this time!"
"Yes, I understand."
Ma Buyi saw the determination and the uncontrollable fire in his boss's eyes.
As the secretary of the Raikage who triggered the coup in Konoha, she can only follow closely now, because if she is abandoned, she will be killed by others for any reason.
Chapter 138 Black Zetsu: We Must Go to the Land of Water
So they found the elders and began to discuss the conspiracy behind the formulation of the framework for the ninja world and equality.
In this way, the Kingdom of Thunder was conquered.
The Water Kingdom is very interesting.
Black Zetsu was originally on a mission in the Ninja World, but after learning through secret channels that there was a letter from Konoha, he immediately rushed back to the village. No matter how reassured he was, he did not want Sarutobi Hiruzen to be affected by his original village.
"I heard there was a letter from Konoha."
"Yes, invite the Fourth Mizukage to go to the Rain Village to attend the Five Kage Summit."
"What's the reason?"
"Establish new rules for the ninja world, including institutional economy, people's livelihood, peace, and some other things."
Black Zetsu breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately it was not a sensitive issue.
"It doesn't seem to make much sense, so we just ignore them."
"No! It means a lot. Kakashi's ambition is no longer just to be a Hokage. His ambition is to set his own rules in the entire ninja world.
The last person to do this was the Shodaime-sama, who ended the years of war in the ninja world through the Five Kage Summit.
And Kakashi did this when peace was already in place, just paving the way for his ambitions.
I have a feeling that the trigger for the Fourth Ninja World War lies with this Fifth Hokage."
Sarutobi Hiruzen said this with a serious face, and his eyes were filled with even more murderous intent.
Black Zetsu was also shocked when he thought about it. The old Hokage's vision was indeed sharp. He saw the essence of the problem at a glance.
but……
Kakashi Hatake and Noah have an unclear relationship. What does his behavior mean?
This means that launching the Ninja World War was also the choice of the Akatsuki organization. Is the plan to burn the world actually progressing steadily?
The only area of overlap between the two sides is in the direction of weakening the five major powers.
At this time Black Zetsu had a strange idea.
If Kakashi really built an alliance that could stop the war among the five major countries, then the Moon Eye Project would suffer a huge setback, and it would be difficult to provoke friction again.
"No, he can't succeed."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's words were very decisive.
"The first Hokage used his overwhelming force and Uchiha Madara to overwhelm the entire world. He was a god-like existence that went beyond the boundaries of ninja.
This is the truth to achieving peace. No matter how beautiful Kakashi and others' new Will of Fire sound, it is just an illusion.
Either start from the bottom and raise the moral and production levels of all people to a certain level, and then use an extremely complex system of checks and balances to bring peace to the ninja village.
This is much more difficult than if another Hashirama Senju appeared.
The hatred between the five major countries, the hatred between small countries and big countries, and the hatred between people are not so easy to resolve. They simply do not understand what human evil is. "
Black Zetsu nodded. No one who tried to do this in the past thousand years had a good ending.
During the time of Hashirama Senju, he was also watching everything happen in secret. Every few hundred years, two outstanding people would be born to re-plan the chakra system.
But no one has succeeded until now.
“So the best outcome of this meeting is that the five major countries will form a peace alliance on the surface, but in reality, the intrigues and conflicts of interest will become more intense.
If someone is pushing it secretly... the accumulated hatred will be even stronger.
A few years from now, there will be a Fourth Ninja World War that will be countless times more brutal than any previous war."
The current Fourth Mizukage and the former Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, was very opposed to Kakashi's behavior.
He expressed in strong words that he would not allow the other side to drag Konoha into the center of the war, and even planned to write letters to the other Kage to ask them not to fall into Konoha's trap. In short, he would try every means to sabotage this Five Kage Summit.
Black Zetsu thought for a moment and felt that he must promote this event, because according to this reasoning, it would be the Akatsuki organization that could take the lead in launching a war that would sweep across the entire ninja world.
