Chapter 501 The Five Kage Talks
"Well, don't be too sad if you didn't find it. Go back to the village as soon as possible."
After saying that, Kaito hung up the call with Uchiha Hikari.
After changing clothes, he walked out of the room.
Coincidentally, at this ti, the voice of Terumi i also ca from outside the house.
"Mizukage-sama, Mifune-sama sent soone to inform that the Kazekage Rasa had arrived. The Kages proposed to start this eting in advance."
Kaito smiled when he heard it, took his Mizukage hat from the hanger beside him, and hung it behind his back. He pushed open the door and strode out.
"Please, Kages, place your Kage hat on the table in front of you."
After Mifune finished speaking, he slowly looked around.
In the not-too-spacious eting room, there was a huge 'U'-shaped wooden table.
On the wooden table, from left to right, there were the flags corresponding to the five ninja villages of 'water, wind, fire, earth, and lightning', which swayed gently in the slightly dim light.
Just below the flag, five Kages of different appearances sat upright.
On the stands behind them, their respective guards were either standing or leaning. But they were all highly alert, ready to protect in any ergency.
The five Kages they were watching also had different expressions.
So looked arrogant, with a hint of contempt in their eyes; others frowned slightly, as if they were hostile to others.
All kinds of expressions, all different.
They all seed to be maintaining a certain degree of restraint.
But anyone with a discerning eye could see that the atmosphere in the field was quite subtle, as if a spark was missing to ignite it.
Mifune looked around and saw that all the Kage had put their hats away.
Although his temples were throbbing non-stop, he still suppressed his worries and continued to announce.
"This ti, at the suggestion of Hokage-sama, the five Kage were gathered here for a eting."
"I am Mifune, who is responsible for hosting this eting."
"The Five Kage Talks, start now!"
He finished speaking.
Mifune leaned back and sat up straight. He looked like he had nothing to do with the matter and would let everyone speak.
The whole venue was quiet for a mont.
After all, there was a precedent for the so-called Five Kage Talks.
Even the oldest of the five, Ōnoki, had never participated in it in person, let alone the eting procedures.
Mifune, the host, now showed an attitude of not wanting to participate too much, and the other five people were also silent for a while.
But after all, they were the top leaders in charge of a village, so they were not unable to handle such a small scene.
As the initiator, Namikaze Minato, with his signature smile on his face, spoke first and spoke gently.
He was ready to directly point out the main purpose of this eting.
"This ti, I convened you in the na of the Five Kage Talks, mainly..."
However, so people were too lazy to listen to Namikaze Minato's nonsense.
There was a sound of "bang~".
The Fourth Raikage Ai punched the table heavily, and the strong wind directly blew away the bamboo hat he placed in front of him.
The Fourth Raikage Ai stared at Namikaze Minato with wide eyes.
"Hokage! You better explain why you sent people to attack and the Mizukage on the way to the eting!"
As soon as the voice fell, everyone in the room turned their eyes to Namikaze Minato and fourth-generation Ai.
Obviously, even the late-arriving Kazekage Rasa knew about the previous events before the eting.
However, Kaito, one of the parties ntioned by the Fourth Raikage Ai, looked around curiously at the guards brought by each village.
'That's not right, the table has been slamd! Why is no one coming out to protect the leader?'
Kaito rembered that there seed to be a scene in the original work where everyone appeared and posed after the table was slamd.
He had been staring at the Raikage just now, waiting for this.
As a result, everyone was indifferent now.
But then, Kaito reacted again. The Raikage's seemingly powerful slam on the table didn't even break the wooden table in front of him. It was just a lot of thunder and little rain.
No wonder these guards, including i and Zabuza, didn't react much to this.
'But how co this guy Ai is weaker as he is younger?'
While Kaito was secretly complaining in his heart, he also stretched out one hand and leisurely caught the Raikage's bamboo hat that fell from the sky.
With a slight curl of his lips, he casually threw it back on the table in front of the Raikage.
As the Raikage's bamboo hat returned to its place, Kaito's voice also rang out.
"Let explain first, soone attacked on the way, but I never said that the attacker was definitely from Konohagakure."
As he spoke, the smile on Kaito's face beca more gentle.
"The bodies of the thieves who attacked and the location of the attack have been confird by Mifune-sama before."
"As for whether the attackers of Raikage-sama are from Konohagakure, or whether there is really an attack, I don't know."
Hearing that Kaito would actually speak up in this unclear situation, Namikaze Minato imdiately gave Kaito a grateful smile, and at the sa ti looked at the Fourth Raikage Ai again and said.
"The so-called attack ntioned by Raikage-sama is just one-sided and has no basis at all."
"However, I heard Mifune-sama relay that the Kumogakure Village has sent troops to the battlefield of the Land of Hot Water! The purpose of this eting was to negotiate peace. Your move is undoubtedly exacerbating the conflict. I hope Raikage-sama will reply imdiately to stop the advance to avoid a disaster!"
After listening to Mifune's announcent, Namikaze Minato was sowhat shocked by the recklessness of the Fourth Raikage.
However, according to his understanding, it must have taken a long ti for the Fourth Raikage to be attacked and then to send a ssage back to the Kumogakure Village to mobilize troops to rush to the front line.
Even according to the other party's statent, the attack may have been encountered not long after leaving the Land of Lightning.
But at this ti, it is estimated that the army has just set out.
Its purpose may be more of a deterrent by force, so Namikaze Minato's words at this ti are not too intense.
But how could he know?
The so-called excuse of "Konohagakure ninja attack" was just a temporary reason made up by the Fourth Raikage for the dispatch of the army after hearing that Kaito was attacked.
At this ti, the Kumogakure army is estimated to have been stationed in the camp of the Land of Hot Water.
After receiving the intelligence, the internal Konohagakure was almost on fire and sent troops to intercept.
However, Namikaze Minato was not in a hurry. There were indeed others who could not stand the behavior of the Kumogakure Village.
Tsuchikage Onoki, who had not spoken before, coughed twice and looked at the Raikage beside him with unhappy eyes.
"The Five Kage Talks was originally an opportunity for our five ninja villages to negotiate."
"Raikage, you actually chose to send troops at this opportunity. Aren't you a little bit underestimating the rest of our ninja villages?"
"Is the Kumogakure Village so arrogant that it can deal with our four great ninja villages at the sa ti?"
