This Eye of the Moon Plan is even more outrageous, to achieve world peace by having everyone dream together?
How many years of cerebral palsy would it take to come up with such a plan? What's the difference between this and directly destroying all of humanity?
"Hey, Hokage," the Raikage asked, "Is this plan serious?"
It wasn't just the Raikage; everyone felt that this so-called plan was too childish. It probably wouldn't even fool many children, so how could anyone believe it?
Minato originally didn't want to believe it either, but the facts were right in front of him, leaving him no room for doubt: "Although it's a bit bizarre, that's the truth. They're willing to give their lives for this plan. Perhaps it's because they, who have suffered so much from war, have completely despaired of this world."
Minato's words were like small hammers, striking everyone's hearts. They had all dreamed of a peaceful world, but even if they didn't say it, they believed it was impossible.
People like Ōnoki even believed that if there really was a day of peace, it would be when a certain village or country completely ruled the Shinobi World.
The closest he had ever been to peace in his life was when Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha appeared out of nowhere.
Although he was unwilling to think so, if those two had really suppressed the Shinobi World with force, and then gradually eliminated the divisions through generations of effort, perhaps the situation in the Shinobi World would be better than it is now.
"In other words, Hokage, are you saying that you agree to immediately eliminate the Akatsuki organization?" The information provided by Minato made the Raikage pay more attention to the Akatsuki organization, understanding that they must not be allowed to continue acting recklessly.
"That's right." Minato looked at the Earth Shadow and asked, "Even so, Earth Shadow, are you still going to pursue a passive waiting, defensive counterattack strategy?"
Ōnoki said, "Since things have become so serious, then let's take the initiative. We can't just watch the Shinobi World be destroyed by a group of lunatics."
He wasn't someone without courage. If he wasn't decisive at this time, things would get completely out of hand.
The Raikage's face showed joy. The most stubborn guy was willing to cooperate, which was great: "Then, should we discuss the specific actions next?"
Ōnoki said, "That's right. First of all, this kind of large-scale war action must not be fought separately. Otherwise, even if we surround Amegakure, it will easily lead to friction, and in the end, it may turn into a melee."
Yagura said, "Indeed, even if they are allies, if communication is not timely, their respective actions will inevitably interfere with each other, and the enemy will have an opportunity to take advantage of it."
Gaara said, "If fighting separately easily leads to chaos, then how about establishing an Allied Forces and unifying command?"
Ōnoki smiled, "Kazekage is still too young, thinking too simply."
Gaara asked, "Is there something wrong?"
"If we can unify command, it is indeed the best way, but the question is, who will command?" If an Allied Forces must be formed, Ōnoki certainly hoped to command it himself, otherwise it would be equivalent to entrusting the lives of his own shinobi to the Kage of other villages.
Putting himself in their shoes, Ōnoki wouldn't feel at ease, and naturally felt that others shouldn't feel at ease either, guessing that the young and vigorous Kazekage should recommend himself.
However, Gaara didn't hesitate much and said directly, "I nominate the Hokage to serve as the commander-in-chief."
"Kazekage, do you know what you're saying?" Ōnoki was dumbfounded. This kid didn't play by the rules, "If someone else serves as the commander-in-chief, it means..."
Gaara interrupted him unceremoniously: "It means that if that person has ulterior motives, then it is entirely possible to take the opportunity to consume the strength of other villages, right?"
Having been the Kazekage for so long, Gaara wasn't some naive simpleton. He would consider everything that should be considered for the village.
Ōnoki asked, "Since you understand, why can you so easily say that you want to nominate him?"
Gaara explained, "The Hokage's strength, reputation, and wisdom are all sufficient to serve as the commander-in-chief. Of course, when it comes to these, Ōnoki of the Two Scales may not be unqualified.
However, from the moment Earth Shadow you entered the door, you have always used your experience and wisdom to fight for the face and interests of the village. During the short meeting, you have left us with the impression of being old-fashioned, cunning, and stubborn. If I choose you, I cannot be convinced.
Only the Hokage has been working hard to promote the cooperation of the Five Great Shinobi Villages from beginning to end. Based on my understanding of the Hokage, he is a person who is trustworthy in all aspects."
"You really don't leave any face." Ōnoki knew what he was like, and what this kid said was all right, "Then why not the Mizukage and Raikage?"
The named Yagura raised his head and said, "Perhaps it's because Kirigakure has always been too mysterious. It's only natural that you all lack understanding of this old one, and cannot directly trust me. I have no complaints about this. If the Hokage were to be the Allied Forces commander, I have no objections."
Gaara supported his arms on the table, interlaced his fingers, and said faintly, "As for the Raikage, I think you all have the answer in your hearts. Just think about how the two of you argued before."
"What did you say?" The Raikage originally had some thoughts, but after Gaara said this, he felt he was losing face.
"Indeed, the Raikage brat is still too impatient. As the supreme commander, being impulsive and irritable won't do," Ōnoki agreed with Gaara's statement, looking at the Raikage and saying, "In that case, the Hokage is indeed the only choice."
The Raikage was a little angry, but had nothing to say. The only one he could approve of in the room was the Hokage: "Let's do it that way, I also agree with the Hokage serving as the Allied Forces commander."
"Then, thank you for your trust," Minato stood up and said, "I will do my best to win this war with everyone, and I ask for your assistance."
"That's for sure." The other four Kage also stood up in response.
Mifune stood up, leaning on his katana: "Congratulations to everyone for forming an unprecedented Allied Forces. I, Mifune, representing the Samurai of the Land of Iron, request to join the Allied Forces."
Shibuki also followed, saying, "Although the Hidden Waterfall Village is small, it is also willing to contribute."
Minato nodded to Shibuki, and then asked, "Hasn't the Land of Iron always maintained neutrality?"
Mifune replied, "This war concerns the survival of the entire Shinobi World, and we Samurai cannot stand idly by. It is better to fight hard."
After Minato exchanged glances with the other Kage, he nodded: "Then, welcome to the two of you!"
Minato was very happy, not because he became the commander-in-chief, but because his dream had finally taken the most difficult first step—successfully establishing preliminary trust between the Five Kage.
Even the Hidden Waterfall Village and the Land of Iron were added. Next, trust between the ninjas of each village would be established through coordinated combat.
Minato believed that as long as he took it step by step, mutual communication and understanding between people was by no means an impossible task!
