Naruto followed Minato away, secretly marveling at how cool his old man had been just now. Couldn't Shisui's eyes practically overflow with admiration?
Shiranui Genma, Namikaze Raidō, and Tatami Iwashi were left at the Daimyo Residence as guards. The three of them were quite strong and knew the Flying Thunder Formation Technique, so they could directly take the Daimyo and run if anything happened.
Although Naruto could do it too, Naruto could do many things, and they couldn't just leave everything to him.
In the conference room at this moment, the Daimyo reopened his folding fan and gently waved it.
A minister asked, "Daimyo-sama, do you really believe that the Fourth Hokage can do what even the First Hokage couldn't?"
"Who knows about such things?" The Daimyo smiled. "But he reminds me of the dream I had when I first succeeded the Daimyo position."
"Your dream?"
"Yes, at that time, I also thought about creating a career that surpassed my ancestors." The Daimyo said with some emotion, "But as time went on, I almost forgot it myself."
The ministers looked at the Daimyo and fell into deep thought. Did we also once have our own dreams?
...
The other Kage also met with the Daimyos of their respective countries.
The Land of Lightning Daimyo was the most straightforward. Faced with the Raikage's request, he immediately agreed. He always valued the issue of the Five Great Nations' reputation.
"The Allied Forces are not a problem, but is Cloud Village's combat power still enough to stand alongside the other four great nations?" The Land of Lightning Daimyo didn't have much confidence in the current state of Cloud Village.
"Most of the elite ninjas are fine, and we will never let the Land of Lightning be disgraced!" The Raikage vowed to the Daimyo.
"Then it's decided." The Land of Lightning Daimyo expressed his support.
The Land of Earth Daimyo was also relatively easy to talk to because he believed that Ōnoki's decisions would definitely be beneficial to the Land of Earth.
Although Ōnoki stated to the Daimyo that this time he was considering the issue from the perspective of the entire Shinobi World, rather than simply seeking benefits for the Land of Earth.
"If the entire Shinobi World can become better, then it can also be considered beneficial to our Land of Earth. Go ahead and do it." The Land of Earth Daimyo was willing to fully support him.
The Land of Water Daimyo was still timid, and he panicked when he saw Yagura and Zabuza looking fierce.
Actually, the two of them weren't doing it on purpose. It was mainly because the village had been attacked, and many companions had died, so they always had a straight face.
In addition, Yagura had a scar extending from his left eye to his jaw, and Zabuza covered his mouth and nose with bandages and had no eyebrows. The two of them didn't even need to make any expressions to look fierce.
"Since the Five Kage unanimously agree, and Mizukage, you have also made a decision, then let's do it. That Akatsuki is indeed an unstable factor." The Land of Water Daimyo timidly expressed his support.
Only the Land of Wind Daimyo hesitated. Fighting a war would cost money, and he felt the pain of spending money.
It's funny to say that the Land of Wind is the poorest of the Five Great Nations, but the Land of Wind Daimyo is the fattest of the five Daimyos. As long as he wrote a big "food" character on his chest, it wouldn't be out of place to say that he was from the Akimichi clan.
"Fifth Kazekage, I can understand your desire to eliminate threats to the Shinobi World, but isn't the Allied Forces a bit too much of a fuss? You have to know that our Land of Wind's funds are very tight, this..." The Land of Wind Daimyo wanted to say whether it could be entrusted to other ninja villages to handle.
Temari and Kankuro glared resentfully at the Land of Wind Daimyo's q-bomb belly. Where exactly were the funds tight?
Gaara said calmly, "They are a group of powerful people who will do anything to achieve their goals. They may even attack the Daimyos of various countries to threaten us. It's better to join forces with other ninja villages."
"This..." The funds suddenly weren't tight anymore! The Land of Wind Daimyo was very clear-headed when his safety was threatened. Now was not the time to save money. If he saved any more, he would save himself in, "Ahem... Since they are such a dangerous group of people, then I agree!"
...
Rain Country.
Konan and Deva Path Pain looked at the three things placed before them, unsure of what to say for a moment.
The three things were: a deformed White Zetsu, a Samehada that looked like it had indigestion, and a monk, Fa Yi, who only had a breath left.
"Are you sure this is okay?" Pain asked the large Venus flytrap opposite him.
Konan also had a 'are you kidding me' expression.
"Even without a whole Tailed Beast, having enough Chakra is fine." Black Zetsu said, indicating that they should believe him, explaining the uses of each one.
"This White Zetsu used the Spore Technique to absorb the Three Tails' Chakra, Samehada absorbed the Six Tails' Chakra, and this monk Fa Yi is amazing. He once trapped the One Tail and Seven Tails Jinchuriki with his own power, sealing a lot of Tailed Beast Chakra. It took a lot of effort to steal him.
As long as they are all absorbed by the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path... Kisame, don't look at me like that. If you can't bear to part with Samehada, let it give its Chakra to White Zetsu."
Kisame withdrew his murderous gaze. Actually, he wouldn't mind abandoning Samehada for the plan if he hardened his heart, but Samehada, this little cutie, had been with him for so many years, so he had some feelings for it. So, he would just use White Zetsu; there were plenty of those anyway.
Black Zetsu continued to persuade, "It won't hurt to try. The main thing is that the Five Great Nations have already taken action, and we don't have much time left."
After a moment of silence, Pain nodded and said, "Alright."
Indeed, there wasn't much time left. Pain summoned the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path.
Samehada transferred the Six Tails Chakra to an innocent White Zetsu, hopping back to Kisame's side.
Deidara reattached an arm, the suture not fully healed, but it didn't affect his ability to help with the sealing.
Perhaps because it wasn't a complete Tailed Beast being sealed, the progress was fast this time. The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path opened its big mouth and quickly devoured the Chakra. Black Zetsu even threw Monk Fa Yi and White Zetsu in together.
The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path has nine eyes on its head. Each time a Tailed Beast is successfully sealed, one eye will open. Before this, the Two Tails, Four Tails, Five Tails, and Eight Tails had been sealed, and the corresponding eyes were all open.
And after this sealing, the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path slowly opened four more... eyes?
Everyone looked at Black Zetsu strangely. The eyes should either be open or closed. What was the deal with these four eyes being half-open and half-closed? Were they not fully awake?
"This... maybe it's not enough Chakra? But awakening the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path is definitely possible." Black Zetsu forcibly explained, "Now we only need the Nine Tails Chakra, and there will definitely be changes then!"
The others had no choice but to believe him.
Deidara hated this kind of semi-finished product, commenting, "Like dead fish eyes, not artistic at all, hmm."
