Konoha: Start by unlocking the caged bird

Chapter 157 The Eve of the Talk
"Godaime, does this mean that before my country of lightning can deal with internal issues, I have to call Konoha and ask for your permission first?" The Fourth Raikage looked a little angry.

But Hinata Yuzuru just looked at him calmly, his voice was flat: "You and I both know that the affairs of the Moon Kingdom have nothing to do with the internal affairs of your Lightning Kingdom. If there is any connection, it is probably that his existence has hindered your path of continued expansion, that's all.

You can sanction him financially. Of course, Konoha also has the ability to support him, but if you want to use this method, this means.
As of now, Konoha has signed a corresponding defense agreement with the Kingdom of the Moon. If the Kingdom of Lightning wants to go to war with Konoha, or go to war with the allies around Konoha, I am not afraid. "

Hinata Yuzuru's words were extremely calm, but revealed a strong confidence. The Fourth Raikage had a dark face and just snorted, but he suppressed his usual temper and said, "The evidence is irrefutable. Either the Moon Country compensates for the theft, or we will make them pay in our own way.

If Konoha is just relying on its strength and intends to act recklessly, the 100,000 ninjas in the Land of Lightning are not cowards either!"

It is said to be one hundred thousand, but just listen to what you say at this time. If there are only one tenth of the ninja who can really go to the battlefield, it can be considered that the Kingdom of Thunder has developed well in these years.

Hinata Yuzuru looked at the Raikage on the monitor with deep eyes, reached out and gently took off the bamboo hat on his head, his blue eyes looked a little indifferent: "Then tell the facts and reason, Konoha's people will also investigate the whole incident.

I still remember it clearly - when the Hidden Cloud Village came to Konoha to discuss the contract, someone almost took my sister Hinata away. Has the Hidden Cloud Village figured out where that unlucky guy was a spy from? "

The irony in the words made the Raikage's face darken, but he just laughed and said, "It's up to you, but what if the evidence is conclusive?"

“Then you can sit down and talk.

Fourth Raikage, the times have changed."

Hinata Yuzuru looked at the Fourth Raikage with an uneasy expression on the LCD screen, and said calmly: "Before the Five Kage Talks, this matter will be stopped here. If it is true, I will urge the Moon Country to compensate the Lightning Country, but assassination by violent means and rashly disrupting the stable environment are absolutely not acceptable in today's world.

I have also seen the situation in the Land of Lightning. The people live and work in peace and contentment, and the economy is growing rapidly. It is much better than before - but if you are greedy,
The snake swallows the elephant, the snake dies and the elephant lives. "

Facing his warning, the Fourth Raikage finally couldn't bear his anger and sneered: "The Fifth Raikage has become more and more sharp. From my point of view, between you and me, it is still unclear who is the giant python.

Well, I don't want to get into any more trouble with you on the eve of the Five Kage Summit, so let's talk about this matter when we meet."

"My thoughts are always the same, Yondaime, and so are you." Hinata Yuzuru laughed twice and took the initiative to cut off the video call.

The conversation between the two could be said to have ended on bad terms. The conversation between the two Kages was straightforward, but in the end it was the Fourth Raikage who seemed more fearful. It was no wonder that even though he did not attend the Chuunin Exam that day. Even though he wasn't involved, Payne's Earth Explosion Star and Hinata Yuzuru's 'Soft Fist' still made him feel the incredible aftermath from a distance.

This kind of power forced him to be cautious - even though he felt that with his two Chūriki plus himself, plus the Iwagakure Village that was allied with Ōnoki, they might be able to fight Konoha, but he had to consider that even if they could win, the Land of Lightning would probably suffer heavy losses.

By then, I'm afraid that the Thunder Country's dominant position in the north will be difficult to maintain. Instead of that, it would be better for it to occupy half of the country as it does now and slowly erode the surrounding small countries. The best expansion is to boil the frog in warm water.

just
After Raikage turned off the video, his expression became even colder: Konoha was determined to hinder the development of his Land of Lightning.

In business and technology competitions, the Leiyan Alliance can only maintain a posture of catching up. In very small areas, relying on previous technology accumulation, it maintains a weak lead, but overall, it is in many new areas. It was lagging behind across the board, especially in terms of sophisticated modern information technology, which almost entirely relied on imitation and import of Konoha technology.

Even if we can still rely on our own technological advantages to harvest the market of small countries and protect the market through taxes at home, there are some things that cannot be escaped, such as the construction of communication base stations and the construction of today's networks. These core technologies are all under Konoha's control. Under control.

Chips and other high-end production materials all have to be spent a lot of money on Konoha, so that they can be purchased from Konoha and then brought to the factory to be sold together, thus earning a craft fee, but most of them are still in Konoha's hands.

Ai didn't even dare to think how strong Konoha would become over time - he was really afraid that if he waited another ten or twenty years, Konoha would become the dominant one, leaving the Kingdom of Thunder with no power for the rest of his life. Turned over.

This Five Kage Summit is probably the most critical moment.

The Raikage breathed a sigh of relief, remained silent for a moment, and called his secretary, Mabuyi.

"Mabui, what's the situation in the Sand Village?"

The Raikage gently reached out and rubbed his temple. Unlike Hyuga Yuzuru, as the Raikage, he had to do much more work than Hyuga Yuzuru, who had already put Konoha on the right track. The team he had built was far inferior to Konoha's team. He had to do many things himself, and recently, he often felt lack of energy.

To be honest, the increasing number of new things and the changes in the ninja world sometimes make Ai feel a little tired and even difficult to adapt. Although he has a staff group to help with planning and analysis, he still feels that Konoha may have many killer moves hidden in the dark, and he knows nothing about it.

He couldn't tell where this feeling of uneasiness came from, but as a powerful ninja, he trusted his instincts on this matter.

Mabui said respectfully, "Lord Raikage, the Fourth Kazekage still said that he needs to think carefully, but in my opinion, with Luosha's ambition and mind, the success or failure of this matter depends on whether we can come to some conclusions during the Five Kage Summit."

"I hope so." Ai had an inexplicable expression - in fact, although he also thought that it was time for everyone to sit down and talk about the rules of the new era, he felt inexplicably resistant to Hinata Yuzuru's initiative. In fact, most of the other Kage felt the same.

No one knows what Konoha’s expectations for the Five Kage Summit mean. Is it the beginning of a show of force, a formal declaration of war, or some other agenda?
Ai sighed and said, “Send a message to Iwakage and tell him about today’s conversation with Hinata Yuzuru.

The current situation in Konoha has changed, and Hyuga Yuzuru has shown his potential. We can no longer have any illusions on this trip.

If it is really impossible, then even if there is a bloody battle, Konoha must not be allowed to return to the situation of the first generation. "

Now it seems to be almost done. Mabui also sighed in his heart, but his expression was serious. He nodded heavily: "Yes! Lord Raikage!"

As the Five Kage Summit approaches, the outside world is discussing this matter more and more.

Almost all the media are talking about this matter. The small countries are either happy or worried about this. Some small countries choose to use the media to appeal, and some talk to the Shinobi Country in private. Everything they talk about is yearning for this time. The Five Shadows Conference can come up with a result and set rules.

A new pattern has emerged, but the new rules of the game are still a little chaotic. Big countries are wary of each other for fear of lighting a fuse, but small countries are walking on thin ice because of this, making it difficult for them day and night.

Among them, the small countries headed by Konoha reacted the most violently - they couldn't wait to be led by Konoha and formulate a new set of rules to restrain the chaotic ninja world. The peace and freedom that Hyuga Yuzuru called for were both An attractive beacon, but it also bears huge responsibility and pressure from public opinion.

It seems that you can hear discussions about the Five Shadows Talks everywhere in newspapers, TV stations, and radio stations. From time to time, so-called experts will jump out to discuss the matter. Among them, the most famous experts are none other than the original few. The great name of Ninja Country.

Nowadays, these people are forced to retreat to the second line, or even the fourth or fifth line, and can only participate in some symbolic work. They have lost their original ability to cover the sky with one hand. Now, they seem to be eager to find some other ways to realize their influence.

Several daimyos stood on the standpoint of their respective ninja countries and criticized with their saliva and pens, and the fight was in full swing.

However, the Five Kage showed extreme restraint. Before the meeting began, no one expressed a clear attitude. They only vaguely expressed their respective inclinations, which was like sending a signal before the meeting began.

For example, Kirigakure Village firmly stated that it believes that Konoha, as the strongest ninja country today, should be the leader of the new era. Kirigakure Village will work with Konoha to create a peaceful ninja world while ensuring its own interests. put in effort.

The Iwagakure Village also said that we also have the dream of peace in the ninja world. As an old ninja village, we also have our own dream and path for peace.
But there is still a hint of tension, such as the issues that reporters frequently raise, such as patent law, cross-border law enforcement, and whether ninja killings should be restricted in non-wartime periods.
Hyuga Yuzuru gradually became extremely busy. The proposals put forward by everyone in Konoha and his own plans began to be re-examined and sorted out over and over again. The staff began to make plans and rehearse for different situations. Finally, until On the eve of leaving Konoha for the Iron Country to attend the Five Kage Conference, Hyuga Yuzuru was finally able to take a good rest from get off work.

But even so, after leaving the office, he still couldn't rest, just because a major event closely related to Izumi had finally settled.

In the laboratory, the researchers finally confirmed the synthesis scheme of the Eternal Mangekyō after tedious and complex experiments on Obito's Mangekyō Sharingan. Among the several Uchiha who have opened their Mangekyō, Izumi is lucky to be the most compatible with Obito's Mangekyō Sharingan, but even so, according to experimental analysis, it is difficult to determine whether Izumi can successfully fuse and digest Obito's Mangekyō and advance to the Eternal Mangekyō.

If successful, Izumi will become the first Uchiha to possess the Eternal Mangekyō after Uchiha Madara for many years. If failed, Obito's Mangekyō will probably be difficult to preserve, and it may even affect Izumi's own Mangekyō.

In fact, the person closest to the Eternal Mangekyō is Itachi - he still has his father, Uchiha Fugaku's Mangekyō Sharingan in his hand, but he begged Hinata Yuzuru to keep it for him, as if he had other uses for it.

Hinata Yuzuru knew without even thinking that Itachi was definitely planning to leave it for Sasuke, but Sasuke was a long way from opening the Mangekyō, and it was unknown whether Itachi had any plans of his own.

On the eve of departure, Hinata Yuzuru took Izumi to the laboratory alone.

"Izumi, you make your own decision." Hyuga Yuzuru explained to Izumi the risks of this kaleidoscope transplant in the research room, and calmly asked for his opinion.

As expected, Quan was silent for a moment. This was a gamble. If she won, everyone would be happy. She was probably going to take this opportunity to become one of Konoha's top fighters.

If he failed, it was very likely that his current kaleidoscope would be affected.

But soon, she made a decision, which did not surprise Hinata Yuzuru.

"I'm going to try." Quan's expression was serious and solemn.

Hinata Yuzuru reached out his hand and gently stroked her shoulder-length hair: "You know, Konoha now does not need you to fight for your lives."

"I know." Quan just smiled calmly, letting him stroke her black hair, and said softly: "Even if I don't want to admit it, I don't want to give up this opportunity to become stronger. Even if this may not mean much to you, to you and me."

She gently leaned her head forward and rested it on his chest: "Even if we fail, it doesn't matter, right."

Hinata Yuzuru stared at her quietly for a long time, then smiled slightly: "I won't let you fail."

Quan didn't know why he was so sure and confident, but after hearing that, he just smiled and said, "That's even less of a problem, isn't it?"

Hinata Yuzuru nodded, and Kabuto Yakushi beside him understood and said, "I'll contact Lady Tsunade, we'll do the surgery together."

"I'll do it myself."

Hinata Yuzuru said, "Prepare the operating room and isolation ward."

Yakushi Kabuto did not hesitate at all and just asked, "Do it tonight?"

"Yeah." After Hinata Yuzuru finished speaking, he was silent for a moment and glanced at Izumi: "After the Five Kage Conference, I think the Fourth War is coming."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of Quan and Yakushi Kabuto became serious.

Hinata Yuzuru surprisingly continued: "Even if they can bear it, I don't intend to wait any longer."

"Why? In Master Yuzuru's situation, the longer we delay, the greater our chances of winning should be. The analysis of the Outer Path Demon Statue is almost complete. With the experience gained from the artificial tailed beasts, we..."

Before Yakushi Kabuto finished speaking, Hyuga Yuzuru shook his head and said directly without avoiding Izumi: "My condition is not very good."

After saying this, Izumi subconsciously stared at his face, but Hyuga Yuzuru just said calmly: "My body will soon reach a new threshold. In the new stage of change, I am not sure that I can still have the fighting power at this stage.

Moreover, I am not sure how long I can last in this process. If I want to overcome this difficulty stably and safely, the battle of endurance must begin.

If everything goes well, who knows, when the fourth battle is over, my transformation will be complete.

However, how far my evolutionary path will lead, what changes will occur in my body, and how long it will take are all unknown.

I must pacify this ninja world while I can still fight!
The battle will not stop until the rules I set become the rules of this ninja world. "

Hinata Yuzuru's words made Yakushi Kabuto stare at him blankly for a while, and then a smile of increasing respect and admiration appeared on his face: "Since Lord Yuzuru has made a decision, I believe that it must be the best decision."

Izumi was silent, but suddenly understood why Hinata Yuzuru was so eager to perform the surgery on her on the eve of departure.

On the one hand, it is to ensure that she will be safer in the subsequent four wars. On the other hand, Hinata Yuzuru is probably also preparing for what will happen after the fourth war.

"Yuzuru." She looked worried and depressed, biting her lower lip lightly, without saying a word.

Even he was so cautious about the so-called "evolution", which only meant that this matter was absolutely extremely important, but she, as always, could only watch from the sidelines.
Hinata Yuzuru smiled at her and said, "There will be no danger to life. It's just for safety."

"Don't think too much." He patted Quan's head gently, turned his head and looked at Pharmacist Kabuto: "Let's get started. The sooner the operation is done, the sooner we can see the reaction after the operation."

"Yes, I'll prepare it now." Pharmacist Kabuto tactfully left to prepare the operating room for the kaleidoscope transplant.

And Quan, after a brief silence, whispered, "Will you leave me?"

"For safety reasons, my initial plan is to stay as far away from Konoha as possible and evolve my body in a safe and remote place." Hinata Yuzuru said, but then he comforted him, "It's still early. At least, it will take more than half a year."

"Only half a year?" Quan was stunned for a moment.

What this means.
He actually wanted to start the Fourth Ninja World War and end this battle within this half year!

"Do not worry"

"Wait until the battle begins."

"I will end this war myself."

"All it takes is a fight."

"Will suffice."
