Born with a great love for the Uchiha

Don't be fooled by how fierce the Ninja World War was or how many people died.

In terms of the specific frequency of battles.

The era of the ninja village was far less significant than that of the Warring States period!

Especially during the years after the end of the Ninja War, when the villages were recuperating.

The ninja world can still maintain peace and order!

Even the worst order is better than absolute chaos.

By now.

The second Five-Image Summit is about to be held.

Mifune knew that the convener of this Five Kage Summit—the Fifth Hokage, Gen Uchiha—would determine the ninja world's格局 (geju, a term referring to the overall situation or structure) for a longer period of time.

Just like Hashirama Senju back then.

Good news: Konoha ninjas are more "humane" than ninjas from other villages.

Bad news: The Fifth Hokage of Konoha is surnamed Uchiha!

'Will the Uchiha clan bring peace...?'

Chapter 233 Departure! The Five Kage Summit of a New Era!

Time flies, and several days have passed.

Only a few days remain before the Five Shadows Summit officially begins.

The Land of Iron is located in the northern part of the continent and does not border any of the five great nations, including the Land of Fire.

Foreigners who wish to reach the Land of Iron must either fly there, travel by ship, or pass through the Land of Waterfalls or the Land of Medicine.

Even at the speed of a ninja, it would take a long time to travel from the various villages to Sanrou Mountain, located in the heart of the Land of Iron.

The journey will take at least two days, and possibly more.

Therefore, apart from the leaves.

The shadows from the other villages began to set off for the Land of Iron.

……

The Land of Earth, Hidden Rock Village.

Onoki, fully prepared, chattered incessantly at the yellow earth in front of him.

"After I leave the village, I will temporarily entrust all matters within the village to you..."

"That brat Uchiha Genji is definitely planning something at this Five Kage Summit..."

"I have no idea what I'll encounter..."

"If anything happens to me, you will be the fourth generation leader of the village!"

Judging from Onoki's posture, it seemed as if he wasn't going to the Five Kage Summit, but rather heading to his own execution site...

Looking at his father's tragic expression, Huang Tu didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Dad—"

How many times do I have to remind you?!

Onoki puffed out his beard and glared, jumping three feet high.

"Use your job title when you're at work!"

"...Yes, Lord Sandaime."

Huang Tu readily agreed and then offered words of comfort.

"We have already signed a peace treaty with Konoha, and the Fifth Hokage won't do anything to you."

The last time, Gen Uchiha personally went to Iwagakure.

Although he directly broke through the defensive barrier of Iwagakure, violently seized the Four-Tails and Five-Tails from Iwagakure, and sliced ​​off the rocky mountain barrier surrounding Iwagakure with a single slash...

However, the casualties in Iwagakure were not significant that time. The specific casualty figures were mostly from the aftermath of the battle, and there were not many Iwagakure ninjas killed by Uchiha Gen himself.

This is also the reason why loess is described in this way.

If Gen Uchiha really wanted to do something to the ninjas of Iwagakure.

Let alone people like Onoki, Rōshi, and Kan.

Take Huang Tu himself, for example, he should have died on the battlefield of the Frost Kingdom long ago!

But in the end, Uchiha Gen still let him go.

"You know Naruto, but you don't understand the Uchiha clan!"

Onoki snorted and fastened the Tsuchikage's hat with his other hand.

"It's no wonder that those inherently evil red-eyed people do whatever they want!"

"He might be smiling and talking to you one second, and the next second he might suddenly explode—"

"Old man!"

The former Five-Tails Jinchuriki, Han, spoke impatiently, but what he said reflected the thoughts of everyone else present.

"How much longer are you going to ramble on at the village entrance? Let's get going!"

"Hurry up! All you ever do is rush me!"

Onoki glared at Han, then formed hand seals and released a ninjutsu.

[Light and Heavy Rock Technique]!

Lifted by an invisible force, Onoki's body floated up and then landed on Han's back.

"Slow down later! My old bones can't withstand the violent charge of [Boiling Release]."

Onoki already had an old injury in his lower back.

The Land of Earth and the Land of Iron are far apart, and Ōnoki could not possibly travel on one leg alone.

So he found a "mount" - the former Five-Tails Jinchuriki Han!

By the way.

Han was also one of Onoki's attendants at the Five Kage Summit.

"If you can't take it, then switch to Lao Zi's back!"

Rōshi was another of Ōnoki's attendants.

Since Uchiha Gen "reclaimed" the Four-Tails and Five-Tails from Iwagakure.

After losing the power of the Tailed Beasts, the two Jinchūriki, Rōshi and Han, actually improved their relationship with the village and stopped arguing about leaving.

This Five-Photo Summit.

Onoki originally intended to bring his disciples, Yotsuchi and Akatsuchi, along with him.

After careful consideration, he decided to leave the loess in the village and instead brought along the two former jinchūriki.

This is in response to the linguistic rebuttal from the Han people.

Onoki, who was perched on the former's back, raised his fist and tapped the straw hat on Han's head lightly.

"Do you want Old Purple's [Molten Release] to burn me to death?"

[Boiling Release] At most, it might break apart Onoki's old bones.

【Lava Release】can actually cremate Onoki on the spot!

Old Purple glanced at Onoki and Kan, who still wanted to continue arguing, and couldn't help but shake his head.

He picked up his luggage and gear, and immediately set off, taking the lead at the front.

"I'm leaving now..."

……

The Land of Water, the Hidden Mist Village.

The high-ranking elders of Kirigakure, led by Master Genji, were also seeing off Mei Terumi and the others.

"Lord Mizukage, I'm entrusting this to you."

Master Yuan, leaning on his cane, spoke earnestly.

"Stand firm in following the Hokage, do not deviate from the 'path,' but also do not forget your 'stance.'"

"Enough with the nonsense! I am the Mizukage!"

Mei Terumi took the straw hat from Genji's hand.

"While I am away, the village is in your care, Elder Yuanshi."

"If you have any questions, go to... go to the Great Love Group and find Minister 'Pangolin'."

Pangolin, the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi!

For the sake of the overall safety of the village.

Mei Terumi did not invite Yagura Karatachi to the Five Kage Summit this time.

Yagura Karatachi didn't want the Five Kage Summit to disrupt the daily operations of the Kirigakure Daiai-gumi...

"Yes, Lord Mizukage."

The old master's aged eyes shifted from Terumi Mei to the two attendants beside her.

"Qing, maintain open communication with the village;

"Juzo, protect the Mizukage well."

Green, loquat ten treasures.
