Rebuild the Land of Whirlpools, start with a massive army of the Thirteen Guardian Soldiers.

But the Third and Second Raikage, the Third and Ninth Kazekage, and the Two Scales, 4 Onoki, and 0 Onoki are different. (This last part is a fragment and doesn't translate directly.)

Neither the Land of Whirlpools nor its captains have ever truly existed in the realm of intelligence.

This is the first time I've seen it with my own eyes.

This encounter made them realize that this captain, and the Land of Whirlpools behind him, were no ordinary people!

really……

No wonder the Land of Whirlpools dared to send only one captain for such an important occasion.

They're arrogant, but they have the right to be!

Moreover, I've heard that there are a total of thirteen captain-level figures like this in the Land of Whirlpools!

If this information is true, then I'm afraid...

The landscape of the ninja world is bound to change sooner or later.

Of course, it's not clear what's going on from just a little physical combat.

However, it did make them somewhat more accepting of Kyoraku Shunsui.

But the Third Raikage didn't see it that way; he only felt that he had lost face.

The Raikage of Kumogakure couldn't even defeat a captain from Uzushiogakure?

How can they possibly compete with the Soul King of the Land of Whirlpools?!

A hint of anticipation flashed in Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes.

He secretly hoped that the Land of Lightning and the Land of Whirlpools would fight.

This would not only divert the attention of the Land of Whirlpools, but also allow them to develop their own strength.

The Third Raikage has already humiliated you like this, so don't hold back!

But clearly, the Third Raikage was no fool; he suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice:

"Why isn't your country's King of Spirits attending the Five Kage Summit?! Does he look down on the other four countries?!"

In short, he dragged the other three countries into the mess and used that momentum to put pressure on Kyoraku Shunsui.

Mad, those who can become Shadows are definitely not simple characters!

The others cursed inwardly, but at the same time, they wanted to hear Kyoraku Shunsui's answer.

Kyoraku Shunsui chuckled and said, "Excuse my bluntness, but you gentlemen are merely captains in my Whirlpool Country. How could you possibly be worthy of standing alongside our Spirit King?"

"Arrogant!!"

"Arrogant and disrespectful!!"

Don't make promises you can't keep!!!

In short, he offended three countries.

Only Hiruzen Sarutobi remained silent.

In an instant, the other three figures focused their gazes on Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Everyone's criticizing Kyoraku Shunsui, why are you just sitting there doing nothing?

What can Hiruzen Sarutobi do? He was recently tortured by the Land of Whirlpools, he's not qualified!

However, Kyoraku Shunsui's arrogance immediately provoked public outrage, which was exactly the result he wanted to see.

He even wished that Kyoraku Shunsui would be even more arrogant, so that the other three countries would send troops to Uzu no Kuni!

Just as the atmosphere became tense, Mifune Nyudo spoke up: "Everyone, now that everyone is here, let's get down to business!"

If this drags on any longer, the venue fee that the Raikage paid won't be enough!

The Third Raikage snorted coldly, but did not continue to make trouble, and took the opportunity to back down.

After all, he knew the true purpose of holding the Five Shadows Conference.

Since this concerns the life and death of the Land of Lightning, we should try to be patient as much as possible.

Once this is over, we'll get our revenge sooner or later!

The two Scales, Onoki and the Third Kazekage, remained silent.

The Third Kazekage did not want to create a powerful enemy by antagonizing the Land of Whirlpools, as the Sand Village was currently at war with the Leaf Village.

Onoki, who is two-year-old, is prone to back strain from even the slightest strenuous activity.

Avoid taking action if possible.

Soon, the Five Shadows Conference proceeded in an eerie atmosphere.

Onoki, the two-day scale, spoke up: "Alright, Raikage, please state the purpose of this meeting."

He no longer wanted to waste time; he was getting old and it wasn't suitable for him to travel far.

The Third Raikage glanced at everyone and then said, "The main purpose of this meeting is to discuss the newly emerging creatures in the ninja world: Hollows!"

Speaking of the void, the Third Raikage subconsciously glanced at Kyoraku Shunsui.

He has always believed that the Hollow and the Land of Whirlpools are related.

Whether it's space-time ninjutsu or the ability to unleash the ninja sword, it's all very similar to the Land of Whirlpools.

Moreover, the Land of Whirlpools is said to be irreconcilably opposed to the Void.

But if they didn't have something to hide, why would the Land of Whirlpools attack Hollows?

Perhaps these Hollows were created through some inhumane experiments conducted by the Land of Whirlpools.

However, the Land of Whirlpools did not acknowledge it, and he had no evidence, so the matter could only be dropped.

"Xu?"

This word made everyone except Kyoraku Shunsui and Ise Nanao pause for a moment.

It was as if no one had expected that the Third Raikage would convene the Five Kage Summit so solemnly for something like this.

Even if Hollow suddenly appears and you destroy the Land of Grass, it's not worth their attention.

The Third Raikage immediately saw what they were thinking and said, "You must not underestimate them!"

"Those ordinary Hollows are fine, but there are also humanoid Hollows with intelligence among them!"

"This kind of Hollow can even contend with Tailed Beasts!!"

"what?!"

"impossible!"

"Raikage, if you keep making jokes like this, then there's no point in continuing this meeting."

The Third Kazekage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and the two Scales of the Seven Heavens, almost instantly refuted the Third Raikage's words.

Are you kidding me? How could there possibly be anyone in this world capable of wrestling with a Tailed Beast?!

Since the deaths of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, there have been very few people who have been able to control the Tailed Beasts.

The Third Raikage did not get angry or embarrassed by their denial.

He probably wouldn't have believed it if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.

Fortunately, a machine called a video recorder has recently appeared in the ninja world. The intelligence department studied it and found it to be very useful for recording intelligence footage.

So I bought one.

It finally came in handy when Hollows invaded the Land of Lightning.

“Brubi”.

At the Third Raikage's command, Brubi lifted a machine onto the conference room table.

And a screen was hung in front of the video recorder.

They were all familiar with video recorders, so they understood what the Third Raikage meant.

Soon, scenes from the Land of Lightning appeared.

The group watched intently.

The Third Raikage didn't hold back either; since he was inviting several major powers to jointly attack Hollows, sharing intelligence was inevitable.

When the scene shifted to Grimmjow capturing the Two-Tails, the expressions on their faces finally turned serious.

Upon seeing Yammy wrestling with the Eight-Tails, their hearts sank.

"It's actually true..."

The Third Kazekage spoke first.

How could such a creature, comparable to a tailed beast, exist in this world?!

Onoki, the two-day Libra, had a somber expression, seemingly lost in thought.

Hiruzen Sarutobi remained silent, seemingly processing the facts of the matter.

Orochimaru's eyes lit up; he seemed quite interested in this creature called a Hollow.

Kyoraku Shunsui continued to sip his sake lazily, seemingly uninterested in the images on the video recorder.
