I'm in Konoha, and I started with Ashura Chakra.

"Lord Tsuchikage, something terrible has happened!"

The next day, the Five Kage Summit did not continue, or even began, when a ninja dressed in ninja attire and wearing an Iwagakure headband rushed in from outside the Samurai Castle. Using his senses, he quickly arrived in front of Onoki and knelt down on one knee with a worried expression.

Before he could even report, Onoki, who had had a bad feeling about this yesterday, immediately asked with a grave expression, "Has something happened in the village?"

"Yes, Lord Tsuchikage————"

The Iwa ninja, breathing heavily, said, "The village was attacked by the Akatsuki. They sent six members at once, and all of them had identical eyes. They were incredibly strong and captured Lord Han!"

"They are too strong. No matter if it's Lord Han or all of us combined, we are no match for them."

"All six members have the same eyes!" Huang Tu and Hei Tu's expressions changed slightly as they recalled the information Tsunade had provided them yesterday.

Onoki had also considered this information, and his face darkened as he said, "That damned Akatsuki leader actually took advantage of my absence to launch a sneak attack on Iwagakure!"

At this moment, Onoki finally understood where his ominous premonition came from.

The reason was that he saw Killer Bee standing next to the Fourth Raikage.

Of course, Onoki knew about the AB duo, who had become famous during the Third Shinobi World War.

This duo is now the strongest in Kumogakure.

When Onoki saw the Fourth Raikage bring his younger brother, who was also the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki from Kumogakure, to the Five Kage Summit, he realized something was wrong.

Konoha had already warned them that Akatsuki's target was the nine tailed beasts, yet he left the Five-Tails Jinchuriki in Iwagakure to guard the village, while bringing his son and granddaughter to the Five Kage Summit.

What he considered the safest place, the fortress-like Iwagakure, was, in the eyes of the Akatsuki, an organization that had once stormed into Sunagakure and forcibly captured the Fifth Kazekage, the perfect opportunity.

Sure enough, what happened in Sunagakure has now been repeated in Iwagakure.

Thinking about this, Onoki felt both remorse and anger.

I never imagined that I, who have been using the Akatsuki organization to do things for him all these years, would suffer such a loss!

Originally, he was thinking of taking advantage of the Five Kage Summit to see if he could devise something, or perhaps restrict Yagyu's Onoki and eliminate the Akatsuki organization, but the idea instantly took over his mind.

Just as Tsunade said, this terrorist organization is far too dangerous.

A group, or its leader, can treat the two Great Ninja Villages as nothing, coming and going as they please.

If they were to actually collect all nine tailed beasts, they might really be able to change the current state of the ninja world.

A single major ninja village cannot deal with them; they must join forces to eliminate them.

At this moment, Onoki had made his decision.

At the same time, a warrior in armor approached and respectfully said:

"Lord Tsuchikage, Lord Mifune requests that you proceed to the meeting hall to continue yesterday's talks."

"I understand." Onoki nodded and instructed the Iwa ninja, "You stay here."

"After I finish my meeting, come back with us."

"Yes, Lord Tsuchikage."

Soon, Onoki arrived at the meeting hall with Huangtu and Heitu.

Meanwhile, the other five Kage and three ships, along with their guards, had all arrived.

After Onoki took his seat, Tsunade said with a heavy expression, "Not long ago, we in Konoha received news that the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki of Takigakure had been attacked."

"With the help of Yagyu's Flying Thunder God Technique, the Yamanaka clan assisted Takigakure in reading the memories of the Anbu who protected the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki. The person who killed them was the mastermind behind the Nine-Tails' rampage in Konoha back then, and he was wearing the Akatsuki uniform."

"The current Seven-Tails Jinchuriki has fallen into the hands of the Akatsuki organization."

After saying that, Tsunade continued with a solemn expression: "Judging from the fact that the Akatsuki broke into Sunagakure to capture the Kazekage but did not attack the Jinchuriki and Tailed Beasts who were wandering outside, and then ambushed Yugito Nii of Kumogakure, it seems that the containers used by the Akatsuki to seal the Tailed Beasts must be sealed in a certain order."

.

"If that's the case, then the capture of the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki of Takigakure is absolutely the worst news imaginable."

"Because this means that the Akatsuki organization had already obtained the One-Tailed to the Six-Tailed before this, and now they have obtained the Seven-Tailed."

As the last sentence fell, Tsunade and the other five Kage, and even their guards, all focused their attention on Onoki.

Onoki's face was very grim, but he still nodded and said, "I just received a report from my subordinates that the leader of Akatsuki attacked our Iwagakure and captured Han, who possesses the Five-Tails."

"If it's really going in order, then barring any unforeseen circumstances, Old Purple who's outside has already been captured by the Akatsuki."

Mei Terumi, her face equally grim, said, "If that's the case, then our Kirigakure's rogue ninja, Utakata, who possesses the Six-Tails, may have also been found and captured by the Akatsuki."

"Even the Mizukage's Three-Tails has been obtained by the Akatsuki."

Mei Terumi did not reveal that Yagura Karatachi had been dead for many years, but she deliberately revealed the reason why she succeeded him as the Fifth Mizukage.

Create a false impression so that all five Kage believe that Yagura Karatachi also had his accident around this time, just like Gaara.

The thought that all three villages had been attacked by the Akatsuki, and that two of the Five Kage had been captured by the Akatsuki, weighed heavily on the hearts of the Five Kage, including the Fourth Raikage, and instantly abandoned any thoughts of scheming against each other.

After a moment, Gaara rested his chin on his hands and slowly said, "In other words, of the nine tailed beasts, only the Eight-Tails and the Nine-Tails have not fallen into the hands of the Akatsuki. The other seven tailed beasts have already been obtained by them."

"The simultaneous attacks on Iwagakure and Takigakure indicate that Akatsuki took advantage of our Five Kage Summit to capture several Jinchuriki at once." Tsunade slammed her hands on the table, stood up, glanced at the five Kage, and said in a deep voice, "Based on the information provided by the Kazekage, and our experience in supporting Sunagakure..."

It takes the Akatsuki at least three days and three nights to seal a tailed beast.

"Starting with the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, it would take the Akatsuki at least nine days and nine nights, or even longer, to completely seal the Five-Tails through the Seven-Tails."

"Gentlemen, this is the only and best opportunity. We must put aside our differences and hatred and join forces to completely destroy the Akatsuki."

Upon hearing this, the other five Kage fell silent, still not immediately expressing their opinions.

"I agree with the Hokage's proposal."

Just then, Mifune, who was hosting, raised his hand and said, "The nine tailed beasts were strategic weapons that Lord Hashirama distributed to the major ninja villages to maintain balance in the ninja world."

"Now most of the nine tailed beasts have fallen into the hands of the Akatsuki organization, and they also have the eyes of the legendary Sage of Six Paths. This unbridled style has become a huge threat."

"Such a terrorist organization should not exist, so our Land of Iron has decided to abandon neutrality and instead step in to assist everyone in eliminating the Akatsuki organization free of charge."

After speaking, Mifune glanced at Gaara and the others.

His statement was not intended to pressure the other five Kage, but rather reflected his genuine belief.

They can come and go freely in the three major ninja villages and even captured two of the Five Kage. Such a terrifying organization, even if it has few members, is not something that one or two major ninja villages can deal with.

In addition to these S-rank rogue ninjas, the Akatsuki also possessed special containers that sealed several tailed beasts, as well as the Rinnegan.

If the opponent can control those sealed tailed beasts, they are definitely not something that can be defeated by sheer numbers.

As a warrior with keen intuition, Mifune sensed unease.

If the Akatsuki organization is allowed to continue unchecked, a Fourth Shinobi World War, even more intense than the Second Shinobi World War started by Hanzo, might actually occur.

Moreover, this Shinobi World War might be just like the First Shinobi World War, where none of the five great ninja villages will escape, and it might even affect smaller countries.

Furthermore, given that Akatsuki is a terrorist organization, Mifune decided to abandon neutrality and instead stand up to fight alongside Konoha.

"Sunagakure also agrees."

Seeing that even the Land of Iron, a neutral country, was providing assistance free of charge, Gaara, an ally of Konoha, immediately expressed his support.

Just as Tsunade said, now is the best opportunity.

If they don't wipe them out while the Akatsuki are sealing the Tailed Beasts, they might have to face not only the Akatsuki's many S-rank rogue ninjas, but also the seven Tailed Beasts in the future.

Gaara gets goosebumps just thinking about such high-end combat power.

If they wanted to attack Sunagakure, their sheer numbers would be ineffective, and Sunagakure and even the Land of Wind would perish.

Compared to the Akatsuki organization, Yagyu's potential threat is less important.

Mei Terumi seemed to realize this as well, and raised her hand, saying, "Kirigakure also agrees with the Hokage's proposal. As the saying goes, the minority obeys the majority."

Seeing that three of the Five Great Shinobi Villages were allied, and that the Land of Iron, second only to the Five Great Shinobi Villages, was offering its assistance free of charge, the Fourth Raikage's attitude was no longer as hostile as yesterday. He coldly snorted and said, "The Hidden Cloud Village also agrees to the encirclement and suppression of the Akatsuki, but let me make this clear: if the Hidden Rain Village is successfully wiped out, I will not agree to destroy the Rinnegan and that special container. Then it'll be up to each of us to see who has the most ability!"

"My thoughts are the same as the Raikage's," Onoki said calmly. "Besides, there's not enough time now. There's no need for some formal mobilization. Let's just do what happened back then."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade's expression darkened.

Of course she knew what the incident Onoki was referring to was: the annihilation of the Land of Whirlpools and the extermination of the Whirlpool clan by multiple countries without open cooperation!

"Do whatever you want, just hope you don't regret it later!"

Thinking of this, Tsunade snorted coldly, then picked up her Hokage hat, put it on, and turned to Yagyu, saying, "Yagyu, Sasuke, let's go back!"

"Wait a moment, Hokage."

Mei Terumi stood up, calling out to Tsunade, but actually looking at Yagyu who was walking towards them, and said with a charming smile, "The Hidden Mist Village is not on the Ninja Continent. By the time we return to the Land of Water to gather ninjas to go to the Land of Rain, it may be too late."

"So, could you please give us a ride, Lord Yagyu?"

"Can."

Seeing how much Mei Terumi valued the extermination of the Akatsuki organization, Tsunade's goodwill towards her immediately increased, and she smiled and nodded.

Then, Tsunade said to Yagyu, "Yagyu, take Sasuke and me back first, and then come and take the Mizukage back."

"Yes, Lord Hokage."

Yagyu nodded respectfully, then took out a Flying Thunder God kunai and handed it to Mei Terumi. He placed his hands on Tsunade and Sasuke Uchiha's shoulders, and the three of them disappeared without warning.

A few seconds later, just as Mei Terumi waved to Ao and Chojuro, before the two of them even came over, Yagyu appeared in front of her.

"Wow, that's fast! Is this the fastest ninja in the world?" Mei Terumi exclaimed softly, offering a somewhat ambiguous assessment.

However, Yagyu knew that people in this world wouldn't know such a joke, so he didn't pay much attention. He glanced at Ao and Chojuro, who were walking quickly towards him with wary expressions. Yagyu directly placed his hand on Mei Terumi's bare shoulder in front of them, and then extended his other hand to the two of them, saying, "Come over here."

Ao and Chojuro didn't listen to him, but subconsciously looked at Mei Terumi.

Mei Terumi nodded calmly on the surface, but her heart skipped a beat.

This was the first time she had been touched like this since she grew up.

Feeling the warmth of Yagyu's hand, Mei Terumi felt a strange sensation welling up inside her.

Before she could calm down, the scene before her suddenly changed dramatically.

"Kirigakure is just a few dozen kilometers away. You can walk on your own from here on out. Goodbye."

Yagyu politely left a message, and then, without waiting for Terumi Mei's thanks, his figure vanished without warning.

Mei Terumi snapped out of her daze, looked at the spot where Yagyu had disappeared, and said with a serious expression, "You all heard the conversation at the Five Kage Summit. Now go back immediately and gather all active ninjas, and have the retired ninjas protect the village and prepare for the outbreak of the Fourth Shinobi World War."

"Yes, Lord Mizukage."

Tsunade, who had just returned to the village, gave the same order as Mei Terumi.

After all, among the Five Kage, she was the only one who valued the Akatsuki the most.

After instructing Shizune and Karin to relay her orders, Tsunade summoned the female ANBU members hidden in the darkness of the Hokage Building and ordered them to notify the heads and representatives of the various ninja clans to come to the Hokage Building for a meeting as soon as possible.

With the demise of the Konoha Elders and the four great ninja clans, Konoha has now become a place ruled by Tsunade.

With Yagyu's support, Tsunade became the Daimyo of Konoha.

Even if a real daimyo came, his words wouldn't carry as much weight as Tsunade's in Konoha, and he certainly couldn't command Tsunade.

In terms of combat, the Five Kage can represent the five great nations and decide to encircle and annihilate the Akatsuki organization without even needing to report to the Daimyo.

When the war begins, all they need to do is send ninjas to escort the daimyo to a safe place and assign people to protect them.

"Yagyu, take Hinata with you and use your Wood Clone Technique and Flying Thunder God Technique to keep an eye on the Land of Rain."

Let's see if the Akatsuki have moved their headquarters, or if we can find their current hiding place.

After issuing all the instructions, Tsunade spoke to Yagyu.

"I see."

Liu Sheng nodded and then vanished in an instant.
