At the same time, inside Sunagakure...
A strange, murderous aura permeated the Kazekage's office.
A figure like an iron tower stood before the floor-to-ceiling windows, making the atmosphere in the room even more oppressive.
"Baki, you said you received a message from Ebizō, that Pakura, that traitor, actually wants to return to Sunagakure?" Rasa's expression darkened, and he said sternly.
The ninja who were gathered in the office were all elites of Sunagakure.
For them, Pakura was like a hero during the Third Shinobi World War.
However, she shed blood and sweat for the village, only to be kept in the dark.
For the so-called safety of the village, she was betrayed by her most trusted comrades.
This kind of feeling could not be described with words.
"Why aren't you talking?" Rasa suddenly turned around, his gaze sweeping over the field coldly, and said sternly, "Do you think my decision that day was wrong?"
"We wanted to reconcile with Kirigakure, could we not pay a small price?"
The aggressive words, made the expressions of everyone in the field suddenly change.
"Yes, we can pay some price, why can't you be the one to pay the price!" A stern voice suddenly rang out, immediately tightening everyone's nerves.
Speaking recklessly at this critical moment, was undoubtedly like crashing into the muzzle of a gun.
Hurriedly following the sound, the figure that first entered their eyes, made everyone's expression slightly change.
"Karura, do you know what you're saying?" Rasa's expression darkened, and he said sternly, "Don't forget, you are my fiancée!"
"So what?" Karura said urgently, "I was blind at the time, to have taken a fancy to you..."
"You!" Rasa was suddenly speechless.
However, before he could flare up, Baki quickly stepped forward to persuade, "Fourth Kazekage, please calm down."
While speaking, Baki gave Yashamaru a wink, signaling him to persuade Karura, and then said, "Karura and Pakura were classmates who graduated in the same year, their relationship is relatively deep, so they misunderstood the Kazekage-sama's good intentions, and are only a little nervous for a while."
"What we need to do first, is how to handle Pakura's matter."
Saying this, Baki backhanded and took out a scroll, saying, "This is the intelligence scroll that Advisor Ebizō sent back."
"Not long ago, he and Pakura, encountered the Konoha rogue ninja Orochimaru, and Hiruko's attack, the other party coveted Pakura's bloodline limit, at the critical moment, it was Uchiha Kai who took action to rescue them."
"According to what is said on the scroll, Kai did not return with Pakura, but is suspected of giving Pakura a so-called scroll for help, so we must treat Pakura's matter seriously."
The somewhat deep words, made the expressions of everyone in the large office change slightly.
If it was said that the most sensitive topic right now, for the five great nations, was no longer a simple war.
But rather, this Konoha rogue ninja, who had betrayed and left the ninja village, the Crimson Ashura Uchiha Kai.
Three days later, a Five Kage Summit to deal with Uchiha Kai would be held in Konohagakure.
It could be said, that any decision now, would potentially affect the resolution of the Five Kage Summit.
For a time, everyone's gazes, turned in unison, locking onto Rasa's body.
"Hmph, Baki, you are bringing up this matter in this situation, are you planning to make me turn a blind eye to Pakura's return?" Rasa snorted coldly, meeting Baki's gaze.
"You should be very clear, that sending Pakura out was a decision made by the high-level of Sunagakure, it was starting from the interests of our Sunagakure, in the eyes of others, Pakura is still sacrificing herself as a heroic figure."
"However, if she comes back this time, and exposes everything, not even wanting the so-called heroic mask, then not only will I be disgraced, but what kind of impact it will have on the upper and lower levels of Sunagakure, you should be very clear."
The awe-inspiring words, made the expressions of the people in the field slightly change.
Rasa's words, seemed very selfish, but they involved the important interests of Sunagakure.
After all, the high-level of Sunagakure, kept Pakura in the dark, but for external propaganda, it was said that Pakura, for the sake of the ninja village, had voluntarily sacrificed herself to become the ultimate hero.
If it was exposed in public, that this was a play directed and acted by Sunagakure.
Then it would probably chill the hearts of the entire Sunagakure.
"Hmph, you now know the importance of the matter, right!" Rasa snorted coldly, saying, "What we have to do now, is to absolutely not let her step into Sunagakure even half a step."
"You must remember, Pakura's current identity is a rogue ninja, not a hero anymore!"
This!
Karura opened her red lips, and was suddenly speechless.
Looking at Baki and the others shaking their heads, she clearly knew.
As long as they were a member of Sunagakure, it was very easy to distinguish between personal feelings and the interests of the ninja village.
Looking at the silent crowd, Rasa snorted coldly, saying, "Since everyone has no objections, pass down the order, at the entrance of Sunagakure, intercept the rogue ninja Pakura, and kill her if necessary."
"As for, Uchiha Kai, now that the Five Kage Summit is about to be held, if he really intends to reconcile, then he should clearly know, what things he can manage, and what things he cannot manage, what's more, this is Sunagakure, his hand cannot reach this place, and he is not allowed to extend it here."
Kill?
Karura's expression turned pale, and her knees softened, if it wasn't for Yashamaru's timely support, she would have probably fallen to the ground.
However, with Rasa's order falling, the entire Sunagakure quickly went on alert.
The matter of the rogue ninja Pakura, returning to the village, even spread throughout the entire Sunagakure, giving a feeling of striking first to gain the upper hand.
On the city wall, an aged figure, stood like an iron tower.
A sound of air breaking came from the side, and soon saw a puppet crow falling on the back of her hand.
"Go tell Ebizō, let him make his own decisions, if Pakura returns, what awaits her may be a fatal disaster!"
Caw!
The puppet crow squawked, and then flapped its wings and flew high.
When the crow disappeared at the end of the sky, Chiyo fell into silence, looking back at the new statue not far away.
This was the hero statue that the people in the village built for Pakura, after she was sent to Kirigakure as a hero not long ago.
Later, it was revealed that Pakura was colluding with the Konoha rogue ninja, Uchiha Kai.
However, due to recent events, breaking out one after another.
The high-level of Sunagakure did not speak out to express their position, and the question of whether the statue should continue to exist, was gradually left behind.
Right now, why Pakura was returning, even Chiyo could not figure it out.
On her old face like tree bark, a strange reminiscence appeared, and she fell into silence.
