"The Fourth Kazekage is dead. His sons, Gaara (the Jinchuriki of Shukaku), Kankuro (the Puppet Master), and Temari (the Wind Princess), are leading a formidable force back to Sunagakure, intending to seize power."
"I've heard that after Gaara seizes power, he intends to lead Sunagakure to join the Land of Whirlpools."
"This matter is likely to cause quite a stir."
Having said that,
The Fire Country Daimyo glanced at the screen and saw the Wind Country Daimyo's frustrated expression and hateful gaze.
He shrank back, opened his folding fan, and used it to cover half of his face.
The other daimyo also frowned slightly upon seeing this.
[I didn't expect this news to be true.]
[So. ]
So, in that case...
It's going to be three against two.
The daimyo of the Land of Water glared at the daimyo of the Land of Wind with annoyance.
This guy.
They actually tried to hide it.
[What time is it?!]
"Alright, then hurry up and agree," the daimyo of the Land of Earth said, somewhat displeased.
"Or is it that none of you care about the words of the Lord of the Land of Whirlpools?"
"But... what about the Allied Shinobi Forces..." The lord of the Land of Lightning rested his chin on his hand, his glasses drooping.
"What if things get complicated after we give ninjas too much power?" the Daimyo of the Land of Water said in a deep voice.
The Daimyo of the Land of Lightning rolled his eyes at him.
[He means, the Allied Shinobi Forces, shouldn't they have someone in charge or something?]
"Don't you trust your own country's ninjas at all?"
"Or do you think that if the ninjas really had this idea, they would have waited until now?"
The daimyo of the Land of Lightning looked at the daimyo of the Land of Water and said...
The daimyo of the Land of Water remained silent.
"First of all..."
"Alright, everyone, it's about time to draw a conclusion."
"In short, for this alliance, I can only contribute the resources of my daimyo's household."
Seeing that the group was about to start arguing, the Fire Country Daimyo immediately intervened, steer the conversation back to the main point.
"The battery is almost dead."
"After all, it's long-distance communication."
"My daimyo's prefecture in the Land of Wind is just like the daimyo's prefecture in the Land of Fire."
The daimyo of the Land of Wind spoke slowly.
"Furthermore, since it's a coalition, let the five of us hold a meeting...with the Land of Iron as our witness."
"The Land of Whirlpools has impure motives, and the Land of Iron will not stand idly by, because their goals also include them."
The words of the Daimyo of the Land of Wind silenced all four of them.
The daimyo of the Land of Fire has stopped causing trouble.
[A moment later.]
The Daimyo of the Land of Lightning coughed lightly, his eyes closed.
"Alright, that's about enough."
"There's no need to waste any more time."
"Let's get to the conclusion."
"The Land of Lightning agrees."
Soon after, the daimyo of the Land of Earth also said, "The Land of Earth, like the Land of Lightning, agrees."
[Then the daimyo of the Land of Earth and the daimyo of the Land of Lightning simultaneously looked at the daimyo of the Land of Water.]
The daimyo of the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind will surely agree.
There's no need to ask.
[I asked, but afterwards there were no issues with their sense of righteousness.]
"The Kingdom of Wind agrees as well."
"The Land of Fire is the same."
Finally, all four of them focused their attention on the daimyo of the Land of Water.
The daimyo of the Land of Water places his hands folded in front of him.
[With eyes closed.]
[He looked somewhat troubled.]
[The Land of Water.]
It was already in a position that was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
In addition.
[The Village Hidden in the Mist, the Land of Blood Mist.]
It just ended not long ago.
This coalition seems quite effective.
In reality, the benefits for the Land of Water are not significant.
On the contrary, the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind benefited greatly.
However, neither of them commented.
He remained silent.
The daimyo of the Land of Fire sighed.
"The five of us made a promise long ago."
"Alright then, from now on... the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind will contribute even more in other areas."
"This will fill the gap in our ninja expertise."
[Only then did the daimyo of the Land of Water's expression soften.]
The Daimyo of the Land of Lightning remained calm.
The same applies to the daimyo of the Land of Earth.
The Land of Earth and the Land of Lightning are constantly embroiled in wars, both large and small.
The two nations' leaders naturally understand each other.
It's really come to that.
[You really thought...heh~]
The daimyo of the Land of Water has many concerns.
The daimyo of the Land of Wind gritted his teeth and said, "That's only right!"
[After a long while.]
[The daimyo of the Land of Water opens his eyes.]
["Understood."]
"The Land of Water also agrees."
"Then, let's begin from now on."
"The five great nations have joined forces to form the Allied Shinobi Forces."
"The Nation of Whirlpools is about to be shattered!"
[Beep—]
The five people nodded.
Then, at the same time, the communication equipment was shut down.
The screen went completely static.
Tobirama Senju: "Heh, you have some brains, but not many."
Uchiha Izuna: Why waste time talking nonsense with them? Let's just get started.
Tobirama Senju: "Naruto with black frames thought the same thing, but wouldn't it be better to have them all together?"
Uchiha Izuna: Sigh~
Uchiha Izuna: Just kidding. If it were up to me, my methods would be ruthless, faster, and more direct.
Tobirama Senju: "My naturally handsome Uchiha brother, Nishi!"
Uchiha Izuna: ? ? ?
Uchiha Izuna: Hahaha~
Uchiha Izuna: The Second Hokage of the Senju clan, born evil!
Tobirama Senju: "..."
Tobirama Senju: "Damn it! I already changed my mind! You bastard!"
Uchiha Izuna: Hehehe~
Uchiha Izuna: The Second Hokage of the Senju clan, born evil!
...
The communication has ended.
The daimyo of the Land of Fire breathed a sigh of relief.
He's not stupid.
No, none of the five of them are fools.
The daimyo of the Land of Fire waved his hand, signaling his servants to leave.
["Thanks for your hard work."]
"Contact Konoha immediately."
["yes!"]
[Watching the servant leave.]
The daimyo of the Land of Fire shook his head.
He rose and, with the help of his servants, removed the daimyo's attire from his body.
["so."]
"We should be able to extract quite a bit from it."
Even if the future... becomes uncontrollable.
"It won't be so bad that it'll be dealt with swiftly and decisively."
[While speaking.]
The daimyo of the Land of Fire looked at the servant beside him.
What happened to the villagers who escaped from Konoha?
"Reporting to the Daimyo, the guardian ninjas have brought the ninjas to the temple."
"The common people were temporarily settled in nearby cities."
The daimyo of the Land of Fire pondered for a moment.
[Waving his hand, he said:]
"Go down."
"Tell them."
"Keep a close eye on those from Konoha."
"If there is any disturbance, we will force them to move in."
"Just kick them out."
"If there is resistance, you may take them as slaves."
["yes!"]
[After the servant carried the lord's robes away.]
The daimyo of the Land of Fire arrived at the window.
Looking at his own daimyo prefecture.
"Let's handle it like this for now; we can't just accept people like that."
"Ignoring everything else, harvesting it would be a waste of food..."
