The Fourth Raikage put forward this view.

The meaning of Tuqiongdijian is very clear.

"On this matter, we in the Kingdom of Demons also have a say. When the Kingdom of Demons and the Kingdom of Wind fought last year, the Konoha Ninjas also joined in and were defeated together with the Kazekage of Sunagakure. Our side has nothing to do with the Konoha Ninjas.

The quality is also worrying.”

In fact, in the war in the Kingdom of Wind, the performance of the Konoha ninjas was more eye-catching than that of the Sunagakure ninjas.

A Konoha ninja named Matt Dai almost forced Ruri into a desperate situation.

But since the value of himself and the Kingdom of Thunder is to be raised here, then Shiraishi will naturally not recognize the strength of Konoha ninja at this time.

"The strength of a ninja represents the strength of a country's most important military force. The glorious era that belonged to the Land of Fire and Konoha no longer exists. Then, certain changes should be made to the current structure of the ninja world.

Adjustments. For example, the Land of Fire needs to give up the honorary title of the strongest country, and Konoha's title of the strongest ninja village should also give up its title. Now the ninja world urgently needs a more powerful country and ninja village to reset the tone of the ninja world.

The new order. I think it has to be the Kingdom of Thunder and Cloud Hidden Village."

Shiraishi didn't wait for Hiruzen to speak and continued.

"The Land of Fire and Konoha are indeed not as good as before, but I think it is better to take a long-term view on this matter. Besides, this also requires the other daimyo of the big powers and several other Five Kages to make a decision together."

After Hiruzen said this, Shiraishi took out two documents again and said to Hiruzen:

"This is a letter of agreement jointly signed by the Daimyo and Tsuchikage of the Earth Country, as well as the Daimyo and Mizukage of the Water Country. Although none of them came in person, the resolution proposed by our Demon Kingdom has been approved

Their recognition is that the Kingdom of Thunder and Kumogakure can replace the status of the Kingdom of Fire and Konoha. Moreover, they also agree with the proposal of the Kingdom of Oni to become the sixth largest country."

Hiruzen and the others in Konoha were deep in thought, their expressions serious.

I thought I could make things difficult for the Kingdom of Oni and the Kingdom of Thunder, and try to save face for the Country of Fire and Konoha, but I didn't expect that the Kingdom of Oni would be so considerate.

Even if the Fire Country vetoes it, three of the traditional five major countries, including the Thunder Country itself, have already approved such a proposal. Even if they win over the Wind Country, which is excluded by the Ghost Country, they will still be at a disadvantage in terms of votes.

There is no way back.

"This proposal is very good. As the Raikage, I agree with this proposal on behalf of the Kingdom of Thunder. In addition, the Kingdom of Ghosts defeated the Kingdom of Wind on the frontal battlefield last year and has proven that its military power can compare with that of the great powers.

. Therefore, the Kingdom of Ghosts has become the sixth largest country. I think it is feasible and will be officially approved."

The Fourth Raikage said sternly, looking directly at Hiruzen.

With his body locked together by Shiraishi and the Fourth Raikage, Hiruzen, who was alone, felt great pressure.

Just as Shikaku thought, the ambition of the Kingdom of Thunder is clearly revealed.

But the purpose of the Kingdom of Ghosts is probably not to stop at being the sixth largest country, but to conceal a deeper conspiracy by promoting itself to become the sixth largest country.

In this matter, other countries may have been deceived by the Kingdom of Ghosts.

After this meeting, the 'small country' called the Ghost Country officially entered the stage of a great power.

The rift between the five traditional powers has become even deeper.

Hiruzen looked up at Shiraishi's young and energetic face and felt deeply helpless.

The other party is too young.

According to this situation, the other party can still rule in the country of ghosts for at least twenty years.

Twenty years...a length of time that made Hiruzen feel a little creepy.

"On behalf of the Fire Nation... I agree."

In the conference room, Hiruzen seemed to have drained all the energy from his body when he said these words.

◎

The meeting went much smoother than expected.

Shiraishi was quite surprised by the intellectual interests of Konoha and the Land of Fire.

However, even if Hiruzen's side was well hidden, Shiraishi could probably guess the combat strategy of retreating in order to advance with forbearance.

I have to say, this is a very wise choice.

However, I will not give you this kind of stable development opportunity. Shiraishi sneered in his heart.

Because of the decentralization of power at the top of Konoha, the political struggles within Konoha, even from an outsider's perspective, were full of ridiculous meanings.

There are countless handles that can be grasped and gaps that can be exploited.

Although he has a lot of information about Konoha, Shiraishi does not plan to take action against Konoha in the short term.

In order to maximize the intelligence advantage in hand, the best strategy should be to leave room for Konoha to exert its residual heat, wait until Konoha's development has improved to a certain extent, and then use the intelligence advantage in hand to make all the other party's efforts in vain

, once back before liberation.

From a personal point of view, Shiraishi believes that he has been cautious and careful enough in his treatment of Konoha.

After the meeting, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The Kingdom of Thunder and Yunyin returned home with a full load without spending any effort. Naturally, they were the victors.

The Kingdom of Ghosts has improved its international status and officially joined the ranks of major powers. It has also deepened the gap between the traditional five major powers and achieved its political purpose of participating in the talks.

The Country of Fire and Konoha retreated in order to advance, began to show weakness to others, and weakened a certain amount of international influence. They exchanged valuable time from the Country of Ghost and the Country of Thunder to develop themselves with peace of mind. To a certain extent, they also wanted to

The result of benevolence.

The country with the biggest losses should be the Country of Rain.

As the nominal victor, in addition to the country's restoration of independence, the domestic environment has been further severely damaged.

Putting aside the political and military shortages, the economic power used to maintain political and military forces can be said to be an urgent headache for the Rain Country.

Although Naruto Hiruzen, on behalf of the Country of Fire, made a promise to compensate the Country of Rain during the talks, neither the Country of Ghosts nor the Country of Thunder intends to get involved.

The Kingdom of Ghosts, the Kingdom of Thunder, and the Kingdom of Fire have all achieved their political goals of participating in this meeting, and there is no need for tit-for-tat confrontation in the future.

It was proposed by Nara Shikaku, the jounin squad leader of Konoha, that Konoha hopes to purchase projectile bombs for use with flying ninja tools from the Kingdom of Demons. How many can the Kingdom of Demons sell? Konoha expressed its willingness to sell them all

It means to eat.

"Regarding this matter, Kumogakure has taken the lead in reaching an arms sales agreement with the Kingdom of Demons. Even if Konoha has this intention, it should be ranked behind us Kumogakure."

Tudai, Kumogakure's Melting Release ninja, stood up and looked at Shikaku unwilling to be outdone, with a tough attitude.

Shikaku just smiled slightly and said: "With such a huge transaction volume, if Kumogakure eats it all, it would be too ugly. As far as I know, Iwagakure, Kirigakure, and even Sunagakure have strong

Willingness to buy. Although we in Konoha have given up our honor as the strongest ninja village, when it comes to national security, we may not fully comply with Kumogakure's wishes."

Seeing that Shikaku's attitude was equally tough, Dodai could only snort.

Shikaku chose to ignore Tudai's dissatisfaction.

Now that the formal talks are over, the alliance between the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Thunder has collapsed.

Facing two countries at the same time, the Fire Country and Konoha are indeed a bit difficult to support alone, but facing one country alone, he will have enough confidence to deal with it.

In the final analysis, countries will unite because of their interests, and they will also betray their alliances because of their interests.

This kind of thing has long been common among big countries.

Only developing yourself is the last word to gain a foothold in the ninja world.

Placing a country's military power entirely on other countries is definitely a recipe for disaster and ruin for the country.

"Regarding this matter, there is no need to argue between the Todai Ninja and the Shikaku Jōnin. It will take several months for this new type of bomb to be processed in sufficient quantities for export. I can be the first to promise that in half a year, we will

We provide 10,000 pills for each of your families. Whether it is for actual combat or drills, there will be no shortage in a short time."

Shiraishi crossed his hands on the table and smiled calmly.

"Only ten thousand?"

Tutai was a little dissatisfied with this quantity.

"It is impossible for all the manufacturing factories in the Kingdom of Ghosts to be used to produce this kind of bomb."

"Then regarding technical information, can it also be traded?"

"Toutai Ninja was joking. The military has no such plans at the moment."

Shiraishi refused calmly.

With that said, Shiraishi turned his attention to Hiruzen and asked, "Speaking of which, when I was on the road, I met Jiraiya Jonin from your village."

"Jiraiya? What happened to him?"

Hiruzen, who wanted to downplay his own presence, frowned slightly when he heard Shiraishi's words.

"I didn't do anything to Jiraiya, but I think Konoha needs to strengthen the management of ninjas in his village. On the way here, Jiraiya Jonin wanted to dissuade me from canceling this meeting to avoid the fourth meeting.

The Ninja World War broke out. I feel that your village is lacking in educating ninjas, and you need to strengthen the management of the ninjas in your own village. That's all I have to say, and I can't say more about the standpoint of an outsider."

There was an implicit warning in Shiraishi's words.

Hiruzen looked quite embarrassed.

Because of the sudden incident, the decision among their senior leaders was not communicated to Jiraiya in advance, but only gave Jiraiya a standby order.

But he didn't expect Jiraiya to be so reckless and stop Shiraishi on the road.
