Chapter 182 - 182: Why Do I Feel That Every Ninja Village Here Are My Enemy?
Uehara and Terumi Mei left the corner.
After walking to the street the two subconsciously arranged their clothes then subconsciously glanced at each other and the corners of their mouths twitched at the same time.
Uehara finally spoke first: "Hey hey, Terumi Mei, don't make it seem like we have done something shameful!"
"..."
Terumi gritted her teeth bitterly and suddenly smiled: "I'm already a grown-up! Boy, if you want to feel good again just must contact me!"
After speaking, Terumi Mei ignored the gazes of the people around them and wink at Uehara, then turned around walking towards the meeting venue.
Obviously, Terumi Mei really wanted Uehara to contact her.
She wants to have a good talk with Uehara but it is not very convenient here.
Because Mangetsu matter is very important and even related to the future of Kirigakure. After all, that guy took the four Ninja swords and defected to become a spy!
He should leave one at that time!
No, at least two must be left!
In Kirigakure, in addition to Mangetsu's younger brother Shuigetsu, there is also a good seedling that can serve the position of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
Uehara followed Terumi Mei into the meeting place.
After a while, Chiyo of Sunagakure also rushed to the Daimyo Mansion and walked into the meeting place tremblingly.
The leader of Takigakure had arrived early.
Now all the members of the five countries who will participate in the negotiation have arrived.
Uehara looked at everyone present. The three Great Ninja Village seemed to have a bit of grudge with him, and even Takigakure also has some.
After all, Konan once planted a Taki ninja traitor to get the position of the leader of Takigakure to investigate Nanabi's intelligence. It was only because of Konoha's support that he fell short, but it is estimated that the leader Shibuki did not dare to hold grudges.
As for the three Great Ninja Villages, it goes without saying that the leader of these villages was all killed by Uehara.
The Fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure was murdered by him.
The Fourth Mizukage of Kirigakure was murdered by him.
The Third Hokage of Konohagakure was recently murdered by him.
Uehara even admired his boldness a bit.
With so many enemies gathered here, he even dared to come to the meeting.
Thankfully Terumi Mei did not know that he had killed the Fourth Mizukage.
While Tsunade is embarrassed to mention his assassination of Third Hokage. After all, it was involved in Shimura Danzo's plot to seize the position of Naruto.
Once it is said, Konoha will definitely lose face.
Among the participants, Chiyo is the one who hate him the most.
Since the death of the Fourth Kazekage Rasa, Sunagakure has become increasingly poor and started to decline. Uehara who killed the Fourth Kazekage was the perpetrator of the decline of her village.
Chiyo glanced at Uehara who was diagonally at her and closed her palms: "Tsunade-dono, this is an alliance meeting between the Great Ninja Village. I don't think Amegakure is qualified to participate and can't play any role in our next plans..."
"No one can insult our Amegakure!"
Uehara squinted his eyes and said softly: "Hehe, a village where the leaders of the village are killed like dogs. Are they eligible to sit at the same table with us? Our Ame leader is the ninja demigod Hanzo-sama!"
After speaking, Uehara looked at Chiyo again and said: "Hey, old hag, When the Fifth Kazekage of your village succeeded the position. Tell me and I will kill him!"
"What did you say!"
Chiyo's palm flipped and a scroll fell on her palm: "Bastard boy, I will kill you now!"
"Then come!"
Uehara glanced at Chiyo and sneered: "Hehe, your grandson Sasori was beaten by my sensei and beg for mercy. That kid also cried and begged me for the Fourth Kazekage's corpse. What a puppet master he is."
What Uehara said was a bit vicious.
He doesn't know if Sasori will fight him desperately after hearing it.
Anyway, even if Sasori worked hard, he would definitely not be able to beat Uehara.
Tsunade slammed the table and said coldly: "We arrived here for the same goal. This is not a place for quarrels. Only by letting go of our past grievances can we sincerely cooperate."
"Yes."
Terumi Mei stroked her cheek and glanced at Uehara, then gently nodded and said: "We are willing to sit here because we already have the willingness to cooperate, so why care about the brutality left over from past wars?"
The country of fire, water, wind, and rain, after the three Ninja Wars, the number of grievances was hard to count because the numbers were too numerous to count.
Only the leader of Takigakure, Shibuki, was better.
This somewhat immature young man smiled awkwardly and rounded it off: "Yeah, yeah... Hokage-dono and Terumi Mei are right!"
Chiyo and Uehara snorted with each other coldly and turned their heads, but they still followed Tsunade and Terumi's advice and stopped arguing.
Tsunade finally breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
To be honest, Tsunade kind of hates Chiyo.
Obviously, Sunagakure is very weak right now but still took the initiative to provoke Uehara. Is she not afraid that Amegakure will invade her village the next day?
"Okay, let's start talking about business now!"
Tsunade slowly stood up and walked to a wall where a map of Ninja world was hung and whispered: "The main topic today is the distribution of benefits after the destruction of Kusagakure.
About a month ago, Kusagakure was destroyed by powerful fire ninjutsu. We think it might be Konoha's S-class missing-nin Uchiha Obito or Uchiha Itachi. The purpose is to instigate and trigger a new Ninja War.
In order to avoid wars and disputes caused by the territory of the country of grass. We decided to place the country of grass under the jurisdiction of the country of fire and the protection of Konoha.
The Daimyo of the original country has already agreed to be canonized as a noble of the country of fire. "
"..."
Everyone present couldn't help but look at Tsunade.
How thick-skinned this woman is to say that!
In order to avoid wars and disputes over a piece of land, we took that piece of land as our own.
Why are you so shameless!
It is a pity that the country of wind and the country of water is beyond it's reach and the only people present who have objections are the people of the country of waterfall and the country of rain who are close to the country of grass.
The leader of Takigakure, Shibuki, naturally did not dare to say anything.
Uehara raised his palm and spoke softly: "Will the territory of the country of grass be distributed to?"
Tsunade frowned and said in a deep voice: "At this point, Konoha will decide whether to divide it based on merit. As for what to give, you still need to wait for our discussion to finish"
"Please feel free."
Uehara nodded and did not argue for any reason: "If the result is not satisfactory to us, we will neither support nor oppose it."
"Then everyone pease listen to me."
Tsunade did not argue with him and continued to speak: "Konoha has always advocated the balanced development of the Ninja countries. It is for this reason that the First Hokage allocated the bijuu to the major Ninja villages, and allowed the war between Ninja villages to be restrained.
Konoha will be getting the territory of the country of grass this time but in return we will give other countries some benefits to achieve a balance between the big countries. "
Tsunade stood by the table again and lean down while using her hand as support on the table exposing her snow white peak, which made people dizzy.
"Of course this is not so simply given to all countries."
Tsunade looked at the people present and slowly said: "All countries must cooperate in trying to suppress Iwa and force them to give up it's attempt on the country of grass.
Once Iwa retreats and the country of fire and the country of grass are successfully merged, Konoha will reach an economic and political alliance cooperation treaty with Kirigakure to open markets and ports to each other; at the same time, Konoha will return mission from the country of wind to Sunagakure. "
Both Chiyo and Terumi nodded implicitly. The purpose of the two of them was precisely for this, which was what they urgently needed.
Tsunade turned her head to look at the bored Uehara and slowly said: "If Takigakure and Amegakure are willing to contribute, Konoha will not spare the interests of allies..."
"Well, we only hope to have long-term peace."
Shibuki looked at Tsunade and shook his head gently, he said: "Although we and Konoha have been allies for a long time, we are not eligible to participate in this cooperation."
Takigakure is a small ninja village.
So they will not dare offend Konoha nor Iwa.
Shibuki's consideration was also reasonable. Tsunade nodded slightly to agree and then looked at Uehara: "What about Amegakure's side?"
Uehara stood up slowly and walked to the side of the map. He whispered softly: "We need to use the original site of Kusagakure as the demarcation line and all the land to the south of it will be included in the border of the Country of Rain."
"Wishful thinking."
Chiyo couldn't help but shook her head.
"Hahaha…"
Tsunade smirked: "That is more than half of the land, and even the west is mountainous and it is the richest place in the country of grass!"
"Neither Konoha nor the Country of Fire lacks rich land."
Uehara shook his head gently and continued softly: "What Konoha lacks is the strategic key that can form an absolute advantage over Iwa. Obviously, the northern part of Kusagakure is mostly bridges, outposts, and canyons, which are the most suitable for Konoha."
Uehara glanced at Tsunade who was still a bit disdainful and whispered: "If Konoha agrees to this division, Amegakure can launch a raid on Iwa in conjunction with Konoha to wipe out the Iwa Ninja entrench in the country of grass."
"Sorry, Konoha can do it alone."
Tsunade shook her head and turned to look at the people present: "If you agree, please return to your country and start mobilizing manpower to initiate the suppression of Iwa and force them to leave the country of grass!"
Seeing Chiyo and Terumi nodding their heads, Tsunade looked at Uehara again and chuckled softly: "If you want, you might as well take a gamble with me. If you win, I might give it to you."
"Don't shame me anymore."
Uehara waved his hand and turned around to leave the venue, but before leaving he suddenly turned his head to look at Tsunade, he squinted his eyes and smiled slightly.
"We in Amegakure have been tracking down Akatsuki's traitors who have betrayed the Country of Rain and Hanzo-sama.. Those traitors will not easily let go of the opportunity to instigate the war between Konoha and Iwa. Please cherish this peaceful time!"
