Konoha: Otsutsuki from the Earth

The day after meeting with the Great Toad Sage, Qi Fei said goodbye to Mt. Miaomu and returned to Konoha Village because there was nothing else to do.

During the time that Qi Fei left, Kakashi and the others were still conducting combat drills against Nagato. When Qi Fei started sparring with them again, he found that even he felt a little troublesome.

In this way, except for a few people who knew the inside story and were tense at all times, preparing to deal with Akatsuki's attack, most people spent a peaceful and peaceful week, until a letter from afar caused a slight ripple.

In the Hokage's office, Qi Fei, Kakashi and Shikaku were all informed by the ANBU to gather here.

Although Tsunade did not explain the reason for the gathering, everyone thought that this meeting should be related to the Akatsuki organization after seeing the candidates.

Since Jiraiya, who was originally responsible for the Akatsuki organization's intelligence processing, was away, Kakashi was arranged by Tsunade as the new intelligence handler.

Qi Fei was assigned as a tactical advisor because he had fought against members of the Akatsuki organization many times. Basically, Qi Fei had dealt with all the Akatsuki organization members Konoha encountered.

Shikaku was originally one of Hokage's think tanks.

"Today the village received news from the Hidden Cloud Village." Tsunade sat on a chair, frowning and said solemnly, "The Eight-Tails of the Hidden Cloud Village was captured by members of the Akatsuki organization."

Kakashi wondered: "Who is the member of the Akatsuki organization...? Payne?"

"Is it Sasuke?" Qi Fei suddenly said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the three people present except Qi Fei looked at Qi Fei with doubtful expressions, making him feel a little embarrassed.

"I just think in the worst way..." Qi Fei explained.

Kakashi said speechlessly: "No matter what, this is too..."

"Don't worry, it has nothing to do with Sasuke." Tsunade replied, "It was Deidara and Pain who attacked Kumogakure and took away the Eight-Tails this time."

This time it was Qi Fei's turn to be surprised. He remembered that in the original work, it was Sasuke who led the Eagle Squad to hunt the Eight-Tails in order to vote for the title. Even if there was no Eagle Squad, why did the staff become Pain and Deidara?

Just when he was surprised, Tsunade continued to describe the content of the letter: "According to the description of Yunyin Village, Deidara of the Akatsuki organization attracted firepower in Yunyin Village, while the three Pain quietly captured

The Jinchuriki Rabbi of the Eight-Tails is gone."

"Three Pain...Does that mean Pain's strength has not fully recovered yet?"

As a member of the future beheading team targeting Nagato, Kakashi keenly captured the information contained in the letter.

Tsunade replied: "Yes. And according to our own intelligence, Raikage himself captured Deidara himself. But in the end Deidara chose to self-destruct, and the huge explosion directly destroyed one third of Kumogakure Village.

architecture."

At this time, Shikaku said: "I remember Deidara is the rebellious nin of Iwagakure Village. Originally, Kumogakure Village and Iwagakure Village didn't like each other, and now they are even more incompatible."

After hearing Shikaku's analysis, Tsunade nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, according to our own internal information, the Raikage is now preparing to settle accounts with Onoki of Iwagakure Village.

"And this letter sent by Kumogakure Village is mainly to convene other ninja villages for the Five Kage Talks, with the purpose of preparing to deal with the Akatsuki organization that is lurking in secret."

Shikaku analyzed: "I think the Hidden Cloud Village wants to rescue the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki as soon as possible, but there is no information about the Akatsuki organization, so they have to join forces with other ninja villages."

"That's right, and their reasons are very good." Tsunade agreed, "We have previously sent the Akatsuki organization's ultimate goal of collecting tailed beasts to other villages, asking them to protect their own Jinchūriki and tailed beasts.

"Currently, Kumogakure Village is focusing on 'discussing how to deal with the Akatsuki organization that is about to gather all the tailed beasts'."

Kakashi couldn't help but complain: "Really, if I had known this, why did I do it in the first place?"

"Now the only tailed beasts that have not been captured by the Akatsuki organization are the nine tails in Naruto." Tsunade said, "No matter what, the Leaf Village must participate in this meeting and unite the power of other ninja villages.

Protect Naruto's safety."

Shikaku agreed: "Indeed, even if the village does not participate, in order to obtain information about the Akatsuki organization, other ninja villages will set their sights on Konoha and Naruto."

Kakashi suggested: "For the sake of Naruto's safety, should we let him stay on Mt. Miaomu temporarily, which is an area that the Akatsuki organization cannot reach."

After hearing Kakashi's suggestion, Tsunade turned her attention to Qi Fei and asked, "How is the situation over there with Naruto?"

"Based on what I saw last time, it will take at least half a month for Naruto to master Sage Mode... and now there should be at least a week left."

"One week is not enough. A round trip to the Five Shadows Conference will take more than a week."

Tsunade thought for a moment and then said: "When Jiraiya comes back in the evening, I will tell him about the situation and ask him to keep an eye on Naruto, at least until we come back."

Today is different from the past. After understanding the combat power of the Akatsuki organization, Tsunade will not allow Naruto to face the powerful Akatsuki organization alone.

After discussing how to deal with Naruto, Tsunade continued: "This meeting of the five shadows is arranged in the neutral Iron Country. Each shadow can only bring two guards to participate."

"It doesn't sound like there's anything wrong with it. It's just that the guard, Hokage-sama, has already been chosen?" Shikaku asked.

The Iron Country is located in the center of the Five Great Ninja Villages, so it is indeed a good place for the Five Kage Talks. The guards are also arranged according to tradition and are quite regular. The only regret is that this is not a talk led by Konoha.

"Well, the escorts I am going to the Five Shadows Conference with this time are Kakashi and Qi Fei." Tsunade looked at Kakashi and Qi Fei and replied.

"Okay, very stable." Shikaku nodded in agreement. Although he had already speculated, if it is this lineup, there is no need to worry about Naruto's safety.

As the parties involved, Kakashi and Qi Fei also had no objections.

Kakashi, who has clearly become the next Hokage successor, knows that this is Tsunade's training for him.

Qi Fei, on the other hand, simply wanted to get to know the other four shadows and take a look at the legendary "water shadow" and "leg shadow".

Moreover, he already knew from the Great Toad Sage that "Four Wars" were inevitable, so he planned to see if Obito would announce "the start of war" at the Five Kage Conference.

If, like the original work, Sasuke and Obito appear at the Five Kage Conference, Qi Fei will directly pack them away.

"Now there is one last question." After seeing that Tsunade had no other arrangements, Shikaku said, "Hokage-sama, Kakashi, Qi Fei and you high-level combat forces leave, what if the empty village is attacked?

?”

Faced with Shikaku's question, Tsunade replied: "I have considered this.

"In terms of combat power, I will ask Jiraiya to leave the communication means. As soon as the village is attacked, you will immediately notify Jiraiya to return to the village for support.

"In terms of affairs, Shizune is responsible for daily affairs. Once the village encounters an emergency, you and Shizune will jointly direct the village to respond. I will compile the specific arrangements into a document."

Because Shizune has been by Tsunade's side all year round, she has a clear understanding of the village's affairs. Tsunade can rest assured that she will handle the village's political affairs on Tsunade's behalf.

Shikaku is more familiar with the village's combat arrangements, so when the village encounters an emergency, Shikaku can help Shizune get twice the result with half the effort.

"No problem." Shikaku accepted Tsunade's arrangement.

In this way, after receiving the letter from Kumoyin Village, Konoha Village began to deal with the arrangements related to the Five Kage Talks.
