It's truly too arrogant!
Uehara Naraku's attitude is nothing like he's here to solve the problem!
Upon hearing Uehara Naraku's words, everyone's brows started to furrow involuntarily. Did this bastard just speak human speech?
Obviously, it was Uehara Naraku who destroyed their village, inflicting heavy casualties on them, and even stole the Tailed Beasts from their village… Yet, from Uehara Naraku's words, it sounds like the big ninja villages are at fault?
Uehara Naraku looked at the shocked crowd, swiftly landed on the ground, tilted his head, and showed a curious expression: "Hmm… Didn't you hear what I said? Left your ears behind when you went out?"
After saying this, Uehara Naraku's eyes suddenly turned a bit sinister, his gaze chillingly swept over the crowd, and his voice suddenly rose considerably: "Or is it… you have forgotten the terror Akatsuki brought upon you!"
With Uehara's words, the surrounding temperature seemed to drop.
No, it's not an illusion, the temperature in the air indeed seemed to drop!
"Bastard!"
The Fourth Raikage clenched his fist, looking grimly at Uehara Naraku, and said through gritted teeth: "Bastard, are you playing us?"
Originally, the Fourth Raikage thought this was a trial against Uehara Naraku and Akatsuki, but unexpectedly, this bastard Uehara Naraku came to provoke them!
This was something the Fourth Raikage could not tolerate!
The Third Tsuchikage's gaze also slightly changed, he straightened his back, his body slowly floated up from the ground, and spoke in a deep voice: "This is quite different from what we imagined. Are you unaware of your situation?"
"I am very much aware."
Uehara Naraku's mouth curved into a deep smile: "But it's been you high and mighty ones who seem truly unaware of your own situation!"
"Uehara Naraku!"
Gaara stepped forward, his eyes gradually showing a trace of vigilance: "We are here with a peaceful attitude to negotiate with you, what do you mean by your current attitude!"
"Negotiate?"
Uehara Naraku's gaze slowly flowed, his mouth curled with a mocking smile: "Only the strong can dictate negotiations. Do you think you have any qualifications to negotiate with me? Based on your easily breakable strength?"
Uehara Naraku's tone shifted, the smile on his face seemed to grow stronger: "It's truly incomprehensible, what gives you the illusion that a strong person who can easily destroy your ninja villages would compromise to you…"
"Uehara brat…"
Tsunade furrowed her brows and interrupted Uehara Naraku. As the organizer of this Five Kage Summit and the host aiming to resolve mutual hatred, she naturally couldn't back down at this moment.
Tsunade looked solemnly at Uehara Naraku and spoke with seriousness: "I invited you to this Five Kage Summit to discuss how to resolve the issues between you, not to create new conflicts…"
"Lady Tsunade."
Uehara Naraku waved his hand, looking seriously at Tsunade: "Has Lady Tsunade not noticed, they don't have any attitude to solve the problem?"
"..."
Everyone was left somewhat speechless.
Do they not have a problem-solving attitude?
It's clearly you who doesn't have a problem-solving attitude!
You just came here, acting all high and mighty, saying they should bow to you and the issue will be resolved, how does it sound like you're the victim?
Tsunade frowned unhappily: "Uehara, but your attitude does not seem like you want to solve the problem…"
"No, I've been quite magnanimous."
Uehara Naraku looked at the crowd, smiled and said: "I just asked them to bow and apologize, but instead of just wanting me to apologize, they even want me to compensate for their so-called losses…"
Uehara Naraku extended a finger, rubbed his brow, and continued in a low voice: "Shouldn't they be thanking me for not killing everyone back then? There's no principle in the Ninja World for winners to pay compensation!"
Terumi Mei walked over, gazing at Uehara Naraku and softly said: "Uehara, you are not the victors. The previous leaders of the Hidden Rain Village and Akatsuki, Nagato, once said Akatsuki would compensate for the wrongs committed…"
"Are you sure you want me to compensate for the errors?"
Uehara Naraku stretched out his hand towards the air.
Just as the crowd's expressions grew tense, thinking Uehara Naraku was about to unleash some Ninjutsu, they saw the Ancient Giant Dragon slowly lowering its head, rubbing the massive horn on its head against Uehara's palm.
This terrifying summoning beast, formidable enough to destroy a ninja village, seemed like a gentle pet under Uehara Naraku's caress.
Uehara Naraku patted the Ancient Giant Dragon's horn, his expression gradually becoming serious: "If you want me to compensate for errors! Then I'll tell you how I'll compensate! I should completely wipe out your village, rather than allowing you to provoke me here!"
Uehara Naraku turned his head, looked at the Ancient Giant Dragon beside him, his eyes revealing a trace of gentleness: "Go! Do what you want! Bring destruction and despair to their village, show them what true apocalypse is!"
"Roar!"
The Ancient Giant Dragon raised its head and roared towards the sky!
The next moment, the Ancient Giant Dragon was about to spread its wings and fly into the sky!
Everyone present couldn't help but change their expressions, the chakra within each person surged violently. Having left their village, the remaining people back there wouldn't have the means to deal with this summoning beast that had rampaged before!
As a war was about to break out, everyone began to gather their chakra, trying to stop the Ancient Giant Dragon first!
Always quiet as Tsunade's guardian, Jiraiya stepped forward, leaping to stand before Uehara Naraku, and spoke in a heavy tone: "Brat, don't be too rash!"
Tsunade hurriedly stretched out her hand, trying to stop Uehara Naraku, and shouted, "Uehara! We are here to solve the problem through negotiation. Don't you want to deal with Orochimaru and reclaim Nagato's body?"
Konan also quickly transformed into sheets of origami appearing beside Uehara Naraku. Seeing the situation, she whispered, "Naraku, didn't you say we were here to solve the problem?"
"...Yes."
Uehara Naraku's body slowly came to a halt.
The next moment, Uehara Naraku waved his hand at the Ancient Giant Dragon, and the dragon stopped its actions, obediently standing in place.
Uehara Naraku glanced at everyone present and slightly nodded, "Alright, for Lady Tsunade's sake, I'll tell you, I came with a sincere intent for peace, not to hear your unrealistic fantasies!"
"Bastard!"
The Fourth Raikage was so angry he wanted to smash Uehara Naraku's head with a punch!
At that moment, he truly wanted to go all out, but his subordinate Darui, after seeing the Third Tsuchikage quietly put down his hand, frowned and blocked his way, thinking that the Fourth Raikage's approach was not very wise.
Now the old guy, the Third Tsuchikage, still wanted to play tricks. Secretly trying to make the Fourth Raikage the impulsive one… indeed, the old man was cunning…
In the past, even the joint force of the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee was effortlessly defeated by Uehara Naraku; thousands of ninja from the Hidden Cloud Village were easily routed by him.
Darui did not think it was a reckless moment for the Fourth Raikage, so he diligently whispered, "Lord Raikage… we do not have the upper hand in this situation."
"..."
The Fourth Raikage clenched his fist, which creaked under the pressure.
The next moment, a few words squeezed out through the Fourth Raikage's teeth, "We're leaving! Do not invite the Hidden Cloud Village for this so-called peace talks in the future!"
"Hey, Fourth Raikage…"
Tsunade's face showed a trace of anxiety.
The Fourth Raikage paused for a moment, then said coldly, "Tsunade, do not deceive us with any talk of peace in the future; this is only because you have saved my subordinates in the past. We are leaving!"
After saying this, the Fourth Raikage prepared to leave without turning back.
Fifth Kazekage Gaara and Fifth Mizukage Terumi Mei remained silent for a moment, then did not make any other moves; they are the closest allies with Konoha.
The Third Tsuchikage's eyes slightly flickered, obviously, the old man Onoki didn't intend to be an impulsive leader either; he wanted to see what would happen after the Fourth Raikage left.
Some people really get more cunning with age.
If the Fourth Raikage leaves and the Five Kage Summit ends without resolution, the Third Tsuchikage would naturally leave as well.
If the meeting involving the Tailed Beasts continues after the Fourth Raikage leaves, the Third Tsuchikage would naturally stay because the Four-tailed and Five-tailed of the Hidden Rock Village must be reclaimed, as they are the foundation of the Hidden Rock Village's strength.
"Hey, wait..."
Tsunade watched as the Fourth Raikage left without stopping, unable to help but turn to look at Uehara Naraku, her face full of anxiety.
"Naraku..."
Konan saw Tsunade's expression, and then glanced at the worried face of Jiraiya beside her, unable to help but also look up at Uehara Naraku.
A hint of complexity flashed through Konan's eyes.
Uehara Naraku leisurely watched the departing figure of the Fourth Raikage, not only refraining from dissuading him but also turning to look at Tsunade.
Uehara Naraku looked at Tsunade, smiled, and suddenly said, "If the Fourth Raikage leaves, it might be because he has colluded with Orochimaru. Lady Tsunade, I suggest including the Hidden Cloud Village as a target in this meeting..."
Tsunade: "..."
What the hell is this bastard saying!
Everyone who heard this couldn't help but change their expressions.
This guy was clearly trying to intimidate the Fourth Raikage! Because none of them left, Uehara Naraku had this chance to threaten the Raikage!
However, the effect was very evident.
Because as Uehara Naraku spoke, the Fourth Raikage couldn't help but stop in his tracks, turning back to curse, "Bastard, Orochimaru is Konoha's rogue ninja and also a member of the Akatsuki before, right! What relation does he have with our Hidden Cloud Village!"
"..."
Uehara Naraku ignored the Fourth Raikage and continued softly talking to Tsunade, "After we retrieve all the Tailed Beasts, we should redistribute the Two-tailed and Eight-tailed; the Hidden Sand Village could get another Tailed Beast, and our Hidden Rain Village should also be eligible for one!"
"Don't even think about it!"
The Fourth Raikage clenched his fists, and his face darkened involuntarily, "The Two-tailed and Eight-tailed can only belong to the strength of the Hidden Cloud Village!"
"Those doomed to become defeated losers have no right to control..."
Uehara Naraku looked at the returning Fourth Raikage and revealed a meaningful smile. Just as he was about to continue saying something that people on the scene would not like...
Tsunade's expression couldn't help but darken, and she hastily waved to stop Uehara Naraku, "Uehara Naraku, can you say a little less!"
"..."
"Alright..."
Uehara Naraku was slightly choked by her words, but it didn't matter since he had already achieved his objective.
