Uchiha Makoto walked into the room and saw an old man with a bandage on his head and a long beard sitting on his knees on the mat, with a katana beside him.
He wears green laminated armor, which is basically the same style as Madara who fought against Uchiha Makoto before. It is obvious that he has preserved the tradition of the Warring States Period.
"You must be the Fifth Hokage. I have long admired your name! Please take a seat!"
Seeing Uchiha Makoto walk in, Mifune immediately stood up and spoke with admiration.
In his perception, Uchiha Makoto seemed to be like air, without any breath at all.
After feeling the huge gap, Mifune felt awe-inspiring and his expression became more respectful.
"I have heard of Mifune-dono's Iai-slaying skills for a long time."
Uchiha Makoto said with a smile, and sat down in front of Mifune in a natural manner.
"Hokage-sama was known as the 'Wind Swordsman' in his early years, and now he is revered by the ninja world as the new 'God of the Ninja World'. My swordsmanship is nothing compared to that of Hokage-sama." Mifune said sternly.
When the samurai accompanying him heard this, he looked at Mifune-sama in surprise.
Mifune-sama was complimenting him. It could even be said that he was trying to please Hokage-sama.
If it were an ordinary person, the samurai would not be so surprised, but Mifune-sama always treats everyone equally and will not become flattering or arrogant because of the other person's high or low status.
Even the third-generation Tsuchikage-sama who received Iwagakure yesterday, and the fourth-generation Raikage-sama from Kumogakure, Mifune-sama's behavior was neither humble nor arrogant.
But now he is so cautious.
Is the Hokage in front of me really that powerful?
The Iron Kingdom has always stayed away from wars and never participated in the wars of other countries.
Although they had heard about the final battle of the three wars, they also knew about the so-called Uchiha Madara's attack on Konoha.
But in the eyes of the warriors, these are far away from them.
As long as there are powerful three-ship leaders guarding the Iron Kingdom, even the five major countries will not dare to conflict with them easily.
Years of living without aggression made the samurai feel that they were not much worse than the five major countries.
However, Mifune-sama's attitude at this time made people feel as if they were waking up from a dream, and they couldn't help but feel a little enlightened.
"Takiya!"
Mifune saw that his proud subordinate's eyes were in a daze, and even the tea overflowed from the cup. He couldn't help but darken his face, and reminded him aloud.
"...Huh? Yes! Mifune-sama, I'm sorry, Hokage-sama, I'm rude!"
Takiya noticed his gaffe, looked shocked, and apologized respectfully.
"Hokage-sama, I'm so sorry!" Mifune looked apologetic.
Only Konoha, only the Hokage-sama in front of me, can never be offended.
Mifune had also met the fourth generation Hokage of Konoha, Namikaze Minato. Although the name of the golden flash was powerful in the ninja world, the pressure on Mifune was definitely not as strong as the Uchiha Makoto in front of him.
Even ignoring the rumors from the outside world, Mifune felt that the Fifth Hokage in front of him was very dangerous just from the first impression.
What's more, looking at his past deeds, the fifth generation Hokage is much more difficult to get along with than the fourth generation Hokage.
"It's just a small matter, don't worry about it." Uchiha Makoto smiled and waved his hand.
After the samurai named Takiya retreated, Mifune started talking to Uchiha Makoto.
Uchiha Makoto smiled. He had heard that Mifune was a decent man and had a stubborn character. Now it seemed that he was also a sensible person.
He has been making insinuations about Konoha's next development direction recently.
The Uchiha Makoto family's hot spring hotel chain has long been spread throughout the Fire Country, and now it has developed into other countries.
First of all, the Kingdom of Water is the most numerous, followed by several small countries in the north.
Among them, the Kingdom of Iron is one of the recent targets.
Naturally, Mifune didn't dare to have any objections to just doing business, but he was afraid that Konoha wanted to plant spies within the Iron Kingdom.
It's just that Mifune didn't dare to say anything about this kind of thing.
Although he is stubborn, he is not stupid either.
Kumogakure's strength is so powerful, but the consequences of provoking Konoha are known to the ninja world.
In the current ninja world, only Konoha has the power to destroy any of the other four nations among the five major nations.
Even the Third Tsuchikage Onoki, who has mastered blood-stained elimination, may not be a match for the Fifth Hokage.
After receiving Uchiha Makoto's assurance, Mifune felt relieved and relaxed a little.
The meeting between Uchiha Makoto and Mifune was just a small episode.
Anyway, when the war breaks out, the Iron Country will not be able to stay out of it.
Nagato has already arrived at the Iron Kingdom ahead of time, and is now waiting for tomorrow's meeting.
What no one knows is that.
In space, a middle-aged man with long blue-white hair, pale skin, and lavender eyes rushed towards the ninja world from the moon. He was dressed in white, and his body was gushing green chakra.
...
the next day.
The Five Shadows Conference came as scheduled.
In the high-rise building in the center of the Iron City, there is a long U-shaped table in the center of the conference room hall.
Uchiha Makoto sat in the middle, flanked by Kirigakure's Fourth Mizukage Terumi Yuya and Suna Ninja's Fourth Kazekage Rasa.
After the two, they were Onoki, the third Tsuchikage of Iwagakure, and Ai, the fourth Raikage.
Speaking of which, this was the first time for Uchiha Makoto to see Ohnoki in person.
I remember when he participated in the Kannabi Battle, what he was most afraid of was that there would be an accident in the plot, and Onoki would appear on the battlefield out of the ordinary.
But luckily, Onoki didn't show up.
In that battle, Namikaze Minato's golden shining name truly shocked the ninja world, and Uchiha Makoto, who also shined, also received the title of 'Wind Swordsman'.
After that battle, it was time for Uchiha Makoto to truly rise like a comet.
Today is different from the past. Uchiha Makoto no longer has the same mentality as before.
Now Ohnoki is not taken seriously by him at all.
Although Chen Dun is strong, it still needs to be able to hit the target.
“At the suggestion of Lord Tsuchikage and Lord Raikage.
The current Five Shadows are gathered here. I am Mifune, the leader of the Iron Country, who is in charge of this meeting.
Now, I declare that the Five Shadows Talks have officially begun! "
Mifune sat on the small table opposite Uchiha Makoto and said with a serious face.
As soon as he finished speaking, he nodded towards Uchiha Makoto.
Although this meeting was initiated by the Tsuchikage and Raikage, the only protagonist of the meeting was undoubtedly Uchiha Makoto.
Seeing this situation, the other four Kages either had no objections, or did not dare to have objections, and all waited for Uchiha Makoto to speak.
"Since it was proposed by Lord Tsuchikage and Lord Raikage, let them speak first."
Uchiha Makoto smiled faintly. In his perception, Nagato had already appeared in the Iron Capital.
When he gives the order, he can directly appear on the stage and bring this drama to the climax in one fell swoop.
"In that case, let me make the beginning."
Onoki glanced at Uchiha Makoto, who was in the middle, and his eyes couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
He remembered the first Five Shadows Conference, when he and I were lucky enough to serve as guards and listen on the sidelines.
At that time, he met the man known as the God of Ninja-Senju Hashirama.
Senju Hashirama gave him the feeling of being very powerful, but also very friendly, even a little too friendly.
Facing the other four shadows who were far weaker than him, he showed a low attitude and even wanted to give the tailed beast to other villages for free.
Finally, at the strong request of the Second Hokage, this was a nominal fee.
Tailed beasts are like the ultimate weapon and cannot be measured by money.
But the first Hokage gave it away as he said.
This is due to his own strength.
When Iwagakure formed an alliance with Konoha alone, Onoki encountered the man who had cast a shadow on him for a lifetime, Madara Uchiha on his way to Konoha!
The Uchiha Makoto in front of him gave Ohnoki the feeling that he was not like the first Hokage, but like the second Hokage and Uchiha Madara.
In today's ninja world, there is no other ninja who can rival the God of Ninja.
Although the organization that has recently been collecting tailed beasts from all over the ninja world claims to be the Akatsuki organization, there is no guarantee that Makoto Uchiha will not take this opportunity to bring all the tailed beasts back to Konoha.
"Lord Tsuchikage, please speak."
Mifune raised his hand.
“This Five Kage Conference is held for the sake of the Akatsuki organization, which has been extremely active in the ninja world recently.
Iwagakure's four-tailed and five-tailed jinchūriki were both captured by the Akatsuki organization near the village.
The younger brother of the Fourth Raikage, Rabbi Kiri, the Eight-Tailed Jinchuriki, was also attacked and captured at Cloud Raid Gorge.
And Kirigakure’s Liubi Jinchuuriki Yu Gao! "Ohnoki said in a deep voice.
Click!
A crisp sound attracted everyone's attention.
The one-armed Fourth Raikage clenched his fist tightly with his left hand and pressed it heavily against the table. The wooden table could not withstand his huge force, and fine cracks suddenly appeared on the table.
If he had followed the Fourth Raikage's usual bad temper, he might have gone berserk.
But now that Uchiha Makoto is here, he can only endure.
"Lord Raikage, please restrain yourself and wait until Lord Tsuchikage finishes speaking."
Mifune also knew how the Fourth Raikage felt after Kirabi was captured, so he reminded him softly.
Ohnoki ignored Raikage and continued:
"According to the latest information, the Nanao Jinchurifu of Taki Ninja Village has disappeared, and it is obviously related to the Akatsuki organization."
"As for the tailed beasts that have not been captured by the Akatsuki organization, the only ones left are the one from Suna Ninja Village, and the two, three and nine tails from Konoha."
"Hokage-sama is the Jinchūriki of the Two-Tails, Three-Tails, and Nine-Tails at the same time, so the Akatsuki organization naturally does not dare to act rashly."
"It's just that in the Suna Ninja Village, it's probably difficult to hold onto one. Mr. Kazekage, please forgive me for being so frank."
In the past, Onoki might have ridiculed Rasa, but at this time, two of Iwagakure's jinchūriki were captured, and they were not far from the village, so he was not qualified to criticize others.
"Your Majesty Tsuchikage is serious." Luo Sha clenched his fists tightly with a look of reluctance on his face, and then looked at Uchiha Makoto.
"Today, the only person in the ninja world who has had a direct conflict with the Akatsuki organization and won is the Hokage.
Although the Akatsuki organization may not be able to take away the second, third and nine tails from Konoha, five tailed beasts have now fallen into their hands.
Although I don’t know what their purpose is, they must be punished! "
Onoki nodded and said: "This is also the reason why I invite everyone to come to the Five Shadows Conference.
At the same time, I would like to get some information about the Akatsuki organization from Hokage-sama.
If possible, please share it with us, Hokage-sama.
Of course, our four villages can pay some price when necessary. "
Hearing this, Uchiha Makoto raised his eyebrows. Onoki was really an old fox, deliberately keeping his posture so low.
"Konoha must not sit idly by when the Akatsuki organization behaves like this. It is just information. I am willing to share it with everyone. It was not made public before just to avoid unnecessary panic!" Uchiha Makoto smiled lightly.
"Causing panic? Could it be that with the strength of Hokage-sama, he is still worried about the failure of the Akatsuki organization?" Luo Sha suddenly looked shocked.
In his opinion, Uchiha Makoto possesses three tailed beasts at the same time, and has also opened the eternal Mangekyō Sharingan that only Uchiha Madara has. He even killed Uchiha Madara in front of everyone at the wedding, and his strength is directly matched. The god of ninja, Senju Hashirama, even said that announcing the Akatsuki organization would easily cause panic. Is the Akatsuki organization really so powerful?
"Makoto, what on earth is going on?" Terumi Yuya on the side asked with a solemn expression. Because he was so shocked, he called him by his first name.
Uchiha Makoto said: “As we all know, the Akatsuki organization attacked Konoha on the day of my wedding.
I personally killed Uchiha Madara, the nominal leader of the Akatsuki organization, but the real leader of the Akatsuki organization was more powerful than Uchiha Madara! "
"More powerful than Uchiha Madara?"
"How can this be?"
"Lord Hokage, are you not his opponent?!"
Everyone was in an uproar, and even the shadow guards who were listening on the sidelines also took a breath.
"I only need to say one thing, and everyone will believe what I say!" Uchiha Makoto said slowly: "The other party has the Samsara Eye!"
"Reincarnation Eye?!"
"The reincarnation eye of the Immortal of Six Paths?"
"It's unbelievable!"
"Since the opponent has the Eye of Reincarnation, how did you defeat him?" The Fourth Raikage's eyes were a little desperate at this time. Originally, he had a glimmer of fantasy that he might still be alive, but when he heard that the opponent had the Eye of Reincarnation, he was completely desperate. , his dear brother, will definitely die.
"Because the other party didn't use all their strength!
I have never seen the Six Paths Sage take action, but the opponent's strength is obviously only about the same as the first Hokage in the file.
The other party had no intention of dying with me, so after testing each other with me, he left directly. "Uchiha Makoto said nonsense seriously.
Is it just similar to the first Hokage?
I'm afraid only Uchiha Makoto can say this!
The place suddenly fell into dead silence.
Indeed, if Uchiha Makoto announces this news, it will indeed cause panic in the ninja world.
Even if other villages are on defense, they cannot stop the enemy with the Samsara Eye.
"How to do this?"
The Fourth Kazekage Rasa looked distracted, knowing that the enemy wanted to collect the tailed beasts, and since the opponent had the Rinnegan Eye, there was no way the Suna Ninja Village could stop him!
"Hokage-sama, you...what are you doing?!" Onoki was about to speak, preparing to invite Konoha to deal with the Akatsuki organization, but saw a large amount of orange chakra suddenly spurting out of Uchiha Makoto's body.
Just when everyone thought Uchiha Makoto had evil intentions, they saw Uchiha Makoto punch the ceiling.
The huge fist formed by orange chakra lifted the entire roof directly and flew into the sky.
"Ginlun Reincarnation Explosion!"
At this time, an indifferent voice came from the sky.
A giant tornado struck towards the entire Iron Capital with the power of destroying heaven and earth.
But when he was about to land, he collided with a huge chakra fist.
Huge sonic booms resounded across the sky, terrifying high-pressure shock waves struck in all directions, and the entire cloud layer was stirred up.
"Enemy attack!!!"
The shadow guards all came to their respective shadows to protect them.
"Protect the civilians, I'll deal with the enemy!" Uchiha Makoto's chakra surged and he lifted into the air.
