Qingshi did not directly agree to the conditions proposed by Tobirama.
Because in his opinion, the conditions proposed by Tobirama exceeded his authority.
This is not something he can decide on.
However, Qingshi also felt that what Mifune said made some sense.
Tobirama did not embarrass Qingshi and asked him to give him an answer.
Instead, I gave him a phone bug.
And told him how to contact himself using something like a phone bug.
Two days later…
Qingshi returned to Yanyin Village alone.
The elders in the village and the lords of the Earth Kingdom rushed to the Tsuchikage office after learning the news of Qingshi's return.
"How is it? Qingshi?"
The first person to speak was Elder Chiyan.
As the first person to propose the idea of surrender, he knew best that if the current Iwagakure Village went to war with Konoha Hidden Village, it would undoubtedly be an egg against a stone.
No chance of winning at all.
Although he is the elder of Yanyin Village, he does not want the young people in the village to fight a war that has no suspense.
Although the other elders and daimyo remained silent, in their hearts they were eager to hear the good news.
Even though they felt a sense of frustration from Qingshi's body.
Qingshi stood there with a subtle mood.
Before returning to Iwagakure Village, he stayed in the Kingdom of Iron for two days specifically to adjust his mentality.
However……
This kind of thing is not something he can subjectively improve.
"Feel sorry."
After a long silence, Qingshi slowly spoke.
Then he stated the conditions proposed by Tobirama in detail.
Not only that, but also the attitude of representatives from the Iron Country and other small countries.
He also spoke out.
Unlike Iwagakure, these small countries believe that they do not have the ability to compete with big countries.
Coupled with the conditions offered by Tobirama, it was exactly what they lacked.
They were happy to accept each other's conditions and submit to Konoha.
At the same time, this also means that once the Iwagakure and Konoha Hidden Village go to war, they will not have any allies.
"Yeah."
Chiyan patiently listened to Qingshi’s story.
In fact, when Qingshi came back, he thought of the answer from Qingshi's emotions.
If Tobirama could accept their conditions, Qingshi wouldn't be so frustrated.
but……
Chiyan was different from others in that he had no expectations from the beginning.
The reason is also very simple.
If he were the Hokage of Konoha, he would not be able to accept the conditions proposed by Iwagakure Village.
After all, everyone knows the difference in strength between the two villages.
Know yourself.
The Hidden Leaf Village is equally clear.
In addition, during the time Qingshi went to the Kingdom of Iron, he also learned about the situation in the Kingdom of Wind.
Knowing that Sand Hidden Village had fallen, the daimyo of the Wind Country did not have the courage to go to war with Konoha.
He simply surrendered to Konoha.
In other words, the current Fire Country owns all the territories of the three great kingdoms of fire, wind, and thunder.
The Kingdom of Rain, which is slightly more powerful among the small countries, also surrendered to the other party early.
Plus these small countries.
Today's Konoha can be said to be a behemoth that occupies the entire ninja continent.
The Kingdom of Earth where they were located was suddenly under attack.
despair.
Unprecedented despair spreads in everyone's heart.
The whole office fell silent.
Everyone, look at me, and I'll look at you.
I don't know how much time passed before the Daimyo of the Earth Country slowly spoke.
No matter how you say it, he is a daimyo and the most powerful person in the Earth Kingdom.
He is the person who least wants to see his country reduced to a city in the Land of Fire.
"The Kingdom of Water."
"If we join forces with the Kingdom of Water, maybe we can fight against Konoha."
However, even this daimyo didn't have much confidence in his words.
"I'm afraid not." Elder Chiyan said without thinking.
He shook his head and explained to everyone.
"The Kingdom of Water is surrounded by the sea, and the country is shrouded in thick fog all year round."
"In order to prevent the invasion of other countries, they created various traps in the thick fog."
"It's very difficult for outsiders to get in."
"and……"
"As long as Konoha Hokage is not a fool, he will find a way to cut off all routes to the Kingdom of Water."
"We can't contact each other."
Chiyan paused for a moment and continued, "And even if we take ten thousand steps back, even if we send people to the Kingdom of Water and have peace talks with the other party."
"A consensus was reached."
"The ninja troops sent by the Kingdom of Water cannot cross the land of the Kingdom of Thunder."
It has to be said that Elder Chiyan's words immediately made everyone present feel chilled.
"The current situation in Kirigakure Village is that it is probably difficult to protect itself."
After hearing Elder Chiyan's analysis, Qingshi couldn't help but add something.
He took a deep breath and said, "The Kirigakure Village has collaborated with the Cloud Hidden Village in the past."
"As a result, in that battle, not only hundreds of elite jounin were lost, but even the fourth Mizukage was killed by Zephyr."
"In the battle of Hidden Sand Village some time ago, they brutally killed a wave of ninjas. Even the Fifth Mizukage was killed."
"I'm afraid there are only chuunin and genin left in Kirigakure Village now."
"No……"
As he spoke, Qingshi couldn't help but shake his head, "I'm afraid there are not many chunin left in Kirigakure Village."
As soon as Qingshi finished speaking.
The room fell silent again.
Everyone looked at each other.
As long as you think about it for a moment, you can understand why Kirigakure Village can't count on it.
"Is there really no other way?"
"We can only watch the country fall?"
The daimyo broke the silence again, his eyes full of anxiety.
He knew very well that his Daimyo Group was doing well economically.
The military is not strong at all.
All military capabilities are in the hands of Iwagakure.
If Iwagakure chooses to give up, then nothing he says will be of any use.
"I'm afraid so."
Qingshi sighed helplessly, "The Hokage of Konoha is crazier than we imagined."
"He reincarnated and resurrected all the previous Hokages using dirty soil."
"Once the war begins, we will face all enemies from the first Hokage to the fifth Hokage and Kaze."
"Hokage is undoubtedly a warrior whose strength surpasses tens of thousands of ninjas."
Qingshi's voice stopped abruptly.
Although he doesn't really want to boost other people's ambitions.
but……
With his knowledge of Naruto.
The other party probably doesn't need to send any ninja troops. Those five people alone can drive straight in.
"Reincarnation in the dirt?"
"The Fifth Hokage used dirt to reincarnate?"
Elder Chiyan's eyes were wider than a cow's eyes.
He even wondered if he had heard something wrong.
Isn't the Earth Reincarnation a forbidden technique in Konoha?
Why is Zephyr used?
But soon, he understood.
yes.
This time, Zefeng is determined to unify the ninja world, something that has never been done before or will be done in the future.
He would naturally be able to use forbidden techniques such as the Reincarnation of Evil Land.
Moreover, Elder Chiyan also thought of a very terrible thing.
That is……
The bodies of the shadows from other villages were in Konoha's hands.
If Zefeng is really a devil.
Then he can resurrect the shadows of other villages.
Use them as your own weapons.
Gulu.
Thinking of this, Elder Chiyan couldn't help but his throat rolled up, and he swallowed with a look of horror.
Other people's experiences are similar.
"Reincarnation from dirty soil, what is that?"
Only the young daimyo looked at the others in confusion, not understanding why their reactions were like this.
"It is a forbidden technique developed by the Second Hokage of Konoha. It can not only resurrect the dead, but also imprison their souls and fight as puppets..."
"During the first great ninja war, the Second Hokage used Earth Reincarnation and developed many terrible tactics using it."
"It is precisely because of this that Konoha was able to win the first ninja war..."
Elder Chiyan couldn't help but explain.
"Then what should we do? Is there really no hope?"
"Damn it, damn Konoha."
"It would be nice if our Jinchuuriki were still here."
The elders discussed each other word by word.
However……
As one of the elders mentioned the jinchūriki.
Elder Chiyan's heart skipped a beat again.
"Jinchūriki..."
"Tailed beast."
His expression seemed to have been struck by a bolt from the blue.
If this elder hadn't suddenly spoken and mentioned the jinchūriki.
He had almost forgotten about this aspect.
even……
Elder Chiyan felt the scene in front of him flip, and he almost fell to the ground.
At the critical moment, it was Qingshi's quick eyes and quick hands who helped Elder Chiyan in time to prevent him from falling.
The others looked at each other.
I don’t know why Elder Chiyan had such a big reaction.
"us……"
"No match for Konoha."
"There's no chance of winning."
"Once a war breaks out, we will definitely be completely wiped out by them."
Elder Chiyan stood firm with the help of Qingshi.
He took a breath and said to the others.
No chance of winning.
Once a war breaks out, it may not be as simple as the young people in the village dying innocently.
If it doesn't work well, I'm afraid the entire village will be razed to the ground by the other party.
Unprecedented despair swept through Elder Chiyan's body.
It caused unreasonable fear in his heart.
Yes.
They have no chance of winning.
"Tailed beast."
"We forgot about the tailed beasts."
I see there are still people who don't understand the seriousness of the problem.
Elder Chiyan slowly explained.
"Today, the Hidden Leaf Village has unified the ninja continent, so where are the tailed beasts now?"
"I am afraid……"
"It's all in Konoha, in the hands of Zephyr."
After Elder Chiyan made this matter clear.
All the elders present felt their hearts pounding.
Yes.
They all ignored this.
The tailed beasts that were originally scattered around the world are now in Konoha's hands.
Konoha already has the most powerful Kyuubi.
After devouring the Land of Thunder, they deserved the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails.
One tail is in Sand Hidden Village, and now it is also in Konoha's hands.
The Jinchūriki of his own village disappeared.
I'm afraid it was also Konoha's fault.
The three tails were left behind in the ninja world.
It's not difficult to find Konoha and capture him.
Vulpix was also captured by the Akatsuki organization.
The Akatsuki organization was destroyed by Konoha.
Just calm down and think about it.
You can realize...
Today's Hidden Leaf Village has all tailed beasts from One-Tail to Nine-Tails.
Plus the past Hokages.
Odds?
Absolutely zero.
Qingshi's face also became as pale as paper.
He finally understood.
Why does Tobirama have such an attitude when facing himself and Xiaoguo?
Yes.
From the beginning, they knew very well how terrifying their strength was.
Facing those small countries, they didn't need to send any ninja troops at all.
Just arrange the tailed beast and launch a tailed beast jade.
Those small countries were just razed to the ground.
No……
Not just those small countries, even Iwagakure Village.
I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand the baptism of the tailed beasts.
"hehe……"
Elder Chiyan smiled helplessly.
"It seems that even if we don't accept Tobirama's conditions, we have no choice but to accept them."
The room fell silent again.
"Is there really no other way?" the daimyo couldn't help but say.
"No……"
Elder Chiyan shook his head on the spot.
"Although I would like to say some encouraging words, but..."
"No."
"There is too much difference in strength."
"It's a world of difference."
"Once the war starts, no ninja in Iwagakure Village will survive."
"It's not even an exaggeration to say that Konoha can negotiate with us and put forward conditions."
"This is already a mercy on their part."
"Otherwise, they can definitely send out the tailed beasts."
"Forcing us to surrender unconditionally."
"Daimyo, unless you really want to see our country in ruins."
Elder Akaiyan met the daimyo's gaze.
The two sides looked at each other.
Although the daimyo wanted to say something, he couldn't say anything.
Although he is not a ninja and has never been on the battlefield.
But he knew the strength of the tailed beast.
At some point, the daimyo fell into silence.
Qingshi seemed to suddenly think of something when he saw such a lonely daimyo.
"correct……"
"Konoha said that if we surrender, we will give preferential treatment to the Daimyo of Earth Country."
"Allowing you to leave behind the wealth you have."
"Enough to keep you fed and clothed for several generations."
Qingshi said softly.
In fact, he is now the same as Elder Chiyan.
Begins to lean towards the capitulationists.
Seeing that the Daimyo still found it difficult to accept, he had no choice but to say such words.
only……
His mood was very subtle.
If you don’t know, whether you can comfort the other person.
But I have to say that Qingshi's words really made the daimyo grasp the last straw.
What he is most worried about is that his status will be affected after the Earth Kingdom surrenders to Konoha.
Although he can no longer be a daimyo, if the other party does not rob him of his wealth.
It’s not that it’s unacceptable.
"All right."
Finally, the daimyo relaxed his tone.
"It's up to you to decide this matter."
"I wouldn't have a problem with it."
However, the Daimyo said so.
On the one hand, I don’t want to make a decision or bear anything.
On the other hand, this is also his most helpless compromise.
Because he doesn't want to die either.
Elder Chiyan heard this and nodded, "In this case, the only way to surrender is to surrender."
"Everything is for the descendants of Iwagakure Village."
