Chapter 264 - 265 (1/2)
Wind Country.
Sunagakure.
At the moment, the entire village was in a rather tense state. You can see that Shinobi are at least three times more active than usual, and it is almost impossible to find women and children on the streets, all of them have already been sent to a safe place.
In the conference room on the top floor of the Kazekage building.
At the head of the large oval table sat the Fourth Kazekage Rasa, who leaned his elbows on the table, intertwined his fingers, and said in a heavy voice, ” This day has finally come...»
”Konoha continued to actively build up their forces, and no one prevented them from absorbing small countries, and now their eyes, as expected, fell on the great countries, what do you think about this?»
The Shinobi sitting next to Rasa abruptly stood up, slammed his palms down on the table, and ground his teeth: ”Become a part of Konoha? Never!!!»
”Yes!»
”We will never surrender to Konoha!!»
”This is impossible!»
Angry shouts rang out in the conference room.
A few days ago, Konoha mobilized a massive force and sent it to the border, and this morning, Sunu received an ultimatum demanding that it immediately capitulate and become part of Konoha.
Under the proposed agreement, Konoha would grant Suna autonomy for the next ten years.
But Suna will have to send the children to study at the Konoha Shinobi Academy, in addition, there are several conditions regarding the control of order in Sunagakura.
In addition, Suna must help Konoha capture the Land of Wind and assist in its absorption by the Land of Fire.
Such demands cannot be accepted!
Sunagakure is one of the five Great Villages, even after defeats in the Second and Third World Wars of the Shinobi, they did not consider such humiliating treaties!
”Although there is a clause on granting autonomy, but once this treaty is signed, Sunagakure will sooner or later disappear, completely mixing with Konoha, everyone present should understand this, so...Do you have a strategy to fight Konoha?»
The fourth Kazekage Rasa looked at everyone present.
He clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes flashed with inflexibility and hardness.
Yeruashi alone is strong enough to completely overwhelm Sunagakure, making it absolutely impossible for them to face Konoha alone.
”Lord Kazekage, if Konoha starts taking over Wind Country, the other Great Villages will not sit idly by, because after the fall of Wind Country, it will definitely be their turn!»
Jounin Baki stood up and looked firmly at Kazekage, ” Therefore, we must immediately contact Iwagakure, Kirigakure, and Kumogakure to form a unified army as quickly as possible and force Konoha to retreat!»
The Shinobi sitting next to Baki added, ” You're right, they know that very well and they must be waiting for us to make contact. If Konoha wants to provoke the beginning of the Fourth Shinobi World War, we must unite and show that it will not be so easy to win it!»
A discussion immediately broke out in the conference room.
”Ahem, ahem...»
Rasa coughed, instantly making it quiet, and then looked at the village dignitaries gathered here: ”The formation of a unified army is already inevitable, even if we don't take a step forward, they will definitely start communicating with each other. The question now is how we are going to counter Konoha's attack...The enemy has already begun to act, the speed of forming a unified army is definitely not comparable to Konoha.»
After Rasa's words, a heavy atmosphere reigned in the conference room.
After a while, someone gritted his teeth and slammed his fist firmly on the table: ”Let's retreat!!!»
”Without the support of the combined army, we will have no chance to stand against Konoha, so let's disperse our forces before the arrival of Konoha's forces, there is no need to directly face the enemy.»
