Chapter 137 - Ceasefire... (1/2)
Chapter 137
Title: Ceasefire...
....
When I suggested executing all 3000 of the Kumo ninja. Hiruzen was shocked, and he said. ”No, there will be no need for that. We will be negotiating a deal with Hidden Cloud now... I would like you Yami to be part of it.”
C'mon now old man. When you say the talk, you must also walk the walk. This is why people view you as a weak Hokage.
”Of course Hokage -sama.” I answered. After all, even while thinking all of this I had a calm look in my face. There is no need to aggravate the Hokage. I know that he is already mad at me for killing Danzo, so I don't need to give him another reason to try and undermine. Because unlike Danzo I can't just go to the Land of Fire's Nobles and the Daimyo and 'suggest' to them that I would like the Hokage killed.
But it doesn't really matter anyway, Hiruzen is an old man and in a few years he will step down as the Hokage. By then, not even his clan will have his back after the little stunt he pulled with Danzo's Clan, by uniting both clans under the Sarutobi banner. Hiraishin is truly useful, I have had my clones go back and manage the clan, so even though I am at the battlefield, the Inuzuka Clan can continue advancing. Especially now that all the others are more concerned about the war, I can take advantage of this.
....
Three days later and another three thousand ninja were sent from Konoha.
So now that everything was in place, we set off, with me and the Hokage leading our army.
....
After some time we got all of our army to move to the borders of the Land of Frost and the Land of Hot Water. There we were, meeting with another one thousand soldiers, all of them having the headbands of the Hidden Cloud Village. Signifying their allegiance, and in the midst of them all... I saw it... the man who one made me so scared that I had to literally use every trick in the book to even be able to run away from him... The Third Raikage...
....
-3rd Raikage POV-
Seeing the face of that pushover Hokage was a pleasant sight, since it means that at least my sons haven't been killed or tortured to insanity... yet that is... I have no doubt that if Yami Inuzuka was the Hokage, Konoha would be a really scary existence to all the other Villages. Thankfully he isn't Hokage and he never will be, because Konoha isn't rational enough to get leaders like Yami, the Hokage are mostly chosen by the Nobles or the people of power... what do they even know of how a ninja village should be run or anything like that. They simply choose the one who seems nicest and who can talk good enough to convince them... Konoha has a lot of resources but it can't use any of them well enough to make them something special. Currently the only thing they have going for them is their high population inside Konoha.
Also another reason why Yami Inuzuka won't be Hokage is because... I will kill him within one month. This time I will make sure to go all out and plaster his brains, and be done with the brat. I give the signal for my army to stop, and so does the Konoha's Army.
They come for the meeting, and only I go forward. From the opposite side, comes the Hokage and the brat, Yami Inuzuka.
We all intensely meet up in the middle, our armies ready to tear at each other's throats. We all looked at each other with serious looks on our faces.
None of us said anything for a couple seconds, I was the one to break the silence as I asked. ”Where are my sons?”
