"If it's about the Ruta Dragon King, he is indeed a very powerful existence, but from a certain perspective... this guy is indeed a strong person who left a deep impression on Kurama." Naruto thought for a while and said.
"Deep impression?" Minato was puzzled.
"Yes, Ruta Dragon King has a human form, and the human form of Ruta Dragon King looks gentle and elegant, completely without the terrifying momentum of the body, so Kurama once..." Naruto explained with a smile.
"Stop talking!"
Nine-Tails interrupted anxiously.
As soon as he entered the Teyvat world, Morax sealed him immediately, and Morax's seal was different from Namikaze Minato's Eight Trigrams Seal. Although the Eight Trigrams Seal could restrict Nine-Tails' actions, it could not prevent Nine-Tails from observing the outside world through the seal, but Morax's seal could do it.
So, after the seal was lifted, Nine-Tails only respected Morax, and when facing other people, his attitude was a bit... arrogant.
And then, he had a very deep impression of the Ruta Dragon King. Since then, the whole fox of Nine-Tails has become much more humble, and his eyes looking at things have also become clear.
On the other side, in the Konohagakure higher-ups' meeting room:
"Sasuke is unwilling to participate in the negotiations?"
Mitokado Homura's brow furrowed, his fist clenched momentarily. He continued, "Why is he unwilling? Is there a specific reason?"
Delegating the diplomatic task to Sasuke was, in essence, passing the buck to him. If Sasuke's behavior during the negotiations led to conflict between Konohagakure and Kumogakure Village or Iwagakure Village, potentially sparking a full-scale shinobi war, Mitokado Homura would have to decide how to handle the situation.
If the advantage lay with them, he'd give Sasuke more time. If the situation was unfavorable, he'd place the blame squarely on Sasuke. After all, once that troublesome fellow met his end, Kumogakure Village and Iwagakure Village would breathe easier, and the war would naturally come to an end.
That was his plan, at least.
Negotiations were no easy matter. If something went wrong during the talks, they'd be held accountable. The reputations of both Hokage advisors in Konohagakure were already tarnished. If further issues arose during negotiations, leading to war, they couldn't be certain of retaining their hold on Konohagakure.
Konohagakure's shinobi weren't fools; they wouldn't continue entrusting power to these two elderly individuals lacking competence. Stripping them of authority was only natural.
Moreover, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu didn't trust Konohagakure's other shinobi. They believed that without their leadership, these individuals couldn't survive. Konohagakure was destined to decline, eventually leading to its demise.
This couldn't be allowed to happen!
"Sasuke said..."
The Anbu repeated his words, his expression grim. He knew Sasuke was right; there was no need for him to assist Konohagakure in these negotiations without any rights or interests.
Meanwhile, within Konohagakure, some enjoyed the privileges of their positions but shirked their corresponding duties. From a different perspective, weren't these Hokage advisors unworthy of their roles? If they couldn't handle diplomacy, why should they remain in these positions?
"Tch, what a hassle. Looks like us old folks will have to shoulder the responsibility." Mitokado Homura sighed deeply, his face showing displeasure.
The Anbu of Konohagakure noticed his behavior. Though they didn't say anything, their opinion of him had diminished further.
What did he mean by "let you bear it"? Wasn't this the responsibility they were supposed to bear from the start? If they didn't want to take responsibility, why were they sitting in those positions?
"Where are they currently positioned? When will they arrive in Konohagakure?" Utatane Koharu asked the recently returned Anbu.
"The Kumogakure Village team is coming quickly. Despite the distance, they'll likely reach Konohagakure in about thirty minutes," one Anbu ninja replied.
"The Iwagakure Village shinobi are closer, and it seems they've already communicated with the Kumogakure Village team. They should also arrive in Konohagakure within thirty minutes," added another tall Anbu ninja.
"Are they arriving simultaneously? This complicates matters even further..."
Mitokado Homura's expression grew even grimmer.
The atmosphere in the meeting room grew increasingly tense. While the two Hokage advisors pondered how to handle the impending envoys from both nations, the Anbu considered whether, had Sasuke been a Hokage advisor, they could stand tall and await the arrival of both delegations.
Before long...
"Boom!"
A deafening roar echoed, and everyone in the meeting room rushed to the windows, gazing out at the world beyond.
Purple, it's purple all over the sky!
The most dazzling place of all the purple is in the direction of Iwagakure Village, but it's quite far away.
"That's the direction of the Iwagakure Village envoy. If we calculate the distance, they are probably there, but why would there be a purple lightning..." an Anbu ninja murmured with a frown.
"Purple lightning? Is it Sasuke? What on earth is he thinking? He wouldn't directly attack those people, would he?" Utatane Koharu thought for a moment, then gasped in surprise, clenching her fist as she spoke.
"Yes, it's too much!"
Mitokado Homura echoed her sentiment.
However... on the other side...
"As expected of Sasuke!"
"He's too powerful!"
"Wow, so this is how he solved it? He's too powerful, I misunderstood."
The Anbu, looking at the purple lightning outside the window, had no worry on their faces at all. In fact, they were somewhat excited and fanatical, just like fanatics seeing their savior.
Unlike the two Hokage advisors, Sasuke's reputation among the Anbu is excellent. Although he is just a Genin, he played a huge role in previous diplomatic missions and showed a very strong attitude and power in many subsequent negotiations.
Although these Anbu can't be sure if they can succeed with Sasuke, if they go on a diplomatic mission with the Hokage advisor, there's a high probability that they will be treated like grandchildren. If they negotiate with Sasuke, their seniority automatically increases by three.
These Anbu believe in Sasuke and Naruto. They know what kind of power these two Genin have in their bodies, and this power is the key to protecting Konohagakure, and it's also the key for a Konohagakure Anbu to stand up straight and speak.
"Boom!!"
The terrifying roar sounded again, the shocking purple light shone twice, and the direction of the Iwagakure Village ninja was hit by a terrifying nuclear strike again. It's estimated that the entire negotiation team was wiped out directly.
Then, the purple light shone again, forming a straight line and rushing towards the direction of the Kumogakure Village ninja.
At this moment, the eyes of the Konohagakure Anbu are full of hope for the future.
