The Five Shadows meeting held on September 27th ended early due to various accidents that day. On the night of the end of the meeting, the Five Shadows who came to participate in the meeting left overnight and returned to the village with their bodyguards and ANBU.

Regarding the alliance, pre-war adjustments began.

Although the meeting lasted only a few hours, the Five Shadows had already had a heated discussion. Although they did not draw up a detailed plan, the general work content was very concise and clear. As for the details, it is necessary to

It can only be completed by holding a Jonin meeting in the village after returning.

At the same time, it was agreed that at the end of this month, they would meet and talk again in the Kingdom of Iron to formulate an implementable strategic plan to deal with the Fifth Ninja War.

As for the other countries paying attention to the Five Shadows Conference, although they still don't know what happened during the talks, they can guess that no matter what was discussed at the talks, the Five Shadows have already made some kind of decision together.

The ninja world will undergo unprecedented drastic changes next.

A war that exceeds the scale of all previous ninja wars is about to come.

For a time, people all over the world were panicked.

Especially small countries that were often within the scope of war zones in the past were even more wary and began to send envoys non-stop to visit big countries. They wanted to know a definite answer and then make arrangements in advance to reduce their country's losses.

Almost when the Five Kages were on their way back, Nagato rushed back to the Land of Rain overnight, and at noon, he landed from the sky at the central tower of the Rain Hidden Village.

Wearing a black coat with red clouds and a vague look of worry on her face, Konan also stayed up all night, waiting for Nagato to return in the tower.

There were many things to consider, so Nagato left the task of relocating the population to Konan.

This period is temporarily in the "peace" stage, and all parties are planning to create famous brands, so there is no point in being sneaky.

"Not necessarily for us, but also for the other five major countries. Although the Kingdom of Ghosts is strong, if it wants to swallow up the other five major countries in one go, it will suffer heavy losses. That man Chiba Shiraishi, even if

Even when he has an absolute advantage, he will choose to work step by step and win with minimal sacrifice. This is his consistent style."

Nagato looked calmly at Kisame, a loyal veteran who had worked diligently for the Akatsuki organization for more than ten years, and said.

"It should be related to some changes at the Five Shadows Conference."

Due to the close geographical location, Tsunade and others returned to Konoha around noon after moving at full speed for more than ten hours.

The jounin meeting will be held at ten o'clock in the morning on the 29th, and there is still time for the jonins of Konoha to prepare.

"What?"

The only option is to defeat them head-on.

Nagato paused and said this.

"What's the matter, Hoshino?"

"Sure enough, they are much more difficult to deal with than other big countries."

"Sasuke-sama."

Unless Shion, the shrine maiden of the Kingdom of Ghosts, is willing to remove Chiba Shiraishi from his leadership position in the military, replace him with a less radical conservative, and forcibly imprison ninjas with dangerous ideas like Chiba Shiraishi... Maybe ghosts

There is still the possibility of easing relations with the five major countries.

In the Hokage's office, after listening to Tsunade narrating the details of the Five Shadows Conference, Shikaku let out a sigh. Even he could not have expected that so many things would happen during the Five Shadows Conference.

The Kingdom of Ghost's military measures to secretly raise supplies and mobilize troops were exposed too timely and completely lost the trust of other major powers.

"I understand. I will go to the River Country to discuss it. By the way, Kisame seems to have something to ask you."

The Country of Rain has experienced this kind of thing many times and will no longer believe in such a boring treaty.

Xiaonan was a little angry, and her voice suddenly dropped.

Due to his outstanding performance, Sasuke has become the leading squadron leader in this area, leading about a hundred ninjas.

Shikaku felt desolate for a moment. The gap between Konoha and the other party made him despair.

What he needs to do now is to collect all kinds of useful information, such as the information about the Kingdom of Ghosts and Akatsuki. He needs to reorganize it and calculate the detailed comparison of the combat power of all parties to make adequate preparations for formulating strategies in the future.

.

Treaties, whether oral or paper agreements, are not binding as long as you intend to violate them.

"uncertain."

At this time, seeing Nagato return unscathed, the worry on her face slightly reduced, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After hearing this, Nagato wanted to use this free time to repair the Six Paths Pain that was seriously damaged in Konoha, but he decided to deal with Kisame first.

This is the affirmative answer given by every cell in the body.

"In the final analysis, in terms of intelligence, the gap between us and the Kingdom of Ghosts is too far... The more information we have, it means that there are more strategies to choose from. Therefore, even if I interfere with this operation of the Kingdom of Ghosts, it will be very difficult.

Develop new strategies quickly to reduce exposure losses."

If the leader of Akatsuki hadn't intervened, the Kingdom of Ghosts would definitely have raided the border between the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Earth at some point in time.

The weight of a tailed beast is definitely not low.

Nagato shook his head and vetoed: "No, it's not just that. Although Chiba Shiraishi adopts a steady advancement strategy most of the time and uses the general trend to oppress the enemy, he occasionally uses some tricks outside the chessboard, thinking

It is difficult to make a surprise attack on the Kingdom of Ghosts. The best way is to defeat it from the front, but this is precisely the most difficult thing to do."

"Yeah, that kid acted too fast, and I didn't expect that Jiraiya's death had a lot to do with him. Even the information about dealing with Pain was deliberately left to Konoha."

There are no fierce large-scale battles here, only frictions between squads, and assassinations that may be encountered at any time and at any time, which have become normal developments in border areas.

Nagato walked along the corridor and nodded.

There has never been a ninja who could make him feel such a strong sense of oppression.

Miaomu Mountain is no longer trustworthy.

"Forget it, let's not mention this matter. Let's focus on the affairs of the alliance. Whether it is the concentration of troops, or the acquisition and deployment of supplies, they are all tasks that must be dealt with seriously next. In addition, after the Jonin meeting tomorrow,

I still have to explain this matter to the daimyo, but it seems I don’t have much time for vacation.”

"Um?"

Kisame hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement.

What's more, given the other person's age, there is still room for further improvement.

"It doesn't matter, I can still hold on. Compared to me, it's really hard on your side. So, Nagato, what was the result of your conversation over there?"

"Don't worry, the matter of population migration has basically been settled. The date for the war will be decided by the Five Shadows. Before that, we need to move the population of the Rain Country to the plains of the River Country as soon as possible to avoid the next war.

It affects them."

Currently, Sasuke has scouted a dozen people in total and is preparing to find time to get closer to them.

Defeating the Kingdom of Ghosts head-on would mean huge sacrifices if this method was adopted.

Shikaku tried to remind Tsunade in a tactful tone.

It was just the loss and pain that affected his heart that made Kisame suddenly hate himself so much.

Not to mention die-hard fans like the Four People and Jugo, Hoshino is currently ranked first among all the candidates who have been scouted since then.

Therefore, Nagato feels that the next work will not be easy, and it is best to be prepared in advance to fight one against two.

Even if there is a one percent chance, the alliance forces headed by the five major countries will definitely be the first to stop it. They will not let outsiders get such dangerous weapons.

"Next, Xiaonan, I'll leave the work of relocating the population to you."

The most suitable time is when the alliance of major powers and the Akatsuki organization are fighting until both sides are injured. The Kingdom of Demons uses his identity as a member of the alliance to make a surprise attack from behind and reap the perfect results.

The only good thing is that the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Alliance of Five Powers have parted ways, and it is even more difficult for them to cooperate.

"Headquarters sent a transfer order asking you to go back."

"From a standpoint, he is a formidable enemy that cannot be taken too seriously."

But he didn't want Xiaonan to worry too much, so he was relieved like this.

Xiaonan thought for a moment and replied.

Nagato stood quietly, waiting for Kisame to make a request.

"leader."

Even the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki, who had fought hard, was nothing more than the light of a grain of rice compared to Nagato in terms of oppression.

Then, Xiaonan thought of something and asked: "So, regarding the people in the Kingdom of Rain, does the other side also agree?"

Kisame nodded and was about to explain.

Moreover, Hoshino was quite outstanding in both his strength and the medical ninjutsu he displayed, which made him very satisfied.

For such a figure whose fame, power and force have reached the pinnacle of the ninja world, it is not an exaggeration to regard her as another 'miko', just a 'miko' who rules the 'human world' in the land of ghosts.

Regarding Nagato's true form, Kisame only has four words to describe it: "unfathomable".

"Moreover, it was Mt. Myoboku's summoning frog who conveyed Jiraiya's information to Konoha at that time... It seems that there was a problem at Mt. Myoboku."

This trust of heavy quality made Kisame feel moved or self-deprecating in his heart.

As a spy, I am accustomed to all kinds of betrayal and darkness, but to have such boring things interfere with my judgment is a real failure.
