The other Tailed Beast Jinchuriki of Iwagakure Village, Lao Zi, was obviously not present. The original book also seems to have said that the relationship between this Four-tailed Jinchuriki and the Third Tsuchikage Onoki was not harmonious. It was not a personal grudge, but
Differences in ideas may even lead to disputes.
Therefore, this four-tailed Jinchuuriki stays outside the village all year round to travel and practice alone, just like Jiraiya of Konoha. He only returns when the village encounters a crisis or needs to start a war.
In addition, Lao Zi will not abandon anyone in Iwagakure including Onoki.
It was also because of Lao Zi's special identity and super personal power that Ohnoki turned a blind eye to Lao Zi.
After all, no matter what, this is the strongest representative of ‘shadow-level combat power’ in the village!
And from a practical point of view, once a full-scale war breaks out in a ninja village, the tailed beast jinchūriki are much stronger than ordinary kage-level ninjas, especially in terms of large-scale frontal combat capabilities. Generally speaking, there is a difference between them.
They are all very big. To give a very clear example, the Third Raikage in his peak period was worthy of the super shadow level. He could evenly compete with the Eight-Tailed Gyuuki, and he even had the ability to seriously injure the Eight-Tails.
But when it comes to the frontal battlefield.
The role played by the Eight-tailed Gyuuki far exceeds that of the Third Raikage. Taking the previous Ten Thousand Rock Ninjas as an analogy, the destructive power that the Eight-tailed Ushiki can cause is at least four to five times that of the Third Raikage!
This is also the biggest reason why major ninja villages value tailed beasts.
Especially now that all the major ninja villages have entered the "talent decline period" one after another, the tailed beasts, the toughest Kage-level combat power, have become the most important existence.
In addition, Lao Zi's seniority in the village is second only to Ohnoki, and he belongs to the "uncle generation" of Huang Tu and Chi Tu.
Therefore, Lao Zi's degree of freedom is very high. As long as there is no important matter in the village, Ohnoki can almost let Lao Zi do whatever he wants.
Including this time when the Uchiha clan joined Iwagakure Village, Lao Zi didn't care at all. Not only now, but also before, he had never shown up, but getting rid of this old man of Iwagakure Village who was a bit casual
', In this most formal meeting, all the most important mid-level and high-level powerful figures in Iwagakure Village appeared.
Including the powerful person of the upper water clan, Jonin Iwazetsu, who was also sitting in the third position from the left, and several jounin who were in charge of the most important part of the real power in the village, all appeared in front of Shoji and Fugaku.
It also appears in the original work, and Fuga, who is also considered to be the most powerful in the jounin hierarchy, also sits at the bottom.
Then there are two or three senior Iwa-nins who are obviously the oldest in Iwagakure Village at the same time as Ohnoki, who are similar to Konoha Mito Katoin, and Koharu who has transferred to the dormitory. Although these people were at their peak, they were just
An elite jounin reaches the quasi-kage level, but after all, his identity and qualifications are there.
To some extent, they still have a certain say. This is the same in every village. It's just that Konoha is a bit more special. After all, there are really no other 'elders' in other ninja villages who can reach Mito Gate inflammation and change their dormitories.
Koharu, especially Danzo Shimura!
"Lord Tsuchikage!"
"Gentlemen!"
As Shoji stepped forward, Fugaku had already prepared himself mentally.
Take a step forward.
First, he bowed slightly to Onoki, the Third Tsuchikage in the first position, and then turned around and nodded to the 'colleagues' on both sides, regardless of whether these people held the views of the Uchiha clan.
What kind of attitude.
At least for the first time here, the superficial etiquette of the Uchiha clan must not cause any problems, and these people, including the most hostile Kamisui Iwazetsu, all bowed and returned the greeting at the same time, in front of Onoki, the prestigious third-generation Tsuchikage.
noodle.
No matter who has an opinion, you must hold it in here!
"No need to be polite, please sit down first. Shoji-kun and Fugaku-kun. From today on, we are a family. We don't need to be so polite to each other. I'm calling you two here because it's about your family.
Some post-arrangements and some requirements from the village need to be communicated to you in advance."
Onoki's big red nose was slightly raised, but there was still a faint smile on his face, and he spoke in a calm tone.
"yes!"
After Fugaku and Shoji each responded.
He also took a seat directly opposite Ohnoki.
‘Some of the rear arrangements of the clan, do you still have any requirements?’
Although such a conversation was with Shoji, Fugaku expected it, but Onoki's words sounded somewhat profound, and combined with the different expressions of the elite Iwa ninjas on both sides.
Both the general and Fugaku felt a slight shock in their hearts.
Is there really going to be some trouble again? But looking at Ohnoki's appearance, it doesn't seem like there's anything special to be vigilant about?
Fugaku, who couldn't figure out the situation for a while, and Shoji, after sitting down and looking at each other, made up their minds. Every word and every line that follows needs to be more cautious, as long as it doesn't really involve something.
Some bottom line issues.
The Uchiha clan can still accept and agree to some requests, and this is what they should do. As early as when they decided to join Iwagakure Village, Shoji and Fugaku were already mentally prepared accordingly.
"So....."
It's just that although the conversation that followed did shock Shoji and Fugaku to a great extent, the direction it went in was completely different from what they had guessed at the beginning.
Let the two people's expressions switch back and forth between various 'forms' during this 'special meeting'.
Two hours later.
This special conversation finally came to an end.
Although there were no disputes at the meeting, there were too many aspects that needed to be covered, and there were still many details that needed to be reached with a preliminary agreement, so there was no big deal between them.
Even though the dispute could be quickly reached, it still took two hours.
And when the meeting ends.
When Shoji and Fugaku left the Tsuchikage office building after saluting Ohnoki, they each had a very strange look on their faces.
It's not that there were any generals who appeared in this meeting that Fugaku couldn't understand or even accept. It was just that the meeting was too smooth and ordinary, and the expected difficulties did not appear at all.
There are some obligatory requirements made by Onoki on behalf of the village, as well as the benefits that the Uchiha clan may enjoy.
Everything is normal!
This should have been a happy development.
Because for the Uchiha clan, stability and stability are the most important at this stage, and there is nothing more suitable for the current Uchiha clan than the word "ordinary".
But it is precisely because they are the Uchiha clan.
The word "ordinary" seems a little weird and irritating.
