Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

"I can sue you for defamation. You defamed me!"

Uchiha Gin, who had been thinking of sharing the same suffering with the two black laborers, turned dark-faced in an instant after hearing what the First Raikage said, and was almost about to point his finger at them and curse.
Uchiha Gin has always been a man of integrity, so how could he go to a place like that to listen to music!

"Isn't it true?"

Seeing Uchiha Gin's angry look, the First Raikage stroked his mustache, turned his head and looked at the Second Raikage behind him, and asked in a low voice,

"Xiao Ai, didn't you ask about that guest yesterday? Did you find out anything?"

"It doesn't look like Mr. Yin. I heard from the mama-san that the customer was a bald man with a hideous face and tattoos."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it was our misunderstanding. I apologize to you here."

The First Raikage realized that he had wronged Uchiha Gin and immediately apologized with an apologetic look on his face.

"You two don't know me, so it's normal for you to have this kind of misunderstanding."

In view of Hei Laoda's good attitude of admitting his mistake, Uchiha Gin waved his hand, indicating that he was not a petty person, but he had already taken a small note in his heart.

"I wonder what you are doing so early, Brother Yin?"

The First Raikage, holding his waist, looked at Uchiha Gin, who was dressed in formal attire, with some curiosity. When they met yesterday, the other party was dressed so casually.

"Oh~ I need to have a meeting early. You know, I am just a civil servant after all."

In order to avoid being misunderstood by passers-by, Uchiha Gin straightened his back firmly, feeling the dull pain in his waist, and answered with a serious face,
"A meeting? But in the Hokage building?"

"That's natural."

After hearing Uchiha Gin's answer, the two Kurokages looked at each other in tacit understanding. Then the First Raikage took a few steps closer, lowered his voice with a mysterious look, and asked,
"Brother Yin, do you have any inside information?"

The First Raikage recalled the attitude of the security team captain towards Uchiha Gintoki yesterday. It was obvious that the identity of this brother Gintoki was not simple.
Even if he was not a high-ranking official in Konoha, he was still an Uchiha ninja of a certain status, so he wanted to get some inside information about the Five Kage Summit from him.

"Inside information? About what?"

"Tsk~ I wonder if Brother Gin has heard anything about the Five Kage Summit?"

With the mentality of giving it a try, the First Raikage asked quietly,

"Ah, this. Do you know?"

Unexpectedly, the First Raikage wanted to know some inside information of the meeting in advance. Uchiha Gin raised his eyebrows, his eyes rolled around, and he showed a hint of embarrassment, while one hand was making some kind of gesture to Hei Lao Da in a subtle way.

"Oh oh oh!"

The First Raikage understood what was going on and naturally knew this well. He quickly took out a wad of Fire Country currency of considerable value from his bosom and quietly put it into Uchiha Gin's hand.
"Brother Yin, this is a little gift. Take it and have some tea."

"Ahem, these are all our Konoha's secrets. It's really inconvenient to disclose them."

Seeing that Uchiha Gin's expression relaxed a little, the First Raikage did not waste any time and took out another stack of currency from his arms and stuffed it into Uchiha Gin's other hand. Seeing that the price was right, Uchiha Gin changed the subject and said the word "tailed beast".

".The information about those tailed beasts!"

Upon hearing this, the First Raikage's eyes immediately lit up. Konoha was really going to distribute the tailed beasts. It seemed that what Hashirama Senju said in the letter was true.

The First Raikage was very excited. He looked at Uchiha Gin who stuffed the money into his arms. He looked around and made sure that no one was eavesdropping. He asked again,
"Brother Gin, can you tell me the details of the tailed beast?"

"Tsk, Brother Ai, aren't you trying to make things difficult for me?"

Uchiha Gin frowned. The price the other party offered was only worth the information fee just now. Could it be that he wanted to get it for free?

"Um, wait a minute."

From Uchiha Gin's skillful movements just now, the First Raikage could tell at a glance that this curly-haired man was a repeat offender. He immediately turned around and stretched out his big hand to the depressed Second Raikage.

"Xiao Ai, take out the activity funds. I remember giving them all to you before we set off."

"Ah? Lord Ai, weren't all the funds spent last night?"

The Second Raikage was bewildered. When they were drinking wine and washing their feet last night, the First Raikage had directly forcibly collected the activity funds, and he had already spent all the money.

"Stop talking nonsense. Do you have the receipt? How are we going to report it when we get back? Take it out right away!"

The first Raikage, with a slightly gloomy expression, looked at the confused Second Raikage with a threatening look.

"Oh, I see. Wait a moment."

As the second-generation Raikage who was the best at interpreting things under the first-generation Raikage, the reason why he was able to firmly sit on the position of Raikage candidate was inseparable from his flexible ability to handle things. After being reminded, he had to reluctantly take out his own small treasury and handed it to the first-generation Raikage with tears in his eyes.

That was the money he was going to use to wash his feet!
"Don't worry, I won't take it for nothing. I'll go through the intelligence fee process when I get back and give you double the amount."

The first Raikage knew how to deal with people. After borrowing money, he did not choose to abandon the donkey after it had served its purpose. Instead, he patted his chest and made some promises.

"Brother Yin, sorry to have kept you waiting~"

Quickly stuffing the Second Raikage's small treasury into Uchiha Gin's hands, the First Raikage said with a smile,
"I don't know which tailed beast"

"Huh~ Brother Ai, I can't reveal much, but there is one thing I can tell you secretly. This is exclusive information. Apart from the Hokage, I am probably the only one who knows this."

After weighing the money in his hand, Uchiha Gin nodded secretly, and then his tone lost its previous stiffness and became very warm.

"what news?"

The First Raikage did not expect to have such an unexpected gain. He was overjoyed and felt that his money was not wasted as he could get the inside information that only the First Hokage knew.

"Brother Ai, after testing by our Konoha's authoritative experts, we found that the tailed beasts also have different strengths. The strongest tailed beast in Konoha has eight tails, and one tail can be as strong as three."

He quietly revealed the news to the First Raikage. Seeing the other party's ecstatic look, Uchiha Gin smiled with satisfaction.

I am a trustworthy information dealer.
"Thank you, Brother Yin. We will reward you handsomely later!"

The First Raikage was so moved that he clasped his hands together. He didn't expect that he would meet such a good person in a foreign country. He almost couldn't hold back the tears.

"No, no, this is what I should do."

Just don't offer me a reward afterwards.
Just like that, the three of them walked into the Hokage building together after chatting happily. The guard let them in after simply confirming the identity of the first Raikage.
"Eh? Brother Yin, why are you going up there too?"

Originally thought that Uchiha Gin would stop at the meeting room on the lower floors, but unexpectedly he moved with them to the staircase on the top floor, which made the First Raikage a little confused.

"On the way~"

Uchiha Gin didn't explain, but simply smiled.
"Master Ai, something is wrong. There are no more floors above us?"

The Second Raikage noticed the problem and looked at Uchiha Gin who was leisurely behind him. He reminded him quietly,
"Maybe it's Brother Yin who should come up and move the stool~"

The first Raikage, who also had doubts, had to comfort himself with a very reasonable explanation.

Just when the two were full of suspicion, a man with long black hair, wearing a red Hokage robe, stood at the door of the conference room not far away. He had a very hearty smile on his handsome face. After seeing the Raikage and the others, he laughed and waved to greet them.

"Welcome welcome~"

"Hokage-sama?"

Putting aside the previous doubts in his mind, the First Raikage looked at the man in front of him who exuded a sunny aura, and frowned instantly.
"Exactly. Judging from your skin color, you two should be friends from the Hidden Cloud Village, right?"

"The first Raikage, Ai."

Sensing the terrifying aura emanating from Hashirama Senju's body, the First Raikage broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead. However, as the head of a village, how could he lose face? He straightened his face and slowly said his name.

After saying this, the First Raikage opened his eyes wide and stared at Hashirama Senju in front of him, fearing that his aura would be inferior to his. In his opinion, although Hashirama Senju's aura was superior to his,
But ninja battles rely on an endless variety of tactics. It's not possible that someone can rely on just one trick to be successful everywhere, right?

The unique escape techniques of their country of thunder are all extremely lethal thunder escape techniques. They will never be weaker than those of the same level, and there is also a chance to kill opponents of higher levels.

"Please come in, the shadows of the other major nations are already in place, waiting for you."

Due to the excessive consumption last night, the Raikage and his companion took some time on the road and became the last country to enter.

Looking at the two black laborers with unsteady steps in confusion, Senju Hashirama found that there were no scars on their bodies, which meant they were not attacked, but why were their breaths so weak? Could it be that they had eaten something bad?
Just when he was puzzled, he saw Uchiha Gin following not far behind the Raikage. Senju Hashirama's eyes immediately lit up, his helper had finally arrived!

You should know that when the figures of the other major countries came just now, they were followed by a brave little brother.

Tobirama and Madara went to the tailed beasts to check out the situation and wait for the major nations to come and inspect the goods. After all, it was his first time to attend an international conference, and Senju Hashirama was a little nervous. There was no one around him, which made him inevitably feel a little scared.

Senju Hashirama, who felt confident, walked towards Uchiha Gin with a smile on his face.

The two Raikages who were secretly on guard against Hashirama Senju noticed that the other party was walking towards them at a faster pace. They were both nervous and subconsciously formed hand seals.
However, to their surprise, Hashirama Senju walked right past them and walked towards Uchiha Gin who was looking relaxed behind him.
"Brother Yin, you are finally here!"

As the two stared in amazement, the first Hokage, who was at the pinnacle of Konoha's power and had created the one village, one country system, actually showed a respectful expression, even with a slightly flattering attitude, and enthusiastically took Uchiha Gin's hand.

"Hey~ This is not to give you face, I found all the dresses that I only wore once, and put them together, so as not to embarrass Konoha~" Since Hashirama's brother gave him face, Uchiha Gin certainly couldn't embarrass him,

"Brother Yin, you."

Looking at the two familiar people, the first Raikage, who had recovered from a brief shock, pointed at Uchiha Gin in silence. Even though he thought he was both wise and brave, he did not expect that this ordinary Uchiha was actually a big shot that even the Hokage had to give way to.

"Hey, brother Ai, I'm mainly worried that these mundane things will destroy the pure friendship between us, and..."

Seeing the first Raikage looked like he had seen a ghost, Uchiha Gin immediately shook his head and explained. At the end, he winked at the other party implicitly, meaning that I, as a brother, have done a good job. I even gave you the inside information~
"Haha. That's right. Given our relationship, there's no need to say more."

After this reminder, the first Raikage woke up as if from a dream, his black old face wrinkled into a chrysanthemum, and he repeatedly said yes.

"Brother Yin, I will definitely treat you to a good foot wash tonight!"

"Oh, how can this be so embarrassing~"

Senju Hashirama, who was standing by, also slowly came to his senses after listening for a while, and then looked at Uchiha Gin who was talking eloquently with a complicated look.
I didn’t expect that Brother Gin actually became friends with the Raikage. His charisma is so terrifying.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Senju Hashirama interrupted the conversation with a smile.

"Let's put the pleasantries aside until after the meeting. Everyone, please enter first and the meeting will begin immediately."

conference room
The spacious space was filled with the smell of gunpowder. Uchiha Gin stuck his head out and saw two old men playing the staring game. One of them was the Mizukage Byakuren, whom he had met yesterday.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

Senju Hashirama, who was with the Raikage and the other two, smiled and broke the solemn atmosphere in the conference room. The six pairs of eyes present instantly shifted to the belated Raikage.
"As expected of you, you are the Raikage. You are so arrogant that you made me wait here for such a long time."

Shi He, who had just glared at Bai Lian, narrowed his eyes and said sarcastically,
"Such behavior is indeed unbecoming of a leader."

With his hands crossed under his chin, the first-generation Kazekage Retsuto, who was COSing Commander Ikari, also followed with a somewhat surprised look on his face.
Bai Lian from the Water Kingdom did not say anything. They only saw some shameful deals with the Thunder Kingdom and it was not convenient for them to break up for the time being, so they chose to remain silent.

"Humph!"

It is understandable to be humble in front of Hashirama Senju, but if you show cowardice in front of these guys, they will just think that the Land of Lightning is easy to bully. They immediately snorted coldly, and the sound was like thunder, which made everyone's eardrums vibrate.

"Okay, okay, everyone is here, let's have the meeting~"

Seeing this, Hashirama Senju hurried out to smooth things over. He had finally initiated a meeting, and it couldn't turn into a fight.

"Hokage-sama, are you planning to attend the meeting alone?"

Reito looked at the lonely Senju Hashirama and asked with some confusion,

"No, there is also Yin'e. Brother Yin, where are you?"

This Fengying must have stayed in the Kingdom of Wind for too long and has developed sand eyes. He can’t even see a big man like Brother Yin.

"You you are, Mr. Silver!"

Just as Hashirama Senju was looking around for Uchiha Gin's trace, Reito, who was asking the question, heard a sudden voice from the monk behind him. The voice was not as firm as usual, but trembling with excitement, which startled him and made him turn his head.

"Hey~ Brother Shamenlao, long time no see~"

Looking at Shamon whom he had not seen for many years, Uchiha Gin greeted him with a smile. Compared with when he first met him, the other party's face had a more resolute look.
"Mr. Yin, why are you here?"

Having never thought that he would meet Uchiha Gin again in such an occasion, Shamon, who had become the second-in-command of the Sand Village, had a look of joy at the long-awaited reunion but more of surprise on his face.

"Hey, didn't I tell you that my hometown is in the Land of Fire? It's not normal for me to be here~"

“But this is.”

"Shanmon! You've lost your composure."

Reito frowned, looking at Uchiha Gin who was acting very familiar with Shamon, and reminded him coldly,
"Excuse me Mr. Yin, let's have a good get-together after the meeting is over."

After being glared at by Reito, Shamon instantly became obedient. After whispering something to Uchiha Gin, he returned to his previous cold expression, but the joy in the corners of his eyes was clearly visible.

Understanding the difficulties of Shamon's fellow prisoner, Uchiha Gin said no more and walked along the table towards Senju Hashirama, looking at the mysterious bandaged man curiously along the way. From the strong herbal smell on the other side, he could judge that this guy was injured recently.

"Hi~wig."

When passing by the Water Country camp, Uchiha Gin casually greeted them.
But today, Gui acted a little cold, with his eyes closed, as if he didn't hear Uchiha Gin's call.

Not saying anything, pretending to be an expert?
Uchiha Gin, feeling boring, stood behind Senju Hashirama, replacing the position of Senju Tobirama in the original work.

"I am really grateful that the first five Kage of the five major countries can gather together to hold the Five Kage Summit like this."

Senju Hashirama looked at the people present excitedly. After calming down, he thanked them and prepared to kowtow.
"I am indeed here to ratify the Five Kage Agreement, Hokage-sama, but that doesn't mean I will sign it for nothing. The Water Country won't hold out for much longer."

Seeing that Senju Hashirama was about to start a long speech, Ishikawa was the first to interrupt his speech with a very tough attitude.
Okay, okay, the Land of Earth will choke Hashirama's brother once.

Uchiha Gin silently took note of the little notebook in the back, preparing to give it to his older cousin for review after the meeting.

"It's just a moment of complacency."

Unconvinced, Bai Lian responded coldly,
"Ahem. In that case, I'll get straight to the point."

The interrupted Senju Hashirama looked a little embarrassed. He was about to kowtow to express his gratitude, then he opened the folder in his hand and said loudly,

"I hope that all countries can sign a peace agreement. As a condition for signing, I will distribute the tailed beasts to everyone fairly."

"So, this is a deal?"

After listening to what Hashirama Senju said, Reito pondered for a moment and asked,
Uchiha Gin, who was distracted behind Senju Hashirama, was shocked when Reito's voice sounded. It was his turn to play.

"Yes, the distribution of the tailed beasts will take many factors into consideration, and..."

The Kages present did not expect that Uchiha Gin would answer, and they all looked at him, as if wondering who this man, who had no relevant information, was and how he could accompany the first Hokage to attend this meeting.

Judging from his clothes, he should be an Uchiha, but that curly hair? It doesn't match the appearance of the legendary Uchiha Madara.

Uchiha Gin was used to seeing this kind of gaze, so he didn't feel uncomfortable at all. He had been on the biggest stage before, so he just sprinkled water on this small scene, then narrowed his eyes and looked at the people from the other four countries without any retreat.
"And what?"

"The tailed beasts will not be handed over to you for free. You are required to voluntarily purchase them~"

When they heard that they actually wanted money, the faces of several shadows instantly darkened, especially the Wind Kingdom, which was already poor, and their brows were furrowed like a river. The Earth Kingdom and the Water Kingdom, which were fighting at the same time, also looked gloomy.

On the contrary, the first Raikage, who had predicted the news in advance, had a gleam of brilliance in his eyes. He was determined to obtain the Eight-Tails that Uchiha Gin had mentioned before.

"Brother Yin, a discount is fine~"

Seeing that the scene was a little deserted, Senju Hashirama poked Uchiha Gin beside him and whispered,
"Leave it to me~"

Uchiha Gin gave Senju Hashirama a reassuring look, signaling him not to talk too much and just watch his performance.

The First Kazekage, who knew that he was short of money, was the first to break the silence. He raised his head and spoke slowly,

"Our village has had monks from a certain temple seal a tailed beast since ancient times. We already have one, and we don't need more. If you want us to cooperate and sign an agreement, the conditions cannot be the same as other villages. We need corresponding rewards. Is that okay?"

"what do you want?"

The first Raikage was thinking about how to get the Eight-Tails. When he heard that someone didn't want the tailed beast, he asked in surprise,

"Our country is covered with yellow sand, so we want to ask our neighboring country Konoha for fertile land instead of tailed beasts, and take three percentage points from the funds used by other countries to buy tailed beasts for us."

"You must be kidding! You gloomy man!"

"That's too much, Kazekage!"

As soon as these words came out, Uchiha Gin didn't even need to start scolding, the Kages of other countries had already formed a united front and attacked the ignorant Reito.
"Humph~ If you don't agree to me, I will not sign the agreement. Our country is a desert country and cannot engage in production. When competing with the four major countries, we naturally have to make the most of our village's tailed beasts."

OK, OK, it seems that you are not afraid of wearing shoes when you are barefoot, so you just want to throw it away.
"Our four nations can join forces and swallow up your Wind Kingdom!"

Bai Lian, who had a bad temper, slammed the table and threatened directly.

"No way, no way~ No one really thinks that their tailed beast is the best in the world, right?"

Just when the atmosphere was tense, Uchiha Gin, who had been silent, started to act weird.

"What do you mean?"

Reito, who was at the center of the conversation, heard the teasing in Uchiha Gin's voice and immediately frowned.
"Alas~ You don't even know what the tailed beasts are, yet you're talking nonsense here. You should be thankful that it's not your eldest cousin who's attending the meeting today, otherwise you would have died countless times~"

Uchiha Gin was seen picking his ears and speaking with an expression that looked like he wanted a beating, his words were full of gratitude for Reito.

"Humph! How have you ever seen the power of Shukaku? It is a terrifying beast that can destroy a village in an instant. And according to the monk in the temple, Shukaku has repeatedly claimed that it is the strongest tailed beast." (End of this chapter)
