Chapter 239 Minato: Give Me Some Face

"You brat, you're being too presumptuous."

Facing the surging yellow sand, Raikage A showed no fear, unleashing his Lightning Release chakra and charging straight into the sand.

In the blink of an eye, the yellow sand did nothing to stop Raikage's attack.

"Gaara, watch out!"

Seeing the Raikage's menacing approach, Temari unfurled her Three Star Fan, and Kankuro also took out his puppet. The two stood before Gaara, attempting to block the Raikage.

"Get out of here."

Unfortunately, neither Temari nor Kankuro were a match for the Raikage.

With just a punch and a kick, Raikage sent the two people blocking his way flying.

At this moment, Gaara stood still, seemingly stunned.

"Kid, pay the price for your arrogance."

Raikage A roared and raised his fist, which was filled with lightning chakra, to attack Gaara's face.

In that instant, a wall of sand made of yellow sand suddenly appeared in front of the Raikage.

"Bang!"

The powerful attack struck the sand wall, producing a dull thud.

Gaara thus blocked Raikage A's attack.

"Not bad, kid. Looks like you do have some skill. How about this?"

If Raikage A just wanted to teach Gaara a lesson and make him understand that the adult world is cruel, unlike a child like him playing house.

After his attack was thwarted, Raikage A slightly toned down his contempt and officially began to regard Gaara as his opponent.

"Whoosh~"

Just as Raikage A was about to continue his attack on Gaara, a golden figure flashed in front of Raikage A.

"Hey, how about we start the meeting first?"

"Minato, are you going to stop me?"

The person who suddenly appeared in front of Ai was none other than Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage of Konoha.

The reason Minato didn't call A the Raikage was that he wanted to use the friendship they had built during the Third Shinobi World War to try and persuade him.

After all, this is the place where the Five Kage Summit is held. Even if we don't give face to the host country, the Land of Iron, we should at least consider the Kage of the other three great ninja villages, right?

Ai knew this, so he didn't have any objections to Minato's attempt to mediate.

However, in order to maintain his authority as the Raikage, he still managed to deliver a verbal sparring remark to Gaara.

"Kid, I'll let you go this time for the sake of the Fourth Hokage."

Gaara remained expressionless in response to Raikage A's remarks, simply replying, "Is that so?"

Then he gestured for Raikage A to turn around and look behind him.

"Um?"

It would have been better if I hadn't looked at it; as soon as I did, Raikage Ai became popular again.

Because behind him, Darui and Hii had already been wrapped up in Gaara's sand.

Judging from the runes appearing on the surface of the sand, he had actually used a sealing technique.

Gaara could kill those two in an instant if he wanted to.

"You brats, let them go!"

After saying that, Raikage A unleashed his Lightning Release chakra for the second time.

If it weren't for the safety of his own hands, he would have really wanted to punch Gaara to death.

"Lord Fifth Kazekage, could you please let this matter drop for my sake?"

Minato is also mentally exhausted.

I just managed to calm Raikage A down, and now Gaara is causing trouble again.

Minato only hoped that Gaara would give him face because he was Naruto's father.

Otherwise, this Five Shadows Summit might become a joke.

"Can."

Gaara nodded, agreeing to Minato's mediation, and immediately released Darui and Hii.

"Phew~"

"Ha~"

As soon as they were freed, the two began to breathe heavily.

"Darui, Shi, are you two alright?"

Raikage A gave Gaara a deep look before walking up to Darui and Hii.

"Boss, we're fine, it's just too stuffy in the sand."

"Yes, it's so stuffy that it's hard to even breathe."

Seeing that the two were indeed alright, Lei Yingai snorted coldly and sat back down in his seat.

Gaara, seeing that Raikage A had stopped causing trouble, inquired about Temari and Kankuro's situation and, upon receiving confirmation that they were alright, took his seat in the Sunagakure area.

This work was compiled and uploaded by [author's name].

Once things had calmed down, Mifune, who was in charge of chairing the meeting, began to fulfill his duties as chair.

"Ahem. Now that everyone has arrived, I hereby declare the Five Kage Summit officially open."

Although it was said to have started, none of the five Kage spoke first.

Neither Sunagakure nor Konoha was in a hurry.

The ones in a hurry are Cloud Hidden, Rock Hidden, and Mist Hidden.

Of these three ninja villages, Kumogakure is the most urgent.

Who told them to have their village destroyed by the Akatsuki?

If we're talking about who hates the Akatsuki the most, then it has to be the Hidden Cloud Village.

"Tsuchikage and Mizukage, since neither of you is saying anything, I'll speak first."

As expected, Raikage A was the first to lose his composure and spoke up, "I propose that the five great ninja villages form an elite ninja force together to deal with the Akatsuki."

Upon hearing this, the Tsuchikage Onoki immediately replied, "There's no problem with forming a ninja unit together. The problem is, who will lead this unit?"

On the matter of dealing with the Akatsuki, Iwagakure and Kumogakure share the same stance.

However, Onoki had no intention of relinquishing his leadership of the unit.

He can't trust anyone else.

"The Five Kage Summit was proposed by our Kumogakure, and I was the one who suggested forming the ninja force. Therefore, the leadership of this force should rightfully belong to our Kumogakure."

Upon hearing this, Onoki sneered and said, "In that case, you Kumogakure can play by yourselves. We Iwagakure won't keep you company."

After saying that, Onoki called Akatsuchi and Kurotsuchi to leave.

Upon seeing this, Mifune immediately jumped out and said to Onoki, "Lord Tsuchikage, please don't act rashly."

"I'm not acting on impulse. Given the current situation in Kumogakure, they are indeed not suitable to lead this force."

Everyone present, except for those from the Hidden Cloud Village, nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

The Hidden Cloud Village of today is nothing like the Hidden Cloud Village of the past.

After being hit by Pain's Super Shinra Tensei, his overall strength has dropped to the bottom of the five great ninja villages.

Even during the reign of the Third Raikage, when Kumogakure was at its peak, Onoki didn't submit to them, let alone the now weakest Kumogakure.

Similarly, Sunagakure and Kirigakure's Onoki didn't take them seriously either.

The only place he could be wary of was Konoha.

"Heh, I think it's you, Onoki, who wants to take control of this unit. Yes, that's right, you're just that kind of power-hungry person."

Raikage Ai knew that Kumogakure had no way of gaining leadership of this force.

However, if he can't lead, then Onoki shouldn't even think about leading either.

Ai is determined to ruin this whole thing for Onoki no matter what.
