Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 508 The Power of Discourse

Minato Namikaze has already gone this far.

The Fourth Raikage also knew that if he didn't send a message back today to end the war, he probably wouldn't be able to leave this place unscathed.

Even with the other three Shadows as witnesses.

Even if he was just being hypocritical, sending letters under the guise of sincerity, but in reality allowing the war to continue, and ultimately defeating Konoha.

They may then face a joint attack from the other three major ninja villages, at which point all their scheming will be in vain.

This situation is clearly not what he wanted to see.

The Fourth Raikage, Ai, glanced at the three seated actresses again, his expression changing slightly, before a barely perceptible red glint flashed in his eyes.

After a moment of silence, he spoke stiffly to Minato Namikaze under everyone's gaze.

"Can!"

After the Fourth A said those words, not only Nara Shikaku, who was standing behind Namikaze Minato, but also Tsuchida, who was standing next to A, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other hand, Tachibana Kanagawa glanced at Raikage A a few more times with some curiosity.

For a moment, it was hard to tell whether this guy was under the control of an illusion.

However, Tachibana Kenkawa is not prepared to continue exploring here today.

Fortunately, it was just a matter of sending more spies to Kumogakure later.

Watching Nara Shikaku and Tsuchida begin writing their own letters, preparing to send them back to the front lines.

Then Minato Namikaze summoned a strangely shaped little toad and handed it a scroll, seemingly preparing to send a message to Jiraiya as well.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, Tachibana Kanagawa reached out and waved to Zabuza, who was standing behind her.

"Zabuza, give me the scrolls of those two corpses."

As she said this, Tachibana Kanagawa recalled the awkwardness of the previous conversation and was also afraid that Zabuza might cause her some trouble again.

Instead of pretending to be aloof, he directly and clearly reminded Zabuza what he wanted.

After taking the scroll containing the corpses of "Little Red" and "Little Yellow" from Zabuza, Tachibana Kenkawa tossed it towards the direction where Minato Namikaze and the other two were standing without even looking at it.

Seeing that Kakashi Hatake had nothing to do, he quickly dodged and caught the scroll.

Then, Tachibana Kanakawa smiled gently at Minato Namikaze and spoke.

"Since the Hokage is planning to investigate this matter and give the Raikage an explanation, he might as well give me one as well."

"The bodies of these two attackers shall be handed over to you for disposal, which will facilitate Konoha's subsequent investigation."

Upon hearing Tachibana's words, Minato Namikaze and Mifune both showed expressions of gratitude.

Now that Tachibana Kenkawa has handed over the follow-up investigation to Konoha, the Land of Iron, as the location of the incident, can be considered to have directly extricated itself from the matter.

On Konoha's side, while Minato Namikaze was grateful for Tachibana Kanagawa's trust, he also understood that Kanagawa's actions were undoubtedly a sign that Kirigakure would not pursue the matter too much in the future.

After signaling Kakashi to put the scroll away, Minato Namikaze secretly decided that no matter what the truth was, he would give the Mizukage a satisfactory answer in the end.

Zabuza and Mei Terumi, standing behind Tachibana, looked at the Hokage with a solemn expression.

Then she recalled the scene where Tachibana Kenkawa had secretly carved a seal on the corpse's tongue.

They all gritted their teeth, forcing themselves to keep their faces from showing any change, and refusing to look at their Mizukage's current appearance.

Tachibana Kanagawa himself didn't care at all about what he had done before.

Instead, seeing that both Konoha and Kumogakure had sent out their messenger summoning beasts, he stood up and spoke.

"Now that the two of you have agreed to a temporary ceasefire, it's not convenient to discuss the details of the subsequent peace talks at this time. So, let's continue with that previous proposal to join forces against the organization behind the scenes?"

As soon as Jianchuan Ju spoke, everyone's attention was immediately drawn back to him.

Then everyone realized that after all that trouble, the most important topic of the meeting had not made any progress whatsoever.

Onoki, who had been sitting calmly on the stone chair, couldn't help but twitch his lips again when he saw that the Mizukage had unknowingly taken over the initiative in the conversation.

He simply stood up and addressed the crowd.

"Let's talk about the rest inside."

"Old people's bodies aren't as strong as yours, and they can't keep carrying this heavy load in this freezing weather."

Everyone immediately agreed with his words.

No sooner had Onoki finished speaking than everyone present had moved.

I don't know if it was caused by the effects of the previous battle.

The conference building, which had barely maintained its original appearance, suddenly began to emit a series of increasingly loud 'clicking' sounds.

As the cracking sound grew louder, visible cracks on the white walls of the pagoda-like building rapidly spread in all directions.

Then, as everyone expected, things unfolded.

"Boom!"

A series of sounds of bricks and stones collapsing rang out.

Large swaths of smoke and snowflakes rapidly spread in all directions.

A dozen or so heavily armored warriors from the Land of Iron rushed out of the building in a disheveled state.

After the smoke and dust completely dissipated.

Only then did everyone realize.

The once exquisite and majestic pagoda-shaped building has mostly collapsed and is now scattered all over the ground.

Small pieces of gravel and soil occasionally slip down from the fracture surface.

The large banner with the character "water" exposed to everyone's view, still fluttering in the snow and wind, was telling everyone something.

The conference room has completely collapsed and is no longer usable by anyone.

Both Mifune, the organizer, and Minato Namikaze, who had just participated in the battle, couldn't help but show a hint of embarrassment on their faces.

Onoki, who had just suggested that everyone go inside to talk, now stared wide-eyed at the dilapidated building in front of him, speechless for a long time.

Finally, it was Minato Namikaze, one of the instigators, who spoke first, somewhat embarrassed, to Mifune.

"Konoha will fund the subsequent repairs and reconstruction of the building."

Upon hearing this, Mifune looked speechlessly at Minato Namikaze, who had spoken.

Knowing that this was not the time to concern himself with such trivial matters, he waved helplessly at Minato Namikaze and said wearily.

"There are a few smaller rooms at the back of this building, which should be unaffected. If you don't mind..."

Looking at Mifune, who looked rather pitiful and whose posture was even slightly hunched, Tachibana Kenkawa felt apologetic.

He then raised his hand to interrupt the other person and spoke to himself.

"Forget it, no need for that. Let me do it."

After saying that, Jianchuan Ju met the puzzled looks of the crowd and clapped his hands together.

"Mizukage! What are you doing?!"

He ignored Luo Sha's somewhat nervous words.

Jianchuan Ju immediately bent down and squatted down, quickly pressing her palms to the ground.

"White Release: Six Pillars Clan Technique!"
