Naruto: My Chat Group Spans History.

Chapter 232 What Happened to the Kidneys?

In a magnificent reception room, the five figures gathered.

Throughout the history of the ninja world, the gathering of the Five Kage has invariably been due to the occurrence of a major event.

And most of them are accompanied by a tense atmosphere, but at this moment.

The atmosphere here was unbelievably calm.

Rayleigh reached out and picked up an orange, carefully peeled it, gently removed each strand of white pith, and then swallowed the whole orange in one gulp.

"I thought someone as rugged as you would eat your fill, skin and all."

A curious voice came from beside the Raikage.

The Raikage turned his head and saw Onoki sipping his tea, watching him with a faint smile on his face.

"Tch, what a biased old man."

Raikage curled his lip and snatched the tea and teapot that Onoki had painstakingly brewed.

Undeterred by the heat, he poured it straight down his throat, and within a few sips, the carefully prepared tea was completely gone.

"Hey, you can't drink tea like that!"

"You have to savor the flavor of it; you can't just wolf it down like that!"

Onoki's eyes widened, his face filled with helplessness and anger.

But he could only watch helplessly as the empty teapot was thrown back in front of him.

"I really..."

Onoki felt a sudden darkness before his eyes. The pot of tea he had painstakingly prepared over half an hour, which he had intended to savor for a long time, was drunk up by the Raikage in less than ten seconds.

"You also said I was generalizing, but look at the impression you've left on others."

Onoki continued to puff out his beard and glare.

Lei Ying remained unmoved, and simply smiled as he began peeling the orange again.

Let's set aside these two people who are bickering for now.

With a crisp sound, Shuimen placed a chess piece on the chessboard.

Luo Sha, sitting opposite him, immediately became serious, his eyes fixed on the chessboard.

Despite his painstaking analysis, he could only conclude that defeat was inevitable no matter what.

"You've won this game." Luo Sha slowly put down the chess piece, his tone calm and steady.

Minato Namikaze responded with a smile.

"How about one more time? My thinking wasn't clear enough just now, so I want to try a different approach this time."

The two quickly set up the chessboard and immediately began a new game.

"You should move black first."

"Then I won't stand on ceremony."

After nodding in acknowledgment, Luo Sha picked up a chess piece with two fingers and placed it directly in the center of the chessboard.

Upon witnessing this, even the usually gentle and refined Minato couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly.

From now on, it can be basically determined that Luo Sha is probably not proficient in the way of Go, but belongs to the kind of person who knows a little bit about it but enjoys it immensely.

In layman's terms, he's bad at the game but loves to play.

Choosing to place a piece at the center point at the beginning may result in an overly concentrated layout and a loss of control over the edges of the board.

In actual competition, it is very important to grasp the overall situation. Taking control of the center too early may make it easier for the opponent to take the initiative in the development of the situation.

Even those with extensive experience in Go rarely act so rashly except in special circumstances.

However, for beginners, doing so might make them feel quite imposing and stylish.

"It's your turn, Hokage-sama."

Seeing that Minato hadn't made a move for a long time, Rasa spoke up to remind him.

Minato casually placed a white piece as a sign of acceptance of the challenge.

"Hehehe..."

A silvery laugh drifted from the side.

Minato's eyes flickered slightly. What could have made this Mizukage laugh so heartily?

Turning my head, I saw Mei Terumi engrossed in reading a book.

After gently placing a chess piece on the board to counter Rasa, Minato glanced curiously at the book in Mei Terumi's hand.

"A paradise for intimate moments?!"

A look of disbelief and surprise flashed across his face.

I can't believe there's a book like this here!

Seeing Mei Terumi engrossed in her books, Minato sighed and rubbed his temples in exasperation.

"It seems that Jiraiya-sensei has gained another loyal fan."

"Hokage, what happened?" Rasa noticed something was wrong and asked in confusion.

"It's okay, let's continue."

Minato smiled and picked up another Go piece, just as he was about to place it—

A deafening explosion suddenly erupted.

Immediately following was an unprecedented and violent tremor!

As if the world had been turned upside down, everyone in the room was suddenly thrown over and involuntarily jumped up from their chairs.

The chessboard then fell, scattering the black and white pieces everywhere.

But at this moment, no one cared about these trivial matters; everyone stood up in a panic.

Fortunately, the shaking came and went quickly, and everything returned to calm after a short while.

What happened to your kidneys?

The Raikage looked serious, wondering if Deidara had gotten into trouble again.

The group all looked at Onoki; clearly, he wasn't the only one who had considered this possibility.

"I'll go check it out." Onoki said calmly, then floated up to prepare for action.

"Earth Shadow, no need for that."

At that moment, Minato spoke up to stop Onoki, who was about to leave.

He walked slowly to the window, his gaze fixed on the distance, a smile playing on his lips.

"The sound is coming from the Death Forest, so the final assessment must be over."

He smiled calmly: "There's nothing to panic about."

The shadow figures looked at each other in bewilderment: they could hear the commotion from such a distance, it seemed like the Death Forest was about to be breached.

"For Konoha, a place known for its geniuses, this is indeed not a big deal."

Raikage sighed helplessly.

Without a doubt, someone named Shinomiya Yuuki is involved behind the scenes.

That said, such strength is simply unbelievable; I really don't know how they were trained...

He felt a pang of sadness: Why doesn't our Cloud Village have a similar existence?

“Let’s go, let’s go and see what’s going on,” Minato Namikaze suggested gently.

"Okay." The group nodded in agreement.

Minato lightly touched their shoulders, and in an instant, a golden light flashed, and the figures of the group disappeared from the room using the Flying Thunder God Technique.

When several figures appeared on the once vibrant ruins of the Death Forest—

The once lush and verdant land has been completely destroyed, replaced by a massive, astonishing sinkhole.

The lava inside the crater surged and boiled, and billowing hot air rose into the air, bearing witness to the extraordinary destructive power of this attack.

Standing on the edge of the sinkhole and looking down at the scene below, everyone was briefly stunned.

Is this something a ninja could do?

They were already quite shocked when they saw Shinomiya Yuzuki demonstrate her time reversal ability.

However, the scene before them now pushed this impression to its extreme.

Pure, extreme destructive power is often the most direct way to measure a person's strength.

Chapter 233 He was smashed into ninja fragments

"The destruction is truly astonishing..." Minato Namikaze muttered to himself, then looked around as if he had remembered something important:

"Were the other children who participated in the assessment safely evacuated, or were they also caught up in it?"

"They should have escaped long ago," Onoki replied with a smile.

“No one would be foolish enough to face such a catastrophic attack under normal circumstances.”

"That's good." Minato breathed a sigh of relief.

"Someone is coming."

Lei Ying suddenly looked up, his gaze piercing through the clouds and locking onto several figures rapidly approaching from the horizon.

"Hey, everyone's here."

Yuuki Shinomiya descended slowly from the sky, carrying Naruto and Sasuke with ease, appearing quite content.

"It seems you've won."
