Konoha: Intentionally losing to Hinata at the start

After glancing at Nagato, Yu Ming disappeared from the scene.

Nagato is now certain to die.

Even with the Rinnegan, he couldn't be saved.

His heart is gone. He's neither the Sage of Six Paths nor Madara Uchiha. Those two could restore him even if they blew off his head, let alone his heart.

Yu Ming had no intention of pursuing Konan. Since he was going to be killed by Obito anyway, why should he bother?

As for saving her, Yu Ming and she weren't even familiar with each other, so why would he save her?

After Yu Ming disappeared, Xiao Nan dragged her injured body back into the tree hole.

But by then Nagato had already lost his life.

Konan looked at Nagato, who had already lost his life, with despair and cried out in anguish.

She hated Yu Ming, but not entirely.

Because she knew that even without Yu Ming, Nagato wouldn't last more than a few days.

He came to Konoha on an adventure because he felt his days were numbered, wanting to use his last bit of strength to capture the Nine-Tails.

Who knew they would encounter such a formidable opponent as Yu Ming?

After returning to Konoha, Yu Ming appeared behind Tsunade.

The smell of blood emanating from Yu Ming was unmistakable.

Tsunade frowned. "The opponent is very strong?"

Yu Ming remained calm. "They weren't very strong. I just didn't expect them to arrive so quickly. Now that I've taken them down, what about the village's losses?"

Yu Ming didn't care at all that he had killed a super shadow-level expert, because he had killed several such experts before.

There are many ninjas stronger than Nagato.

Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought it would be a tough battle, but Yu Ming had defeated his opponent so quickly.

Because Pain only wreaked havoc in Konoha for a few minutes, the village's losses were not significant.

After news of Nagato's death and Konan's serious injury reached the Akatsuki organization...

Everyone in the Akatsuki organization was stunned.

I never expected that Nagato would die in battle. He had the Rinnegan.

Moreover, after he died in battle, it didn't cause any damage to Konoha, and the Nine-Tails wasn't captured.

For a time, the Akatsuki organization was filled with deep fear of Yu Ming's strength.

Even Kakuzu and Hidan were recalled.

Kakashi and the others were almost able to find the two of them when they were recalled at the last moment.

Obito, who had rejoined the Akatsuki, received the Rinnegan from Konan after she returned.

In just over a month, the Akatsuki organization has regrouped, and the One-Tailed, Two-Tailed, Three-Tailed, Four-Tailed, Five-Tailed, Six-Tailed, and Seven-Tailed are now in their hands.

Most of the Two-Tails' chakra was in Akatsuki's hands, and the Two-Tails inside Yuki Nii was reshaped by Yu Mei using Yin-Yang Release.

More than a month later, Itachi Uchiha and Sasuke engaged in a great battle.

The final result remained unchanged: Itachi Uchiha was defeated and awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.

At the same time, Obito told Sasuke that Itachi Uchiha was a Konoha spy.

Sasuke ultimately chose to take revenge on Konoha.

Although he knew that Yu Ming was in Konoha, he felt that his strength had caught up with Yu Ming's considerably because he had now awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Sasuke, who possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan, leads Team Taka to Kumogakure to capture Killer Bee.

Although they didn't manage to capture Killer Bee, they did obtain one of the Eight-Tails' tentacles, which meant they gained a portion of the Eight-Tails' chakra.

Following this, Obito Uchiha planned to launch the Fourth Shinobi World War.

Having all the tailed beasts except the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails, he is now capable of launching a Fourth Shinobi World War. Capturing the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails through the Fourth Shinobi World War would be a good idea.

At the same time, Obito Uchiha also collaborated with Kabuto Yakushi to create the White Zetsu army.

When Killer Bee ran out of the village, the Fourth Raikage thought he had really been captured by the Akatsuki.

They wanted to convene a Five-Shadow Conference immediately.

During this period, the Akatsuki organization captured all the Jinchuriki from various ninja villages.

I believe that the Kage from each of the ninja villages will participate.

Samui's squad was sent to Konoha by the Fourth Raikage to inform the village.

The reason they sent Samui's team was because they were quite familiar with Yu Ming.

They had also heard that the leader of the Akatsuki was killed by Yu Ming during the attack on Konoha.

During the Five Kage Summit, the Raikage was most concerned about Konoha's attitude, because the strongest villages at present were Kumogakure, Konoha, and Iwagakure.

Because of Yu Ming's presence, Konoha became the strongest village among the five great ninja villages.

Although in terms of overall ability, he can only rank third, Yu Ming alone has made up for the gap.

It took Samui's squad several days to reach Konoha.

This is also their first time visiting Konoha.

Standing at the entrance to Konoha, the three of them were quite curious, since Konoha Village and Kumogakure Village were indeed quite different.

The terrain, landforms, and culture are all different.

Standing at the gates of Konoha Village, Karui asked curiously, "Wasn't Konoha attacked? How come it seems like there's no damage?"

Omoi laughed and said, "Didn't I say that Yu Ming took care of it? Do you think there's anything strange about Yu Ming's strength?"

Samui, with a cold face, calmly said, "Alright, stop talking and go inside."

After handing over some documents to the gatekeeper, the three were led into the Hokage's office.

At this moment, in the Hokage's office, Tsunade was assigning tasks.

All of Konoha's 12 Konoha 12, except for Sasuke, are here.

They were going to investigate Sasuke's whereabouts because someone had seen him fighting Itachi Uchiha.

At this moment, Samui was brought here by the ninjas of Konoha, and everyone looked at Samui and his two companions.

Yu Ming saw Samui and looked away from the book.

Looking at Samui, he smiled and said, "A rare guest indeed."

Tsunade did not know Samui, but she knew that the three of them were from Kumogakure.

Tsunade had no idea what the three ninjas from Kumogakure were doing here.

However, we still invited them in.

After exchanging pleasantries with Tsunade, Samui revealed the purpose of their visit.

Tsunade frowned after hearing this. "The Five Kage Summit? It's been so many years. What does the Fourth Raikage want to do?"

The Five Kage Summit was something that happened during Hashirama Senju's era.

But it only opened once.

There have been no Five-Shadow Talks since then.

So when Tsunade heard this word, it was even a little unfamiliar to her.

Tsunade looked at Yu Ming, who in turn looked at Samui and asked, "Did the Raikage-sama say what his purpose was?"

Samui explained.

Yu Ming understood; it was still because of Xiao's matter.

Yu Ming looked at Tsunade and smiled, "Hokage-sama, what do you think?"

Tsunade pondered for a moment, then said, "Okay, we'll go back and participate then."

After receiving Tsunade's reply, Samui glanced at Yu Ming and then left.

However, Naruto kept frowning, clearly having some mixed feelings about Samui's words.

After staying in Konoha for a while, the three of them left.

Samui looked somewhat dejected after leaving Konoha.

Karui looked at Samui curiously, "Why does Samui look so downcast?"

Omoi glanced at Samui and said calmly, "Perhaps it's because Yuming didn't come out to see her off. After all, Samui seems to like Yuming."

Samui looked at Omoi with some anger upon hearing this.

Omoi was now in an awkward position.

He was right, though; Samui was indeed upset because Yuming hadn't come out to see her off.

At this moment, Yu Ming was discussing with Tsunade who should accompany the Five Kage Summit.

As was customary during the first Five Kage Summit, the Kage of each village would usually go with their successors and the ninjas they favored.

For example, the guards brought by the Kage of each village during the first Five Kage Summit later became the Kage of their respective villages.

Finally, Yu Ming laughed and said, "Let's take Kakashi-sensei with us."

Tsunade nodded. "I think so too."

Now that Tsunade knows that Yu Ming really doesn't want to become Hokage, she has no intention of pursuing him and has shifted her focus to Kakashi, deciding to groom him as her successor.

The original plan was to have Kakashi become the Sixth Hokage, and Yu Ming take over as the Seventh Hokage.

Now that Yu Ming (64th generation) is unwilling to become Hokage, Kakashi (460th generation) is the only option.

When Kakashi received the mission, he actually knew what Tsunade meant.

The Five Kage Summit has a very different meaning; the guards are basically the successors of the previous generation of Kage.

Tsunade's actions have made it clear to everyone.

As for the Daimyo, we can just greet him when the time comes, since the Daimyo doesn't concern himself with the affairs of the ninja villages.
