The venue fell into a deathly silence.

Killer Bee's face turned extremely grim, like the sky before a storm.

"Where did you get these?"

Hiruko did not answer his question directly, but instead asked in return, "Kumogakure rejects peace proposals while secretly preparing for war."

"Does this mean that your village is the real threat to the peace of the ninja world?"

Huang Tu and Mei Terumi's expressions instantly turned serious, their eyes fixed on Killer Bee.

The representative from Sunagakure pointed angrily at Killer Bee and shouted, "So that's how it is! Your Kumogakure had no intention of maintaining peace at all!"

Just as the tense atmosphere reached its peak, the conference room door was suddenly pushed open.

A ninja from the Grass Village rushed in, panting, knelt on one knee, and said urgently, "Excuse me for disturbing you, sirs! Urgent information!"

"Speak quickly!" Huang Tu urged loudly.

"An elite force from Kumogakure is gathering on the border of the Land of Grass, seemingly ready to launch a surprise attack at any moment!" the Grass Village ninja said breathlessly.

"What?!" Huang Tu and Terumi Mei stood up in shock at the same time, their faces full of astonishment and vigilance.

Killer Bee's face instantly changed from red to white, then from white to blue, as if it had undergone a dramatic color transformation.

The venue immediately descended into chaos.

The representatives from the small ninja village began to whisper among themselves, some with expressions of fear, as if a great calamity was about to befall them.

Some glared angrily at Kirabi, their eyes filled with resentment.

"Quiet!" Hiruko suddenly raised his voice, releasing a powerful burst of chakra that instantly silenced the noisy hall.

"Gentlemen, this is precisely why we need to establish a joint chamber of commerce."

"Mutual suspicion and clandestine operations will only lead to a new war."

"Only through economic interdependence can we truly build trust between each other."

He then turned to Killer Bee, his gaze sharp: "Does your Hidden Cloud Village still oppose the establishment of the Joint Merchant Guild?"

"Or rather, are you willing to become the sinner who triggers a new round of the Shinobi World War?"

Killer Bee said in a low voice, "I need to contact Lord Raikage."

“Of course.” Hiruko nodded slightly.

"But before that, as a representative of Kumogakure, do you have the right to temporarily agree to participate in the preparatory discussions for the Chamber of Commerce? At least it would demonstrate Kumogakure's sincerity towards peace."

All eyes were fixed on Killer Bee, like spotlights.

“…Okay.” He finally managed to squeeze out the word through gritted teeth, his voice low and hoarse.

"Kumakuya...agrees to participate in the discussion."

The atmosphere in the room immediately relaxed, as if the tension had eased slightly.

Huang Tu and Terumi Mei visibly breathed a sigh of relief, their tense shoulders relaxing slightly.

Hiruko smiled sincerely and with satisfaction, saying, "Thank you for your wise decision, Killer Bee."

The meeting continued all night, until the clock struck midnight.

The meeting did not seem to produce any immediate results.

However, people at different levels vaguely sensed that when facing Konoha, Kumogakure always seemed to be in an extremely passive position.

The Hidden Cloud Village once provoked the Hidden Leaf Village. Although its overall strength may not be as good as the Hidden Leaf Village's, the gap between the two sides is not as huge as many people imagine.

However, starting with the Fourth Hokage, Kumogakure seemed to have truly fallen into decline.

This is not a lack of high-end combat capabilities, but rather an overall backwardness.

While Konoha galloped forward like a swift horse, Kumogakure could only carry a heavy burden and struggle along behind.

It is foreseeable that the gap between the two sides will snowball and grow larger and larger in the future.

Should we change our attitude towards Konoha?

Some people already have the answer in their hearts, while others are unwilling to face it, but everyone clearly knows that the world is quietly changing.

If no choice is made, one will soon be left far behind by the tide of the times.

It's worth mentioning that Tsunade's hemophobia was actually cured after Hiruko helped her resolve her inner conflict.

This seems a bit strange. Rather than saying that he suddenly stopped being afraid of blood, it's more accurate to say that he found a reason that would allow him to continue fighting steadfastly even when faced with blood.

In the original work, Naruto, a teenager, persuaded an old man who had lost all hope in life with just a few words, which was quite comical.

In reality, Tsunade may have already overcome her inner fears; her heart is like that of a wise, centenarian who has experienced many hardships.

How could he be so easily blinded by passion like a young man in his early twenties who has never experienced anything?

Tsunade has experienced and seen more than he has eaten, and she's probably already tired of those passionate words.

The reason she was persuaded was because deep down, she had always hoped that someone could convince her to return to Konoha.

After all, Konoha was her home, no matter what. Even if there were many difficulties and problems there, it was the final destination for all the Senju clan members, nothing more.

Therefore, Tsunade's decision to stay made Hiruko very happy.

After all, having a capable assistant once in a while would make anyone happy.

After the meeting, Beirut went directly back to his residence.

In the lounge, the lights were soft, and Beiruhu sat comfortably on the bed, flipping through a book.

Tsunade finished tidying up the tableware and sat down on the bedside. She was elegant, with her black-stockinged legs naturally together, but she was slightly nervous at the moment, subconsciously gripping the hem of her skirt.

Hiruko put down the book, lay down, gently rested her head on Tsunade's lap, and then picked up the book again to continue reading.

Unlike Samui, Tsunade's thighs were soft and elastic, and the auras emanating from the two of them were also unique.

Tsunade gently stroked her hair, then casually plucked a golden strand and carefully folded and rubbed it in her hand.

Then he brushed aside the hair by Hiruko's ear, slowly slipped the golden hair inside, and gently rotated it while holding the other end with both hands.

She could hear the faint sound of hair brushing against her ear, but Tsunade's entire attention was focused on the man on her lap.

She could clearly feel the warmth of Hiruko's cheek, and this intimate contact made her feel both nervous and a little shy.

"Wouldn't this be a bit inappropriate..." Tsunade muttered softly, stopping what she was doing.

Hiruko seemed to notice her unusual behavior, looked up at her, and said with a smile, "What's wrong, Tsunade? Are you feeling unwell?"

Tsunade blushed and quickly shook her head: "No...no."

“No, you do. Let’s have something special today!” Hiruko quickly stood up.

He started a fight with Tsunade.

The rope dug deep into her slender wrists, swaying slightly with each impact, like a silent accusation.

His offensive was like a storm, each touch carrying an irresistible force.

Tsunade could feel the chakra surging from his knuckles, hot and savage, as if it wanted to crush her resistance completely.

Her breathing became more rapid, her body swaying under the light, her blonde hair clinging messily to her neck, outlining a breathtaking curve.

As the final impact landed, her consciousness blurred, and all she could hear was her own rapid breathing.

"Forehead!!"

Chapter 115 Yoru Kurano's Duo Queue

The lights on the ceiling cast a hazy glow, as if the whole world was spinning.

"Water Escape..."

His voice was deep and dangerous, and his chakra surged in the air.

The next second, a surging torrent of water swept in, a mixture of icy cold and scorching heat.

The water flow washed over every inch, taking away the last bit of strength.

"Waaah...!"

Her voice was drowned out by the torrent, and she could only let her consciousness gradually sink.

When everything finally stopped, her body slumped down as if she had a spasm.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly, like butterfly wings on the verge of breaking.

But he did not stop.

A shadow falls; a new offensive is about to begin...

The only question is whether Tsunade can withstand the enhanced Hiruko.

Recently, the Uchiha clan's Jonin exams have been fully scheduled, with five people already enrolled and the rest waiting in line.

This queue is real, because quite a few ninjas applied for the multi-person assessment.

The Uchiha clan, being the first to be targeted, is a remarkable case, as Hiruko's influence led to a significant increase in the number of Jonin within the Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Mikoto has been even busier lately. She has invited several intelligent members of her clan to begin preparations for some matters.

Today is the day that representatives from Kusagakure and Takigakure have come to sign a peace agreement with Konoha.

Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu couldn't sit still any longer and headed to the Hokage Building together.

When they arrived, they found that a lot of people had already gathered in the Hokage's office.

Nara Shikaku and Yamanaka Inoichi, the pair, had already arrived, along with Akimichi Choza, who was sitting leisurely, though they didn't seem as serious as Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was the last to arrive.

In addition, Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya, along with the mission team, the summoning beast team, and other related personnel, also arrived here. Minato Namikaze was personally brought by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

As soon as Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu arrived at the Hokage's office, they went straight to the chairs on either side of Namikaze Minato and invited everyone else to sit down as well.

Soon, the envoys from Kusagakure and Takigakure were brought to the Hokage's office.

The two villages actually had roughly the same demands, so they were brought along together.

After entering the house, the two introduced themselves to each other and then got straight to the point.
