On the border between the Land of Iron and the Land of Taki, a space in the dense forest has been distorted for no reason. Immediately after, the masked man who claimed to be Madara Uchiha fell out with his clothes in tatters.

"The moon is clear...... We'll see......"

The masked man scolded resentfully, he didn't expect Qingyang to master such a dangerous ninjutsu. Although he was in front of the other four shadows before, he had a hand with Qingyang, but Qingyang also made him suffer a big loss. He can be said to be hateful and jealous of Qingyang now.

"What to do next is to wait until Sasuke is sober, I need to be treated myself. ”

Sasuke was receiving treatment from Xiang Phosphorus behind the masked man's different space at the moment, and the masked man was also injured at the moment of the explosion, but fortunately, Bai Jue appeared beside him in time at this moment.

A large part of the masked man's body is the same as Bai Jue's, and this tissue cultivated by Mu Dun Chakra has good self-healing properties, coupled with Bai Jue's help, it didn't take too long for the masked man to recover.

……

The masked man's next plan is still unknown, and it took a lot of effort for Qingyang to explain Itachi's problem to the other four shadows.

"That's all about Uchiha Itachi, itachi isn't technically a spy on my orders. I believe everyone understands that this kind of hidden mission is full of risks. I can't keep in touch with Itachi frequently, and I can only regret what happened to the people of the village. And please believe that I have not played any dishonorable role in this. ”

After telling all the causes and consequences of this incident, Qingyang sat there silently, without making any excuse for himself. The four shadows looked at each other, not knowing for a moment whether to believe Qingyang's words or not.

In the end, it was Ielo who took the lead in speaking.

"I believe the Hokage's words, for a long time, so many things have shown that the Hokage cares more about the threat of the Akatsuki Order. Allowing or even instructing the Akatsuki organization to capture the tailed beast did not do Konoha any benefit.

On the contrary, this would make the Akatsuki organization more threatening, and the Hokage had no reason to use such a means to weaken the other ninja villages. And speaking of which, except for Yun Yin, every village present has participated in the rebellion of the Xiao Organization, isn't it?"

Sand Hide and Konoha work the most closely, and Iairo has also dealt with Qingyang a lot, so after some thought, I Airo chose to believe in Qingyang.

"In the battle to expel Madara Uchiha, the Hokage spared no effort to help us, even he himself almost lost his life, and I would like to believe the Hokage. ”

It's rare that Mizukage didn't express his final opinion this time, and he also expressed his attitude clearly. However, Qingyang noticed, and when Mizukage expressed his attitude, Qing, who was standing behind her, frowned slightly.

Qing is a very mature ninja, in his opinion, the Hokage has become the target of everyone, Mizukage should not be so close to the Hokage, and because there are ninjas of the Hyuga clan among the guards brought by the Hokage this time, so Qing instinctively chose to reject.

Qingyang looked thoughtfully at Qing's covered eyes, but he didn't say anything. At the moment, it is more important to promote cooperation between the five ninja villages, and some things can be completely put on the back burner and try to solve them by peaceful means.

At this time, Mifune, who had not spoken all this time, spoke.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to express my opinion. So far, I'm willing to believe the Hokage myself.

But unfortunately, the suspicion that the Hokage had other ideas cannot be completely ruled out. For this reason, my personal opinion is to temporarily cancel the decision to make the Hokage as the manager, and then choose another manager from among the other candidates. ”

"I agree with this suggestion. ”

When Lei Ying heard Mifune say this, he did not hesitate to express his support, and he has not given up the fight for the position of coach until now.

Among the five shadows, only Onoki has not yet expressed his position, before he chose to support Qingyang, but now there was a sudden accident in the middle, which made Onoki a little embarrassed for a while.

"I want to hear your opinion again, and I'll wait a while before I make a statement. ”

"Hey, slick old fellow. ”

Thunder Shadow unabashedly expressed his dissatisfaction, while Onoki pretended not to hear it, and began to close his eyes and recuperate.

Qingyang suddenly coughed lightly twice, and after organizing the language, he said to Mifune.

"Admiral Mifune, I think to believe is to believe, and not to believe is not to believe. There is no reason for you to believe me and at the same time refute the previous unanimous resolution.

Taking a step back, even if I am very suspicious, so what? Aren't the five ninja villages present full of suspicion among each other?

If I am to be stripped of my position as manager because of a false accusation by the enemy, then I think it is necessary to emphasize again who our real enemy is.

Our most important enemy at the moment is the Akatsuki organization, and I'm sure none of you here have any doubts about that. ”

Speaking of this, Qingyang consciously looked around, and as long as he saw it, he would subconsciously nod.

"Since we can agree on this point, then we also have a basis for communication, Xiao organization is the enemy, and in the course of the war, the enemy will naturally attack from all angles.

It's all too common to use stratagems to divide and break down an alliance, and the words that the masked man said before he escaped are clearly a weird attempt to divide us.

It's just that I have to admit that his strategy was successful, because the core problem of what he said was true, and that was that the Uchiha Itachi was indeed alive under my protection. ”

After such an orderly analysis by Qingyang, everything seemed to be clear, and everyone nodded again with reason, and people like Temari, whose battle IQ was obviously higher than that of Quans, showed a very exaggerated expression of sudden realization.

After taking in everyone's expressions, Qingyang said with an extremely solemn face.

"The so-called negotiation is actually in the face of the biggest thing, you first give up the grievances on the small thing. At the same time, only individual regression and compromise can lead to a great decision. ”

Speaking of this, Harumi lowered his tone very low, and this momentum made a young man like Nagajuro can't help but duck his head back.

"The so-called regression and compromise, to put it bluntly, is to give a part of one's own interests. No one wants to do such a thing as giving up interests. But at this juncture, if you don't want to complete the transfer and exchange of interests, you want to promote the coalition?

Isn't that naïve?"

It seemed that it was Harumi's slightly contemptuous statement that made Mifune feel a little offended, and he leaned forward and pressed his hands on the negotiating table.

"What Hokage-sama said makes a lot of sense, so the question is, what benefits does the Hokage intend to cede in this matter of promoting the coalition?

Perhaps I could put it more bluntly, that your problem is not just a matter of interest. But now we don't have any means to counterbalance you!"

This time there was no chance for Qingyang to answer, and Mifune kept talking.

"As for the Hokage, your strength has been seen by everyone just now. You have such strength at such an age, and at the same time you are not alone in the battle, you still have an elite army in your hands that is completely obedient to your orders.

If the Hokage becomes the commander of this coalition again...... To tell you the truth, if you become evil, I can't think of any way to counterbalance you.

The consequences were terrible, and I didn't want to take that risk. Although I have not experienced a time when Madara Uchiha plunged the entire ninja world into fear, in my opinion, if you fall into evil, the harm will be no less than Madara Uchiha. ”

The more Mifune spoke, the more excited he became, but he didn't see that Haruyo was already almost laughing, he never thought that Mifune would say such a ridiculous thing.

"Admiral Mifune, are you joking with me? If not, then I can only say that you are exalting me too much. Let's not talk about whether I have the same destructive power as Madara Uchiha, it seems that Admiral Mifune's understanding of me is only on paper, right?

I understand the Iron Country's struggle to remain independent in order to ensure the existence of an absolutely neutral country, but I would suggest that Omfune Shogun try to open the door to the Iron Country.

If I try to cooperate with Konoha a few more times, I think Admiral Mifune will be able to understand that in my place, here in Konoha, there will be no destruction and destruction, only construction and prosperity. If you're not convinced, I think you can ask a few of them, and I think they'll be fair to me. ”

Hearing Qingyang say this, Mifune was also a little stunned, and looked at the other four shadows blankly.

"Hmm...... He is still worthy of recognition in this regard, he signed a good agreement with us when he was not the Hokage, and now the communication between Iwakure and Konoha is much more frequent than before, and many people have benefited from this. ”

Onoki said slowly, and the black soil beside him couldn't help but interject a sentence.

"That's right, and we've also held joint exams, so the safety of the students has been guaranteed. ”

Tuying glanced at Heitu helplessly, Heitu has always wanted to interject since he came here, of course, he wants to say a few words to Qingyang, but now it is for her to seize the opportunity and quickly say a good word for Qingyang.

"Sha Yin is gradually getting rid of poverty. ”

Compared to Onoki, who wants to speak subtly, I Airo is much more concise and direct.

"Hehe, the Hokage is a very good person who is very good at settling disputes. ”

Terumi said with a chuckle, looking at Qingyang's calm appearance made her feel admired, it was indeed remarkable that such a young man dared to lead such a meeting.

“……

I never cared about what he said, but this kid does seem to be doing a good job.

……”

Lei Ying said with some reluctance, of course he and Qingyang have no grudges, but he just feels unhappy in his heart when he sees such a little ghost who didn't care about it grow up like this.

After receiving the answer from the Four Shadows, Mifune pondered for a while and then whispered a few words to his lieutenant.

"Well, maybe I was looking at things in a narrow way before. Since the Four Shadows have a positive assessment of Hokage's person, then I apologize for Fang Cai's offense.

But let's go back to the previous question, Hokage-sama, what benefits do you plan to give up for the sake of the alliance? ”

Qingyang calmly took out a scroll from his arms.

"I had prepared for this before I came, and if I wanted to bring about a coalition, I would release some of the materials for the training of the Ministry of Ninja. Except for the forbidden techniques involving Konoha safety and immorality, I can share with you all the training methods that improve the combat effectiveness of ninjas. ”
