Chapter 317: Temptation (1)
"If I don't know what method to use to deal with the four generations of Thunder Shadow of Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, not to mention that Konoha got the giant tortoise raised by Cloud Hidden Ninja Village from Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, it will be especially difficult to end the war between Konoha and Cloud Hidden Ninja Village as soon as possible!"
"After all, relying on the huge influence of the Night Moon Clan in the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, as long as the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village is not forced to the point of exhaustion, then the four generations of Thunder Shadow can completely force the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village to continue to be in a state of war!"
“……”
As the three generations of Hokage whispered to themselves, the night grew deeper and deeper.
……
——————————
The next day.
Morning.
Three generations of Hokage in the office of the Konoha Front Command.
At this moment, the three generations of Hokage summoned all the high-ranking members of the Konoha Front Command to their offices for a meeting - to discuss how to end the war between Konoha and the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village as soon as possible, and how Konoha could obtain the giant tortoises raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village from the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village.
As for why Konoha got the giant tortoise raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village from the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, the three generations of Hokage informed everyone present about the extraordinary effect of the giant tortoise raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village on the eight-tailed human pillar force of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village to become a perfect human pillar force.
"Hokage-sama, is what you said true?" asked a high-ranking member of the Konoha Frontline Command, "The giant tortoise raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village is really very effective for the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village's Eight-Tails Pillar Force to become a perfect human pillar force?"
"Hokage-sama, it's not that I don't believe your words, the main thing is that what you said is too surprising - the eight-tailed human pillar power and the two-tailed human pillar power of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village have also been passed down for several generations, if the giant tortoise raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village really has such a great effect, then the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village should not only have this generation of eight-tailed human pillar power to become a perfect human pillar force!"
Hearing the question of this high-ranking Konoha Frontline Command, the three generations of Hokage first glanced at every Konoha Frontline Command-level senior present present, and then said affirmatively: "Regarding the fact that the giant tortoise raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village has an extraordinary effect on the eight-tailed human pillar force of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village to become a perfect human pillar force, I can definitely inform everyone here - there is no falsehood!"
"As for why only this generation of Eight-Tailed Human Pillar Force has become a perfect human pillar force in Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, then I don't know!"
"But judging from the information obtained, if this generation of Cloud Hidden Ninja Village Eight-Tailed Human Pillar Force does not have the help of the giant tortoise raised by Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, then whether this generation of Cloud Hidden Ninja Village Eight-Tailed Human Pillar Force can become a perfect human Pillar Force, the result is unknown!"
"Furthermore, even if this generation of Cloud Hidden Ninja Village Eight-Tailed Human Pillar Force is extremely talented, without the help of the giant tortoise raised by Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, he can still become a perfect human pillar force in the end, but it is certain that in the process of becoming a perfect human pillar force, the hardships that this generation of Cloud Hidden Ninja Village Eight-tailed Human Pillar Force will have to pay more than the help of the giant tortoise raised by Cloud Hidden Ninja Village!"
Speaking of this, the third generation Hokage paused and continued: "What is human pillar power, what is perfect human pillar force, and what kind of gap there is between human pillar power and perfect human pillar force, everyone here must be clear!"
"Therefore, don't expect the giant tortoise raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village to be able to make the human pillar force grow into a perfect human pillar force, this is impossible—after all, no matter how much help the giant tortoise raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village is, it is only an external force!"
Regarding the fact that external forces cannot necessarily make the pillar force a perfect human pillar force, the high-level leaders of the Konoha Front Command Headquarters present all nodded in agreement.
Seeing that all the high-ranking officials of the Konoha Frontline Command in front of him agreed with what he said, the three generations of Hokage said again: "But even if the giant tortoise raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village is only an external force, we Konoha must find a way to get the giant tortoise raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village—after all, we Konoha should not turn a blind eye to any external force that can increase the human pillar power to become a perfect human pillar force!"
"Hokage-sama is right!"
"We really shouldn't give up!"
"We must find a way to get the giant tortoise raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village from the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village!"
……
Hearing what the three generations of Hokage said, the high-level leaders of the Konoha Front Command also knew that the giant turtle raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village did have an extraordinary effect on the Eight-Tails Human Pillar Force of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village to become a perfect human Pillar Force.
Therefore, all the high-ranking officials of the Konoha Frontline Command agreed with the fact that Konoha received the giant tortoise raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village from the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village.
With everyone in attendance agreeing on the same page, the three generations of Hokage and a group of Konoha frontline command leaders began to discuss the previous topics - how to end the war between Konoha and the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village as soon as possible, and how Konoha could get the giant tortoise raised by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village from the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village!
……
After the brainstorming of the three generations of Hokage and a group of high-ranking leaders of the Konoha Frontline Command, whether it was the three generations of Hokage or the high-ranking leaders of the Konoha Frontline Command, they all felt that taking the initiative to send an envoy to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village to test the attitude of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village would be conducive to how Konoha would face the next battle situation.
Therefore, with this intention in mind, the Konoha Front Command sent a person who was good at words and careful observation to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village.
As for the name of the Konoha Frontline Command sending personnel to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, it is a peace!
(The main reason why the Konoha Frontline Command sent personnel to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village to negotiate peace was to test the attitude of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village - for the war between Konoha and the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, does the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village still want to resolutely continue!)
(In addition, the reason why the Konoha Frontline Command only sent one person to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village to negotiate peace was not so much to conceal its intention of sending personnel to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village to test in the name of peace, but rather to let the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village understand the true intention of its temptation - in this way, it can test the attitude of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village!)
——————————
Cloud Hidden Ninja Village.
"What?" the fourth generation Thunder Shadow looked at the reporter in front of him in surprise and asked, "You said that the Konoha Front Command has now sent an emissary to our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village?"
"Lord Thunder Shadow, that's true!" replied the reporter, "This emissary sent by the Konoha Front Command is staying at the headquarters of our Front Command at this moment!"
Hearing the reporter's affirmation of his question, the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow asked, "What exactly is the purpose of sending such an envoy from the Konoha Front Command?"
"Lord Thunder Shadow, as for the intention of the envoy sent by the Konoha Front Command, the top management of our Front Command immediately asked the messenger sent by the Konoha Front Command Department!" replied to the reporter, "And the messenger sent by the Konoha Front Command also told the top of our Front Command that the Konoha Front Command wanted to negotiate peace with our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village!"
Hearing the reporter say this, the four generations of Thunder Shadow were even more surprised.
"Negotiate peace!?" the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow confirmed, "Are you sure that such an envoy sent by the Konoha Front Command is here to negotiate peace?"
"Lord Thunder Shadow, the word 'peace' was personally uttered by the envoy sent by the Konoha Front Command!" the reporter said, "As for whether the Konoha Front Command really has plans to negotiate peace, the top management of our Front Command thinks it's not very likely!"
"After all, the Konoha Frontline Command has only sent one person to our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village to negotiate peace, and it obviously lacks the sincerity it deserves!"
"Where is this to negotiate peace, it is simply to come to our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village under the guise of peace negotiation!" said the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow.
"Lord Thunder Shadow, some of the high-level leaders of our front-line command think the same!" the reporter said, "But considering that the peace between our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village and Konoha is not something that the front command of Cloud Hidden Ninja Village can make decisions on its own, therefore, our front-line command will report this matter back to Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, and I want to ask Lord Thunder Shadow to make a decision!"
"Apart from me, do the other high-ranking people in the village know about the Konoha Front Command sending a person to negotiate peace?" asked the fourth generation Thunder Shadow.
"No!" replied the reporter, "As soon as the liaison department received the news from our front-line headquarters, they sent me to inform Lord Thunder Shadow as soon as possible!"
"That's it!" the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow nodded, and then said, "Order! Let our front command directly reject the messenger sent by the Konoha front command!"
"Yes!" replied the debriefer, "Lord Thunder Shadow, I will relay your order to the Liaison Department, and notify our Front Command through the Liaison Department!"
After answering, the reporter planned to retreat respectfully.
"Wait!" As soon as the reporter took three steps, the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow shouted.
"Lord Thunder Shadow, do you have any other orders?" the reporter asked.
"Inform the other high-ups in the village of the news that the Konoha Front Command has sent a person to negotiate peace!" said the fourth generation Thunder Shadow, "and have the high-ranking people in the village come to my office for a meeting immediately!"
"As for the matter of asking our front-line command to reject the peacemakers sent by the Konoha front-line command, let's wait until I discuss it with the higher-ups in the village, and then notify our front-line command through the liaison department!"
"Lord Thunder Shadow, I understand!" the reporter said, "I'll inform the other high-ranking people in the village of the news that the Konoha Front Command has sent a person to negotiate peace!"
After saying that, the reporter left the office of the four generations of Thunder Shadow and headed towards the offices of the high-level officials of the various Cloud Hidden Ninja Villages.
As soon as the reporting personnel left, the fourth-generation Thunder Shadow muttered to himself: "It seems that the third-generation Hokage of Konoha should be in the Konoha Front Command now!"
"If it weren't for that, the Konoha Front Command wouldn't have the authority to send personnel to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village to negotiate peace!"
After talking to himself, the four generations of Thunder Shadow began to think about the gains and losses of the peace between the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village and Konoha Negotiation.
……
After a while.
After receiving the notification from the reporting personnel, the high-level officials of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village gathered in the office of the four generations of Thunder Shadow.
"Everyone, the reason for inviting you to my office, I think you all know it!" said the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow, "Now, please express your opinions on the dispatch of personnel from the Konoha Front Command to negotiate peace!"
Hearing the four generations of Thunder Shadow say this, the high-level officials of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, you look at me, I look at him, and they hesitated to each other.
"Everyone, don't worry about speaking boldly!" Seeing the hesitation of the high-level members of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow said, "Say whatever you want, don't have any scruples in your heart—in my place, there is no fault for those who speak!"
"Lord Thunder Shadow, I think we should resolutely reject the peace personnel sent by the Konoha Front Command!" said a senior member of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village.
"Yes!" said another high-ranking member of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, "Lord Thunder Shadow, the Konoha Front Command only sent one person to our Front Command Headquarters to talk about peace, and they despise our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village too much!"
"That's right," another high-ranking member of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village said, "Lord Thunder Shadow, the Konoha Front Command Headquarters only sent one person to our Front Command Headquarters to talk about peace, and there is no sincerity in negotiating peace!"
……
Among the high-ranking members of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, the vast majority of the high-ranking members of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village had the intention of refusing to send personnel from the Konoha Front Command to negotiate peace.
Seeing that the high-level officials of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village who were the first to speak wanted to refuse the personnel sent by the Konoha Frontline Command to negotiate peace, the four generations of Thunder Shadow opened his mouth and asked the high-level officials of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village who had not yet spoken, "What about you? What is your opinion that has not yet expressed your opinion?"
"Do you also plan to reject the peace personnel sent by the Konoha Front Command?"
Among the high-level leaders of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village who had not yet opened their mouths to express their opinions, one of the high-level officials of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village spoke: "Lord Thunder Shadow, the Konoha Front Command Headquarters only sent one person to negotiate peace with our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, nine times out of ten, they don't really want to negotiate peace, it is estimated that they just want to test the attitude of our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village- In this war between the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village and Konoha, our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village is already in a disadvantaged position, and the Konoha Front Command Headquarters, which knows that our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village is in a disadvantaged position, wants to know whether our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village intends to continue to fight the war resolutely!"
"Therefore, whether or not our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village rejects this peacemaker who was sent by the Konoha Frontline Command is not the point!"
"Then tell me what is the current focus of our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village?" asked the fourth generation Thunder Shadow.
The high-level of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village who was questioned said: "Lord Thunder Shadow, the focus now is on whether our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village really wants to continue the war between the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village and Konoha!"
"Only by understanding this will our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village not be led by the nose by the Konoha Frontline Command!"
"Keep talking!" said the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow.
