Tsunade, you're really drunk!

Ōnoki's words made sense and once again stirred the emotions of a large group of jonin, causing them to identify with the village and their identity as Iwagakure ninjas even more strongly.

His face was full of enthusiasm, and he couldn't wait to start working on the commission from Fuzi Village and do something about it.

Only Lao Zi remained silent after hearing this, always feeling that something was wrong.

Could it be that Konoha is really so kind and has no ulterior motives?

At this moment, a long-lost voice appeared in Lao Zi's mind.

"Lao Zi, what are you worried about? You're so hesitant. This doesn't seem like something you would do."

"If you have anything to say, why don't you just tell them directly? Will it be useful if you keep it in your heart?"

The four-tailed Sun Wukong teased.

Lao Zi remained silent, looked around at the other ninjas, and finally silently placed his gaze on Oonoki.

The overall situation has been decided, and almost everyone believes Ōnoki's inference, thinking that this is the commission and benefits that the Iwagakure Village has fought for itself. In this case, even if he can find the loopholes, it will probably be difficult to reverse the overall situation.

Not to mention that he only felt that something was wrong based on instinct and couldn't find the loophole at all.

This is the general trend. Even though he is the village's Jinchūriki and possesses the power of the Four-Tails, he cannot reverse the current situation.

Han, who was sitting next to Lao Zi, said nothing. He closed his eyes and listened quietly to everything happening around him. He was different from Lao Zi. He didn't care what other people thought. He only needed to obey the orders of the Tsuchikage.

This is his awareness and belief as a Jinchūriki.

Ohnoki glanced at Lao Zi on the other side, and when he saw that the other party did not refute him again, he nodded slightly with satisfaction.

It seems that this stubborn guy finally realized that he was not right this time and understood what the general trend is. It would be better to suppress him appropriately. Otherwise, if Lao Zi's personality is allowed to continue, it will be an extremely unstable existence for the village.

Then he raised his hand to signal, and everyone quieted down again.

"After the Third Ninja World War, a powerful and mysterious ninja appeared in the area between the Iron Kingdom and the Hot Spring Kingdom to the north of the Fire Kingdom and occupied that land alone."

"But three years ago, the mysterious leader who was hiding in the dark seemed to have evaporated in the ninja world. There is no news about him. That place has become a gathering place for wandering ninjas and rebel ninjas in the ninja world. It is occupied by various wandering ninja groups and local thugs."

"The Nadeshiko Village wanted to take over that piece of land, and issued a large-scale war commission to Konoha."

"This is the mission that our Iwagakure Village is going to take on. Please share your opinions."

After Ohnoki finished speaking, Wen Ya, the elite jonin of the Iwagakure Village and the squad leader of the Sealing Squad, who was sitting in the same row as Ohnoki, the third seat on the left, raised his hand to speak.

"If I remember correctly, there was a ninja village called Otogakure Village there for a short period of time. Although the identity of its leader was kept extremely secret, according to intelligence from all sources, there seemed to be quite a few bloodline ninjas there who all mastered some strange escape techniques and whose strength should not be underestimated."

"I'm worried that Konoha pushed this commission to us because they want to use us, the Iwagakure ninjas, to test the strength there."

"Let us be the vanguard and reap the benefits in the end."

Wen Ya's words made many people discover a new direction, and it is indeed possible.

But Huang Tu expressed his own opinion at this time.

"If it was during wartime, it would be possible, and the probability is very high."

"But now the Hokage of Konoha is Tsunade. According to her personality and Uchiha Chiya's temperament, it is impossible for them to do such a rebellious thing."

"According to the current development ideas of the Ninja Association, peaceful common development and progress are their propositions and pursuits. Once this principle is violated, the Ninja Association that Konoha has spent so much time and effort to establish will lose its meaning."

"Once the reputation and credibility are lost, the association will automatically dissipate. For Konoha, it will even further damage the reputation of the village, making other countries and villages full of fear and suspicion of it."

As the head of the Iwagakure Ninja Association, Huang Tu has to deal with ninjas from various villages every day. Being among them, he can clearly feel the difference between the ninjas who join the Ninja Association and other ninjas.

They do not take past hatred too seriously. Most of them are relatively young ninjas who have not experienced war and are more eager for a peaceful and stable ninja world.

He didn't think that Konoha would go back on its word and do such a stupid thing at this time.

Huang Tu's words made Wen Ya fall into deep thought. As a ninja who had experienced two Ninja World Wars, he instinctively rejected other countries and villages, but Huang Tu's words made sense.

Since the establishment of the Ninja Association, the development of the Iwagakure Village has indeed made considerable progress, but the hatred in his heart prevents him from facing everything so calmly.

After all, his former team members all died at the hands of Minato Namikaze during the Third Ninja World War. Even though he was dead, the hatred did not disappear, but was transferred to Konoha.

Chi Tu, who was standing aside, looked at Wen Ya's frown and didn't know what to say. He was not good at speaking and didn't know how to comfort people, so he just patted Wen Ya's shoulder with his right hand.

The jonins in the audience all fell into deep thought at the same time.

Brothers, lovers, children, parents, friends, as ninjas, they have all experienced such tragic pasts, they have lost too much.

Some people believe that hatred cannot be forgotten and blood debt must be repaid with blood.

Some people want to let go of their hatred because they have new bonds, the children in the ninja school, their lovers, and their best friends who are still alive, these are their most precious treasures.

The scene fell into silence. Although everyone's eyes were still red, this time it was not because of anger or excitement.

It is the remembrance of those who have passed away and the longing for those who care about us.

Seeing this scene, Lao Zi didn't want to refute anything at this moment.

Although he didn't want the village to be involved in such war missions again, the reality is often cruel.

In order to accompany the people they care about and to avoid sacrifice, they do not want to accept such a commission.

But for the construction of the village and to give future children a better life, they had to accept such a commission, otherwise the village would have no money to continue to grow and develop.

"Now, everyone, write down your choices on the paper. If you agree to accept this commission, write yes, and if you disagree, write no."

"After writing, put it in the box in front of the stage and vote anonymously."
