Naruto: I traveled through time with the Samsara Eye.

Regardless of whether he attends the Five Kage Summit or not, the Third Hokage needs to first understand the cause and process of holding this meeting.

Facing the Third Hokage's question, the Cloud Village's messenger explained, "Sir, this Five Kage Summit was not initiated by our village. The initiator was the Sand Village. Our village only served as the deliveryman for the invitation. As for why we initiated the Five Kage Summit..."

The messenger from the Cloud Shinobi Village stopped talking here.

The Third Hokage understood what the other party meant.

As for why the Five Kage Summit was held, that was not something a small messenger like him could know. Want to know?

Ask the Third Raikage.

Sand Village!!!

The Third Hokage felt something was wrong when he heard the other party say that the initiator of the Five Kage Summit was the Sand Village.

He felt that nothing good was waiting for him at this Five Kage Summit.

Who knows, Konoha might be targeted.

So the question is, why did the Sand Village go so crazy as to initiate the Five Kage Summit?

There's nothing wrong with them.

If the Five Kage Summit is initiated because of war, the Third Hokage can only say that the people of your Sand Village are seriously ill.

It was you who started the war, it was you who got beaten, and it was you who convened the Five Kage Summit.

After a moment of silence, the Third Hokage asked:

"Have other villages responded to this meeting?"

The Third Hokage didn't know what the Sand Village and the Cloud Village had done together that led the Cloud Village to agree to hold the Five Kage Summit, so what about the other villages?

As long as the Iwagakure and the Mist Village choose not to participate, the Third Hokage will choose to ignore this Five Kage Summit.

Because Konoha is at war with the Sand Village.

I don't have time to attend the Five Kage Summit.

"I have met several adults from other villages."

The envoy from the Cloud Village remains honest.

"........"

The Third Hokage.

This is troublesome.

If things go wrong, the village might be targeted.

The Five Kage Summit was held, and as a result of the negotiations with the other four villages, Konoha received a notice and an invitation letter. What does this mean?

This means that Konoha will be targeted in this Five Kage Summit.

The most annoying thing is that the other four villages are all participating, and Konoha has no choice but to participate, unless you want to be directly targeted.

The four villages joined forces to exert pressure and target... The Third Hokage's scalp tingled when he thought of that scene.

Damn it, the Sand Village doesn’t care about human nature.

After cursing a few words inwardly, the Third Hokage immediately asked the Hokage Guard to notify the Elders and Tsunade that he needed to discuss things in detail with the others.

Soon, the two elders who received the invitation and Tsunade arrived.

But the look that Utane Koharu gave Tsunade was somewhat unfriendly.

Tsunade chose to ignore her.

She's just an old woman who takes advantage of her age and seniority, not worthy of her attention.

Seeing the two elders sitting next to each other at the desk, Tsunade, who didn't want to get close to them, sat on the sofa far away and asked first:

"Old man, I'm busy. Is there something important that you want us to come over for?"

"Very important."

The Third Hokage sighed, picked up the invitation and shook it:

"The Sandaime Raikage sent an invitation letter. They want to hold a Five Kage summit. The Sand Village took the lead, and the other four villages have already negotiated. They just informed us."

There is trouble.

Mizuto Menen's face darkened, and Tsunade also put down the legs she had just crossed. Utane Koharu no longer had time to be angry with Tsunade.

"What do they mean by this? They discussed it together before notifying us. This is clearly targeting us."

Mizutomon Yan said in a deep voice: "It is targeted, and we have no way to stop it."

If it's just one village, or even if it's two villages targeting it, Konoha can fight back with strength. But if four of the five major ninja villages unite, can Konoha fight back?

No.

Tsunade couldn't quite understand:

"Is it worth holding the Five Kage Summit just for a war? Can the Sand Village afford the benefits and costs required to persuade other villages?"

Everyone thought that the Five Kage Summit was held because of the war.

"We will know the details after we go to the Iron Country and attend the meeting."

The Third Hokage kept thinking in his mind: "This person is not friendly."

Tsunade is right. It's just a war, but it has become like this. Why should you, the Sand Village, be so concerned?

The most outrageous thing is that the Sand Village successfully persuaded other villages.

It’s so outrageous that his mother opened the door for outrageous things. It’s so outrageous.

"Do we really want to attend this meeting that is clearly aimed at us?"

Koharu Utane was very unhappy.

She felt that Konoha should not participate in this targeted Five Kage Summit.

This old woman spoke without thinking, Tsunade asked unhappily: "Then if the other four villages join forces to put pressure on Konoha, can it withstand it?"

If they want to refuse to participate in such a Five Kage Summit, unless Hashirama Senju is resurrected, or there is a strong man like Hashirama Senju to suppress everyone, Konoha will have to abide by the rules of the five major ninja villages.

"Tsunade is right, we have no other choice."

In order to prevent Koharu Utane and Tsunade from quarreling, the Third Hokage spoke in time:

"We will definitely go, but the Sand Village is not that intent on joining forces with other villages to target us, because the Sand Village cannot afford the cost. I think it may be some targeted prevention."

He tapped the table heavily with his fingers.

The Third Hokage said:

"Tsunade, after I leave, the village will be handed over to you. I believe you can handle the affairs of the village. Menyan will cooperate with you. As for Xiaochun...you should stay the same as before."

Mitokado En can still assist Tsunade, and it's a good thing that Utane Koharu doesn't hinder us.

"As for the guards......"

When the Hokage travels, protection is of the utmost importance. Originally, Mito Kado En wanted Tsunade to go along.

If it doesn't work, let Shizuka return to the village and follow the Third Hokage to the Land of Iron.

But it's not impossible for Tsunade to stay, but what about the selection of guards?

If you want to protect the Hokage, you need to select people who are strong enough and capable of maintaining order. If the guards you choose are too weak, it is not certain who will protect whom when conflicts and fights occur.

"While I am in charge of the village, the more suitable candidates to serve as the Hokage's guards are Sakumo-senpai, Shizuichi, and Orochimaru."

Tsunade paused, then continued, "And Danzo Shimura."

Although she didn't want to mention this person, Tsunade still said it.

Although she mentioned it, Tsunade had no intention of releasing Danzo Shimura, so it would be better to keep this troublemaker in custody.

"Orochimaru can't. He's needed on the front lines. Convening the Five Kage Summit doesn't mean the war will stop."

The Third Hokage shook his head.
