Iron Country.

Outside the capital, in a giant castle.

"Is everything ready?"

Mifune looked at the dozen subordinates wearing samurai armor standing in front of him and asked with a very serious look.

"Yes, Mifune-sama, all necessary preparations are in place!"

These people also immediately bowed their heads and responded.

"Well, very good. The next few days are the most important period. Everyone must be more vigilant. Each team and team leader must conduct 24-hour patrols. The investigation in the border area must also be raised to a higher level.

do you understand!?"

"yes!"

Generally speaking, there are no accidents in the Five Shadows Conference.

But sometimes I am afraid that some people are not clear-headed.

Although this is a matter between the five major ninja villages, if a problem occurs in their Iron Country, it will easily affect their Iron Country. This is a development that Mifune absolutely does not want to see. Naturally, he has to deal with it in all aspects.

Be careful!

Especially when he thinks that the Fourth Tsuchikage in Iwagakure Village is the famous Uchiha Shoji, Mifune is an extra headache. He defected from Konoha Hidden Village and was hanged three years ago.

After a meal with Sunagakure, the ruthless man from Kumogakure Village was severely beaten some time ago!

The three ships may be hoping that nothing will happen to the Five Shadows Conference this time!

Even though Mifune is very confident in his own strength, he still has to choose his target!

Uchiha Shoji is such a ruthless person.

This is someone Mifune never wants to mess with.

This meeting of the Five Shadows must be more tense and exciting than any other meeting in the past. It must be said that this iron country warrior general is really walking on thin ice.

Moreover, as a small country that can be regarded as sandwiched between the Kingdom of Earth and the Kingdom of Thunder, to be honest, Mifune was under great pressure during this period of time. He may also be the kind of person who is eager to see the end of the war.

The so-called absolute neutrality.

It really depends on the person and the occasion, and it was only after Mifune led many of his subordinates to make almost all arrangements related to the Five Shadows Conference.

The five shadows also arrived at about the same time.

"Mifune-sama, the Fourth Raikage-sama has arrived!"

As the closest country to the Iron Country.

Moreover, the Fourth Raikage happens to be in the frontline position.

After receiving the corresponding news and arranging a series of frontline defense tasks, the fourth generation Raikage set off.

While the other four Kage were still some distance away from the Kingdom of Iron, the Fourth Raikage came to the Kingdom of Iron a long time in advance.

As soon as they crossed the border, there were dedicated Iron Kingdom warriors as guides, who led the Fourth Raikage and his three people directly towards this giant castle, which was far away from the capital. The reason why they did not put the Five Shadows away

In the capital city.

That’s not to say I should neglect the Five Shadows.

But considering that if the negotiations do not go smoothly and the Five Shadows start a war directly, the castle will be destroyed if it is destroyed. It will not be rebuilt at the worst. But if there is a fight in the capital, it will be an absolute disaster for the Iron Kingdom!

!

It was an unfolding that Mifune never wanted to see.

It is already a small country, and if its capital is vandalized again, their Iron Country will collapse directly.

As for the arrangements for the three-ship general of the Iron Country.

The Fourth Raikage who was the first to arrive did not have any dissatisfaction. In the final analysis, it was just a place for negotiation, and there was no need to ask for too much.

"Welcome, Lord Raikage!"

Mifune also came to the main entrance of the castle in person and looked at the Fourth Raikage with a cold expression on his face, even though he said nothing.

But just from this expression, Mifune could see the current mood of the Fourth Raikage.

This is also inevitable.

You must know that in this war, the losses suffered by Kumoyin Village were the most tragic since the village was founded. Even the third generation Raikage died in the previous three battles, or the longer-term rebellion of the Golden Horn and Silver Horn brothers led to

The severity of the Second Raikage's death in battle was far less severe than the current war!

After all, in those two battles, no matter how heavy the losses in Yunyin Village were, the opponent was not much better.

But this time it’s different!

Iwagakure Village easily defeated Kumogakure Village without any effort. The number of Kumo-nin casualties and prisoners was countless. The fall of the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki severely damaged the entire Kumogakure Village. This four-year-old

It was only natural for Dai Leiying to show such an expression.

"Well, have the other shadows arrived?"

After all, Mifune can be regarded as the person in charge of a country, and in terms of strength, he is at least a quasi-shadow. When he was young, he had the experience of fighting against Sanshouyu Hanzo, known as the demigod. Although it was a disastrous defeat, there was no doubt that throughout the whole

He still has a high reputation in the ninja world!

The Fourth Raikage Ai also needs to give Mifune a certain degree of respect.

"Lord Raikage is the first to arrive. The other four Lords are still on the way. Please come in first!"

After all, it's still only January.

The Iron Country is located in the northernmost region of the continent.

This is a country with cold temperatures.

When winter comes, there will be several heavy snowfalls almost every year. This time the Five Shadows Conference was held, it happened to coincide with a sudden heavy snowfall in the Iron Kingdom, and the entire country was covered in a layer of silver!

"Um!"

The Fourth Raikage Ai also nodded slightly.

Immediately afterwards, under the leadership of Mifune, they stepped into the interior of the castle. Two guards followed closely behind the Fourth Raikage. One was a tall, short-haired woman with a huge chest. She was the Fourth Raikage.

One of Raikage's exclusive secretaries, Samui can be said to be responsible for the appearance of Cloud Hidden Village in the original work, and he is also a jounin.

Another man with the same short blond hair is the Kumo ninja named Nozomi who also appeared as the Raikage guard in the Five Kage Council in the original work!

Although only sixteen or seventeen years old!

But he is an elite Jonin who is good at using genjutsu, medical ninjutsu, and has a superhuman level in sensing jutsu!

Along with Darui, who died at the hands of Shoji, he is the genius of the next generation of Kumo ninja that the Fourth Raikage values ​​the most!

And he is very wise and calm!

The fourth generation Raikage's previous plan was to make Darui the next generation Raikage and make Nozomi the next Dodai!

This was the fourth generation Raikage's plan for his ninja village for the next forty years! However, everything was ruined!

Destroyed by a ninja village in the hands of one person!

Be it Darui, Dodai, Yukito, or Kirabi, these four people almost all died because of the general. Even though Dodai was captured by Itachi, it did not hinder the Fourth Raikage.

Ai put this account on the head of the general.

Who made Shoji the fourth Tsuchikage of Iwagakure Village?

"Lord Raikage, please be more restrained. This meeting of the Five Shadows is very important to our Kumogakure Village. We must rely on the power of Konoha, Sunagakure, and even Kirigakure as much as possible to let us Kumogakure

The village can win back some more benefits!”

Step into this castle.

As the time for the Five Kage Meeting drew closer, Nozomi could clearly sense that the fourth generation Raikage's heart was becoming more and more restless.

what is the reason.

Xi naturally knows it very well.

It is simply because of the upcoming Fourth Tsuchikage - Uchiha Shoji. From the bottom of his heart, Nozomi also resents the general. Not to mention the heavy casualties in this war in his own village, Darui alone is Nozomi.

As a close friend, Nozomi has plenty of reasons to resent Shoji, but as the best among the younger generation of Kumo ninjas, Nozomi is also a rational one.

He also understands how difficult and critical the situation that his Ninja Village is facing now is!

To put it bluntly, without the timely assistance of Konoha and Sunagakure, the Iwagakure army would have already reached Kumogakure in the past few days, and whether the own Ninja Village could withstand the full-scale attack of Iwagakure!

?

The answer is obviously no!

A total of six thousand Kumo ninjas were lost on the front line, and after Todai-san, Darui, and Yukito-san were killed one after another, and after the fall, the fourth generation Raikage of his own family was also seriously injured, and Kirabi-san was also injured.

The Fourth Tsuchikage of Iwagakure Village was personally suppressed and captured!

From the fact that Yukito-san can be controlled by Uchiha General and then driven to fight against their Kumo ninja, it can be concluded that Kirabi-san who fell into the hands of Iwa ninja will definitely have the same result, even if

It is said that one pair of Mangekyō Sharingan may not be able to control two tailed beasts, but there are two other pairs of Mangekyō Sharingan!
