"Nonsense!!!"

Faced with the accusation of the Hokage of Konoha, Sachi, as the head of the delegation, directly rebuked him.

"How much effort has our delegation made for the alliance in recent days? You have also read the letter from Lord Raikage. We have prepared the alliance documents. It is you, Konoha, who has been reluctant to sign the alliance treaty, but now you are questioning our intention of the alliance with the Cloud Ninja?"

The Cloud Village does want to form an alliance with Konoha, after all, both sides have the common enemy of the Rock Village.

But it is also true that they want to destroy Konoha's Jinchuriki plan and snatch the Nine-Tails container, because Konoha is also their potential enemy and needs to be weakened.

These two points seem contradictory, but in fact they are not contradictory at all, because snatching the Nine-Tails container also depends on whether there is an opportunity and whether there is a possibility of success. If there is an opportunity, they dare to snatch it. If there is no opportunity, then they will directly cooperate with Konoha and give priority to dealing with the Rock Village.

No matter which of these two points is achieved, it is worth it for the Cloud Village.

It doesn't matter if Konoha has a bad relationship with Konoha after snatching the Nine-Tails container. The Third Raikage is sure that Konoha dare not declare war on the Hidden Cloud Village while fighting the Hidden Sand Village.

This is a judgment based on the current situation, not so-called blind confidence.

Hearing Sachi's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but fall into a brief silence.

In fact, Konoha didn't want to sign any shitty alliance treaty with the Hidden Cloud Village, but the Konoha high-level officials didn't want to be at odds with the Hidden Cloud Village over this matter, so they showed that they welcomed the arrival of the Hidden Cloud Mission but were not very interested in signing the alliance treaty.

The Konoha high-level officials still remember the murder of the Second Hokage, and are extremely sensitive to the so-called alliance treaty.

Because their mentor went to the Hidden Cloud Village and signed the alliance treaty that was like a death warrant, which led to his final death.

The most ridiculous thing is that the alliance treaty was torn up less than a day after it was signed.

Even after the Third Raikage restored order in the Hidden Cloud Village, he did not try to repair the alliance treaty, nor did he intend to continue the policy of the Second Raikage and Konoha's friendship.

Therefore, it is impossible for the Third Hokage to sign an alliance treaty with the Hidden Cloud Village.

Daring to sign such a thing is disrespectful to the Second Hokage at best, and treason at worst. At that time, there will be countless people in Konoha who will poke his spine, and he may not even be able to sit in the position of Hokage in the future.

"The news I received is that the three Kumo Ninjas wanted to kidnap the Nine-Tails container of our Konoha Village, so Liuyun killed them. I want to know if this was instructed by your delegation? Is it the intention of the Raikage?

Otherwise, Uchiha Liuyun has nothing to do with you, so why did your people kill him?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said this bluntly. If others put a hat on Konoha, he would expose the other party's evil deeds and question them back.

Hearing the question from the Hokage of Konoha, Thatch did not defend himself, because what the other party said was the truth, but the Lightning Country has a set of usual methods to deal with other countries:

"Since the Hokage has determined that the fault lies with us, the Cloud Ninja, and is so blatantly shielding the murderer, then I think there is nothing to talk about between us...

Before coming here, the Raikage has given me full authority, and my opinion represents the opinion of the entire Cloud Village. Now I just want to ask everyone in Konoha...Are you ready to face the anger of the Cloud Village?"

Thatch's words clearly meant to declare war on Konoha!

Seeing the Cloud Ninja's tough attitude, a group of Konoha ninjas instantly became nervous, and everyone turned their eyes to the Third Hokage, waiting for his decision and response.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face really changed again and again at this moment. His expression was both shocked and angry, but there was a rare panic in his eyes!

At this moment, Konoha Village is fighting a bloody battle with the Kingdom of Wind, and it has to take the trouble to resist the invasion of the Kingdom of Earth. How can it have the ability to go to war with the Kingdom of Lightning?

Moreover, the Konoha high-level officials are afraid of the powerful military ninja village of Kumogakure from the bottom of their hearts. That is the psychological shadow left by the crazy pursuit of the Kumogakure rebels when they were young.

At that time, even Shimura Danzo, who usually behaved the most brave and fearless, was frightened by the powerful Kumogakure, and even the second-generation teacher who was so powerful that he was invincible in their hearts was forced to die with the enemy.

No one in the ninja world understands the power and strength of Kumogakure better than them. The Kingdom of Lightning is a powerful country that can truly compete with the Kingdom of Fire!

In Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart, Konoha Village is not sure of winning against the Kumogakure alone, not to mention that they have just officially started a war with the Sand Village...

When he thought of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart wasHe became even more panicked, but pretended to be calm.

"I didn't say it was all the fault of the Kumo Ninja, but I think we should all calm down and investigate the matter thoroughly first..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not directly respond to Thatch's declaration of war, but advised him to calm down.

Hearing the words of the Hokage, Thatch's eyes flashed with a strange gleam.

As the head of the delegation that could go to Konoha, Thatch was naturally well versed in diplomacy. He had a lot of experience in how to control some weak countries. Those who advised you to calm down were almost afraid of you.

The Konoha Hokage said this obviously because he was wary of, or even afraid of, the power of the Hidden Cloud Village!

To deal with some countries that lack confidence, the Kumo Ninja generally only needs to intimidate them a little, and the other party will most likely have to make corresponding compromises because of fear of the power of the Hidden Cloud Village.

There are very few countries that really dare to confront the Land of Thunder, and at present only the Hidden Rock Village of the Land of Earth has this courage.

"Hmph, of course we have to investigate it, but I hope that the Hokage will not favor his own talents. After all, this matter involves the heroes of your village. I find it hard to believe that the Hokage will handle it impartially..."

"I will send a letter to the Hidden Cloud Village and inform the Raikage of this matter. At the same time, I will also wait for the decision and instructions of the Raikage."

Thatch continued to put verbal pressure on the Third Hokage, but Sarutobi Hiruzen was obviously calm at this time, and he did not respond too much to Thatch's words.

Sarutobi Hiruzen just nodded hastily, and then ordered his subordinates to "escort" the delegation back to the village to rest.

After returning to Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen went straight to the Hokage Building. Even at this time, he still did not plan to go home even in the middle of the night.

Entering the Hokage Building with him was Shimura Danzo.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was not sleepy at all, and his heart was full of anger.

"Someone, tell Uchiha Ryuun to come see me right away!"

"Also, have someone go to the Senju clan's territory and bring Kushina over as well."

Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly issued two orders.

"Hey!"

An Anbu captain took the order and disappeared in an instant.
