Chapter 390: Hokage and Raikage Hit It Off

When the information transaction was over, the few people in the Hokage's office who were still smiling suddenly became serious and serious.

"Hokage, I came to Konoha. In addition to getting information about the perfect Jinchuuriki, I also want to do something important. I think you should have thought of it."

When it comes to forming an alliance, it's better to talk about it as early as possible.

The Third Raikage had no intention of hiding it, and expressed his intention to form an alliance very directly.

"Raikage."

The Third Hokage thought for a moment and said, "Jingyi already mentioned your intention to me when he returned to the village. Coincidentally, I have plans to form an alliance with your village."

"It looks like the alliance talks between our two villages will go well."

The Third Raikage smiled.

The Cloud Ninja Village wanted to find a reliable and powerful ally. Coincidentally, Konoha thought the same way, and they hit it off.

Originally, the Cloud Ninja Village had no plans to form an alliance.

After all, Yun Ninja Village itself is already strong enough, so forming an alliance is of little significance to them.

But as Konoha's strength became stronger and stronger, the third generation Raikage began to pay attention to this issue.

Before the First Ninja War, Senju Tobirama wanted to form an alliance with Kumo Ninja Village. Why can't Konoha form an alliance with Kumo Ninja Village now?

Both villages are strong, and Suna Ninja Village has become half of Konoha. The most important factor is that the geographical location of the two villages is too far apart. The saying of distant friendship and close attack is applicable in any world.

In the absence of direct conflicts of interest, the alliance between the two villages will only be a strong alliance.

The Third Raikage said:

"The Fire Country is rich in resources and has good business development. Our Cloud Ninja Village is not bad either. After forming an alliance, we can cooperate in many aspects, whether it is military or economic. This will be beneficial to both villages."

This is also the fundamental reason why the Third Hokage and others prefer the Cloud Ninja Village.

Combined with Iwa Ninja Village, Konoha needs to in turn promote the development of Iwa Ninja Village. It is different from Yun Ninja Village. Both parties can cooperate with each other and neither party needs to rely on others.

It's enough to have a Suna Ninja Village that is dragging its feet. If Iwa Ninja Village is involved, I can't imagine what Konoha's economy will be like.

As for the threat of war?

The Third Hokage and others do not think that any village in the ninja world would be willing to start a war with Kumo Ninja Village.

Therefore, the threat of war was simply forgotten by the Third Hokage.

"The rich resources can drive the commercial development of Yun Ninja Village. The alliance between Konoha and Yun Ninja Village can definitely bring the military and economy of both parties to a higher level."

Talking about this, the Third Hokage, who originally had a colorless face, couldn't help but smile.

There are too many benefits to forming an alliance with Yun Ninja Village, otherwise Senju Tobirama would not have gone to Yun Ninja Village in person to seek an alliance. It was a pity that he was unlucky and bumped into the gold and silver brothers who launched a coup.

Without these two brothers carrying out a coup, even if a ninja war breaks out, it will never come so early.

The damage to Konoha wouldn't be that severe.

"However, the alliance between Konoha and the Cloud Ninja Village may irritate other villages. This is something we need to pay attention to."

Mito Kadoyan gave a small reminder to the two leaders who found each other more pleasing to the eye the more they looked at each other.

Alliances are good, but you also need to consider the implications.

Not to mention Sand Ninja Village, Iwa Ninja Village and Mist Ninja Village will definitely be greatly stimulated.

"Your concern is correct, but I feel that if two villages form an alliance, even if it irritates other villages, it won't change anything."

In this regard, the Third Raikage is very confident:

"The Sand Ninja Village can barely be considered a member of Konoha's side. The internal fighting in the Mist Ninja Village has not ended yet. Judging from Konoha's war potential, Ohnoki dares to attack us?"

"What Raikage said makes sense. Sand Ninja Village is not our enemy."

The Third Hokage gave Minato a reassuring look, and then continued: "Excluding the Sand Ninja Village, I don't know how long the internal fighting in the Mist Ninja Village will continue. The Iwa Ninja Village alone will never dare to provoke us."

The strength of the Iwa Ninja Village is pretty good. If they directly fight against Konoha and Kumo Ninja Villages, the strongest of the two major ninja villages, the Iwa Ninja Village that can be defeated will definitely cry for their parents.

The Third Hokage believed that as long as Onoki was not stupid, he would endure it even if he felt uncomfortable.

"Hahaha, the Hokage is right."

The Third Raikage used to dislike the Third Hokage, but now he is so pleasing to his eyes. This old guy is so good at causing trouble.

You are affectionate and I am interested. It is difficult for the two villages to form an alliance and not go smoothly.

Let’s hope so.

Mito Monoyan nodded and did not say any more unpleasant words.

But his eyes subconsciously looked towards Jingyi's position.

Jingyi's seat was empty.

He did not attend today's meeting.

The reason is that he is very busy and the ANBU needs him to deal with too many things, so he will not participate in high-level meetings and all the discussions will depend on the Hokage's office.

Whether it was about perfecting the Jinchuuriki intelligence or forming an alliance between the two villages, he, Hyuga Shizuichi, didn't even bother to get involved.

"I hope I'm overthinking it."

The alliance between the two villages cannot be determined by just a few words when the senior officials sit together. For the next period of time, the Third Raikage will need to stay in Konoha and will not leave until the two villages become true allies.

During this period, both parties will conduct multiple rounds of meetings and negotiations.

"Didn't you go to the meeting?"

After finishing the matters at Konoha Hospital, Tsunade returned home. She opened the door and saw Shizuichi lying on the sofa reading a book. She suddenly showed a surprised expression.

She knew that the village was going to form an alliance with the Kumogakure.

It was just that Tsunade didn't want to get involved. With the idea of ​​not wanting to participate and making more pocket money, Tsunade went to the Konoha Hospital every day to report, just because she was worried that the Third Hokage would pull her to sit in the conference room.

Tsunade avoided it herself. What she didn't expect was that Jingyi was still resting at home at this time.

"I didn't participate."

Jingyi raised the book in his hand: "I told them that there are many things in the Anbu, and I need to deal with them personally. As for the alliance, they can talk about it themselves."

"So, you are busy hiding at home to read books?"

Tsunade's forehead had a few black lines.

Your reason is a bit nonsense.

"I bet the old man knows that you are hiding at home to rest."

Isn't this obvious?

Jingyi rolled his eyes at Tsunade.

Actually, the Third Hokage wanted him to attend the meeting, but he was rejected by Jingyi. The two villages formed an alliance, and the meeting would take many days. He would get a sore throat from talking so much every day. Jingyi would go crazy to attend such a meeting.

Wouldn't it be better to just stay at home and rest?

If it doesn't work, he can go to the Anbu to handle some official business.

As for how to talk, let the F4 group play freely.

In addition to being lazy, Jingyi also doesn't want to take the blame.
