Chapter 591 Reactions from Various Villages
Chapter 591 Reactions from Various Villages
Yunyin Village
Lei Ying was sitting upright in his spacious office, which had just been renovated.
When he received the official letter from Konoha Village, his anger was instantly ignited.
He slammed the official letter in his hand onto the solid wood desk in front of him.
With a loud "bang," the entire room seemed to tremble.
Fortunately, the Raikage managed to restrain his power this time; otherwise, the sturdy table would probably have broken in two on the spot.
"Where did Minato Namikaze even come from?! Wasn't that guy supposed to have died eleven years ago?"
Raikage's eyes widened, and he roared in disbelief.
It's important to understand that if we compare the Raikage to a brave warrior with super-fast movement, powerful attacks, and extremely high defense...
Minato Namikaze, on the other hand, is more like an assassin with maxed-out evasion skills and the ability to traverse space.
Despite their vastly different styles, they share a crucial commonality.
Their abilities are all anti-personnel Noble Phantasms.
For ordinary ninjas, encountering either of these two powerful figures was almost tantamount to the end of their lives.
Moreover, under normal circumstances, trapping these two people is harder than climbing to heaven.
The Cloud Hidden AB duo once had a direct confrontation with Minato.
That fierce battle remains fresh in the Raikage's memory; he has to admit the immense strength that Minato Namikaze displayed.
It's worth noting that the two sides ended in a draw in that encounter!
At this moment, Tu Tai, standing to the side, heard Raikage's words and said in a solemn voice with a serious expression:
"We are too far away from Konoha. Even if Minato's supposed death a few years ago was just a carefully planned hoax, it's not entirely impossible."
Immediately afterwards, Tu Tai made an even more alarming prediction:
"But there's an even worse possibility: perhaps Konoha has already mastered a secret technique capable of resurrecting the dead!"
Upon hearing this, the Raikage, who had initially harbored a glimmer of hope, instantly calmed down.
Indeed, if Minato had merely faked his death while injured, it might have been a stroke of good luck for the other ninja villages.
But if Konoha really gained the ability to revive, the consequences would be unimaginable!
The Raikage hesitated for a moment, then questioned:
"I don't think so. If they really had such miraculous abilities, why didn't they revive Hashirama Senju?"
That's true. Back then, Hashirama Senju could sweep across the entire ninja world single-handedly.
If this legendary figure were to be reborn, then all the other ninja villages, except for Konoha, would probably have to live with their tails between their legs.
Tu Tai had clearly given this matter considerable thought beforehand, and now he analyzed it methodically:
"We can only truly understand this after our people meet the Fourth Hokage in person."
"If he has been faking his death all these years and has never appeared in public, then according to the timeline, his age must have increased."
"But if his appearance remains unchanged, it means that they were most likely resurrected recently."
Upon hearing this, Raikage nodded slightly in agreement:
"Hmm, that makes sense. In that case, let's send hope."
Not long ago, these three ninja villages joined forces to launch a fierce invasion of Konoha, and recently they have even started a fierce economic war.
Given the current tense and complex situation, it is naturally inconvenient for the leaders of various ninja villages to go directly to Konoha.
hope is a rare talent in Kumogakure.
Not only is he proficient in illusion and skilled in healing, but he also possesses keen and extraordinary perception.
He can be described as an all-around ninja who possesses a variety of rare skills.
What's even more remarkable is that he is quick-witted and exceptionally intelligent, and has always been regarded as Raikage's right-hand man.
Therefore, appointing him as the representative on this mission to Konoha is undoubtedly the most appropriate choice.
After all, many crucial pieces of information and subtle details require a ninja with exceptional sensory abilities like his to discern and judge them more accurately.
……
at the same time.
In the distant Iwagakure village.
A somber atmosphere filled the Tsuchikage's office.
Onoki stared at the official letter from Konoha in his hand with a look of suspicion on his face, pondering to himself.
If this official letter hadn't been sent through Konoha's official channels, he probably would have doubted its authenticity.
Ever since Iwagakure and Kumogakure joined forces to impose economic sanctions on Konoha, Onoki has been thinking about what measures Konoha would take in retaliation.
However, to his utter surprise, Konoha Village reinstated the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze!
This was completely unexpected, because everyone knew that Minato Namikaze had passed away eleven years ago!
The explanation given by Konoha is that the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, was seriously injured during the Nine-Tails' attack and has been recuperating ever since, which is why he has disappeared from public view until now.
Onoki didn't believe a single word of it.
However, if this statement is true, then it would be the best-case scenario.
After all, if Konoha truly possessed the ability to resurrect the dead, then other ninja villages would likely be in serious trouble.
Unfortunately, there is currently almost no specific information available about this matter.
No matter how hard Onoki racked his brains, he could only watch helplessly as things unfolded.
As for the invitation from Konoha Village, requesting Iwagakure Village to send someone to discuss post-war matters.
Onoki knew very well that he could never go there in person, and the village's jinchūriki were even less likely to go.
After all, the two sides had just gone through a fierce battle, and their relationship was still very tense.
Sending people there rashly at this time could easily trigger new conflicts.
After careful consideration, Onoki realized that there were only two suitable candidates left: one was Hiroto, and the other was Bunya.
Huang Tu's strength was indeed formidable, but his character was too honest and kind, making him clearly not adept at handling such complex, ever-changing, and unpredictable diplomatic affairs.
In comparison, Wenya is much more agile and quick-witted, and may be better suited for this mission.
Onoki stood by the window, his brows furrowed, deep in thought.
A moment later, he turned around and shouted into the shadows behind him, "Help!"
As he finished speaking, a dark figure appeared like a ghost.
He knelt on one knee and respectfully asked, "What are your orders, Lord Tsuchikage?"
Onoki narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice, "Go and call Wenya here."
"Yes!"
The member of the secret service responded and vanished from the spot in a flash.
