Chapter 227: Chapter 227: Five Kage Summit
The joining of Sanzu Amado to the Uchiha clan has made the different research projects advance by leaps and bounds. After joining Katasuke, they managed to create a Chakra-powered reactor.
In addition, the Gelel Stone was recovered by Itachi, as for Haido, he was easily suppressed by Itachi and his team. Then, through different interrogation techniques, they obtained all the information he knew about the Western Continent.
With the information obtained, they better understood the distribution of powers within the Western Continent. The village of Temujin, which was the closest to the Shinobi Continent, turned out to be a part isolated from the Western Continent by an immense mountain range. Because they were isolated from the rest of the continent they were not very powerful, when Haido discovered this he decided to destroy them to take over the Gelel vein.
After analyzing the information, the members of the new Akatsuki organization have united to send an exploration ship to the Western Continent.
The Hokage Guard Platoon of the Fourth Hokage who mastered the Flying Thunder Formation Technique, have joined as part of the exploration crew, using their technique they plan to maintain a constant transport of personnel and materials to the outpost.
Once they manage to teleport someone back to report the situation, the colonization plan is considered to have had a preliminary success.
Not only has the Colonization Plan made great progress, Amado has also helped a lot in the research and development of the Land of Snow's environmental modification machine. Using the chakra reactor as a power source, the environmental transformation machine has finally succeeded.
Natsuo was initially worried that drastically changing the climate would destroy the ecological balance of the planet, but after Amado's explanation he realized that it didn't matter. The Climate of the Shinobi World is very strange and the logic of Natsuo's previous life cannot really be applied.
After that, Natsuo had no more objections, and the Land of Snow has already been transformed into a land as warm as spring thanks to the environmental modification machine. Although it consumes a lot of energy, the chakra reactor is enough to transform a country.
The Shinobi World was amazed when they learned of the transformation of the Land of Snow.
The eyes of the leaders of the Great Shinobi Villages turned red with greed. If it weren't for the fear of Natsuo, they might have already sent a large number of shinobi to snatch all the technology from the Land of Snow.
However as the news continued to spread, Sunagakure could no longer sit still. Rasa acted decisively and personally led a team of Elders to visit the Land of Snow, then offered great rewards to obtain a similar machine.
Temari also begged Natsuo, even without caring that it was her first time, and became very bold in her actions...
Although afterward she had to spend several days in bed, but Sunagakure needed the environmental modification machine more than the Land of Snow.
Meanwhile the hidden currents of the shinobi world were stirring.
Until a few days later, Hokage Guard Platoon returned to the Shinobi Continent using the Flying Thunder Formation Technique, bringing a lot of information and materials...
The peace plan of the new Akatsuki Organization was activated instantly!
The Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, on behalf of the Hokage, invited the leaders of the Five Great Shinobi Villages to hold the Five Kage Summit.
"The era of chaos in the shinobi world is about to end!" Tsunade said firmly.
...
To emphasize impartiality, the Five Kage Summits are often held in the shinobi world's only neutral power, the Land of Iron.
However, this time, it was Tsunade who suggested that the Five Kage Summit be held in Konohagakure...
The choice of location left everyone silent.
The various Kages sighed softly, their eyes filled with solemnity. But no one refused.
They didn't know what Tsunade had in mind, but the environmental transformation machine had upset the balance of power in the shinobi world.
It has little meaning for Konoha, but is extremely important for countries with extreme environments such as the Land of Wind and the Land of Rain, and can instantly affect their national power.
They had to come, they had no other option.
"Even if we have to pay a high price, we must obtain the environmental transformation machine!" Rasa said to Gaara and Baki beside him.
This time, he took them with him to serve as the Kage Guard.
Needless to say, Baki has always been a fan of Kazekage. And Gaara was sent back to Sunagakure after being revived by Natsuo earlier. He doesn't have a tailed beast on his body, but he can still display combat power close to the Kage level...
Furthermore, by eliminating the weakness of a Jinchuriki, he had become the strongest under the Kazekage Rasa.
"I'm afraid it's not easy to achieve our goal." Gaara sighed, showing a calmer and gentler side than he usually had.
Since Rasa had become the strongest Kazekage, the village's tolerance towards Gaara had increased considerably.
Especially since Shukaku disappeared, Rasa no longer needed to force Gaara. Furthermore, Baki and others took the initiative to reveal Yashamaru's sacrifice, which greatly reduced Gaara's hostility...
"No matter how difficult it is, it has to be achieved!" Rasa said decisively. "I have already prepared enough kunoichi in the village, even if it means weakening the village and being disgraced, I will obtain this environmental transformation machine from Natsuo!"
Gaara's eye twitched.
Send women, offer girls, all for benefits...
You're right, that really is disgraceful and humiliating.
But Baki looked fanatical: "No, Kazekage-sama, the village trusts in your judgment and your sacrifices. We have all seen what you have done for us..."
"You are really thinking about the future of Sunagakure. If anyone dares to look down on you, it would be like looking down on our entire village."
His eyes were full of murderous intent: "Such a person is not worthy of being a Suna Shinobi at all!"
"No, he doesn't even deserve to live."
Rasa's actions really stirred up feelings of humiliation. This time, Rasa was willing to give it his all. Even before leaving, he organized a promotion exam, demanding the participation of all the kunoichi in the village.
Rasa even forced some married kunoichi, with good looks and strength, to divorce, and then wait for orders from the village.
Basically, he stopped treating kunoichi as human beings and regarded them as objects.
If it weren't for the reputation he has built, all of Sunagakure might have rebelled.
Even though these orders seemed ridiculous, Sunagakure still accepted them.
Die-hard fans like Baki sought to justify Rasa's actions, highlighting the concept of a shinobi's sacrifice for profit.
"No, they are all partners in the village, and I also know that my actions are indeed not good." Rasa sighed softly, her eyes full of determination. "But I'm willing to pay that price for Sunagakure."
"Kazekage-sama!" Baki looked at him with admiration and tears in his eyes.
"It's okay, this is my responsibility as Kazekage..."
They both shared a strong bond of camaraderie.
Meanwhile, Gaara watched this nonsense in silence.
As one of the few shinobi who knew Rasa's true secrets, he suddenly became curious about how his followers would react if they knew the truth about him...
...
In fact, it wasn't just Rasa who was worried.
The other Kages were also eager for the Five Kage Summit.
However, Konoha's actions, or rather lack thereof, confused everyone...
In theory, the environmental reformer would be of little value to Konoha, which was already a great power with rich lands. It would be normal for them to just destroy it instead of letting Sunagakure be able to obtain it.
Furthermore, Konoha's unilateral decision to choose the location for the Five Kage Summit also left everyone puzzled.
"But no matter what, we have to shoulder this responsibility." Onoki took a deep breath and walked into the door of the conference hall.
"Let's go see what Konoha is up to."
Rasa, Terumi Mei, and Nii Yugito, who was just released by Natsuo, are all here.
The style of the meeting room was similar to that of the Land of Iron.
Onoki is followed by his son Kitsuchi and Akatsuchi.
Behind Rasa are Gaara and Baki.
Behind Terumi Mei are Chojuro and Ao.
Behind Nii Yugito were Darui and Mabui.
The atmosphere in the room was extremely tense. After Onoki sat in her place, she scanned the others with her gaze.
Except for Yugito who asked Darui and Mabui about the situation in Kumogakure, the others did not say a word.
"Where are the people from Konoha, haven't they come yet?" Onoki said in a deep voice.
"Hokage-sama is already on her way." A Konoha guard whispered in a low voice.
"Really? No wonder Konoha, being the strongest, is so arrogant." Mei said disdainfully. "Does he rely on Natsuo's power and no longer take us into account?"
"It is normal that people with power have the right to be arrogant." Rasa said calmly. "Not everyone is like Senju Hashirama."
