****************
The Fourth Raikage's orders were faithfully conveyed.
The four hidden villages successively received the letters sent by him.
In the Land of Earth, Iwagakure:
The 79-year-old Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki closed his eyes and pondered after reading the Fourth Raikage's invitation.
As the oldest Kage in the ninja world today, he had more experience as a ninja than any current Hokage.
He also had many shady dealings.
Regarding the Akatsuki organization, Ōnoki had dealt with them many times.
He had even hired them to complete some dubious tasks.
Sasori's performance of the Hundred Puppet Show, which once destroyed a small country, was commissioned by Iwagakure.
And after his apprentice Deidara defected from the village to join them, he did not issue a missing status to him.
For this organization, Ōnoki had always harbored thoughts of using them, as they only needed some remuneration and he could hire powerful ninjas.
The other five countries naturally could see through his calculations.
However, the current Ōnoki had also realized that something was amiss.
The Four-Tails and Five-Tails Jinchūriki in their village had also disappeared for a while, with no news received so far.
But now, Ōnoki knew in his heart that they were probably taken away by the Akatsuki organization.
"These Akatsuki fellows, what are they planning..."
Boom!
The door of the office was rudely pushed open, and a youthful and beautiful figure ran in excitedly.
"Old man, I heard from my father that there will be a Five Kage Summit?"
The newcomer was Ōnoki's granddaughter, Kurotsuchi, known as the future Tsuchikage.
Seeing his granddaughter's lack of proper etiquette, Ōnoki also had a headache.
"Kurotsuchi, I'm the Tsuchikage after all. Can't you abide by the rules and knock on the door first when you come here?"
Kurotsuchi's talent was excellent, and she also possessed the [Lava Release].
But growing up alongside Deidara as a child, she had developed as a lawless character.
This made Ōnoki, who regarded her as his successor, feel that she was too uncontrollable.
"Old man, don't pay attention to the details. Let me be your escort, and I'll participate in the Five Kage Summit!"
Kurotsuchi directly ignored Ōnoki's words and began to nag persistently.
In the end, Ōnoki raised his hand in surrender.
"Stop, stop, I promise to let you participate in the Five Kage Summit, but you're not allowed to cause trouble, do you hear?"

In the Land of Water, Kirigakure:
The newly appointed Fifth Mizukage Terumi Mei also received a letter from the Cloud Village and gave it to her two guards to review.
"Tell me your opinion?"
As the senior advisor, Ao took the lead and said solemnly.
"I think we should participate. The Akatsuki organization not only has Hoshigaki Kisame but also has a lot to do with that person."
Terumi Mei's eyes narrowed; she knew who Ao was referring to.
The Fourth Mizukage Yagura had once been controlled by a mysterious person for a long time, acting recklessly in the village, even creating the Bloody Mist.
It wasn't until Ao used his Byakugan that he noticed the traces of genjutsu in Yagura's body.
This incident had always been a shame for Kirigakure.
The dignified Kage of a village had been manipulated for so many years.
If word got out, they would be laughed at by the other four major countries.
After careful investigation, they finally discovered that the person who controlled the Mizukage had an unclear relationship with the Akatsuki organization.
This summit was just a good opportunity for them to figure it out.
"Chōjūrō, what do you think?"
Terumi Mei looked at the shy boy beside her.
Chōjūrō, the current wielder of the twin swords Hiramekarei, was a ninja whom Terumi Mei was very optimistic about.
"No matter what Mizukage-sama chooses, I will stand firmly by your side!"
Chōjūrō blushed, only managing to speak after a long pause.
"Is that so?" Terumi Mei's mouth twitched as she looked into the distance.
"A Five Kage Summit? I hope I can see some handsome men who shine in front of me, maybe that way I can finally get married..."
"Who would dare to marry you?" Ao couldn't help muttering.
"Ao! Do you want to die?!"
"Forgive me, Mizukage-sama!"

In the Land of Wind, Sunagakure:
Gaara was one of the easiest to persuade.
What he had always advocated was uniting the power of the five hidden villages to jointly fight against the Akatsuki organization.
Especially after his own capture and rescue, even though Sunagakure no longer had a Jinchūriki, he was very concerned about the Akatsuki's activities.
After reading the letter, Gaara immediately called Kankurō and asked him to act as his bodyguard.
At the same time, he also sent a message to Konoha, asking the Hokage to bring Temari with her.
**********
Meanwhile, next to a waterfall in the back mountains of Konoha:
Jiraiya, Colt, and Konan were watching Yugito teach Naruto the key to controlling the power of the tailed beasts.
Originally, Colt didn't intend to come, but Yugito said that Naruto was likely to go berserk in the process of controlling the tailed beast's power.
With her current strength, even with Jiraiya, it would be impossible to control a rampaging Nine-Tails, so she called him over as backup.
As for Konan, they let her come out to change her brooding mood.
After receiving blow after blow, Jiraiya was afraid that this disciple of his would also do something rash.
But for now, she appeared to just blankly follow his words.
"The key to being a perfect Jinchūriki is to communicate with the tailed beast, so that you can use the tailed beast's Chakra without any scruples, without worrying about being eroded by its mind and falling into a rampaging state."
Naruto raised his hand as if he were a student asking a question:
"How can I be in sync with the tailed beast?"
Yugito thought about it for a while, then answered uncertainly, "Everyone's experience is different. The character of each tailed beast is different, and the methods used are also different."
"What about you, big sis?" Naruto asked.
Yugito fell silent and glanced aggrievedly at Colt, who was whispering with Jiraiya.
She could hardly say that she was beaten by Colt along with the Two-Tails, and then manipulated like a puppet.
While she and her tailed beast were already in a sort of understanding coexistence, that treatment made their relationship even better.
However, she never wanted to mention that dark history again.
"Ahem!"
"My experience is not relevant to you," Yugito changed the subject calmly.
"The most important thing you need to do is to put aside your resentment towards the tailed beast and try to accept the Nine-Tails."
"Similarly, you also need to let the Nine-Tails open its heart to you completely, so that the Chakra of both of you can be perfectly integrated."
The existence of Chakra was very mysterious.
Through Chakra, one can reflect a person's inner emotions, character, and thoughts at that time.
This was why the Chakra of tailed beasts usually corrupts the emotions of Jinchūrikis, making them tyrannical.
Because the tailed beasts have been sealed by humans for so long, it would be strange if their hearts were not full of resentment.
Naruto listened to the advice from Yugito and fell silent.
