Chương 229: Chapter 229: The Uchiha Republic?
After a long silence.
Finally Mei said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry, if that's all your proposal, on behalf of Kirigakure, I decline to join your plan."
She was the first to speak, and the others followed her without hesitation.
"Sunagakure will not participate in Konoha's plan."
"The same goes for Iwagakure..."
"Kumogakure will not submit!"
They all spoke with determination and expressed their refusals.
Tsunade narrowed her eyes, emanating a murderous aura: "Have you made a decision?"
Meanwhile, behind her, Itachi activated his Mangekyo, Nagato released his aura, and small papers began to float around Konan...
It was as if they were about to explode at any moment.
"Tsunade, do you intend to attack us?" Onoki snorted in disdain. "Who do you think we are? We are the Five Kages!"
With that said, he also showed his aura without hesitation, ready to move forward.
Rasa, Mei, and the others also prepared themselves without hesitation. The Kage Guards behind them also did not hesitate to show their resolve.
Those present were the most elite forces of the Four Great Shinobi Villages.
"Unless you let Natsuo do it, it's impossible to keep us!" Rasa's voice was deep.
"Then what happens if he intervenes?" Tsunade smiled, then turned his head and said: "Natsuo, are you sure you can eliminate them?"
The next moment, Natsuo opened the door and entered. After entering he scanned those present. "Yes, it won't be difficult."
"It looks like I'm going to die in your hands." Mei smiled wryly. "I never thought I'd worked so hard for so long, but I ended up like this..."
Mei didn't expect that she had paid so much and endured so much humiliation, but in the end she still couldn't escape the end of dying at the hands of this man...
However, she would not flee, much less give in simply because of threats to her life. As leaders of their respective villages, they all had a line that they could not cross.
That line was the interests of the village.
Even Rasa, who had intended to pack up all of Suna's kunoichi and hand them over to Natsuo, will not make concessions on this issue.
In the eyes of Mei, Onoki, Rasa and Yugito, there was an air of resolve.
But at this time, Natsuo suddenly said: "Why do you think you're going to die at my hands?"
Mei instinctively responded: "Because I won't give up, and you..."
"I just said I can kill you, but it doesn't mean I want to kill you." Natsuo looked at Mei with disappointment.
Mei was his wife and had given birth to his child.
Rasa was his father-in-law and had collaborated greatly with Sunagakure.
Onoki is similar, not only is he Kurotsuchi's grandfather, he is also working hard to suppress Iwagakure's resentment and has contributed a lot to the Uchiha clan.
Although Yugito still maintained her resistance, he had invested a lot of effort in bringing her back to Konoha. Would he really have brought her just to kill her?
Why would Natsuo want to kill them?
The Four Kages were stunned. They subconsciously looked at Tsunade.
Tsunade, who usually had a calm face, now looked frustrated and angry. "Natsuo! Can't you cooperate with me a little?!"
Of course, Natsuo did not promise to give his full support to Tsunade regarding the colonization plan.
Although theoretically everyone benefited from it, the shinobi villages would never agree to unite under the direction of Konoha. What's more, this also directly affected the interests of the Daimyos, and the ingrained mentality of this world would not allow them to easily go against them for simple illusory benefits.
Furthermore, if Natsuo suppressed everyone forcefully, he would have to become the leader. He would then have to constantly be in charge of the revolts caused by the shinobi villages as well as the different Daimyos.
The experts in the hands of the Daimyos may not be as powerful as the Kage or even some Jonin, but they control large armies led by samurai. The chaos they would cause would be too much trouble, and in the end Natsuo gains nothing more than the title of leader. He would prefer to continue with his life of luxury and continue 'reviving' the Uchiha clan.
Of course, conquering the new continent can also bring many benefits to him. After all, colonizing means that there will be a confrontation with the existing ruling powers, this will make the shinobi become stronger in the midst of combat...
If conflict is controlled properly this can make their wives, and even their children, stronger. Whether it's the collision of Universes or future conflicts with the Otsutsuki clan, Natsuo needs the people close to him to become stronger.
That's why if Tsunade couldn't convince the other Kages to support her plan, he would do it his way.
The Four Kages looked at Tsunade with strange expressions. It turns out that this was just something she imagined. They thought that Natsuo was the one who would want to unify the shinobi world.
Suddenly, the Four Kages relaxed and regained their self-confidence.
"Tsunade, I think this matter won't work."
"Yes, the Colonization Plan has too many uncertainties. Is it necessary to unify the shinobi world just because of this plan?"
"Kirigakure will definitely not contribute resources. Don't even think about it!"
Not only do they refuse to donate resources, they don't even want to participate now!
Tsunade's expression turned grim, and she glared at Natsuo, blaming him for all of this.
Tsunade had to be patient, explaining again and again the benefits of cooperation, pointing out the potential of the colonization plan and envisioning a future of prosperity...
At the end of it all, the Four Kages were also intrigued by the new continent. Their rejection of Tsunade's proposal was because this would put Konoha above the other villages, thus betraying the interests of their own villages.
If this were a normal negotiation, they would be willing to participate.
In the negotiations that followed, no agreement was reached in the end.
In the end, under Natsuo's insistence, the Five Kage Summit was ended directly and would resume the next day at the Uchiha clan residence.
The Five Kages realized that the decision would now fall in Natsuo's hands, so the best way to influence him is through his wives. So they immediately headed to the Uchiha clan residence and then dispersed without hesitation.
They began to talk seriously with the kunoichi of their respective villages who had married Natsuo, to obtain more benefits for their villages.
The next morning Natsuo summoned all his wives and decided to hold the first meeting of the Uchiha clan.
Due to the large size of the Uchiha clan, several of Natsuo's wives have long assumed control of a large portion of the clan's assets. That is why figures like Yukino, Guren, among others of his wives, represent various interests within the clan structure. However, on this occasion, Natsuo has decided to summon all of his wives.
"Let's vote." Natsuo said seriously. "It's a family meeting, one person one vote..."
"If they have disputes or something they want me to do, they can also put it to a vote...Of course, whether what you ask is something I can do or not is another matter."
The women looked at each other, sizing up their 'competitors', but in the end they all nodded in agreement.
And so they began to discuss the next matters.
"Record ballot or secret ballot?"
"Of course it will be by name. We should all be frank and express our opinions openly, shouldn't we?"
"I think we should make it anonymous. Some people might not want certain things to be said openly by the sisters."
"I agree, anonymous voting would be better."
More than a family gathering, this seemed like a political assembly.
In other words, there is no difference between itself and a political assembly.
In fact, there were hardly any matters that required Natsuo's intervention. Even without mentioning personal matters, with the resources that the Uchiha clan allocated to each wife, they had everything they needed to achieve what they wanted.
What really needed a vote were the issues that affected the various shinobi villages and even the world as a whole.
After arguing for a long time, Tsunade, Mei and other wives suddenly realized. The Uchiha family reunion could directly determine the course of the shinobi world...
After all, the Uchiha clan was as rich as a nation and its military might was the most formidable in the world. Only Natsuo had the ability to bring the entire shinobi community under his rule, not to mention the numerous high-ranking kunoichi among his wives.
There were more Kage-level powerhouses in the Uchiha clan than in any shinobi village.
With so much economic and military power, if this kind of influence couldn't determine the fate of the shinobi world, what other power could?
Natsuo established a system similar to a republic using his wives as representatives of the different interests of the shinobi world, and he would act as the highest authority of this system.
Natsuo knew that if he did not want to dominate all the large shinobi villages by force, he must give his wives enough authority to represent their villages. At the end of the day, one way or another, the current Kages are either his wives or are relatives of his wives.
The results of the Uchiha clan family meeting left people like Mei, Rasa, Onoki, and others silent.
Especially during the first meeting, Temari raised the issue of selling the environmental modifier, explaining the precarious living conditions of the Land of Wind. Her original intention was to use the refusal to later propose that the Uchiha Clan Chamber of Commerce intervene more in Sunagakure.
But, while people were still getting used to the voting process, the proposal won the majority of votes and passed to Natsuo.
Natsuo explained that because this technology involved many core secrets of the Uchiha clan it could not be sold to Sunagakure. But he still promised to provide help to improve the living environment of Sunagakure.
