“This is…”

Ginkaku glanced at him with his peripheral vision, his eyes suddenly bulged: “Kin… Kinkaku!”

“What did you do to Kinkaku!”

“Don’t worry, he’s not dead yet.” Jing’s eyes were still calm, “As long as you release Lord Hokage and leave Konoha, I will spare his life.”

“Don’t try to scare me with such words!” Ginkaku yelled out of control, the sword cut into Tobirama’s neck, blood gushed out.

“Ginkaku, I advise you to stay calm, if you hit too hard, this matter will end in a fight.” Jing’s eyes turned cold, and there was a hint of sharpness in his words.

“Not only that, your two tailed beasts are under my control at the moment, and are currently running towards your Cloud Village.” Jing tried to look at Yinjiao, but the cunning guy refused to give him a chance, “The only order I gave them was… to destroy the Cloud Village!”

“You’re lying, how can you have such power!”

“That’s the fact. If you don’t believe it, why don’t we wait here for half a day to see if your village will become a ruin?”

Yinjiao’s breathing became much more rapid, his eyes flickered constantly, and he was obviously in a great dilemma.

The pair of black horns… are undoubtedly Kinjiao’s, whether it is blood or the remaining faint chakra breath, it is certain that it is Kinjiao’s!

Kinjiao, who usually cherishes his soft golden hair and the pair of majestic vertical horns the most, is reluctant to use them to attack even against the enemy. Breaking his horns in front of the sober Kinjiao is definitely more difficult than killing him directly!

Therefore, Yinjiao knew very well that Jing was not lying to him.

But now… it’s not the time to back down!

“A brat is a brat. Even if what you said is true, it will only strengthen my determination to destroy everything!” Yinjiao laughed out loud, like a madman, “Should we compare which side is more miserable? Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you that the Nine-Tails that you Konoha Village has been looking for is in my body right now! If I let him run wild in Konoha…”

“What!” Tobirama widened his eyes, and his eyes twitched slightly, “How could it be?”

Jing clenched his fists, and his Mangekyō Sharingan burst into a cold light, “If that happens, I swear, I will do my best to stop you and kill you!”

Ginjiao’s eyes flashed with madness, “Okay, then let’s see, will you kill me first, or will I destroy Konoha first?”

Jing stared at Yinjiao, and because of his excessive anger, veins even popped out on his forehead. This was the first time in history that he wanted to kill someone so much!

But he knew very well that if he really took action in the village, the situation in Konoha would never be much better than that of Kumogakure!

After all, the Nine-Tailed Beast is different from ordinary tailed beasts!

When the two were in dispute, Tobirama was like an outsider, as if the hostage was not himself, and all his thoughts were on one thing.

Why did the Nine-Tailed Beast, which was released by Uchiha Shenyu, appear in the Hidden Cloud Village and was sealed in the body of Yinjiao, a high-ranking member of the Hidden Cloud Village?

Did the Hidden Cloud Village snatch the Nine-Tailed Beast before Konoha?

But the Nine-Tailed Beast, which Shenyu risked his life to release, was willing to be a wedding dress for others?

No, that’s not right!

Madara and his group are not fools, it’s impossible for them to do such a meaningless thing?

All this is too weird!

He pondered hard, frowned, and thoughts flashed in his mind.

After a long time, he seemed to have figured out the reason, and his brows slowly relaxed, but his eyes were full of bitterness, and his slightly vicissitudes of life revealed a deep fatigue.

If everything was as he thought…

This war, everything about it is ridiculous…

“How about this,” Tobirama said, his hoarse voice filled with a heavy sense of twilight, “Let’s each take a step back…”

“Let’s negotiate…”

In July of the 14th year of Konoha, as the war progressed, in order to avoid a situation where both sides were destroyed, Konoha Village and Kumogakure Village chose to negotiate peace. This mighty war finally came to an end after both sides lost a Kage-level warrior and countless elite ninjas were buried on the battlefield.

Looking at the war situation, Konoha won the battle on both sides of the northeast, and successfully killed the second generation Raikage, captured two enemy tailed beasts and a Kage-level warrior, which can be said to be a great victory. However, in the end, Ginkaku stole their home, and they were afraid of the consequences, so they chose to negotiate peace.

Since Ginkaku did not trust Konoha, and the tailed beasts and Kinkaku were in Konoha’s hands, he chose the place for peace talks in Kumogakure and took the Second Hokage away. If Konoha really wanted peace, then he would come to Kumogakure with sincerity to redeem the people.

In this regard, the people of Konoha were naturally unwilling, but they were all rejected by the exhausted Tobirama, and allowed Ginkaku to take him away, leaving only this meaningful sentence:”I just want this ridiculous thing to end as soon as possible…”

Soon, after discussion, Uchiha Kagami led the guard team to negotiate on behalf of Konoha to Kumogakure Village. Under the leadership of Sarutobi Hiruzen, the second generation’s disciples volunteered to join the negotiation camp.

Several people arrived at Kumogakure Village as scheduled, and the meeting went on as normal. Ginkaku did not play any tricks, which made Kagami relax his vigilance a little.

The conditions of both parties were basically within the expectations of the other party. Ginkaku promised to release the second generation Hokage and withdraw all the Kumogakure ninjas from the Fire Country. He also promised that within 30 years, they would not offend each other, but Konoha must release Kinkaku and return all the two tailed beasts.

After a lot of argument, Hiruzen and Danzo relied on their excellent eloquence and forcibly detained the two tails in Konoha for 30 years on the grounds that both fronts of Kumogakure were defeated. During this period, if Kumogakure started a war, they would not be returned to ensure the authenticity of the peace treaty.

Ginkaku was indignant, but because of Uchiha Kagami’s presence, he could only nod in dismay.

At this point, the peace treaty was reached. Kagami lifted the control of the Eight-Tails in front of the high-level leaders of Kumogakure and released the dying Kinkaku from the scroll.

Kumogakure also released the Second Hokage quite readily, allowing the Konoha people to take him away, and now drafted a military order to disband all the large and small Kumogakure positions and facilities in the Land of Fire and withdraw troops back to the court.

After the Konoha people left Kumogakure Village, Uchiha Kagami proposed to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to transfer back to Konoha directly, and Danzo and others naturally nodded happily.

However, Kagami keenly noticed that Tobirama’s mood seemed to be wrong. He was silent all the way, as if he had a heavy heart.

“Teacher, what’s the problem?”

Tobirama shook his head silently, and suddenly asked a strange question: “Do you remember the answer to that question?”

“Question?” Kagami was a little confused.

Tobirama asked, “Which is more important, companions or the village?”

When he asked this question, he turned his eyes to everyone.

“This…” Hiruzen frowned when he heard the question and fell into a dilemma.

“Of course it’s the village. Without the village, where would the companions come from?” Danzo said as a matter of course, “Thinking back to the beginning, it was the Senju and Uchiha who jointly founded Konoha Village, and then we had the Shimura, Sarutobi, Hyuga and other big families joining. Which one is more important, isn’t it obvious at a glance?”

“But… Senju and Uchiha also became companions first, and then there was a village…” Mitomon Yan pushed his glasses and suddenly hesitated, “But… this statement is not accurate. Hashirama must have dreamed of building a village first, and then he called on his companions to work hard for it…”

“This is a false proposition.” Kagami suddenly said.

Tobirama’s calm eyes produced a ripple, and he looked at Kagami with everyone else.

“The village and the companions are originally inseparable. The purpose of Konoha’s existence is to protect peace and create a more hopeful future. A village with companions is a village, otherwise it is just an empty shell filled with power and desire.”

Jing said calmly: “If I have to make a choice, I will choose the more hopeful path, so no matter which one I choose, as long as it can make the future of the village brighter, I will do it without hesitation.”

Tobirama let out a long breath, looked at Jing solemnly, and suddenly said something that made everyone dumbfounded:

“Uchiha Jing, from tomorrow on, you will be the third generation of Konoha’s Hokage.”

There was silence, and everyone’s ears were only the rustling sound of the wind blowing the leaves.

But from a visual point of view, the expressions of several people were wonderful.

Hiruzen widened his eyes, as if he had heard something incredible.

Danzo’s face was full of disbelief, and he looked at Jing unconsciously, with confusion and deep jealousy flashing in his eyes.

Yan and Xiaochun stared at Tobirama with a dull look on their faces, not understanding the situation at all.

Only Jing frowned tightly, with a trace of panic flashing across his face.

In the silence, a clear voice broke the calm, and there was no emotion in the calm tone, as if it was the impermanence of life.

“After you have arranged the funeral affairs, you can set off, Lord Tobirama.”
