Chapter 42: The pressure on Hasi Lama and others, the 4 actors under great pressure

"The first topic of this Five Kage meeting is the distribution of the tailed beasts." Hashirama Senju glanced at the Kage present. His voice was low and powerful, as if carrying an invisible pressure.

"We should discuss a fair and reasonable plan." Senju Hashirama continued, looking at everyone with a firm gaze.

As soon as the words fell, whispers were heard from the audience. The Kages of each country were well aware of the importance of the tailed beasts. Not only did they possess enormous power, they also represented the strength and dignity of their respective countries.

No one wants to give in on this matter because it concerns the future development of the country.

At this time, the first Kazekage Retsuto broke the silence. He said loudly: "I think the tailed beasts should be distributed equally to each country so as to ensure the balance of power." His tone was firm and seemed unquestionable.

The first Tsuchikage Ishigawa also echoed, "I agree with the Kazekage. Only in this way can we avoid a country becoming too powerful and causing a war."

However, the First Raikage Ai expressed a different opinion. He frowned and said seriously: "The power of the tailed beasts is too strong. If they are distributed equally, it may cause new disputes.

"After all, every country wants to have stronger power. Perhaps some countries will compete secretly for this reason, or even conflicts will break out." The words of the Raikage made the other Kages fall into deep thought. This possibility cannot be completely ruled out.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the conference room became tense, and everyone was thinking about how to solve this difficult problem.

Meanwhile, Senju Tobirama, who was standing by, said to Senju Hashirama in a serious tone, "Brother, tell them first that we have captured all the tailed beasts."

Senju Hashirama nodded, then looked at the Kage and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, I want to tell you a piece of news. Our Konoha Village has captured all the tailed beasts." As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was in an uproar. The Kages of various countries looked at each other with surprise and worry on their faces.

"How is this possible? You actually captured all the tailed beasts so quickly?" The First Kazekage Retsu couldn't help but question.

Senju Hashirama smiled slightly, "This is the result of our village's great efforts, but we are not trying to monopolize the tailed beasts. Instead, we hope that through "reasonable" distribution, the power of the tailed beasts can bring peace to the entire ninja world."

The First Mizukage Byakuren calmly analyzed: "In this case, the distribution of the tailed beasts needs to be considered more carefully. We cannot just base it on the balance of power, but also need to consider the actual needs and capabilities of each country."

After thinking about it, the First Raikage Ai said: "Yes, we can formulate a distribution plan based on the national conditions and strategic significance of each country.

"For example, some weak countries may not need powerful tailed beasts, while some big countries need more power to maintain peace."

Senju Hashirama nodded, agreeing with the Raikage's point of view, "Then, let's discuss in detail how to distribute the tailed beasts according to the situation of each country."

At this time, the first Tsuchikage Ishikawa, who had been silent, spoke up: "I suggest that we first understand the needs and wishes of each country before making a final decision."

The Kages from various countries expressed their agreement, and the meeting entered the next stage, where the Kages from various countries began to state the situation of their own countries and their needs for the tailed beasts.

After listening to the opinions of various countries, Hashirama Senju and several other Kages had an in-depth discussion.

They weigh various factors and try to find a formula that will meet the needs of most countries.

After a long and heated debate, a preliminary result on the distribution of the tailed beasts gradually surfaced. The distribution of the tailed beasts was decided by Hashirama Senju, and the other ninja villages just had to listen obediently.

The Sand Village in the Land of Wind got the one-tailed beast Shukaku; the Kumogakure in the Land of Lightning got the two-tailed Nekomata and the eight-tailed Gyuki; the Mist Village in the Land of Water got the three-tailed Isobu and the six-tailed Rhino; the Iwagakure in the Land of Earth got the five-tailed Muwang and the four-tailed Sun Goku; the Konohagakure in the Land of Fire got the nine-tailed Kurama.

As for why one of the tailed beasts was missing, Hashirama Senju stated that the tailed beast seemed to have disappeared and could not be found.

Yu Xi couldn't help but laugh as he stood next to Uchiha Madara. In the end, we had already captured all the tailed beasts. We asked you to speak just to give you face. The actual distribution in the end still depends on how we do it.

When the Kage saw that Hashirama Senju and the others were unmoved, they couldn't help but feel puzzled and asked why they didn't distribute the tailed beasts quickly?

"I have to explain this as well. These tailed beasts were captured by my Konoha Village. I can't give them to you for free. If you want these tailed beasts, you have to exchange them for money." Senju Hashirama said in a serious tone.

After hearing what Hashirama Senju said, the Kages of all countries fell silent. After all, the value of the tailed beasts is immeasurable, and using money to exchange for them is indeed a high price.

"Isn't this a bit too much? The tailed beasts are public resources. Why should we buy them with money?" The first Kazekage Retsu was the first to express his dissatisfaction.

Yu Xi and Uchiha Madara looked at the First Kazekage Reito coldly. The First Kazekage Reito suddenly felt a huge pressure and stopped talking immediately.

"We paid a huge price to capture the tailed beasts. We did this to maintain the balance between countries. If we give away the tailed beasts for free, it may cause some countries to become too powerful and trigger new conflicts." Senju Hashirama explained.

The first Tsuchikage Shihe pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps we can negotiate a reasonable price that will allow you to recover your costs without overburdening us."

After some bargaining, the Kages of various countries finally reached a consensus. They decided to jointly invest in purchasing the tailed beasts to ensure the balance of power and maintain peace.

Immediately afterwards, Hashirama Senju gave an order and Tobirama Senju immediately took the order and left. Not long after, a group of strong Konoha ninjas were seen walking quickly towards them carrying several huge containers.

These containers are pitch black and exude a mysterious aura, which makes people curious.

Looking at these huge monsters that suddenly appeared before them, the shadows from the major ninja villages looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion.

They secretly wondered what these containers were used for, but nothing could be revealed from the outside.

So, everyone turned their eyes to Hashirama Senju, hoping to get an answer from him.

Senju Hashirama seemed to have anticipated that everyone would have this question. After a slight smile, he motioned Senju Tobirama to come forward and explain.

Senju Tobirama walked over to the containers, pointed at one of them and said, "Look everyone, these huge containers don't contain ordinary things, but tailed beasts!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone present was shocked. You know, the tailed beasts have always been the strategic resources that every ninja village dreams of.

However, it is really incredible that so many tailed beasts are sealed in a container.

The shadows widened their eyes and carefully observed the tailed beasts in the containers.

Just as Senju Tobirama said, they felt an extremely powerful chakra fluctuation.

The intensity of this chakra is far beyond what ordinary people can bear. Even those who are Kage-level strongmen cannot help but be moved by it.

"Then about the funding..." Before he finished speaking, Hashirama Senju took out an agreement from his pocket and put it on the table and continued, "I have an agreement here. I believe everyone knows that you did not bring a large amount of money with you to attend the meeting this time. It doesn't matter. Just sign your names on this agreement."

After a pause, Senju Hashirama took a deep breath and said slowly: "Of course, this agreement is not as unbinding as a piece of waste paper. Once everyone has signed it, you can take the tailed beast away as agreed.

“However, please also note that the agreement clearly stipulates that you must deliver the corresponding funds here within a specific time frame.

"If anyone dares not to pay on time, then... hey, the consequences will be very serious!"

When he said the last sentence, an unparalleled chakra fluctuation emanated from Hashirama Senju's body.

His originally gentle gaze now became as sharp as a knife, with a hint of coldness, and it was fixed on everyone present.

Yu Xi and Uchiha Madara, who were standing nearby, looked at each other and released their own powerful aura at the same time.

For a moment, the entire space was shrouded by three earth-shaking auras, as if they were going to swallow up everything!

The actions of these three people are clearly sending a message to others: Anyone who dares to violate this agreement will be subject to their endless anger and severe punishment!

After hearing these powerful words from Senju Hashirama, the faces of the Kages from the major ninja villages became solemn and they exchanged complicated looks with each other.

They knew very well that the man in front of them, who was known as the "God of Ninja", would never joke around easily. If anyone dared to violate the agreement, then what awaited him would be a horrible and bloody revenge.

As for Yu Xi and Uchiha Madara, they were already beaming with joy.

We can't imagine what terrible consequences would be caused if someone really touched this bottom line...

After a moment of silence, the shadows stood up and walked towards the agreement with firm steps. Without any hesitation, they picked up the pen and solemnly signed their names on it.

After everyone had signed, Senju Hashirama withdrew his breath and revealed a satisfied smile. Yuxi and Uchiha Madara also withdrew their breath.

Senju Hashirama nodded, and then said to everyone in a gentle but majestic voice: "In this case, why don't we formally conclude an alliance between the five major ninja villages at this wonderful moment?

"After all, in the days ahead, we will need to work hand in hand to face countless challenges and difficulties together!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a warm applause from the audience. This applause was both an approval of Hashirama Senju's proposal and an expression of anticipation for the alliance that was about to be established.

Amidst the laughter and joy, the leaders of the five major ninja villages reached a consensus that they would work closely together, support each other, and strive to achieve the goal of peace and stability.

[Yu Xi]: They are really old foxes, beyond help.
