Chapter 37
In the Kirigakure reception room, the Raikage sat at one side of the round table, with a row of Kumogakure ANBU members standing behind him, like bodyguards, all wearing masks and serious.
Terumi Mei suddenly walked in with a group of ANBU. Terumi
Mei sat down directly at the other side of the round table, and the Kirigakure ANBU also lined up behind her like bodyguards, with Chojuro and Ao standing on both sides of her.
“Lord Raikage.” Mei Terumi said sarcastically,”You have come all the way from the Land of Lightning to my Land of Water. What do you want to talk to me about?”
The Raikage was a little annoyed by her tone, but it was not a good idea to get angry in someone else’s territory, so he snorted and said,”I’m sure Lord Mizukage has heard about the attack on the Sand Village and our Ninja Village by unknown forces.”
“I heard about it.” Mei Terumi said sarcastically,”I didn’t expect that the Jinchūriki of the Hidden Cloud Village was kidnapped. Until now, we still haven’t figured out who did it. If this happened in my village, I wouldn’t be able to continue to be the Kage.”
“What did you say?”The Raikage slammed the table and stood up in anger. Terumi
Mei looked at him fearlessly:”Why, such a thing happened in your own ninja village, and you don’t allow others to say it? When did Lord Raikage become so petty?”
“Mei Terumi! You want to start a war with me!”The Raikage was furious.
“Start a war? You can give it a try.” Mei Terumi was not panicked at all.
The two looked at each other.
The Anbu ninjas behind them also put their hands on their waists, ready to draw their weapons at any time.
The air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, which could be ignited at any time.
If a fight broke out at this time, it would definitely be a war between the two countries, so Chojuro spoke to mediate:”You two, don’t be impulsive, let’s talk it over. We have a common enemy now, and this is not the time for internal fighting.”
The Raikage didn’t want to really start a war for the time being, so he held back his temper and sat down:”Mei Terumi, to make a long story short, there is a force that is capturing the tailed beasts, and I speculate that the three-tailed beast in your country will be the next target of this force.”
“So what?” Mei Terumi also sat down.
“I want to capture this group of people myself, so I will stay in your country for the time being, and you must tell me the location of the three-tailed beast, and I will wait nearby for them.” The Raikage said
“This is impossible.” Terumi refused without even thinking:”The tailed beast is a strategic weapon of a country. How can you easily reveal the information about the tailed beast to other people, especially the Kage of other ninja villages? Do you think I’m a fool?”
The Raikage also knew that this request might be a bit excessive, so his attitude was unusually good:”I’m not doing this for the tailed beast, I’m doing this to avenge my subordinates. How about this, I can guarantee it in the name of the Raikage.”
The Cloud Village is notoriously shameless, especially the Raikage who is notoriously overbearing. Naturally, Terumi would not believe it:”No”
“So what do you want?” The Thunder Shadow’s temper was a little bit out of control.
“Since the incident happened within our country, I, the Mizukage, will handle it.” Terumi Mei said,”I will ambush this group of people, and as for you, you can either go back or stay with me and wait for me to capture that group of people.”
“You don’t need my help?” Raikage was a little surprised.
“No need.” Mei Terumi shook her head.
This method was very reasonable, and the Raikage had no reason to refuse, but he still wanted to avenge his subordinates personally:”I can go with you, and maybe I can help during the battle.”
“No need.” Mei Terumi still refused:”To be honest, I don’t know you very well. What if you attack me in a fight? I can’t trust you 100% in a short period of time, and the same goes for you.”
The Raikage was unable to refute
“Then you can stay in my village for a while and wait for me to catch those people. Of course, you have to hand in all your weapons, and I will also send Anbu to watch you all day. Do you understand my approach?” Mei Terumi asked.
This approach was completely reasonable, and the Raikage nodded:”No problem”
“Okay, Chojuro, take them to the temporary residence. Ao, you count a team of people, and we will go to the vicinity of the Three-Tails to set up an ambush in advance.” Terumi Mei ordered.
Ao was a little worried:”Mizukage-sama, let the Raikage stay in the village, and you go out of the village. If the Raikage messes up,……”
“If they dare to mess around, there are still elders in the village who can stop them.”Terumi Mei was relieved:”Only relying on the Raikage and ten ANBU followers to occupy my Kirigakure, unless it is the Senju Hashirama back then, no one else has the ability to do this.”
“That’s true.” Qing nodded and said no more.
