Kyu walked step by step towards Konohagakure's main entrance.

At this time, his heart was also very nervous. After all, he did not know what kind of attitude Konohagakure had.

Such a front-runner.

It was very likely that he would not be able to return if he went.

Especially since there were so many people in front of him.

Kyu tried his best to make himself look calm and calm. There was almost no expression on his slightly tanned face.

Just like that, under the watchful eyes of Konohagakure ninjas, Kyu walked directly into Konohagakure.

"Now, I will bring you to see our village's Third Hokage-sama. If you want to say anything, just say it clearly. Don't have any crooked thoughts!"

At this time, the Konohagakure ninja who led Kyu in whispered. He was a member of Konohagakure's Defense Division and was responsible for the village defense. If Kyu made a move and something happened, then they could not bear this responsibility at all.

"I understand." Kyu nodded. His face was still expressionless. He did not dare to act rashly. Right now, Brei and Advisor were waiting for his report!

"Come with me!"

The ninja from Konohagakure Defense Division immediately led Kyu in the direction of the Third Hokage without stopping at all.

It had been a long time since the appointed time for Kumogakure's envoy group to come to Konohagakure!

No matter if it were Konohagakure ninja or Kumogakure ninja, no one wanted to delay any longer.

Kyu followed behind the ninja from the Defense Division and came directly in front of the Third Hokage.

"Third Hokage-sama!"

Kyu was very tactful and bowed to Hiruzen.

After all, with his status, he was facing the Kage of the other village. It was not a loss for him to bow.

"Tell me."

Hiruzen nodded to Kyu. There was not much fluctuation in his eyes. After what happened just now, his mood had become much calmer.

Whether it was a fight or a truce, he could accept it. The current situation was gradually out of his control.

However.

Hiruzen still has an idea that if the battle can be stopped, then the peace must be maintained.

After all, he clearly realized that the current Konohagakure might be in a state of being attacked from both sides.

There was Kumogakure in front and Sunagakure behind him, so the situation was not particularly advantageous for Konohagakure.

"Yes!"

Kyu immediately responded. Then, he took a deep breath and tried his best to calm his emotions down. He would not make this negotiation bad because of the fluctuation of his emotions.

"The reason why our envoy group was late was not deliberately targeting Konohagakure, but because we were attacked by Kirigakure!"

Kyu said in a low voice. When he talked about this matter, he was still very angry. After all, many of his companions had died in this battle. He was not in a good mood at all.

"Kirigakure's attack?!"

When Hiruzen heard Kyu's words, he immediately widened his eyes, and his eyes flashed with a touch of shock. This was something he had never thought of, but what he saw in Kyu's angry eyes did not contain any lies.

After that.

Hiruzen looked at Danzo, who was next to him.

There was a similar look of surprise in Danzo's eyes.

"I think what he said is true."

Danzo nodded to Hiruzen. He had obtained a trace of information about the relationship between Kumogakure and Kirigakure from Hari.

According to the information he had received.

Kumogakure had been using Kirigakure for so many years.

On the surface, the two villages were allies, but in fact, Kumogakure had been holding Kirigakure's hand. This relationship was not equal at all.

Therefore.

In Hari's view.

It was only a matter of time before Kirigakure exploded.

Of course.

As long as Kumogakure's strength was able to suppress Kirigakure, then Kirigakure's eruption time would become increasingly late until something that Kirigakure could not endure appeared.

Because of this.

When Danzo heard that Kumogakure's envoy group had been attacked by Kirigakure, he was not too shocked. He felt that this matter was reasonable.

The only accident.

It should be said that they did not expect it to appear so early.

After seeing Danzo nod and say certain words, Hiruzen had a general idea.

Then.

He looked at Kyu.

"What exactly happened?"

Hiruzen asked Kyu. His eyes were full of curiosity. At this time, he also wanted to know what happened to Kumogakure.

"It's like this!"

Kyu took a deep breath and then told Hiruzen in detail about the attack on Kumogakure's outpost.

From the continuous attacks of Kirigakure water release ninja from yesterday morning to the joint attack of Kirigakure Seven Ninja Swordsmen at midnight, the entire process was basically described without hiding anything.

After Kyu explained all these things, he finally talked about the fierce battle after a night. Brei relied on his super-strong lightning release technique to survive the attack of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. He also protected the most important person in Kumogakure's envoy group, the Kumogakure Advisor.

Apart from that.

The remaining Kumogakure ninjas.

Those who survived were all lucky.

Those who were unlucky.

They all died at the hands of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

After hearing what Kyu told him, Hiruzen immediately fell silent, and his face became much more serious.

"It seems that something big is going to happen in the ninja world!"

Hiruzen could not help but sigh. Even he knew that the fact that Kirigakure could launch an attack on Kumogakure showed the current chaotic environment of the ninja world.

"Where is the envoy group?"

Hiruzen asked Kyu, who was not far in front of him. In fact, he asked the question that he already knew. He knew that Kumogakure's envoy group was outside Konohagakure's village, but he needed to use this sentence to draw out Kyu's next words.

"Advisor-sama and Brei-sama are about 5,000 meters away from the main entrance. Because we did not reach Konohagakure at the appointed time, they think it is better for me to make things clear for the negotiation." Kyu was no longer afraid. His tone paused slightly, then continued, "Now I have explained the whole story to you, Third Hokage-sama. If you think we still need to negotiate, or there is no need to negotiate, I will bring your words back to our Kumogakure Advisor-sama."

"I understand!"

Hiruzen nodded heavily. This Kumogakure ninja had already explained the matter very clearly.

Now, whether to negotiate or not, the initiative was on Konohagakure's side!

This was something that Hiruzen wanted to see more.

Although this Kumogakure ninja did not speak too clearly, he could feel that Kumogakure's envoy group still hoped to carry out this negotiation. After all, it involved Hari, an important person.

Right now, Kumogakure's situation was no better than Konohagakure's.

First, there is a lack of a brain-like leader, Hari.

Then, on the power map in the ninja world, they have an antagonistic relationship with Konohagakure and Kirigakure at the same time.

In addition, there was also Iwagakure, who was glaring at them from the side.

If Kumogakure was not careful, they might become the target on all sides!

Hiruzen had summed up these points in an instant, allowing him to understand what kind of situation Kumogakure was facing now.

"Go back and tell your Advisor-sama to come in. I think there is some misunderstanding between us. We should talk about it." Hiruzen's voice softened a lot. At this time, he still did not want Konohagakure and Kumogakure to be enemies.

"Yes."

The lines on Kyu's face softened a little. Then he turned and walked in the direction of Kumogakure's camp.

When he talked to Hiruzen, his tone and attitude showed that they could negotiate or not, but in fact, they still needed this negotiation.

It was just that he couldn't make Kumogakure a weaker party in this negotiation because of his tone.

Kyu walked out of Konohagakure's main entrance and walked in the direction of Kumogakure's camp, ready to report this news to Brei and the Advisor.

Konohagakure's ninjas looked at Kyu's back as he left. Everyone had different thoughts, but they were all filled with emotions.

Their expressions and eyes were quite complicated.

As ninjas.

They would rather go up and have a hot-blooded battle with Kumogakure and then create a life-and-death situation to vent the dissatisfaction in their hearts thoroughly.

They were also unwilling to stand here and watch the Third Hokage and Kumogakure carry out the final peace talks.

But...

This was a situation they could not control at all.

Since it was the Third Hokage's decision, they could not say anything. They could only silently extinguish the flames of anger burning in their hearts.

"Hiruzen, your last words are too soft." Danzo stood behind Hiruzen and said.

"It doesn't matter." Hiruzen shook his head and did not care about this.

"Alright."

Danzo stood still and stared at Hiruzen's back. He thought for a moment and didn't say anything. He just stood quietly behind him.

Behind Danzo.

Konohagakure's two advisors.

Koharu and Homura.

The two advisors frowned slightly. They also felt the problem that Danzo was talking about.

That was that Hiruzen spoke too gently when facing this Kumogakure ninja.

Now was a very important period.

Since they had decided to negotiate, they could not relax in terms of momentum.

Kumogakure's envoy group will come sooner or later.

Then they could make an issue of this. As long as they stood still for a bit, they could cut off a piece of meat.

But it was obvious...

Hiruzen had given up on this.

At this time, before the other party had made any excessive demands on Konohagakure, Hiruzen had already taken a step back.

This was clearly an action that should not have happened!

However.

They were different from Danzo.

They chose to see through and not say anything!

To some extent...

These two advisors also contributed to Hiruzen's inaction. They had always maintained an attitude of seeing through and not saying anything.

They knew a lot of things that happened in Konohagakure and even participated in it. However, they were clearly just a bystander or an indifferent bystander.

This kind of non-committal administrative method was able to preserve their position.

These two people looked like they didn't say anything, but in fact, they were very shrewd. They just happened to know that many things could not be done by Hiruzen. Then, there was no point in bringing up things that Hiruzen could not do. On the contrary, it might lead to Hiruzen's dissatisfaction and ultimately affect their position as Advisor.

...

On the side of Kumogakure's camp.

Kyu ran back quickly. When he left Konohagakure's main entrance, he still maintained a calm and composed state. When he left a distance that the other party could not see clearly, he had already started running.

"Hu..hu..hu..hu..."

Kyu began to pant. The scene just now had shocked him so much that his back was soaked in cold sweat.

Just now, he could clearly feel the looks of Konohagakure's ninjas around him. After all, Kumogakure and Konohagakure were in a war. Even if they were only at the stage of probing, it did not prevent the atmosphere from being very tense. It could cause a scene to break out at any time.

"Kyu is back!"

In Kumogakure's camp, a Kumogakure ninja saw Kyu running back and immediately shouted. His voice was very loud and could clearly be heard by everyone in the camp.

Immediately.

Brei and the Kumogakure Advisor walked out of the tent together.

Both of their eyes were bloodshot.

After a night of fierce battle, no one had had enough rest, especially Brei. His injuries and exhaustion made him want to take the time to rest in the tent and recover his stamina.

The Kumogakure Advisor was about the same as Brei. Although he did not participate in the battle, his mental state and mental strength were exhausted. In addition, he had been on guard all the way. When he got to the area near Konohagakure, he put down the little guard in his heart. He immediately felt exhausted and had to take the opportunity to rest for a while. Otherwise, his brain might not be able to turn around in the negotiation.

With the current state of Brei and Kumogakure Advisor, if they braced themselves to go to Konohagakure, if the other party insisted on keeping them, no one would be able to escape.

Because of this.

The two of them decided to send Kyu over to explain the matter.

Moreover, when Kyu went out to see Konohagakure, the two of them took advantage of this gap to rest for a while.

After that.

After hearing Kumogakure ninjas shout, the two of them quickly got up and walked out of the tent.

A moment later.

Brei and Kumogakure Advisor walked out of the tent together. The two of them tidied up their clothes as they walked. They seemed to have slept quite soundly just now.

"Kyu, how is the situation?" The Kumogakure Advisor immediately asked Kyu. His eyes were fixed on Kyu, and there was a nervous expression on his face. He attached great importance to this negotiation. After all, he faces a Kirigakure attack on the way. Moreover, he insisted on coming here to negotiate with Konohagakure.

As Kumogakure Advisor asked this question, Brei, who was next to him, looked at Kyu curiously, and his eyes revealed the same doubt.

"I have already made things clear!"

Kyu revealed a relaxed smile on his face. He could feel the light in the eyes of Brei and the Advisor when they looked at him, and he immediately felt that he was being valued.

"Third Hokage-sama of Konohagakure is standing at the main entrance of the village waiting for our Kumogakure envoy group. I can feel that Konohagakure also wants to negotiate." Kyu immediately explained. When he was talking to Hiruzen, he had been paying attention to the eyes of the people around him and Hiruzen's expressions. After a slight pause, he added, "It's just that Konohagakure's ninjas don't seem to be that friendly."

"It's normal for Konohagakure's ninjas not to be friendly to us. After all, our two villages are in a war. If they all smile and welcome us, then it might be a trap!" After hearing Kyu's narration, the big stone hanging in the Kumogakure Advisor's heart was immediately put down. The current Kumogakure could not withstand the war with Konohagakure and Kirigakure at the same time, let alone Iwagakure, who had been staring at them.

"Shall we go to Konohagakure now?" Brei immediately asked. He looked at the Kumogakure Advisor who was beside him. It could be said that everything here was under Kumogakure Advisor's command.

"Yes!"

The Kumogakure Advisor immediately nodded. Then, he said in a low voice, "Konohagakure has been waiting for us for a long time. If we continue to delay, it will cause our side to continue to be in a disadvantageous situation. Now, we must go over and negotiate as soon as possible!"

After hearing the information that Kyu had brought back, this Kumogakure Advisor immediately thought of what to do next.

Since Third Hokage was already standing at Konohagakure's main entrance, waiting for them.

Then they could not delay this time any longer.

The initiative was on Konohagakure's side.

Everything they did was to stabilize this opponent and rescue Hari.

At this time.

They still didn't know that Hari was injured.

Then.

This Kumogakure Advisor looked around at the ninjas on Kumogakure's side and took a deep breath, causing his chest to swell up.

"Everyone!"

The Kumogakure Advisor's voice suddenly rang out, clearly entering the ears of every single one of the Kumogakure ninjas. All of their attention was focused on him.

"Now we are going to Konohagakure!"

As soon as these words came out.

All of the Kumogakure ninjas were roused.

These ninjas were all ninjas that were stationed at Kumogakure's base camp.

In other words...

They were all ninjas who had fought with Konohagakure's ninjas in the past half a month!

"The main purpose of our trip to Konohagakure this time is to solve the crisis that Kumogakure is currently facing. We are not going to stir up trouble, nor are we going to start a war. I hope that all of you can restrain your temper and not create any trouble for Kumogakure after entering Konohagakure!"

This Kumogakure Advisor immediately said loudly. Now that Hari was caught, he had to face this situation cautiously.

There were only a dozen or so people in this newly formed envoy group.

If he couldn't even control this well!

If he caused any trouble, he would have an inescapable responsibility, and it would make Kumogakure's situation even more awkward.

"Understood!"

These Kumogakure ninjas immediately responded. They were all professional ninjas and knew that the mission was more important. Now that the Kumogakure Advisor had given the order, they would follow the order and would not do anything out of line.

In fact, even if the Kumogakure Advisor did not give such an order.

They, Kumogakure ninjas, would not act rashly.

The phenomenon of a ninja abandoning a mission and ignoring it would basically not happen easily.

Even when Hari led a Kumogakure envoy group, such a thing did not happen.

The reason for the birth of such a devastating pig-like teammate phenomenon was that Aoba had relied on his superb acting skills to play the role of the pig-like teammate of the other party. He could totally be regarded as a god-like opponent!

Only...

No one knew about this except for Aoba.

This also made the Kumogakure Advisor begin to doubt Kumogakure ninjas' ability. Before he entered Konohagakure, he specifically emphasized this matter.

Even so.

He wasn't at ease.

If not for the fact that this negotiation was extremely important to Kumogakure, even if there were the risk of being backstabbed, he would still go.

After that.

Under the affirmation of these Kumogakure ninjas.

This Kumogakure Advisor was the first to walk in front of the team. He led the Kumogakure ninjas and walked in the direction of Konohagakure.

Brei followed the Kumogakure Advisor by the side. Although he had exhausted all of his physical strength, he still took the responsibility of protecting the Kumogakure Advisor very well.

Ten minutes later.

The Kumogakure envoy group came to Konohagakure's main entrance and met the eyes of Konohagakure's ninjas. They then resolutely walked in.
