Chapter 659 - Chapter 659: A Tense Meeting

Seeing the Raikage say this, Naruto immediately felt a little helpless.

"Lord Raikage, Konoha does not intend to occupy these Tailed Beasts!"

"We are only trying to send these Tailed Beasts back!"

"Hmph!" The Raikage snorted coldly.

At this moment, the Second Tsuchikage, Mu, also interjected with a slow smile, "Who knows if you'll send them back or not!"

The meaning of this was clearly that they didn't trust Konoha.

In fact, it wasn't just a matter of disbelief.

Everyone present probably didn't want to go back themselves.

Although they could still be Kage after returning.

They were all supreme beings in their respective villages, all among the top ninjas in the ninja world.

They didn't actually care about their status.

As Kage, they cared more about their villages. Once these past Kage left, one could imagine what their villages would face next.

What they would face would be the two behemoths, exploiting their villages until nothing was left.

Konoha could then return to its days of being the sole dominant power.

There would be no problems either.

At that time, Konoha would still call the shots in the ninja world.

Under these circumstances, the Kage didn't want to go back at all, and even wanted to stay in this era.

So it wasn't that they didn't trust Konoha, but rather they were afraid that Konoha really had the ability to send them back.

This was what the Kage were resisting.

Naruto, however, hadn't realized this yet and still wanted to explain.

"Everyone, please rest assured. We will not only send all the Tailed Beasts back to their original eras, but even all the ninjas who do not belong to this era will also be sent back."

"If these ninjas are not sent back to their original eras, then the entire ninja world will never be peaceful!"

Naruto seemed somewhat naive, thinking that the current situation was something everyone disliked.

Sending these ninjas who didn't belong to this era back to their original eras was something all ninjas in this era hoped to do.

However, the current situation actually seemed to be that only Konoha wanted to do this.

Because Konoha was very strong. As the strongest ninja village in the ninja world, it didn't matter if they sent all the ninjas from the past back.

After all, sending them away wouldn't cause any major changes to Konoha.

On the contrary, the existence of these people would hinder Konoha.

Different standpoints, so different thoughts.

Naruto was elaborating on the harm caused by the chaos.

However, the way the Kage looked at him was actually quite disdainful.

Compared to the so-called harm, the interests of the Five Great Nations and the five great ninja villages were more important.

In this situation, what was a little loss?

The problem that was very important in Naruto's eyes was not taken to heart by these people.

The Sage of Six Paths looked at the situation before him and shook his head gently.

These people all had their own ulterior motives. The final outcome of this meeting would probably not be as Naruto wished.

But the question the Sage of Six Paths was currently pondering was, if a conflict eventually broke out, should he intervene or not?

His stance had always been to advocate returning the ninja world to humans to decide their own future.

And now, the Sage of Six Paths also didn't think that other people's proposals were necessarily wrong.

Perhaps he shouldn't interfere.

Hamura Ōtsutsuki, on the side, seemed unable to watch any longer.

From beginning to end, none of these people had cared about the problems of the ninja world at all; they were all thinking about themselves.

It could be seen from their gazes.

These people didn't care what the ninja world became; they cared more about their own villages.

Just as Hamura Ōtsutsuki was about to say something, the Sage of Six Paths secretly stopped him.

At this moment, Naruto looked at everyone.

"So I hope that our five great ninja villages can work together to find ways to control all the ninjas who have come to this world due to the chaos."

"Then, when we find a method, we will send them all back!"

However, having said this, suddenly all the Raikage stood up.

Darui hesitated for a moment but still stood up with the Fourth Raikage.

The First Raikage looked at Naruto.

"No wonder the Hokage is suddenly so generous, willing to return the Tailed Beasts!"

"It turns out you want to control all of us!"

"The Hokage's appetite is a bit too big, isn't it!"

This demand not only made the Raikage's side very angry, but the gazes of the other Kage towards Naruto also changed a lot.

Naruto was stunned for a moment. These people seemed to have misunderstood him again.

He wasn't saying he wanted to forcibly control them.

On the contrary, he hoped they would help control the other ninjas!

After all, among the ninjas who came to this era due to the chaos, there was a considerable number of people who were not good people themselves. After coming to the new era, they became even more wanton…

To the point where they seemed to have become real demons.

Destroying and killing everywhere, completely devoid of any humanity.

If these people were not controlled, it would definitely become more and more chaotic later.

At that time, even more people would die.

"I do not wish to control you all, but rather hope that you will work with Konoha to help me capture these uncontrollable ninjas!"

"Control them all, and then send them back to their original eras together!"

At this point, the First Kazekage glanced at Naruto before him.

"Lord Hokage, do you still want to borrow a knife to kill someone?"

Hearing this, Naruto was also a little angry now.

These people before him seemed to have absolutely no trust in him whatsoever.

In that case, no matter what he said, these people would absolutely not believe him.

Then, this meeting seemed completely impossible to continue.

Naruto felt a little helpless, "Don't you all trust me even a little?"

The Mizukage, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke.

"Lord Hokage, if you want us to believe you, I'm afraid you'll have to return our Tailed Beasts first before we can talk about trust."

This meant returning the Tailed Beasts first, and then discussing other things.

I'm afraid that even if the Tailed Beasts were really returned at that time, there would be nothing to discuss!

After all, since these people didn't believe Naruto's words from the bottom of their hearts, there would be no change no matter what.

Even the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, couldn't bear it anymore.

These guys weren't here to negotiate at all, but to condemn.

And all of them were hostile to Konoha. Since that was the case, why agree to the meeting?

Were they here to make fun of Konoha!

Even Hashirama was about to lose his patience, let alone the even more hot-tempered Tobirama. Although the Third Hokage, Hiruzen, had always been very good at forbearance, it also depended on the situation. Did he, a Third Hokage, still need to forbear in this situation?

It was completely unnecessary.

To everyone's surprise, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen, suddenly stood up.

"None of us belong to this era. Looking at your appearances, it seems you intend to stay in this era!"

"If that's the case, then Konoha will not let you act recklessly!"

"If you don't belong to this era, then you should return to your respective eras!"

Strong! No one expected the Third Hokage to be so assertive.
