However, those who understood the Third Hokage knew that he usually wouldn't speak so forcefully!
And the reason for the Third Hokage's assertiveness was also very simple.
Konoha was so strong now, he didn't need to hold back at all.
If even the Third Hokage was like this, let alone the other Hokage.
Seeing that the Hokage all had their gazes sharpened by the Third Hokage's words, the atmosphere in the entire meeting place instantly became even stranger.
The expressions of the Kage from the other four hidden villages flickered uncertainly.
Although their four villages had implicitly communicated, looking at Konoha's lineup now, they still didn't dare to directly clash with Konoha.
Not to mention Konoha's Kage, even a figure like the Sage of Six Paths had come with Konoha's people.
This naturally made the Kage of the other villages worry.
"Hmph! Konoha seems to be full of confidence!"
The Raikage, who was initially the most assertive, had now softened considerably. His gaze turned to the Sage of Six Paths.
"Is it because the Sage of Six Paths is on Konoha's side?"
The Third Raikage was very helpless. After encountering the Sage of Six Paths, he had tried every possible means to keep the Sage of Six Paths in his village. However, as soon as Sasuke arrived, with just a casual remark, he took away the Sage of Six Paths who could have been a great help to their village.
In this situation, the Third Raikage had considerable resentment towards Sasuke and the Sage of Six Paths.
At this moment, the Sage of Six Paths suddenly stood up.
Looking at the people before him.
"When I chose to save the ninja world, my purpose was to let this world be decided by humans themselves!"
"Not to be dominated by the Ōtsutsuki clan!"
"So now, my brother Hamura Ōtsutsuki and I do not choose to stand on anyone's side!"
"What the future of the ninja world will become is up to you to decide!"
Hearing this, the Third Raikage's eyes lit up.
Before he could speak, the Mizukage beside him smiled, "Is what the Sage of Six Paths said true?"
Hearing this, the Sage of Six Paths nodded, "Your dispute is, in fact, a human dispute. What the future of the ninja world will be, you will decide for yourselves!"
Hearing this, the Kage of the other villages all smiled.
In that case, they could let loose.
At this moment, Hashirama's expression was not very good.
"It seems this meeting is about to end here."
Hearing this, the expressions of the other Kage tensed. After all, speaking in this tone clearly meant they were preparing to fight.
"Let's go!"
Hashirama signaled everyone to go out.
"This meeting place is a place to discuss peace, not a place for fighting."
"We'll go out and settle it. If we must use fists to decide who to listen to!"
"Then let's use fists!"
"The loser shouldn't have any objections!"
Although Hashirama seemed full of fighting spirit, he clearly just wanted to turn the conflict between nations and villages into a conflict between Kage and Kage.
This way, at least, the deaths of ordinary people could be avoided as much as possible.
The Sage of Six Paths smiled. He had originally felt that his brother's laissez-faire attitude was somewhat irresponsible.
But now it seemed Hamura Ōtsutsuki also understood something.
Although these humans had many conflicts, they were also trying hard to find peaceful ways.
It was just that sometimes, without a fight, it was indeed impossible to convince the other party.
And letting it develop on its own was actually correct.
Hashirama took the lead and walked out directly. In this situation, not going out meant giving up!
The Second Hokage, Tobirama, also smiled and followed his older brother out.
Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled. For him, this was probably the most relaxed moment in his entire life.
No need to worry about the village, no need to worry about war, no need to think about any decisions.
He just needed to be a good ninja.
And a ninja's job was nothing more than fighting.
All three had gone out. After thinking for a moment, Naruto also followed them out. Since they were going to fight, then let's fight!
Sasuke was also completely indifferent.
When it came to fighting, he was not afraid.
They arrived outside the meeting hall.
Hashirama looked at the empty space in front of him, "This place might be a little too small to fight!"
Hearing this, Sasuke shook his head, "No! It's enough!"
"The commotion from Kage-level ninja battles will probably destroy this entire place very quickly!"
Tobirama said, and the next second, Sasuke clapped his hands.
Instantly, four clones appeared and rushed towards the distant empty space.
Then, a red light suddenly surged.
The Four Red Yang Formation was directly activated.
"With this thing, there shouldn't be any problem, right?"
With the Four Red Yang Formation for protection, even the battles of Kage-level powerhouses would not be enough to easily break the barrier.
This was a barrier that even the Ten-Tails couldn't break free from.
Let alone the battles of Kage-level powerhouses.
Seeing Sasuke activate the Four Red Yang Formation by himself, and with clones, made the Second Hokage, Tobirama, stunned for a long while.
The younger generation is truly formidable!
This strength completely surpassed that of their predecessors!
This was too… terrifying.
"You!"
Tobirama looked at Sasuke before him, at a loss for words.
As he was speaking, the Kage from the other villages also walked out from behind.
They looked at the Four Red Yang Formation before them and were also extremely shocked.
After all, this was a barrier that required the combined efforts of four Kage-level ninjas to cast!
And the person who cast this barrier was clearly the same person; one person alone had activated such a terrifying barrier!
"Sasuke, open an entrance for me. Anyone who is dissatisfied or has different opinions can fight me within the barrier. If you can defeat me! Then Konoha will follow their arrangements!"
Sasuke nodded. Hashirama's strength was not weak either. Dealing with these Kage, even if they all attacked together, Hashirama, while not guaranteed to win, could at least ensure he wouldn't lose.
It might just look a little messy.
Saying this, Hashirama walked in, and the Second Hokage and Third Hokage also followed him in.
Three people!
Naruto was still hesitating whether he should make a move.
Sasuke suddenly spoke, "You don't need to make a move, let me do it!"
Saying this, Sasuke also walked in directly.
Konoha now had four participants in the battle.
Looking at the other villages, Iwagakure, with the fewest Kage, also had only four people.
So, in terms of numbers, it was absolutely fair!
And the four Tsuchikage also understood Konoha's meaning.
"Konoha truly deserves to be the strongest ninja village! Is the Sixth Hokage not planning to make a move?"
The Third Raikage said, and Naruto looked back at him.
Was he trying to confirm that he wouldn't make a move, so as to establish their numerical advantage?
"I am not needed!"
Naruto just answered calmly.
The Third Raikage sneered, "As expected of the strongest ninja village. We don't have this strength. For the sake of our village, we have no choice but to go all out!"
The five Raikage from Kumogakure clearly all intended to make a move.
And the Kage from the other villages also prepared to enter.
Were they planning to attack together, using the strength of four villages to fight against Konoha?
Seeing these Kage looking as if victory was already in their grasp, Naruto smiled helplessly.
No matter how many of them there were, they couldn't possibly be Sasuke's opponent!
Not to mention Hashirama, Tobirama, and Hiruzen helping.
Even more impossible....
