Complaint Conference

"Minatsuki, what are you talking about, why can't I understand?"

"Tsunade-neesan, until now, there are some things I can't hide, I have to tell you... In fact, I suffered from a trisomy 21 called vena cava occlusion caused by varicose veins. I have to find someone who can take good care of them... Makoto's popularity with women is too bad. And I believe that only you can do this..."

... ...

Just after the matter of the Land of Grass was over, Kumo came to kill him again, which really didn't make people stop at all.

But it's also good.

Struggling with the sky brings endless joy; struggling with the earth brings endless joy; striving with people brings endless joy.

Kumo's counterattack is not only a crisis, but also Makoto's best opportunity to gather the entire ninja world.

The current Five Kages Summit is of course just a toilet, which makes everyone quarrel endlessly. But if used well, it can also enhance the relationship between each other.

Unlike before, there is not even a diplomat. No matter what you do, you can only rely on intelligence to guess blindly.

Objectively speaking, it actually shortens the distance between the five Great Hidden Villages.

... Yagura this guy is very interesting.

After Makoto came out of the dog door of his home, he put on the kage robe and brought Kakashi to the venue of the Five Kages Summit.

The previous Five Kages Summit was in a horrible state. The war had just ended and everyone was poor, so they could only improvise.

But the situation is different now, there is no need to fight now, and Konoha has more funds, so the entire Five Kages Summit site has been re-established.

The entire Five Kages Assembly Building was three times larger than before. Because of the sufficient funds, the entire Five Kages Building looked quite modern. It can be said that the windows are bright and clean, which makes people's eyes shine.

In fact, the Five Kage Building has now become Konoha's landmark building, second only to the Hokage Building.

The overall structure of the whole building is pentagonal, taking the meaning of the five Hidden Villages. Even if other Hidden Villages have opinions on Konoha, they have to admit that the design concept of the Five Kage Building is quite advanced. When put together with other buildings in Hidden Village, it has a sense of standing out from the crowd – Except that the Godaime often dislikes that it has only five floors, which is still a bit short.

But if you dislike it, it's disgusting, Makoto also knows that there are many things that can't be helped... Take it slow.

Makoto was the last important member of the Five Great Hidden Village to arrive.

When he arrived, the diplomats from other Hidden Villages had brought their deputies and were whispering with some small local forces.

Under Makoto's structure, even if they didn't really join the Five Great Hidden Village and its affiliated forces, all the big and small forces from all over the world could come and listen.

Makoto has been using various methods to increase the influence of the Five Shadows Summit.

If small powers are willing to come, he welcomes them.

Of course, small powers can only sit in and not have the right to vote.

But as far as the current situation is concerned, the small powers don't count on any voting rights.

For them, it is thankful to be able to perceive some trends in Great Hidden Village in advance and make precautions or investments in advance.

Makoto scanned the venue and found that there were many more people than last time. Many faces looked at Makoto cautiously, but no one stepped forward to talk recklessly.

"There are many more people than before... This is a good thing... When the place is full of people, we, Konoha, will be successful."

Although it is very difficult, the big and small forces in the ninja world are indeed slowly improving their understanding of each other.

"Yes, we've been working towards that... let's just start right now?"

Makoto didn't answer directly, but scanned the crowd in front of him one by one.

According to their respective forces and closeness, the current venue is roughly divided into five camps.

The biggest of these is of course the Konoha camp.

Konoha was originally the strongest Hidden Village, and now it is the host, and it is developing strongly. The small forces naturally tend to Konoha the most.

Not to mention that Ryusei, the representative of the Land of Grass, is still talking in it, using himself as an example to attract other small forces to join this camp – I am not lying to you, following Konoha, there is really meat to eat!

Because of Ryusei's testimony, the small powers are ready to move.

However, due to the necessary caution, the small forces still did not come to invest directly – if there is such a trend, it is already great news.

After all, this is just the beginning.

Straight loyalty will eventually need to beg for food, while treacherous and cunning eat at night and fry at night.

Someone will always vote with their feet.

The closest big force to the Konoha camp is naturally Suna.

Backed by the weakest Land of wind, the condition of Suna has always been very bad. Fortunately, Suna has now formed an alliance with Konoha, and while losing its greatest enemy, it has also gained a lot of benefits.

In particular, the establishment of the United Fruits earlier brought the relationship between Konoha and Suna a step further.

Sensing Makoto's gaze, Pakura, who was located in the center of the Suna camp, raised the dango and gestured slightly to Makoto.

Kage would not leave Hidden Village casually, let alone Kazekage who needs to make money for the village.

In the Five Kages Summit, Pakura was the speaker of the entire Sunagakure Group.

With the relationship between the two, no matter what proposal Makoto puts forward, Pakura will follow.

It's just that this woman is eating dango all day long... Isn't she afraid of eating like Anko?

After moving his eyes away from Pakura, Makoto looked at his old opponent's camp.

Needless to say, Iwa and Kumo.

Don't know what happened today, but the former Kumo diplomat turned into Jinchuuriki Nii Yugito at this time.

Kumo's bosses, don't you care?

Jinchuuriki from your family ran out.

This Jinchuuriki is much sharper than the previous Kumo diplomat.

Even though the former diplomats wanted to strangle Makoto to death immediately, they still maintained diplomatic courtesy after all. As for Nii Yugito... the deep dark circles on this woman's face are like cultivating immortality for more than twenty hours a day, and the malice in it is even more overflowing...

Makoto whispered with Kakashi beside him.

"What's the situation with Yugito? Does Kumo care? Are they not afraid that we will detain their Jinchuuriki?"

"The situation on Kumo's side is more complicated. For some reasons, they have not been able to choose a new Raikage. It seems that the conflict between the factions is very fierce. It's just that the two sides have a tacit understanding and did not escalate the conflict... The specific situation can only be clarified by obtaining several new Kumo rouge-nins."

Makoto lowered his eyes, and when he raised them again, he already figured out the reason.

No money.

Kumo didn't have any money, so the factions on both sides voluntarily gave up the struggle and chose to make money first.

It is indeed crucial to compete for the position of Raikage, but before that, they have to recover and come out slowly.

The wonders of the world are simply omnipresent.

Makoto had some plans in his mind again, but he didn't say it out, but looked at Iwa and Kiri.

Sensing Makoto's gaze, Iwa glared at him viciously at first, and then quietly looked away, with a guilty look.

And Kirigakure...how did Kirigakure diplomat become Terumi Mei?

Makoto has a lot of things to do, but he still doesn't forget such an important thing. He clearly remembered that Kirigakure's diplomat was... Yagura, is he trying to mess around again?

Just right, let's play with you.

After a quick glance around, Makoto already knew what was going on.

At this moment, Yugito who noticed Makoto's arrival not only did not avoid it, but walked towards him instead.

"Hokage-sama."

"Yugito-san, do you have any advice?"

"I heard that you left Konoha for a while and went to Kusagakure, where you caused a lot of trouble... There is no doubt that you have violated the charter of the Five Kages Summit. Are you going to explain something?"

What Makoto did was indeed a violation of the order to have nothing to do.

But he wasn't worried.

Great powers are still afraid of each other and will give each other face.

A big country bullying a small country, do you still have to report it to you? When filling out the general order, the bastard Yagura stuffed the back door inside.

It's not that other Hidden Villages can't see it, it's just that for some unspoken reasons, everyone doesn't expose it.

After all, it is the strong who build the world system, not the weak.

Konoha can choose a back door from inside at random, and he can skip the total safety order.

It's just that in that case, everyone's face will be ugly.

And it is foreseeable that the two villages of Iwa and Kumo will definitely follow up and investigate, which will put Konoha at an extremely disadvantageous position in terms of public opinion.

That's why Makoto had so much preparatory work before.

You should give me a reason anyway, if you don't even give a reason, the younger brothers will feel very insecure.

Makoto knew that he could justify himself.

But no matter how he argued, it was Konoha's fault.

The more he argues, the more leverage Kumo has.

So...

"It's rare for everyone to be together, let's have a meal first?"

"Don't eat! Discuss the problem first!"

Growl...

Yugito's stomach began to growl.

Makoto looked at this poor stubborn sister with pity.

"Let's eat first."

"Don't eat!"

Growl...

"Let's eat first."

"Don't eat..."

Makoto looked at Yugito with pity.

Yugito's eyes are sharp and stubborn, but...

"Then let's eat first... Discuss the problem immediately after eating!"

... ...

Godaime Hokage announced that they would eat first, and then hold a meeting to discuss issues.

The small powers are naturally happy, after all, they have nothing to do with them, so it's good to have lunch for nothing.

The other four Great Hidden Villages objected and agreed. But after the diplomats on both sides of Iwa and Kumo looked at each other, they finally chose to eat first.

Eat Konoha poor!

With this hateful thought in mind, the two diplomat-donos, decided to feast on it. Eat back all the losses from Konoha in one go.

Makoto is naturally not afraid of challenges.

Then, Konoha's kitchen began to serve dishes.

Before Makoto took the stage, Konoha's kitchen meals were very simple. Although it is not as simple as Tokugawa Ieyasu, it also highlights a green and organic... If you don't have money, save as much as you can, and everyone can enjoy the taste.

T/N: Tokugawa leysasu, born as Matsudaira Takechiyo, the founder and the first shogun of Tokugawa Shogunate

No matter how big a Hidden Village is, funds are always limited. Compared with the two eternal bottomless pits of medical treatment and armaments, the appetite of ninjas is not so important.

If really couldn't bear it, you can go outside for extra meals.

The taste of Konoha's ramen is still very good, especially the Ichiraku ramen. After the Rokudaime and Nanadaime Hokage tasted it, they all agreed.

... Anyway, that's the case.

But after Makoto came to power, the situation will definitely change.

There was no condition before, but now... Anyway, let him eat pickled vegetables and dried fish every day, he will really go crazy.

As a matter of course, the Konoha food improvement plan was pushed onto the stage.

In addition to going to the Land of Fire to invite chefs from all walks of life to join in and improve the overall strength of the chefs, Makoto is also experimenting with various buffets in the village.

There is no buffet in Konoha.

It's not that the merchants didn't expect it, it's just that Konoha's bad ninjas are too glutinous – Even if you don't talk about the bastards of Akimichi clan, the ninja's chakra is a combination of spiritual and physical energy, and physical energy must be obtained from food...

Where a large number of ninjas gather, no matter how powerful a profiteer comes to open a buffet, he will never return.

So Makoto used financial subsidies to solve this problem.

Compared with the consumption of the ninjas, he paid more attention to the morale of the ninjas – it is wonderful to have a good meal after a hard battle.

The beauty and the swordsman brought barbecue, who wouldn't be excited.

Not only that, but he also used missions to ask the Chunins and Genins to go to the big forest near Konoha to find a lot of edible ingredients.

Let's not talk about whether the Japanese food is exquisite or not, but there must be a problem in terms of quantity. There are many large and small animals in this big forest next to Konoha. The only problem is that many foods look dark... It doesn't matter if it is dark, just study slowly.

Many animals just look unpalatable, but not necessarily really unpalatable.

Crabs are also ugly, and stonefish are also ugly.

But when the chef thinks about it, these can be turned into delicious delicacies.

It has to be said that the various chefs who were invited here are really talented. Developed a lot of new foods that look dark but are inexplicably delicious...not looking up at the starry sky...that's still too dark...

One lunch, eat directly from eleven o'clock to three or four in the afternoon. But the kitchen is always continuous, without stopping.

Yugito originally came here with the intention of making Makoto look 'good', but the food was served far faster than she could eat.

Konoha's kitchen was not overwhelmed by her, but her own little stomach couldn't bear it.

After eating so much at once, stomach turned into a watermelon belly, and mind became even more groggy, extremely lazy, and didn't want to do anything anymore.

She has really worked so hard these days, and now that she has been happy for a while, she has relaxed too much, and even her hatred for Makoto has subsided a lot.

This guy is a scumbag, and his generosity is really generous.

Yugito couldn't help thinking about it.

No – this is Makoto's sugar-coated cannonball!

Yugito soon realized this.

She swore in her heart that she would never surrender to Makoto!

Makoto was well aware of what this stubborn sister was thinking, but he didn't expose it, but started chatting with everyone while the dishes were exhausted.

Iwa, Kiri, and Yugito originally wanted to object. But now they're too full, and their brain was a little unresponsive – there's nothing can be done, the condition of the village is not good, and they themselves respect patience, so the usual diet can be imagined.

Except that Kirigakure is better, in order to save money, Iwagakure and Yugito are hard-pressed by eating Soldier Pills.

Originally, they wanted to find Konoha stubble, but now they ate too much, so they couldn't open their mouth. In the end, they just followed Makoto, let's see what he wants to do.

Makoto didn't say anything serious, but just gave Ryusei a look.

Ryusei understood, and immediately began to complain loudly.

He scolded the leader of the Land of Grass, facing the delicacies in front of him, he talked about the various injustices that the Land of Grass did to ninjas. Calling them scum, bastards, bastards, and parasites – yes, Makoto should hold a complaint meeting.

He wants to wake up the ninjas' unhappiness and awaken their sense of resistance.

Why can't they be the masters of the country with such big fists?

What do the Daimyos have? Can they use Sage Mode, or will they have super Kekkei genkai?

This is usually a taboo, and no one dares to say it.

The relationship between Hidden Village and the country is very delicate, not a simple dependency relationship.

Even if the ninjas knew that daimyos usually eat hot and spicy food, they would not say it. But now... the people who came to the meeting this time were all ninjas, not ordinary people!

Under the urging of alcohol, some words that were aggrieved in my heart are now spoken out naturally.

Ryusei was a small person before, and he didn't care much about what he said. It was just right for him to speak at this time. He started scolding alone, and the people behind him were naturally moved.

Everyone felt that it shouldn't matter if they opened their mouths at this time.

Snitching... Who would dare to make a small report at a time like this? Everyone is drinking and bragging, what's wrong?

Here Ryusei complained, and Suna immediately followed up and said Hua-q. Kirigakure wanted to endure it at first, but in the end he couldn't help scolding his mother. Iwa also patted the table when he remembered what happened in the past.

T/N: 'Hua-q', translated-word-by-word, 'Flower-q', the definition is "fuck you"

Yugito originally didn't want to follow up.

At the very least, she doesn't want to follow Makoto's train of thought.

Good things never happen when this bastard smiles.

He is always smiling.

But when carrying out the task before, I encountered too many bad things. As the pillar force of Kumogakure, she has endured unparalleled pressure.

She could tell herself before that the ninja just had to endure these things. But now seeing everyone scolding, she couldn't bear it anymore.

"Fuck, those bastards! –

"It is clear that the price of the good gifts is the same. This rule is not a day or two. It has been this rule for so many years, and they have come here like this. They have never suffered a disadvantage! –

"Isn't it just a defeat? Tell me, don't let us give it away, we have to change to other ninjas. We want to keep them, so we ask us to lower the commission – it's already cheap enough, what else do they want?! –

"A while ago, some important person in the Land of Thunder asked me to personally escort two dogs to a place. Not to mention the low price, they are ugly. –

"I saw that one of the dogs looked like the daimyo of the Land of Earth, and the other was like Daimyo's wife of the Land of Earth! And then peed on me. I really..."

Confused, everyone kept complaining.

While talking, Yugito even forgot the goal of dealing with Makoto.

She kept complaining about the humiliation she had received these days, and the resentment towards the nobles in her heart became more and more concentrated.

She knew that she shouldn't say these things, but she didn't know whether it was the wine that made people fall drunk, or the people who got drunk from the wine...

Everyone complained together until the sun went down.

But at this time, Makoto signaled to withdraw the food.

"Okay, the food is almost done...Let's talk about the situation in the Land of Grass."

– It's the first time, it's almost enough, it's not good to talk lightly.

For Makoto, as long as someone opened the head once, that's enough.

However for others...

This feeling of stopping is extremely uncomfortable.

People can't forget it in a short time.

Obviously everyone has started to put down their guard and complain, why did you start talking about the main topic?

But Makoto is Hokage after all...

Yugito pulled herlsef together, temporarily suppressed her dissatisfaction, and began to think about how to fight Makoto.
