I just returned to Konoha and found that all my clan members were gone.

"The matter of Iwagakure has finally come to an end. Kakashi, are you getting used to your new eyes?"

Tsunade let out a breath and said to Kakashi who had just returned from Amegakure.

"Yes, the handover of the hostages has been completed. The yellow soil and black soil have all returned to Iwagakure. As for me, I have no adverse reactions and have fully adapted to the new environment."

Kakashi replied, touching his left eye.

"I never thought that the cause of the Fourth Hokage was Uchiha Obito. Kakashi, you should have told me this information from the beginning."

Tsunade only found out about this after Kakashi's eyes were taken away. At the beginning, Kakashi only called Asuma and Guy alone, and no one in the village knew about Obito's arrival.

Kakashi was silent for a moment before he argued.

"I'm sorry, it's mainly because I couldn't believe it when I got the information..."

"The source of this information is Uchiha Ye Lan, right..."

Thinking of this unruly kid, Tsunade felt angry and hateful. She hated him for lifting the veil of Konoha, and she was angry that he made the decision on his own without discussing it with her.

"Can you contact him now?"

Without waiting for Tsunade to continue asking, Kakashi answered directly, "I am very sorry, Hokage-sama. Since Ye Lan left the village, he only told me this matter. I don't know anything else."

Tsunade looked at Kakashi's expression repeatedly, and finally sighed and waved her hand to indicate that she understood.

If she doesn't even trust Kakashi now, then she will have no one to use in Konoha.

Kakashi said as he recalled some memories before leaving.

"There is one more thing, Hokage-sama. A yellow earth jonin of Iwagakure has lost a hand. Because it has been too long, the original hand has been destroyed. The medical level of Iwagakure is unable to restore it, so the Tsuchikage asked Konoha for help."

Anyway, he already owes Konoha a big favor, and Ohnoki doesn't care about this little bit of face. He can't just let Huangtu go to waste.

"I know about this matter. Let Huang Tu come to Konoha himself later."

Tsunade casually said that she would definitely not go to the Iwagakure Village for this matter, and that Huangtu would need to come here himself.

Kakashi nodded. He just let Tsunade know about this matter and he didn't need to worry about it afterwards. When he was about to open the office door, there was a knock on the door.

Kakashi opened the door and saw Shikamaru standing at the door with some reports.

"Kakashi-sensei?"

Shikamaru didn't expect that it was Kakashi who opened the door for him. It was really a coincidence, so he greeted him in surprise.

"Ah, I didn't expect it to be Shikamaru? He really has become more responsible after becoming a jonin. I heard from Asuma that the factory is doing pretty well."

Kakashi quipped.

"Don't laugh at me, Kakashi-sensei."

"You can go find Lady Tsunade. I don't have much to do here."

Seeing that Shikamaru was busy with work, Kakashi patted Shikamaru on the shoulder and left the office without further greeting.

Hearing the conversation at the door, Tsunade also realized who the visitor was and asked directly.

"Shikamaru, the factory should have started working, what's going on here?"

Shikamaru did not answer directly. He handed the plan that Takuma gave him to Tsunade before saying, "Hokage, please take a look at this first. It was given to me by the chief engineer of Yugakure."

After a long while, Tsunade read the plan again and again, and said with some disbelief.

"Are you sure this plan was proposed by Yuyin?"

"Hokage-sama, it is also stamped with the seal of Amegakure and the autograph of Hanzo..."

Not to mention Tsunade, even Shikamaru couldn't believe the conditions proposed by Yuyin. They were too generous, making people doubt their authenticity.

"Call the consultants. I want to hear their ideas."

So sometimes consultants are still useful. When Tsunade was hesitant, she thought of consultants first.

Shikamaru quickly invited those consultants over again. As all the core members of Konoha arrived, Shikamaru stood obediently in the corner and did not express any opinions.

The entire plan was passed to each consultant in turn for review, and they all looked surprised when they saw the conditions given by Yuyin.

After all the consultants had finished reading, Tsunade asked, "Tell me, can you tell what Yugakure's purpose is?"

Utatane Koharu spoke first, "Tsunade, I think you're overthinking. Amegakure is trying to show us good will."

Facing Tsunade's somewhat puzzled expression, Utatane Koharu said confidently, "After all, Amegakure is also a village surrounded by three major countries. We have already completely offended Iwagakure, and Sunagakure is currently our ally. Even though we helped Iwagakure last time, they could only swallow their anger, and they were afraid of offending us in return."

"They don't have..."

Some of Baiyun Yeshan's consultants belonged to the civilian faction, and their words had never carried any weight, but at this moment they could not help but say the word "no dignity".

Everyone present understood what Ye Shan wanted to say, and Rizu said something rare, "This is the sadness of a small country."

"But will Hanzo really make such a decision?"

As Tsunade who had once been defeated by Hanzo, she knew very well that Hanzo was not just a show-off.

Kakashi had previously reported to her that they had seen Hanzo get angry with their own eyes in Amegakure, and the pressure he put on her was no less than what they themselves felt. Could such a person really let go of his dignity?

Mitomon En seemed to have thought of something, and said with some emotion, "Tsunade, you have to understand that even Hanzo is old, and he could still maintain a little dignity during World War II. For the current Yugakure, being alive is more important than dignity."

Tsunade remained silent. This sentence reminded her of her former teacher, Sarutobi Hiruzen. When people get old, they become afraid of everything. What Mito Kado En said makes sense.

However, Lu Jiu, who had not expressed any opinion, frowned. He never believed in such things as pie falling from the sky. In his opinion, any good intentions without reason hid unknown purposes. He really could not accept the statements of the two consultants.

"Shikaku, do you think Yugakure has any purpose?"

Tsunade looked at Shikaku beside her. It was Shikaku who made the decision about assisting Iwagakure before, and she wanted to know what Shikaku thought.

Shikaku couldn't really see anything wrong with the plan, so he tapped his forehead with his fingers and said, "I'm sorry, Hokage-sama, but I don't see any problems."

Mitokado En and Utane Koharu, who were sitting on the other side, both breathed a sigh of relief. They had felt a sense of crisis after Tsunade chose to listen to Shikaku last time, but fortunately the result did not have much impact on them.

If Lu Jiu comes up with any ideas this time that cause this cooperation to fall through, they will really have to visit Lu Jiu's house a few more times.

Seeing the looks of the two consultants, a hint of disgust flashed across her eyes, and then Shikaku continued.

"There is no problem with the plan, but we must understand the current strength of Yugakure. In addition to Hanzo and the combat vehicle, Yugakure now also has an incredible ninja, which we need to focus on."

"Are you talking about those Rain Ninjas who came to Konoha last time?"

As long as they can continue to provide financial support to the advisors, they don't care about these things. No matter how powerful the ninja is, can they compare with Konoha?

Shikaku nodded and spoke slowly.

"Yes, especially the Rain Village jonin named Lanye."
