Chapter 244: The Five Kage Conference
"Sorry, I'm late!"
Just as Siying was wondering who the extra seat belonged to, a voice of apology immediately attracted everyone's attention.
The four shadows and their guards looked towards the door, and saw a slim girl with white hair and wearing an old white dress walking into the meeting room accompanied by two other people wearing ancient costumes.
"The Demon Country Priestess!"
"Could it be that the demon has broken the seal?"
Looking at the girl who walked in, Siying began to guess again.
The white-haired girl who walked in first was the shrine maiden of the Demon Country. The shrine maiden of the Demon Country has always been responsible for a task that is very important to the ninja world, which is to seal monsters.
Although in the eyes of the four Kage, the Wuliang cannot really destroy the ninja world, but it is definitely a very troublesome thing. Even the five major ninja villages need to pay a great price to deal with the Wuliang. After all, it is a monster left over from ancient times, almost immortal. If it can be easily destroyed, the first generation of Hokage would have destroyed it.
After the Demon Country Miko sat down, everyone saw that there were still two empty seats, and everyone knew that in addition to the Hokage, there was another important person who was not present, and this person was not the Daimyo of the Demon Country. This made everyone speculate again.
"Sorry, I'm late!"
Just then another voice sounded.
A man wearing a black robe with red clouds and yellow hair walked into the meeting room.
"Rinnegan~!"
Seeing this man appear, everyone's eyes were filled with shock. Because the man's eyes were gray-purple and had six circles of ripples, which was the legendary Samsara Eye.
The person who came was none other than Payne.
There were two people following Pain, one was Uchiha Itachi and the other was Hoshigaki Kisame.
At this moment, even Pain was confused as to why he was invited. At present, the Akatsuki organization was not really famous yet, so it stands to reason that they would not be taken seriously and invited to attend such a meeting.
But he came anyway, because he was Payne.
"When will the Hokage arrive?"
The Raikage asked. Although the Rinnegan was shocking, they were more concerned about the major event that Mifune mentioned that was related to the survival of the ninja world.
After all, the Demon Country's priestess and the Rinnegan have both appeared, which shows that this matter is definitely not as simple as monsters breaking the seal, it is definitely several times more serious.
"The invitation has been sent, and it should arrive soon!"
Mifune said, feeling somewhat confused.
Although the Hokage will take his time in order to demonstrate the strongest ninja village's status, he will never be late.
"I'm afraid the Hokage won't be here!"
Just when Mifune was wondering why the Hokage was late, the witch of the Demon Country said helplessly.
"Hmm?" Hearing this, everyone looked at the Demon Country Miko, wondering why she said that.
"I heard that Konoha had a huge change before, but I didn't know what it was. I also sent people to investigate. Does the Demon Country priestess know anything?" The Mizukage asked immediately. He thought of what Fusu said when he met Fusu before. At that time, he had sent people to the Fire Country to inquire about the news, but before the news came back, she inexplicably overthrew the rule of the Fourth Mizukage, and then received an invitation from the Iron Country.
"Yes!" The shrine maiden of the Demon Country nodded and glanced at Mifune.
After Mifune also sat down, the Shrine Maiden of the Demon Country said, "Before I start, let me introduce myself again. I am the current Shrine Maiden of the Demon Country. The Shrine Maidens of the Demon Country have a powerful ability that has been passed down to this day, and that is to predict the future and death."
Hearing this, everyone looked at the witch of the Demon Country in surprise. Although they had heard of this matter, it had never been confirmed, so they did not take it too seriously.
But now that the Demon Country Miko herself admitted it, they couldn't help but be surprised. To predict the future was a very advantageous thing. Even Payne was very surprised at this moment.
Everyone even had their own ideas in mind. The benefits of obtaining the Demon Country Priestess were self-evident, but the threat that might be caused by not having the Demon Country Priestess under their control would be fatal to everyone.
Payne finally understood why he was invited.
The Demon Kingdom looked at the expressions of the people and knew in their hearts what they were thinking, but they didn't care. The ninja world was almost gone, why bother about this!
The Ghost Country Miko continued, "My ability used to be only able to foresee the death of people related to me, but not long ago, my ability has been strengthened to an unprecedented level, surpassing all previous Miko."
Upon hearing this, everyone quickly suppressed their surprise and anxiety and listened carefully to the story told by the witch from the Demon Country.
Obviously something very serious is happening now, otherwise the witch of the Demon Country would not self-destruct with such terrifying abilities.
The Demon Country Miko continued, "Currently, a very terrifying evil force has appeared in the Ninja World. The place where they appeared is Konoha's Death Forest. Now Konoha has suffered heavy casualties. Konoha, unable to resist, is almost disbanded, and the Hokage is dead in name only."
Hearing this, everyone was surprised again.
This news was really a great relief to them! But they were also surprised at what kind of evil force could have defeated Konoha so quickly, causing heavy casualties and making it unable to resist to the point of almost disbanding. Even they did not receive any news, which showed how fast this process was.
But no one spoke, waiting for the Demon Country Priestess to continue speaking.
The Demon Country Miko continued, "I saw in the future the end of the ninja world. The army from another world invaded. The powerful dark giants and huge monsters destroyed the whole world. There were ruins everywhere. All the ninja villages and countries no longer existed."
Hearing this, everyone widened their eyes again.
At first, Pain thought that he was being talked about, but it turned out to be an army from another world, which caught him off guard.
After digesting it for a while, Tsuchikage Ohnoki immediately asked, "Did the army from another world you mentioned appear in Konoha?"
The others also immediately sorted out their concerns and turned their eyes towards the Demon Country Miko again, each with a serious look.
Even Pain is no exception. The army of another world can achieve this level in the future, and it must be a very powerful enemy. Because he knows that he will definitely stand on the side of the Five Kage in the face of the destruction of the world. His goal is to make the world feel pain, not to destroy the world.
However, facing everyone's gaze, the Demon Country Miko shook her head. Her face was full of pain and helplessness, and in everyone's more confused expressions, she said: "Yes, and no. Although the evil forces that appeared in the Death Forest of Konoha Village are also from another world, they will leave this world in two days. What we have to deal with is ~ their subordinate forces, another army from the Sakura Star World! They are far less terrifying than those who appeared in the Death Forest!"
"this?"
After hearing this, everyone was confused for a moment. Or rather, they understood but found it difficult to digest the information.
If a subordinate force can bring destruction to the world, then how terrible must this overlord force be, and how should they fight against it.
