However, the shadows of the great country ninja villages are still holding their meeting here. They have mutually agreed that they must not relax vigilance and must even increase the alertness of each ninja village.
"Be extra careful!"
The Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, spoke with some concern: "Future identity checks must be stricter to prevent anyone from secretly infiltrating like Akihara Kagura..."
"That's right."
The Fourth Raikage, A, nodded and said gravely, "Should the orphanages in the major ninja villages be abolished? This could also prevent outsiders from using adoption by orphanages as a means to infiltrate the Ninja World!"
"This..."
The Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, hesitated.
After all...
The threat posed by this infiltration method is indeed significant.
But...
If the orphanages are abolished...
What will happen to the real orphans of the Ninja World?
To prevent someone from infiltrating through orphanages, should we ignore those true orphans? Ordinary ninjas in the Ninja World don't have the insight to discern whether an orphan is a normal child or an outsider...
"Rest assured."
A familiar voice rang out within the meeting room.
A familiar figure sat atop the beam, speaking with interest: "You don't need to worry. If there are any more outsiders, they likely won't be as softhearted as I am; they'd probably directly invade and kill everyone here..."
"How come..."
"The voice sounds somewhat familiar..."
The Five Kage muttered, and suddenly they all looked up to see the familiar figure sitting on the beam in the meeting room.
"Akihara Kagura!"
A kind of long-lost fear swept through them! The last time they were this afraid was during the Five Kage Summit in the Hidden Rain Village, and now Akihara Kagura appears again!
"Akihara Kagura..."
Tsunade clenched her hand into a fist!
Because she had personally seen Akihara Kagura being sealed!
When did he break free from the seal, and why did he appear at the Five Kage Summit this time?
The last time he appeared at the Five Kage Summit, he made his puppet, Salamander Hanzo, the commander-in-chief of the Ninja Alliance, and Tsunade is worried what conspiracy Akihara Kagura might have this time!
"Don't move."
The terrifying Chakra emanating from Akihara Kagura instantly forced everyone to stop in place!
"If you have any questions, go ask Sasuke or Jiraiya-sensei later."
Akihara Kagura leisurely floated down from the beam and spoke: "I didn't plan on showing up in front of you, but hearing this, I felt I should say a few more words to prevent you from always focusing on the orphanages..."
"Let me tell you a truth..."
"Actually, I was never a child from the orphanage..."
"..."
The Five Kage were scared out of their wits, unable to speak and unable to move.
Even...
These people felt they were once again caught in a massive conspiracy.
"You came here..."
Tsunade raised her head to look at Akihara Kagura and asked gravely: "What exactly is your purpose?"
"I just wanted to see you all again... after all, we have been dealing with each other for such a long time..."
Akihara Kagura looked at the Five Kage, whose faces were either pale or iron-blue, seemingly with a hint of a smile: "Until we meet again, it was nice to see you all. I hope you are happy to see me too..."
"Goodbye..."
After finishing his words, Akihara Kagura vanished without a trace under everyone's gaze.
On the Hokage Rock.
Otsutsuki Kaguya stood on the Hokage Rock, overlooking this small village.
Karin, Uchiha Madara, Senju Hashirama, Senju Tobirama, Red Sand Sasori, and White Zetsu Awei stood by her side, also gazing at this village, which has left a long history in the Ninja World and is the village where many have struggled all their lives.
Perhaps they may never have the opportunity to return in the future.
Before the gathering, Orochimaru specifically went to see his disciple, Mitarashi Anko, checking the Curse Seal of Heaven on her to prevent himself from dying in another world in the future.
"I thought Kaguya-sama would want to see her son..."
Akihara Kagura appeared beside them with Orochimaru, his gaze falling on Kaguya.
"Hagoromo... has long lost his human side..."
Otsutsuki Kaguya shook her head; she did not wish to see her son, only to look back at Akihara Kagura who appeared beside him: "I no longer want to see him. Take me away from this world..."
"Then let's go."
Akihara Kagura stood on the Hokage Rock, taking one last look at the village where he had lived for over a decade.
"Living in this world was actually quite joyful..."
"I hope the next world will be happy to see us..."
