Outside Konoha Village,
After offering their congratulations to Kakashi, Ōnoki, Fourth Raikage, and the others wanted to return to their respective villages as soon as possible to oversee the overall situation.
After all, the Eye of the Moon Plan was very tempting, and some individuals would inevitably fall prey to it if not carefully managed.
Just before parting,
Kakashi suddenly asked, "Do you consider starting a ninja alliance from now on?"
"It's too early to start the alliance now," Ōnoki hesitated for a moment, then replied.
Fourth Raikage: "Yes, although we Kage can set aside our past grudges to sit together in a meeting for the sake of the bigger picture, the ninjas in our villages won't agree so easily!"
Terumi Mei: "The previous three great ninja wars caused our Kirigakure, Iwagakure, and Sunagakure to harbor a lot of animosity. If we don't prepare everyone mentally, they will resist even if ordered by the Mizukage!"
Gaara: "My influence in Sunagakure is also not strong enough for them to agree to unite now."
Hearing the responses from the other Kage, Kakashi felt a bit disappointed.
He always felt that these matters were best prepared in advance; otherwise, the necessary understanding wouldn't emerge when the time came, leading to significant losses on the battlefield.
But he couldn't force it.
The Ninja World was currently fortunate to be without a civil war. Expecting everyone to fight side-by-side like brothers was indeed somewhat unrealistic.
"I understand, but I still urge you all to return and make more mental preparations. The future of the Ninja World will definitely not be so peaceful!" Kakashi advised.
"Understood."
After agreeing, the Kage hurriedly returned to their villages.Three days later,
After the Kage of the villages informed the ninjas within their ranks about their plans to prepare for the Allied Shinobi Forces, a strong wave of protest erupted throughout the ninja world.
"What a joke! It's already a concession not to fight the ninjas from other villages, and now you want us to fight alongside them? I won't agree!" - Cloud Shinobi Ninja.
"The people of Iwagakure used to ambush our Kirigakure comrades during negotiations! Who would dare to fight alongside those Rock Shinobi ninja? I'm afraid they'll stab me in the back!" - Mist Shinobi ninja.
"The Cloud Shinobi ninja are arrogant and have terrible tempers! Just the thought of being with them makes me sick!" - Rock Shinobi ninja.
"Mist Shinobi's ninjas are inherently cruel and bloodthirsty! They're either perverts or lunatics! Are such people worthy of an alliance?" - Sand Shinobi ninjas.
"Sunagakure wanted to attack our Konoha Village before, and Cloud Shinobi Village even forced our Lord Hyuga Hizashi to his death! With so much hatred, how can I let it go?" - Konoha Shinobi.
After witnessing the strong dissatisfaction of their own ninjas, the Kage shook their heads helplessly.
Some things truly weren't ready until disaster struck.
In this regard,
They were powerless to intervene.
After all, the future was the future. Since they were unwilling to unite, forcing unity was useless. They could only prepare for this when everyone's mental awareness improved.
Just when the entire Ninja World felt dissatisfied with the alliance,
A new image was exposed on the screen.
[In the picture, Anko, Hyuga Tokuma, Aburame Muta, and others are investigating within a dense forest.
Suddenly, Aburame Muta said:
"There is a significant biological reaction underground, Tokuma! Down! Four directions!"
Hearing something underground, Hyuga Tokuma immediately activated his Byakugan and looked in the direction Muta indicated. When he saw the scene below, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
Because in the underground, there were nearly 100,000 white life forms, resembling people but not quite, and every single one possessed a strong chakra signature.
And these living beings appeared to be in a dormant state, all standing still.
But it was conceivable that if all of them were mobilized, it would be a massive force capable of destroying a village in an instant.]
The image ended abruptly,
In the entire Ninja World,
The ninjas who had been vehemently protesting the alliance everywhere instantly fell silent.
That was one hundred thousand White Zetsu, more than all the ninjas in their five great villages combined.
