Naruto Time Control

Chapter 218: Sabotaging Negotiations

Rainy country.

An island in the center of the lake, with an imposing tower.

At this time, the tower was surrounded by a large number of ninja who were in a state of readiness for all-out combat.

One group was centered on the east side, they were ninja from Konoha, and on the west side, there were ninja from Iwagakure, both sides eyed each other warily.

Inside the tower.

In a large room on the top floor.

In the center was a long oval-shaped table.

The third Tsuchikage, noki, sat at one end of the oval table, arms crossed, Tsuchikage's hat on the table in front of him.

"You demand to evacuate the forces and surrender the territory we have occupied for four months...it seems that Konoha will not step back."

noki snorted coldly, looked at the Konoha ninja sitting across from him and said, "You must understand that we will not accept such conditions if you do not provide us with sufficient compensation."

After saying this, noki released powerful chakra fluctuations.

As Tsuchikage of Iwagakure, even if he only emits a part of his chakra, he would exert great pressure on normal ninja, even a Jounin would feel pressured.

In front of noki sat Shinku Yuhi, an Elite Jounin of Konoha and, along with the pressure emitted by the Tsuchikage, cold sweat broke out from his forehead.

He is considered to be a rather strong ninja.

But in front of noki, whether it was status or personal power, he was completely overwhelmed in everything.

In fact, Konoha is now in a dominant position and Shinku Yuhi understood that noki would not dare to start a war easily, but his personal presence at the negotiating table created great pressure from Konoha's side.

"Konoha will not make concessions, Third Tsuchikage."

Shinku Yuhi took a deep breath and replied in a deep voice.

He does not lead these negotiations, all decisions were made by the Fifth Hokage even before they started, he only conveys Yeruashi's point of view and opinion.

"..."

noki frowned at the inflexible Shinku Yuhi.

Since even under pressure from him, the other party didn't take a single step back, it must mean that the order came from the Fifth Hokage.

The style of action, as always, is crude and direct....

That fifteen-year-old puppy has no respect for his elders!

noki frowned and fell into deep thought.

Just at this moment.

From the street suddenly loud shouts were heard, it seemed that a conflict broke out between Iwagakure ninjas and Konoha ninjas, after a few moments, an Iwagakure ninja burst into the room and immediately informed noki about the emergency: "Tsuchikage-sama! Suddenly, a large number of ninja from Konoha appeared, they are approaching here!"

"...What!"

noki exclaimed loudly, looked at Shinku Yuhi and said in a deep voice, "So this is Konoha's plan, are you going to force us to accept the terms?"

Shinku Yuhi was very surprised, he hadn't heard anything about this plan.

As he was about to leave and find out what was going on, the guard behind him shouted angrily, "Kill the Tsuchikage!!! Kill everyone!!!"

"!!"

Shinku Yuhi's expression abruptly changed.

There's something wrong here!

Such an important order couldn't reach the subordinates without bypassing the commander!

"You..."

Shinku Yuhi turned his head abruptly and saw that his subordinate had already finished performing a series of hand seals and cast a ninjutsu in noki's direction.

"Fire Jutsu: Fire Dragon Bullet!" (Katon: Karydan)

"Earth Jutsu: Earth Wall Style!" (Doton: Doryheki)

The Iwagakure ninja, standing behind noki, reacted instantly and performed a series of hand seals, forming a wall of earth that blocked the flow of flames.

noki's face twisted into an unpleasant grimace. Looking out the window, he saw dozens of Konoha ninja approaching.... Outside, a fight had broken out as well.

"He didn't intend to negotiate from the beginning..."

noki's figure rose into the air.

Although the situation may seem a bit strange, the order to attack was not given by the ninja who arrived, but by the ninja who was standing next to Shinku Yuhi, confirming the authenticity of his identity as a Konoha ninja.

Everything is obvious here!

Whoosh, whoosh!!!!

The Iwagakure ninja immediately attacked Shinku and the rest of the Konoha ninja, without giving him a chance to understand the situation.

Shinku blocked the Iwagakure ninja's attack and turned to his subordinate, "What's going on!"

"Why didn't I know about this!"

"Of course, to make it easier to deceive the Tsuchikage! This is a direct order from Hokage-sama!"

The subordinate said coldly and continued attacking the Iwagakure ninja.

noki looked at the unfolding scene and snorted coldly, "I'm afraid you're not strong enough to bury this old man here!"

Buzz!!!

noki raised his hands in front of him and a white light shone between his palms.

He then pushed his palms forward, the white glow took the shape of a cube and rushed forward, about to engulf Shinku Yuhi and the others.

"Since you dared to try to kill this old man, then.... turn to dust!"

"Jinton: Genkai Hakuri no Jutsu!" (Dust Element: Primal World Detachment Jutsu).

However.

Just as noki was about to apply the technique, a figure instantly appeared in the path of the white radiance.

The figure raised its hand, and when it calmly touched the Jinton, the white glow abruptly froze and disappeared into thin air without a trace.

"!!"

noki's eyes widened abruptly, he flinched and exclaimed in disbelief, "Impossible... my Jinton..."

The Konoha ninja and the fighting Iwagakure ninja abruptly stopped moving.

They all looked at the figure that had suddenly appeared.

This person exuded a calm atmosphere and was wearing a Hokage's cloak and hat.

Unexpectedly, it was the Fifth Hokage of Konoha, Hatake Yeruashi!

"What's going on here?"

Yeruashi slowly lowered the palm that had just dispelled the Jinton and looked at noki, then looked at the Konoha ninja and asked calmly.

Although Yeruashi was addressing Shinku, his gaze was fixed on the ninja standing next to Shinku, who had suddenly given the order to attack earlier.

At the moment of the appearance, Yeruashi's perception swept everyone here, and he could clearly sense that the ninja standing next to Shinku was radiating strong malice.

Whoosh!!!

At the moment of Yeruashi's appearance, the expression on this ninja's face changed dramatically, the kunai in his hand was wrapped in a white glow, it struck in the direction of Yeruashi, who appeared nearby.

Shinku Yuhi immediately reacted to this move, blocked the kunai with one hand and then kicked it, sending the Kunai flying backwards and exclaimed loudly, "Who are you?"

Someone was trying to interrupt his negotiations with Iwagakure!

If this person attacked the Hokage, then he is clearly not a Konoha ninja, and the above command must also be false, most likely his goal was to force Konoha and Iwagakure to resume the war!

Shinku Yuhi couldn't be sure if this person was still one of his men or not, but he had either been replaced or was under someone's control!
