Chapter 220: The High Council Before the War
Minato teleported back to the Hokage building with Kakashi and Shisui to a closed conference room.
As soon as they arrived, the immature Kakashi and Shisui were shocked.
There were already several people sitting in the conference room.
Jiraiya, Orochimaru, Tsunade, Fugaku, Hiashi, and Minato.
In other words, all the current high-ranking officials of Konoha were present!
What big thing happened?
Was it now their turn to participate in this high-level summit?
"Sensei? This?"
"You two stand aside for now, and you'll understand soon."
Kakashi stood still and showed his professional ANBU quality.
Shisui was a little restless and immediately looked at Fugaku.
The latter forced a smile, and Shisui felt much more relieved.
Being able to force a smile from that paralyzed patriarch proved that this wasn't something bad against the Uchiha Clan.
Soon, this high-level meeting was officially held. As the meeting began, the big news spread.
"According to intelligence just received, Sunagakure Village was again attacked unexpectedly yesterday afternoon. The Fourth Kazekage Rasa was killed on the spot by the attackers, along with over a dozen elite Sunagakure Anbu and Jonin."
"Including the Ichibi Jinchūriki who was kidnapped a few days ago, Sunagakure Village has suffered a heavy blow this time."
Jiraiya reported the latest information.
Everyone took a deep breath, the news was indeed hot.
This was almost equivalent to a foreign assassin breaking into the capital of a superpower, taking their nuclear weapons, and not feeling satisfied, then returning every few days, killing the president of another party in public, and then leaving.
This was even more embarrassing than riding on Sunagakure's face and defecating!
Furthermore, the theft of the Jinchūriki could be hidden for a while. But the Fourth Kazekage was killed in public, this couldn't be hidden. Sunagakure Village is now in chaos, and the news is expected to spread throughout the ninja world soon.
"Who did it?" Hiashi asked immediately.
"It's said that the attackers have a pair of Sharingan eyes!"
"Hisss...!"
Hiashi and Shisui, who didn't know the truth, immediately looked at Fugaku, inevitably surprised.
Fugaku had a flat face and didn't look at Hiashi kindly.
"What are you looking at? Do you think I did it?"
The Uchiha Clan and the Hyuga Clan are now in a competitive relationship and shouldn't be united.
What do they want to do if they join forces?
Rebellion against Minato?
At this time, Minato directly told the truth:
"The killer is Uchiha Obito, my student."
He then briefly explained Obito's situation and plans.
Shisui and the others were stunned for a moment.
Initially, they thought that the previous battle between Konoha and Kumogakure and Amegakure was a duel and power grab between the old and new generations of Hokage forces.
They didn't expect that there was a bigger black hand hiding behind it!
In a short time, Obito was trained into an expert who could control Kyuubi and even kill the Kazekage alone.
Jiraiya looked at Minato with surprise, but he didn't expect Minato to directly reveal Obito.
Minato nodded in response, indicating that he knew what he was thinking.
Now that the situation has developed like this, there's nothing left to hide. Besides, no one in the conference room was an outsider.
Fugaku is the leader of the Uchiha Clan, Minato is Obito's teacher, Jiraiya is Minato's teacher, Orochimaru is Jiraiya's teammate, Kakashi is also Obito's teammate, Shisui is also a member of the Uchiha Clan.
Everyone here except the head of the Hyuga Clan.
Everyone more or less has a relationship with Obito, near or far. So there's nothing to worry about.
Only Hiashi moved his lips slightly and looked around, somehow feeling ostracized.
Fortunately, his wife gave birth to a daughter, while the others gave birth to sons. The Hyuga Clan has a bright future, so stay stable.
Wherever Minato points in the future is the goal that the Hyuga Clan must strive for!

Shisui was also stunned and looked at Kakashi beside him.
Only then did he understand why Kakashi was so depressed. It turned out that his best friend had betrayed the village and even led the Kyuubi Rebellion!
Kakashi also bit his lip, clenched his fist, and listened carefully.
He was worried that Konoha's top management would make a unanimous decision and decide to kill Obito!
"Is this kid crazy?"
"Isn't his goal to gather all the Bijuu? Why did he go back to Sunagakure Village to kill the Kazekage in public after he clearly took the Jinchūriki?" Fugaku asked with a frown.
"This isn't simple. He might want to incite Sunagakure Village's hatred towards Konoha. Whose Uchiha ninja is it? Everyone in the ninja world knows it clearly!"
Orochimaru sneered while immersing himself in studying forbidden techniques.
He knew Obito's intentions in a flash.
In fact, if it weren't for Minato's request, he would spend 24 hours a day in the laboratory researching and learning, and how would he have time to attend such a meeting.
"Bastard! He's using the Uchiha name to cause trouble again!"
Fugaku's face turned dark and he slammed the table. His perception of Obito was much worse.
The Kyuubi Rebellion caused by this kid almost killed Minato's couple, causing all the investments he had made over the years to be in vain.
This also caused the Uchiha Clan to be hated.
Now Obito is actually using the Uchiha name to kill people again, bringing hatred to Konoha and the Uchiha Clan.
It's truly unbearable!
Of course, that anger also showed the Uchiha Clan's firm stance.
"Then what should we do now? Do we need to explain it to Sunagakure Village?"
Tsunade didn't bother using her brain and asked directly.
"Explanation is useless. After losing the Jinchūriki and Kazekage, no matter whether Sunagakure Village has evidence proving that Konoha did it or not, they will hate Konoha. Unless we can capture Ichibi and send it back, then we can compensate Sunagakure Village for the huge loss."
Orochimaru shook his head and laughed, he knew this aspect of human nature very well.
As for sending Ichibi back and giving a large amount of compensation?
That was even more impossible.
No matter how good Minato was, he couldn't cut Konoha's funds and give them to another enemy village.
If it were Tobirama or Orochimaru, they would take the opportunity to send troops to Sunagakure Village and flatten it while they were weak!
"Isn't it very dangerous there with Danzo?" Jiraiya frowned.
If Sunagakure Village hates Konoha even more, the old Danzo who is disguised there will be in greater danger.
"He can only choose to believe in himself."
Minato shook his head in response, he had no time to worry about Danzo now.
Danzo could only rely on himself.

"If Obito's target is all the Bijuu, does that mean he'll also attack other villages?" Fugaku asked.
Minato nodded: "Yes. He won't stop until all the Bijuu are gathered!"
"Then what should we do? Warn some other villages? Or send forces to support?"
Minato frowned and immediately rejected it:
"It's impossible to send troops! Konoha doesn't have enough forces to support them. For the reminder, a few days ago, I sent a message on behalf of the Hokage to remind them."
"But unfortunately, judging from their reply, they all ignored the warning and even mocked it."
If it weren't for Minato witnessing the destruction of Uzushiogakure Village, he might have hesitated to help Kirigakure, Kumogakure, and Iwagakure.
But because he witnessed and knew that the three of them were perpetrators of genocide, Minato never thought of supporting them.
Joke.
His wife's clan members were all killed by them, and he still saved them?
How cruel?
If Kushina knew about it later, she might never be able to sleep in the same bed with him for the rest of her life!
Being able to send a message to remind them was the biggest concession he could make from Konoha's point of view. Whether they believe it or not, whether they will be lucky?
It's all your own fault, and you can only bear it yourself.
Minato's love and tenderness were always limited to his own family, not his enemies.
