Chapter 263 - Chapter 264: A Meeting to Decide the Future of the Ninja World

Calming his excitement, Kageyama Kogetsu deactivated the nine-tomoe Rinnegan-Sharingan on his forehead.

It ruined his looks and didn't fit his aesthetic. Being like Erlang Shen was more his style.

"Lord Hokage, I hope you use your power carefully and don't abuse it," the Sage of Six Paths said solemnly.

"This power will be used to protect the Earth and strike hard at invaders and those who disrupt peace," Kageyama Kogetsu said with a smile.

"That would be best," the Sage of Six Paths smiled.

As for the definition of those who disrupt peace being in Kageyama Kogetsu's hands, that didn't matter.

This was the privilege of the strong. Such a statement was already quite good.

"Farewell, Lord Hokage."

"Take care, Senior Six Paths."

The Sage of Six Paths sent the small Tailed Beasts to the ground, and after a brief farewell, vanished, returning directly to the Pure Land.

Kageyama Kogetsu turned his gaze to the small Tailed Beasts, who immediately became nervous and apprehensive...

"Don't be afraid. I, Kageyama Kogetsu, keep my word."

"Those who want to leave can leave. Those who don't can stay."

"But I advise you to wait until I settle the war and spread the news throughout the ninja world before leaving. Otherwise, you might encounter trouble."

The nine small Tailed Beasts looked at each other and, after communicating secretly, decided to heed his advice.

Although they had life-saving measures granted by the Old Man, as long as Kageyama Kogetsu didn't go back on his word, staying by his side was undoubtedly the safest option for now.

It was a good opportunity to familiarize themselves with the life-saving measures, lest they capsize in the gutter when encountering malicious ninja.

"Inoichi."

Far away on Battlefield C, Kageyama Kogetsu, with a thought, established contact with Yamanaka Inoichi, the captain of the communication unit at the Allied Forces Headquarters, without needing anyone else as a relay.

"Lord Hokage," Yamanaka Inoichi said respectfully.

"Immediately send a message to the Allied Shinobi Forces, saying..."

"The Masked Man has been arrested by me, and Madara Uchiha has returned to the Pure Land. The situation is settled, victory is in sight. Tell them to speed up the clearing of the remaining enemies."

Although Madara Uchiha had also done some bad things, Kageyama Kogetsu didn't detest him as much as Obito.

To be honest, if Hashirama Senju had followed Madara Uchiha's idea back then and joined forces to crush the other ninja villages, there wouldn't have been so much trouble later.

Although Madara Uchiha didn't have the idea of attacking the various countries, but only wanted to defeat the other ninja villages and let Konoha dominate the ninja world, it was still a prototype of the unification concept.

As a transmigrator from an ancient country, Kageyama Kogetsu naturally had a fondness for the concept of great unification, to the point of extending his affection to those associated with it.

Regarding the attack on his women, Madara Uchiha most likely knew about it but didn't do it himself, showing some demeanor of a powerhouse.

Considering he was once a powerhouse of his generation and had a similar concept of great unification, Kageyama Kogetsu decided to give him a relatively decent ending.

"Yes, Lord Hokage!" Yamanaka Inoichi said respectfully and joyfully.

"Also, notify the leaders of the major ninja villages to meet at the Allied Forces Headquarters. There are important matters regarding the Masked Man and other things to discuss."

"This time, we will solve the problem of constant wars for a thousand years."

"Yes, Lord Hokage!" Yamanaka Inoichi said with excitement.

Cutting off the communication, Kageyama Kogetsu looked at Kushina, Sasuke, and Naruto.

"Will you three leave with me or continue to stay here?"

Naruto answered first, "I want to stay here. It might be hard to find opportunities to exercise in the future."

"It's rare to come out. I haven't had enough fun yet," Kushina laughed.

"I'll stay too."

"Naruto, from now on, let's compete to see who defeats more White Zetsu, how about it?" Sasuke said with a relaxed smile.

"Okay, I won't lose to you!" Naruto was full of fighting spirit.

"In that case, I'll go first."

A square space gate opened. Kageyama Kogetsu took a step and arrived at the Allied Forces Headquarters in an instant.

"Inoichi, tell the logistics unit to send people to purchase enough supplies. After the war, everyone will have a meal together to deepen the camaraderie."

"The cost will be counted as military expenditure, borne by all ninja villages... forget it, borne by the five great ninja villages."

"Yes, Lord Hokage."

About half an hour later, the enemy forces on all battlefields were wiped out. After cleaning up the battlefield, the various units began to converge towards the Allied Forces Headquarters...

The leaders of the major ninja villages returned to the Allied Forces Headquarters in advance. After eating and resting for a while, they arrived at the conference room of the Allied Forces Headquarters one after another.

In the middle of the conference room was a red-black solid wood long table. Kageyama Kogetsu sat at the head without hesitation.

On his left and right were Ōnoki and the Fourth Raikage A, followed by Terumī Mei, Gaara, Orochimaru, and others.

Around the long table were several sets of tables and chairs, where ninja recording the meeting content sat.

Although these people had no right to speak, they were also pillars of the major ninja villages, or even people of high status.

They were Nara Shikaku, Mabui, Temari, Kurotsuchi, Chōjūrō, Kabuto Yakushi, and others.

"Everyone is here. Let's start the meeting."

Everyone looked at the man at the head of the table, wearing a Hokage hat and robe, with a red line between his eyebrows.

People had different mindsets, but most were apprehensive.

As time passed, the performance of Kageyama Kogetsu and the Konoha experts on the battlefield had fallen into the eyes of the high-ranking officials of each village...

Konoha's top-tier combat power was leagues ahead, so the high-ranking officials of the major ninja villages were very wary, even fearful.

But fearful as they were, they didn't dare not to come, afraid of becoming the chicken killed to warn the monkeys.

"There are only two topics for this meeting. The first is the Masked Man."

"Actually, as early as two years ago, through Kakashi's Mangekyō Sharingan, I had guesses about the identity of the Masked Man, but I couldn't be completely sure..."

"Now I am completely sure. He is Obito Uchiha, who supposedly died in the Battle of Kannabi Bridge during the Third Great Ninja War!"

The next moment, Obito Uchiha, immersed in genjutsu and unable to extricate himself, appeared beside Kageyama Kogetsu.

Obito Uchiha's eyes had been created by Kageyama Kogetsu using Yin-Yang Release, similar to the eyes Naruto created for Kakashi.

Of course, Kageyama Kogetsu wasn't being kind; he just felt that judging a blind man wasn't very interesting.

But to gain eyes, one must lose something.

Therefore, Kageyama Kogetsu cut off Obito Uchiha's right arm and dislocated his left arm, leaving it hanging limply by his left side.

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this, carefully examining Obito Uchiha's face...

A moment later, Orochimaru smiled. "Lord Tsuchikage, Iwagakure played a big part in Obito Uchiha becoming like this."

Ōnoki's expression remained unchanged. "Iwagakure didn't start the Third Great Ninja War. If Sunagakure hadn't caused trouble, how would such a thing have happened?"

Gaara's expression changed. He wanted to refute but didn't know where to start. He couldn't blame Konoha, could he?

Obito Uchiha came from Konoha. In principle, Konoha should bear some responsibility, but now the principle was in Konoha's hands.

Fortunately, Gaara had some quick wit and found a scapegoat in time.

"This is the fault of the Sunagakure rogue ninja, Sasori of the Red Sand. If he hadn't assassinated the Third Kazekage, the Third Great Ninja War wouldn't have broken out."

"At least not in the short term. If it broke out later, the outcome might have been different."

Sasori of the Red Sand was already dead. If they wanted to assign blame, they could go find a dead man. He had no objection to fishing Sasori's soul from the Pure Land for questioning.

Although he felt a bit sorry for Grandma Chiyo, Sunagakure couldn't bear such a big blame. There was no other way...
