In the camp of Konoha in the Land of Rain.
Tsunade and her group finally reunited with Sakumo after a long journey.
The sky began to clear up, though the sun wasn't shining brightly.
Puddles of water were everywhere on the ground.
Sakumo had arranged the camp well. As soon as the large troop arrived, they could move in without having to set up tents themselves.
Suddenly, the whole camp became lively.
The leaders of each family tried their best to restrain their clan members from getting into conflicts with others.
Because Kawaki had mentioned this matter openly and secretly quite a lot in the past few days.
Everyone was really terrified of this killing god when it came to confrontation.
The largest earthen house in the center of the camp was the Meeting Hall specially built by Sakumo.
As more people were going to attend the meeting, the house naturally had to be a bit larger.
Tsunade didn't hold a meeting as soon as she arrived. Everyone needed to rest and recuperate first.
Moreover, no exact intelligence had come yet. Konoha had already taken the initiative, so they were still relatively at ease for the time being.
Several friends came to Sakumo's tent. It was relatively quiet here.
Most people didn't have much of a relationship with him, let alone come to visit him.
"Big bro, the conditions here are not that great."
Kawaki sat down carelessly first. Sakumo had already asked someone to prepare some food.
This sentence made Sakumo twitch at the corner of his eye. This was the front line. Did you think it was a town or home?
"You should be content just having something to eat."
Tsunade lightly punched him and sat down beside him.
Kawaki is the type who can't live a day without causing trouble.
"Everyone, sit down. Don't be polite."
Kawaki greeted everyone to sit down. Big bro's place is his turf.
"Big Bro Sakumo."
Dai still pretended to be polite and greeted him. Then he sat down and picked up a pork knuckle.
It was understandable that Taijutsu ninjas could eat more.
"Finally, you're okay. Don't lie down again."
Sakumo was happier to see Dai than to see his own younger brother. He was all smiles.
He was more suitable to deal with simple people.
After everyone sat down, the topic naturally turned to the war.
"Iwagakure should be taking action."
"We're just waiting for the exact news."
Sakumo had asked Hayato to keep an eye on the movement in the direction of Iwagakure.
It should be about time for the news to come.
"I heard that Sunagakure has been staying at the border of the Land of Wind and didn't dare to come?"
Kawaki smiled. Sunagakure was quite self - aware.
"Yeah, they were probably scared by the beating."
"Now they have no choice but to come. Their Daimyō didn't support them for nothing."
Sakumo also smiled. The direct death of a village's Kage was a blow that any village would find hard to bear.
"We still need to be careful about Shukaku."
Tsunade had fought against Shukaku, and there were only a few people around who could deal with him.
"Leave it to me."
Dai had fought against the Jinchūriki of the Five - Tailed Beast and was full of confidence at the moment.
"Bunpuku is a perfect Jinchūriki, and his strength is even greater than that of the Five - Tailed Beast."
Kawaki quietly revealed the truth and glanced at Dai. His current strength was still a bit insufficient to deal with Shukaku.
"Uh, then I'll team up with Big Bro Sakumo."
Although Dai was simple - minded, he wasn't a fool. When given a choice, if he couldn't win, he would call for help.
Makes sense!
"Is youth losing its edge?"
Sakumo made a joke. He was also eager to fight the Tailed Beast.
"Hey, don't we need bros on the journey of youth?"
Dai swallowed the pork knuckle and gave a simple and honest smile, showing his bright white teeth.
"Haha, Dai, you're turning into a rascal."
Shinryu Yūhi finally spoke up. He didn't plan to take part in the high - level fight against the Tailed Beast at all.
There were Genjutsu[b]Genjutsu[/b] that could be used against the Tailed Beast. But he wasn't up to that level.
He had only heard that Madara Uchiha could control the Nine - Tailed Fox with just one look. That guy was a master in the field of Genjutsu.
It's a pity that without those eyes, he has no hope in this life.
"This is called going with the flow."
After Dai said that, everyone burst into laughter.
"Then let us handle Iwagakure."
Kawaki casually took on the Iwagakure Ninjas. ōnoki was just a defeated foe under his hand.
"I guess ōnoki won't bring out the Jinchūriki of the Five - Tailed Beast."
Tsunade guessed ōnoki's plan. A Jinchūriki who might go berserk at any time was obviously unfit to appear on the battlefield.
"Son Gokū, the Four - Tailed Beast, has higher combat power than the Five - Tailed Beast."
Kawaki naturally knew how powerful Rōshi was, but he didn't think Tsunade at this time couldn't handle him.
If it were the Tsunade from the original plot, she probably wouldn't match up to Rōshi at this stage.
"I'll take it seriously."
"Chōmei always says everyone is stronger than him."
"I really..."
Tsunade heard Chōmei chattering away again. This guy really had a good temper, but he was just too weak.
"Haha, why don't you teach him a few moves."
Sakumo was even amused. Tsunade had complained about the Seven - Tailed Beast's talkative nature countless times.
When really annoyed, Tsunade would rush into the seals to beat him up.
At most, she could get half a day of peace.
"I didn't think that much at that time."
Kawaki scratched his head awkwardly. However, those wings were really cool.
"It should have been sealed into your body."
Tsunade gave him a disdainful look. This guy must have had that idea from the start.
After some wild daydreaming, Tsunade blushed. She wrote down this baseless grudge against Kawaki.
"If you don't eat quickly, Dai will finish it all."
Sakumo watched Dai gobbling down the food and quickly called everyone to eat.
What can you say about a simple - minded guy just focusing on his meal?
"Dai, slow down and leave some meat."
Kawaki glanced at the table. Sure enough, this guy only knew how to eat meat.
"I'm just recovering from a serious injury. Please forgive me."
Dai showed no sign of embarrassment. His honest smile was the best cover.
"I'm convinced. I'll go get some more meat."
Sakumo got up and went out. Well, he could only spoil his good buddy.
When Sakumo came back with the meat, everyone had a good meal.
They chatted about some family matters, and the atmosphere became much warmer.
Kawaki also took the opportunity to mention arranging a Childhood Betrothal between Shinryu Yūhi and Kakashi.
Shinryu Yūhi didn't refuse, but he was also a doting husband. He said he would go back and ask his wife's opinion.
Sakumo immediately realized what he couldn't compare to Kawaki.
Damn! Kakashi can't even walk, but his uncle has already fixed him up with a wife.
Judging by the appearance of Kurenai's mother, Kurenai must be a great beauty too.
How could Kakashi not like her?
Everyone also laughed and egged them on. The childhood betrothal was just one final step away.
Kawaki was worried that the relationship between childhood sweethearts might not be able to withstand the allure of a first encounter. If Asuma, that bearded man, really made Kurenai fall head over heels, how heart - broken Kakashi would be.
This was like adding an additional layer of insurance.
"Does my boy stand a chance?"
Dai knew how difficult it was for him to find a wife. At this moment, he could only feel envious.
Kawaki thought about Gai, the Blue Beast of Konoha. He was the man who almost ended the story with one powerful kick.
When he was a child, he was just a little sprout. Throughout the whole story of the Hokage, he had the strongest sense of a CP with Kakashi, but just no luck with women.
"Hey, don't fret. I'll give him some pointers."
Kawaki seemed to have made up his mind. With Gai's image and personality, it was really not easy for him to find a wife.
This was a long - term and challenging task.
"Thank you, Kawaki - kun."
Dai was on the verge of tears. This was an incredible benefactor.
Tsunade gave Kawaki a meaningful look, as if he had some tricks up his sleeve.
She somehow found herself being involved in this matter.
