Free Shinobi in Naruto(With Divine Purple Card)

Ch126- Raid



Kai interjected smoothly, "Now, onto the matter at hand."

With that, the room was plunged into a discussion about the pressing issues affecting the Shinobi world. The threat of Akatsuki, the challenge of keeping villages secure, and the ever-elusive Zetsu were central themes.

"We are here today because of a significant threat," Kai began, the authority in his voice palpable. The weight of his words rested heavily on the other Kages, reminding them of their collective responsibilities. "The Akatsuki have embarked on a quest to capture all the Tailed Beasts, with the intent of recreating the Ten Tails and implementing the Eye of the Moon Plan."

Tsunade nodded in agreement, her eyes serious. "Their ambitions are not idle threats. They've already taken the Six Tails' Host, and they tried for Gaara just days ago."

Gaara's expression remained composed, but his voice held a hint of strain. "Yes, if it weren't for Kai's intervention, the outcome would have been different."

Kai leaned back in his chair, maintaining an unspoken yet palpable presence, and let the Kages discuss among themselves. While he possessed the strength to single-handedly shape the outcome of the conversation, he respected the authority of each leader, allowing them to decide the fate of their villages. If an agreement wasn't reached, he had already decided internally to prioritize the protection of the villages and people he held dear.

"We've seen the results of their attempts," Oonoki, the Tsuchikage, began, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. "They're relentless. We must form a unified front."

A shifted uncomfortably in his seat, the earlier encounter with Kai still fresh in his mind. "It's evident that we can't face them separately. Our shinobi, no matter how strong, fall short in the face of their combined force."

"Agreed," Mei added, brushing a stray hair from her face. "My concern is how we combine our resources without exposing any village. They're tactically smart. One wrong move from us could spell disaster."

Gaara's gaze was intense, his words measured. "We need to be proactive. We wait, and we risk more captures. I nearly became one of their victims. We need to strike, and strike hard."

Tsunade shot a quick glance at Kai. "And we have an advantage," she nodded towards him subtly, indicating his unparalleled abilities.

Kai nodded, acknowledging Tsunade's subtle indication of his role in the upcoming confrontation. "If it comes to it, I'll be on the front lines," he stated matter-of-factly.

Gaara's eyes held a gleam of respect and gratitude. "Your intervention a few days ago changed the course of the battle for me. I'd be grateful to fight alongside you again."

Tsunade chimed in, her tone firm, "However, we can't rely solely on Kai's strength. We must strategize, plan, and bring all our combined strengths to bear."

Oonoki nodded in agreement, his old eyes narrowed thoughtfully. "Indeed, we're all in this together. The Akatsuki have made that clear."

Kai settled back, his gaze settling on each of the Kages present. "From this point forward," he began, his voice firm yet not overbearing, "I declare the Five Villages united in alliance. Betrayal of this pact will carry heavy consequences."

His gaze swept the table. "If a village wishes to withdraw, they may do so after offering appropriate compensation to the others. However, it's not a course I'd advise."

There was a weighty pause as the leaders absorbed Kai's declaration. Tsunade broke the silence. "Kai's right. This alliance isn't a matter of choice—it's a necessity for our mutual survival."

Oonoki, with a nod, added, "The world has changed. Traditional rivalries and conflicts no longer serve us. We face a common enemy, one that threatens all of our villages."

Gaara's eyes met Kai's, gratitude evident. "I owe my life to you, Kai. Sunagakure stands with this alliance, as do I."

Kai merely acknowledged the statement with a nod, ever the man of few words.

Mei leaned forward, her cerulean eyes thoughtful. "While the alliance is a bold step, we must also discuss the specifics. Defense, communication, resource sharing, and intelligence gathering need to be organized."

Kakashi, having been silent so far, chose this moment to speak up. "With Zetsu's ability to be everywhere, we need an intelligence network that's both secure and efficient. Konoha has been working on such a system. I propose we extend and adapt it for our united front."

A hummed in agreement. "In a world where secrecy and surprise can be our greatest assets, such a system is invaluable."

Kurotsuchi, with a tilt of her head, inquired, "But how do we ensure that Zetsu, or any other spy for that matter, doesn't infiltrate this system?"

Kakashi replied, "Every system has vulnerabilities. The trick is to make it as hard as possible to exploit and monitor it constantly for irregularities."

Tsunade added, "It's a work in progress, but with the expertise from all our villages combined, I believe we can create a system that's as secure as it can be."

Gaara, always the strategist, interjected, "While a secure communication system is vital, we also need to discuss a coordinated defense and offense plan against Akatsuki. Their ability to strike any village at any time means we need to be vigilant and prepared."

Mei agreed, her voice soft but determined. "It's not just about defending our own territories anymore. If one village is attacked, we all need to be ready to support."

Kai, having observed the conversation, then spoke, capturing everyone's attention instantly. "I'll be elsewhere, but remember this alliance isn't just about defense. It's about showing the world that the Five Great Villages stand united, stronger than ever. Discuss your strategies. I trust you to make decisions that benefit all."

With that, Kai's presence faded, leaving the leaders of the Shinobi world to map out their future.

Appearing suddenly within the cool confines of a dimly lit cave, Kai's sharp gaze immediately took in the large statue that stood at its center. The statue bore the figure of a multi-faced creature, surrounded by menacing chains. Atop it stood several individuals, dressed in dark, cloak-like garments with red clouds patterned upon them. Each wore a unique hat, yet their faces were obscured, their intentions unknown.

Near the statue lay a woman, her skin pale, with tael hair flowing around her. Her eyes were closed, her breathing shallow, portraying a sense of fragility and vulnerability.

The stillness of the cave was abruptly shattered when a powerful burst of energy sealed off the entrance. From the dust and smoke emerged a woman, her petite frame contrasting with her blazing red hair. She scanned the cave, her eyes coming to rest on Kai. With a mixture of reverence and surprise, she sank to her knees, her voice quivering slightly. "Master."
