Chapter 131 - 131 (1/2)
The three's early departure from the meeting room made the atmosphere awkward to the exteme. When the 3rd announced the end of the meeting, everyone looked at Danzo's trio strangely.
Danzo and the others did not understand the 3rd's behavior. Kushina was a perfect Jinchuriki, there should be no fear that she would lose control if provoked.
At least, that's what they thought. Whenever the rest left, they started arguing with the 3rd.
”Hiruzen, what do you mean by this? Even if you don't support us, we'll still get Kushina under our own surveillance.” Koharu complained to the 3rd.
The 3rd was about to explain his stance, when Homura spoke: ”Leaving the Kyubi's Jinchuriki free was a huge mistake from the beginning. If this doesn't change, it will eventually backfire at the village.
The 3rd sighed. He never knew when his 3 friends became like this; selfish, greedy, and seeking nothing but control over power.
”Koharu, Homura, do even know what being a Perfect Kyubi Jinchurki mean? Hashirama san is no longer here. If she wants to destroy the village, it would be done in the blink of an eye!”
His words surprised the two of them. They knew that the Kyubi was very powerful, but they didn't expect it to be so powerful.
”Sarutobi, you're being over dramatic. Even if we manage to provoke her into losing control, how many Ninjas would we need to beat the Kyubi?” Danzo, who had been silent for so long, finally spoke.
The 3rd smiled and give the three a scroll, when they read it, their faces turned pale, especially Koharu, she was shivering uncontrollably.
The scroll mentioned that when in perfect Jinchuriki state, Kushina took down the both the Hachibi and the Nibi, in just two minutes.
When the three were young, they've been through many wars. Of course, they saw both those Biju. The Hachibi especially was horrible. Knowing she beat it in just two minutes made the Kyubi seem like an invincible entity to them.
Koharu was in ruin. What kind of being did she just provoke? If Kushina wanted, she'd be dead, with actually no one being able to speak for her after death.
”Now you understand! Even if it was just the Kyubi, we wouldn't be able to take it down with the power of the whole village, let alone that now with Kushina being a perfect Jinchurki, its power should actually be enhanced and more terrifying.”
”Danzo, what else do you have?” asked the 3rd.
”Hiruzen, I know that the Kyubi is powerful, but there also ways to suppress its power. There's Wood Release and the Mangekyo… ”
The 3rd interrupted Danzo asking with a serious face: ”Are you thinking about the 1st Hokage?”
”Yes! Anything for Konoha's sake! You think that the Kyubi is so strong, so if you don't restrain it, it will always remain a threat. The Uchiha are unreliable, and the Senju clan has no more users of Wood Release. Our only way to control it is through the 1st Hokage sama. If we can bring him ba..”
”ENOUGH! NEVER MENTION THIS AGAIN!” The 3rd was furious by Danzo's suggestion, and a startling momentum erupted from his body.
Danzo, confronted by such powerful momentum from a much more powerful man, was shaking all over. The 3rd Hokage couldn't bear watching his friends have such wicked ideas. He then sighed, and controlled himself, as Danzo took the opportunity to bow his head and leave quickly.
The 3rd looked as if he had years added to his age within that simple meeting. He just sat back on his chair and started smoking his pipe.
Back to Ryo, Minato and Kushina, the trio went directly to the Barbecue Restaurant after they left the conference room.
As the other two made the order, Ryo went out quickly, and brought back a purple haired little girl, Yugao.
Ryo saw Minato's shocked looked, and he automatically ignored it and looked away.
As for little Yugao, her attention was all over the Barbecue, not even noticing the presence of Minato.
