Otherwise, there would be no need to discuss it at the high-level meeting, the team to kill Sosuke would have set out long ago.

"However, Konoha is currently in a critical period. The timing and specific methods of punishment need to be carefully considered." Sarutobi Hiruzen changed his tone and became less sharp.

He actually didn't want to start a war. If Sosuke was willing to pay with his life, Sarutobi Hiruzen could pretend that nothing had happened.

It’s not that the Rain Country under Sosuke’s leadership has the power to threaten Konoha.

Konoha did not suffer much damage in this war. It would not be difficult for Konoha to destroy a small country, even the strongest one.

The other four major ninja villages that Sarutobi Hiruzen was really worried about.

In name they were allied.

But this so-called alliance is just a piece of waste paper in the face of interests. If everything goes well, it will be fine. But if Konoha reveals a flaw when attacking the Rain Country, the alliance relationship may not be maintained.

"Why don't we try to resolve the problem through negotiation first?" Mizuto Menyan suggested.

He understood Sarutobi Hiruzen's idea, which was to survive and develop, and to make the movements as small as possible.

It’s best not to make any big moves before Mu Yue becomes the true second Ninja God.

"First we strongly condemn and express our attitude, and then we state our demands."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought about it, nodded and said, "If we can solve the problem through negotiation, that would be the best."

Negotiation means that you don't need to take action and won't reveal any flaws.

"Mu Yue, what do you think?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked, trying to give Mu Yue a greater sense of participation.

He was very satisfied with Mu Yue's performance at her first meeting. If you don't understand, then watch more, learn more, and talk less.

"The negotiations went well." Mu Yue replied.

He felt that the position of the Hokage's assistant was worthy of him as he had considerable power and could watch others discuss how to deal with him and his forces.

After Utane Koharu nodded, it meant that the top leaders had reached a consensus and Konoha would start negotiations with the Ninja Clan.

Their request was very simple, that is, Sosuke must die.

After the meeting, Mu Yue returned to her home in the main city.

As soon as he opened the door, there was a commotion at the Namikaze Minato's house next door, and figures walked out one after another quickly.

"Teacher Mu Yue, are you finished with the meeting?" Obito rushed into the room with Mu Yue and greeted her.

"It's finally over. Shizune, please bring in the food." Tsunade walked into the house without any hesitation and sat on the sofa.

Originally, she wanted to go straight into Mu Yue's house after buying vegetables, but was persuaded by Minato Namikaze, who said that it was not appropriate to break into a private residence.

This led to a group of people gathering at Minato Namikaze's house.

"Mu Yue is awesome, a 22-year-old assistant to the Hokage. We have to have a few drinks tonight." Jiraiya walked into the house with a smile.

Looking at the disciples and friends at the door, Mu Yue smiled and welcomed everyone into the house.

However, what surprised Mu Yue was that Orochimaru also came, and all the three ninjas were present.

"Mu Yue-kun, excuse me for disturbing you," Orochimaru said calmly after entering the room.

He originally came here to test whether Mu Yue, who inherited the Root, had discovered his secret cooperation with Shimura Danzo. Seeing that there were so many people around, he wanted to leave, but was stopped by Jiraiya.

"Mu Yue, how about we go to the restaurant to eat today?" Namikaze Minato said after glancing around the room.

There are five of Mu Yue's disciples here alone, plus the others, that makes eleven, plus Mu Yue himself, that makes a total of twelve.

"There's no need. We've already bought the food. Why go to a restaurant?" Mu Yue shook her head and smiled.

Cooking for twelve people, especially for ninjas with large appetites, would be too much for an ordinary person to handle while ensuring the quality, but he is not an ordinary person.

After saying that, Mu Yue went straight into the kitchen, and Namikaze Minato went in with her.

Tsunade felt a little strange when she saw this scene, "What is Minato doing in there? Why does he look so skilled?"

"Because we are neighbors, we often eat and cook together." Kushina, who was sitting next to Tsunade, said as a matter of course.

She didn't know what happened after he started training to control the Nine-Tailed Fox, but they often ate together before that.

"What kind of neighbors would eat together? You guys are relatives, right?" Tsunade complained.

"Hehe, maybe, Mu Yue and Minato are really relatives." Kushina said indifferently.

When they first met, Kushina was curious about whether Mu Yue was the long-lost brother of Minato Namikaze, but later she stopped caring.

Even relatives may not have such a good relationship with them, so why bother about these things?

"The war is over again. Orochimaru, do you still hold on to your idea?" Jiraiya asked casually.

At the end of the Second Ninja World War, Orochimaru once said something that impressed Jiraiya.

Orochimaru said that he wanted to learn all ninjutsu, overcome human short lifespan, and understand all the truths in the world.

"Of course, this is my only dream." Orochimaru replied calmly.

His experiences made him realize the fragility of human life, and Orochimaru hated such fragile life.

"What about you? Are you still planning to find something to do?"

"What do you mean by looking for trouble? This is a major event that concerns the future of the ninja world!" Jiraiya retorted seriously.

According to the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage, his disciples will bring great changes to the ninja world, and he is the one who guides the change and has important responsibilities.

Although Jiraiya guessed that Nagato might be the child of prophecy, he was not 100% sure.

Since he was free anyway and he also liked traveling around the ninja world, he continued traveling at the same pace as before.

"Hehe." Orochimaru sneered sarcastically. He did not believe in the so-called prophecy.

If the prophecy is bound to come true, then doesn't it mean that everything in this world is predetermined, and no matter how hard you try, it's meaningless? Then why does Jiraiya have to take action?

If the prophecy is uncertain and can be changed, Orochimaru feels more like the Great Toad Sage is making plans to make the future go towards the result it wants.

No matter which possibility it was, Orochimaru felt that Jiraiya was stupid for wasting a lot of time on a prophecy.

"I don't want to argue with a boring person like you. Tsunade, what are you going to do next?" Jiraiya looked at Tsunade and asked.

“Traveling around the world to various casinos to win money?”

"Let's talk about it later. I want to stay in Konoha for another four years." Tsunade shook her head and replied.

She had indeed wanted to visit casinos around the world before. No, actually she wanted to do that now too. But before she went, she had to pay off her debts first, otherwise it would be a big loss.

"you……"

"What's it to you!" Jiraiya was about to complain when Tsunade interrupted the spell.

Looking at Tsunade's fierce eyes, Jiraiya shut his mouth tactfully. Others might be pretending, but Tsunade was really fighting, and she didn't hold back on the intensity of her blows.

"Still as stupid as before." Seeing this, Orochimaru couldn't help but recall the time when they practiced together when they were young, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

"Why don't we ask Teacher Mu Yue if we can go to the second floor? We feel like we might disturb Lady Tsunade and the others if we stay here," Nohara Lin suggested.

Kakashi and the others nodded.

Tsunade and Jiraiya were fine, but Orochimaru's aura was so strong that they couldn't let go.

After getting Mu Yue's approval, Nohara Lin and the others went to the second floor.

"So the cold-faced uncle is like this in private as well. I thought he was only serious on the battlefield." Obito scratched his head and said.

With the examples of Jiraiya and Tsunade, Obito thought that Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas, was also a hypocrite, but he didn't expect that he was a real prude and his personality was exactly the same as in the legend.

"You already know he's a rather serious person, yet you still give him a nickname." Kakashi said speechlessly.

"You really should change this habit of yours. Otherwise, if you run for Hokage in the future, I will definitely vote against you. Otherwise, I dare not imagine what Konoha will become in the future."

Kakashi imagined Obito sitting in the Hokage's office, and it would be hard for him to remain calm if he suddenly asked to call the white-haired assistant over.

"Why should I do what you say? I don't need your vote!" Obito stood firm.

Kakashi dares to give him orders before he becomes Hokage. What will happen if he becomes Hokage? He will definitely win the position of Fifth Hokage from Kakashi.

"The two of them still have such a good relationship." Jingyin said with some envy.

She had studied with Mu Yue for a period of time and was familiar with Kakashi and the others.

Shizune was quite envious of this kind of relationship. She usually had no friends to play with. Only when Nohara Rin came to Tsunade to learn, she had a playmate of the same age.

"Yeah, it's so good that it's a bit enviable." Nohara Lin covered her mouth and chuckled.

"No way!" ×2

Obito and Kakashi denied it in unison.

"Don't imitate me!" ×2

"Hmph!"×2

This tacit triple denial added a cheerful atmosphere to the air.

"It's as accurate as if the movements were copied with the Sharingan." said Sharingan expert Shisui.

"As expected of a close friend!" Might Guy, who became inexplicably enthusiastic, gave Kakashi a thumbs up.

"Why would you use the Sharingan for something like this?"

“This is not something to be praised at all.”

After a while of laughter and chatter, the aroma coming from the first floor became stronger and stronger, and the atmosphere on the second floor also changed.

"I'm really looking forward to this super feast!" Obito licked his dry lips, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.

During the two months when Mu Yue followed him to fight, Mu Yue would occasionally cook for him.

But the conditions on the battlefield cannot compare with those in Konoha, so he is very much looking forward to the upcoming feast.

The disciples all nodded, and Might Guy even made a bold statement, "We must not let down Teacher Qingchun and Mu Yue's feast!"

"This fragrance is squirrel fish!"

“I feel the scent of sweet and sour pork.”

The more Obito smelled, the more excited he became. Based on these smells, he could already confirm which dishes there were.

"Come down to eat."

Obito suppressed the urge to use Kamui to pass through the floor and reach the downstairs, and rushed downstairs at high speed.

The other disciples also restrained their strength. With their current strength, if they didn't restrain themselves, they would have to tear down Mu Yue's house in a hurry.

"Wood Release: Furniture Technique!"

Since the original table was not big enough, Mu Yue simply used Wood Release Chakra to rebuild a set of tables and chairs.

"What a convenient bloodline limit." Obito exclaimed.

No wonder Uchiha Madara couldn't defeat Senju Hashirama at the beginning. This Wood Release is indeed powerful. Not only can it create a giant, but it also has huge advantages in life.

Then everyone started to move, some serving dishes and some taking bowls to get rice.

"Don't be polite, let's eat quickly." Mu Yue took the lead and picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork and said with a smile.

Needless to say, Minato Namikaze took full advantage of his strong reaction and quickly picked up two pieces of braised pork and put them into the bowl.

Tsunade and other people who have eaten Mu Yue's cuisine all went all out and did it vigorously.

"What are they doing? So exaggerated, is it necessary?" Orochimaru looked at the afterimages of pairs of chopsticks on the table, feeling surprised.

This dish does smell good and looks delicious, but after all, it is just some food, not some magical secret medicine.

Orochimaru calmly picked up the squirrel fish closest to him with a pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish and put it in his mouth, and his expression changed instantly.

The moment the fish entered his mouth, a sweet and sour taste burst out in Orochimaru's mouth, followed by the crispy outside and tender inside of the fish. When he chewed the fish, the sweet and sour taste that permeated the fish gave Orochimaru another experience.

The fish had an excellent taste, with just the right amount of sweetness and sourness. Just a small piece of fish gave Orochimaru an experience he had never had before.

In a trance, Orochimaru seemed to have turned into a fish swimming freely in a river, his whole body wrapped in coolness, swimming happily all day long.

After coming to his senses, Orochimaru looked at Mu Yue with incredible eyes.

As a master of illusion, he certainly knew that he was not under an illusion just now, but what about that real feeling of pleasure?

"Muyue-kun, no wonder your cooking is so popular." Orochimaru exclaimed.

If cooking also has a realm, then Mu Yue must be the god of cooking, the Senju Hashirama of the culinary world, with a huge gap between him and other chefs.

He never thought a dish could give him such an experience.

"If it tastes good, eat more." Mu Yue reminded with a smile.
