Hokage Master-Chapter 520: The Council of Five is Over
The atmosphere in the hall changed, but no one dared to speak first. Even after the Hokage's departure, the sinister, oppressive feeling still lingered in the audience. They felt as if he was watching from the shadows, ready to attack at any moment! This paranoid feeling was annoying, but there was nothing anyone could do about it... He'd hurt them too badly today, and it looked like they'd be walking around looking around for the rest of their lives.
But, even so...
None of the Kage dared to leave, because even if Naruto left them, they instinctively felt that they didn't have the right to do so, so they couldn't relax. Shizune was still present. Although she didn't evoke the same emotions as Him, they still didn't dare to be rude to her since she was his subordinate.
Judging from Naruto's last words, the Kage understood that this girl was important to him, and it was with her that they would have to do business in the future. I couldn't help but have a strange feeling... How lucky this woman was to be such an important figure to this frightening man...
It really wasn't that simple... And unlike them, she didn't seem to be afraid of him?
He left them with her...
Surprisingly, such a disrespectful and arrogant attitude from the Hokage did not seem to be something surprising to them anymore. In truth, they were even more happy to talk to Shizune than to him. But obviously, you'll have to choose your words.
- so... The kunoichi suddenly let out a playful laugh, and ignoring everyone present, she crept up to Misuno's poisoned body, injected her with an antidote, and then addressed the three Kage:
"Take care of her. Her master only allowed her to live for the sake of delivering a "message" to the future Mizukage.
After saying that, without waiting for any response, Shizune stepped over Choujiro's corpse under the surprised gazes of everyone present and took his place.
Even if Naruto was gone, she didn't dare take his place. But, to take the place of another Kage?
Outrageous!
But no one dared to say it out loud...
After such a strange "performance", Shizune smiled sweetly and then said playfully:
— Now, we'll talk about 'business'...

And as soon as she said that, everyone present felt a headache again...
As they had expected, it wasn't over yet... They weren't allowed to leave so easily...
"Hah... I want to go home..."
"Why did I even get involved in all this?"
It was even worse for the bodyguards... the lingering fear of Naruto was still there.
Gaara was grim, as was the Raikage. Naruto's attitude showed that he wasn't going to hang out with them anymore. Past friendships no longer mattered.
Gaara didn't even know how to communicate with Temari anymore...
Kurotsuchi was worried... Her condition was due to just one "small thing" — Naruto's "promise"...
"My God... So what do I do now..."
You just had to imagine what it was like for her...
Surely he wouldn't warn her, and he'd show up unexpectedly! All this time, Kurotsuchi would have to wait and be afraid...
No matter how you look at it, it was even worse for her than the others!
It was up to her to decide how to properly "receive" him if he suddenly arrived in her village. Obviously, if you keep shaking and being afraid of him, things can get out of hand and who knows how he'll take advantage of it.
Kurotsuchi couldn't act like a helpless girl. Not only her position, but also her character did not allow her to do this. After all, there were more important things than your own life and pride. Today, in front of everyone, facing the altered Naruto for the first time — she naturally couldn't do anything.
Kurotsuchi felt strange about this, but she knew that after today, the situation in the world would change dramatically, and his visit could significantly affect the future of her village.
That was why, even if it was scary, Kurotsuchi wanted to find the right way to "interact" with him and maybe even benefit from it. Even if you have to risk it... After all, even if she couldn't stand up to him in battle, there were other options.
Who knows what his true motive is, to announce his "visit"... He didn't just do it, did he? Kurotsuchi didn't believe that such a dangerous person would throw words to the wind without thinking about it.
The best opportunity was always accompanied by danger, and Kurotsuchi saw that the changed Naruto was significantly different from the previous person who constantly refused to "negotiate"with her. She tried many times, but it was all in vain. This one, judging by Shizune, clearly did not treat everyone "fairly" and openly favored the "special ones". So if you show yourself properly, who knows what it can lead to...
Kurotsuchi understood the main thing — whether it was Naruto or not, but with his power, no one would be able to find out the truth. Even if someone took over his body, what difference does it make? Who even has the skills to deal with this? It's obvious enough...
She had to adjust to the situation and adapt, there was no question of any resistance or hatred. She wasn't that naive.
Even though Kurotsuchi was afraid, she knew that even in this situation, this chance couldn't be missed. Naruto was very strong, and if she could somehow connect with him before most of the others present, it would be a huge advantage for her and the village!
No one knew what was going on in the mind of this "modest" girl. In truth, even she didn't quite understand, feeling a strange excitement and a surge of determination...
Shizune then started talking about internal affairs, completely ignoring the gloomy atmosphere, and paying close attention to those present, changing the details of the contract and making new deals. She had a lot on her shoulders...
But, all of this had almost nothing to do with Naruto. Meanwhile, he was relaxing in his office...
