Remember that this story contains spoilers and/or may not make sense unless you have watched Naruto and/or Naruto Shippuden.

For those who did not see that show, sorry... 80% will not make sense.

Btw the statements made in this chapter are mostly from the show or drawn from historical evidence. I am not attacking anyone's beliefs.

I couldn't find a way to really shorten the scenes without a bunch of extra brainpower so I lazily included all. Still used a lot of brainpower...

Kage Summit, Land of Iron: Several months after Konan's death...

Mifune looked around the conference room, eyeing the five figures in front of him. He couldn't help but secretly be impressed. After all, it wasn't every day one was able to see such a sight. It had been many years since a conclave of this scale had happened. These days, it was unheard of for the Kage of all five of the great shinobi nations to meet at the same time, yet here they were.

The Land of Lightning's, Ay, the Fourth Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village...

The Land of Earth's, Onoki, the Third Tsuchikage of the Hidden Stone Village...

The Land of Water's, Mei, the Fifth Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village...

The Land of Wind's, Gaara, the Fifth Kazekage of the Hidden Sand Village...

And the Land of Fire's, Danzo, the Sixth Hokage candidate of the Hidden Leaf Village...

As a neutral party and the general of the samurai nation of the Land of Iron, Mifune had been asked to act as the mediator to the council. Even so, he did not like the heaviness in the air.

Ever since the Akatsuki had been capturing the hidden village's Jinchuriki, the balance of power between all the shinobi nations had been far from stable. The Hidden Stone had lost its two Jinchuriki, the Four-Tails, and the Five-Tails. The Hidden Mist had lost its remaining Jinchuriki, the Six-Tails. Supposedly the Three-Tails had disappeared and resurfaced in the Land of Fire, only for the Akatsuki to capture it. The Hidden Sand's own Kazekage had been captured and had the One-Tails extracted, causing his temporary death. The only reason the young man was alive now was because one of the village elders exchanged her own life force to reanimate him. Even one of the smaller villages, the Hidden Waterfall, had lost its Seven-Tails Jinchuriki. The Hidden Cloud suffered most recently with its loss of the Two-Tails and the Eight-Tails, the latter being the Raikage's younger brother. Only the Hidden Leaf had been able to retain its control over the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. This was only thanks to its former leader, Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage's foresight.

Alone out of all the Kage, Tsunade had listened to the warning of the deceased member of the legendary Sannin, Jiraya the Toad Sage. True, as a member of the Sannin herself, it was only natural, but because of that, she had not only kept her Jinchuriki from the Akatsuki, her village was also responsible for the deaths of several of the notorious organization's members. Sasori of the Red Sand, Hidan the Jashinest, and Kakazu of the Hidden Waterfall, all S-rank criminals.

Unfortunately, when the Akatsuki's leader, Pain, personally attacked the Hidden Leaf, causing its destruction, Tsunade had fallen into a coma from chakra exhaustion.

Mifune couldn't help but frown at the Senju princess's temporary replacement, Danzo. He didn't know the man, but he had heard of him. The Shinobi of Darkness, the one who worked from the shadows. Danzo just had that aura that made Mifune not want to trust him. Scratch that, it made Mifune want to draw Kurosawa and slice Danzo's head off before he got stabbed in the back.
