CHAPTER
458 - Discord Among of the Five Kages
The meeting of the kages has began and Gaara is the first to
speak. As a former Jinchuuriki who was nearly killed when
Akatsuki extracted the Bijuu from him, Gaara feels that the
organization is an extremely dangerous threat but thinks the other
villages, save Konoha, have refused to help in dealing with them; and
now with most of the Bijuu stolen already, it may too late to do
anything. But both the Mizukage and Tsuchikage mention that
it may not be too late as it takes time and knowledge to control any of
the Bijuu.
Danzo mentions that the only four people in history who
could truly control the Bijuu were Madara Uchiha, the First Hokage of
Konoha, Yagura the Fourth Mizukage, and Raikage’s brother
Killerbee. The Raikage erupts in rage at that moment, causing
all the bodyguards to jump into action. Mifune tells the
Raikage to watch his manners and each of the kages recalls their
guards.
The Raikgae is angry at the other countries because Akatsuki
is formed from the missing ninja of their villages. He also
blames Suna for helping Akatsuki grow by employing them in the
past. After the Great Ninja Wars, there was a period of
demilitarization, but some countries feared that a sudden outbreak of
war will leave them vulnerable, and so hired Akatsuki as mercenaries.
For example
Gaara’s father, the previous Kazekage, used Orochimaru, a
previous member of Akatsuki in order to try to destroy
Konoha. The Raikage also blames Kirigakure for isolating
itself and because it is rumoured to be the birthplace of
Akatsuki. The Mizukage herself reluctantly mentions that
there is a possibility that the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, was even under
the influence of Akatsuki.
The Tsuchikage turns the table on the Raikage by claiming
that it was Kumogakure’s continual amassing of military power
even during the disarmament period that forced the other countries to
resort to using Akatsuki. The two kages begin to argue when
Danzo reveals that the leader of Akatsuki is probably Madara
Uchiha. Everyone is shocked by the news because no one could
believe Madara could even be alive still. Mifune cuts in and
suggests that the five villages should form the first ninja alliance in
order to deal with Akatsuki. However, this alliance would
need a leader to command all the forces, and as the neutral party,
Mifune feels that he should suggest which of the kages would be most
suitable. To everyone’s surprise, Mifune nominates
Danzo for the task because
Konoha possesses the only Jinchuuriki who has escaped
Akatsuki‘s grasps.
Back in Konoha, Sai confronts Sakura and explains
what Naruto has been up to for her and Sasuke‘s
sake. Sai admits that although he is new to the team and does
not fully understand
the bond between Sakura, Naruto and Sasuke, even
he can tell that Naruto loves Sakura and is doing all this because of
that love. The truth of that statement hits Sakura and she begins to
cry. Sai goes on to say that Naruto has been shouldering the
burden of his promise to her up to now and will carry it for the rest
of his life. He tells Sakura that although it’s
true that Sasuke is making Naruto suffer, she is also causing him pain.
