The Path of the Great Sovereign 46 The Meeting

After the Battle that started the war the Samurai were getting pushed further and further back into the land of Iron. All of the tactics they used to try and overcome their defeat were foiled, step by step the game of war was leaning toward the side of the shinobi.

Sitting in the Throne room Ichizo was informed that the General of the Samurai would like to have a meeting to discuss the war.

"What are our Losses? Compared to theirs?"

"Your Majesty, in total the original deployment force is still mostly a full strength with the expectation of a few that could not survive long enough to receive treatment. Our losses are around in the low hundreds more or less. While theirs amount to the tens of thousands, our Jokyunin are preventing any major losses. " Daisuke reads off the report sent from the front lines.

"So we hold an absolute advantage in the upcoming meeting with their General-Leader, we get to set the terms." As I sit on the Throne something dawns upon me, Samurai were basically the Switzerland of this world yet I forced their hand. The power dynamics are changing and I have just stepped into the world of Major players, many eyes will be on this meeting between The Samurai and Myself.

"Inform The Samurai they may pick the venue for peace talks, Also tell them to invite All Kage of the Great Nations. Daisuke, you, Itachi, and Yuzuki will accompany me to these talks. Also inform the front lines that nothing has yet to be decided any and all aggression before an agreement can be responded to with force."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The news of the battles between the Kingdom of Night and the Samurai of The Land of Iron spread far and wide extremely quickly.

*Lord Hokage POV*

Many different shinobi were seen going in and out of the Hokage's office this news shocked the world. The Samurai were know to be extremely proficient in battle even if they have never all out declared war on any shinobi nation. They use their speed and skill with the Sword to prevent shinobi from using Hand signs which limits attack capabilities. Yet news is being passed that A war between Shinobi and Samurai is occurring in the West! The Nation involved in the War with the Samurai is a Nation I have never heard of The Kingdom of Night, General Mifune of the Samurai has Invited all the 5 Kage to attend the treaty meeting between the Kingdom of Night, Land of Volcanoes, and Land of Iron.

'To Be able to push the Samurai to such an Extent what kind of Shinobi reside within the Land of Night?'

In the reports they were receiving the Land of Night was practically bulling the Samurai with 1,000 combat oriented Shinobi. When the Samurai would try to attack and kill large numbers of Shinobi one of the 3 High level shinobi they have would stop the attack. It was almost like the Kingdom of Night could end the battles anytime they wanted to yet they were just 'Entertaining' the Samurai.

"Lord Fourth, we have information on the Leader of the Kingdom of Night and it's Shinobi."

The Chakra analysis I have in front of me makes me think this is a dream, its Been 5 years since anyone has heard anything about this person.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Every nation received a similar invitation and came to a similar conclusion, The Kingdom of Night is powerful. Even if they have remained neutral it should be known that the Land of Iron's Military capabilities is on par with the 5 Great Shinobi Nations this is why the Shinobi - Samurai agreement has not been breached in many years.

The 5 Kage and their Entourage made their way to The Land of Valleys where the Meeting was taking place. When they arrived at the location the what greeted them was a small yet elegant structure which sat in a large yet beautiful valley surrounded by mountains on 3 sides and the Ocean on the last. They entered the Building what welcomed them was a large circular Table with seven seats each with the flag of the respective Nation hung above it.

The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi sat below the Flag of the Land of Water and placed his Mizukage hat on the Table. Followed by The Fourth Kazekage Rasa, The Fourth Hokage Minato, The Fourth Raikage Ay, and The Third Tsuchikage Onoki.

"Its seems that None of you could avoid something so serious as this Meeting." Onoki Sneered in disdain the Third Great Ninja war was a heavy loss for the Hidden Stone. His resentment for the other Kage was at its Highest.

"Tsuchikage you seem to forget we have no idea what we are dealing with. This new shinobi Nation could be a Threat to all of us and from what I read in the reports we may not have anyway to stop them." Rasa Chimed in to diffuse the Tsuchikage, they may all be in danger no need to break apart now.

After their little exchange the Doors opened again The General of the Samurai entered and proceeded to his seat without a word. After him Ichizo made his entrance wearing his Shinobi battle attire with his Crown on his head and the Kage hat on his back. His Sharingan with the vertical slit of his pupils on display to all, at his flanks Itachi, Daisuke, and Yuzuki trailed behind. He approached the Seat under the Flag of the Kingdom of Night and took a seat after placing his Kage hat on the Table.

All eyes of the other Kage Locked onto the Shinobi that entered. 'His Strength is No Lie' They all felt the Chakra that was subconsciously being released from his body, he was at a level far beyond the other kage sitting at the Table. He was so much more powerful that his Guards were at the level of Kage any thoughts of attacking him where destroyed before they came into fruition, any attacks would be stopped by his guards before it even reached him.

"Im Glad that all of you were able to make the Journey, I am the King of the Kingdom of Night as well as the Kage of the Yamigakure. Some of you may also remember me from my time as Futatsu of The Smiling Trio, I am Ichizo Uchiha the First Yorukage."
