Chapter 485: Konoha Retreats from the Land of Earth
The next day, before Iwa-nin could even send word, Nawaki and Minato arrived at Ōnoki's doorstep.
"I was just about to summon them, and here they are on their own."
Thinking Konoha had the sense to cooperate willingly, Ōnoki's expression softened into a smile.
"Please, come in, honored guests of Konoha."
With a wave of his hand, he signaled the Iwa-nin at the door to invite Nawaki and Minato inside.
"Lord Tsuchikage."
Nawaki and Minato bowed politely before taking their seats.
Several Iwa-nin higher-ups flashed looks of displeasure but ultimately held their tongues.
"You've arrived at the perfect time. I was just about to send someone to contact you."
"Today, I plan to launch a full-scale counterattack against the Kumo-nin."
"With your assistance, I am confident we can secure a decisive victory."
