78 Surrender II

As Iwa Tsuchikage is more like a dictator the Tsuchikage usually 'mess' around with multiple women and marrying multiple women. The person Marcus killed was trash to Onoki as he was nothing more than a child of one of the women he messed around with. This child remained a Chunin never to advance making it impossible, but his sacrifice still caused hatred to grow for Marcus.

The Anbu that Minato just killed and the Jonin were descendants of his most loved first wife. They were geniuses like Kakashi, but in the end, was killed by Minato. Onoki wished he had chakra to use dust style as to kill him.

"Give up Tsuchikage do you want any more of your ninja or sons to die?" Minato said breaking Onoki self-monologue. Onoki eyes looked at Minato as veins began to pop out of his head his face and eyes both with red in his anger.

Hiruzen saw this as he started to meditate and calm Onoki down. After a few minutes, Hiruzen managed to persuade Onoki into surrendering with Iwa paying for damages to Konoha from this war and the deaths paying a deadly cost.

Onoki left with his ninja as he glared at Minato completely forgetting about Marcu the reason he came here for. Once Onoki left Orochimaru spoke up.

"Sensei, Why did you ask them to surrender you could have killed Onoki and took over Iwa!?"

Though many didn't say it out loud their eyes showed they agreed with her. They could be a step closer to uniting all the villages under their banner if they did that especially since Onoki was in a week state right now.

"*sigh* Not everything can be conquered with force, peace is meant to come through peaceful means, not violence," Hiruzen said he saw some agree like Jiraiya, Fugaku, and some others, but many against it. Hiruzen let out a sigh again as he said it over and done with along with stating him going into retirement from Hokage as a new one will be selected once they go back to the village in order to appease those against his decision.

Orochimaru was excited as her eyes began to glow but were washed out as Jiraiya's question.

"Sensei what do we do about him?" Jiraiya asks as he pointed to the 'unconscious' Marcu that was on the ground with the soul orb floating around him. Orochimaru was interested into why the orb acted as she may be able to find a 'secret' about the orbs and about him from his body as she began thinking of experiments to do this.

"Hmm"Hiruzen debated for a while as he told them to take the 'unconscious' Marcus with them back to the hidden leaf since Onoki wanted to kill him, the orb surrounding him, and his power which if they discover any of these secrets the village can become even stronger.

Hiruzen assigned Guy to carry Marcus as they headed back to the Konoha since their missions were accomplished.
