Ninja Of War wrote: Yet, prior to the five kage summit, most of the great shinobi villages did not actively concern themselves with the loss of the bijuu. It took the capture of 7 TB for the shinobi villages to do anything. So I don't think so. That was in recent times. Historically, the Biju were spread to maintain a balance of power. I guess 3 Shinobi wars in relatively quick succession eroded that idea eventually. It's possible that the demise of the Uzumaki helped erode that idea, as it's evident from Minato's seal that they were, at least in theory, close to perfect weaponized Jinchuriki.
