Naruto the Genius

Chapter 30 The Fury of the Raikage
Yamato was still a little confused and asked Naruto: "Although we have dealt with some ninjas from the Moon Country, these people are not elites. This may not be able to stop the Raikage from attacking Konoha." The other two also looked at Naruto like Yamato. Obviously, their thoughts were similar to Yamato's.

Naruto said, "Let's throw all the bodies into the seabed first and clear all traces of the battle, then I will explain to you." Several people worked together and quickly cleared all traces of the battle. Obviously, the Anbu often do such work. At this time, the four members of Naruto's team were eating barbecue, resting and chatting in Yamato's wooden house.

Naruto said: "In fact, I have always wondered why the Raikage only sent some ninjas with weak strength to the Land of Water, and they were not ninjas from his own village." "But then I thought, if I were the Raikage, and the Mizukage suddenly told me that we should attack Konoha together, what would I think? Yes, this is very likely a trap, but I really want to attack Konoha, so this may also be an opportunity. So, what is the best way at this time?"

Yamato said, "I understand. The best way is of course to send some people to the Land of Water to test it out. If it is really a trap, the loss will not be great. In order to minimize the losses, the Raikage sent ninjas from other countries and only left a few ninjas from his own country to report the situation."

Naruto continued, "I wasn't sure at first, but through careful observation, I became more and more certain of my thoughts."

Yamato continued, "So, the captain cannot let me use Wood Release during the battle, and we must erase all traces of our landing on the island. Plus, the captain then used an unprecedentedly powerful Water Release. If nothing unexpected happens, this mission is accomplished."

Naruto said: "Yamato, in order to confirm whether our action is successful, you leave a Wood Release clone hidden in the trees. The Raikage will definitely send someone to check it out later, but remember, you must not expose the clone."

A few days later, in the Land of Lightning, the Hidden Cloud Village, in the office of the Raikage, a ninja with a tired look was reporting to the Raikage: "Lord Raikage, the Land of Water really is not sincere in cooperating with us. All the people who went with me were killed. I managed to escape with great difficulty. If I hadn't encountered a merchant ship, I might still be swimming now."

"Nani! How dare the Mizukage do this!" said the Raikage as he slapped the table in front of him into two pieces.

Then he shouted loudly: "Report the whole process to me in detail, especially the ninjutsu used by the enemy."

Although most people in Kumogakure have long been accustomed to the temper of the Raikage, they are still a little timid. The Kumogakure lowered his head and whispered: "The opponent uses a powerful lightning escape, and his mastery of lightning escape is almost another Raikage."

"What! How is it possible? Is he the guy holding Raiga among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen?" the Raikage said angrily.

The Cloud Hidden Man quickly said, "No, that's not the case. However, when they were surrounded from behind, they had no choice but to use the powerful Water Escape Technique."

The Raikage said, "Hurry up and tell us the details of the whole process. Don't miss any details." So the Cloud Hidden Clan described all the processes in detail. After listening, the Raikage thought for a while and said, "I didn't expect that Kirigakure would have such a ninja who is good at lightning escape. Moreover, this person has never appeared before. He must be from the younger generation. He is a rare talent!" "If it weren't for the fact that you besieged him with too many people and had controlled ninjutsu, I would have suspected that the ninja from our own country had rebelled. But under the siege, he still used water escape, so it can be basically confirmed that he is a genius ninja from the Land of Water. Let's set off now and go to the island you mentioned before to take a look."

The Raikage led a large group of Kumogakure to the small island they had been to before, and they arrived very quickly. Unlike before, the Raikage went to the island himself, activated the powerful Lightning Release, and landed on the island first to confirm that it was not dangerous before letting others go. Then they began to check the traces of the battle on the island to see if they could find any evidence. A large group of people acting together was very efficient.

"Lord Raikage, no traces were found on the island." A Raikage reported.

The Raikage was silent for a while and said, "The Kirigakure is really fast, but there are no ninjas from other countries who are so strong. Doing this is just like covering up the truth. These bastards, I will make them pay the price." Then he punched the ground, raising a large cloud of dust.

"Let's go back to the Land of Lightning first and then settle the score with them!" the Raikage roared.

Just after the Raikage left for a while, Yamato's Wood Release clone came out from a big tree and said, "The Raikage's voice is really loud. I can hear it clearly from such a distance." Then it disappeared with a bang.

At this time, Naruto was resting on another island with Yamato and three other team members. They were staying in Yamato's wooden house and discussing the role of Wood Release with Yamato. Suddenly, Yamato received a message from the Wood Release clone and passed the information to Naruto. After hearing this message, Naruto discussed with the other three members of the team: "It seems that the Raikage should believe that the Water Country killed their people. With the Raikage's temper, Kirigakure will probably not feel good next time, and our mission is basically completed."

Xuan Guang said: "What if, by some chance, the Raikage does not have a large-scale conflict with the Land of Water, it is possible that it will be detrimental to Konoha? In this case, the mission assigned to us by Lady Tsunade cannot be considered completed. Should we continue to stay here and see what the two sides do first?" The other two people also revealed concern in their eyes.

Naruto smiled and said, "There is no need to worry about this. If we stay here any longer, all our efforts will be wasted if we are discovered by the Raikage. As for the Raikage, given his personality, it is almost impossible for him not to have a conflict with Kirigakure. A conflict between two great nations is definitely not a trivial matter. Even if we return to the Land of Fire, we can easily find out what is happening here. To put it another way, even if the Raikage really did not have a conflict with Kirigakure, as long as he did not find our Konoha people, he would not trust Kirigakure again. The reason why the Raikage wanted to join forces with Kirigakure is that he was actually worried that his own country's ability would not be able to pose a threat to Konoha."

Naruto coughed, then smiled and said, "So, our next mission is to quietly return to Konoha, Captain Yamato, let's build a big ship."

Yamato said: "The captain's wisdom is indeed extraordinary." The other two felt the same way and admired Naruto very much.
