Naruto: Evil is easy to commit, making Amegakure great again.

The Land of Lightning, Hidden Cloud Village.

A, the then Third Raikage, was sitting in his office, reviewing the intelligence report sent back by a spy from a Kumogakure village within the Land of Rain: "Sunagakure has launched an undeclared war on the Land of Rain."

A cold laugh involuntarily rose in his heart.

"What a despicable act... It's a disgrace to the reputation and status of the Five Great Nations of the ninja world!"

He is the leader of Kumogakure, the village of the Land of Lightning, one of the five great nations of the ninja world.

The Third Raikage, A, strongly condemned and despised Sunagakure's undeclared war on the Land of Rain.

In his view, Sunagakure, which dares not even wage war openly against small countries and only dares to launch sneak attacks and wage war without declaring war, has long lost its former glory and is gradually declining.

If things continue to develop this way, it won't be long before the reputation of the entire Sunagakure village plummets.

They are no longer worthy of the title "a powerful nation in the ninja world".

"Father, did you need something from me?"

Just then, Ai, the young man who had received a message from the Third Raikage and arrived at the Raikage's office as quickly as possible to inquire about the situation from his father, stepped forward.

He asked his father why he wanted to see him.

"You've come, Ai."

Upon hearing this, the Third Raikage tossed the intelligence report on his desk to his son, A, who was standing opposite him, without the slightest hesitation.

He gestured for him to take a good look at the intelligence report before speaking to him.

"Um?"

Instinctively, Ai reached out and steadily caught the intelligence report, then read it carefully with utmost attention.

Before long, he understood why his father had summoned him to Raikage's office for a talk.

"Has the Sand Village launched an undeclared war on the Land of Rain?"

A powerful ninja nation actually launched a war without declaring war on a tiny country...

To A, the son of the Third Raikage, this was utterly shameful and despicable!

They completely lacked the demeanor of a great ninja nation.

This infuriated him.

Don't let your emotions control your thinking!

Although the Third Raikage was known throughout the ninja world as a tough and warlike individual.

But this still doesn't change the fact that he is a competent politician.

"Father......"

At this time, Ai Shang was still young.

They don't understand the power struggles and calculations between countries, nor can they see through the political conspiracies hidden beneath the surface.

His principles for acting are mostly based on passion or impulsiveness.

His thoughts and ideas were completely different from those of his father, the Third Raikage.

He judges right and wrong based solely on his own likes and dislikes, unlike his father, the Third Raikage, who would stop at nothing and proceed cautiously for the benefit of Kumogakure and the entire Land of Lightning!

This is precisely the fundamental reason why Kumogakure (Hidden Cloud Village) gradually prospered and became powerful under the leadership of the Third Raikage...

"What else did you see in this incident besides the despicable and shameless nature of Sunagakure, A?"

To be frank, the Third Raikage had plans to train his son, A, to become the Fourth Raikage.

To this end, he introduced Ai to politics early on, introduced him to many high-ranking officials in the Hidden Cloud Village, and actively cultivated an image of "loving the village and its people" within the village.

This was solely to ensure that when he succeeded him as "Raikage," he could take the position without any resistance.

Continuing its own development path and political line, it led the Hidden Cloud Village to gradually conquer the various countries of the ninja world.

To achieve the great goal of "unifying the ninja world".

By then, he will have been dead for who knows how many years.

They would still feel immense comfort and happiness if they knew this in the afterlife...

"I can still see the tenacity and indomitable spirit of the Rain Country ninjas, Father!"

The Third Raikage: "..."

How can I even describe my son's thought process...?

At this stage, young people like Ai are simply the epitome of being simple-minded and physically strong.

He completely lacked the political cunning he would later develop, willing to use any means necessary for the benefit of Kumogakure and even the entire Land of Lightning, secretly plundering other countries' bloodlines and secret techniques, and even turning the tables to gain political advantage if he failed to abduct anyone.

Only those who resort to fists at the slightest disagreement, displaying a reckless and violent nature.

This truly gave the Third Raikage, who was also his father, a real headache.

He believed that someone with his son's personality was simply born to be bad at politics.

They can only become objects of wanton fooling and ridicule by politicians and high-ranking officials in other countries.

They suffered a great humiliation.

"well......"

The Third Raikage sighed helplessly.

He slowly got up from behind his desk, walked step by step to his son Ai, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder.

Then......

"Bang--!!!!!!"

The Third Raikage suddenly unleashed his power.

Without any warning, she smashed her own son into the ground like a "tree".

He only showed his head, looking at him with a bewildered and pained expression.

"Father...Father...what do you mean by this?"

The young Ai did not understand why her father treated her so brutally.

He was telling the truth from the bottom of his heart.

I have no idea what got into my father.

They attacked me without any warning.

They're practically treating him like someone from Sunagakure.

He truly is an unfit father...

"My foolish son, when will you finally come to your senses and understand that politics is not about acting on impulse, but about human relationships and the exchange of interests..."

The Third Raikage sighed softly, gazing at the defiant young man, Ai, with a complex expression.

I felt inexplicably tired.

"this......"

Young Ai was speechless for a moment.

He wasn't interested in these complicated matters anyway.

He preferred a physical, heated debate with his father to discussing politics with him.

"Listen to me, Ai, you have to..."

"Whoosh—!"

Suddenly, a dark-skinned figure of a Kumogakure ANBU ninja appeared abruptly in the Raikage's office.

It ignores the "intimate" interaction between the Third Raikage and his son A.

He promptly handed over the latest intelligence he had just received regarding the outcome of the battle between the Land of Rain and the Hidden Sand Village to the Third Raikage.

He will be the one to think and judge, and decide what role the Hidden Cloud Village will play in the Second Shinobi World War.

"Lord Raikage, this is the latest battle report regarding Sunagakure's undeclared war on the Land of Rain!"

The moment the ANBU ninja knelt down on one knee and respectfully handed the intelligence to the Third Raikage, the situation became clear.

The Third Raikage, who had originally planned to lecture his son, decisively stepped forward, took the information, and read it very carefully.

"Whoosh—!"

Almost the instant the Third Raikage received this information.

The ANBU ninja from Kumogakure who was responsible for delivering the intelligence disappeared without a trace.

Only the Third Raikage, with a solemn expression, and his son A remained, staring at each other in bewilderment.

Two completely different ideas began to emerge in their minds.

The Third Raikage: "The Sand Village was easily defeated by the Land of Rain without a declaration of war. Even the large Sand Village force, composed of thousands of Sand Ninja, was completely annihilated by the new leader of the Land of Rain, Jiang Ming, with no survivors. This is not a good sign..."

Young Ai: "Damn it, everyone except my dad saw me being shoved into the ground like a tree by my father... I have to quickly think of a way to crawl out of the ground to prevent more people from seeing my current embarrassing state and making me the laughing stock of the entire Hidden Cloud Village!"
