I am the new Hokage of Konoha.

The thought of how she had been laughing without even realizing it made her face flush.

Similarly, the nine-tailed fox inside her was also very annoyed.

Enraged, Kushina quickly donned the Nine-Tails' chakra cloak again and began to fight once more.

"What bad luck!"

Killer Bee's face turned very ugly after his usually confident escape methods were exposed.

His condition was far worse than before, and to make matters worse, there was not only the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, but also the newly arrived Fourth Hokage.

"There's really no escaping it now!" Killer Bee sighed helplessly.

That is indeed the case.

With Yun Ting and Jiu Xin Nai working together, he quickly couldn't hold on and was eventually captured.

Five Elements Seal!

When Kushina used this sealing technique again, she no longer had the same high spirits as before.

If Yun Ting hadn't intervened, she would have almost made a fool of herself.

Imagine how embarrassing it would be if you were still completely unaware, and then you brought Killer Bee back to everyone, proudly announcing that this was the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki you had personally captured, only to find out that it wasn't him at all.

Fortunately, none of this has happened yet.

Thinking of this, Kushina glared fiercely at Killer Bee again.

It is said that people of the same kind understand each other more deeply.

But she is not like that.

In contrast, Killer Bee dreamed of all the Jinchuriki in the ninja world uniting together, becoming brothers, and sweeping away all evil in the ninja world.

Kushina had no interest in that.

For her, Konoha, her husband, and her beloved son are the most important things.

After grabbing the real Killer Bee, Kushina glanced at the fake Killer Bee and asked, "Hokage-sama, what should we do with the fake one?"

"Of course I'll bring it back. There's a lot of Eight-Tails chakra inside. Konoha can study it." Yun Ting stepped forward, pressed his hand, and the fake Killer Bee quickly broke free of its disguise, reverting to an octopus leg.

Yun Ting picked it up and then left with Kushina.

With this, the capture of the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki was complete.

Meanwhile, when Yun Ting's other wooden clone arrived at the battlefield between Zhi Shui and Yu Mu Ren, he found that the battle had already ended.

"Lord Hokage!" Uchiha Shisui said respectfully, carrying the unconscious Yugito in one hand.

"Well done, Zhishui!" Yunting praised.

The Two-Tails is relatively weak among the Tailed Beasts, and Yugito is not a perfect human. Although Uchiha Shisui was required not to use Kotoamatsukami, he was still able to overpower it with Susanoo.

As for escaping, it would be extremely difficult to do so in front of someone with the reputation of "instantaneous movement and still water".

In this way, the Jinchuriki of the Two-Tails and the Eight-Tails were all captured. In addition, the Cloud Ninja army was either killed or surrendered. It can be said that they were almost completely wiped out.

As for whether or not underwear was ultimately involved, that depends on the water gate incident.

If he could capture the Fourth Raikage, the leader of the Cloud Ninja, then Yun Ting wouldn't mind stabbing his already defeated opponent in the back one last time.

Chapter 116 Raikage's Decision

Yun Ting's idea is excellent.

If the Fourth Raikage can be captured alive or killed in this battle, then the upper echelons of the Cloud Ninja will undoubtedly be wiped out.

With the annihilation of a full 10,000 Cloud Village ninja troops, it's not impossible to strike at the heart of the enemy and expand the victory.

Although there are still many troops stationed at the Kumogakure headquarters, and even a considerable number of border garrisons specifically left to guard against the Iwa ninja, it is highly questionable how much power these people can exert in the absence of a leader.

Currently, Yun Ting still has 5,000 Konoha ninja soldiers at his disposal.

Compared to the initial number, although a thousand people were lost, most of them were simply injured and needed to recuperate.

Only two or three hundred people actually died in battle.

This would have been a very minor casualty in previous wars.

When the Konoha side finished tallying the casualties and informed everyone, many Konoha ninjas who had survived World War II and World War III were all surprised.

This was due not only to the relatively short duration of the entire main battle, but also to Tsunade's efforts.

If it weren't for the latter's healing technique, many Konoha ninjas would have died in battle instead of just being injured.

This battle undoubtedly profoundly demonstrated Tsunade's importance to Konoha and its ninjas, as the pinnacle of medical ninjas.

It's no wonder that the latter left the village early and wandered outside for more than ten years without ever returning. But after the Third Hokage died in battle, the first thing everyone in the village thought of was to welcome Tsunade back and make her the Fifth Hokage.

Today alone, so many lives have been saved. One can only imagine how many Konoha ninjas have been saved in World War II, World War III, and other times before that, through Tsunade's efforts or the Konoha medical ninja system she spearheaded.

Even the ambitious Danzo could only rationally suppress his ambitions when facing Tsunade, and did not cause a ripple during the election of the Fifth Hokage.

This gives an idea of ​​her immense prestige in Konoha.

Of course, the greatest contributor to this battle is none other than Yun Ting.

After all, the fact that he killed more than two thousand Cloud Ninja, accounting for more than half of the total Cloud Ninja casualties, speaks volumes.

Of the five thousand Konoha ninja, after deducting the need to guard the Cloud Ninja prisoners, occupy key points along the way, and provide logistical support, only about three thousand could be mobilized in the end. However, with the assistance of top-tier ninja such as Kumogawa, Tsunade, Minato Namikaze, Shisui Uchiha, and Kushina Uzumaki, attacking Kumogawa Village would not be a problem.

However, all of this is predicated on the Fourth Raikage not escaping.

The Fourth Raikage enjoys immense prestige in Kumogakure, not only because of his own actions but also because of the political legacy inherited from his lineage.

If this person were released, with his immense prestige, he would undoubtedly be able to inspire his subordinates' fighting spirit, unite the Cloud Ninja, and even the entire power of the Land of Lightning to resist him.

By then, Yun Ting and the others will not only be facing the Cloud Ninja, but also the villagers of the Hidden Cloud Village, the entire power of the Land of Lightning, and even the restless ambitions of other ninja villages in the face of mutual dependence.

It's even possible that the Ninja World War will be fully launched once again.

This is not a good thing for Konoha at the moment.

If that were the case, Konoha would be facing a one-against-four situation at the same time.

Furthermore, even if the Cloud Ninja cannot win in a direct confrontation, with the advantage of home ground and the prestige of the Fourth Raikage, they can definitely break down the entire Cloud Ninja force into smaller units and use guerrilla tactics in a true ninja style to fight against Konoha.

If the matter drags on, it will undoubtedly cause great trouble for Konoha, which is already far inferior to what it has, and may even affect Yunting's subsequent plans.

Ultimately, the effort and reward are disproportionate, resulting in more harm than good.

Of course, if the other party is killed or captured, then Yun Ting might as well increase the spoils of war.

After all, without a leader, with morale plummeting and no one of sufficient stature to step forward, the Cloud Ninja are easily defeated.

Even if they cannot permanently occupy Kumogakure by then, they can still return after plundering it extensively, reaping considerable rewards.

Ultimately, the key to everything lies with the Fourth Raikage.

Unfortunately, things in the world cannot ultimately be determined by personal will.

On a remote battlefield far from the direct confrontation between Konoha's Cloud Ninja and the Hidden Leaf Village.

Minato Namikaze, on whom Yun Ting had placed high hopes, was frowning as he looked at the Fourth Raikage opposite him.

Judging from his appearance, Minato was undoubtedly in much better shape and had fewer injuries.

On the other side, the Fourth Raikage, A, looked much more disheveled.

Not only was he covered in blood, but he also had a gaping hole in his abdomen, and his right arm had collapsed limply. He was clearly at a significant disadvantage in the fight.

Minato, however, was not in a good mood.

It wasn't just because a group of nearly a hundred Cloud Ninja soldiers, who looked extremely flustered, accidentally wandered into this place; after discovering the Fourth Raikage, they rushed over as if they had found their backbone.

Furthermore, his Sage Mode time had already ended.

Although Minato could hold his own against the Fourth Raikage without relying on Sage Mode, it was easy for him to defeat the physically stronger Raikage with his attack methods, but it would be very difficult to kill him.

Minato sighed softly; he had a premonition that he wouldn't be able to catch this big fish today.

That is indeed the case.

The arrival of the Cloud Ninja 100-man squad, who had narrowly escaped from the battlefield, not only increased the power in the hands of the Fourth Raikage, but also brought him extremely bad news that made him feel as if he were facing an abyss.

"What did you say? The Cloud Ninja army has been defeated!"

The Fourth Raikage, A, used his only remaining strong left arm to pull the Cloud Ninja in front of him, his voice filled with disbelief as he questioned him.

However, the fearful words of the Cloud Ninjas around him that followed forced him to face reality.

"Lord Raikage, the Cloud Ninja army has truly been defeated!"

"That Hokage of Konoha is terrifying! The colossus he summoned, which was dozens of times larger than the Eight-Tails, was wiped out in just one move! How can we continue fighting like this?"

"At that time, the army was without command and could only run around on its own. It seems that Lord Tsuchishiro's fate was also grim."

"The same applies to the two Jinchūriki."

"Lord Raikage, let's go quickly! The remaining Cloud Ninja can't do without you, Lord Raikage!"

"Yes, Raikage! If we don't leave soon, Konoha's reinforcements will be here."

"It's one thing to suffer a crushing defeat in the Land of Hot Water, but we absolutely cannot allow Konoha to enter the Land of Lightning!"

"Lord Raikage, the war is not over yet, and we still need you to take over!"

"Lord Raikage, let's go!"

"Lord Raikage..."

"..."

Listening to the advice of the Cloud Ninja who were clearly terrified, the Fourth Raikage, A, closed his eyes in pain, his body trembling uncontrollably.

It wasn't fear, but sadness, and anger.

A mighty army of ten thousand ninjas!

It can be said that Kumogakure (Hidden Cloud Village) is the essence of the entire Land of Lightning.

How could it be gone so quickly?

He also has his brother Killer Bee, Tsuchishiro whom he regards as an elder, Yugito the Jinchūriki, and so on.
