"Now that all these goals have been achieved, the close-knit family ties have lost their meaning. Besides, it's not like we're not allowed to keep the Akimichi surname anymore, like the Senju clan..."

Ding didn't say what came next, but Hai was relieved.

Shikaku patted Choza on the shoulder and said, "So sometimes you're the most clear-headed one. Being well-fed and watered is the most important thing."

……

After taking Ino home, Yun went back home.

As expected, upon entering the house, he found his two family members waiting for him again.

After Quan teased her and her mother questioned her, Yun finally managed to get through it and went upstairs.

He kicked the little nine-tailed fox blocking the doorway away and then closed the door behind him.

"boom."

Just as he was about to curse, he sensed a force pressing down on him, and Little Nine-Tailed Fox quickly tucked its nine tails between its legs and slipped downstairs.

As night falls, let's take a look at the world of the limited-time Tsukuyomi, as usual.

More than three years have passed. After the twenty-first transaction, the chakra of the nine tailed beasts has combined, and their sensory range has expanded once again.

Perhaps I could give it a try. Right now, I'm on the same level of power as Kaguya Otsutsuki.

……

The world of Tsukuyomi (limited time).

Five years have passed in the real world, but only three years have passed here where time flows relatively slowly.

Sasuke joined the Hidden Cloud Village, gradually mastering the Lightning Release Chakra Mode, and also began to grasp the nature transformation of Lightning Release Chakra.

Meanwhile, Uchiha Izumi was also working hard, and with her three-tomoe Sharingan, she had already been promoted to Jonin of Kumogakure.

Raikage Building.

The Fourth Raikage looked at the intelligence report in his hand, his brows furrowed, indicating that he was not at peace.

"Bang bang bang."

"Come in!"

Mabui led Darui in, and the two looked at the Fourth Raikage.

The scroll was tossed over, and Darui caught it and looked at it before asking, "The Fifth Kazekage of Sunagakure? I heard he's very young and is also the Jinchūriki of the One-Tailed Beast."

The Fourth Raikage nodded: "The entanglement between Ashura and Indra has continued, even after reincarnation. We have been infiltrating Konoha for the sake of Ashura's chakra reincarnation."

"This intelligence comes from Konoha. The Kazekage of Sunagakure, the Jinchuriki of the One-Tailed Beast, was kidnapped by the Akatsuki. Sunagakure requested help from Konoha and has already rescued him."

"Chiyo is dead, and Sunagakure's power has long since fallen to rock bottom. They are no threat."

"What I need to know is... detailed information about the Akatsuki organization and Naruto Uzumaki."

After a moment of silence, Darui replied, "Naruto left Konoha more than two years ago and has been training with Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin. Because it's always been just the two of them, we don't know much about how much he's grown."

"And the Akatsuki... does Lord Raikage suspect that?"

The Fourth Raikage nodded, then stood up and looked out the window.

"What that person said back then was that an enemy surpassing Madara Uchiha's power would appear, and now this Akatsuki organization is no simple matter."

"The Sand Village has declined, but it is still one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages. It was only two members who were able to kidnap the Kazekage, and he was a Jinchūriki!"

The emphasis was placed on the term "human jinchūriki".

Mabui, who was standing nearby, said, "Lord Yukito will be here soon. Should we go to Yunlei Gorge to inform Lord Bi?"

The Fourth Raikage turned around: "Does that bastard think about holding his concert every day and having him come and cause trouble? It's pointless for him to come."

Just then, Yukito arrived.

Accompanying her was the latest intelligence from Konoha.

The scroll containing the Fourth Raikage's results opened: "Shukaku within the Fifth Kazekage has been extracted."

???

At the same time, all of them looked over.

Yugito exclaimed in shock, "With the Tailed Beast extracted, the Jinchuriki cannot possibly survive!"

The Fourth Raikage said, "Our spies know these basic things very well. But they don't know the specific reasons, but the One-Tailed Beast has indeed been obtained by the Akatsuki."

"It seems this organization is operating by collecting the Tailed Beasts. Do they want to obtain the Tailed Beasts and control this strategic power?"

Meanwhile, the two-tailed Matatabi inside the wooden body was also pondering.

"I need to go to Konoha."

"Huh? At this time?"

"Hearing that the One-Tail was extracted, I could sense that something was wrong. And since Naruto Uzumaki was involved in the rescue, the Nine-Tail inside him might know something."

"Okay, let me ask first."

In reality, Yugito said, "The Two-Tails said it needs to go to Konoha. Its motives for collecting the Tailed Beasts have made it uneasy as well."

After speaking, the Fourth Raikage hesitated for a moment.

After the death of the Third Hokage, the destruction of Root and the killing of Danzo, Konoha had no choice but to find Tsunade, one of the Legendary Sannin, to serve as Hokage.

This is a Kage completely different from Hiruzen Sarutobi. I met him once. Although he has hemophobia, he is exceptionally firm in his principles.

Moreover, intelligence from Konoha indicates that the other party's symptoms have improved.

Tsunade is a woman who will not budge an inch on her bottom line, and the relationship between Kumogakure and Konoha is not good now, after all, the Uchiha defected from Konoha and joined Kumogakure.

At this moment, Mabui, who was holding documents, spoke up: "If the other side's goal is really the Tailed Beasts, then all five great ninja villages will inevitably be their targets. So, before eliminating this enemy, the five great ninja villages might actually cooperate."

"Of course. The premise is that the organization's combat strength is truly above that of Uchiha Madara. In that case, Kumogakure, which first proposed a joint resistance, will inevitably have an advantage in overall command."

The Fourth Raikage thought for a moment and nodded.

Mabui's wisdom can be trusted, and there's even less reason for Uchiha Un to deceive me about the information he provided back then.

"Ask Konoha about everything that happened in Sunagakure, and reveal that we know something about Akatsuki, and they'll take the bait."

Mabuyi nodded and then left.

Darui sighed as well; the peaceful days seemed to be coming to an end, and troubles were bound to increase.

After thinking for a moment, Darui looked at the Fourth Raikage.

If the enemy is someone who surpasses the likes of Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju, is there anyone in Kumogakure... or even the Five Great Shinobi Villages who can stand against them?

……

At the same time, the immortal duo, dressed in black uniforms with red clouds and wearing straw hats, appeared at the gate of Kumogakure.

"One of the Five Great Ninja Villages, if they could all become followers of Lord Jashin, hahaha!"

Hidan was somewhat arrogant, but as he and Kakuzu approached, the Cloud Village ninja guarding the gate immediately activated the alert.

For a time, the immortal duo were completely unaware of what was happening until they were surrounded.

"Looks like we've been discovered... It seems our plan to capture the Two-Tails has failed. Let's launch a full-scale attack."

“We can kill them all and offer them to the great evil god.”

"Let's begin. If there's an opportunity, lure the Two-Tails Jinchuriki away, and then carry out the capture plan?"

The two spoke quite loudly, and their open and frank discussion seemed to show no disdain for the Cloud Village ninjas.

In a fit of rage, a figure charged straight at them.

"Squeak..."

A thunderclap sounded, and a layer of lightning on the ground rendered it immobile.

Then...

The scythe flew out in March, and a head rose into the air, blood spurting from its neck.

"careful!"

"asshole!"

"Just kill them!"

……

Amidst the roars, the few who had been told to only stand by were charged forward again.

"boom!"

A fist covered in earthly resentment rose from the ground, killing one person with a single blow.

The next second, the light flashed and disappeared.

The kunai, completely enveloped in lightning, shot out, but only managed to destroy one of the clones.

Fire Release: Head Engraving!

The flames swept through, engulfing the Chunin who couldn't escape. He landed dead.

"Then let's make a huge scene first!"

In an instant, the two charged into the crowd.

The Earth Grudge Fear's attack method was very special. With the appearance of three masks and the combination of ninjutsu, the people who surrounded it had no way to deal with it.

"Shh!"

The lightning-encased hand blade sent the March Scythe flying back, and then, amidst flashes of lightning, it appeared before Kakuzu again.

The hand chop went straight for his heart.

"boom!"

With no way to parry, Kakuzu withdrew and retreated.

"The Fourth Raikage... such speed is astonishing."

"But you need to know that your combat experience is far inferior to mine."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a blue flame attacked, which Kakuzu casually dodged.
