P.S.: I originally planned to take a day off to rest, but then I thought better of it and wrote two chapters despite my exhaustion, sob sob...

Chapter 398 The Three Angry Shadows

The Cloud Village elites ran ashore in one go, all looking towards the direction of the Land of Whirlpools with lingering fear.

"Is it really okay for us to abandon Lord Raikage like this?"

A ninja from the Cloud Village said with self-reproach.

Despite being Cloud Village ninjas facing a powerful enemy, they abandoned the Raikage and fled alone.

There is great terror between life and death.

I didn't think much of it at the time, but now that I've calmed down, I realize there's something wrong with it.

If this matter gets out, the ninjas of Kumogakure will never be able to hold their heads high again.

"Lord Raikage's life is far more precious than ours."

"That's what the fastest Kumogakure ninja who ran earlier said."

"If we stay there, we'll only die, while Lord Raikage will at most be captured alive by the 'Poison Master'."

"Huh? Really?"

"Of course it's true. Go back and inform the higher-ups to prepare to ransom Lord Raikage."

"it is good!"

The gloom on everyone's faces vanished.

No one was so naive as to ask, "What if Lord Raikage dies?"

If I really die.

The Hidden Cloud Village had no choice but to hold a grand celebration.

The Land of Whirlpools.

"Raikage, you should just surrender."

Lianye slowly drew her katana from her waist, her black eyes gradually turning crimson.

The Second Raikage's expression was solemn.

He didn't know if he was a match for the "Konoha Poison Master".

But he knew he probably couldn't escape today.

In the distance, a large group of Konoha ANBU and red-haired Uzumaki clan members were seen approaching.

It would be difficult for him to fight Lian Ye alone, let alone with so many people around.

Moreover, he saw the water and earth shadows bound hand and foot in the distance.

The Second Raikage sighed helplessly.

I wish he hadn't gotten involved in this.

Now, all we can do is accept our fate of being captured alive.

Fortunately, Konoha did not intend to kill them; they must have had other plans.

"I surrender." The Second Raikage raised his hands.

"Eat it."

Lian Ye casually tossed out a bottle of poison and explained.

"This is a pill to suppress chakra, in case you do something impulsive in a moment of passion."

He feared that the Raikage might feign surrender and then suddenly break Danzo's neck.

This is not impossible.

Although there are many reckless people in Kumogakure, it cannot be ruled out that there are such people.

Without hesitation, the Second Raikage poured the pill into his mouth and swallowed it in front of everyone.

The moment it entered the mouth, the chakra within the body began to flow uncontrollably.

Lianye waved her hand, and two members of the Dark Guard stepped forward and pinned her down.

"We can't let the Raikage enjoy something this good all to himself, don't you guys agree?"

Renya smiled as she looked at Onoki and the Third Mizukage, then took out two bottles from her ninja tool pouch.

An undercover officer stepped forward, took the contents, and forcibly poured them into the mouths of the two men.

"Lianye, what should we do with these three?"

Danzo Shimura's eyes burned with fervor, his gaze upon the three men as if they were walking treasure chests.

The current Konoha Village has nothing to fear from other villages.

Rather than killing the three shadows, it's better to spare their lives so they can go to their respective villages to exchange for money.

This amount of money is absolutely astronomical.

"Of course, we'll use them to exchange for money to develop the village's economy."

The two looked at each other and smiled simultaneously.

The three shadows: "..."

Oh no, the village's treasury is going to be lost.

It's a classic case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead.

No, it should be "losing both wife and army".

We've really lost out.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes burned with fervor; the village was about to receive another large sum of money.

Should we ask for a ransom of 10 billion taels?

Or should we ask for a ransom of 20 billion taels?

Ugh, this is so frustrating.

How about we compromise and ask for 30 billion taels?

Yes, 30 billion taels per person.

I just don't know if their village can afford that much money.

The three shadows felt countless burning gazes around them, and their bodies trembled involuntarily.

"Mizukage, it's all your fault!" the Second Raikage couldn't help but complain.

“That’s right, I shouldn’t have gotten involved,” Ohnoki chimed in.

He traveled all this way, but he never expected this to happen.

"Hmph, you two are just being wise after the event! That's not what you said back then!"

The Third Mizukage had a grim expression.

Damn it, I was already annoyed about being captured alive.

The two of them, on the contrary, started blaming themselves.

"Mizukage, you seem a bit arrogant!"

The hot-tempered Second Raikage said unhappily.

"Heh heh, if you're not happy, let's fight!" the Third Mizukage shouted, straining his neck.

Once he returns to the village, he will have to launch a war against Kumogakure.

A village that can't even muster twenty elite Jonin dares to be so arrogant.

When the Mist Village forces arrive in full force, let's see if he still dares to be so arrogant!

"Alright, shut up, all of you," Ohnoki said impatiently.

Why are these two idiots arguing?

Shouldn't we be thinking about how to get back at the lowest possible cost?

"What's it to you?" the two said in unison.

Onoki instantly bristled.

These two bastards actually dared to talk to me in such a tone.

good good!

The Hidden Stone Village will remember this grudge.

If he can't beat Konoha, can't he beat Kumogakure, which is suffering from a shortage of talent, and his arch-rival Kirigakure?

Once we return, we will unite with the Land of Wind and launch a war against both countries!

They need to know the consequences of provoking them.

"You two idiots, just wait for Iwagakure's revenge!"

"Hmph, who's afraid of who!"

"Come on then, if you dare!"

The three Kage, who were previously allies, have now engaged in a fierce conflict.

If they hadn't been tied up, there would definitely have been a fierce hand-to-hand fight.

Danzo Shimura couldn't bear to watch any longer and had the Anbu gag them.

Even though they couldn't speak, the three of them still exchanged glances.

"Chief of the Vortex Clan, the matter is settled, we're going back."

Danzo Shimura greeted the Uzumaki clan chief and then led the Anbu away from the Land of Whirlpools.

Once back in the village, they can discuss the ransom issue for the three of them.

"Renya, could I come next time?" Uchiha Kagami asked timidly.

He hadn't had a chance to activate his Mangekyou Sharingan yet.

The battle was over.

They traveled so far just to be a bystander.

"Okay, I'll let you go next time you have a chance."

Lianye agreed without hesitation.

Since they've finally awakened their kaleidoscope, they definitely need to show it off in front of everyone.

If you don't try to show off, you're just wasting your time.

However, Uchiha Kagami could use this to show off in front of the hawkish clan members.

Wasn't the initial purpose of opening one's eyes to intimidate the hawks in the clan?

He was conscripted by Danzo as soon as he was discharged from the hospital.

……

Konoha Village, Hokage's office.

Tobirama Senju's eyelids twitched as he looked at the three figures bound hand and foot in the corner.

"Why were they arrested?"

What a joke!

He only went out for a short while, and he captured three shadows alive.

Have these kids become that strong?
