"W-W-Wife?" said Homaru in disbelief, to which The Raikage nodded and glared slightly at everyone daring any of them to insult Yugito, which they wisely did not. Everyone in the room was naturally shocked at this news, as none of them would have guessed that The Raikage had a wife, let alone that his wife was his bodyguard and a Jinchuuriki to boot.
Once Tsunade got over her shock and surprise she began to curse her rotten luck at how the talks were turning out so horribly wrong, she then began to slightly curse Shin for being such an idiot. "Damn you Ashikaga, you blundering fool….are you trying to start a War between New Kumo and us, by insulting The Raikage's wife, Wars have been started for far less", she thought angrily as she glared at him.
"It seems that Konoha has still yet to evolve past its blind ignorance towards Jinchuuriki's even despite the fact that they already banished their own and suffered dearly for it. It makes one wonder how a village founded by such noble men like Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama, became filled with such decadent, blind, ignorant and bigotry fools, not to mention how the Kazekage Gaara can stand working with you", said The Raikage in an angry tone. Before he calm down again, when Yugito placed her hand on his shoulder to calm him down again.
This of coursed outraged and angered many in the Council at having themselves and their village insulted in such a manner, but fortunately before this could spiral out of control and get worse. Tsunade intervened and tried to do damage control.
"Raikage-san please!...I apologise for Council member Ashikaga comment towards your wife. So please accept my apologies and assurance that it will never happen again", spoke Tsunade and gave Shin a look that told him to keep his mouth shut from now on.
"Very will Hokage-san I accept, but I do suggest you keep better control of your advisors or else something unpleasant will happen to them", spoke The Raikage. As he gave Shin one finally glare, where the man audibly gulped and rubbed his neck as the memory of what just happen minutes ago was still fresh on his mind.
Deciding to try and change the subject from what happened, Shikaku spoke up, "Excuse me Raikage-denka, but as troublesome as it is to ask, you said "wives" as in you have more than one?"
"Yes I do", he replied simply.
"Does that mean you have a Bloodline?" asked Konohamaru, as that was the only way for a person to have more than one wife, since if they had bloodline that was endanger of dying out and a village wished to keep it alive. Then the village would then enact the Clan Restoration Act (which all villages with Bloodlines have), which would allow a person with a Bloodline to have more than one wife. Sasuke was a prime example of this act as he was offered it due to being the last remaining Uchiha alive in the village, and the only person who could continue the Uchiha's Sharingan Bloodline. But funny enough Sasuke was too focused on his revenge against his brother right now, to even care about trying to restore his Clan.
"That is partially correct", replied The Raikage simply again.
"Partially?" asked Homura
"I have two Bloodlines", said The Raikage, shocking everyone, as a person with two Bloodlines was extremely rare, as often enough when two different Bloodlines mixed together. They would often cause the child in the mother's womb to die or from birth or even be born deformed, as the Bloodlines could not mix properly or in other cases, the child would simply be born with one of the Bloodlines or even none at all.
"And may we ask what are your Bloodlines", asked Danzo as he wanted to know exactly The Raikage was capable of.
The Raikage of course knew why the Old War Hawk was asking and sneered slightly behind his mask, as he had planned for all this, after which he then began to speak.
"My first Bloodline is called Shinjou Koukai (Body Renewal), it is a newly formed bloodline that has recently come out, where I'm the first one to have it. The Shinjou Koukai allows me to survive any otherwise normally fatal damage and instantly heal from the damage. It also allows me to be extraordinarily resistant to diseases, drugs, and toxins where they are virtually useless against me, as I would recover from them quickly enough".
This of course utterly shocked and stunned Tsunade and the Council after hearing this, as from the description it sounded a great deal like Tsunade's Sōzō Saisei (Creation Rebirth) without the negative effects.
"Impossible!" stated Koharu is shock, "There is no possible way that such a limit exist".
"Very well…. Let me give you a small demonstration", replied The Raikage where he brought out a kunai, and rolled the sleeve of his right arm up and sliced deeply into it. Several people among the Council winced at the sight slightly. However, they soon gasped in surprise as right in front of their eyes, the cut rapidly began to heal itself and soon not even a scar was visible. Everybody was looking at the man dumbfounded; many like Koharu could still not believe what they had just seen.
"Incredible", Tsunade gasped, as a Bloodline of that kind was a gift from the gods to medic's and healers, as the medical capabilities were unlimited. Since there wouldn't be a disease, virus, drug, or toxin that she couldn't cure with something like that helping her. She was also beginning to think, that this was one of the main reasons why Retsu joined New Kumo, since Tsunade was positive she knew about The Raikage's healing Bloodline and it usage for medics.
Of course, after seeing this many on the Council grew gravely concerned, especially Danzo as a Bloodline the allows its wielder to survive virtually any fatally damaging attacks and instantly heal from the damage, as well as allow them to be resistant to diseases, drugs, and toxins, made them a serious threat to Konoha. Especially in couple of decades when The Raikage has enough children who have the Shinjou Koukai Bloodline to fully become a Clan and have grown up, as they would become a major threat to Konoha and him.
"A most impressive demonstration, Raikage-denka", spoke Aburame Shibi. As he too was amazed at what he saw, after which he spoke again, "But what is your other Bloodline?"
