Above the ruins.
Senju Tobirama and his group of four looked indifferently at the dilapidated Kumogakure. Then, wearing black robes with auspicious clouds, they directly charged toward the Fourth Raikage's position.
"The Akatsuki Organization is here again!"
"Haven't they already sealed and taken away the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki?"
"Looking at their direction, it seems to be toward Lord Raikage's side."
"Damn it, stop them!"
"..."
The survivors of the Hidden Cloud Village roared in despair upon seeing this scene.
Immediately after.
Countless Kunai shot toward Senju Tobirama and his group, followed by the roar of various Ninjutsu. For a moment, the sky was filled with Kunai and Ninjutsu, as if trying to drown their group directly.
But unfortunately.
Although Senju Tobirama seemed inferior to Nagato, his strength was by no means comparable to ordinary people.
'Snake-Monkey-Dragon'
'Water Release: Water Formation Wall!'
Senju Tobirama's hand signs were extremely fast.
In less than a twentieth of a second, the three simplified signs were formed, followed by a massive roaring wave of water that directly blocked all the Kunai and Ninjutsu.
Then.
Senju Tobirama did not stop; instead, he began to form hand signs rapidly again.
'Tiger-Snake-Tiger-Snake-Tiger-Boar'
'Water Release: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave!'
Almost in an instant.
As the Water Formation Wall slowly subsided, Senju Tobirama's next technique was already prepared.
The flood covering the sky was like the ocean's wrath, instantly dispersing the formation that Kumogakure had struggled to set up. Although a few experts dodged this move, before they could truly reach Senju Tobirama, his third technique had just finished its hand signs.
'Rabbit-Boar-Ram'
'Water Release: Water Severing Wave!'
A very thin line of water spat from his mouth. This Ninjutsu, which in the original work could cut off the Ten-Tails' tentacles, easily sliced the rushing Kumogakure experts in two.
At this point.
There were no more obstructors in front of Senju Tobirama.
Although this series of clashes seemed complex, it only took less than twenty seconds from start to finish, so short that Sakumo Hatake and the others didn't even have a chance to intervene.
"Go!"
Senju Tobirama spoke indifferently.
After saying that.
He ignored the Kumogakure survivors and immediately headed toward the back mountain of Kumogakure. Sakumo Hatake and the others naturally followed closely behind... Meanwhile, on the other side.
Kumogakure, the edge of the high mountain behind the Village.
This was near Killer Bee's usual residence, but a large crater had been smashed into the mountain valley.
The Fourth Raikage was covered in blood, looking very wretched.
His eyes were completely devoid of light.
There was no way around it!
Planetary Devastation's coverage was too wide, and the Eight-Tails' target was so massive.
He had personally seen the Eight-Tails sealed within it, forming such a large black sphere in the sky, which naturally caused his heart to sink to the bottom.
Not only was Kumogakure's only Eight-Tails not protected, but the heavy battle had also caused severe damage to Kumogakure. More importantly, his brother Killer Bee was also finished!
Nonsense!
He didn't think the Akatsuki Organization would leave their Jinchuriki alive after taking the Eight-Tails.
No, wait... regardless of what the Akatsuki Organization's plans were, if they wanted to use the Eight-Tails, they couldn't kill the Jinchuriki; otherwise, they would have to wait several years to capture the Eight-Tails again.
From this point of view, Killer Bee was safe for the time being.
No!
He had to make good use of this time gap. If he could convince Konoha and other major Ninja Villages, then as long as they could find the Akatsuki Organization's base, it might actually be possible to rescue his brother Killer Bee.
"Yes, there's still a chance!"
"As long as we can hold another Five Kage Summit, I can definitely convince the other Other Ninja Villages to join forces."
"The Akatsuki Organization is the public enemy of the Ninja World. Today they dealt with Kumogakure; who can guarantee they won't act against Other Ninja Villages in the future?"
"Especially—Konoha!"
"The two Tailed Beasts on the Hidden Mist's side haven't been resurrected yet, but Konoha's Nine-Tailed is staying safely in the Village. From this perspective, Konoha must put in great effort, if only for the sake of their own Nine-Tailed."
"..."
A sharp glint appeared in the Fourth Raikage's eyes.
Thinking of this, he began to get excited, wishing he could hold the Five Kage Summit immediately.
But unfortunately.
Just as he had struggled to stand up and prepare to return to the Village to make plans, he froze in place because he felt the sound of battle coming from the Village again.
The Chakra aura was very unfamiliar.
But before the Fourth Raikage could fully figure it out, he saw that the battle in the Village had completely ended, and that group was rapidly approaching his position.
Seeing this, the Fourth Raikage's brow began to furrow slightly.
'Are they coming for me?'
The Fourth Raikage narrowed his eyes, his mind working rapidly.
But before he could understand, Senju Tobirama's group had already arrived.
Seeing the familiar black robes with auspicious clouds, the Fourth Raikage's face turned green: "What is your Akatsuki Organization doing here again? Do you want to go down with Kumogakure completely?"
At this moment, he truly lost his composure.
He was truly angry to the limit, even wanting to strike out regardless of the cost and go down with the Akatsuki Organization.
However... considering Kumogakure's current state, as the Raikage, he still held back!
There was no choice.
Current Kumogakure didn't have the qualification to fight to the death.
Even if he wanted to save his younger brother Killer Bee, he planned to wait until he could bring in Konoha and Other Ninja Villages. Right now, he really didn't want to tear faces with the Akatsuki Organization.
So although his words seemed tough, in reality, he was already prepared to back down!
And regarding this.
The disguised Senju Tobirama couldn't help but sigh. Although the Fourth Raikage seemed reckless, he was actually a sophisticated Kage.
It was just a pity.
If they really were the Akatsuki Organization, they might have actually chosen to let him go. The problem was that their Akatsuki identity was fake!
So, heh.
Of course.
Senju Tobirama didn't bother wasting words either; after all, he had nothing more to say to the Fourth Raikage.
'Rabbit-Boar-Ram'
'Water Release: Water Severing Wave!'
Taking advantage of the fact that the Fourth Raikage hadn't reacted yet, Senju Tobirama directly chose to sneak attack.
A fine line of water swept directly toward the Fourth Raikage's neck.
But at the moment the Fourth Raikage's head was separated from his body, his corpse turned into a piece of decayed wood with a pop.
Basic Ninjutsu—Substitution Jutsu!
The next second.
To the right of Senju Tobirama, the Fourth Raikage began to squeeze his body, extracting Chakra from his cells again, and then directly performed the Lightning Release Chakra Mode, sprinting frantically toward Kumogakure without looking back.
Yes!
The seemingly reckless and stubborn Raikage just ran away without a word.
"I can't die yet!"
"Kumogakure is too weak now. After the Akatsuki Organization went crazy twice, not only did the Village's Ninjas suffer heavy casualties, but even the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails were lost."
"If I, the Raikage, die, what will happen to the broken and weak Kumogakure?"
"No, I absolutely won't accept it!"
"For Kumogakure's sake, I absolutely cannot die!"
