Naruto: The Strongest Sage.

The Raikage was very unwilling to accept this. This was clearly a battle of revenge for his brother, so why was he going to die for no apparent reason now?

He originally wanted to die together with Kamikawa Aoba. But the fact was that he was going to die before he could inflict any injuries on the other party.

I’m going to die!!!

This thought went back and forth in the mind of the Raikage countless times, but he still couldn't accept it.

But the wound on his chest clearly reminded him that time was running out.

The Raikage ran back to his camp and found a medical ninja to treat him.

But the medical ninja tried his best, but he couldn't stop the wound from spreading until it cut open the entire chest.

The Raikage finally realized that he was indeed going to die.

"Everyone listen. After I die, you must retreat immediately. Or rather, escape, at all costs. Spread the news of my death back to the village. Let the village choose the next generation of Raikage.

You must remember. Don't seek revenge on Konoha, at least not before Kamikawa Aoba dies. He is not the Hokage of the past, he is a figure like Uchiha Madara. What you have to do is to do everything possible to keep the Kumogakure Village from being destroyed."

The wound spread again. The Raikage's entire body was soaked in blood. Even the strongest body in the ninja world began to weaken at this time.

"Lord Raikage, don't give up. There must still be a chance. We can take you back to the village's medical center. They will definitely be able to save you."

Countless Cloud Ninjas gathered around the Raikage, trying to save their Shadow.

However, the ability of Mangekyō Parting cannot be removed by medical ninjutsu in the conventional sense.

They could only watch as the Raikage's chest was slowly torn apart by the strange wound.

"Kamikawa Aoba...kill him and avenge the Raikage."

"Yes, kill him and avenge the Raikage."

"Revenge for Raikage-sama."

A group of Kumo Ninjas were excited and stood up to fight Aoba.

For a moment, Qingye even felt like a villain, but he quickly dismissed the thought.

This is a war, there is no such thing as villains. And even from the perspective of good and evil, the five major countries are all a bunch of scum. Among them, Konoha is still the better kind of scum.

As for the Kumogakure, according to Aoba's standards, this ninja village shouldn't even exist.

At this time, Minato and Kakashi have successfully captured the Two-Tails Yukito. The high-end combat power of the Cloud Ninja team has been annihilated. This group of Cloud Ninjas has no leader and has fallen into chaos.

Most people wanted to fight Qingye and the others to the death, while a few people had already decided to retreat.

When the Raikage's guards accepted his final instructions and left, Aoba immediately threw out four Flying Thunder God Kunai, which were distributed around the Kumo Ninjas.

Minato saw Aoba's actions and his expression changed slightly.

"Qingye, they have been defeated, we..."

"Do they look like defeated ninjas?" Aoba asked, pointing at the group of excited Cloud Ninjas in front of him.

Minato was speechless.

He just didn't want to cause more killings out of habit. But he was no longer Hokage. According to the agreement between Aoba and them, they were now a secret team of the Anbu.

In terms of position, he is even Kakashi's direct subordinate. As the Hokage's assistant, Aoba's status is naturally higher than theirs.

"But if we create so much bloodshed now, one day, it will all come back to Konoha."

Minato's philosophy is that killing and hatred will never end and will go on indefinitely. However, Aoba only needs one sentence to silence him.

"No, they won't. If we just do a little more, they won't have a chance to retaliate."

Compared to Minato, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not raise any questions. On the one hand, he had accepted his identity. On the other hand, he also admitted that Kamikawa Aoba was far better than him in terms of the overall situation. Therefore, he did not express any opinions.

Kakashi also didn't say anything, but he used Flying Thunder God to appear on the retreat route of those Kumo Ninjas, expressing his support for Aoba with his actions.

He was the one who had followed Aoba the longest, and witnessed with his own eyes how Aoba transformed the originally decaying Konoha into the strongest in the ninja world today.

As for killing these Kumo Ninjas, as an elite jonin, is killing a big deal to him?

At this time, the Cloud Ninjas finally realized the problem. It seemed that the other party had no intention of letting them go.

The battle begins with Aoba's air-slashing strike...

Two days later, the news of the battle at Rain Village spread throughout the ninja world.

The Raikage died in battle, and two thousand elite soldiers were lost in the Land of Rain. For a time, the entire ninja world became much quieter.

They were quiet not because they wanted to be quiet, but because they curled up subconsciously, not wanting Konoha to notice them.

In the past, Konoha was recognized as the best in the ninja world. But they had to save face in everything they did. Even the small ninja villages around them were not in danger of being destroyed, and they could still take advantage of them from time to time.

But now, don't say that Konoha Village is taking advantage of it. Look at Konoha's industry. They have now taken over half of the mineral veins in the surrounding small countries such as Yu Kingdom, Tianzhi Kingdom, and Kusanagi Kingdom under their own name.

In response, several small countries could only express their joy. It was their blessing that Big Brother was interested in these mineral veins. As long as Big Brother didn't mind, we could mine them for you and send them to Big Brother.

Konoha, research institute, medical laboratory.

Tsunade was examining Nagato's body.

In the previous battle in the Rain Country, Hiruko actually managed to save Nagato's life, but unfortunately, Black Zetsu used his Shinra Tensei to raze the laboratory to the ground.

The result was that the already seriously injured Nagato was even worse off.

Konan had no choice but to ask Aoba for help again. So Aoba took Nagato back to Konoha and asked Tsunade to save Nagato's life.

But Nagato's situation is not optimistic.

"The Samsara Eye has severely strained his body. But this is not the most critical thing. This kid has an incredibly strong body. As long as he saves his life, he will be able to recover slowly.

The most critical issue is his mental state. He is in a state of self-destruction.”

Giving up on yourself? Aoba thought about it and vaguely understood why. Nagato always believed that he was the child of destiny, the one who would change the fate of the ninja world.

But now he has lost his Samsara Eye and can no longer control his own life and death. This blow made Nagato lose the will to live.

"This kind of thing cannot be solved by external forces. He needs to figure it out himself. Maintain his body functions and give him some time."

Aoba was still willing to give some special treatment to the poor child Nagato.

Just when Qingye was leaving the research institute and preparing to go home, a member of the Hyuga clan came to him.

"Master Qingye, my family's master invites you to a banquet."
