Konoha: Who is the good person?

Yamanaka Kei frowned, recalling the results of activating a large-scale sensory technique when he fought against Dotai.

At that time, the Third Raikage and his son were the first to rush towards Dotai's residence.

Killer B's movements were only slightly slower than the two.

In addition, several high-level Cloud ninjas also moved towards Dotai's residence after hearing the commotion of the battle.

The key point is that he didn't find any particularly strong individuals around Killer B.

Why?

Yamanaka Kei was very sure that there was no record in his memory of Gyūki, the Eight-Tails, rampaging after Killer B became a Jinchuriki.

And in the original story, during the Third Shinobi World War, Killer B was already able to use the power of the Eight-Tails well, and cooperated with the future Fourth Raikage to fight against Minato Namikaze.

To achieve this, the body must first adapt to the power of the tailed beast.

Then, victory must be achieved in the confrontation with the tailed beast, and finally, reconciliation with the tailed beast must be completed.

None of these can be accomplished overnight.

Even Naruto, the protagonist chosen by destiny, only initially adapted to the power of the Nine-Tails' four tails after training with Jiraiya for three years.

Even if the Eight-Tails is not as strong as the Nine-Tails, its strength should not be underestimated.

Based on this calculation.

During this period, Killer B should at least have initially adapted his body to the power of the Eight-Tails, and had preliminary communication with the Eight-Tails.

Since this is the case, how could he suddenly go berserk?

Was he ambushed like the previous Jinchuriki, Blue B?

"What exactly is going on?"

The Third Raikage had a heavy expression, his arms crossed in front of his chest, and his imposing aura made many ninjas around him tremble.

"Lord Raikage, before tonight, Killer B-sama didn't show any abnormalities. He was even preparing to support Dotai-senpai, but for some reason, he sprained his ankle when he went out, and bumped his head on the eaves when he jumped towards the roof..."

The Anbu ninja in charge of guarding Killer B answered the Third Raikage's question tremblingly.

Speaking of tonight's encounter.

The expression on his face under the mask was extremely strange.

It's one thing to sprain his ankle when he went out, but to jump onto the roof and hit his head on the eaves, he could also attribute it to the after-effects of the sprained ankle.

But after landing, he staggered and fell into the stinky ditch.

Before he could get up, a large piece of brick fell from the roof that had just been broken, and smashed him into the stinky ditch, forcing him to swallow a mouthful of mud...

In less than three minutes.

Those things that would usually be talked about for a long time even if they happened once, happened continuously without interruption.

The final result was...

The Eight-Tails went berserk.

Then, after struggling for a long time, seeing the Third Raikage and others arrive, and the Jinchuriki was about to lose consciousness, the Eight-Tails inexplicably shrank back.

"..."

The Third Raikage Ai glared at the Anbu ninja beside him.

Is this really not a joke?

Can a person be so unlucky?

Moreover, he inexplicably started to go berserk, and after he arrived at the scene, he inexplicably ended it. Is this reasonable?

Could it be that the Eight-Tails was afraid of being beaten by him?

Is that possible?

That guy is a stubborn mule.

Even if he fought him to exhaustion and was eventually sealed up, he never yielded.

"I seem to understand..."

Yamanaka Kei perked up his ears, listening to the faint conversations between the Third Raikage and his subordinate Anbu ninjas in the big pit, and secretly turned off the effect of the black term [Ominous Conflict].

Ominous Conflict (Black): When the host actively activates the term, within the range of perception, once someone issues a 1v1 invitation, the other party will definitely accept the challenge. The fate-related term effects of both combatants will be completely eliminated, and the states of Bad Luck, and Plagued by Misfortune will be triggered, greatly increasing the probability of mistakes, the probability of illness, the probability of misfortune, the probability of accidents, etc., and greatly increasing the probability of injury and the probability of death.

During this period, the effect of Ominous Conflict has been in the activated state.

It's just that he has never invited anyone to 1v1, and no one has said such a thing to him.

Fearing exposure of his identity, he has never dared to use large-scale sensory ninjutsu.

Who would have thought...

Tsk~

Killer B was actually able to win the lottery!

This guy, most likely, was habitually talking to the Eight-Tails in his body when he was preparing to support Dotai.

As a result...

Tragedy.

"Huff..."

The Third Raikage's face was extremely dark, and he barely suppressed the irritability in his heart.

He looked at Dotai, who was being carried on a stretcher, followed by more than a dozen barefoot ninjas, and asked in a deep voice.

"Are there any results?"

"No, the enemy has most likely all retreated."

"Your suspects."

"At first, I thought it was Konoha, after all, whether it was my position or the opponent's swordsmanship and ninjutsu, they all seemed to fit the characteristics of Konoha ninjas, but, it's not Konoha."

"Speak plainly."

The Third Raikage frowned slightly when he saw that Dotai was still being mysterious.

If this guy hadn't just been attacked and had some irreversible injuries left on his body, he would have lost his temper on the spot.

What time is it already, can't he speak more straightforwardly?

"Cough cough... My family's protective barrier is divided into a surface barrier and an underground barrier. There are not many ways to invade the barrier without triggering an alarm."

"And just now, the Anbu ninjas also detected traces of Water Release that had not completely dissipated at the broken water pipe underground."

"Currently, the Anbu is tracing the source along the traces."

Seeing that his boss had already begun to be impatient, Dotai quickly told all the known information.

"...Kirigakure?"

A cold light flashed in the Third Raikage Ai's eyes, and the suppressed powerful Lightning Release chakra in his body surged.

Including Rodye of last night, a full ten assassinations!

Except for Dotai, who was stronger and survived this premeditated assassination, everyone else died.

If it weren't for Dotai's confession, based on the traces of Water Release, Fire Release, Earth Release, and Wind Release mixed everywhere at the scene, he would naturally suspect Konoha first.

But now, the most crucial evidence directly pointed to Kirigakure, whom he had never taken to heart before!

Those traces and evidence placed on the surface seemed to be deliberately misleading.

And Killer B's inexplicable encounter also made him think of Blue B's sudden rampage and madness back then.

There is no memory, no reason can be found, and even in retrospect, no clues can be found.

Kirigakure!

Very good! Very good!

You guys were secretly behind Blue B's incident back then!

Faced with repeated provocations.

The Third Raikage Ai was utterly furious.

Their Cloud Village had not encountered such a large-scale assassination operation for many years.

"Since Kirigakure wants to start a war! Then let's fight!"

Raikage Ai swept across the surrounding high-level officials who were already somewhat agitated, and conveyed his will to everyone in a cold voice.

In his opinion, everything is already clear now.

Kirigakure cannot admit what they have done, and the inquiry sent yesterday cannot get the desired answer.

Since this is the case, then use your fists to tell Kirigakure the consequences of provoking them!

[Ding~ S-level career mission 'Change Cloud Village's strategic goal, provoke war in another country' has been completed, reward: Term Draw Opportunity × 2, Term Gift Opportunity × 1, Random White Term Upgrade Opportunity × 1.]

The familiar system prompt sounded.

Yamanaka Kei looked at the Cloud ninjas over there who responded loudly, and secretly clicked his tongue.

Just a statement was enough for the system to determine that the mission had been completed.

The Third Raikage's prestige should be the highest among all Raikages!

And...

Kirigakure is going to explode this time!

With so many burdens placed on them, I don't know if they can bear it!

Kirigakure: I'm so wronged!
