"So, we're not going to do anything?"
Kitsuchi was still somewhat doubtful.
Although the Hidden Stone Village didn't seem to have suffered any losses, it had lost some face.
But without a doubt, this left a significant hidden danger for the future of the Hidden Stone Village.
One must know that the Hidden Stone Village and the Land of Rain bordered each other.
Ōnoki shook his head, saying with a sinister smile, "Let's wait and see. We're not the only ones sending out scouts. Those Cloud Village guys probably can't hold back either."
Although the Hidden Stone Village and the Cloud Village were far apart, they had a long-standing blood feud.
The scouts of the two great ninja villages could be said to have almost reached each other's borders, which was why the Cloud Village discovered the anomaly in the Land of Rain.
At the same time, the Hidden Stone Village had long discovered that the Cloud Village had sent people into the Land of Rain.
"Those muscle-brained brutes won't think ahead and behind. They won't be able to endure such provocation."
"Let them test the other side's specific strength first, and then we'll consider what kind of attitude to show."
"Understood, Tsuchikage-sama is still the smartest."
Kitsuchi couldn't help but chuckle.
But this silly look made Ōnoki unable to restrain the veins popping on his forehead again, gritting his teeth and saying, "I'd rather divide this brain among you."
...
Cloud Village.
Inside the Raikage's office.
A violent roar suddenly erupted.
*Boom!!*
"Bastard! How dare the Land of Rain do this?!"
The solid wood desk was directly smashed by the Fourth Raikage A's dark and sturdy fist, and the papers and documents on the desk flew in all directions.
Even the ground was cracked by the aftermath of his punch.
It was hard to say whether A's strength was too great, or the desk in the Tsuchikage's office was too sturdy.
But at this moment, A's whole body was entangled with Lightning, his entire golden pompadour stood up, and his face was filled with anger and shock.
"These Rain Ninjas, are they crazy? How dare they do such a thing!"
A had just arrived at the Raikage Building today when he saw rows of Cloud Ninja corpses hanging outside the Raikage Building's windows, like sunny dolls.
No one had ever dared to be so presumptuous.
A was immediately furious, smashing the window with a punch and putting down all the corpses.
After inspection, it was found that all of them were ninjas who had been sent to the Land of Rain to investigate a few days ago, not one missing.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of behavior of inserting scouts into other countries is considered self-inflicted risk, and even if they are killed, they cannot blame others.
But this kind of in-your-face provocation, hanging corpses directly in the center of the village, would enrage anyone who saw it.
Especially a very "emotional" village like Cloud Village.
Not only Fourth Raikage A, but the Anbu Ninja beside him also had livid faces, and even Raikage's secretary Mabui, who had been maintaining her composure, had a visibly heaving chest.
Compared to the warning behavior of Hidden Stone Village, which was just hanging them on the border, this provocation undoubtedly stimulated their hearts even more.
This is simply outrageous!
"Mabui, immediately gather the Cloud Village's army and start a war with the Land of Rain! I will personally go to the front line! I want to see what kind of confidence those mud-legged people have to provoke us!"
Fourth Raikage A glared and roared at Mabui.
"Raikage-sama, please calm down. We don't know the specific situation of the Land of Rain yet. If we act rashly, I'm afraid we will fall into a passive situation due to insufficient intelligence."
Although Mabui was also angry, as a qualified secretary, she quickly adjusted her emotions and continued.
"Moreover, the Shinobi World has just emerged from the shadow of war. If Cloud Village takes the initiative to start a war, I am afraid it will also be coveted by the other major Ninja villages."
"Especially with Konoha closing its village, Cloud, which has gained the most benefits, may have already become their next target."
"Damn it! I won't swallow this anger so easily!"
Fourth Raikage A felt a burst of anger in his heart. Having nothing to smash, he punched a stone pillar.
Fortunately, this was not a load-bearing stone pillar, but merely for decoration, otherwise the Raikage Building would have trembled.
Mabui couldn't help but rub her aching forehead and said helplessly, "The best option right now is to pretend that nothing happened, and then unite with other Ninja villages to investigate together and reduce the risk..."
"No way!"
Before Mabui could finish speaking, Fourth Raikage A had already raised his objection.
"This... Raikage-sama..."
"Now Cloud has become the number one Ninja village in the Shinobi World! Now it is being humiliated like this, I can swallow this anger, but the whole village cannot!"
Fourth Raikage A interrupted Mabui again and glared as he said.
"Mabui, immediately prepare the Heavenly Transfer Technique. I and B will personally go and test the depth of this Land of Rain."
Hearing this, Mabui's face changed even more, and she decisively refused.
"No! Raikage-sama, we don't know the information about the Land of Rain. What if..."
"Hmph! Battle is the best way to obtain information."
"But you are putting yourself in danger. If something happens, the entire Cloud Village will fall into chaos."
Mabui argued with reason and refused to budge.
"That's why I'm taking B with me. In this Shinobi World, no one can stop the A-B Combo!"
"But..."
"No buts, I have made up my mind. Mabui, you just need to prepare the Heavenly Transfer Technique."
Before Mabui could dissuade him, Fourth Raikage A directly interrupted her, his figure flashed, and he left the Raikage Building to find Killer B.
"Sigh—"
Seeing this, Mabui could only let out a long sigh.
After all, she was just a secretary, and if the Raikage didn't listen to her advice,
no matter how reasonable she was, there was nothing she could do.
An hour later.
Fourth Raikage A returned to the Raikage Building with a muscular man wearing sunglasses, with dark skin, blond hair, and bulging muscles.
At first glance, they both looked like they were good at growing cotton...
"Yo~ yo~ Big brother, why are you looking for me so urgently~"
Killer B's state was visibly dazed, and even his rap seemed a bit perfunctory.
He was still sleeping in the Kumorai Gorge when he opened his eyes and was brought here by his big brother.
"Accompany me on a mission."
Fourth Raikage A didn't elaborate, but looked at Mabui, who seemed to be ready.
Mabui asked with a somewhat helpless expression, "The coordinates are on the border of the Land of Rain, Raikage-sama, Killer B-sama, are you both ready?"
The purpose of the Heavenly Transfer Technique is to instantly transfer the target to a designated location through high-speed movement. It is not a Space-Time Ninjutsu, but simply high-speed movement, so it will generate intense friction with the air.
It is usually used to transport supplies, and few people can withstand the friction generated by this high-speed movement.
In the past, only the Third Raikage had used this technique to transport himself, and there were no other precedents.
However, Fourth Raikage A and Killer B were not ordinary people. Fourth Raikage A had almost cultivated his body to the extreme, so there was no need to worry at all.
And Killer B was a Perfect Jinchuriki, with the protection of the Tailed Beast Chakra, so he didn't need to worry about his physique either.
"Don't worry, there's no problem."
Mabui could only nod seriously, and then raised her hand to form a seal.
"Heavenly Transfer Technique!"
