"According to the information provided by Black Zetsu, the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki is stationed at Yunlei Gorge all year round."
"But now it seems that there is obviously an error in the intelligence."
In the Kingdom of Thunder, in the canyon area ten kilometers away from Yunyin Village, Lei Luo stood on the top of the mountain, silently overlooking a tall attic in the valley, and said to himself in a neutral tone.
By using his perception ability, Lei Luo has determined that there is no one in Yunlei Gorge. Not only is the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki not here, there is not even a Cloud Ninja.
"Kumogakure probably received the news and hid the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki."
Konan glanced around at Uchiha Madara and the others, and seeing that no one was willing to speak, he took the initiative to chat with Lei Luo and expressed his analysis.
Although the blue plan only lasted less than a day from start to finish, it was as fast as thunder and as fast as the wind. However, the entire operation was not completely unresponsive.
At least, for Kumogakure Village, Takigakure Village and Kirigakure Village were attacked one after another. There is a high probability that the Fourth Raikage would not know these two important pieces of information.
After all, it is a common practice for ninja villages to insert spies into each other. Even if they are as close as a family, this kind of behavior cannot be stopped. Who makes everyone a ninja?
Based on the judgment that Lei Luo appeared in federal territory and the Seven-Tails Jinchuuriki was captured, it is reasonable for Kumogakure Village to react. The day of war has arrived, so naturally it is time to protect its own Jinchuuriki.
"Since it's hidden, let's go to Raikage and ask for it."
Uchiha Madara spoke calmly, and the meaning revealed in the sentence was as if the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki was just an insignificant item. If he and others asked for it from the Raikage, they would surely give it to him with both hands.
Hearing Madara's words, Itachi and Konan looked at each other, secretly smacking their lips. Is this the mentality of the strong?
Asking for Jinchuuriki from the enemy leader openly and in such a plain and natural way, as if it was no big deal.
This realm... is still somewhat difficult to understand.
"Let's go."
Lei Luo's answer was even more concise, just two words, and the aura of looking down on the world that he revealed, even more so than Madara, made Itachi and Konan heartbroken.
In the corner, Youxiang swallowed secretly. She thought that the trip to Kumogakure would be boring, but she didn't expect that there would be a chance to have a big meal. This was really... refreshing.
But just as Lei Luo and others were about to leave for Yunyin Village, a flash of orange light suddenly flashed from all directions, illuminating the night sky in an instant and forming a light shield at the top of Yunlei Gorge.
The coverage area of the photomask is extremely large, almost encompassing the entire Yunlei Gorge, with a radius of at least three to five hundred meters, and its surface is flashing with crystal patterns, similar to some kind of barrier.
Noticing this scene, Lei Luo's expression moved slightly. He glanced around and saw hundreds of cloud ninjas jumping out of nowhere and rushing to the positions around him and others in a blink of an eye, forming a surrounding net.
The entire canyon area, including the attic, the square below, and the top of the mountain above, are all covered with the figures of the Cloud Ninjas.
The leader has dark skin and sharp eyes. Under a white cloak, a body made of copper and iron is hidden. He is the Fourth Raikage.
'Strange, I didn't realize it just now. Did you use some secret technique to hide your whereabouts?'
The first thing that crossed Lei Luo's mind was this thought. Then he calmed down, looked at the Fourth Raikage who was standing on the top of the attic, and said expressionlessly:
"Yeyue Ai, where is the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki?"
Among the cloud ninjas who had ambushed here in advance, there was no sign of Kirabi. Lei Luo was too lazy to talk nonsense and simply went straight to the topic and asked the Fourth Raikage directly.
As for the extremely solemn atmosphere in the field, the hundreds of Yun Ninjas who were waiting in full formation were all ignored by Lei Luo. To him, these people could be killed with just a few clicks and were not worth mentioning.
Under Lei Luo's gaze, Ye Yuueai frowned and suddenly felt a heavy pressure shrouding her heart, but she did not avert her gaze and stared at the other person without fear.
After a while, Ye Yueyai spoke. Although his voice was somewhat hoarse, it contained an unyielding momentum. He shouted loudly:
"Leiluo! You want to create the Ten-Tails, you want to destroy the Federation, and you want to unify the ninja world. We can talk about these things, but I don't allow you to hurt Kirabi!"
It seems that Yeyue Ai, who has worked with Bing for many years, also knows a lot. Lei Luo touched his chin with interest and asked curiously:
"Since you know the Ten-Tails, you should know what will happen to the Jinchuuriki after they are captured..."
"What if I must 'hurt' Kirabi?"
Deliberately emphasizing the word "hurt", Lei Luo wanted to see how Yeyue Ai would react. Now that the situation was almost clear, it seemed worth looking forward to what Raikage would choose.
Perhaps aware of the teasing in Lei Luo's tone, Ye Yueyue lowered her head and remained silent for a moment, then raised her head again and looked directly at the past, saying in a loud and powerful voice:
"Then I, all the Kumo ninjas, will end it with you today!"
End it? What qualifications do you have to end it with me?
Glancing at Lei Ying's determined eyes, Lei Luo curled his lips disdainfully, crossed his arms over his chest, and said lazily:
"Yeyue Ai, I think you should have an idea of the current situation."
"Listen to my advice, surrender decisively and surrender to the Fire Country. You Yunyin may still be able to survive. Otherwise, the army will be everywhere and everyone will be destroyed. Don't blame me for not giving you a chance."
After a few words, Lei Luo expressed his attitude very clearly. He didn't mention what would happen to Kirabi in the middle, just because it was something he should consider. It had nothing to do with Raikage and Kumogakure, and it was not a bargaining chip.
Whether Yunyin Village surrenders or not, it doesn't matter to Lei Luo. If Yunyin didn't have much hatred towards him and had friendship in the past years, he would have launched a nuclear blast to clear the land.
Kirigakure can give a good example of what will happen to Kumogakure by then.
The only thing Lei Luo wanted to express was: You are not qualified to negotiate terms with me.
On the opposite side, Yeyue Ai's heart sank. Lei Luo was obviously too lazy to talk nonsense to him and only gave one choice:
To surrender or not to surrender.
Thanks to the existence of telephone lines, Ye Yue Ai had received the information about the Kingdom of Water not long ago. There is no doubt that Bing was defeated and the countdown to the demise of the Federation had begun.
As a Raikage, Yeyue Ai is one of the ten thousand people who does not want his village to be "nuclearized", so surrendering is not unacceptable. At least for the current Yunyin Village, this is the only option if they want to survive.
But there is a difference between surrendering, whether it is surrendering with dignity and occupying a place in the Kingdom of Fire in the future, or surrendering with humiliation, sitting back and watching his brother being killed, not daring to fire a shot and joining Lei Luo's command.
