I simultaneously traverse countless worlds

Mei Terumi, Nagato Uzumaki, and Orochimaru all agreed with this view. They knew that every major ninja village had its own trump cards. In addition to the strong ninja stationed in the village's stronghold, there were likely to be things like barrier techniques and forbidden ninjutsu. Even in the first three Shinobi World Wars, very few ninja villages used such a fierce attack tactic because they were worried that their elites would run straight into the opponent's killing move.

Of course, Yecang didn't feel anything. The reason why she and Li Mo successfully raided Sunagakure was that Sunagakure was too poor and never expected anyone to raid them. They killed the leader and elites as soon as they met, and it was a one-sided crushing defeat afterwards!

"Yes, so for this surprise attack, I plan to have Tsunade and I deal with the Hidden Cloud Village, Orochimaru, you take your men to the desert war zone to oversee things, Mei Terumi will be in charge of the main command, and Pakura, you take your men to clear out the Hidden Cloud Village's garrison ninja..."

Li Mo nodded in agreement with Tsunade's concerns, then adopted an attitude of using a dragon-slaying sword to kill a chicken, which made everyone present look at him with surprise.

When Tsunade was worried about the Hidden Cloud Village, she meant that a single Kage-level ninja would come to the Hidden Cloud Village to challenge them. But Li Mo was taking Tsunade with him, and no major ninja village could withstand that, not to mention that there were other Kage-level ninja and elite ninja troops attacking other Hidden Cloud ninja in other places!

"Aren't we considering the reactions of Konoha and Iwagakure? And what about the reactions of the three major powers?"

Unlike Orochimaru and Tsunade, who had no objections, Nagato raised his hand and asked his own question. He and Amegakure had been placed as pawns, and over the years, his strength had improved significantly. This was even due to Li Mo's intensive guidance, and two years ago, he quietly advanced to the level of a Kage-level shinobi.

It's no exaggeration to say that Nagato Uzumaki was a top-tier ninja in the ninja world at that time. However, under Li Mo's initial arrangement, Amegakure was still nominally ruled by "Hanzo the Salamander," who appeared as Hanzo's successor. Moreover, Amegakure had assigned more than half of the ninjas from the Ninja World Alliance to the village. With several years of propaganda and guidance, it can be said that Amegakure now obeys the Ninja World Alliance's orders without question.

In particular, when Amegakure and several smaller ninja villages were stationed together to defend the Rain Country's defense line, Amegakure controlled the high-ranking officials and elites of those smaller ninja villages. In addition, the Ninja Alliance sold a large amount of goods to the Rain Country every year and also emigrated the civilians of the Rain Country. It is said that the entire Rain Country is secretly controlled by the Ninja Alliance. They could turn against the Ninja Alliance at a moment's notice. However, without Li Mo's order, it has not yet erupted.

As for Konoha and Iwagakure, they didn't realize the problem with Amegakure. They simply didn't believe that the Rain Defense Line could withstand the Shinobi Alliance's attack. They saw it more as a tool to buy time and, incidentally, to weaken a few smaller ninja villages.

"Don't worry, Nagato, your mission is equally important. If we're planning for the second phase, the allied forces of the Land of Rain and the small ninja villages should mobilize their forces!"

Faced with Nagato's question, Li Mo agreed with his insightful suggestion, but he didn't mention the three major powers at all. Instead, he pointed to the three defense lines that bordered the Shinobi World Alliance by land and said meaningfully to Nagato.

Everyone present was intelligent. Even Ye Cang, who had already experienced life, immediately understood Li Mo's hidden meaning when he looked at the defensive line that Li Mo pointed to, which represented the Land of Fire, the Land of Earth, and the Land of Rain. If the Cloud Village and the Land of Lightning were attacked, the Leaf Village and the Rock Village would likely take action, and even the two great nations would be affected. But what if the border defense line were attacked by the Shinobi Alliance at this time?

Even Yekura, who usually had little interest in politics, thought about the usual behavior of those daimyo and nobles and knew that the Land of Fire and the Land of Earth probably had no interest in rescuing the Land of Lightning and the Hidden Cloud Village. Ensuring their own safety was their top priority. Even if the Hidden Leaf Village and the Hidden Stone Village wanted to provide support, it would be easier if they formed a multi-party alliance to send troops. However, if a single major ninja village sent troops to reinforce the Land of Lightning and the Hidden Cloud Village, it would probably be like handing food to the Ninja World Alliance.

Moreover, Li Mo's demand for Nagato to launch the second phase, coupled with Orochimaru, Tsunade, and others who had some understanding of the situation in the Land of Rain and Amegakure, led them to believe that the ninja forces stationed at the border defenses of Konoha and Iwagakure were in dire straits. If the border ninja forces of these two major ninja villages were severely damaged or completely annihilated, Konoha and Iwagakure would likely be too busy to rescue Kumogakure; they would be lucky if they could even find a way to salvage the situation.

As Li Mo explained, Nagato, Orochimaru, Tsunade, Mei Terumi, and Pakura all had no more questions. In addition, the Shinobi Alliance was indeed in a position of absolute advantage over the Allied forces, making this war inevitable!

Chapter 69 Chaos and Assault

With Li Mo's order issued, the Ninja Alliance's ninja army began mobilization. Ninja soldiers who were on leave were quickly recalled, the ninja army in the desert war zone began reconnaissance activities, and the naval fleet set sail for the Land of Fire and the Land of Lightning.

Undoubtedly, the spies that the allied forces had placed within the Ninja Alliance had discovered the Ninja Alliance's actions. Unaware that they had been deliberately let go, the spies immediately used special means to transmit what they had seen to all parties. The three great nations and the three great ninja villages received the news immediately, and then the entire allied forces were alarmed, with a large number of ninjas quickly assembled.

Not only did the three major ninja villages take the initiative to order their border ninja troops to be on guard, but they also began to gather their idle ninjas to form ninja armies. Even the smaller ninja villages were required to gather their ninjas as soon as possible. The cannon fodder troops of the three major countries and the smaller countries were mobilized a little later, which was expected to take a lot of time.

After all, even the Shinobi World Alliance would need a considerable amount of time to complete its full mobilization, let alone a coalition with multiple parties issuing orders.

Even though the allied forces also had war response plans, the generally peaceful environment of several years made many people complacent at the beginning. It wasn't that Li Mo was unwilling to accept it; there were plenty of people who wanted to defect to the Ninja World Alliance.

Without going into too much detail, do you really think that none of the daimyo, nobles, ninja villages, or even merchants who engage in smuggling trade with the Ninja World Alliance can see the Ninja World Alliance's strength and want to join them? It's just that Li Mo's acceptance standards are very high right now. As for those high-ranking ninja village officials, nobles, and daimyo, there are very few people he values. The Hyuga and Yamanaka families are only accepting because of Hinata Hyuga and Ino Yamanaka.

As for the others, Li Mo reviewed their records. Apart from a very few who hadn't committed any crimes, the vast majority of daimyo and nobles had done all sorts of despicable things. Treating human life like dirt was a trivial matter. Besides relying on their military strength and the ninjas of their villages, they could be said to have wantonly exploited the common people under their command. Otherwise, given the impact of the Ninja World War, various bandits in the Ninja World wouldn't have appeared so frequently.

Moreover, Li Mo had already targeted the daimyo and nobles of the Land of Rainbows, the Land of the Sea, the Land of Water, and the Land of Wind for elimination. Those who were spared were either decoys or people with few crimes. Naturally, he would not treat the daimyo and nobles of other countries differently. Even if ninjas and merchants from the allied camp wanted to join him, Li Mo would screen them carefully and would never rashly recruit or accept traitors.

No one in the allied forces knew Li Mo's thoughts. They were currently mobilizing the ninja army and other armed forces in a frantic manner. However, when it came to what to do next, the various factions in the allied forces had different opinions. In any case, no one would use their forces arbitrarily when the situation was still uncertain.

However, the people of Kumogakure don't need to worry so much, because Li Mo has already made Kumogakure his primary target. When the Fourth Raikage received the news and raised the alert level of the entire Kumogakure, the first wave of attacks against Kumogakure had already begun!

………………

Boom——————! ! !

With a loud bang, an unremarkable building in the Cloud Village was blown to pieces. However, all the high-ranking members of the Cloud Village who actually knew about the building looked extremely grim.

The reason is very simple: that building is the hidden location of the power core of a top-secret weapon of the Cloud Village. Judging from the current situation, the dozen or so Chakra Cannons that the Cloud Village spent a huge amount of money to develop are no longer able to play their expected role in air defense and countering potential hostile ninja forces. What makes the Cloud Village leaders uneasy is that the Chakra Cannons are the Cloud Village's secret weapon. Who leaked it, leading to the Shinobi Alliance's sabotage operation?

Compared to the high-ranking officials of Kumogakure, the Kumogakure ninjas, who had just been gathered by the village's emergency signal, heard continuous explosions. The violent roars and sounds of fighting coming from important areas such as the Kumogakure broadcasting building, warehouse, and hospital immediately plunged them into a brutal battle!

"Everyone on alert! There's an infiltrated spy causing trouble... Ah!"

In front of the Raikage Building, a Cloud Ninja Special Jonin who had been hastily assembled was about to give orders to the dozen or so Cloud Ninja in front of him when a Shadow Soldier leaped out from behind him and stabbed him in the back with a Shadow Blade, causing him to scream in agony.

Before the dozen or so Cloud Ninjas could unleash their ninjutsu and charge forward, five or six Shadow Soldiers leaped out from their shadows. These ruthless Shadow Soldiers then unleashed a massacre. Apart from two Cloud Ninjas who were furthest away and of decent strength and managed to escape, five squads of Cloud Ninjas were instantly wiped out. They were either killed on the spot by Shadow Blades or shot to death at the entrance by cross-shaped darts and kunai.

Undoubtedly, with such an incident occurring at the entrance of the Raikage Building, the Kumogakure Anbu, who were truly responsible for the building's security, couldn't sit still. Two Anbu squads quickly leaped out of the windows on the second and first floors and instantly witnessed several instantaneous low-level Lightning Release and Wind Release ninjutsu that tore the three Shadow Soldiers apart and merged them into their shadows. The remaining three Shadow Soldiers were then entangled by several Kumogakure Anbu members skilled in ninjutsu and taijutsu. Subsequently, a ninja who knew barrier techniques cast a spell to trap them in place.

In less than a minute, the Shadow Soldier squad, having lost its hidden advantage, was defeated, even injuring two Cloud Ninja ANBU. However, all the Cloud Ninja ANBU, including the two squad leaders, were solemn. They could all be considered elite Cloud Ninja, so it was not surprising that they could gain the upper hand against that strange enemy. But the unusually noisy scene in Cloud Ninja Village now proved that the situation was not good.

Without the Fourth Raikage's orders, the Anbu ninja stationed at the Raikage Building could only arrange for people to clean up the scene, while gathering the surrounding Cloud Ninja to try to eliminate the Shadow Soldiers who could occasionally leap out from the shadows to launch surprise attacks.

"Lord Raikage! The reconnaissance team has spotted five giant airships, less than ten kilometers from the village!"

As the Fourth Raikage, his face dark, hurriedly issued orders while gazing at the battle raging across Kumogakure, Mabui, serving as the Raikage's secretary, anxiously reported on the true threat posed by the enemy: the airship force that had once wiped out Sunagakure.

"Damn the Shinobi Alliance, do you really think we can't do anything to you? Mabui, tell Killer Bee to join me in attacking and stop the enemy's airship force..."

Upon hearing Mabui's words, the hot-tempered Fourth Raikage could no longer contain himself and immediately gave his secretary an order to prepare to work together with the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki to stop the enemy's airship squadron that was intended to raid Kumogakure.

"Raikage-sama?!"

Compared to the Fourth Raikage, who was ready to personally take action at the slightest disagreement, Mabui, the Raikage's secretary, was somewhat helpless. She looked at her Raikage with some doubt and asked again if her boss was planning to dump things on her again.

"Mabuyi, you, Tutai, and Darui will be in charge of the battles within the village!"

At this moment, the Fourth Raikage seemed to have a sudden epiphany. He directly entrusted the command of the internal operations of the Hidden Cloud Village to the right person. He glared fiercely at the Hidden Cloud Village, which was already engulfed in war, and made a very decisive battle plan without hesitation: "As for me, I will work with Killer Bee to intercept the Shinobi World Alliance's airship force. Otherwise, if they rush into the village, the losses will be too great!"

The Fourth Raikage knew, of course, that the airship squadron he and Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, faced would definitely be elite troops and powerful individuals deployed by the enemy. Compared to the shadow monsters that suddenly appeared inside the Hidden Cloud Village, they were certainly a much more troublesome enemy. Nevertheless, he still took the initiative to fight against this formidable foe.

As a village known for its martial arts prowess, the Raikage may be short-tempered or ruthless in his methods, but he would never be weak or incompetent in the face of a powerful enemy. Moreover, in the original Naruto storyline, the Fourth Raikage was the kind of brute who would rather fight than talk nonsense. Now that the Kumogakure village has been designated as the first target of the Ninja Alliance, he will not hesitate to use his fists to demonstrate his strength.

Seeing that the Fourth Raikage had made a decision, Mabui opened his mouth but said nothing more. He bowed respectfully and quickly began to relay the orders. Then, he watched as the Fourth Raikage disappeared from his spot, preparing to intercept the enemy's airship squadron!

……

"ink?!"

A few minutes later, on the observation deck of the flagship of the airship squadron that had been exposed from its disguise, Tsunade, now dressed in combat attire and looking both beautiful and heroic, watched the Eight-Tails in its tailed beast form unleash its Tailed Beast Cannon. She raised an eyebrow and asked her man a question.

The Tailed Beast Cannon of the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki was clearly not something an ordinary strong person could withstand. Apart from Li Mo and Tsunade, it would probably take the combined efforts of the remaining Kage-level shinobi of the airship squadron to block this attack. Li Mo, however, was clearly not concerned about the Eight-Tails. He looked up at the Eight-Tails that had already condensed its Tailed Beast Cannon, snapped his fingers lightly, and then ignored the attack.

A few blinks later, Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki in his Eight-Tails form, had just unleashed his Tailed Beast Cannon when, before it even hit the airship squadron, it was swallowed up by a gaping hole. In the next instant, the Tailed Beast Cannon shot out from another newly opened spatial hole, directly smearing the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki's face. Killer Bee, who had shown no mercy, immediately experienced the power of his own attack.

This almost sent Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, who was completely unprepared, flying. Fortunately, the Eight-Tails is ranked second among the Tailed Beasts, and Killer Bee's synergy with the Eight-Tails Gyūki is exceptional. He let out a scream and quickly recovered from his wounds. If a powerful opponent had attacked at this moment, they would have been able to inflict considerable damage on Killer Bee in his Tailed Beast form.

However, Li Mo had no intention of making another move. Looking at Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki who was recovering from his tailed beast transformation, and the Fourth Raikage, he turned to Tsunade, who looked eager to try, nodded slightly, and then spoke directly:

"Tsunade, why don't you have some fun with the Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki?"

Chapter 70 The Fourth Raikage's Resolute Action (Wishing everyone a happy National Day holiday!)

"Killer Bee! How are you?!"

At the same time, the Fourth Raikage, who had arrived at his brother's side, watched as the Eight-Tails, which had almost blown his head off, was recovering. He also looked warily at the airship squadron that had used some unknown method to deflect the Tailed Beast Ball, and shouted loudly to Killer Bee.

"Big brother, I'm alright... Be careful!!!"

Upon hearing the voice of his elder brother, the Fourth Raikage A, Killer Bee, who had fully transformed into a tailed beast and recovered from the concussion he had suffered from taking a Tailed Beast Ball, was telling the Fourth Raikage that he was alright when a sudden ominous sign of danger made him shout a warning.

Chichi~!

When the Fourth Raikage reacted and suddenly unleashed his ninjutsu, his body surrounded by lightning, dense trees sprouted directly from the ground, centered on him and Killer Bee in his fully transformed tailed beast form, instantly turning this large area into a forest.

Wood Release: Advent of a World of Trees!

As Tsunade successfully awakened the Wood Release bloodline limit, it was completely different from the situation of an ordinary Wood Release bloodline limit ninja who could at most use the Wood Release: Three Rooms and One Hall Technique (such as a certain Wood Release ninja named Yamato). By awakening the Sage Body and fusing the extraordinary power of the Sun Seed, Tsunade raised the power of her awakened Wood Release bloodline limit to a level second only to her grandfather, Hashirama Senju.

The most direct scenario is that Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki who has fully transformed into a tailed beast, was caught off guard and entangled by numerous trees and vines. Looking at the Eight-Tails Gyūki, which resembles a bull-headed octopus monster from a tokusatsu movie, he was directly surrounded by trees and vines generated by [Wood Release]. No matter how much Killer Bee struggled in his Eight-Tails Gyūki form, once the [Wood Release] technique of absorbing the tailed beast's chakra was unleashed, the Eight-Tails Gyūki was completely unable to resist and could only struggle desperately.

If it were Hashirama Senju, his Wood Release would have turned all nine tailed beasts into pets. Even the most arrogant Nine-Tails was reduced to a fox-dog by a bunch of giant wooden golems. However, Tsunade's Wood Release was clearly still a bit lacking. When she used the Advent of a World of Trees technique, she couldn't defeat the fully transformed Eight-Tails, Gyūki, in one go. Even the Fourth Raikage had to use his full power of Thunder God Armor to put up a fight.

However, in the areas affected by the Wood Release: Advent of the World of Trees technique, the Cloud Ninja who were ordered by Tsuchikage to prepare to support their Raikage were immediately bound by trees and vines, and the surviving Cloud Ninja were forced to retreat!

"This...this is Wood Release?!"

"how is this possible?"

"Could it be Konoha Village? But the Wood Release bloodline limit has been lost!"...

Upon seeing the vast expanse of giant trees and vines before them, the surviving Cloud Ninja were in a state of chaos. They stared helplessly at the tree-bound domain, discussing in bewilderment, wondering what was going on.

As one of the two great masters who ushered in the era of the ninja village, Hashirama Senju's signature ninjutsu was the Wood Release bloodline limit ninjutsu. You may not know how many bloodline limits and secret techniques there are in the entire ninja world, but Wood Release is definitely the most famous bloodline limit. Even when Konoha Village was conducting experiments to reproduce Wood Release, they did not give up despite the deaths of so many people, because of the illustrious reputation left by Hashirama Senju.

The reason why Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha were able to join forces was because he defeated Madara Uchiha with Wood Release. Later, he founded Konoha and helped establish the Land of Fire. It can be said that Wood Release is the absolute symbol of orthodoxy in Konoha, not to mention that Hashirama Senju swept across the ninja world with Wood Release.

Even the four major ninja villages, except for Konoha, highly valued Wood Release because they had been severely beaten by Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha. Kumogakure was no exception. When Kumogakure was first established, the First Raikage and a group of strong Kumogakure ninja were defeated by Hashirama Senju. Otherwise, why would the other four major ninja villages and a group of smaller ninja villages obey Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha while they were still alive? The reason was absolute military support.

After losing the support of two powerful figures, Konoha began to provoke Konoha from the Kumogakure and other ninja villages. This eventually led to the First Shinobi World War. Despite their defeat, the Kumogakure did not lose faith because they saw that Konoha was no longer invincible. From the Raikage down to the ordinary Kumogakure ninjas, everyone dreamed that one day the Kumogakure would defeat Konoha and take the top spot among the Five Great Shinobi Villages.

Now, the Cloud Village ninjas are witnessing the reappearance of the Wood Release that once allowed Konoha to sweep across the ninja world. Even the elite Cloud Village Jonin leading the team is trembling with fear and wondering what is going on, why Konoha's Wood Release bloodline limit has reappeared, and why it is attacking Cloud Village.

However, before the surviving Cloud Ninjas could react, the elite ninjas of the Ninja Alliance, who had already jumped off the airship, rushed in. More than ten Cloud Ninjas were instantly killed by ninjutsu before they realized that the enemy had already closed in.

"Enemy? Return the attack... Ah!"

Upon seeing the ninja soldiers of the Shinobi World Alliance clad in chakra armor, the Cloud Ninja elite Jonin, who had just given the order, was immediately surrounded and attacked by three other elite Jonin of the Shinobi World Alliance. Facing the combined attack of three elite Jonin who were superior in strength and equipment and worked in perfect harmony, the Cloud Ninja elite Jonin failed to deliver a thrilling counterattack, managing only to inflict minor injuries on his opponents before being beheaded by the three elite Jonin, dying a humiliating death in this place.

When the elite Cloud Ninja who led the team died, the remaining dozens of Cloud Ninja were scattered. More than half of them had been hanging in the Tree World before, and now that they were weaker and outnumbered, they would soon be either killed or captured!

"Aha!!!"

On the other side, within that [Tree World], the Fourth Raikage was attacking frantically with bloodshot eyes. His body was wrapped in lightning, and he dared not stay in one place. He charged forward at high speed without any rules, tearing apart the trees and vines that blocked his way.

It must be said that compared to ordinary Cloud Ninja who lose their fighting ability as soon as they are entangled by the [Tree World], the Fourth Raikage A and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee are both Kage-level powerhouses who can fight and withstand attacks. One of them did not hesitate to use the ninjutsu of the [Raiden Armor] to try to buy time, while the other struggled desperately inside the [Tree World], trying to resist the powerful binding and chakra absorption. For a while, he actually managed to hold on outside the range of the [Wood Release: Advent of Tree World] ninjutsu.

Unfortunately, compared to Tsunade, who is at the Kage level, the two peak Kage-level powerhouses are still much weaker. Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, was already unable to hold on. He let out a mournful cry and tried his best to open a passage so that the Fourth Raikage could escape!

"Fourth Raikage, surrender!"

When the Fourth Raikage, A, discovered that the Eight-Tails, Gyūki, was gradually shrinking, and his brother, Killer Bee, was desperately trying to break out of the [World of Trees], he was knocked back by a giant wooden golem and knocked unconscious, thus exiting his full Tailed Beast form. In his anger, he heard a very pleasant female voice, and when he looked up, he saw the blonde beauty Tsunade, dressed in battle attire, yet still exuding charm and allure.

"You are... Tsunade, one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha?!"

Faced with the elements of "Wood Release" and "blonde female ninja," the Fourth Raikage, A, finally connected the name of the person most closely related to him in his mind. He then linked the blonde beauty, who had changed considerably but was even more beautiful and outstanding, with the legendary Sannin of Konoha in his memories, and directly questioned her.

"That's right, Fourth Raikage A, but I'm no longer a member of Konoha Village. I'm now the head of the medical department of the Shinobi World Alliance, here to arrest you and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki!"

When questioned by the Fourth Raikage, A, Tsunade calmly admitted her identity, but made it clear that she was no longer a member of Konoha but of the Shinobi Alliance. Looking at the defeated Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Killer Bee, and the exhausted Fourth Raikage, A, she said in a very flat tone, "Then, if you choose to lead Kumogakure to surrender, the Shinobi Alliance will consider accepting your surrender..."

At this point, Tsunade naturally knew that the probability of persuading the other side to surrender was very low. After all, even the two god-like figures, Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, and the Kage of the other four great ninja villages had no intention of surrendering. The Shinobi Alliance killed the Fourth Kazekage and wiped out all the high-ranking officials when they took over Sunagakure. Did they really think they could make the Fourth Raikage surrender with just a few words?

If it were that easy, Li Mo wouldn't have needed Mei Terumi and Pakura to take down Kirigakure and Sunagakure, and even send the Third Mizukage, the Fourth Kazekage, and a bunch of old fogies to their deaths. The reason is that as the Kage of a major ninja village, you can see the other side defeated or sign a peace treaty. But expecting the Kage of the five major ninja villages to lead their villages to surrender to the enemy is less likely than hoping that the five major ninja villages will stop fighting and live in peace. The latter is a tiny bit more likely to happen in the ninja world.

After all, as the Kage of a major ninja village, he might not be the strongest in terms of strength. But looking at the three Shinobi World Wars, the Kage of the five major ninja villages only died in battle and did not surrender. The previous Third Raikage is the most obvious example. Now, facing the persuasion of one of the legendary Sannin of Konoha and an important figure in the Shinobi Alliance, the Fourth Raikage would not even consider it.

Upon hearing Tsunade's words of persuasion, the Fourth Raikage took a step forward with a ferocious expression, his body crackling with lightning, giving him a Super Saiyan-like appearance reminiscent of the Dragon Ball movies. However, as he unleashed his full power, he declared to Tsunade his status as Raikage:

"Tsunade, don't underestimate me as the Fourth Raikage!"
