Chapter 218 The Third Raikage: This is slander

In fact, the person who orchestrated Tobirama Senju's death was... the Third Raikage.

The conclusion about the light screen caused quite a stir.

Many people in the Hidden Cloud Village cursed loudly, believing that the light screen was utter nonsense.

As is widely known, Tobirama was killed by the Kinkaku (Golden Horn) forces of Kumogakure. The Second Raikage also perished in this battle. Kumogakure's explanation was that the Kinkaku and Ginkaku killed the Second Raikage.

Because of the Second Raikage's death, Kumogakure could easily shift the blame. That's right, Kinkaku and Ginkaku were manipulated by the Third Raikage and subsequently silenced. The biggest winner in this whole affair was the Third Raikage.

As for the Third Raikage's motives, they're not complicated. The Fourth Raikage is the Third Raikage's son, but the Third Raikage isn't the Second Raikage's son. Succession follows the father-to-son rule, and the Second Raikage had a son, right? So, who will become the Third Raikage?

Next, the light screen began its analysis.

There are far too many elite Jonin like the Golden Horn Army.

Furthermore, it is highly unusual that the strength of the Cloud Village was not significantly reduced after the Golden Horn Army was wiped out.

So, there is only one answer.

The Third Raikage had planned it all out, with the Kazekage, Tsuchikage, and Mizukage secretly supporting him.

Therefore, everything becomes quite simple.

The Second Raikage was sidelined but refused to hand over the position to the Third Raikage, which made the Third Raikage want to kill him.

When the Second Raikage sensed the danger, he invited the Second Hokage to help him. After learning of this, the Third Raikage secretly contacted the Tsuchikage, Kazekage, and Mizukage.

Seeing this as an opportunity to eliminate the Second Hokage, the Sand Village, Iwagakure, and Kirigakure secretly dispatched elite Jonin to cooperate with the Third Raikage's plan.

In the end, everything went according to the Third Raikage's plan.

As long as there's no way to prove anything with the dead, Konoha won't be able to do anything to Kumogakure.

Even if Kinkaku and Ginkaku don't die, they'll definitely be severely wounded, making it easy for the Third Raikage to finish them off. If both Kinkaku and Ginkaku were dead, that would be even better.

After the Third Hokage became stronger, Konoha and Kumogakure became bitter enemies, frequently engaging in battle, which culminated in the Second and Third Shinobi World Wars. Before the Fourth Shinobi World War, the Fourth Raikage sought Tsunade's help, but Tsunade showed him no kindness whatsoever.
Tsunade: How dare the people of Kumogakure come to Konoha seeking help?

The Second Raikage made a foolish mistake. If he had targeted the Kazekage, Tsuchikage, or Mizukage, the Third Raikage might have hesitated. Instead, he chose the Second Hokage, whom all the other ninja villages wanted to kill. As a result, the Third Raikage's plan gained the support of the other ninja villages.

With both Golden Horn and Silver Horn dead, everything came to a perfect end.

The Third Raikage not only defeated the Second Raikage, but also weakened the power of Konoha, Sunagakure, Iwagakure, and Kirigakure.

To be honest, the argument on the screen was quite reasonable and well-founded.

The Third Raikage, upon hearing this, was no longer calm: "This is slander against me!"

Next, the Third Raikage gave an explanation in the group chat.

During the First Shinobi World War, the four great ninja villages launched an attack on Konoha. Kumogakure mobilized thousands of ninjas, but they were stopped by Tobirama and suffered a minor defeat on the battlefield. Afterwards, a division arose within the village. The Second Raikage wanted to stop the war and choose to negotiate with Konoha, but the brothers Kinkaku and Ginkaku were too willful and unwilling to accept that Kumogakure had ended up in a crushing defeat.

The rest is self-explanatory. During the alliance ceremony between the Second Raikage and the Second Hokage, Kinkaku and Ginkaku used the Six Paths Tools and the Nine-Tails' chakra to cruelly kill the Second Raikage and severely injure the Second Hokage.

The Third Raikage's plot led to the death of the Second Raikage, and he himself was ultimately killed by a plot orchestrated by Iwagakure.

Yunyin.

The Fourth Raikage's face was grim; his father's death was already suspicious.

The idea that one could fight against ten thousand and only die from exhaustion after several days of battle is simply unbelievable.

There is only one explanation: it's a conspiracy by Iwagakure.

First of all, the fact that there are tens of thousands of ninjas is intriguing.

Although Iwagakure is a major ninja village, how many ninjas does it actually have?
Furthermore, tens of thousands of Jonin and tens of thousands of Genin are completely different concepts.

Under normal circumstances, if Iwagakure mobilizes tens of thousands of ninjas, Kumogakure should also mobilize a similar number.

So, his wife fought against tens of thousands of Iwa ninja all by herself to cover her comrades' retreat.

The battle lasted quite a while, but the Cloud Village didn't have time to provide support.

Judging from the course of the battle, the tens of thousands of Iwa ninja were mostly genin, with very few jonin or chunin.

Given the Tsuchikage's shrewdness, is it worthwhile to use tens of thousands of ninjas to surround and kill the Third Raikage?

It's important to understand that assembling tens of thousands of people takes time and requires careful planning in terms of deployment and task allocation. Additionally, it requires someone to command them.

After all, with the strength of the Third Raikage, a single outburst would terrify tens of thousands of genin!
Therefore, all signs indicate that Iwagakure plotted to kill his father using a human wave tactic.

Although his father killed many Iwa ninja, the Tsuchikage probably didn't take it seriously.

Judging from the results, Iwagakure achieved its goal; if not more profit, at least it didn't lose money.

The infighting and backstabbing within ninja villages, and the mutual scheming between them, is the cruel reality of the ninja world.

Konoha is just a microcosm of the ninja world.

Although the Konoha F4 are scheming and despicable, how much better are the Kage from other villages?

Even the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, had quite a few 'outrageous' moves.

The group chat remained silent.

It took a while before someone broke the silence.

So, everything on the light screen is real?
The Second Hokage, the Second Raikage, the Third Raikage... all died in a conspiracy?
I think the light screen wasn't lying this time.

If the Second Raikage hadn't died, the Third Raikage wouldn't have been the 'strongest Raikage'.

The claim that he's the strongest Hokage is just some shameless self-proclaimed boast, but the claim that he's the strongest Raikage is definitely true!

Logically speaking, Konoha lost a Hokage, but Kumogakure lost many elite Jonin. Kumogakure's strength should have greatly decreased, but that's not the case. This is enough to explain something.

The Third Raikage wasn't stupid. He fought against tens of thousands of Iwa ninja to cover his comrades, which was one thing, but he died from exhaustion. This raises a question: why didn't he try to escape? Having achieved his goal of covering his comrades, he could have easily escaped. So, there's only one answer: he couldn't escape, and thus, he took a desperate gamble, hoping for a sliver of hope.

...]

Some things cannot withstand scrutiny.

Upon closer examination, one can sense that there is a conspiracy behind it.

This is still the major ninja village; life is much harder in the smaller ninja villages.

For many people, simply surviving requires an immense effort.

It's no exaggeration to say that some people's values ​​have been turned upside down.

Some people say they don't believe what the light screen says, that it's all nonsense, but deep down they're half-believing and half-doubting.

Some people are even claiming that the light screen is a provocation, trying to trigger the Fourth Shinobi World War.

If we believe what's said on the screen, the Second Hokage died at the hands of the Third Raikage, and the Kazekage, Tsuchikage, and Mizukage were all accomplices.

Of course, it's not the current version of the film.

However, the son should pay for the father's debts, so Konoha's war against Kumogakure is now justified!

The Third Raikage was killed by the Tsuchikage's plot, and the Fourth Raikage could avenge his father. Thus, Kumogakure declared war on Iwagakure.

With three of the five great ninja villages involved in the war, how could Sunagakure and Kirigakure possibly stand idly by?

With the five major ninja villages going to war, some smaller ninja villages will inevitably be drawn in, and it wouldn't be surprising if a few smaller ninja villages were wiped out.

Furthermore, ordinary people also suffer in ninja wars.

Therefore, for the sake of peace in the ninja world, it is necessary for the Kage of the five great ninja villages to sit down and have a proper talk.

Yunyin Village.

The Fourth Raikage smashed his fist into the desk, and then a hole was blasted through the wall.

Lightning Release chakra appeared on the Fourth Raikage.

At this moment, the Fourth Raikage really wanted to declare war on Iwagakure, but village leaders immediately came to stop him and told him not to act rashly.

The biggest enemy right now is still Konoha, and it would be unwise to start a war against Iwagakure.

Moreover, the current Kumogakure no longer has a strong ninja like the Third Raikage.

The Fourth Raikage was still young, and his strength was far from reaching the level of his father.

I guess his only advantage over his father is speed.

Even if I train for another 10 years, I probably still won't be able to compare.

Unlike the strongest Hokage in Konoha, the Third Raikage truly deserves the title of the strongest Raikage.

In their youth, the Third Raikage fought the Eight-Tails one-on-one, but the battle ended in a draw.

In his later years, the Third Raikage was able to fight against thousands of men single-handedly, demonstrating unparalleled bravery.

The Third Raikage's attacks are hailed as the strongest spear, while his lightning shield is considered the strongest shield. His Hell Thrust - Four-Piercing Hand technique is powerful, and his lightning shield is not afraid of Wind Release techniques.

You should know that Wind Kree.

However, even the Rasenshuriken couldn't break through the Third Raikage's defense.

Of course, Naruto had only barely mastered the Rasengan and hadn't yet developed the Rasenshuriken.

However, as the method for training the Rasengan was revealed on the screen, many ninjas in the ninja world learned how to use the Rasengan.

As for the Spiral Shuriken, the light screen also revealed some clues, which can be said to have provided some ideas.

Therefore, some people in the ninja world today have mastered the Rasenshuriken.

Given the strength of Iwagakure and the cunning of Onoki, it would be unwise for Kumogakure to declare war on them now.

After calming down, the Fourth Raikage, though unwilling, had no choice but to give up for the time being.

As the village's shadow, one must be responsible for the village.

Yunyin has worked hard to get to where it is today, and we can't let him ruin it.

In fact, stabilizing the village is the most urgent task.

After all, according to what was said on the light screen, the Second Raikage was killed by the Third Raikage.

The Second Raikage's family exists and is quite influential in the village.

If not handled properly, internal strife in the village is inevitable.

……

The peace of the ninja world seems to be in grave danger.

Orochimaru was also watching the light screen.

Orochimaru was also quite surprised by what was said on the screen.

Even Orochimaru never imagined that the deaths of the Second Hokage and the Second Raikage were orchestrated by the Third Raikage, but after analyzing the situation, he felt that the possibility was quite high.

He used to admire the Second Hokage.

But now, he finds it difficult to admire Tobirama Senju.

When Tobirama was still a Hokage's bodyguard, he offended all four Kage with a single sentence, and after becoming Hokage, he became arrogant and thought he was too clever for his own good.

"It has to be said that none of those who can become Kage are simple!" Orochimaru thought to himself, narrowing his eyes.

That Second Raikage, he's been sidelined? That's ridiculous!

Orochimaru largely believed what was said on the screen.

Next, Konoha, Kumogakure, and Iwagakure might go to war.

The Fourth Shinobi World War?

Orochimaru frowned, thinking that Jiraiya was the current Hokage.

Could you lend Jiraiya a little help?

Orochimaru was considering it.

Furthermore, how many more times will the light screen appear? What else will it reveal in the future?
What if his secrets are all revealed...

Some plans seem to need to be expedited.

Not far away, Kabuto was studying the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

Orochimaru taught Kabuto some forbidden techniques from Konoha.

Since the light screen says that Kabuto is a genius who surpasses Sasori of the Red Sand, Orochimaru is willing to nurture him. As for how far Kabuto can grow, it's hard to say.

Kabuto was his capable subordinate, so he still hoped that Kabuto's strength would improve.

The ninja world is not truly peaceful to begin with, and the Fourth Shinobi World War will break out sooner or later.

With the appearance of the light screen, the ninja world became even more mysterious, and even Orochimaru couldn't see it clearly.

Therefore, the Fourth Shinobi World War could break out at any time.

As for Konoha, being called the protagonist by the light screen, it is bound to be the target of everyone's criticism.

For Konoha, being besieged was not a one-off event.

Neither Sunagakure, Iwagakure, Kirigakure, nor Kumogakure would want Sasuke and Naruto to grow up!
In addition, some small ninja villages are also causing trouble.

Among them, Amegakure, which was controlled by the Akatsuki organization, was considered to be in the top tier of strength among the small ninja villages.

However, the screen said that Sasuke and Naruto are twins of destiny.

The Sage of Six Paths is secretly protecting Sasuke and Naruto.

If Naruto and Sasuke cannot grow up, who will deal with the Otsutsuki clan if they appear in the future?

If we can just sit back and watch Sasuke and Naruto grow, Konoha will take off.

……

"Boom~"

Tsunade slammed her foot down, creating a large crater in the ground.

Silently, she quickly moved away.

It's clear that Tsunade is very angry.

After all, Tobirama was her second grandfather, yet he was outmaneuvered by the Third Raikage.

Tsunade also had her own judgment.

She hadn't thought about it in detail before, but after hearing about the light screen, she thought about it more carefully and realized that her second grandfather was probably really tricked by the Third Raikage.

The evidence on the light screen is logical and convincing, so why doesn't Tsunade believe it?
Furthermore, the Third Raikage was the biggest beneficiary.

The Second Raikage didn't die suddenly; the Third Raikage is probably the Second Raikage's son!

But the Third Raikage is long dead, so there's no way to seek revenge against him.

Considering that the Third Raikage's son was still alive, and that he was now the Fourth Raikage, Tsunade decided to find an opportunity to beat up the Fourth Raikage.

In addition, Tsunade is also considering whether or not to return to Konoha.

In the event that Konoha were to wage war against Kumogakure, she would have to do her part.

In the group chat, the Third Raikage was still trying to explain, saying that he didn't design the Second Hokage.

As for being tricked by the Tsuchikage, the Third Raikage was furious.

But if Kumogakure were to wage war against Iwagakure, the Third Raikage would be in a dilemma.

He hoped that Kumogakure would defeat Iwagakure, ideally with a great victory, but that was difficult.

Moreover, the greatest enemy has always been Konoha.

If Kumogakure and Iwagakure trade blows, Konoha will win without lifting a finger.

We can't let Konoha get off so cheaply!

However, there are some things that cannot be said publicly in the group.

Fortunately, there are still some Cloud Ninjas alive in the group, so we can chat privately.

Just then, the image on the screen suddenly changed.

The moment I saw the art style change, I immediately thought of Boruto.

This made the Third Raikage frown.

First, there's Konoha during the era of the Seventh Hokage, Naruto Uzumaki.

It just so happens to be Family Day.

Sasuke planned to show some concern for his daughter and try to improve their father-daughter relationship.

So, everyday life?

What's the point?
The Third Raikage found it boring.

But it's boring without watching the light screen, so let's kill some time!
However, there are also people who enjoy watching it, such as Fugaku, Mikoto, and Itachi.
