Bai Yu had just finished speaking.

"Give."

"Hey!"

Two roasted rabbit legs were stretched out in front of him, one on the left and one on the right.

Kushina and Chiho were both taken aback, then exchanged a glance.

Chiho gave Kushina her classic 'fake smile'.

There's a murderous aura about him!

Bai Yu frowned, sensing that something was wrong.

Kushina smiled kindly, staring intently at Shiraha.

Chiho and Kushina simply held the rabbit leg up in front of him.

【what to do?】

What are you waiting for! Eat Kushina's, not Chiho's!

[Given Kushina's ability to make assumptions in reverse, if I don't eat Chiho, she'll definitely think I'm guilty.]

【I have nothing to hide, so what's there to be guilty about?! Eat!】

Bai Yu's brain was like a high-speed computer, first eliminating the option of 'dying on the spot' by not eating Kushina and eating Chiho.

He jumped up and handed the whole roasted rabbit to Kakashi: "Kakashi, help me roast it, it'll be ready soon."

Kakashi took the roasted rabbit and noticed that Shiraha was sweating and looking troubled. He subconsciously glanced at the White Fang Dagger on his back.

Women are such troublesome creatures.

It will only slow down my speed of drawing my sword.

"Thank you, I was just hungry." Bai Yu sat down naturally and took both rabbit legs from either side.

"Mmm, delicious. Kushina's grilled meat is very tender, just to my liking. Chiho's skin is a little charred, but it's also quite good with chili."

After finishing his meal, Bai Yu gave his comments.

"See, I told you! A simple test will make it clear. Little White Feather seems quite nonchalant," said the mini Nine-Tailed Fox inside the sealed space.

"Hmph!" Kushina snorted lightly, but her eyes were full of vigilance as she looked at Chiho.

The Englishman was secretly amazed by Chiho's courage.

It's no secret that Kushina was the Nine-Tails' Jinchuriki, and Chiho was surprised that she dared to pull such a dangerous trick from the jaws of death.

As expected of the Uchiha!

......

under night.

On the western border of the Land of Lightning.

Shiraha, Kushina, Chiho, and Eito raced through the forest.

The further north you go, the sparser the forests become.

After spending half a month at the border camp, they decided to go to the Land of Lightning to gather intelligence.

At least make an appearance of it.

After all, Chiho and Eito are still part of the Konoha system, unlike Shiraha and Kushina, who can basically ignore the Third Hokage.

To be honest, given Chiho and Eito's character, Shiraha really wanted to win them over.

However, considering that the two come from the Uchiha and Hyuga clans respectively, even if they are successfully brought into the future Land of Whirlpools, it would be easy to offend the Uchiha and Hyuga clans.

After encountering Ban, Bai Yu's current actions are mainly focused on stability.

If it weren't for the huge commotion caused by Kushina mastering the Nine-Tails' chakra, and his concern for Kushina's safety, he wouldn't have been so easily provoked by the Root ninjas, directly killing a Jonin from the village and then going head-to-head with the Third Hokage.

He originally planned to remain stable for more than ten years, but he didn't expect that his existence would be exposed in the 12th year after his transmigration.

Oh well... that was a mistake.

However, he doesn't regret it.

While we can't get Chiho and Eito to defect from the village, we can develop them into our inside agents in Konoha.

This Ninja World War was the opportunity for Hakuba and Kushina to leave Konoha.

If they were to defect directly, they would become someone that everyone in the ninja world would hate.

Even if they are strong enough, they cannot protect their subordinates every moment.

First, gather the Uzumaki clan members, and then, while the great battle is raging, re-ally with Konoha. In this way, they can nominally gain Konoha's support.

In times of war, allying with Konoha would be of no use whatsoever.

Before this, the Uzumaki clan had sacrificed their lives for Konoha, but when they were besieged on the eve of World War II, Konoha still failed to provide timely assistance.

The Land of Whirlpools is located on a peninsula in the southeastern part of the Land of Fire. Even if the main army cannot come to support them in time, if the Third Hokage were to bring some Jonin to provide assistance, the mere fact that it is the strongest ninja village and that it holds the empty title of "the strongest Hokage of all time" would be enough to scare away a large number of ninjas.

Konoha, or rather the Third Hokage, still harbored the idea of ​​preserving their strength.

That's why they went through the motions but didn't put in any effort, watching the Uzumaki clan perish.

After the Fourth Shinobi World War, countries whose strength was greatly diminished by the war would certainly need time to recuperate. Since the focus was on rebuilding the Uzumaki clan, not the Land of Whirlpools, and given the presence of Konoha as an ally, the daimyo of each country wouldn't force their ninja villages to exterminate the Uzumaki clan; they would have to consider their own circumstances.

"It's agreed that we'll just take a short trip into the Land of Lightning and then come back. You don't want to be hunted down by the Third Raikage, do you?"

During the journey, Bai Yu spoke up.

"Of course," the Englishman replied first. Anyway, he was serving the main family's ninjas and wouldn't risk his life. His parents had already died in World War II, and now he was single and didn't have to worry about the rest of the family.

"Be careful from now on," Bai Yu warned after they left the dense forest.

"Hmm, the Byakugan hasn't detected any enemies yet." Yingren activated his Byakugan and checked the area within a radius of 1500 meters.

The minimum observation radius of the Byakugan is 1 kilometer, or 1000 meters. As the Hyuga ninja's chakra increases and the purity of the Byakugan is affected, the observation radius will increase.

The English heard that the main clan's ninjas, unaffected by the caged bird, had a normal observation radius of about 3 kilometers. During the Warring States period, there were ninjas from the main clan who were able to observe things more than 5 kilometers away.

[Someone's coming from 2500 meters away! Such powerful chakra! Kushina, use Kagura's Mind's Eye to take a look.]

At this moment, the Nine-Tailed Fox in the sealed space suddenly issued a warning.

Kushina raised an eyebrow. Confident in her own strength and with Hyuga ninjas in her team, she only used Kagura's Mind's Eye at the very beginning to observe and sense a radius of 10 kilometers.

Kushina closed her eyes, activated Kagura's Mind's Eye to sense things, and then suddenly opened her eyes:

"There are over a dozen ninjas heading this way from the due west direction, all of them Jonin! The leader is very strong and is approaching at an alarming speed. What should we do?"

Although she wasn't panicking, Kushina still habitually looked at Shiroha.

"Retreat first. If we can't escape, deal with the lone one that comes along first."

Bai Yu reacted immediately, nodding to Kushina at the same time.

"Kurama." Kushina communicated with the Nine-Tails through chakra.

"I know without you telling me."

Inside the sealed space, the mini Nine-Tails was already sitting cross-legged, beginning to purify its chakra.

"retreat!"

The four quickly returned the way they came.

......

The Third Raikage, A, activated Lightning Release Chakra Mode, his body covered in blue lightning, and his speed suddenly increased.

"Lord Raikage! Wait for us!"

"Boss!"

More than a dozen Cloud Village Jonin gave chase with all their might, but soon they couldn't even see the Third Raikage, A's, back anymore.

"Every time the boss encounters an enemy, he charges in too fast, giving us no chance to fight back."

The only sensory-type Jonin in the team remarked, his words brimming with pride.

Although the Kage of each of the Five Great Ninja Villages have all been on the battlefield, only their Raikage has always been at the forefront of every battle, big or small.

These Cloud Village ninjas could only ever chase after that solid, wall-like figure.

As long as they could see the Raikage's back, not a single Cloud Village ninja would back down.

The existence of the Third Raikage, A, is the unifying force of Kumogakure.

"Hurry up and wipe out all the enemies. This time, we're going to launch a surprise attack on Iwagakure. We can't leak any information."

Another Cloud Village Jonin said.

"You're overthinking it. I sensed four ninjas, but only one of them has very strong chakra. Even if the boss is facing four of them, he can probably take them down quickly. Let's hurry over there; we might even be able to witness the boss's attack!"

"it is good!"

The dozen or so Cloud Village Jonin around them shouted in unison.

Everyone was rushing on their way.

If you can't help, at least be a good audience member and don't let Lord Raikage 'perform' all by himself.

In about a minute, the Jonin from Kumogakure finally arrived at the scene of the battle, their speed far exceeding that of a cheetah running at full speed.

In the darkness, all that could be seen was a ball of blue lightning and a golden figure locked in combat.

boom--!

It was as if a thunderclap had suddenly sounded from the ground.

To the astonishment of the Cloud Village Jonin, the blue lightning bolt flew backward from mid-air and crashed heavily into the ground.

"Boss!?"

The Third Raikage, A, jumped out of the pit and looked at Kushina, who had turned into a small golden statue, and said in surprise, "I never thought that there would be someone in the ninja world who could defeat me in a head-on confrontation with sheer power?"

"what?!"

The Cloud Village Jonin were speechless, their mouths agape.
