The red-dyed sea surface gradually returned to calm. The boundless sea has a heart that embraces everything and covers up all the past.

The creatures that originally lived on Giant Turtle Island were also swallowed by the sea and no longer exist in this world.

After a long time, a group of figures suddenly ran towards this direction on the skyline where the sea and the sky met. When the figures got closer, it was discovered that they were a group of Cloud Ninjas wearing animal masks.

"We're late!"

The leader was of large build, but he was not wearing the standard ANBU mask.

"It was Kee who sent the distress signal. Did you find anything?"

"Unfortunately, Kei's chakra response is gone."

"Where is the giant turtle?"

"Although it is still alive, the bloodstains left in the sea water prove that the giant turtle was seriously injured and is now dormant on the seabed."

"Really? At least they didn't get wiped out at once! How are Yumoto and Killer Bee? They should have some reaction from the tailed beast's chakra, right?"

Every village has a way to track the chakra of its own tailed beast. Although it is not very accurate, villages like the Hidden Mist Village, which have been fighting internally for decades and most of their inheritance has been cut off, are the most powerless.

The Hidden Cloud Village is relatively outstanding, but it is slightly inferior because Konoha has several powerful bloodline limits and secret technique families.

"The reaction of Yubokujin's chakra completely disappeared, and the Two-Tails' chakra also disappeared. Although there is still some chakra left in Killer Bee and the Eight-Tails, it is very weak and it is impossible to tell whether they are alive or not."

"Asshole, so it is possible that both of them were arrested?"

"Unfortunately, I can't deny it."

"Report to Lord Raikage immediately! Those who still have enough chakra, follow me!"

Although I understand that it is probably useless, I can only do my best and leave the rest to fate.

…

In less than half a day, the Fourth Raikage, who was still in the Five Kage Conference, found out what had happened in his family, and the first person to be blamed was the table in front of him.

"You bastard, you are so bold that you dare to attack my brother!"

The hot-tempered Fourth Raikage is about to turn around and go back to settle accounts with the Akatsuki organization and rescue Killer Bee.

"Calm down, Yondaime-sama."

Darui and Xi, who acted as guards, held back the angry Fourth Raikage.

"With Lord Omoi and Lord Dodai in charge of the village, it should be fine, but Lord Yondaime has to do his job well. We don't even know where the Akatsuki members are right now, so there's no way we can rescue them!"

"So I'm just going to wait for my brother to be killed?"

"Please read the information patiently, Lord Yondaime. Your brother may have escaped, but he has not been found yet. We are searching for him. In addition, Yukito has also been captured, and we need to find the Giant Turtle Island..."

"No need to say a lot, I know!"

The Fourth Raikage had no choice but to sit down and then shouted to the other four Kages.

"We have been arguing for so long and wasting time on trivial matters. If you hadn't been so nosy, I would have gone back a long time ago and would not have suffered such a big loss."

Ōnoki, Gaara, Mei Terumi and Tsunade looked at each other. It was obvious that the conditions were difficult to negotiate because this hot-tempered guy asked for too much. Now they have suffered a loss and finally realized how powerful he is.

However, now is not the time to expose anyone's scars.

"Let's finalize the previous plan. If we don't eradicate the Akatsuki organization soon, there will be more victims sooner or later."

"That's settled then."

In just a few words, a matter that had not been compromised for two or three days was decided. As expected, one had to be forced into a desperate situation before realizing the urgency of the situation.

"etc……"

Nozomi, a jonin from the Hidden Cloud Village who was proficient in medical ninjutsu and perception, interjected.

"While we were searching, we found the jonins of Konoha Village, Might Guy, Hyuga Neji, Tenten, and Rock Lee. Might Guy was seriously injured and unconscious, and the other three were also seriously injured and are recuperating in the Land of Lightning..."

"What?"

Tsunade couldn't help but slam the table and stood up.

"Is there such a thing?"

"It seems that you know they are there. I wonder why Konoha ninjas would appear in the waters of the Land of Lightning?"

Tsunade hesitated for a moment, then nodded and replied:

"This should be an accident. Might Guy and his subordinates are tracking Kakuzu and Hidan, but they should not invade the Land of Lightning. Might Guy is an experienced jonin and will never make such a mistake..."

"That's right. According to what we know, they got lost at sea and mistakenly entered the waters of the Land of Lightning. Then they happened to encounter the invasion of the Akatsuki organization. After a hard battle, they broke through and escaped. They saw with their own eyes that the two-tailed Jinchuriki of our village was captured and the eight-tailed Jinchuriki was seriously injured. But it is unknown whether they were abducted or not."

“I see…”

Tsunade was also a little anxious.

"I wonder how Kai's injury is?"

"He is no longer in danger of death, but his physical condition is very poor and he may relapse."

"Then I'll go ..."

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Tsunade realized that something was wrong. It would have a bad impact if she left the Five Kage Conference without permission.

"How about this, Konoha's top ninja Mizuki is here, let him go over and deal with it..."

It would be great if Mizuki, who is proficient in medical ninjutsu and can also use the Flying Thunder God Technique, could go to provide support.

"That's fine!"

After everything was arranged, Tsunade sighed:

"With the strength of the Might Guy team, and the two Jinchūriki being badly defeated, the enemy's strength is truly terrifying. I'm afraid only when strong men of our level join forces can we have such power, right?"

"I didn't expect that even after the leader of Akatsuki was killed, there is still such fighting power."

Although Gaara survived the battle to recapture the Kazekage not long ago, it cannot be considered a victory.

The enemy was unharmed, while our side lost the One-Tailed Shukaku and the powerful Granny Chiyo, but gained basically nothing.

Just a few days later, they were raided by the Akatsuki organization again, and the Two-Tails was taken away again. There was even a possibility that the Eight-Tails was also captured. This blow embarrassed the Five Kage who were still arguing here.

But it’s better this way. This incident has also strengthened everyone’s determination to unite. At least we still have Vulpix and Kyuubi in our hands, so there’s still time for everything.

…

After knowing what happened on Giant Turtle Island, Mizuki, who had extremely low mobility, found out the exact location and used the Flying Thunder God Technique to instantly arrive in the Land of Lightning. Then, with his super-fast flying ability, he arrived in front of the unconscious Might Guy in less than two hours.

After a careful examination and some emergency treatment, Shuimu finally felt relieved. If such a powerful force that could save the world with brute force was lost prematurely, Shuimu would have a headache again.

He turned his head and looked at Hyuga Neji who was wrapped in bandages.

"How did it become like this? Tell me exactly what happened..."
