Most of Kumogakure's ninja were muscle-brained brutes. When they fought, they charged forward howling without caring for their lives—reckless fools who went head-on the moment they saw an enemy. In terms of overall organization, they were actually far inferior to Iwagakure's ninja.
If the Fourth Raikage had still been alive, he could have twisted the entire village into a single rope. With Dodai's assistance, they could have displayed formidable combat strength.
But unfortunately, the Fourth Raikage had long perished in the Konoha Incident two years ago.
In other words, Kumogakure's cohesion as an organization resembling a gang might have been high, but its specific organizational structure was somewhat lacking.
Of course, if the Fourth Raikage had lived a few more years, this situation would certainly have improved.
After all, in the original timeline, Kumogakure had been able to produce a Chakra Cannon capable of reaching the moon soon after the Fourth Great Ninja War, which already revealed his ambitions.
He was absolutely not a short-sighted man.
When Naruto and Sasuke suppressed the era, no one had dared to disrupt the peace. Yet whether it was Kumogakure's Chakra Cannon or the Artificial Human Kū created by Ōnoki of Iwagakure who could use Dust Release, both had already indicated something.
Every ninja village—or at least Kumogakure and Iwagakure—had been using this period to vigorously develop weapons of war. One could imagine that if the Otsutsuki had not descended, then after Naruto and Sasuke died, what awaited the Shinobi World would definitely be an unprecedented, massive war!
Of course, at least in this timeline, Kumogakure still had major flaws before its destruction.
Iwagakure's situation, however, was different.
Although the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki had died, after years of his management, Iwagakure's ninja, while rather ordinary, had a guaranteed baseline. They were also extremely united
