Keep Growing Stronger Forever
Yun Yan had already gone this far, threatening to this extent, so even if the Fourth Raikage was unwilling and stubborn, he had no choice but to back down.
Following Yun Yan's description, the Fourth Raikage let his imagination run wild, especially when he thought about that bastard from the Uchiha clan who, with his Flying Thunder God, could freely enter and exit his Kumogakure as if it were his own backyard.
Then, he wreaked havoc and committed massacres within his Kumogakure, deliberately refusing to give them a quick death, killing only a portion each time, slowly and painstakingly cutting flesh with a dull knife, leaving the Kumogakure in perpetual suffering.
Thinking about it like that sent chills down my spine and terrified me.
The Fourth Raikage could not accept this, and absolutely would not allow the Kumogakure, which he cherished, to suffer such a disaster.
So at this moment, the Fourth Raikage finally faced reality. He lowered his head dejectedly and let out a few helpless roars from his throat:
"I understand, I admit defeat."
However, Yun Yan didn't let him off so easily. Standing before the Fourth Raikage, who was kneeling on one knee, Yun Yan's face was cold. He then asked the Fourth Raikage again to confirm:
"Fourth Raikage, please speak more clearly and explain yourself more plainly. Don't just say 'I admit defeat'."
A hint of resentment flashed in his eyes, along with the inevitable humiliation of being insulted, but the Fourth Raikage could only suppress these negative emotions and prevent them from disturbing his peace of mind.
Swallowing all the bitter pills in his throat, the Fourth Raikage didn't resort to tricks this time, but answered seriously and directly:
"I, the Fourth Raikage, concede defeat. I have lost this battle, and I have lost completely. I accept it. Furthermore, all the conflicts between our Kumogakure and you personally are hereby wiped clean."
Hearing the Fourth Raikage speak so clearly and directly, Yun Yan nodded in satisfaction.
"Good, very good. As expected of the Fourth Raikage, you can recognize the situation at critical moments and be flexible for the greater good. This is what makes you a qualified Kage of a village."
To be honest, I'm not afraid of airing my dirty laundry in public. Compared to you, that old guy in our Konoha has the nerve to call himself flexible and resilient; he's just utterly weak...
"Hmph, I don't even want to mention him anymore."
After saying this and subconsciously complaining, Yun Yan simply closed the Mangekyou Sharingan, and the Susanoo half disappeared.
The Fourth Raikage finally didn't have to tough it out anymore. He almost spat out another mouthful of blood, but ultimately chose to swallow it.
Kneeling on one knee and swaying for a while, the Fourth Raikage finally stood up relatively steadily after catching his breath, and stood in front of Yun Yan.
Looking at the Uchiha who had defeated him, the Fourth Raikage's expression was unfriendly, but he did not act rashly. He simply kept these grudges hidden in his heart and would take revenge later.
Seeing the Fourth Raikage's gaze, Yun Yan shook his head helplessly and actually started discussing a problem with him:
"I'm telling you, Fourth Raikage, judging from your eyes and your current state, I know you can't forget what happened today, and you definitely won't forget me, or the humiliation and hatred you suffered today, right?"
The Fourth Raikage was quite direct; he stared coldly at Yun Yan and nodded decisively.
"Yes, these things... I will never forget them."
Yun Yan nodded, not caring.
"Yes, I knew it. It makes perfect sense. No matter how strong I am, I can't control your emotions unless I'm strong enough to make you completely despair and feel that there's no hope of revenge."
Unfortunately, I'm still a little short of that level of power.
"Besides, you just promised that all the conflicts between me and your Kumogakure, including the matter of me killing so many ninjas within your Lightning Country, will be wiped clean from now on, right?"
Although reluctant to admit it, the Fourth Raikage nodded with a strained expression.
Pointing at the Fourth Raikage nodding, Yun Yan laughed out loud and bluntly said:
"Although you nod now, you definitely don't agree in your heart. Who knows what you're thinking about in the future, how you'll get revenge, or how you'll kill me."
Haha, that's only human nature, I understand. I never expect to make you forget about this by making you admit defeat or anything.
Even the so-called "let's call it even" is just talk. I know that once I'm in decline, or if you seize any opportunity, you will definitely seek revenge, taking it all with you this time.
The Fourth Raikage neither nodded in agreement with Yun Yan's extremely realistic words, nor did he directly refute them, which can be considered an admission of acquiescence.
Seeing the Fourth Raikage's reaction, Yun Yan shook his head helplessly and sighed:
"Sigh... It seems that from now on I can only become stronger and stronger, never giving you any chance, until I become so strong that you despair and can no longer even think of resisting or seeking revenge."
"Fourth Raikage, believe me, I can do this."
The Fourth Raikage remained silent, perhaps unsure whether to agree or disagree; his face remained ashen, and he said nothing.
At this moment, Yun Yan approached the Fourth Raikage, patted him on the shoulder familiarly, and finally said to him:
"Alright, since that's the case, let's consider this matter completely resolved today."
From now on, you Yun Yan Village people better not be so brainless as to provoke me. If you don't provoke me, I won't bother with you.
"Oh, and try not to mess with Konoha. Although I don't feel much of a sense of belonging to Konoha, it's still where I live, a pretty peaceful and quiet place. I don't want anything to go wrong in my neighborhood, understand?"
The Fourth Raikage wanted to say he didn't understand, but faced with Yun Yan's threatening gaze, he could only nod in humiliation.
After receiving a response from the Fourth Raikage, Yun Yan was finally completely satisfied. He activated the Flying Thunder God Technique and vanished in an instant, leaving the area via teleportation.
After Yun Yan left, the Fourth Raikage looked at the desolate, ravaged battlefield littered with rubble and felt a deep sense of sorrow.
What are we going to do? What will become of Kumogakure (Kumogakure)?
In today's battle, the Kumogakure suffered a defeat, and the Fourth Raikage was defeated—a crushing defeat, one might say.
Through this crushing defeat, he vaguely grasped the approximate strength of Uchiha Yunyan. This person was not just a Kage Level shinobi; he was a Super Kage Level shinobi! He was probably on par with Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju back in the day!
While he probably won't reach the level of Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju, he's likely not far off. This difference in strength is almost despair-inducing.
I was utterly defeated today. With this person's Flying Thunder God Technique, even if I had the chance to team up with Killer B in the future, I probably wouldn't be a match for him.
What are we going to do? The Fourth Raikage really doesn't see any chance now. With such a person suddenly appearing in Konoha, the future of their Kumogakure is bleak.
Although Uchiha Yunyan seems to be at odds with Konoha, and he just said that he doesn't feel a strong sense of belonging to Konoha, he is still a member of Konoha and has said that he doesn't want any problems to arise in the place where he lives.
In this way, there is no way to separate Konoha from Uchiha Yunyan, and the problem remains as difficult as before! They still see no hope in Kumogakure.
Just as the Fourth Raikage was feeling melancholy and even distressed, Darui and the Kumogakure Anbu Ninja hurriedly arrived.
As soon as Yun Yan left using the Flying Thunder God, the Genjutsu he Mangekyō Sharingan began to gradually lose its effectiveness, and they gradually stopped jumping to New Treasure Island.
Before these people came to their senses, they found themselves in a strange formation, dancing a bizarre dance, and they were all extremely ashamed and indignant.
What's not to understand? It's obvious that bastard from the Uchiha clan hypnotized them all with Genjutsu and then used Genjutsu to humiliate them like this.
Damn it, one look and he hypnotized so many of my people. Is this the power of the Mangekyō Sharingan? How am I supposed to deal with an enemy like this?
After a bout of indignation and anger, Darui and the Kumogakure's Anbu Ninja belatedly realized what was happening and quickly assessed their surroundings.
That bastard from the Uchiha clan is gone, I don't know where he went, but their Fourth Raikage is still there, standing far away.
However, the Fourth Raikage did not seem to be in good condition. He looked very distressed, and his right arm was completely gone, indicating that his injury was quite serious.
So Darui led the Kumogakure's Anbu Ninja rushing over, anxiously expressing their concern to the Fourth Raikage:
"Lord Raikage, are you alright? Are you alright?"
Faced with the concern of his subordinate and junior, the Fourth Raikage shook his head with a wry smile, then looked at his right arm, which was missing from his shoulder.
Losing an arm means what? It means that even if one's fighting ability isn't significantly reduced, one's strength will be noticeably diminished.
This is truly... when it rains, it pours; this is probably the perfect example of that.
