The Collapsed Chain Mountains

As the Raikage, a powerful figure with immense strength, it's only natural for Raikage to be arrogant.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to become the Raikage; he relied on his outstanding strength and absolute confidence.

Therefore, listening to the discussions among the elders around him, a hint of arrogance flashed in his eyes.

Ta-da!

A rapid knocking sounded, and before the people inside could say anything, the office door was pushed open, and the Sensory Unit leader rushed in in a flustered manner.

"Lord Raikage, something has happened!"

"What's with this reckless behavior? You're the captain; no matter how serious the matter, you can't be so flustered," Raikage reprimanded, his voice stern.

"Yes, look at Lord Raikage. He never flinches no matter what happens. You should learn from Lord Raikage."

"That's right. You've been through quite a few battles. I thought you were mature enough, but it seems you still have some shortcomings."

The surrounding elders spoke up, each secretly shaking their heads, feeling that this Sensory Unit leader still needed more experience.

"My lords, listen to me, this is a really big deal," the commander of the Sensory Unit hurriedly explained.

"Go ahead and tell me, I want to see what's causing this panic," the Third Elder said nonchalantly.

"Sirs, the Chain Mountains has been blasted flat by a mysterious person," the Sensory Unit leader hurriedly reported.

"The Chain Mountains was bombed flat?"

Everyone was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and then their expressions changed slightly.

"What did you say? You mean the Chain Mountains? The continuous mountain ranges dozens of miles outside the village?" the Second Elder asked hurriedly.

"Yes, that's it." The Sensory Unit commander nodded without hesitation.

"Impossible! Do you know how difficult it is to flatten Chain Mountains? Do you know how treacherous those peaks are? Even Lord Raikage couldn't do it."

The Third Elder spoke loudly, his voice becoming somewhat shrill. If that mountain peak were truly flattened, it would be an earth-shattering event.

"It's true, this news is absolutely real. I checked it five times before coming to report it," the Sensory Unit commander assured.

"Impossible! I just got back from a mission there yesterday, and today you're telling me it's been razed to the ground? Don't even mention me, not even a three-year-old would believe that."

The Fourth Elder shook his head without hesitation.

"I swear on my life."

Before the commander of the Sensory Unit could finish speaking, the commanders of the Anbu and the Guard Unit suddenly appeared in the office.

"Urgent intelligence! The Chain Mountains has been blasted flat by a mysterious force!" the Guard Unit captain hurriedly reported, his voice trembling slightly.

"Yes, the Anbu has also confirmed this news; Chain Mountains is truly gone," the ANBU Captain said solemnly.

"This..."

Upon hearing this, the senior executives in the office all stood up, looking at the three captains with surprise and uncertainty. They all sensed the seriousness of the matter.

Even the Raikage abandoned his arrogance at this moment, his expression becoming extremely solemn, because flattening the Chain Mountains was something that not only he, but all the previous Kage, had been unable to do.

So he asked again, "Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

The three captains nodded without hesitation, their expressions serious yet tinged with a hint of horror.

Raikage was still somewhat incredulous. The Chain Mountains had existed for far too long, standing firm through countless ages, and now it was gone just like that. It was truly unbelievable.

"I'll go and confirm it myself," Raikage said after a moment's thought.

"We'll go with you."

Several elders also spoke up. Although, based on the reports from the three captains, they felt the news might be true, but...

But those are Chain Mountains, with countless steep peaks and numerous barriers, a majestic existence like an insurmountable chasm, which cannot be affected by human power at all.

Therefore, they were extremely unwilling to believe it and insisted on verifying it themselves.

They set off quickly, heading towards the Chain Mountains in a grand procession.

After a long journey, they finally arrived at the Chain Mountains.

But when they saw the devastated land, all the collapsed and crumbling mountains, and the terrifying, endless Chasm, they were shocked.

"It's... it's really gone, the Chain Mountains is really gone."

"How is this possible? So many steep mountain peaks, gone overnight?"

"Could it be that there are unknown super-strong individuals in this world who surpass the Kage Level?"

The elders spoke in horror, staring in shock at the Chain Mountains area.

Their shock was several times greater than that of the perception captain back then.

"Lord Raikage, how... how did you do that? Is it really possible for a human to achieve this level of power?"

"It's very difficult, extremely difficult. If anyone could actually do it, it would probably be the God of Shinobi, Hashirama Senju, or Madara Uchiha."

Raikage's solemn explanation, though seemingly calm, revealed that he was no less shocked than anyone else.

At his level, it's already very difficult to significantly improve his strength.

Furthermore, as one gets older, one's strength will gradually decrease. Originally, the Raikage thought he was one of the top ninjas in the Ninja World.

But now it seems that my strength is worlds apart from that of the super strong who flattened the Chain Mountains.

Such a huge gap was hard for even the Raikage to accept; it was simply too much of a blow.

"Who is it? Who is it? Could it be that Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha are still alive?" The Raikage's voice was filled with undisguised shock.

Everyone fell silent upon hearing this, each pondering who had accomplished all of this.

The atmosphere at the scene gradually became heavy, and many people fell silent, because the direction of that super strong person's attack was the Kumogakure of the Land of Lightning, so they were likely all doomed.

Because everyone was somewhat alarmed, feeling that things were worse than they had imagined.

But at this time...

The Fourth Elder suddenly spoke, his voice light and cheerful.

"This is a good thing. The Chain Mountains blocked out a large area, and the people living around it were impoverished. Now that this area has been opened up, people can live better, right?"

"The Fourth Elder is right. The village has wanted to open up this place for a long time, but even with the entire Land of Lightning's operation, which consumes countless manpower and resources, it would still take many years. That's why it's been shelved."

"But now the mountain peaks have all collapsed. As long as we repair them properly, we will definitely be able to build a main road in a few years, which will greatly help the poor people in the vicinity."

The Third Elder explained with a smile.

"Etc."

The Fourth Elder suddenly thought of something.

"Perhaps that unknown powerful being intervened to help them because they saw too many poor people around them?!"

"Huh? You mean..."

Everyone was taken aback by these words, then exchanged glances and said, "Ahem, I think it should be repaired properly; building a main road would be really nice."

"Yes, I think so too."

The elders all spoke, glancing hesitantly at Raikage.

Raikage listened to these words and fell silent. He actually understood what these elders meant.

An extremely powerful being capable of destroying these mountains could easily destroy the Land of Lightning as well; such a powerful being is absolutely not to be provoked.

Since this super strong person acted for the sake of the poor people here, the correct course of action for the Land of Lightning to avoid offending him is to build roads.

Only in this way can we comply with the wishes of this super strong person; otherwise, if we anger that super strong person, no one can withstand the consequences.

But thinking of the current weakness of Konoha, the Raikage felt somewhat unwilling. However, after some thought, he realized that the safety of the Land of Lightning was the most important thing, so he nodded.

"You're right, a main road really should be built here."

Living room of a small villa in Konoha.

Naruto sat on the sofa, listening to the Experience Points that kept popping up in his mind, and raised an eyebrow slightly.

"I casually used a little bit of my power and unexpectedly received a pleasant surprise. Not bad, but what was bound to happen has finally happened." Naruto finished speaking and looked towards the village entrance.
