Eight-Tails: Since You Can't Beat Them, Join Them

Dodai quickly perked up, his facial expression turning serious as well.

"Raikage-sama, based on observations and speculations, Turtle Island was torn apart by some kind of powerful force, and the traces left by the partial flesh and blood indicate that such a force is very similar to a Tailed Beast Ball."
