Dodai breathed a sigh of relief. "That's my assessment. After all, Konoha's commanders on the Kirigakure front are Hyuga Hiashi, head of the Hyuga Clan, and Uchiha Fugaku, former head of the Uchiha Clan!"
"Of course, there's another reason I'm worried: we still haven't heard a word from the envoys we sent to Kirigakure!"

"No matter what condition he's in now, if he dares show himself, I'll tear him limb from limb!"

The second person in recent years to make Lord Raikage this furious.
The first was the famed Yellow Flash, who had killed without warning during the Third Shinobi World War, appearing and vanishing like Wind Release.
The second...
That Uchiha lunatic who had repeatedly provoked them at the border after the war, striking and fleeing so often that his name terrified Kumogakure's border outposts!
She had still been young during the Third Shinobi World War. She had barely glimpsed the battlefield before the anxious adults sent her back to the village.
But she had seen that man from a few years ago with her own eyes...
