"Dodai actually became the Sixth Raikage?"
Shihōin Naraku looked at the intelligence that had just arrived, deeply surprised by its contents.
This news really was unexpected!
Naraku knew very well what an awkward position Kumogakure had been in lately. One Raikage after another had met with disaster, leaving the village without anyone to lead it.
Under normal circumstances, although something like this had a major impact, given enough time, any of the major ninja villages would choose another suitable candidate to serve as its leader.
But the trouble now was that not only was the Shinobi World in turmoil, the Five Kage Summit was also fast approaching. Naraku had therefore been wondering whether Kumogakure could select a new Raikage before the final deadline.

"Your assumptions are all
