Ning Feng reached Sunagakure as Rasa and the village's senior officials discussed Konoha and the threat of Uchiha Minato. He interrupted their plan to make Gaara the next One-Tail Jinchūriki, and the chapter left the officials recognizing him as Uchiha Minato.

• Rasa learned that Uchiha Minato had helped take Hiruzen out of the picture and might soon control Konoha.

• Sunagakure’s leaders tried and failed to dispel what they believed was genjutsu, realizing Ning Feng’s many Susanoo were real.
• Ning Feng’s Susanoo cut through the combined Wind Release of over a thousand elite Sunagakure ninja and drove back the defenders.

• Granny Chiyo released Shukaku, but the One-Tail recognized Ning Feng and cowered instead of attacking.
• Ning Feng declared that he would take Shukaku too, and the One-Tail vanished without a trace.

• Ning Feng told Rasa he would have to produce gold dust for Amegakure and threatened Sunagakure and Gaara if he refused.

Alarmed by Amegakure’s rise, the leaders of three great shinobi villages planned a joint attack, but their preparations were disrupted when Uchiha Minato arrived at Kumogakure.

• Ning Feng gave Chiyo a token to help her secure the position of Fifth Kazekage and returned to Amegakure with the genjutsu-trapped Fourth Kazekage, Rasa.

• A learned that the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki would serve as his new partner in the AB Combination, but a ninja soon reported that Uchiha Minato had arrived.

Uchiha Minato arrived in Kumogakure and confronted A, the Fourth Raikage, after subduing the Eight-Tails. He revealed that he had intercepted Kumogakure’s attempts to contact Kirigakure and Iwagakure, leaving A to reconsider his village’s plans.

• A, the Fourth Raikage, rushed to the Eight-Tails’ location after hearing that Uchiha Minato had arrived.
• A found Gyuki subdued, with Uchiha Minato standing atop him.

• A denied that Kumogakure planned to form an alliance, but Uchiha Minato revealed several captured intelligence Ninja who had been sent to contact Kirigakure and Iwagakure.

Ning Feng used hidden Explosion Release chakra to intimidate Fourth Raikage A and demanded Kumogakure recognize the Konoha–Amegakure alliance, leave its allied force, and surrender the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki. As A considered his response, Yagura and Ōnoki arrived to oppose Ning Feng’s demands.

• A wrestled with whether to attack Uchiha Minato, fearing the cost of committing Kumogakure’s forces.
• Uchiha Minato exposed A’s thoughts and urged him to inspect the village before acting.
• A’s sensory division reported that Explosion Release chakra around Kumogakure could destroy more than half the village.
• Ning Feng explained that he had planted the chakra to intimidate Kumogakure, not destroy it.
• A asked what Kumogakure must do to make amends, and Ning Feng demanded recognition of the Konoha–Amegakure treaty, withdrawal from the allied force, and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.
• Yagura and Ōnoki arrived as A hesitated, and Yagura challenged Ning Feng’s demand that Kumogakure leave the allied force.

• Ning Feng recognized Orochimaru waiting near Amegakure’s entrance, while Orochimaru stared in disbelief at the village’s grandeur.

Orochimaru approached Uchiha Minato at Amegakure, offering forbidden techniques and proposing to establish research laboratories there. Minato recognized that Orochimaru wanted access to his resources and coveted his body, while Minato Namikaze, Itachi, and Shisui quietly returned from watching Kumogakure.

• Minato Namikaze, Itachi, and Shisui watched Kumogakure’s outskirts after Uchiha Minato intimidated its elite ninja, then left when they saw he was safe.
• Uchiha Minato returned to Amegakure, where Nagato, Konan, Orochimaru, and Kabuto Yakushi were waiting.
• Orochimaru praised Uchiha Minato and offered to establish ninjutsu laboratories in Amegakure in exchange for resources and forbidden techniques.
• Konan collected the scrolls Orochimaru offered, and Uchiha Minato realized Orochimaru wanted to join him for his own purposes.
• Orochimaru secretly coveted Uchiha Minato’s body because his reincarnation technique was nearing its time limit, and Minato possessed Hashirama cells, a Mangekyō Sharingan, and other kekkei genkai.

Uchiha Minato welcomed Orochimaru to Amegakure but demanded that he share his forbidden techniques, including Impure World Reincarnation and his research into immortality.

• Orochimaru promised to share his core forbidden techniques after settling in Amegakure, and Uchiha Minato accepted.

With Orochimaru and Uchiha Itachi joining Amegakure, Ning Feng expanded the village’s capabilities and began gathering bodies for the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu. He then used Amegakure’s strength and generous offers to bring surrounding small villages under its influence.

• Orochimaru joined Amegakure and gave Ning Feng the Longevity Jutsu and Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu, so Ning Feng sent Nagato and Konan to find the graves of powerful figures.
• Ning Feng told Nagato to notify him immediately if the team found Madara Uchiha’s grave.

• Within half a month, many villages around the Land of Rain agreed to become Amegakure’s vassals.

Ning Feng oversaw Amegakure’s rapid growth while Nagato searched for materials for Impure World Reincarnation, but Nagato was attacked by Kirigakure ninja. After Uchiha Minato rescued him, Ning Feng decided to take revenge on Kirigakure and confront its secrets.

• Nagato gathered many samples for Impure World Reincarnation, but he could not find Madara Uchiha’s grave.
• Ning Feng saw Amegakure’s forces grow to over eighty thousand ninja as the village expanded and took on missions from Konoha.
• An Anbu ninja reported that Nagato had been attacked in Kirigakure, and Ning Feng headed to the Land of Water.
• Four Kirigakure assassination squads cornered the wounded Nagato, but Uchiha Minato defeated the ninja outside his cave and rescued him.
• Ning Feng suspected Obito Uchiha was behind the attack and told Nagato to recover before they went to take revenge on Kirigakure.

Obito Uchiha learned that Ning Feng had come to Kirigakure after Nagato was pursued and wounded, and prepared for a confrontation. Ning Feng planned to seize Kirigakure’s Seven Ninja Blades, while Obito recognized that Ning Feng’s actions seemed to advance the Eye of the Moon Plan more effectively than his own.

• Black Zetsu told Obito Uchiha that Ning Feng had likely come because Kirigakure’s forces pursued and wounded Nagato.
• Ning Feng and the recovered Nagato entered Kirigakure, where Nagato reported that the Mizukage was recalling Jonin and might know Ning Feng was there.

• Hozuki Zangetsu ordered Kirigakure’s elite Jonin and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist to assemble, hoping to prepare against Ning Feng.
• Obito Uchiha wondered whether Ning Feng was the true heir to Madara Uchiha’s legacy because his actions seemed better suited to carrying out the Eye of the Moon Plan.

Obito Uchiha learned that Ning Feng had entered Kirigakure and prepared to confront him with help from the Land of Earth and the Land of Lightning. Ning Feng killed the Kirigakure Anbu sent to invite him to the Mizukage's residence, prompting Obito Uchiha to go stall him until the allied Ninja arrived.
