Kumogakure had no sensory barrier like Konoha's.
Those responsible for sensing were generally patrol shinobi skilled in sensory techniques.
And generally speaking, the safest place in Kumogakure was the Raikage Building.
So Kumogakure's sensor shinobi rarely took the initiative to scan the Raikage Building.
Even now that Lord Raikage was away, the sensor shinobi rarely checked the Raikage Building.
After all, Dodai was no weakling either.
With an entire building full of security shinobi and Anbu as well, the Raikage Building remained the safest place in Kumogakure.
The sensor shinobi who noticed something amiss at the Raikage Building did not give it much thought.
Lord Raikage was out fighting now, so it was perfectly normal for Lord Dodai to run things differently.
Besides, wasn't money even safer once it entered the Raikage Building?
And so, the first sensor shinobi to notice something wrong left it alone.
Bieshu Feifan sat in the Raikage's Office, packing up everything he could.
There was so much that even the scrolls Bieshu Feifan had prepared in advance proved insufficient.
Left with no choice, Bieshu Feifan had his sons in Kumogakure fetch the village's storage scrolls, along with the materials needed to inscribe formulas.
He used Kumogakure's supplies to haul away Kumogakure's goods.
While Bieshu Feifan was enthusiastically moving things, a Cloud Ninja came in to make a routine mission report.
Seeing all the busy Anbu, he was somewhat bewildered.
Lord Raikage's seat was empty.
The person in charge was someone he did not recognize.
Meanwhile, Dodai, who was temporarily handling work for the Third Raikage, lay motionless on a long table nearby.
A blanket covered Dodai's face and body, leaving his legs and feet exposed below the knees.
He looked a little cold.
Generally speaking, someone covered like that would not be able to sleep.
