However, since he is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki from the original work, it's not surprising that he has a long-term political vision.

"Of course I'm going to the battlefield. I'm too young for the Second Shinobi World War. You'd rather take Mikoto than me."

"This is a great opportunity, I won't let it slip by again."

As she spoke, a part of Kushina's body turned into magma, a testament to her excitement.

"What do you think the battlefield is? Do you think you can mess around with it?"

Ziyun asked, speechless.

"Hmph, Ziyun, am I not strong enough? In the entire Kumogakure, besides you, Mikoto probably has no one who can match me."

Even the Third Raikage wouldn't do.

" Ziyun, if you don't let me go to the battlefield, I'll never speak to you again."

Kushina was getting anxious; she was genuinely afraid that Ziyun (Zhao Haohao) wouldn't let her go to the battlefield.

"Alright, alright, I'll definitely let you take the lead. How about making you the commander-in-chief?" Ziyun said with a smile.

"Mua!"

Kushina gave Ziyun a big kiss on the cheek and exclaimed excitedly:

" Ziyun, I knew you were the best."

"Ahem... Kushina, I'm here too. Please be mindful of your behavior."

Mei Terumi, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed.

" Mei Terumi... as the Raikage's secretary, do I need to remind you what you need to do at a time like this?"

Kushina suddenly said something rather unfriendly.

Kushina was starting to feel a sense of crisis regarding Mei Terumi. This 14-year-old girl was already displaying alluring qualities; she needed to be taught a lesson, otherwise, given Ziyun's philandering nature, she might just fall for her.

"Women can be really scary when they're jealous," Ziyun said helplessly, shrugging as he watched the scene unfold.

Mei Terumi had been frightened by Kushina's fiery temper, so she quickly left the Raikage's Office.

"Hmph, you have the nerve to say that? Others are only 14 years old, and you've been staring at them like that. You didn't look at me like that when I was 14."

"If you dare do that again, I'll bite you to death."

Kushina, sounding both aggrieved and threatening.

"There's nothing we can do about it."

Ziyun waved his hand. In terms of looks, Kushina could definitely rank in the top ten, or even the top five, of the Hokage.

But in terms of figure, she probably wouldn't even make the top twenty.

Mei Terumi is someone whose face and figure could easily rank in the top three, how can you compare?

After spending some time with Kushina in the Raikage's Office, Ziyun returned home and told Mikoto Tsunade the impending war.

"War is about to break out, and we'll probably get involved too."

Mikoto looked at Ziyun and said.

Mikoto now possesses the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, reaching the Super Kage Level in strength.

As for where her Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan came from, it was naturally obtained by Ziyun from completing a mission.

Besides Mikoto, Ziyun also possesses the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.

"That's right, the Kumogakure is already very powerful. I don't even need to bring it up Raikage; many people below have already volunteered to fight."

Ziyun nodded. Kumogakure would definitely be joining this Shinobi World War.

The Kumogakure is now stronger than ever before, but they are seeking to maximize their profits.

The most important aspect of war is expansion; failure in expansion means defeat on the battlefield.

Speaking of expansion, the land ceded by the Land of Fire to the Hidden Cloud Village during the Second Shinobi World War generated an annual income exceeding 10 billion ryo.

Over the past decade, this land has brought in over 100 billion taels of revenue for Kumogakure.

Besides its formidable military strength, Kumogakure's economic power is now second only to Konoha.

"Let's keep targeting the Land of Fire this time."

Tsunade analyzed from the side.

In these seven years, Tsunade has also grown. Having learned Sage Mode, her strength has reached the Peak Kage Level.

Its destructive power is similar to Kushina's, comparable to Super Kage Level.

"That's right, who can blame them when the Land of Fire occupies such fertile land yet is so weak?"

"Those whose virtue does not match their position will surely suffer calamity. Let us take their place and rule the Land of Fire."

Ziyun had already made up his mind. Now that the Kumogakure was stronger than ever before, they could take more land from the Land of Fire without worrying about losing it.

" Mikoto, I'm the commander-in-chief this time."

Kushina said smugly, as if she were showing off something.

" Ziyun, is this true? You've really made up your mind?"

Mikoto and Tsunade both stared wide-eyed.

They had no problem with Kushina's strength, but rather with Kushina temperament and personality; she was easily impulsive.

I always felt uneasy about her being in charge.

"Of course, but there are three commanders-in-chief this time, and you are all one of them." Ziyun was naturally still worried.

However, since I had already promised Kushina, I had no choice but to let her be the commander-in-chief.

"Damn it, Ziyun, what kind of commander-in-chief is this? There are three commanders-in-chief? Can that still be called a commander-in-chief?"

Kushina said, somewhat angrily.

"What else should I call you if not Commander-in-Chief? Deputy Commander? I have no objection if you want to call me Deputy Commander."

Ziyun had no choice but to pretend to be confused, as he couldn't possibly hand over all the decision-making power for Kumogakure to Kushina.

"That wretched Ziyun!" Kushina huffed, but didn't have any good ideas.

Who made Ziyun the Raikage?

Meanwhile, several guests arrived at the entrance of Kumogakure.

"I'll be seeing Yeyue Ziyun again. I hope this negotiation goes smoothly."

The man at the head of the group, who looked extremely sinister, was Orochimaru of Konoha Sannin.

Since the Third Kazekage disappeared, Konoha had predicted that the Third Shinobi World War would definitely break out.

Therefore, they immediately dispatched Orochimaru to negotiate with Kumogakure.

If you were to ask who Konoha fears the most, it would undoubtedly be Kumogakure.

The Konoha F4, in particular, were filled with anger and resentment upon hearing the name Yeyue Ziyun, yet they had to admit that Kumogakure was too powerful.

If the Third Shinobi World War breaks out and Kumogakure attacks Konoha again, Konoha will definitely suffer heavy losses.

Therefore, Hiruzen Sarutobi sent people to Kumogakure to negotiate, hoping to form an alliance between the two villages.

Orochimaru has now begun research into forbidden techniques and immortality, but he has not lost hope in Konoha.

Orochimaru truly lost faith in Konoha after the Third Shinobi World War, when Minato Namikaze usurped the position of Fourth Hokage.

So Orochimaru volunteered for this position, since he is still interested in the Fourth Hokage's post.

Another reason is that Orochimaru was very interested in the Devil Power of Kumogakure.

According to the intelligence he gathered, Devil Power can suddenly grant a person abilities similar to Kekkei Genkai.

Ziyun's lightning body and fusion ability are examples of Devil Power.

He hoped to witness more Devil Power upon entering the Kumogakure.

"If I discover any improper behavior from you after entering Kumogakure, I will kill you on the spot."

The one currently in charge of guarding the gates of Kumogakure is Juzo Biwa, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist of the Mist.

He spoke to the Konoha members with an icy air.

"Hateful."

The Konoha Ninja beside Orochimaru were furious. It was utterly humiliating that a mere gatekeeper could be so arrogant towards them.

Orochimaru, on the other hand, seemed completely unfazed.

The Kumogakure is much stronger than the Hidden Konoha.

If you want others to treat you well, you must first improve your own abilities.

"Don't worry, we're very sincere this time and won't do anything reckless. Please go and inform the Fourth Raikage."

Orochimaru said amiably.

Juzo Biwa snorted coldly, then sent someone to inform Ziyun. Soon, Ziyun let Orochimaru and the others in.

"You can go in alone; the rest of you wait outside."

The person in charge of guarding the Raikage Building is Hozuki Mangetsu, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist of the Mist.

"Amazing spirit."

Orochimaru watched Hozuki Mangetsu with great interest, then entered the Raikage Building alone.

" Orochimaru, what do you want with me? You should know very well that Kumogakure and Konoha have never gotten along."

" Hiruzen Sarutobi and his gang are itching to tear me apart and drink my blood. Did they send you here to assassinate me?"

Ziyun looked at Orochimaru and said calmly.
