“This battle report states that Ai and Ling have achieved victory in the battle against Konoha and have stationed themselves at the border of Konoha!”

“Those two boys, Ai and Ling, have done a wonderful job!”

The Third Raikage excitedly slammed his palm onto the table, shattering it, and the documents on the table scattered all over the floor.Full novel: Naruto: Legacy of the Eight Tails — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

“Raikage-sama, please don’t keep smashing the table; this is the third one you’ve destroyed this month!”

The acting secretary, Hilda, helplessly gathered the documents that had been scattered everywhere by the Raikage’s slap.

“I guarantee it won’t happen next time!”

The Third Raikage replied casually.

“You said the same thing last time!”

Hilda muttered to herself in her heart.

She then piled the documents aside and, under the urging gaze of the Third Raikage, continued reading.

“This battle report says that Ai and Ling defeated the team sent by Konoha to intercept them, which was led by someone named Minato Namikaze!”

“This Minato Namikaze can use a Space-Time Ninjutsu that is similar to our Heavenly Sending Technique!”

“However, his offensive methods are slightly weak and cannot directly break through the Raikage-sama clone created by Ling!”

“He is assessed as weak Kage-level, and at nineteen years old this year, he still has a lot of room for improvement!”

“Furthermore, this battle report requests that you, Raikage-sama, send another batch of Ninja to support the front lines!”

“Konoha is truly full of talent; no sooner has the White Fang of Konoha died than a Minato Namikaze has emerged!”

“As for the request for Ninja support, it is approved.

Draft seventy Jonin, one hundred Special Jonin, seven hundred Chunin, and fifteen hundred Genin from the Village!”

“Raikage-sama, if we send so many people out, won’t the Village’s defense be a bit weak?”

Hilda asked with some concern.

“It’s fine.

As long as I am in the Village, no matter how many enemies come, they will never succeed in invading!”

“By the way, how is the sealing of the Two-Tails Jinchuriki going?”

The Third Raikage asked about the status of the Two-Tails sealing.

“The Two-Tails has already been sealed within Nii Yugito.

Nii Yugito has a stable personality, and there is no risk of a rampage for the time being!”

“Good, cultivate the Two-Tails Jinchuriki well so that she can reconcile with the Two-Tails as soon as possible!”

The Third Raikage nodded.

As for the Hidden Cloud Village Ninja army, after the Third Raikage issued the order, they were already fully equipped and ready to depart at any time!

“For our Village to become stronger!

Fight!”

“Fight!

Fight!”

The Ninja below were all battle maniacs, and compared to the Ninja of other Villages, they seemed a size larger!

This might be related to the Hidden Cloud Village’s love for training.

After shouting the slogan, the Hidden Cloud Village Ninja quickly rushed towards the border where Ye Yue Ling and the others were stationed!

As for Ye Yue Ling’s side:

“Big brother, don’t rush to go deep.

The vanguard unit only had thirty Jonin and three hundred Chunin.

As for Genin, they were not qualified to be in the vanguard unit; they would easily hold them back!

After some thought, Yezhue Ai also agreed that they should not underestimate the enemy or advance rashly.

Even without the White Fang, Konoha still had the Sannin and the Hokage.

“Fine, then we will not go any deeper.

We will camp and rest for a while, waiting for the main force to support us!”

During the time the battle report reached the Village, Ye Yue Ling and Yezhue Ai had advanced quite a bit further towards the border.

Now, they were only a wall away from entering the Land of Fire!

The Ninja on the wall tried to use the terrain advantage to launch Ninjutsu attacks against Ye Yue Ling and the others, but they were subdued by a single Tailed Beast Ball from Ye Yue Ling and dared not provoke them again.

“Hiruzen, is this the young man you said would absolutely not fail?”

“When I said earlier that Minato Namikaze was too young to lead a team alone, you didn’t believe me.

Now that he has returned with a defeated and battered force, was I wrong?”

Danzo Shimura mocked Hiruzen Sarutobi.

“Danzo, I have already called Minato over.

I will ask him about the specific details.”

Hiruzen Sarutobi replied while smoking.

“Hiruzen, let’s bring Minato Namikaze into our Root.

I can teach him how to become an excellent Ninja!”

“Danzo, your Root is merely a tool for your power; don’t think about harming young people.”

“Hiruzen, only by letting Minato Namikaze enter my Root can he…”

“Danzo, I am the Hokage!”

Hiruzen Sarutobi slammed the table and shouted angrily at Danzo!

“Hiruzen, you will regret this!”

Danzo left the Hokage Office in resentment.

With a bang, the door was slammed shut by Danzo Shimura.

Hiruzen Sarutobi slumped in his chair, looking at the sky and puffing on his pipe.

“Hokage-sama!”

I don’t know how much time had passed, but Minato Namikaze pushed open the door of the Hokage Office, knelt on one knee, and saluted Hiruzen Sarutobi.

“It’s Minato, sit down!”

Hiruzen Sarutobi put away his melancholy, smiled, pulled out a chair from the side, and let Minato Namikaze sit down.

“Yes, Hokage-sama!”

“Minato, tell me why you failed.”

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Minato.

In fact, he didn’t quite understand why Minato Namikaze had failed.

Minato Namikaze had the fastest speed, and in terms of raw strength, he was not far behind even the Sannin!

“Could it be that the Third Raikage went out himself?”

Hiruzen Sarutobi thought to himself.

“Hokage-sama, the Hidden Cloud Village dispatched the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, as well as the Third Raikage’s son, Yezhue Ai!”

“And this Eight-Tails Jinchuriki can use a type of Clone Technique called Ink Clone: Simulation, which can simulate other Ninja!”

Moreover, these clones do not disappear when attacked; even if their bodies are pierced through, they can still continue to act!”

“And I suspect that this clone is controlled by the main body, because when the clones were attacking me, the Eight-Tails main body curled itself up!”

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn’t react much when he heard about the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, but when he heard that the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki had summoned two Third Raikage clones, he couldn’t sit still for a moment!

“What?

Third Raikage clones?

They can use the original’s skills, and can even be controlled by themselves?”

Hiruzen Sarutobi’s pipe fell to the ground, but he didn’t have time to pay attention to it because this matter was simply too outrageous!

He had never heard of any generation of Eight-Tails Jinchuriki having such a skill; this was simply a god-tier skill!

“Minato, you just said they could continue acting even after being pierced through; does that mean you pierced through this clone, right?”

Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly thought of what Minato had said earlier about them being able to continue acting after being pierced, so he asked immediately.

“Yes, Hokage-sama.

I used a dozen Rasengan, and it took a final Rasengan with a lot of Chakra to blow a big hole in him!”

The Third Hokage breathed a sigh of relief.

If Minato Namikaze could pierce through it, it meant that the physical attributes were at most inherited at thirty percent; otherwise, Minato Namikaze wouldn’t even have been able to break through the defense.

“Minato, next time you can try attacking the clone’s head.

The head is likely the fatal point of this clone because it needs to be controlled, which inevitably involves the head!”

“Hokage-sama, I thought of that too.

But even so, the head is not easy to attack.

The main reason I was able to blow a big hole in it was that it wanted me to waste Chakra!”

Minato Namikaze shook his head helplessly.

“Minato, I have a general understanding.

You continue to fight against the Hidden Cloud Village!

I will have Tsunade come to help you defend against the Hidden Cloud Village!”

“Hokage-sama, what about the Hidden Sand Village?”

“The Kazekage of the Hidden Sand Village has most likely died.

Now, the Hidden Sand Village is just projecting its conflicts outward, wanting to offset the news of the Third Kazekage’s death!”

“We have defended for a long time, and the Hidden Sand Village has already started to have internal problems.

Their offensive power is not as great as before, so it doesn’t matter if Tsunade leaves!”

The Third Hokage saw things very clearly.

The Hidden Sand Village was indeed on the verge of collapse.

If they continued to fight, the already few Ninja of the Hidden Sand Village would be further reduced, and they might even fall out of the Five Great Ninja Villages!

“Minato, I will send a message to Tsunade to have her return to the Village as soon as possible.

You wait for her to return, then go to the Hidden Cloud battlefield together!”

“Yes, Hokage-sama!”
