Chapter 231: A sudden change of Plot
The scene where half of Kurama single-handedly crushed a group of Tailed Beasts in the anime stunned many viewers.
And that was only half of Kurama, not the full beast.
From Kurama's various flashbacks, it's clear that while he didn't care for Shukaku, he often sought out the Eight-Tails for a fight.
As for the other Tailed Beasts, he mostly ignored them.
It seems that in Kurama's eyes, aside from the fairly strong Eight-Tails and the annoying Shukaku, the other Tailed Beasts were of little importance.
"The Third Raikage, huh?"
Nawaki scratched his head. "I've heard Orochimaru-sensei mention him before. He's supposed to be a powerful and tough opponent."
No kidding.
If your teacher ever faced him, he'd probably be at a complete loss.
If the Third Raikage hadn't been killed by the plot, Konoha's situation during the Third Shinobi War might have been even worse.
One thing Xin never understood was that if the Raikage was the most important person in the village, he would certainly be heavily protected.
The Raikage's escort team existed to protect the Raikage, right?
So why, after a raid in the Land of Earth, did the Raikage's escort leave first, forcing the Raikage to cover their retreat and eventually die from exhaustion?
If that's not a plot device, what is it?
If the Third Raikage had wanted to leave, even Ōnoki couldn't have stopped him. Just look at the speed of the Fourth Raikage, and you'll understand that if the Third Raikage wanted to go, almost no one could have stopped him.
For a man with such overwhelming power to die of exhaustion in the Land of Earth...
It's just like Tobirama Senju from Konoha, a man full of forbidden techniques and master of water release, dying while covering a retreat in the Land of Lightning.
It's even more absurd!
After Minato learned the Flying Thunder God Technique, he performed countless rear-guard actions.
Especially during the Third Shinobi War-there were more than anyone could count.
Yet Minato never died covering a retreat.
Of course, Minato's death was even more frustrating. He let his wife die, ignored his son, and pursued death to follow his wife, leaving poor Naruto to grow up in isolation and scorn.
"Is it because Lord Hanzō isn't strong enough? The Third Raikage..." Yahiko bowed his head, deeply contemplating Xin's words.
"Sir, please teach us ninjutsu. We want to become ninja."
Suddenly, Yahiko stood up and bowed deeply to Xin.
