Chapter 441

In the battle, the Eight-Tails' Tailed Beast Bomb broke the Third Raikage's absolute defense and pierced through the Third Raikage's body.

At the same time, the Third Raikage's "strongest spear" also cut off one of the Eight-Tails' horns.

After exhausting all his efforts to seal the Eight-Tails again, Kumogakure also fell into a state of weak combat power.

And this is the main reason why the Third Raikage's injuries have not healed at this moment, and Kumogakure has no intention of getting involved in the Ninja World war.

Otherwise, with Kumogakure's combative style, it would be impossible to be so low-key at this time.

Regarding the turmoil in the Ninja World, the Third Raikage had no interest in understanding it.

At present, the primary major event for Kumogakure is not planning how to expand, but to recuperate.

Even if the Ninja World is in a mess, the Third Raikage does not think that anyone can threaten Kumogakure now.

This is not the Third Raikage being arrogant, but from the perspective of Kumogakure, the situation is indeed so.

Although the geographical location of the Land of Lightning is not as superior as the Land of Water, it is not a little bit better than the Land of Wind.

First of all, the Great Nations that the Rain ninjas are counterattacking are the Land of Wind, the Land of Earth, and the Land of Fire, and it has nothing to do with the Land of Lightning.

Secondly, the several neighbors of the Land of Lightning at present cannot launch a war against the Land of Lightning at this time.

·· Seeking flowers ·· ··

Sunagakure in the Land of Wind, thousands of miles away, has absolutely no space or any possibility of invading the Land of Lightning.

The three neighbors of Kumogakure in the Land of Lightning are Kirigakure in the Land of Water across the sea, Iwagakure in the Land of Earth to the north, and Konoha in the Land of Fire to the west.

And these neighbors all have their own reasons for not threatening Kumogakure now.

First of all, the one most likely to launch a war against Kumogakure is Iwagakure; the Third Raikage also knows that this old thing Onoki is ambitious, and in recent years, Iwagakure's strength has risen quite a bit, looking full of threats.

But now, the Land of Earth is caught in the war against the Rain ninjas, and Onoki cannot open two-line operations at the same time.

You must know that Hanzo of the Salamander, who has the title of "Demigod of the Ninja World," is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

If he doesn't invade the Land of Earth, Onoki should burn high incense; how could Iwagakure still take the initiative to invade the Land of Lightning?

Secondly, it is Konoha, which is close to the Land of Lightning and borders it.

Konoha does indeed have the strength to invade the Land of Lightning.

But for one thing, Konoha has always been known for not actively launching wars.

For another, after the Second Hokage and the Second Raikage both fell, Kumogakure and Konoha have always concluded an alliance; under the premise of the alliance, Konoha will never easily take action against Kumogakure.

Finally, it is Kirigakure across the sea.

Kirigakure has been hidden in the Ninja World for more than ten years, and Kirigakure, which has always had an extremely transparent sense of existence, actively launching a war has a probability as low as negligible; what's more, Kumogakure and Kirigakure have no grievances in the past and no grudges in the recent days; the Third Raikage thinks it is impossible for Kirigakure to actively take action against Kumogakure.

It is precisely because of the above conditions that the Third Raikage feels that Kumogakure is safe and secure; plus Kumogakure is now in a state of weakness, he naturally has no need to actively stir up trouble in the Ninja World.

So he flatly rejected the alliance request proposed by Kirigakure.

Yes, the content of the letter sent by Momochi Zabuza was to invite Kumogakure to form an alliance and conduct a series of trades.

And for Kumogakure, at this time, they neither need an alliance to improve combat power, nor do they need Kirigakure's war material trade.

Therefore, the Third Raikage naturally chose to reject Kirigakure's request directly.

In short, Kumogakure's current state is to bury its head in development and restore combat power.

Kumogakure will not actively get involved in any dangerous and unnecessary things.

Thinking of this, the Third Raikage then threw the intelligence of the war between the Rain ninjas and the Rock ninjas into the trash can.
