Alexander and his party arrived at the scene where the battle was going on. Saying it was bloody was be an understatement.
Alexander saw a single man fighting thousands of ninjas. But the exhaustion was clear on his face now. He looked like he would fall down any minute.
"That is the third Raikage, what is going on here?" Shisui recognized the man.
"Oh, let's ask him then."
Alexander jumped beside the third Raikage who was surrounded by his enemies from all sides.
Everyone stopped for a second due to his sudden appearance. "Well, hello everyone. I need you all to stop fighting." He ordered them.
"Who are you to order us? We only take orders from Hokage/Tsuchikage" A few Shinobi voiced.
"Hmm, good. But I was not asking."
Alexander waved his hand and huge cages made of metal fell from the sky over the ten thousand Shinobi.
"Stay silent while you're in it. The more you speak the more cramped it will become." He warned them.
Obviously, they were on an adrenalin rush and didn't think from the head and continued shouting. But after a while, the cages got so cramped that none of them had space to even turn. They finally understood the trouble they were in and finally stopped speaking.
"Good, now you tell me why you were here fighting alone?" He asked looking at Raikage(His name is just the letter 'A'. It might get confusing if I use it so I'm going to stick with Raikage.).
Raikage was very exhausted but he still had his proud act going, "Who are you?"
"Oh, yeah, I am Alexander Maxim Universe, you see there, those guys are with me."
Raikage looked where he pointed and saw a man, two kids, and a few animals waving at him.
"Those are actually the tailed beasts. I go by the name Sage of Beasts too. Whichever you want to use." He added.
"So you're the guy that's making so much noise these days? What do you want from me?" Raikage asked.
"Well, I saved your life, so you're welcome first of all. Second, aren't you the Raikage of Kumogakure? Then you have the authority to release the tailed beasts. I need you to do that." He politely told him.
"And why would I do that? We bought them from Hashirama fair and square. They are Kumogakure's property." Raikage blurted.
"What will you do once you have all the tailed beasts?" Raikage asked in defeat.
"Give them a home and protection. They won't become a tool of war ever again. No one will ever own them." Alexander replied.
Raikage sighed and nodded, "Okay, I agree to give you the two-tails and eight tails. But you must vow that their Jinchuriki will not die."
"I can promise that. So, care to tell me why you are here alone?" He asked again.
"I wasn't initially. I had my army with me but then Iwagakure and Konoha's Shinobi jointly attacked. They didn't even let us retreat and tried to kill everyone so I stayed behind to stop them. It had been 3 days and I was near death due to exhaustion." Raikage briefed him.
"Ah, such brave Shinobi and great villages that won't even stop from attacking a retreating army. You all know no ethics, it seems. Well, I declare this war over. If anybody wants to fight then find me. But do that at your own risk." He warned them and at the same time sent out a huge amount of natural energy (to Alexander, Chakra is Force but Force is natural energy, so what Alexander has been using from the start was Natural energy).
The area within a few hundred kilometers was swept with his Natural Energy. It was suppressing people's body's chakra and showing who the dominant one was.
The tailed beasts were unharmed with it as they were the embodiment of natural energy. To them, Alexander's Natural energy release was like a nice hot bath after a long day of work.
But for those who don't know about Natural energy and didn't know how to use it, it felt like their bodies became heavy suddenly.
Except for Jiraiya. He felt the surge in Natural Energy around him. He was on his way back to Konoha with Sakumo and Shikaku because they weren't able to stop their army from attacking the Raikage and didn't know who was pulling the strings. They wanted to tell Hokage about this.
Killing the Raikage would just sow the seeds of hatred in Kumogakure for Konoha and lead to more conflicts in the future.
"What is this? I feel like I am deep underwater," Sakumo exclaimed.
"It's Senjutsu, Natural energy. Something happened at the battle site. Only I can sense Natural energy among us. You two go back to Konoha and report everything. I will go and see what is going on." Jiraiya advised them.
"*Sigh* What a drag, good luck, Lord Jiraiya," Shikaku wished him.
They decided on this plan and Jiraiya was quickly on his way back to the battlefield at full speed.
