Chapter 675: Target Kumogakure???

Chapter 675: Target Kumogakure???

'However, there is one big problem!'

As Ay analyzed calmly, he discovered some anomalies. He thought, 'There is no question about the fact that Konoha has schemed something. Otherwise, we wouldn't have learnt about Fujin leaving Konoha, let alone about where he was heading. Their real scheme should be what is giving me this bad feeling. However, what could their scheme be?'

Immediately, Raikage recalled two things. The first was him telling Darui to protect the village while he wasn't there. The second was the Fuinjutsu Grandmaster saying that there was one unknown seal among the explosive seals.

His eyes widened in shock as he realized, 'Don't tell me! Did those bastards actually do this to lure me out? Is Konoha brave enough to launch an attack on Kumogakure? Besides, even without me and Bee, Kumogakure is still very strong. They wouldn't be ab...'

His eyes widened even more as he recalled Jiraiya's attack on the mine that killed over 250 Kumo ninjas! He thought, 'Even though the village is strong, without me and Bee, we won't be able to stop their rank S ninjas easily. What if their plan is just to make a large attack and retreat? If we're caught off guard, Kumo might lose hundreds of ninjas.'

He glanced in the direction of the Land of Fire and wondered, 'Does Konoha really want to start a war right now?'

Bee noticed Ay's change in mood. He became serious and asked, "What is it?"

With a grim expression, Ay answered, "I suspect that this might have been a scheme to lure me and you here. Konoha might be planning to make a move against our village. While we're hunting Fujin, they might have sent the Sannin to attack Kumogakure with their large summons."

The eyes of all 7 Kumo ninjas widened in disbelief. One of them exclaimed, "That's impossible! Konoha is known for not starting wars! They wouldn't make the first move!"

Ay replied, "That's why they might be able to catch us off guard. Inform Mabui. Ask her to increase the defenses of the village. Until we return, the village has to be on the highest alert."

Minutes later, Mabui and Darui received Ay's message. Both became tense. Darui muttered, "Boss thinks that Konoha wants to surprise attack our village with their summoned animals. However, would Konoha really launch a war?"

Darui didn't see Konoha with as much suspicion as Ay. He could believe that Konoha might try to secretly assassinate the Fourth Raikage but didn't think that Konoha would start a war without any provocation.

Mabui said, "I'm not sure either. However, there is no question that something very fishy is happening. We need to be on guard."

Darui nodded and said, "Yes. If Konoha wants to do a surprise attack on us, then they won't bring too many troops since we would find them. Most likely, only their rank S ninjas would make a move and attack the village with large-scale attacks. Against such tactics, we'll suffer if our ninjas are gathered together. Hmm..."

Darui thought for a bit and said, "Without Boss here, we'll take the safe approach. Deploy the barrier team on the walls and have them create a barrier to surround the village. Tell them to extend the barrier underground as well in case Orochimaru attacks us.

In the headquarters inside the base, Dodai sat calmly while recalling the message he received from Mabui. He thought, 'To think that Konoha might make a move against us. Their strength should have already recovered. As we suspected, they won't take the humiliation we inflicted upon them a decade ago too kindly. We might soon be in another Great War...'

He turned his gaze outside the headquarters and activated his chakra field. He thought, 'Fortunately, we're very well prepared. If Konoha thinks that they have any chance of a swift victory against us, they're badly mistaken!'

As Dodai was thinking that, Fujin reached the base. He looked at his Wind Cloak and thought, 'Just 6% remaining...'

The Wind Cloak separated from him and began changing its shape once again. This time, instead of transforming into the Wind Domain, it took the form of a human and transformed into a Wind Clone! He chuckled and said, "Alright, I'll have some fun."

This was the second method Fujin created to use the leftover chakra in the Wind Domain. Fujin could transform it into a Wind Clone and keep it with himself until he recovered his chakra. This way, if someone attacked him while he was still recovering his chakra, he could recreate the Wind Domain.

Of course, there was no need for anyone to guard him now. So, Fujin just let his Wind Clone go to cause some havoc and leave a few nightmares in the Land of Lightning.

As for Fujin, he continued looking at the base and muttered, "Here goes nothing..."
