====================

Finding Kumogakure was easier than I thought because they are settled where the mountains are the highest in the country...

Talk about a hidden village, the Raikage's office is built inside of the biggest mountain.

It's just difficult to reach if you are on foot because of how scarce the roads are to reach Kumogakure and how arduous they are to take.

But if like me you can fly, or more like propel, in the sky then it's a piece of cake.

Now, before assaulting them without warning I want to infiltrate the place and find some shinobi that either holds a Kekkei Genkai or use interesting techniques that I could learn by using Suijin.

The perks of absorbing the Third Raikage was that I also got his memories... And as a Kage he knows every secret of his village.

'I can get my hands on three different Kekkei Genkai here... Two that I knew about, albeit one is only a little, and the third one isn't in the knowledge I have from the canon'

There is also the 'Heavenly Transfer Technique' which can transport objects anywhere at the speed of light at a low chakra cost.

And lastly, I have to find the Two-Tails Jinchūriki who may not be the same I saw within A's memories because I didn't even feel Matatabi's chakra around the village.

'Let's find the Jinchūriki's whereabouts first and then assassinate each interesting shinobi before enjoying the show that 'Impure World Reincarnation' will give me' I thought as I was moving around the village without anyone noticing

I knew from the memories that knowledge about their Jinchūriki was accessible somewhere within the Raikage Office, so I decided to go there first.

'I wonder if the Fourth Raikage is A... I mean, the same as in the canon'

Each Raikage from the First to the Fourth was called A and that makes it difficult to talk about one of them.

But I knew that the Fourth was the Third Raikage' son and he should only be 18 years old right now which would make him the youngest Kage currently alive.

'He shouldn't be that strong for now... I only remember him being active during the Third Shinobi War in the canon' I thought as I knew that he faced Minato in the future

I'm convinced that they wouldn't join this war to prepare for the post-war and use underhanded methods the moment they could.

I knew that in the canon, they kidnapped Kushina and even killed Hizashi because of their greed towards the Byakugan... That will not be the case since I am here.

Using 'Hiding in Surface Technique' I moved into the office searching for the Raikage's attendant that should know what I am looking for.

And I found him, working on a ton of paperwork while the Raikage, which was A like in the canon, was doing some workout inside what should have been his office.

'This guy should be Dodai... Perfect' I thought as I sneaked around him

I felt three ANBU hiding around who used the 'Hiding with Camouflage Technique' so I had to take care of them before f*cking with Dodai's mind.

I used Wood Release to quickly generate vines that completely locked up the three of them as they were completely visible thanks to my Dōjutsu.

They will die of suffocation and will be absorbed by the vines to give me new Triffid seeds once I'm done with Dodai.

Before Dodai could react, I appeared in front of him and used Kunitokotachi as he looked right into my eyes when he sensed me.

A rift-like shadow emerged from me marking the success of my technique.

"Now, tell me everything about the Two-Tails." I whispered as he could only do as I asked inside this space while time was stopped outside

"Yes." he replied like a puppet before adding "The Two-Tails Jinchūriki is currently under heavy training on the Island Turtle and she started being one some months ago."

'I had a hunch that it was the case anyway' I thought before asking "Who is she? And what kind of training?"

Still looking completely dazed, he replied "She is a girl of two years old named Yugito Nii. Her training consists of making her capable of transforming into the beast by making her lose her mind before forcing her to become sane again by using some... Forceful methods."

'Letting the beast take control over her by making her an emotional mess and then using someone who can control the beast to let her regain sanity while in this state uh' I thought as he explained some more

Because I had all the time I wanted I asked "Now, what are your plans for the 2nd Shinobi World War?"

Still robotically, he replied "We planned to let the other village fight among themselves as we prepare more forces, and the Raikage wanted to assault the Land of Fire when they will be at their lowest."

"Pfhahaha! The hot-headed Fourth Raikage wants his revenge against Konoha because I killed his father? They started assaulting an allied force of Konoha first!" I said out loud while Dodai didn't even react to anything I said

"If he wants to see his father then I shall let him die by his hands... And I know what I will do with you." I said as I looked right into the eyes of Dodai and laid my hand on his head

My left eye technique allows me complete control over my target reality... Making him my loyal subordinate by force is not hard.

I know that he possesses a form of Lava Release which consists of vulcanized rubber, but this one doesn't interest me as I can already make some rubber myself with my Wood Release.

So I will make him the Fifth Raikage once the current Raikage dies... He's a skilled shinobi that taught the Fourth some Taijutsu but still not strong enough as a Kage.

Making him stronger is possible, teaching him the Lightning Release Chakra Mode that was only taught to the Third Raikage family should already make him a fiercer opponent.

I will also leave a clone of mine as a parasite that would allow him to use each basic nature element with greater control and give him enough chakra to be worthy of the Kage title.

Now that I'm done with him, I will go look for the different Kekkei Genkai users whose current location is now in my hands.

'The first one will be any of the Storm Release users' I thought as I stopped the technique and made three clones acting as the ANBU while Dodai was working like nothing happened

One of the ANBU here was using this release so I didn't miss the opportunity and loosened the vines the moment they crushed him to death so I could use Suijin on him.

'I will digest that once I have everything...' I thought before leaving the office, for now, to find my next target

I won't bother fighting any of them when I can assassinate them.

So I moved, still hidden from anyone, crossing multiples mountains that were surrounded by buildings connected by bridges, toward the house of my next target.

Once I was near his house and only when I felt a presence inside, I disguised myself into one of the ANBU I killed and appeared in the living room while deliberately indicating my presence.

A middle-aged man with green hair was now facing me and asked "What does an ANBU need from me?" while he put his book down

"Dodai-sama asked me to give you this." I replied as I took out a scroll that, by looking, was only containing some writing

He motioned his hands, telling me to give it to him so I threw the scroll and waited for him to open it.

When he did, something came out of the scroll and leaped towards his face while grabbing the back of his head, before tentacles wrapped his arms and legs making him unable to move or mutter a single sound.

What I used was another chimera I created along with the Triffids that, unlike them, could be easily grown.

It was heavily inspired by the Facehugger, although I didn't go as far as implanting a newborn inside the victim, but mostly for the immobilizing aspect.

'I'm glad I loved the Alien movies, the Xenomorph race gave me interesting ideas' I thought as the poor man got his head crushed

Once he died, the chimera withered until nothing was left because it achieved his job.

I moved my hand on the dead body torso and used Suijin, making him transform into the same weird mass of liquid energy that gets absorbed by my right eye.

What this guy had as a Kekkei Genkai was the Typhoon Release, an extremely powerful and devastating release that could generate terrible weather calamity.

The downsides were the extreme control over your chakra you needed, as well as the inability to use it with allies in the surrounding because of the radius and how uncontrollable it becomes once any technique is used.

'Gotta catch'em all I guess' I thought as I got my second Kekkei from Kumogakure

The last one was a bit trickier because it was used by a criminal and was to be sentenced to death by the Third Raikage... Which didn't happen yet because I killed him.

So I left the house and moved into the lowest parts of the village where the prison was located and searched for the most isolated and guarded cell.

I could pass through walls without being detected and when I was in front of the right cell the five guards didn't sense me at all, but I saw an old man whose eyes were completely white from blindness looking right where I was.

'I got sensed by a blind old man?' I thought as I was impressed by his perception

I put a silencing tag to not let any sound leave the room and used 'Boil Release: Skilled Mist Technique' which didn't make any sound as the ceiling was getting filled.

The guards realized too late that they were now inside a highly acidic mist that melted their bodies.

They started panicking and tried to leave by opening the door but I made a crystal wall to block every exit.

They started by losing their skin, eyes, and tongue before losing their muscles and bones until they became nothing but a boiled mess.

Not even blood was noticeable as it was also melted until nothing was left.

I then got rid of the mist once they all died and glanced at the old man who was far enough in his cell to not be affected.

"You got quite the terrifying technique, kid." the old man said with a surprisingly low voice

"And you got quite the sense without your vision." I replied as I made wood wrap around him to not let him use any technique

"I can't leave..?" the old man contemplated as he didn't expect the wood to absorb his chakra, nullifying his abilities

"Of course I came prepared against someone like you who could leave when he wants." I said as I was now right in front of him

This old blind man was using Light Release, a terrifying release combined with Taijutsu.

He was famed as the 'Blinding Fist' because he was capable of producing a light that would make anyone visionless, Dōjutsu included, while fighting in close combat and moving at nearly the speed of light... Limited by the human body.

He could also make straight projectiles that move with the speed of light or completely reflect the light around him to make him invisible to the eyes.

Overall, it made a remarkably strong Release that should have disappeared forever if he was executed like intended by the Third Raikage.

"You should thank me, old man, you died later than planned thanks to me." I said before crushing him as I like to do

"Suijin." I said as I absorbed his body

'Aaah... Now it's time' I thought as I took the opportunity of being isolated from the outside to perform the 'Impure World Reincarnation'

I had three sacrifices ready to be used within Shiromari and started writing the seal required for the rituals on the ground.

Once done, I performed the technique and the three sacrifices screamed from the pain as dust and ash covered their body before transforming into the Third Raikage, Kinkaku, and Ginkaku.

"What the- Why am I here?" the Third Raikage said before staring at me angrily

I knew that he wanted to attack me but he couldn't as my control over them was excellent and I also perfected the technique to give them a strength nearing the one they had while being alive.

I then looked at the brothers and saw that they were hugging each other happily before shifting their gaze to me and realizing who I was.

Their expression suddenly became one of terror as they fell on their butt and shivered from fear.

"I'm glad to see both of you again too." I said with a smirk as the Third looked to his side only to become even more enraged

the two bastards are here too! You traitors stole the treasured tools and killed the Second Raikage!" he yelled, still unable to move

"All of you stay calm and listen." I ordered, making them shift their gaze on me while they lost any emotion on their face

"I want you to wreak havoc in this village... Kill every shinobi you meet that are Chūnin or more while focusing the oldest, destroy as many important buildings you can, I don't care." I said before focusing on A, adding "And you... You are tasked to kill the Fourth Raikage, alright?"

He nodded even if he didn't want to and the three of them left the prison to do as I said.

My control allows me to make them unable to communicate so they can't give information to the enemies.

However, they are still feeling everything in their mind. This means that when A will B killing his son A, E will realize what I made him do and I can also C what the reincarnated R seeing.

...Anyway, I also left the underground, and when I barely saw the exterior I could see parts of the building already destroyed with a huge claw mark on the wall.

The brothers were forced to fight while using their bestial forms with six tails each so the lack of the four treasured tools doesn't matter.

I decided to move high into the sky to have a better view of the upcoming fight between the two Raikage.

"Why are you doing this father?" a young man with dark skin and blond hair combed back said as a lightning cloak surrounded him

The surrounding was already demolished, many shinobi were already dead from being pierced by the Third Raikage 'Hell Stab' or had their head turned in an unnatural way.

The Third was using his chakra cloak as well and without answering, he vanished from the spot before stabbing the Fourth.

He was barely able to block the stab and had his left arms bones broken from the blow, before using his other arm's elbow to strike his father.

His blow landed on his father's head but what surprised him was how the head got blown only to slowly reconstruct itself.

The more they exchanged blows, the more the Fourth knew he didn't have any chance to beat his father.

It was after all too soon for him, being only 18 years old while being against his father that died at his peak, the difference in strength and speed is huge.

And nobody could help him because both were too fast to follow any of their movements without using a Dōjutsu.

His father once again disappeared from the spot and landed yet another stab at his son's still functional arm, then another one on the flank, knee, and finally right in the back of the neck making him fall unconscious after playing with him for a while.

It was a one-sided beating.

The Third was now slowly approaching his unconscious son to land the finishing blow, but many shinobi started to move toward him so they could defend their Kage.

I knew that they wanted to buy some time and let the Fourth teleport thanks to the 'Heavenly Transfer Technique' so I decided to move where the user was and quickly killed him from behind by piercing his heart with my sword.

It was an old man who always stayed under the protection of the current Raikage... Who was unconscious so I was able to kill him without anyone noticing.

I then watched the Third kill every single Jōnin that tried to stop him, by moving swiftly between them and landing some 10/10 lariat.

Once everyone in the surrounding was dead, he moved back where the Fourth was, crouched, and used his 'Hell Stab' right into his son's heart.

The Third was inwardly crying before I appeared in front of him and without giving him time for grievance, I used Suijin on his son.

I then looked at the Third Raikage and said "What? You expected me to let you mourn more than a second? One second, it's already too long for someone like you."

I gave him the ability to express himself again and tears surged from his eyes as he said "You bastard...I will never forgive you, never!" while he had the angriest expression I ever saw

"Pft, what can you do? You are dead already and only I can revive you... Next time, think twice before assaulting a whole village, even if there won't be a next time." I said as I was chuckling right in front of him

"Anyway, judging by the multiple explosions that started around the village, I'm sure that the twins are doing their work nicely.

I asked the Third to destroy and look for more shinobi to kill as I suppressed his emotions before propelling myself toward the sky once more.

After several hours of destruction done by the three reincarnated shinobi, I decided to call them back and canceled the technique.

'Hmm... They lost around 40% of their shinobi, most of the vital buildings and another Raikage' I thought as I saw how bad the village looked from the sky

Now, Dodai will become the Fifth Raikage and never attempt to harm Konoha as long as he is the leader.

It will take years before they can claim to be a member of the Five Great Shinobi Countries once more... And their leader will always be loyal to me.

It's useless to hide the fact that I was the one who did this behind the scene because they know that I killed their Third Raikage and that the body disappeared too.

What if they want vengeance? They won't try anything under Dodai's influence and if they ever successfully attempt a coup d'état I would be instantly informed and will take care of them once and for all.

But what they feel about me isn't simply hatred, it's mostly fear now.

I can finally leave and look for the Island Turtle to get my third Tailed-Beast chakra, without forgetting to digest what I absorbed today.
