Yamanaka Kei frowned, recalling the results of his wide-range sensory perception when he fought Dotai.
At that time, the Third Raikage and his son were the first to rush towards Dotai's residence.
Killer Bee's movements were only slightly slower than the two.
In addition, several Cloud Village experts moved towards Dotai's residence after hearing the commotion of the battle.
The key was that he didn't find any particularly strong individuals around Killer Bee.

Or rather, there were no assassins who could pose a threat to Killer Bee.
Then this...
Jinchuriki rampage?
Why?
Yamanaka Kei was very sure that there was no record in his memory of the Eight Tails Gyuki going berserk after Killer Bee became a Jinchuriki.
And in the original work, during the Third Shinobi World War, Killer Bee was already able to use the power of the Eight Tails very well, and cooperated with the future Fourth Raikage to fight Namikaze Minato.
To achieve this, the body must first adapt to the power of the Tailed Beast.
Then, victory must be achieved in the fight against the Tailed Beast, and finally, reconciliation with the Tailed Beast must be completed.
None of this can be accomplished overnight.
Even Naruto, the protagonist blessed by fate, only initially adapted to the power of the Nine Tails' four tails after training with Jiraiya for three years.
Even if the Eight Tails is not as strong as the Nine Tails, its strength should not be underestimated.
Based on this.
During this period, Killer Bee should at least have initially allowed his body to adapt to the power of the Eight Tails, and had initial communication with the Eight Tails.
If that's the case, why would he suddenly go berserk?
Was he schemed against like the previous Jinchuriki, Buru Bi?
"What exactly is going on?"
The Third Raikage's expression was heavy, his arms crossed in front of his chest, and his imposing aura made many ninjas around him tremble.
"Lord Raikage, Killer Bee-sama showed no abnormalities before tonight. He was even preparing to support Dotai-senpai, but for some reason, he sprained his ankle as soon as he went out, and hit his head on the eaves when jumping towards the roof..."
The Anbu responsible for guarding Killer Bee answered the Third Raikage's question tremblingly.
Speaking of tonight's experience.
The expression on his face under the mask was extremely strange.
Spraining his ankle when going out was one thing, wanting to jump on the roof to rush over but hitting his head on the eaves, he could also consider it a sequelae of the sprained ankle.
But after landing, he staggered and fell into the stinky ditch.
Before he could get up, a large piece of brick fell from the roof that had just been broken, and smashed him into the stinky ditch, forcing him to eat a mouthful of sludge...
In less than three minutes.
Events that would normally be talked about for a long time happened continuously without interruption.
The final result was...
The Eight Tails went berserk.
Then, after a lot of fuss, just as the Third Raikage and others arrived and the Jinchuriki was about to lose consciousness, the Eight Tails inexplicably retreated.
"..."
Third Raikage A glared at the Anbu Ninja beside him.
Was this really not a joke?
How could a person be so plagued by bad luck?
Moreover, it inexplicably started to go berserk, and then inexplicably ended after he arrived. Was this reasonable?
Could it be that the Eight Tails was afraid of being beaten by him?
Was that possible?
That guy was a stubborn mule.
Even when he fought it to exhaustion and it was eventually sealed, it never yielded.
"I think I understand..."
Yamanaka Kei perked up his ears, listening to the faint conversation between the Third Raikage and his Anbu subordinates coming from the large pit, and quietly turned off the effect of the black entry [Unlucky Conflict].
Unlucky Conflict (Black): When the host actively activates the entry, within the range of perception, once someone issues a 1V1 invitation, the other party will definitely accept the challenge. All fate-related entry effects of both sides of the battle disappear, and the states of Plagued by Bad Luck and Beset by Misfortune are triggered. The probability of mistakes, illness, misfortune, and accidents are greatly increased, and the probability of injury and death are greatly increased.
During this period, the effect of Unlucky Conflict had been active.
It was just that he had never invited anyone to 1V1, nor had anyone said such a thing to him.
Fearing exposure, he had never dared to use large-scale perception ninjutsu.
Who would have thought...
Tsk~
Killer Bee actually won the lottery!
This guy, most likely, was habitually trash-talking with the Eight Tails in his body while preparing to support Dotai.
As a result...
A tragedy occurred.
"Haa..."
The Third Raikage's face was extremely dark, and he barely suppressed the violent emotions in his heart.
He glanced at Dotai, who was being carried on a stretcher followed by more than a dozen barefooted ninja, and asked in a deep voice.
"Are there any results?"
"No, the enemy has likely retreated completely."
"Your suspected target."
"At first, I thought it was Konoha. After all, whether it was my position or the opponent's swordsmanship and ninjutsu, they seemed to match the characteristics of Konoha ninjas. But, it's not Konoha."
"Speak plainly."
The Third Raikage frowned slightly, seeing Dotai still being secretive.
If this guy hadn't just been attacked and suffered some irreversible injuries, he would have lost his temper on the spot.
What time is it? Can't he speak more straightforwardly?
"Cough... Our village's protective Barrier is divided into surface Barrier and underground Barrier. There aren't many ways to invade the Barrier without triggering an alarm."
"And just now, the Anbu Ninja also detected traces of Chakra from the Water Transformation Technique that hadn't completely dissipated at the broken water pipe underground."
"Currently, the Anbu are continuing to track the source along the traces."
Seeing that his leader was already getting impatient, Dotai quickly told all the known information.
"...Hidden Mist?"
A cold light flashed in the eyes of the Third Raikage A, and the suppressed powerful Lightning Release Chakra surged within him.
Including Redoi last night, a full ten assassinations!
Except for Dotai, who was strong enough to survive this deliberate assassination, everyone else had died.
If it weren't for Dotai's statement, based on the traces of Water Release, Fire Release, Earth Release, and Wind Release mixed everywhere at the scene, he would naturally suspect Konoha first.
But now, the most crucial evidence directly pointed to the Hidden Mist, which he had never taken to heart before!
Those traces and evidence placed on the surface seemed to be deliberately misleading.
And Killer Bee's inexplicable encounter also reminded him of Buru Bi's sudden rampage and madness back then.
No memory, no reason, and even after recalling, no clues could be found.
Hidden Mist!
Very good! Very good!
The matter of Buru Bi back then was also your doing in secret!
Faced with repeated provocations.
The Third Raikage A was extremely angry.
They, the Cloud Village, hadn't encountered such a large-scale assassination operation for many years.
"Since Hidden Mist wants to start a war! Then let it be war!"
Raikage A swept over the surrounding high-level officials who were already somewhat agitated and conveyed his will to everyone in a cold voice.
In his opinion, everything was clear now.
Hidden Mist would not admit their actions, and the inquiry sent out yesterday would not get the desired answer.
Since that's the case, then let Hidden Mist know with our fists the consequences of provoking us!
[Ding~ S-Rank Profession Mission 'Change Cloud Village's Strategic Objectives, Incite War with Another Country' Completed, Reward: Trait Draw Chance ×2, Trait Gift Chance ×1, Random White Trait Upgrade Chance ×1.]
The familiar system notification sounded.
Yamanaka Kei watched the Cloud Village ninjas responding with a bang from afar, secretly clicking his tongue in amazement.
Just a statement was enough for the system to determine that the mission was completed.
The Third Raikage's prestige must be the highest among all the Raikage!
Moreover...
Hidden Mist is going to explode this time!
With so many accusations thrown at them, I wonder if they can withstand it!
Hidden Mist: I'm so wronged!
