"How's it going, Boss?"
Darui, who was working as a guard, walked over carrying a broadsword.
"I've already grasped the basics. The Internal Organ Enhancement Secret Jutsu from Woods Village is indeed extraordinary."
So said the Fourth Raikage.
In the past, rocks falling on his body might have caused pain inside his body, but now when boulders drop on him, his body feels no such pain anymore.
This means that the Internal Organ Enhancement Secret Jutsu from Woods Village is genuinely effective and has to some extent complemented his Lightning Style Chakra Mode.
"Looks like, next time you face the Gentle Fist of the Hyuga Clan, Boss, you won't need to worry much."
As a guard of the Raikage, Darui naturally knows the Fourth Raikage's inner stubbornness, and he's sincerely happy for the Raikage's strengthening.
However, the Fourth Raikage didn't let the enhancement of strength cloud his judgment.
He rationally stated, "No, we cannot yet determine whether Hyuga Ayane's Gentle Fist is useless against me."
"Hmm?"
"That woman is not so easily dealt with. Only by truly battling her will you understand how terrifying her Gentle Fist is. Unless the internal organs are refined into hard steel, it might be possible to defend against her Gentle Fist."
The Fourth Raikage's expression was serious.
"Ah, the Hyuga Clan is indeed a frightening existence..."
Seeing his Boss respond with such severity, Darui couldn't help but be secretly astonished, further escalating Hyuga Ayane's threat level.
At this moment, a figure appeared not far away, using Instantaneous Body Jutsu to hurry over.
It was another Jonin guard, C, who was adept in both Illusion and Medical Ninjutsu and was also a strong Perception-type Ninja.
"C, what's going on that you're in such a hurry?"
The Fourth Raikage saw that C had something urgent and temporarily paused the training.
"Lord Raikage, Mafui just sent someone over with something important to discuss with you. It seems it's a very urgent matter."
"Mafui?"
The Fourth Raikage raised an eyebrow.
After standing still in contemplation for a moment, the Fourth Raikage made a decision.
"Since that's the case, there's no choice. Darui, pack up the stuff."
"Yes, Boss."
Darui responded solemnly.
The Valley of Clouds and Lightning is part of Hidden Cloud's territory but is located in a very remote area, quite a distance from the Raikage Building.
After about half an hour, the Raikage led Darui and C, along with the Anbu Jonin lurking in the shadows, back to the Raikage Building.
"Mafui, what happened that you sent someone to call me back? Don't you know that my training was at a critical moment?"
Upon entering his office, the Fourth Raikage questioned his personal secretary with dissatisfaction.
Mafui slightly bowed to the Fourth Raikage.
"Sorry for calling you back at this time, Lord Raikage. However, there's a very important matter right now that requires your personal judgment."
Saying this, Mafui glanced at Darui and C standing behind the Fourth Raikage.
Darui and C exchanged a glance, nodded, and silently left the room, with all surrounding Anbu temporarily departing, leaving only the Fourth Raikage and Mafui.
"What's so significant?"
The Fourth Raikage walked over and continued to ask.
Mafui took out an envelope, handing it to the Fourth Raikage.
"This is a letter from Lord Daimyo. According to the envoy, it concerns the Land of Demons. The envoy said it's to be viewed by the Raikage alone."
After finishing, Mafui also moved aside.
"Land of Demons?"
The Fourth Raikage was even more curious, took the letter, opened the envelope, took out the paper inside, and began to read.
After reading, the Fourth Raikage set the letter back into the envelope, his face heavy.
Standing still for quite some time, the Fourth Raikage said to Mafui: "Mafui, select twenty Jonin, three hundred Chunin, and have them ready on standby in the village. I need to go to the Daimyo's Mansion for an important discussion."
"Yes, safe travels, Lord Raikage."
Mafui gave a slight bow, respectfully seeing off the departing Fourth Raikage.
