Capítulo 225: Chapter 225: My Granddaughter is Only Eighteen
"The Eight-Tails' chakra amount is about one-tenth of his, maybe even less," Dodai confirmed.
Hearing this, the Fourth Raikage and the others stared wide-eyed in shock, unable to believe what they were hearing.
The Flying Thunder God user's chakra amount is ten times that of the Eight-Tails!
Who the hell is the real-tailed beast here?!
"Gyuki, is that person's chakra really ten times yours?" Killer Bee asked curiously in his mind.
Since Shishou had always been polite to him and even had Yugito give him a rap CD, Killer Bee quite liked Shishou.
"When I saw him on Turtle Island, he didn't have that much chakra."
"But since Dodai said so, it's likely his strength has increased further," Gyuki said with some amazement.
It's been a long time since Gyuki had seen someone with more chakra than a tailed beast.
Moreover, such people were never to be trifled with.
The last time he saw one was decades ago, the man who said Kurama was dangerous and then grabbed Kurama with one hand—Hashirama Senju.
Gyuki learned about this from Kurama when all nine tailed beasts were corralled by Hashirama outside Konoha's gates.
It was such an unbelievable story that Gyuki remembered it vividly.
Of course, in Gyuki's view, even Hashirama Senju's chakra amount couldn't have been ten times his.
That guy named Shishou might be even more terrifying than Hashirama at his peak!
The Fourth Raikage's brow furrowed deeply, his eyes fixed on Dodai as he asked harshly:
"Dodai, are you sure about this?"
If Shishou's chakra was indeed ten times that of the Eight-Tails, combined with his mastery of Wood Release and the Mangekyo Sharingan, he could potentially devastate the Hidden Cloud Village single-handedly!
And with the Flying Thunder God technique, he would be invincible, leaving them with no means to counter him.
This scenario was something the Fourth Raikage couldn't even dare to imagine.
Because this meant that if they angered Shishou, the Hidden Cloud Village would be at his mercy, like fish on a chopping board.
"Though I don't want to believe it either, it's true, Lord Fourth Raikage," Dodai said with a pale face.
As a jonin of the Hidden Cloud Village, he naturally didn't want a threat to the village to exist.
Hearing Dodai's words, the Fourth Raikage and the high-ranking officials of the Hidden Cloud Village fell silent.
The Raikage's office became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
After a long silence, the Fourth Raikage was the first to speak:
"Since this is the case, we can't change it."
"This time, the Flying Thunder God user came to the Hidden Cloud Village for..."
After explaining Shishou's purpose for visiting the Hidden Cloud Village and his intention to teach Yugito, Mabui, and Samui sage techniques, the Fourth Raikage looked at the others and said:
"So, what kind of approach should the Hidden Cloud Village take towards Shishou? Let's hear your thoughts."
Shishou's displayed strength was so terrifying that even the usually reckless Fourth Raikage had to tread carefully.
He actually possesses the sage techniques from the three great sacred lands?
The high-ranking officials and elders of the Hidden Cloud Village exchanged shocked glances.
The sage techniques of the three great sacred lands were not easy to obtain.
And now, this young man named Shishou was willing to trade them just to promote his so-called fertilizers?
Though he was only willing to teach Mabui and Samui out of consideration for Yugito, if their granddaughters could catch his eye, wouldn't they have a chance to learn sage techniques too?
With this thought, the elders' eyes lit up.
Seeing no one else speaking, Killer Bee raised his hand and said to the Fourth Raikage:
"Brother, Gyuki said you don't need to worry. According to Gyuki's and Matatabi's interactions, Gyuki believes Shishou isn't the kind of person who would do evil. Otherwise, he would've taken Gyuki and Matatabi long ago."
"If you're still worried, Gyuki suggests trying to win him over."
Hearing this, Dodai also nodded in agreement and said to the Fourth Raikage:
"Lord Fourth Raikage, I think the Eight-Tails has a point."
"Shishou came to the Hidden Cloud Village to promote fertilizers that can increase food production and claimed he would prevent wars between the five great ninja villages."
"Despite having such terrifying strength, he's willing to trade the sage techniques of the three great sacred lands for something beneficial to the Hidden Cloud Village, rather than using threats or coercion."
"This suggests he's not a ruthless villain and probably won't harm the Hidden Cloud Village."
"And given his close relationship with Lady Yugito, he's even less likely to harm the village."
Hearing this, the Fourth Raikage snorted angrily:
"The safety of the Hidden Cloud Village cannot depend on someone's whims!"
Hearing this, Killer Bee and Dodai fell silent.
From the perspective of the Hidden Cloud Village, the Fourth Raikage was right.
Dodai then continued:
"In that case, we should take a two-pronged approach."
"On one hand, we should try to win Shishou over. If we can do that, his strength would be a great asset to the Hidden Cloud Village."
"On the other hand, we should expedite research on countermeasures to ensure we have a means to threaten him, like speeding up the development of the chakra cannon."
Hearing this, the Fourth Raikage gave Dodai a satisfied look and asked:
"So, how do you propose we win him over?"
Before Dodai could answer, a white-haired elder from the Hidden Cloud Village laughed and said:
"I've heard the Flying Thunder God user not only has ties with the Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village but also recently got involved with the Princess Tsunade of the Hidden Leaf Village. It seems he has a fondness for beautiful women."
"Lord Fourth Raikage, maybe we can use this to our advantage."
Another elder chimed in:
"Since Yugito has a close relationship with him, we should send more beautiful women to interact with him, using beauty to win him over."
"My granddaughter is only eighteen, Lord Fourth Raikage. Perhaps you could recommend her?"
Hearing this, the other elders quickly joined in, recommending their daughters or female disciples, afraid someone else would beat them to it.
They had heard that sage techniques could prolong life, and these elders, who were already old, didn't want to miss this opportunity.
These old fogies think I don't know what they're up to.
They are envious of Yugito, Mabui, and Samui learning sage techniques and want to use their daughters to curry favor with Shishou.
Hearing the suggestions from the high-ranking officials, the Fourth Raikage was seething with anger.
Seeing the Raikage's expression, Dodai quickly said:
"Lord Fourth Raikage, I think we should discuss this with Lady Yugito, as well as Mabui and Samui."
