Suddenly, Onoki narrows his eyes.
Fwoosh…
He darts into the sky and arrives beneath the clouds.
"This technique and chakra signature… there is no doubt about it."
Onoki glances at the empty space in front of him.
"You are here, aren't you, Mū-sama!"
Fwoosh…
A veil of water lifts and a figure in multiple bandages appear in front of Onoki.
"Hmm… Looks like you still remember after so many years. Judging from your current appearance, it has been a very long time since I left this world." Mū scrutinizes Onoki's appearance.
"It has been more than forty years since you died. But the cause of your death is still a mystery to us," Onoki converses normally with Mū.
The latter doesn't show any hostility as of yet, which implies that he is still in control of his body.
"More than forty years, huh? I guess time sure took its toll on your body. Well, I never expected to die in the hands of that Mizukage bastard. I was in an advantageous position the entire time during our battle. But during his last moments, he landed a sneak attack on me; but I also managed to deliver the final blow to him. So, in the end, both of us died in that battle. There was no victor among us." Mūshakes his head.
"WHAT? The second Mizukage was so strong?!" Onoki is surprised to hear this.
"Mm… I also didn't expect that bastard to hide such a powerful concealment jutsu. The world gave me the nickname of the 'Null Man' for my <Dustless Bewildering Cover> jutsu. However, his concealment technique was no less than mine, leading me to drop my guard at the final moment and ambush me when I was unprepared." Mū sighs and shakes his head.
"Still, what's going on? Why am I back in the world of living? And this technique seems to be the forbidden jutsu of the Second Hokage. Where is he? No, judging from the time passed; he must also be dead. So, who summoned me to this world, and for what purpose?" Mūenquires.
"Well, it's a long story. But there is someone else besides the Second Hokage who can also use this technique. And currently, he is an enemy of the entire world. That means we both stand on the opposing sides." Onoki gives a brief explanation of the situation to Mū.
"Hmm… enemy of the world… opposing sides! So, does this mean…" Mū glances at the forces of the allied shinobi army with slight bewilderment.
"… there is some power strong enough to resist the might of alliance of Five Great Nations? Tell me more about it!"
"Very well!" Onoki begins his explanation.

Meanwhile,
In the 9 o'clock direction from the Allied Shinobi Force Headquarters,
A stare at the giant cloud of lightning in the sky and grits his teeth.
"Damn that bastard Kabuto! I can feel Gramps and Pops' presence within that thunderstorm." A smash his fist into a nearby boulder.
"Raikage-dono, it's not the time to lose calm to your sentiments. Because that's what our enemies want us to do. They want us to make a mistake and fall for their trap." Sakumo attempts to placate Raikage's feelings.
"Damn it, if the Akatsuki wants to piss me off. Then they have succeeded in doing so!" A clench his fist.
"You must not lose your calm, Raikage-sama! We are fighting this battle to protect Lord B." C also shakes his head.
The mention of Bee's name slightly calms A down, and he turns towards Sakumo and opens his mouth.
"Lord Sakumo, the black clouds and the thunderstorm in the sky are the result of an extremely powerful technique passed down through the Raikage lineage. The ancestors of my clan developed this technique much before the era of the Shinobi nations. At the time of its development, my clan labeled it as the strongest lightning jutsu in existence. And it's still the most powerful lightning jutsu in this era called <Lightning Release: Raimu Raito>. This technique involves Four powerful Kage-level shinobis to continuously channel their chakra into a gigantic cloud of lightning. The thunderstorm is a result of that black lightning cloud.
Once the technique is completed, it's powerful enough to wipe out an entire village on its own. The destructive power of this technique is close to 6 on the extermination scale and can be considered a natural calamity. There are very few techniques that can block this attack. The powerful barrier ninjutsu of the Uzumaki clan are a few among them. However, the Uzumaki clan…" A turn silent as he glances at the black cloud in the sky.
"How much time do we have?" Sakumo enquires as he gets ready to battle.
"We still have around an hour's worth of time since only three people are channeling their chakra into the technique." A explains.
"Let's try to stop them before they can complete their technique." Sakumo readies his blade and glances at the vast army of White Zetsu.
'Looks like the Akatsuki has focused much of their forces on this battlefield.'

"The reinforcement is on its way!" The member of the communication team receives a message from the headquarter.
Meanwhile, at the same time, within the Allied Shinobi forces headquarter,
A giant distortion appears on top of the water-sensing sphere at the position of enemy Raikages.
"Such a powerful ninjutsu!" Ao and Inoichi glance at the water-sensing sphere with trepidation.
"What are the chances that our barrier team can block this jutsu?" Shikaku enquires as he glances at the tumor-shaped distortion on the water-sensing sphere.
"The chances are very low!" A senior member of the logistics and barrier team shakes his head.
"Perhaps Lord Minato might have a solution!" He suggests.
Sigh…
"Lord Minato is currently busy in a diplomatic discussion with the Daimyo and the representative of Redaku island." Shikaku shakes his head.
"Redaku Island?!" Everyone in the central hall curiously turns to Shikaku.
Shikaku glances at their curious gazes and opens his mouth.
"The information about Redaku Island is the most confidential matter in the Shinobi world. However, since Redaku Island has made contact with us, it won't be long before their existence becomes known to the rest of the world. So, seems like I can reveal things about Redaku to everyone."
Everyone perks up their ears to listen to Shikaku's intelligence.
"The nation of Redaku is an ancient land separated from the rest of the shinobi world by a powerful natural formation. Only a selected few from the shinobi world can visit Redaku and similarly, only a selected few from Redaku can travel to the shinobi world. However, the history of Redaku predates that of the Five Great Nations and is believed to be even more ancient than the Sage of Six Paths himself.
So, with this fact alone; we can't ignore the presence of Redaku. However, up till now, the people of Redaku isolated themselves from the shinobi world to the point that they didn't even bother with any of the shinobi wars. However, something must have happened for them to finally reveal their existence to the entire shinobi world."
Shikaku recalls a confidential meeting of all Kage during the previous night. The secret meeting happened right after the war council meeting. Some influential figures from the Redaku island contacted Lord Minato through some sort of communication technique and proposed to assist the Shinobi world in the Fourth Shinobi War.
Of course, they have a few terms of their own for the cooperation. Minato and the rest of the Kage held a meeting to discuss the terms and even informed the respective Daimyo of their country about the situation since this involves the economy of all nations.
So, the current meeting is held between the representative of the Redaku and the Daimyo of the various nations.
-----------------------
Inside a meeting hall in the Allied shinobi force headquarter,
Swoosh… swoosh…
The images of various Daimyos appear on multiple giant screens. The various Daimyo glance at each other and Minato and exclaim in surprise.
"This is quite a convenient communication technique, Lord Minato!" The Daimyo of the Land of Earth exclaims with a fan in front of his face.
"It was all thanks to the investment from Shinjo-sama, that we could research such a technique." Minato courtly praise the Fire Daimyo.
Hoho…
The Fire Daimyo raises his head in pride and fans his face with a Sensu fan (folding fan) as the other Daimyo casts an envious gaze at him.
Minato silently praises Izuna's evaluation of the current Daimyo in his mind. The Fire Daimyō has a fickle and indecisive nature and is easily swayed in his decisions through biases as well as external influences.
During the early days of his career as an entrepreneur, Izuna lacked a source of funding despite his usurping of the Gato company. Since in the end, the Gato company was a small fish and Izuna needed a large sum to shape his grand plan. So, he used the weakness of the Fire Daimyo to extort funds from him.
And what was the weakness of the current Fire Daimyo?
Well, it was his wife, Madam Shijimi. Madam Shijimi could easily sway his husband's mind and thus Izuna coerced her through the prototypes of various cosmetics and other beauty products and was able to secure quite a huge initial funding.
