# Chapter 839: Already Old!
"Hiss----Huff----"
The Third Raikage stood alone by the window, some warm golden sunlight spilling onto his muscular Chest.
He was originally wearing a top specifically for patients, but he disliked it and took it off, throwing it onto the Sofa. He put back on the single-shoulder white coat that the nurses had washed and folded in the wardrobe.
It always had a fragrant Scent on it, which made him feel a bit uncomfortable.
So he lit a Cigarette for himself, hoping to use the smell of smoke to cover up this overly feminine fragrance.
*Cough cough.*
Actually, the stimulation he received was just a bit too great, and his craving for Cigarettes kicked in.
He simply told Dean Marco that he wanted to be alone for a while and asked for a pack of Cigarettes.
He actually really wanted a Cigar, but Marco didn't smoke Cigars, so he could only try this 'Water Pipe' which was quite popular among the middle and upper echelons of the World Government.
Its Characteristic was that the smoke inhaled would give a soft, water-like Touch Sensation, and the smoke exhaled would turn into small Bubbles in the Air.
It was said to originate from a place called Fish-Man Island on the Sea Star Mainland, where nearly a million Fish-Man Tribe and Merfolk Tribe members, who only existed in stories, lived.
Marco even used something called a Star Den Den Mushi to find Footage of the Fish-Man Tribe and Merfolk Tribe for him on some Network.
He even said he would be able to see them when he went out later.
However, the Third Raikage felt that he didn't really like this Water Pipe.
Trying it out of novelty for the first time was fine, but if there were Cigars, he definitely wouldn't choose this again.
Enough about the smoke.
After Marco left, he stood alone by the window for a long time. From his Viewpoint as a Higher-Up, he could see the scenery of people coming and going outside.
Among them were many figures that looked quite fantastical.
Their appearances were strange and varied, but they were basically humanoid marine creatures. These should be the so-called Fish-Man Tribe.
Their Attire was mostly the same Black Military Uniform, except some of them wore a Black Coat draped over their shoulders with the word 'Justice' written on the back in white lettering.
It was exactly the same as the Crocodile from before. After all, he couldn't understand the Shoulder Insignia or anything like that right now.
Besides that.
He also saw figures with very long arms or very long legs, or those that looked like upright walking Land Beasts. These were probably the Mink Tribe mentioned in the previous Footage?
He even saw two Giant Tribe members who were estimated to be twenty to thirty meters tall!
The Third Raikage stared at them while smoking the Water Pipe, falling into deep thought.
His Brain was currently painfully repairing and restructuring his Worldview, because the introductory video from before, caught him completely off guard and directly shattered his original Worldview.
So this World was like this. There wasn't just one World. And he was such a Frog in a Well?
He finally understood the vastness of the Universe and the Infinite Space-Time!
What was the Ninja World?
The Five Great Nations, the Five Great Ninja Villages, what were he and the other Kage?
Thinking about it now, they were just Ants, mere dust.
What First Great Ninja War, what Second Great Ninja War.
They were just squabbles within the small Ninja World, how ridiculous. And he was still pursuing being the Strongest in the Ninja World?
Strongest my ass!
Even Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju from back then seemed so insignificant when placed under the Worldview of the World Government.
The more the Third Raikage thought about it, the more his hand holding the Water Pipe trembled.
He seemed to have already seen the Outcome of the Ninja World being targeted by the World Government. As the Raikage of the Cloud Hidden Village in the Land of Lightning, he could say he had a sufficient Understanding of the overall Strength of the Ninja World.
For example, the Quantity of Ninja, the Strength of Ninja, the types of various Ninjutsu, and the Strength of those Kage-level individuals.
No matter how he thought about it, they would be completely overwhelmed.
It wasn't that he underestimated the Kage and Jonin of other villages. Since he himself was easily Captured Alive, those guys would only be even more pathetic. The Third Raikage was very confident about this point.
He firmly believed that he was the top Combat Power in the contemporary Ninja World!
"But this doesn't seem like a bad thing..."
The Third Raikage began to figure it out. If you can't beat them, join them. The World Government wasn't trying to destroy the World, but to conquer the Ninja World.
This might be difficult for the Daimyo and High Official Nobility of those Nations to accept.
But for Ninja like them, it was just changing rulers. Of course, psychologically, it would definitely be a bit uncomfortable and unaccustomed at first.
However, thinking about being able to follow the World Government to conquer Other Worlds, it seemed that with some Effort, he could overcome and adapt.
Mainly.
He really couldn't see any Hope for the Ninja World to resist the World Government, unless the Sage of Six Paths from the myths descended...
The Third Raikage's mood gradually relaxed.
[Knock knock knock]
Just then, the Door of this ward was gently knocked.
The Third Raikage raised an eyebrow and slowly turned around, his back to the increasingly scorching sunlight as noon approached.
Dean Marco had said before.
Such good weather was becoming increasingly rare on the Canberra Continent. Most of the time, Dark Clouds covered the sky, as if even the Sky was affected by the Military Camps on the Earth.
This sounded like a joke to him. What kind of Military Camp could affect the weather?
"Hello, Third Raikage of Cloud Hidden Village. We are Agents from the Otherworld Strategy Committee. We hope to invite you to our Branch here for a detailed discussion."
Three Men in Black with serious demeanors walked in, one in front and two behind.
"Alright, lead the way."
The Third Raikage nodded. He had already heard Marco say that people from the relevant Departments would come to take him away later.
In his Understanding, these Men in Black were probably similar to the Anbu Members in the various Ninja Villages.
"Please."
Next, under the escort of the three Men in Black Guards, the Third Raikage passed through the Corridor of the World Hospital and then took the Elevator to the first floor.
The moment the elevator doors opened, surging human voices rushed towards him.
"It's actually this big..."
The Third Raikage stepped out of the elevator car, staring dumbfounded at the lobby that was large enough for Giant Tribe members to walk around freely.
This Domain was too high, too big!
When he was upstairs before, he really didn't realize that this World Hospital was so ridiculously big. It must be half the size of Cloud Hidden Village?
And the Fish-Man Tribe in the crowd, the Merfolk Tribe who could float and move with Bubbles around their Waists.
The Winged Human Race with a pair of wings on their backs, and even people with red or Blue Light emitting from their Chests.
The dense crowd, each with their own Characteristics, made him feel a bit dazzled.
Mainly, viewing from a distance and close-up contact were different in terms of visual effect and physical and mental Feeling.
But the scene he saw next made the Third Raikage, who felt he had already become numb, once again stand dumbfounded, completely bewildered.
"This... this is..."
He was currently riding the Small Craft that came to pick him up, flying at a Height of about five hundred meters from the Ground, while the three Men in Black silently stood guard behind him.
The Third Raikage's Viewpoint allowed him to overlook the scene on the Earth.
The boundless black military camps, the intersecting Trench Tracks.
The dense Fortress Strongholds, the thousands of Cannon Barrels pointing high into the Sky like a forest of Steel.
And the Helicopters, Fighter Aircraft, and various types of Flying Warships with different Functions constantly flying past at different Heights.
All of this formed an invisible yet extremely magnificent Aura.
It rushed towards him like a fierce Wind Pressure, pressing down on him and making it hard to breathe.
Perhaps this was the so-called Military Aura.
The Scale of these military camps was simply too big, too big.
He suddenly understood now why Marco said that the weather would be affected.
Gradually, the Third Raikage's Toughness muscles were clearly trembling, and his face unconsciously revealed a gnashing-teeth Expression: "What a World Government..."
"But why did you only come now?"
His Chest rose and fell violently. He only felt extremely unwilling. His Age was too old, and he could feel his Body gradually declining every day.
This Old Man is already old!!!
