Former second Raikage is a formidable Lighting Style user. When armed with this Lightning jutsu, his speed and power exceed his abilities, so normal human being, even a highly trained shinobi cannot hope to take him down. Raikage suggests using a Wind Style as best defense against him. Like former Mizukage, this Raikage does not want to fight. His actions are directed by Kabuto, who used reanimation jutsu to bring Raikage back from dead to fight his unjust war.
[GoogleAd]Temari is our Wind Style user and a head of the unit. Trying a formation C, Group Wind Style Jutsu fails, but Temari thinks that top-speed Blade Dance may be the only way to take down this opponent. Temari is the strongest Wind Style user of the Fourth Company and she knows she could not defeat the former Raikage. She contemplates her next move when Cloud shinobi Dodai steps in front of her and explains who Raikage was. Facing 10,000 enemy troops alone he used himself as a shield and decoy to save his comrades. Raikage stood alone to fight this army for three days and three nights. This is how he died, a hero.
Suddenly Naruto appears out of nowhere. First two Rasengans miss Raikage. Naruto recalls how fast Lord Raikage was when he encountered him with Bee. With third Rasen Shurinken, Naruto gets lucky and hits Third Raikage straight on. Sealing corps get ready to act, but it's not to be. Raikage stands up and gets ready to fight again. This time, it's serious. Dodai warns everyone to take shelter and for Earth Style shinobi to create a guarding Mud Wall.
Rubber Wall went up after the Mud Wall to offer extra protection. Raikage's strongest ninjutsu, his Piercing Four-Fingered Thrust of Hell, attacked the walls. Dodai warned to get back. Someone got brave and suggested to attack the spot where Raikage is driving his lethal hand though the wall. Many followed and when Raikage got through with his attack, many died.
Raikage switched to Three-Finger-Assault. Dodai comments saying that less fingers he uses the more focused the energy is in his fingers creating a more powerful Thrust of Hell. Word is Third Raikage was the only human ever being able to face Tailed Beast alone and unarmed.
Naruto notices a scar on Raikage's right chest. He asked Dodai how he got that. Raikage faced the Eight Tails long ago and the scar he never spoke about was incurred in that fight. Naruto realized that it's the Tailed Beast that has a chance at overcoming this undead Raikage.
Naruto tried conjuring up a huge Tailed Beast Bomb, with which to attack Raikage, but Raikage's three finger thrust of hell caused a kunai of one of the defending shinobi to fly by Naruto distracting him. Naruto used too much of chakra and lost his Nine Tails mode. Naruto can no longer oppose the Raikage. He must talk to Inoichi intel corp to connect with Bee and his Eight Tails fast.
Raikage withdrew the Three Fingered Thrust of Hell and aimed at the KO with a punch. Dodai quickly produces a dummy rubber ball. Raikage continues piercing through rubber ball thinking Naruto is in it. This buys Dodai few seconds to call the Intel and ask to be connected with Killer Bee.
Naruto asks Eight Tails how he managed to make the scar on Raikage's chest. Eight Tails couldn't remember the scar, but he did remember the One Finger Thrust of Hell, the so called Invincible Spear that cut off all of his tails. He only remembered that Raikage got the scar when he fell forward. Naruto figured, Raikage must have gotten cut when he fell on his own hand.
Naruto instructed Dodai to take everyone away. Tuning into his Sage Mode, Naruto signs a clone and weaves a single Rasengan. Temari thought this was dubious as single Rasengan could not oppose an Invincible Spear.
Naruto in Sage mode with Rasengan in his right hand against lethal Raikage and his Invincible Spear. Just before the high velocity impact, Naruto changed direction to dodge the spear. When he was passing he hit his left arm with his Rasengan. Raikage stood still, then dissipated, ready to be sealed. Dodai offered, "He was a shinobi with ultimate spear and shield. What a paradox."
