Raikage (Earth-1529)

The Raikage, also known as the Lightning Shadow, is the title granted to the Kage of Kumogakure. The Raikage is regarded as the strongest shinobi in the hidden village. Unlike other villages, the Raikage selecting system consists of either the blood or adopted child of the previous Raikage automatically taking their place in the case of death. The Raikage works in the central blue-colored building in Kumo.

All four Raikage have the name Ay, with a tag-team partner known as Bee, who are supposed to be their life brothers and protecting them.
