It had been almost a year since the Revival of the Kazekage, Gaara of the Sand. For Eleven months there had been relative peace among the country, without war. Team Kakashi and Team Gai returned to Konohagakure no Sato where they have been ever since. Gaara fully recovered and took back his position as the Kazekage, now more cautious and loyal than ever. Uchiha Sasuke and Team Hebi have set off to capture and kill Uchiha Itachi, the Sharingan-wielding clan slayer. Since the extraction of Gaara's Biju there have been no signs of the Organization Akatsuki, and it seemed that they had been wiped from existence itself. Orochimaru the Sannin laid waste to his own village with Manda, as it's position had been revealed to enemy villages.
He then moved elsewhere, accompanied by Kabuto and his ninja followers. Their current location is unknown, though rumours say they have now moved to the Marsh Country. Since then nothing has been reported, and Orochimaru has never been mentioned. However times of peace must end, and this one already had. Recently the Akatsuki have made it clear of their new intentions, and captured the Ruler of Kusagakure no Sato: a Kunoichi named Renzo Kiyuki. The Hidden Grass panicked and sent their most elite shinobi to retrieve their lord, only to be killed at the hands of Uchiha Itachi. While their most elite shinobi had left the village Orochimaru and his forces attacked, leaving nobody alive. Kusagakure no Sato had now fallen under the rule of Orochimaru and his forces.
Many of the lesser villages cowered in fear and join Orochimaru and the newly born Kusagakure, so that they did not suffer the same fate. Akatsuki banded with Orochimaru also, planning to use him and his army to capture the Jinchuriki and then kill him. The Higher shinobi villages acknowledged the new threat and formed a meeting within a secret Compound in Hi no Kuni, each accompanied by an ANBU guard. The main shinobi villages decided to join up and overcome the threat, at least for the time being. However being stubborn as he was the Mizukage decided to join up with Orochimaru, leaving from the meeting before he was attacked. With Kirigakure allying wih Orochimaru's forces it is unknown whether or not that the alliance will be able to stop them. Now begins the second Great Ninja War, one that will de-face the lands forever.
