Kumogakure (雲隠れの里) was the hidden village of the Land of Lightning and was founded by the First Raikage. It was once one of the “Five Great Shinobi Villages”, Kumogakure had a Kage as its leader known as the Raikage. The village is located in a range of tall mountains and is hidden in the clouds. The Raikage works in a large blue structure built into the tallest mountain.

After several years of unrest and reckless fighting with other villages, Kumogakure attempted a war with Iwagakure. After several weeks of fighting, Kumogakure could no longer sustain their numbers. Eventually, everyone in the land either died or abandoned the village altogether. The ruins of Kumogakure and the Land of Lightning are now under the control of unknown powerful beings… Anyone who attempts to enter has been killed mercilessly.
