Kyuubi passed by Fire Country. It went instead to the Village of Sand in Wind Country for Shukaku. First and last of the bijuu, they were old enemies. When the world was younger their battles had raged for years on end. The other bijuu alternately made and betrayed alliances as it pleased them, or even ignored each other for centuries at a time, but Kyuubi and Shukaku's enmity was sure and steady.
And now this old enemy was lately trapped in a human infant. Those upstart mortals had dared imprison a bijuu. Yes, Kyuubi was going to Sunagakure.
To laugh.
