Rin achieved this by letting herself be stabbed by Kakashi's Chidori which not only stopped the Three-Tails from being released but also resulted in Rin's death. The Kiri shinobi were adamant in retrieving Rin's body and not allowing it to fall into enemy hands. Rin chose to die by Kakashi's hands, rather than be used as a tool to destroy her own village. Kirigakure also partook in the war against Konohagakure and made Rin Nohara into the jinchūriki of the Three-Tails. This is also the war in which the Third Raikage died and the Fourth Raikage was appointed. Kumogakure was also seemingly a part of this war, with at least Konohagakure clashing with shinobi from this village, specifically Minato and A.

Iwagakure was also known to have been fighting Kumogakure with various skirmishes between the two villages. It was not until the destruction of the Kannabi Bridge that the war began turning in Konoha's favour. Konohagakure and Iwagakure fought across Kusagakure after the latter had infiltrated it in order to lay siege to the border of the Land of Fire.
