Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 916: The Poisonous Village
The establishment of the Hidden Poison Village quickly caused a sensation in the Land of Waves and even the entire ninja world.

The residents on the island were talking about it, they were curious and a little awed by the appearance of the Poison Hidden Village.

The Poison Hidden Village, the name itself is full of temptation and danger.

It is said that its founder was a poison master who was once a legendary figure in the ninja world. Tired of endless fighting and betrayal, he chose to establish his own ideal country in this desolate land.

Not only are there many masters who are good at using poisons, but there are also many unknown secrets and forbidden techniques hidden here.

Outside the village, there is a natural barrier made of poisonous plants. Even the bravest explorers need to think twice before going.

As night fell, the taverns in the Land of Waves were brightly lit and bustling with people. The bartenders were busy wiping the glasses while telling vivid stories about the various strange things in the Poison Village.

Some say that the ninjas there can manipulate natural toxins and turn them into deadly weapons; others say that deep in the Poison Village there are ancient medical books and antidote formulas that can cure all the world's stubborn diseases.

These stories were passed on by word of mouth among the guests, and were exaggerated, making the Poison Hidden Village even more mysterious and fascinating.

The sailors at the dock exchanged news from afar, while the farmers in the fields looked up at the once barren but now vibrant land in their spare time from work, their hearts filled with curiosity and expectation about the unknown.

Every day, thousands of people gather around the Hidden Poison Village. Some of them are attracted by the power of the Hidden Poison Village and are eager to become a part of it; others are pure bystanders who want to witness the rise of this emerging ninja village with their own eyes with curiosity and awe.

The reason why the Poison Hidden Village caused such a sensation in a short period of time is not only because of its own mystery and power, but also because it adopted an unprecedented open and inclusive policy.

In this village, there are no unattainable thresholds and no strict hierarchy.

As long as you are determined to become a ninja, no matter your background, age, or ability, you have the opportunity to be recognized and trained by the Hidden Poison Village.

This unprecedented equality and opportunity has given countless civilian families hope for changing their destiny.

In order to attract more talents to join, the Poison Hidden Village also promised to provide high subsidies and superior living conditions to formal members.

This is undoubtedly a huge temptation for civilians who have been in poverty and struggle for a long time.

They knew that although becoming a ninja was fraught with dangers, it was undoubtedly a hopeful shortcut compared to the poverty and hopelessness that had been passed down through generations.

However, as the reputation of the Poison Village grew, doubts and concerns also followed. Some people were worried about how a small country like the Kingdom of Waves could afford such a huge cost of training ninjas.

After all, in the ninja world, the ninja village is a country's gold-eating tycoon. They do not produce anything, but need huge amounts of money to maintain daily operations and training.

Take Konoha Village as an example. Its annual expenditure far exceeds the income earned from carrying out missions, and most of the funds need to rely on funding from the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.

The Wave Country is small and poor, and whether it has the financial resources to support the operation of the Poison Hidden Village has become the focus of everyone's attention.

Wesker is in the building of the Poison Village.

Except for the leaders of the ninja villages of the five major countries who can be called "Kage", the leaders of other ninja villages will not be recognized if they call themselves "Kage".

So Wesker just calls himself the leader of the Poison Ninja Village.

Wesker is not a ninja in the traditional sense. He is a top virologist who has an extraordinary understanding of biological modification and virus control.

In the Poison Ninja Village, he is not only the leader, but also the soul of scientific research.

His existence allowed the Poison Village to find a unique way to survive among the five major ninja villages - using the power of viruses and toxins to create a unique way of fighting.

This road has been walked by someone before, that is, Hanzo of the Salamander who is known as the "Demi-God of the Ninja World". However, Hanzo of the Salamander failed in the end.

After collecting a lot of information, Wesker decided to follow the path of Hanzo of the Salamander and develop a ninja village where viruses and toxins coexist.

It’s strange to say, there is no similar ninja village in the ninja world.

Wesker is very confident that their viruses and poisons combined with chakra, the so-called "poison escape" is an extremely dangerous thing.

Alex Mercer is his deputy and the captain of the Anbu!
Yes, a village with not many people already has an ANBU captain and ANBU, and no one knows how many ninjas can become ANBU.

"Alex Mercer, your arrival is always so silent."

Wesker's voice was deep and magnetic, as if it could penetrate people's hearts. He turned around and stared at Alex Mercer who appeared out of nowhere.

Alex also wore a black bodysuit, but his clothes had an indescribable sense of fluidity, as if his body itself was a liquid, ever-changing organism.

"How many worthy targets are there among those fugitives and rebels?"

Luther restored the characters 100%, immersing them in the world and watching their collisions and games with the characters in the plot, while he himself basked in the sun in outer space.

Therefore, both Wesker and Alex Mercer will act according to their own personalities.

It just so happened that both of them were virus researchers. Alex Mercer was even more exaggerated. He had the corresponding memories of tens of thousands of people, including the memories of the group of researchers in Blackwatch.

It can be said that he is even more comprehensive than Wesker.

"The wandering ninjas and the rebellious ninjas are nothing but dregs abandoned by the world."

Alex Mercer shook his head slightly, a hint of disdain in his tone.

"Aren't there jonin-level rebels and wandering ninjas?"

Wesker said with a smile.

“I ate them all.”

Alex Mercer shook his head.

At this point, a strange light flashed in Alex Mercer's eyes.

He does not simply devour life to strengthen himself, but through the special ability of the blacklight virus, he integrates the memory, knowledge and even abilities of the devourer into himself.

This almost mythical way of evolution made him an indispensable presence in the ninja world in a short period of time.

"Eat it, how do you feel?"

Wesker had eaten it himself, so he didn't think there was anything wrong, he was just curious about what Alex Mercer could get.

"Not bad. According to this world, my current chakra should be equivalent to that of a tailed beast, and the ninjutsu I release is very destructive."

Alex Mercer said calmly that he had absorbed too many people, and he himself was a human-like being mimicked by the Blacklight Virus. After obtaining the chakra, the amount of chakra that Alex Mercer could extract was astonishing, equivalent to a human-shaped tailed beast.
