Start with a Zanpakuto and build the strongest Mist Village

Chapter 185 Haoyue and Hotaru's Election of the Fifth Hokage
"Broken Dao No. 96: Cremation with One Sword!"

At the moment when Mizunoe Ye pierced his chest, Uchiha Shisui suddenly grabbed Ye's arm with one hand, ensuring that he could not avoid his next attack.

At the same time, the spiritual power that was condensed to the extreme suddenly burst out at this moment, and the most powerful way to break the law that he mastered at this stage was suddenly released at this moment!

"what?"

A hint of astonishment appeared in Ye's eyes, and the next moment, flames broke out of the ground into the sky. With Uchiha Shisui and Mizunoe Yue as the core, a terrifying column of fire was ignited, as if the world was ending and the earth was cracking.

The pillar of fire that shot up into the sky was like a sharp blade, piercing through the entire sky and earth of Jingwu Island. The scorching heat engulfed everything, even the space was burned by it and began to distort.

"Then, what is that..."

Countless virtual beings looked in horror at the fire knife that seemed to be cutting the world in half, feeling that if they could not withstand the blow head-on, even if they just got close, their spirits would probably collapse.

Fire burst, and a figure appeared on the side.

Uchiha Shisui stood in mid-air, panting, his left hand hanging down, his eyes cold and fierce.

The Ninety-Sixth Blade of the Broken Dao, Cremation Sword, is the highest level of ghost art he has mastered so far, and it is also the most destructive skill, bar none.

The destructive power of this Hadō is particularly astonishing. It is a super sacrificial Hadō that can only be released by burning one's own limbs to charcoal as a sacrifice. It burns everything with a blazing high-temperature flame column like a sharp blade. Even among the current captains of the Gotei 13, there are only a few who can control this Kidō.

If an ordinary person were to use this power, he would have to pay the price of having his limbs burned to charcoal. Fortunately, he was not an ordinary person.

After just a few breaths, Shisui's breath gradually calmed down. Not only was the chest that was pierced by Mizunoe Yue filled and healed, but even the charred arm was restored.

Super-speed regeneration, this is a power that only the Hollow can master!

"Using their super-fast regeneration ability after becoming hollow, they maximized their explosive power. The Uchiha clan's combat wisdom is indeed sharp."

The bland voice made the look in Shisui's eyes even gloomier.

The flames gradually dissipated, and an unharmed figure emerged from it. This result made Uchiha Shisui's pupils suddenly shrink and his fists clenched.

"Even Ninety-Six's cremation knife has no effect..."

"Don't be surprised. Your power is like a turbulent stream, but it will not cause many waves when it hits the sea." Ye looked at the virtual Shisui with a gentle smile: "But I am still quite satisfied with your performance. At least now you have the level to swing your sword at people from outer space."

"Well, welcome back, my captain of the second squad."

"...You guy."

Uchiha Shisui looked at Mizunoe Yue with a complicated expression. Even if he revealed such murderous intent, could this guy still say something like returning to the team so calmly?

Isn't he afraid of becoming the rat shit in the mess, and a traitor to the entire Soul Society? !

Or……

I am just an insignificant clown.

It should be the latter. After all, even if he used all his strength, he couldn't move the corner of Mizunoe Yue's clothes even a little bit.

With such a gap between heaven and earth, between the bright moon and fireflies, how could I be noticed by Mizuno Yueye?

“How ironic.”

Uchiha Shisui laughed at himself: "Should I be grateful for your kindness?"

"If you are sincere, I am looking forward to it."

"……hehe."

……

The test of Shisui's virtualization has basically met the standards. After entering the virtualization state, Shisui's strength will be increased several times in all aspects, but his rationality and thinking ability will drop sharply. However, if he can control it, then virtualization can become a simple means of increasing strength.

Well, we can't conduct large-scale experiments for the time being. After all, even Shisui, who possesses the Rinnegan, almost couldn't withstand it, so one can imagine what the other Shinigami captains can do.

Ye was not in a hurry. After returning to the Hidden Mist Village, he handed Shisui's research report to Yumi, and also gave Shisui a small reward - he only needed to cooperate with Yumi in the virtual data research experiment for a short period of time.

After the data was almost recorded, Shisui walked towards his own Kirigakure Uchiha base, but after taking two steps, he was blocked by a fiery figure.

"You are……"

Looking at that familiar face, Shisui's eyes widened, "Kushina-sama?!"

"Let's talk."

Uzumaki Kushina looked at the former Uchiha genius in front of her, who was extremely young but looked tired, and sighed softly, "Let's talk about Konoha, let's talk about us."

"This……"

Uchiha Shisui was slightly startled, and naturally understood that the 'we' that Uzumaki Kushina mentioned was not just her and himself.

There were other people at the party.

Who is it?
Shisui followed Uzumaki Kushina's pace.

He and Kushina are actually quite familiar with each other, not only because he and Minato Namikaze were once the Gemini Stars of Konoha, but also because there is a member of the Uchiha clan under Minato Namikaze's command.

Uchiha Obito.

Although it is difficult to comment on that guy's current identity and everything he has done, when everyone was in Konoha, Shisui had a lot of contact with Uzumaki Kushina because of this.

The two of them walked one in front and one behind. Although they did not run at full speed, their speed was not slow.

In just a moment, the two arrived at Kushina's house.

The door opened, and Shisui was quite surprised to see several figures in the room.

"Lady Tsunade, and...Lord Orochimaru?"

"Uchiha Shisui, the true genius of the Uchiha clan." Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth, his erect snake pupils flashing with fierce interest: "I have looked through all the experimental logs since the Fourth Hokage took office. If it weren't for you, Kirigakure's bloodline experiments and soul experiments would probably not have progressed so quickly."

"…Thanks for the compliment."

Shisui's mouth twitched slightly. Although Orochimaru's words sounded quite sarcastic, he also knew Orochimaru's character. As the cold master of the Three Ninjas, Orochimaru did not have such a low-level bad taste. This guy was just interested in scientific research experiments.

But, when did Orochimaru join Kirigakure, and during the time when he was in the form of a hollow?
Shisui didn't know, but since Orochimaru could appear here, he also understood the current identity of Konoha's top rebel ninja.

However, he did not feel any spiritual power from Orochimaru, so it seemed that Orochimaru had not yet been recruited into the Soul Society.

"I thought you would miss this event." Tsunade looked at Shisui's figure, and looked him up and down: "The spiritual power is very stable, but there is a special violent negative energy in the aura... You should have succeeded."

"Well, it was a success."

Shisui nodded and sat down on a tatami mat in the house.

There was nothing to hide. The news of his hollowing out was no secret among the Shinigami, or rather, Mizunoe Tsukiyomi had never thought of covering it up.

Now that he has returned safely, it naturally means that the experiment on his transformation into a virtual being has been successful.

"The fusion of the Hollow and the God of Death, mastering the power of the Hollow with the body of the God of Death." Orochimaru's long tongue kept licking the corner of his mouth: "It's really interesting to think about it, and your eyes... Shisui-kun, can you let me study you?"

Rinnegan. The reason why he joined Akatsuki was because he valued Akatsuki's resources and Nagato's eyes.

It’s a pity that even now after joining Kirigakure, he hasn’t had many close contacts with Nagato.

In Nagato's words, although everyone is a member of the Akatsuki organization, humans should keep their distance from gods!
"Research……"

Uchiha Shisui's body trembled slightly, then he raised his head and looked at Orochimaru, the cold murderous intent in his reincarnation eyes was not concealed at all.

Damn it, Uzumaki Yumi has the support of Mizunoe Tsukiyomi, and she is also the number one researcher in Kirigakure and the person in charge of soul experiments. Almost all the Shinigami transformations in Kirigakure, including him, are under the responsibility of Uzumaki Yumi.

She studied me, I won't argue, but you, Orochimaru, a Konoha traitor who hasn't even become a god of death, what right do you have to study me? !
"What fascinating eyes..."

Instead of frightening Orochimaru, Shisui's warning look only deepened the curiosity and greed in Orochimaru's eyes.

He could feel the specialness of the pair of Rinnegan in Shisui's eyes. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he even felt that these eyes were far more powerful than the ones in Nagato's eyes.

Is it because after becoming a god of death, the power of the soul replaced the chakra?

Orochimaru was full of curiosity and even wanted to start research immediately, but fortunately, the importance of life suppressed his desire for scientific research in the end, and he forced himself to calm down.

Of course, his eyes naturally remained on Uchiha Shisui and never left him at all.

Orochimaru's eyes that seemed to want to eat him alive really made Shisui feel a little overwhelmed. He resisted the urge to beat this guy up and looked at Tsunade: "Lady Tsunade, the event you just mentioned is..."

"It's the Hokage election."

Tsunade said: "It's the election of the Fifth Hokage, and thanks to you, it is very likely that your Uchiha clan will be elected."

In the Hokage election, it is possible that the Uchiha clan will be elected.

This sentence seems to be flawless, and the tone and meaning are very clear, but why does it smell strange when read together?

As for the Uchiha election... Chief Fugaku, have you finally taken the step in your heart?
When Uchiha Fugaku was fighting in Konoha and Kumogakure and shining on the battlefield, Shisui had already entered the state of hollowing, so he was unaware of what was happening in the outside world, but he had some expectations in his heart.

The reason why he agreed to Mizunoe Tsuki's request to become a Hollow was to help Konoha overcome the difficulties of Kumogakure, and now it seems that Konoha has not only overcome the difficulties, but the results are even beyond his imagination.

Will the Uchiha clan... ever stand up again? !
"Oh, it looks like everyone is here."

Along with the abrupt voice, Mizunotsuki appeared in front of the four people in an instant, and greeted them with a smile: "It is quite rare for old friends to get together. Even if we are all living under the same roof now, it is not worse to be apart in such an open way."

"There's going to be a big show next. Would you like some melon seeds, peanuts and fish sashimi?"

The four people had different expressions. Tsunade snorted and clapped her hands: "Don't be so nagging, just keep it clean. As for those things, I've already asked the elites to prepare them!"

"Sorry, I'm late." A weak voice came from the door. Shizune, who was holding a lot of bags, said breathlessly: "I bought the tender chicken and sake that Tsunade-sama likes, as well as ramen."

Tsunade showed a satisfied look, Kushina chuckled, took the things from Shizune's hand, and immediately found that there were several fish and some fresh fruits in it.

There's even a small oven!

"These are fresh white pomfret from Mist Country and large oilfish from Water Country. I thought I could roast them. There are also apples and eggs..."

Shisui was stunned, and Orochimaru snorted lightly, with the corners of his mouth rising.

Who can resist a big show that happens to have one of their favorite foods at the opening?
Looking at Shizune who was preparing the ingredients skillfully and the others who were gradually getting excited, Mizuno Yueye had a rather strange look on her face.

Holding a meeting with old friends of Konoha in front of me, the Fourth Mizukage?

You really don't take me, a water shadow, seriously at all!
"Get out of the way, everyone. My hot pot is the one you have to watch the show with!"

Under the stunned gazes of several people, Mizunoe Yue waved his hand and directly took out a copper pot, a portion of beef hot pot base and countless cut and frozen meats from the scroll.

These meats are frozen by the power of Ye Yong Bing Lun Wan. They are absolutely frozen and will never deteriorate. All they need to do is put them in the pot, and they will be no different from freshly cut ones!

The chakra was gently activated and the whole hot pot started to cook. No matter whether the Konoha election had started or not, let's start with two slices of beef!
"Hmm~ That's the taste~"

After swallowing two slices of beef and feeling the silent gazes of the people around him, Mizuno Yueye coughed lightly, and with a wave of his hand, a spiritual light curtain suddenly appeared in front of him.

He had already placed surveillance bacteria in various locations in Konoha, and what appeared on the light curtain at this moment was definitely an ultra-clear Blu-ray VVVIP-level film and television effect!
The figures moved within the light curtain, and the familiar, long-missed faces made the four people present look strange.

Or trance, or nostalgia, or regret, or helplessness.

"Kacha."

This is the crisp sound of Orochimaru biting an apple.

Ye glanced at Orochimaru, the only Konoha rebel ninja among the four people present. Orochimaru paused, took out an apple from his bag reluctantly and threw it to Ye.

"...Crack, um, pretty sweet."

Ye silently took the apple, took a bite, and then set his eyes on the light curtain.

Several figures have walked onto the podium of the Hokage Building, and along with the speech of the Acting Hokage, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, the election of the Fifth Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village in the Land of Fire has begun.

Kicked off!
