The Hidden Mist Blacksmith, forging the glory of the Ninja Sword Style!

"I was torn between 20 pulls and 30 pulls before."

"Consider whether to hold a blacksmith recruitment event to replenish reputation."

"But now it seems that there is no need to hold a blacksmith recruitment meeting. The appearance of the Blade of Destruction can directly push my reputation to more than 3000 points, and I can do a 30-pull."

"Senior Madara, I've got the Executioner's Blade."

The cat with the Executioner's Blade found Obito Uchiha.

"The deceased member of the Hozuki clan was named Shinichi Hozuki."

Uchiha Obito nodded.

"Well done, tell me the details."

The cat-like creature glanced at Obito Uchiha and began to speak slowly.

But it didn't say everything, only a part of it.

However, that was enough for Obito Uchiha.

Besides the cat that takes the bamboo, Obito Uchiha had other sources of information.

Obito Uchiha was certain that the Third Mizukage had truly disappeared, and the Zanpakuto that had damaged Pain and his own Kamui dimension was also gone.

"Perhaps, the Third Mizukage also paid a price for using that attack."

"If the Third Mizukage were still alive, then it's impossible that all those people in Kirigakure wouldn't know about it."

"Anbu ninja."

"The heads of the major ninja clans."

""

"Even though Zhu Qu Neko infiltrated Kirigakure, killed people, and stole a sword, no related information has emerged."

"There is no need for me to continue being cautious."

Obito Uchiha made a decision.

"Congratulations, you have successfully passed the test. This is the Rasengan ninjutsu."

Obito Uchiha tossed a ninjutsu scroll to the Taketori Neko, along with a token.

"From today onwards, you are an official member of our Akatsuki organization. Normally, members of our Akatsuki organization act independently, and only gather together when there is an operation."

"If you wish to leverage the organization's power, you may also travel to the Land of Rain with the token."

"Someone will find you."

After saying that, Obito Uchiha left.

The cat-like creature's eyes flickered.

"The Land of Rain?"

The Land of Rain is a small country.

Amegakure is a small ninja village.

However, among the many small ninja villages, Amegakure is definitely one that cannot be ignored.

Because Amegakure produced a top-tier, ruthless figure.

Sansho fish, half-cooked.

Outsiders respectfully call him a demigod of the ninja world.

The God of Shinobi World is Hashirama Senju.

Hanzo the Salamander can be called a demigod in the ninja world, which is enough to show his strength.

Furthermore, the titles of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha were all given by Hanzo.

They brazenly launched the Second Shinobi World War, posing as a small ninja village.

Even if Hanzo the Salamander failed.

Yet, this person still earned the awe of the entire ninja world.

"Could they be remnants of Hanzo?"

"The Rain Village's treacherous intentions remain undiminished?"

"However, Amegakure's main enemies are Konoha and Sunagakure."

"If this Akatsuki organization is indeed a remnant of Hanzo, then its existence might actually be a good thing for Kirigakure."

"Orochimaru wants to obtain information about Zanpakuto through me."

"So, could I leak Konoha's information to Akatsuki, and then leak Akatsuki's information to Konoha?"

"Let them fight each other?"

The cat's eyes lit up, thinking that there was a high chance of success with this operation.

Suddenly, they all began to look forward to their life as rogue ninjas.

Leaving Kirigakure was the dog's own choice.

For the sake of the Kaguya clan and Kirigakure, the Kaguya Neko (Tankori Neko) made this sacrifice.

However, after leaving Kirigakure, the Taketori Neko fell into a period of confusion.

I don't know what I should do.

I don't know where I should be.

Now, the Bamboo Cat has finally found something it can do for the long term.

And, the goal.

"Let them fight!"

Under Yagura's arrangement, the group of ninjas arrived at the training ground near the Mizukage Building.

"Mizukage-sama."

Yagura looked around.

"Everyone."

"The purpose of this event, as I believe everyone already knows, is to select the most suitable user for the Blade of Destruction."

"Before that, let me show you the abilities of the Blade of Destruction."

Yagura took out the Blade of Destruction.

The next moment, chakra was injected.

"Fire erupts!"

Immediately, a highly concentrated flame erupted.

Yagura found a metal target.

After the flames fell, the sustained high temperature caused the surface of the target to show signs of melting.

This is something that ordinary fire-style techniques cannot achieve.

The approaching ninjas noticed this and all showed expressions of surprise.

"Such a powerful flame."

Yagura continued, "This is the power of the Blade of Destruction. Its normal attacks are accompanied by fire damage. The fire is long-lasting and can greatly restrict the enemy."

"And this explosive damage is comparable to a high-level fire jutsu."

"The materials used in the Blade of Destruction are special materials found deep within a volcano."

"The one who forged the Blade of Destruction is none other than Uehara, the head of the forging department of our Hidden Mist Village."

"The first of the Great Grade Swords series among the items made for Minister Uehara."

"Suitable for ninjas who are skilled in assassination and possess fire-style abilities."

""

"start!"

Under the command of the ANBU ninjas, everyone stepped forward one by one.

Meanwhile, the ninjas who hadn't yet had their turn started discussing among themselves.

"A Great Grade Sword? Not a Zanpakuto?"

"Perhaps it's not as good as a Zanpakuto?"

"But it's definitely better than Liang Kuai Dao, which doesn't even have a name."

"Gaining the approval of a Zanpakuto is extremely difficult. So far, those who have gained the approval of a Zanpakuto are either geniuses or top-tier ninjas."

"I'm already satisfied with the opportunity to obtain a Great Sword."

"It's no worse than the Seven Ninja Swords."

Some people started mocking the Hozuki clan again.

"The Hozuki clan also wants to compare the Seven Ninja Swords with the Zanpakuto."

"But now it seems that the Seven Ninja Swords are at most Grade Swords, and they can't compare to Zanpakuto at all."

"Kisame Hoshigaki's performance is something that none of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen could achieve."

Yagura nodded as he observed the ninjas' behavior and listened to their whispered discussions.

"The current popularity of ninja swords in Kirigakure has surpassed that of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist at their peak."

"The number of ninja swords that are repaired and forged will only increase."

"It's hard to say about Zanpakuto, but Great Grade Swords and Good Grade Swords, especially Good Grade Swords, are basically no challenge for Xiu."

"Among the fine swords, the broadsword has just been revived by Yoshiki Hoshigaki, who created the Iwashi school."

"In the future, the strength of my Hidden Mist Village will only grow stronger."

"The force that caused the disappearance of three generations of predecessors should not be underestimated."
