Starting as the mastermind behind Naruto

Chapter 484 I'm scaring a little girl who loves to cry!

Pirates have no faith or honor.

No, perhaps the fluttering pirate flag represents their honor.

The Whitebeard Pirates want to wage a new war against Kisame Hoshigaki, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, for a pirate flag and Fishman Island, to deal with this guy who provoked the Whitebeard Pirates, and also to avenge Sasuke Uchiha.

Kisame Hoshigaki also participated in the battle to capture Sasuke Uchiha.

Sasuke Uchiha could understand this, but there was really no need for it.

If we don't attack Kisame Hoshigaki, we'll only lose face once; but if we do attack Kisame, we'll probably keep losing face in the future...

However, Sasuke Uchiha could not persuade him.

All Sasuke Uchiha could do was pass the message on to Kisame Hoshigaki…

This is incredibly embarrassing.

These companions were clearly thinking of taking the opportunity to avenge Sasuke, but Sasuke insisted on informing his enemies to avoid an awkward situation later.

This world is just too ridiculous!

Fishman Island.

This underwater island became Kisame Hoshigaki's territory.

When Kisame Hoshigaki declared his occupation of Fishman Island, there were fishmen who resisted or attempted to assassinate him, and all of them were executed by Kisame Hoshigaki.

Kisame Hoshigaki, a former member of the Hidden Mist Anbu and Akatsuki, is indifferent to killing and shows no mercy when he strikes.

cruel…

It gradually became synonymous with Kisame Hoshigaki.

For King Neptune of Fishman Island, Kisame Hoshigaki was someone he both loved and hated, respected and feared.

after all…

This guy did indeed keep many pirates and slave traders away from Fishman Island, and anyone who invaded Fishman Island would be killed by Kisame Hoshigaki.

However, Kisame Hoshigaki was equally ruthless towards his own people.

On the very first day Kisame Hoshigaki arrived, the entire Fishman Island was turned into a bloodbath by him. There were never any prisoners under Kisame's command, only blood-soaked corpses...

Fishman Island, inside the Dragon Palace.

King Neptune of Fishman Island is hosting a banquet for Kisame Hoshigaki today to thank him for eliminating Vander Decken IX and his Flying Pirates who were surrounding Fishman Island.

Because Vander Decken IX had been harassing Neptune's daughter, Princess White Star, for years, attempting to marry her, and would occasionally attack the tower where Princess White Star lived.

Now that Vander Decken IX and the Flying Pirates have been killed by Kisame Hoshigaki, Princess Shirahoshi's crisis is finally over.

Now, Princess Shirahoshi is finally able to leave the tower.

This mermaid princess, who has been protected in the tower by Neptune since childhood, will soon be twelve years old. She is very cute, with long pink hair draped over her body and a cute bun on her head. Her big eyes look very lively.

However, she was very tall.

Even though Princess Shirahoshi is only twelve years old today, she is already over ten meters tall. This world is truly outrageous... Kisame Hoshigaki, who is nearly two meters tall, looks very small in front of King Neptune's family.

Princess Shirahoshi swam quickly to her brother's side, curiously looking down at Kisame Hoshigaki, the guest who was drinking juice, and blinked involuntarily.

"Lord Kisame...do you like fruit juice?"

"yes…"

Kisame Hoshigaki put down his cup, looked up at Princess Shirahoshi, and grinned, revealing his mouthful of shark teeth: "Your Highness, don't you like juice?"

It was just an ordinary smile, but Kisame Hoshigaki managed to make it look like he was about to devour someone, which immediately scared Princess Shirahoshi so much that she shrank behind her father!

This behavior is incredibly rude to the guests!

After a long while, the tall mermaid girl timidly peeked out and whispered, "I...I like it..."

"Yeah?"

Kisame Hoshigaki's smile deepened, and he slowly nodded, saying, "I'm glad Your Highness likes it. If what we like is disliked by everyone else in the world... it makes me think this world is too strange."

Why does it feel strange?

Princess Shirahoshi wanted to peek out to catch a glimpse of Kisame, but upon seeing his smile, she couldn't help but tremble with fear.

Kisame Hoshigaki, still smiling, opened his palm, but the smile suddenly turned terrifying: "Because if this world is incompatible with us, then the world shouldn't exist; it should be destroyed..."

"what!"

Princess Shirahoshi's eyes instantly filled with tears, which streamed down her cheeks as she cried out, "Lord Kisame, I like juice!"

"..."

King Neptune's lips twitched involuntarily.

Bubbling...

Bubbling bubbling bubbling…

Just then, Kisame Hoshigaki's Den Den Mushi rang. He glanced up at Neptune and the others, slowly answered his Den Den Mushi, and said with a smile, "It's a bit inconvenient for me here..."

"What are you doing?"

A young man's voice came through the Den Den Mushi.

"Um…"

Kisame Hoshigaki looked up at Princess Shirahoshi, who was hiding behind King Neptune, and chuckled, saying, "Right now, Fish-Man Island is scaring a little guy who seems a bit of a crybaby... no, or rather, a big guy..."

"Can't you bunch of bastards just act like human beings?"

The young man on the Den Den Mushi couldn't help but curse, then got down to business: "Because you pulled down the Whitebeard Pirates' flag and provoked the entire crew, they're coming after you now!"

After saying that, the young man hung up the phone.

Clearly, the young man didn't care whether Kisame Hoshigaki could handle it, or rather, he believed that Kisame Hoshigaki could definitely handle it.

Kisame Hoshigaki slowly put away his Den Den Mushi, completely ignoring the trouble caused by the Whitebeard Pirates, and picked up the juice on the table again.

King Neptune was somewhat surprised by his calm demeanor.

However, for the sake of the bigger picture, King Neptune couldn't help but speak up: "Mr. Kisame, the Whitebeard Pirates are the strongest pirate crew in the world. We owe a great debt to them for the sake of Fishman Island..."

"What does that have to do with me?"

Kisame Hoshigaki couldn't help but smile.

"Kisame-san, please don't act impulsively..."

King Neptune gently soothed Kisame, saying in a deep voice, "Perhaps I can mediate this matter... and Jinbe will surely understand..."

"Don't worry."

Kisame Hoshigaki interrupted King Neptune, picked up his Samehada sword, slung it over his shoulder, and turned to walk out of the Ryugu Palace.

After taking a few steps, Kisame Hoshigaki seemed to remember something and said with a smile, "If King Neptune wants to contact the Whitebeard Pirates and that Jinbe guy, he can go ahead now... but I hope you think carefully about the consequences..."

This war…

It's still uncertain who will win and who will lose!

Although the Whitebeard Pirates were powerful and came with great force, Kisame was not without the power to resist. This was Fishman Island in the deep sea!

As long as the battle takes place at sea...

There are very few people in the whole world who can rival him, not to mention that as Uehara Naraku's subordinate, he has a powerful weapon in his hand!

Even if we are truly defeated...

Can he still continue being a member of Akatsuki?

"Kishame-sama..."

Princess Shirahoshi suddenly appeared from behind her father, struggling to speak, "Jinbe is a good person too! Why are you all..."

"You're too young."

Kisame Hoshigaki smiled at Princess Shirahoshi, then turned and walked away, leaving only his last words: "You'll understand when you grow up..."

When you grow up...

You'll realize how cruel this world is!

However, when Kisame Hoshigaki left Ryugu Castle and returned to his residence, he was surprised to see someone who was completely unexpected to him.

Jinpei, the Knight of the Sea.

Logically speaking, Jinbe should have stayed on Whitebeard's ship until the war broke out, but at this moment he inexplicably appeared on Fishman Island.

She even took the initiative to appear in front of Kisame.

"Um?"

When Kisame Hoshigaki saw Jinbe, a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips. His hand slowly tightened around the Samehada sword on his back: "Isn't this Mr. Jinbe? Have you come here to reclaim everything you once had?"

"No, I am not here to be your enemy."

Jinbe shook his head, looking at Kisame with a complicated expression, and said in a deep voice, "Lord Kisame, I came here hoping that you could plant Whitebeard's pirate flag back on Fishman Island and prevent this war from breaking out..."

Jinbe's feelings toward Kisame Hoshigaki are somewhat complicated.

Although Kisame Hoshigaki suddenly pulled a fast one when Kisame was heading to the Whitebeard Sea, seizing his position as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea and Fish-Man Island...

Although Kisame Hoshigaki killed many fishmen in Fishman City during this period, including some of Jinbe's former underlings, those fishmen had only themselves to blame...

but…

Jinbe had to admit that Kisame Hoshigaki had done a good job as well.

Or rather, Kisame Hoshigaki did it better than him.

Under Kisame Hoshigaki's protection, Fishman Island has been free of pirates and slave traders for some time now.

No matter how strong a pirate is, they can't escape Kisame Hoshigaki's underwater pursuit. This guy is ruthless when it comes to killing fish-men or mermaids...

This is quite complicated for Jinbe.

Furthermore, Jinbe was well aware that those fish-men were the root cause of the tension between Fishman Island and humans, but he simply couldn't bring himself to do it...

This Kisame Hoshigaki has much more guts than him.

Kisame Hoshigaki, however, didn't care what Jinbe was thinking. He simply shook his head, grinned, and said, "If you want war, then bring it on... They defeated me, which will just help you reclaim these positions..."

"I don't care about those things!"

Jinbe quickly shook his head and solemnly continued to persuade him: "Do you know what your war with the Whitebeard Pirates really means?"

This time, it's Whitebeard and all sixteen squads mobilized, including you, who recently assisted the Navy in the encirclement and suppression of Uchiha Sasuke and Kisame Hoshigaki. I don't want to see you die in this war!

"..."

Kisame Hoshigaki couldn't help but blink his small eyes.

What's wrong with this world? Did Jinbe arrive ahead of time to warn his enemy?

Jinbe looked at Kisame Hoshigaki and said in a deep voice, "Lord Kisame, my return to Fishman Island was never to seize empty titles, but to stop the war... I don't want to see you go astray. Please come with me and apologize to Whitebeard!"
