Ninja World: I, Kisame Hoshigaki, am no longer human!

Several days later.

In a small town within the Land of Water.

Kisame found a private clinic, sneaked in at night, knocked the doctor unconscious, and borrowed the clinic's operating room.

He patted the face on his chest and took out Yekura, Shizune, and the freezer containing the salamander's venom sacs all at once.

"It's you?!"

After regaining consciousness while clutching her head, Shizune saw Kisame's face and finally realized who had kidnapped her.

"Don't be nervous or afraid. I just need your help with a small matter. I'll let you go as soon as it's done."

Kisame smiled and showed Shizune the venom sac of the salamander, then asked her to perform a transplant on him.

"You want to have this transplanted into your body?"

When Shizune learned what the poison sac was, her eyes widened. Her first thought was that Kisame was courting death.

That's a madman.

"Jingyin, I believe in you. This level of transplant surgery shouldn't be a problem for you, right?"

As Kisame spoke, he took off his shirt and lay down on the operating table.

Shizune glanced at Kisame, then at Yekura standing beside her. The latter stared at her silently, a scorching fireball floating in his palm.

It seems that if she doesn't agree to perform the surgery on Kisame, she'll probably be turned into a dried-up corpse by Yekura's Scorch Release.

Left with no other choice, Shizune had to accept her situation.

but.

"I...I'm not sure."

She hesitated for a moment, but then told the truth. She had performed many organ transplant surgeries, but this was the first time she had ever experienced one this dangerous.

No experience whatsoever.

Shizune knew that if the surgery failed by accident, she would be even more likely to die.

So she asked Kisame to give her a few more days to prepare and do her homework before performing the surgery on him.

"No need for all that trouble. I happen to have a successful case here. You just need to follow the instructions. It's very simple."

Kisame said this.

Then, he took out Hanzo the Salamander's body and placed it on another operating table.

"He, he is..."

Shizune stared at Hanzo's corpse, her gaze gradually turning to horror.

117. Surgery, Reunion, and Homecoming

Popular recommendation:

In the operating room.

When Shizune learned that the corpse Kisame had brought out was actually Hanzo the Salamander, the leader of Amegakure, she was completely stunned.

The title of demigod is known to everyone in the ninja world.

In this world, Shizune's most admired person is undoubtedly Tsunade; in her heart, Lady Tsunade is the most outstanding ninja.

However, even Tsunade, who is always proud, confident, and looks down on everyone, shows a solemn respect when she mentions Hanzo.

After all, during the Second Shinobi World War, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru were cornered by Hanzo. Even the title of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha was bestowed upon them by him.

But now, the corpse of this demigod of the ninja world lies right in front of Shizune.

"You...killed a demigod?!"

Shizune stared at Kisame in disbelief and asked in a trembling voice.

"It was just a sneak attack, nothing to brag about."

Kisame glossed over the matter with a single sentence, then raised his finger and used a sewing needle to cut open Hanzo's lower abdomen, showing Shizune the location of the poison sac inside Hanzo's body.

At his command, Shizune put on a gas mask and gloves and approached Hanzo's body for a close examination.

Ten minutes later.

"Alright, let's begin."

Kisame lay back on the operating table and, without saying a word, used the suture needle to cut open his own abdomen, revealing his bloodied internal organs.

He did not use anesthesia because his body had a high tolerance to drugs, and even if he used anesthesia, it would not have much effect.

"I'm warning you, focus on the surgery and don't try anything suspicious."

Yekura distrusted Shizune and unleashed her Scorching Release: Fireball again, keeping a close eye on her every move.

"Hey, don't be so harsh on children, you should encourage them more."

Kisame stopped Yokura and gave Shizune a smile.

The two played opposite roles, one good cop and the other bad cop.

"Whoo~"

Shizune took a deep breath and carefully removed the salamander venom sac from the freezer, beginning the transplant surgery.

Three hours later.

As it turns out, Kisame's judgment was quite good; Shizune did not disappoint him.

She was an excellent medical ninja, and the presence of Hanzo's corpse on site served as a case study, greatly reducing the difficulty of the surgery.

In addition, during the surgery, all the suturing work was done by Kisame, the patient, using suture needles and silent techniques.

The three-pronged approach made this originally difficult transplant surgery go incredibly smoothly, with almost no mishaps along the way.

Shhhhhh.

At the end of the surgery, Kisame's index finger, like a butterfly flitting through flowers, with a chakra thread tied to the end of the needle, stitched his abdomen back together.

Shizune stepped forward, formed a hand seal, and pressed it against his lower abdomen.

Hey.

A soft blue light emanated from her palm, quickly healing Kisame's wounds completely.

"All right."

Shizune withdrew her hands, finally letting out a sigh of relief. When she removed her gas mask, she was already drenched in sweat.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Kisame was very satisfied with the surgery.

"Don't get too excited yet. We still need to observe for a while to see if there is any rejection reaction."

As a medical ninja, Shizune, with a serious and responsible attitude, gave Kisame these instructions.

"Don't worry, everything that has entered my body so far has been very well behaved and has not caused any problems."

Kisame said confidently, touching his belly and feeling the powerful throbbing of the venom sac through his skin.

"That's for the best. So, may I leave now?"

Shizune hesitated for a moment, then tentatively asked.

She remembered Kisame's promise that if she successfully completed the surgery, she would regain her freedom and return to Konoha.

"Don't be in such a hurry. Let's take a look at the surgery you performed yourself and see how it went."

As soon as Kisame finished speaking, he suddenly opened his mouth and spewed a cloud of purple poisonous mist at Shizune.

It's a verbal attack.

"Cough cough..."

Silent was unable to dodge in time and was attacked by the poisonous gas of the salamander, causing her to cough violently.

She quickly became paralyzed, unable to stand, and her legs gave way, causing her to fall to the ground.

At that moment, Kisame reached out a large hand to support Shizune and fed her the antidote.

"Jingyin, I've suddenly changed my mind because I've realized I need a private doctor, the kind who can treat my injuries and perform surgery anytime. Congratulations on being hired."

Kisame revealed a devilish smile, and without waiting for Shizune's reply, he sucked her back into the Elysium Box amidst her terrified expression.

We are currently in the midst of the Third Shinobi World War.

Kisame wasn't sure if he would get injured later, but having Shizune, a medical ninja, by his side made him feel much more at ease.

After successfully transplanting the venom sac of the salamander, Kisame spent a night figuring out two ways to use the venom.

The first method involves spraying poison mist from the mouth, which can be used to ambush enemies at close to medium range, causing them to collapse from poison. Shizune had used a similar ninjutsu when she fought Kisame before, which inspired him.

The second method involves compressing high-concentration poisonous fog into liquid and storing it. This liquid can be applied to weapons or added to food, making it very convenient to use.

One day later.

Kisame never forgot that there was a woman still waiting for him.

After more than half a year, he finally returned to the small town where he had met the Snow Woman.

"Kisame-san".

Inside the room, the Snow Woman hugged Kisame tightly, weeping with joy.

In the six months since Kisame left, she has worried about him every day. As time goes by, her anxiety grows and she suffers from insomnia night after night.

He has lost a lot of weight.

"I am back."

Kisame gently patted Yuki-onna's back and said apologetically.

There's not much else to say; Kisame naturally offered Yuki-onna some comforting words.
