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

After Kisame left the Anbu base, he looked back once more.

Ah, they've taken the bait.

He knew that the pufferfish demon wouldn't be able to restrain himself.

The plan is proceeding step by step according to Kisame's expectations.

Instead of following the instructions of the pufferfish demon to catch up with the secret service troops sent by Yagura Karatachi, he returned to the mountain and lay in ambush outside the cave.

Three days later.

As expected, the group of Kirigakure ANBU brought Nohara Rin back and took her into the cave.

Soon, Yagura Karatachi arrived, carrying a huge jar covered with intricate sealing incantations.

That should be the Mitsuo Isobu in there.

Kisame immediately used the ANBU's communication methods to notify Fuguki, and waited for the latter's main force to arrive.

During this period.

Inside the cave, a violent fluctuation of chakra emanated, accompanied by a roar that shook the earth—clearly, Madara Uchiha had transplanted the Three-Tails Isobu into Rin Nohara's body.

Not long after.

Rin Nohara, who was still unconscious, was brought out again by the Kirigakure Anbu.

"Let's begin."

Nearly a hundred members of the Hidden Mist Anbu, following the Mizukage's orders, once again led Nohara Rin to a designated location in the direction of Konoha to prepare for the next step of their plan.

"Oh!"

Kisame created a shadow clone and quietly followed, leaving his main body to wait there.

Could it be that Fugu Demon has suddenly become suspicious and isn't coming?

Just as Kisame was getting impatient and preparing to storm the cave alone, he turned around and saw that Fuguki was leading a trusted force, charging into the area with great momentum.

Kisame was overjoyed and quickly stepped forward to report to the pufferfish demon:

"My lord, I personally witnessed the Fourth Mizukage bring the Three-Tails, Isobu, and transplant it into a Konoha ninja. The Mizukage actually sold a tailed beast; this is an act of betraying the village!"

"Hmph, I already know that. This time, let's see how Yagura Karatachi tries to deny it!"

The pufferfish demon snorted coldly and led his men into the cave.

Kisame deliberately lagged behind.

The group, exuding murderous intent, passed through the passageway and arrived at the underground chamber, where they indeed saw Yagura Karatachi with a clone of Madara Uchiha.

At this moment, the two were standing in front of the glass container that was taller than a person, seemingly about to eliminate Hozuki Mangetsu.

"Lord Fugu Demon, save me!"

Upon discovering the arrival of Hozuki Mangetsu and the others, he was overjoyed and shouted loudly.

Ok?

Madara Uchiha and Yagura Karatachi both turned around.

119. The Fisherman's Profit

Inside the cave.

Fuguki, leading a large group of ANBU subordinates, confronted Uchiha Madara and Yagura Karatachi.

"Fourth Mizukage, what exactly is going on? Why did you take the Three-Tails out of the village without permission, sell it to outsiders, and even kidnap Hozuki Mangetsu?"

The pufferfish demon, holding the sharkskin, questioned him sharply.

"Lord Fuguki, the Mizukage has been controlled by genjutsu, and the opponent is a member of the Uchiha clan!"

Before Yagura and Madara could speak, Hozuki Mangetsu, who was in the cage, quickly reminded them.

what? !

The pufferfish demon and the others were utterly astonished upon hearing this.

Just then.

"Kill them," Madara Uchiha coldly ordered.

"Yes." Yagura nodded blankly, his eyes immediately transforming into the shape of Sharingan.

Whoosh.

The Fourth Mizukage, wielding a large black iron rod, charged straight at the Fuguki.

clang!

The pufferfish demon raised Samehada to block Yagura's blow, sparks flying.

A great battle was about to begin.

A few minutes later.

Rumble.

With a deafening roar that shook the earth, a surging torrent of water, like a roaring dragon, swept dozens of members of the Mist Shadows' secret service out of the cave.

This indicates that someone used a large-scale water-style ninjutsu.

Whoosh whoosh.

Three figures then rushed out of the cave and landed in a clearing in the forest.

The pufferfish demon glanced back and saw that nearly half of his men had been lost, and his expression turned extremely ugly.

Madara and Yagura, who were opposite him, were completely unharmed.

Splash!

Yagura swiftly formed hand seals, creating a circular water mirror in front of him. From the mirror emerged a person identical to the pufferfish demon, launching a fierce attack on it.

Water Release: Water Mirror Technique.

This is the signature move of Yagura Karatachi, the Fourth Mizukage. It allows him to use a water mirror to reflect a copy of the enemy and to use the same ninjutsu as the enemy.

The pufferfish demon was immediately plunged into a fierce battle.

At that moment, Madara Uchiha twisted his neck, twirled his fingers, and took a step forward.

"It's been a long time since I've stretched my muscles."

He muttered something to himself, and as soon as he finished speaking, chakra erupted from the soles of his feet, and he used the Body Flicker Technique to attack the group of Fuguki's subordinates.

"Everyone, attack together! If we can take down this guy, we can break the genjutsu on the Fourth Mizukage!"

A group of Hidden Mist members swarmed forward.

Water Release: Water Fang Bullet!

As several members of the Dark Guard completed their hand seals, several streams of water rushed towards Madara. These streams of water were highly compressed and added with a rotating force, making them resemble water tornadoes with astonishing destructive power.

"hehe."

To everyone's surprise, Madara didn't dodge or evade. Instead, a mocking smile appeared on his lips. Facing the incoming water fang bullets, he took out the Flame Fan from behind him and unleashed it.

Chi Chi Chi.

The water-blast bombs struck the surface of the Flame Fan, but instead of destroying it as everyone expected, they reflected the flames like sunlight off a mirror.

The Uchiha clan rebounded.

This is the Flame Fan's most powerful ability. It is made from a part of the Divine Tree, and its texture is hard yet flexible, naturally possessing the ability to deflect ninjutsu.

Shhhhhh.

After being deflected, the water-tooth bullets returned along the same path at an even faster speed, instantly killing the unsuspecting members of the Mist Shadow Anbu.

"Hahaha!"

Madara Uchiha laughed wildly, holding a flame fan and activating his Sharingan. He charged towards the remaining Hidden Mist Anbu like a tiger among sheep, unleashing a merciless massacre upon them.

"Ahhhh!"

Amidst a series of screams, the pufferfish demon's men fell one after another, and were quickly slaughtered, leaving not a single survivor.

wrong.

There was one survivor.

That was Kisame Hoshigaki, hiding in the shadows.

Kisame was a very cautious person, especially when facing a terrifying enemy like Madara Uchiha, he dared not be careless.

That's why he brought in the pufferfish demon and others, using them as cannon fodder to test the enemy's strength.

After some secret observation and analysis, he had a basic understanding of the combat power of Madara Uchiha's clone.

With the help of the Flame Fan, Madara's clone possessed the strength of a newly initiated Kage, which is why it was able to sweep through a group of Hidden Mist Anbu members.

But that's how it is.

Madara Uchiha was already very old, his main body had difficulty moving, and he had lost his Rinnegan. He could only rely on the power of the Gedo Mazo to prolong his life.

Under such circumstances, his clone is destined to be no stronger than that.

When Madara ended the battle.

the other side.

With a "crack," the large iron bar in Yagura's hand broke in two, and he stumbled back several steps before kneeling on the ground.

Opposite him, the Samehada in the pufferfish demon's hand was no longer in its initial form, wrapped in bandages, but had revealed its true form:

A strange, deep blue fish with a body covered in sharp barbs and a gaping, blood-red mouth.

In the battle just now, when the situation was unfavorable to him, Fuguki took advantage of Samehada's ability to absorb the opponent's chakra, seized the opportunity, and slashed at the clone, successfully absorbing the latter's chakra.

In this way, he not only broke Yagura's Water Mirror Technique, but also used the absorbed chakra for his own purposes, replenishing a large amount of his stamina.

Then, the pufferfish launched a counterattack, growing stronger with each battle, and finally used Samehada to sever Yagura's weapon, severely injuring the latter.
