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

Kisame made two fatal mistakes in his life:

Weakness, and blind loyalty.

Although he had long seen through the falseness of this world, he lacked the power to change it, which is why he was tempted by Obito to see the world created by the Infinite Tsukuyomi.

A world that is forever peaceful and beautiful.

Kisame believed it from the bottom of his heart and gave everything for it without any regrets.

But in the end, it all came to nothing, and even Obito betrayed him.

“Weakness is a sin, and blind loyalty to superiors is also unacceptable.”

Kisame sighed, his gaze sweeping across the wide river surface and looking towards the distant horizon.

In any case, from today onwards, he is Kisame Hoshigaki.

Since I have the chance to live again, I must live for myself this time.

He is who he is, Kisame Hoshigaki, neither a follower nor a background figure to highlight anyone else.

After spending some time organizing my thoughts...

Kisame refocused his attention on his current predicament.

This year is Konoha Year 44, six or seven years after the end of the Second Shinobi World War. After a period of peace, conflicts have gradually arisen again in the shinobi world.

Recently, Kisame's village, Kirigakure, and Sunagakure, another of the Five Great Ninja Villages, have clashed over iron ore resources on a peninsula in the southern sea.

The two sides were deadlocked for a time.

Just then, an unidentified group of ninjas infiltrated the Land of Water, destroying bridges and dams everywhere and causing immense damage.

Even a fool would know it was done by ninjas from Sunagakure.

Thus, the young Kisame received a mission and joined one of the many squads to search for and eliminate enemies within the territory.

A day earlier, Kisame's squad discovered the damaged dam and immediately summoned workers to repair it.

As a genin who had trained for two years, Kisame and his companions' temporary mission was to stay here, ensure the repair work was completed smoothly, and guard against another enemy attack.

Meanwhile, their superior in this operation—Raiga Kurosuki, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist—led another group of elite ninjas to pursue the enemy, vowing to annihilate them within the Land of Water.

Kisame picked up his ninja sword and paced back and forth on the dam, pretending to patrol while getting used to his new body.

Huh?

During this process, his eyes suddenly lit up when he spotted a pile of bright white lime, stacked like a small mountain, clearly intended for repairing the dam.

Kisame walked over without making a sound, casually collected some lime, and hid it in his sleeve.

Before he transmigrated, he was a fighting enthusiast, naturally combative but kind-hearted. In order to deal with thugs and bad guys, he practiced street fighting techniques for a long time.

His most famous feat was using a small pair of scissors to seriously injure three assailants who were attempting to attack a woman jogging at night in a park. He was not only commended by the relevant authorities but also made the news and became a local celebrity.

When asked why he carries a pair of scissors with him when he goes for a run, he honestly replied:

Because machetes are not allowed.

Scissors are not classified as controlled knives and can be legally carried.

In addition, compared with machetes, scissors can also cause incredibly powerful stab wounds, and they are more concealed, making them harder for criminals to defend against.

In the concept of unrestricted combat, everyday objects like scissors and lime are readily available weapons that can be used at any time.

It's truly an essential item for home and travel, and for punishing evil and promoting good.

After stuffing two pounds of lime into his sleeve, Kisame left satisfied and continued his patrol.

A day passed quickly.

As the sun sets, the sky is filled with the glow of the sunset, and the water ripples with light, as if draped in a golden coat.

The emergency repairs to the dam have been successfully completed. The workers, who had been busy all day, chatted and laughed as they packed up their tools, preparing to head to a pub in a nearby town for a drink.

Kisame and his companions are about to leave this place and head to the next mission area to continue searching for traces of the enemy.

However, this harmonious and peaceful atmosphere was suddenly shattered.

boom.

Not far away, a violent explosion came from the woods on the shore, accompanied by towering flames and thick black smoke.

Immediately afterwards, another burst of lightning flashed deep in the forest. The blue lightning transformed into the shape of a dragon, raging everywhere and causing many trees to fall.

A flock of birds were startled and fled from the forest, flying over Kisame and the others.

Such a strong chakra response.

Kisame's pupils contracted as he sensed powerful ninjas fighting, and that both sides were rapidly approaching the dam.

really.

A few seconds later, a figure emerged from the woods looking somewhat disheveled, his face still showing signs of shock.

It was a man with long green hair, his upper body wrapped in bandages, and he held a pair of weapons crackling with lightning in his hands.

He is none other than Raiga Kurosuki, one of the famous Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, the wielder of the Raiga Kiba, and the leader of this operation to eliminate the enemy, as well as Kisame's superior.

However, this elite Jonin from Kirigakure was covered in wounds and looked like a stray dog, having been chased here.

"An enemy attack! It's Sand Village ninja!"

"Lord Raiga is injured!"

Seeing the disheveled state of Kurozuki Raiga, everyone who remained on the dam was shocked and rushed over to help.

"Stop them!"

Raiga Kurosu roared at Kisame and the others, then used his Body Flicker Technique to transform into a bolt of lightning and pass through the crowd, fleeing downstream from the dam.

Upon hearing the order from his superior, the ever-honest and loyal Kisame instinctively picked up his ninja sword, ready to fight alongside his comrades to the death against the enemy.

But the next second, he suddenly woke up.

Even Raiga Kurosuki couldn't handle this enemy, so how could they, a group of genin, possibly withstand it?

At this time, Kisame was already one of the best among his peers, strong enough to be promoted to Chunin. However, due to his young age, his potential had not yet been fully developed, and he was far from reaching the level of a "tailless tailed beast" as described in the original work.

Just at this time.

"Ah!" "Ah!"

Several screams came from ahead.

He looked up and saw that several of his companions who were charging at the front had been hit by a strange fireball. Their bodies instantly evaporated, turning into dried corpses, their deaths incredibly horrific and tragic.

After killing the Hidden Mist ninja, the fireballs flew back to a woman and floated and circled behind her.

The woman was about twenty years old, with delicate features. Her green hair was tied in a bun, with two strands of orange bangs, showing her unique personality. Unlike the other Sand Village ninjas who covered themselves up completely, she wore a daring backless dress with a white bandage around her waist, brazenly showing off her good figure.

Beautiful yet dangerous.

Sunagakure Village, Scorching Release: Leaf Village.

Using his memories from before he traveled through time, Kisame immediately recognized the woman's identity.

Appearing alongside Yekura was a squad of more than ten members of the Sunagakure ANBU. They methodically deployed their encirclement, mercilessly slaughtering the Kirigakure ninja and workers, quickly staining the dam red with the blood of the dead.

Seeing this, Kisame didn't hesitate and turned to run.

He was no longer the ninja who blindly obeyed orders from his superiors.

Unfortunately, we were still a step too late.

Whoosh.

A Sand Village Jonin appeared like a ghost. This person had a cold expression and launched a rapid and fierce attack on Kisame, wielding a kunai.

Kisame, of course, would not sit idly by and wait to die. Instead, his eyes flashed with ferocity as he fought back with all his might.

Dangdang Dangdang!

The kunai and ninja swords in their hands clashed fiercely, sparking dazzling flashes and producing a continuous clang of metal.

Oh?

During the fight, the Sand Village Jonin was surprised to find that the kid in front of him seemed to have some skill, as he was able to hold out against him for so long.

But that's it.

He suddenly changed his tactics.

Caught off guard, Kisame's ninja sword was knocked away, and he immediately lost his balance, leaving him vulnerable all over.

"Go to hell, brat."

The Sand Village Jonin sneered as he thrust a kunai into Kisame's heart.

At the critical moment.

Kisame suddenly swung his arm, and a large ball of quicklime flew out from his sleeve, instantly smearing the face of the Sand Village Jonin at such close range.

"what!"

The Sand Village Jonin immediately let out a scream. A large amount of lime entered his eyes, causing intense stinging pain and temporarily blinding him.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Kisame immediately increased the distance between himself and his opponent, and fled for his life.

But after running only a few steps, he felt an unbearable heat coming from behind him.

He turned around abruptly and saw a scorching fireball chasing after him. In an instant, it exploded with a huge burst of fire that engulfed everything.

Despite Kisame's best efforts to dodge, he was still blasted away and suffered serious injuries.

but--

This is his escape route!

124. I already impersonated someone before you did.

"Obito, my time is running out. Before I die, I will tell you how to create a dream world and become its savior. Cough cough... Whether you want to listen or not is up to you. Neither White Zetsu nor I will stop you..."

Ban coughed up blood as he spoke, as if he might die at any moment.
