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

Despite the excruciating pain in his arm, Matt Day gave the order to Kay.

A qualified ninja must always prioritize completing the mission. Might Guy, despite being a perennial genin, always kept this in mind.

"Okay." Kai gritted his teeth and carried his father on his back, quickly heading towards the camp where the Konoha army was stationed.

at the same time.

Inside a tent with a red and white fan pattern printed on it, at the Konoha army camp.

Fugaku Uchiha, who just turned thirty this year, is the head of the Uchiha clan and is currently confronting the Hyuga brothers, Hiashi and Hizashi, who have come to demand an explanation.

At Hiashi Hyuga's prompting, the Hyuga branch family ninja who had survived Kisame's attacks recounted his ordeal with righteous indignation.

"You're saying that one of our Uchiha Jonin ambushed your Hyuga clan's forces, killing everyone and stealing the Byakugan from a main branch elder? What a joke."

Fugaku Uchiha crossed his arms, frowned, and replied with a look of disdain.

"Chief Fugaku, are you saying... our people are lying?"

Upon hearing this, Hiashi Hyuga's expression immediately turned displeased. He promptly took out a portrait and handed it to Fugaku, saying, "According to the survivor's description, this is what that Uchiha ninja looked like."

Oh?

Fugaku took the portrait with some skepticism, examined it carefully, and his expression quickly turned to one of great surprise.

He frowned, pointed at the flaming fan in the portrait, and asked the Hyuga clansman with a serious expression, "Does the Uchiha ninja you mentioned really have this kind of weapon?"

After receiving confirmation from the latter, Fugaku shook his head repeatedly, muttering, "Impossible, absolutely impossible."

"Clan Chief Fugaku, what's impossible? Please explain." Hyuga Hiashi noticed Fugaku's unusual behavior and pressed him for an explanation.

"This fan is the Flame Fan, the treasure of our Uchiha clan, but it was taken away by Madara Uchiha, who betrayed Konoha, decades ago."

Fugaku slowly explained, and pointing to the face in the portrait, he said something even more shocking: "And this person looks just like a young Uchiha Madara."

"What? This is impossible!"

Upon hearing this, Hiashi Hyuga snapped out of his daze and immediately said decisively, "Madara Uchiha was killed by the First Hokage long ago. Even if he hadn't died, he would be over seventy years old now, how could he be like this?"

"That's why I said someone is deliberately impersonating the long-dead Uchiha Madara to incite infighting among us. As for his Sharingan, it was probably stolen, just like his Byakugan. What do you think, Clan Chief Hiashi?"

Fugaku Uchiha made this judgment decisively and then questioned Hiashi Hyuga.

"I'm afraid your word alone is not enough to convince me."

Hiashi Hyuga shook his head, not intending to let the matter rest so easily.

"How about this?"

Fugaku pondered for a moment before speaking, "Our most urgent task right now is to lead our army and work together to conquer Kirigakure. If we can win this victory, the biggest beneficiaries will be the Uchiha and Hyuga clans who led from the front. I believe the Hiashi clan leader won't object to that."

“That’s right.” Hiashi Hyuga nodded.

"Therefore, I propose that we set this matter aside for now and reopen the investigation after we have destroyed Kirigakure and completely occupied the Land of Water. At that time, I will definitely give Chief Hiashi a satisfactory explanation. What do you think?"

Fugaku Uchiha looked at Hiashi Hyuga and spoke sincerely, extending a hand to the latter.

"...Okay, I'll trust you this once."

Hiashi Hyuga said in a deep voice, shaking hands with Fugaku.

The two sides have reached a temporary consensus.

A moment later, the brothers Hiashi and Hizashi left the Uchiha clan's tent.

"Clan leader, do you really believe what Uchiha Fugaku said?"

Hyuga Hizashi couldn't help but ask.

Although he was Hiashi's younger brother, the Hyuga clan has always had strict rules, and the main family and branch families must follow strict etiquette.

Therefore, in any situation, Hizashi always addresses Hyuga Hiashi as "Clan Chief" rather than "Brother".

"This matter is indeed a bit strange and requires further investigation. However, as Fugaku Uchiha said, the most important thing right now is to defeat Kirigakure and win this war. As far as I know, that guy seems to want to use the credit for conquering Kirigakure to make a run for the Fourth Hokage position."

Hiashi Hyuga rested his chin on his hand and said in a deep voice.

"Does Fugaku Uchiha want to compete for the position of Fourth Hokage?"

Hyuga Hizashi was taken aback upon hearing this.

In recent years, there have indeed been constant rumors in the village that the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, is considering stepping down and handing over the reins to a more capable successor due to his advanced age.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Konoha will officially begin the selection process for the Fourth Hokage after the Third Shinobi World War ends.

Unexpectedly, the Uchiha clan also began to covet the Hokage position.

"Therefore, our Hyuga clan must be the first to attack Kirigakure before the Uchiha clan, and we cannot let Fugaku succeed."

Hiashi Hyuga sneered.

Although he had no intention of competing for the Hokage position, he could not stand by and watch Fugaku Uchiha steal the credit and suppress the momentum of the Hyuga clan.

After all, the Hyuga clan is the strongest and largest clan in Konoha.

After returning to camp.

Under Hiashi Hyuga's command, the Hyuga clan ninjas were the first to set off, venturing deep into the heart of the Land of Water.

On the other side, after receiving the news, Fugaku Uchiha also quickly ordered the Uchiha clan to end their rest and immediately give chase.

The Konoha army mobilized once again.

The Uchiha and Hyuga clans were locked in a fierce competition, each vying for the title of being the first to conquer Kirigakure.

In the eyes of these Konoha ninjas, the Hidden Mist Village is now like a defenseless young girl, at their mercy.

Might Guy and his group had just returned to the Konoha army when they discovered that the army had already set off again.

After they reported what they had encountered, it did not attract the attention of their superiors, because at this time, the Konoha ninjas were all rushing forward, eager to flatten Kirigakure.

Looking down from mid-air, more than 5,000 Konoha ninjas were advancing in a mighty procession through the Land of Water, getting closer and closer to Kirigakure.

These people were unaware that an unprecedented nightmare awaited them.

127. Kaguya's rebellion was suppressed by one person.

Kisame arrived at a deserted place.

He removed his Sharingan and Byakugan, replaced them with his own dead fish eyes, then deactivated his transformation and put away his Flame Fan.

Then put on a suit and carry the Samehada sword on your back.

It's time to return to Kirigakure.

One day later.

In the distance, Kisame saw the familiar village, shrouded in a perpetual, light mist.

At this moment, Kirigakure was in complete chaos.

Could it be that the Konoha ninja have already attacked?

Kisame frowned slightly. When he returned to the village, he found that the enemy had not yet arrived, but Kirigakure itself was in turmoil.

"Konoha's 5,000-strong army is coming! If we don't escape now, we'll miss our chance!"

On the street, someone was shouting in panic.

Many Kirigakure ninjas and villagers, along with their families and belongings, fled the village in all directions. Everyone was in a panic, scrambling to escape the village, and stampedes frequently occurred due to the overcrowding.

The entire Hidden Mist Village was in a state of utter devastation.

Before Konoha's army even arrived, Kirigakure was already on the verge of collapse, having disintegrated on its own.

Seeing the scene before him, Kisame was slightly surprised, but not unexpected.

The reason why Kirigakure has become like this—

On one hand, the village leadership was nearly paralyzed due to the mass deaths of the Mizukage and the Anbu, while the enemy army was advancing with overwhelming force. Staying at this point would be tantamount to courting death.

On the other hand, the Blood Mist policy, which began during the time of the Third Mizukage, had already caused widespread discontent among the people, causing Kirigakure to lose its cohesion.

Now that disaster is imminent, the Hidden Mist ninjas and villagers naturally scattered like birds and beasts.

Just then.

boom!

A violent explosion came from the direction of the Water Shadow Building, accompanied by deafening shouts and sounds of fighting.

A ninja from the mist came fleeing in a disheveled state from that direction.

"How is this going?"

Kisame flashed forward, blocking the man's path like a mountain, grabbed the latter's collar, and asked.

He learned from the other party that the village was now under the management of the master, but the powerful ninja clan of Kirigakure, the Kaguya clan, was dissatisfied with this and thus plotted a rebellion.

Just now, they stormed into the Mizukage Building, intending to kill the Yuan Shi and make the Kaguya clan patriarch the Mizukage.

The Kaguya clan?

Kisame casually tossed the Mist Ninja aside, lost in thought.

The Kaguya clan possesses the bloodline limit "Shikotsumyaku" and has maintained a long-standing friendship with the Hyuga clan of Konoha. They are suspected to be descendants of Hamura Otsutsuki, the younger brother of the Sage of Six Paths.

In the world of Naruto, there is such a family:

He is a descendant of the Six Paths, and almost all his family members are war fanatics and psychopaths. His clan was wiped out for rebelling, and only one member survived, becoming a rogue ninja and following Orochimaru.

This clan may not necessarily be the Uchiha clan of Konoha; it could also be the Kaguya clan of Kirigakure.

It can be said that the Kaguya clan is equivalent to the Uchiha clan of Kirigakure.

Kisame discovered that this clan was indeed full of lunatics with abnormal thought processes.

With a formidable enemy at hand, the Kaguya clan is still plotting a rebellion to seize control of Kirigakure. What will be the point of all their efforts once Konoha's army arrives? Wouldn't it all be for nothing?

Do those guys from the Kaguya clan really think they can defeat Konoha's 5,000-strong army?

Arrogant and ignorant, utterly foolish.

This is the Kaguya clan. A ninja clan like this was doomed to perish sooner or later.
