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

Jiraiya nodded, then walked to the opposite side of Kisame, stopping a few meters away from him, and said, "As expected of Kisame Hoshigaki, he managed to break free from the genjutsu world after being hit by the Toad Song. It's truly admirable."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kisame slowly raised his head, and his eyes, which should have been blank, had indeed regained their clarity.

"I thought defeating Nagato meant victory. I never expected to be ambushed by you guys." Kisame spat lightly, his expression full of disdain, clearly very dissatisfied with Jiraiya and the others' sneak attack.

“I know you are proud and arrogant and cannot accept such an ending. But what if I told you that the Great Toad Sage of Mount Myōboku foresaw your death two years ago?”

Jiraiya looked at Kisame with some pity and said, "In the future that the Great Toad Sage saw, you were destined to die. That's why Konoha tolerated all your unreasonable demands. Now it's time for you to pay your debt. But then again, you did have your moment of glory and left the title of demigod in the history of the ninja world. You didn't live in vain, did you?"

"Are you saying all this so you can look down on me and mock me before I die? Jiraiya, what exactly are you trying to say? Stop beating around the bush."

Kisame snorted coldly and responded impatiently.

"I have only one question. Tell me everything you know about Naruto Uzumaki, the Child of Prophecy, without missing a single detail."

Jiraiya said in a deep voice, interrogating Kisame with a serious expression, and promised, "In return, I promise to give you, this demigod of the ninja world, a quick and dignified death. Otherwise, prepare to face all kinds of torture from the Konoha Interrogation Department. I guarantee it will make you wish you were dead."

"Naruto is indeed the child of prophecy, that's the only thing I know and am certain of, but..."

Kisame didn't keep them in suspense, but abruptly changed his tone halfway through his sentence, "What's a child of prophecy? I, Kisame Hoshigaki, have never believed in any prophecies. Whether it's Nagato or Naruto Uzumaki, I, Kisame Hoshigaki, have never taken them seriously. The one who will change this world is not some so-called child of prophecy, but me!"

His expression gradually turned fanatical, and he almost roared these words from his throat.

"Even now, they are still stubbornly clinging to their delusions. Despite being prisoners, they remain immersed in unrealistic fantasies. It's truly pathetic."

Jiraiya shook his head, not intending to talk to Kisame any longer, and then glanced at Onoki in mid-air, signaling the latter that he could make his move.

"Kisame Hoshigaki, your death is nigh. Prepare to face your fate. In the name of the Third Tsuchikage, I will end your life!"

Onoki shouted, raising his hands again, revealing a translucent cube in the center of his palms.

"Haha, hahaha..."

Kisame suddenly burst into maniacal laughter. No one knew where he got the strength from, but his muscles tensed up and veins bulged as an explosive force surged from his body, instantly forming a chakra shockwave that spread to a distance of tens of meters around him.

what? !

Everyone was shocked. Under the impact of this force, Onoki swayed and almost fell from mid-air. His Dust Release ninjutsu, which was about to be completed, was also interrupted.

Click.

The chains in the hands of Minato Namikaze and Hiruzen Sarutobi were also broken by Kisame's force, and the two retreated dozens of meters in shock.

Can't this subdue him?

Jiraiya's expression also changed drastically, but with the help of Fukasaku and Shima, he managed to withstand the chakra shockwave released by Kisame and prepared to go all out to kill him.

But then, something unexpected happened.

"Cough cough cough..."

After Kisame released the last of his violent energy, he suddenly knelt on the ground and coughed violently, spitting out a large amount of blood that dripped onto the snow.

It turned out he was already at his last gasp. That attack just now was nothing more than a desperate counterattack before his death.

"Listen up, all of you!"

Kisame wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, revealing a sinister grin, and shouted at Jiraiya and the others, "In this world, no one can judge me! Because I am Kisame Hoshigaki!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hands and quickly formed a hand seal.

"Oh no, he's trying to escape! Stop him!" Onoki shouted as soon as he saw this. But the next second, his pupils shrank.

Because Kisame's purpose in casting the spell and forming the hand seals was not to escape, but to summon a large water prison several meters in diameter and trap himself inside.

What is he doing?

Everyone was filled with astonishment until they saw sharks appear in the water prison. Smelling the blood, they frantically pounced on Kisame, opening their gaping maws to tear apart and devour his massive body...

The blood quickly spread throughout the water prison, turning it a deep reddish-black color.

Before the ruins, all was silent. Everyone watched this horrifying scene in silence, shocked by Kisame Hoshigaki's actions.

This man, in order to avoid dying at the hands of his enemies, actually summoned a shark that bit him to death, ending his sinful yet legendary life in such a tragic way.

With a loud bang.

With Kisame's death, the water prison suddenly collapsed, turning into countless drops of blood that stained the snow-covered ground red. On the snow, there were also some remaining human bones and chunks of flesh, a horrifying sight.

"What a terrifying enemy."

After a long pause, Onoki came to his senses and sighed. Thankfully, such an enemy was finally dead and would no longer pose a threat to the peace and stability of the ninja world.

"Just as the Great Toad Immortal predicted."

Jiraiya looked at the pool of blood on the ground and murmured, "Kisame Hoshigaki, you probably don't know that the scene I saw in my dream was you trapped in a water prison, being devoured by a group of sharks."

It's ironic, really.

In order to defy fate, Kisame chose to end his life by suicide, but the result was exactly the same as the scene predicted by Gamamaru.

If he hadn't resisted and had silently accepted his fate, it would have proven that Gamamaru's prophecy wasn't entirely accurate. Although he ultimately couldn't escape death anyway.

Perhaps this is destiny ordained by fate.

No one can defy it, because everything is predetermined; Kisame Hoshigaki is the best example of this.

"ended."

Raikage Ai walked up to the bloodstains, examined Kisame's remaining bones and flesh fragments, and only stood up after confirming that the latter was 100% dead.

The people present looked at each other.

Of the various forces that came to participate in the Five Kage Summit this time, plus the samurai groups from the Land of Iron, only Konoha, Kumogakure, and Iwagakure remain here.

This battle was extremely tragic, with the samurai wiped out, Kisame killed, and Nagato crippled and seriously injured in both legs.

Two dogs fight, play off.

With the fall and severe injury of the demigods, the three great ninja villages emerged as the final victors.

"Let's go, it's time to go back. There are still many things waiting for us to do."

Jiraiya gave Minato and Hiruzen Sarutobi an instruction, then gave Onoki and A a look before quickly leaving Sanrou Mountain and returning to Konoha.

After watching Jiraiya and the others leave, Onoki turned to the Raikage A and extended an invitation to cooperate:

"Fourth Raikage, how about we join forces to go to Amegakure and rescue our respective Jinchūriki?"

"no problem."

Raikage A readily nodded. Although Nagato was seriously injured, he was not so easy to deal with. It would still be difficult for either Iwagakure or Kumogakure to contend with him.

Only by joining forces can they force Nagato to return the Jinchūriki.

Whoosh whoosh.

The Hidden Stone Village and the Hidden Cloud Village also left this place, leaving behind only the ruins of the Three Wolves Mountain and the corpses of samurai scattered all over the ground.

Night fell.

"Awoo!"

Amidst the ruins, a pack of wolves howled. Smelling blood, they arrived and discovered a strange fish covered in sharp spines. They swarmed it, intending to make it their dinner.

But they chose the wrong prey.

After a fierce battle, only a few remained.

Sekiro, covered in wounds and with his tail between his legs, whimpered as he fled in panic. As for his companions, they became mutilated, cold corpses, forever left in the snowfield.

This strange fish is Samehada.

It had been hiding near Mount Sanrou, silently waiting for Kisame, but he didn't appear until night fell. Then, Samehada came here and discovered this snow-covered ground covered in blood, as well as the remnants of Kisame's chakra on it.

"Waaaaah..."

Samehada lay on the ground, wailing like a child. After consuming the monster's cells and completing its evolution, it had acquired a mind no less capable than a human's, as well as a wealth of emotions just like a human's.

Therefore, it will also feel pain and sadness when it loses its owner.

Yes, Master.

Kisame was the second user of Samehada. His delicious chakra and powerful strength conquered the strange fish, making it gradually become devoted to this man and recognize him as its master for life.

But now, Kisame is dead.

half an hour.

Samehada stopped sobbing. It glanced reluctantly at the skeletons on the ground, then went to the riverbank at the foot of Three Wolves Mountain and jumped into the river with a splash. Like a shark, it headed straight for the river's mouth downstream.

three days later.

The Five Kage Summit, held again after more than forty years, was already attracting worldwide attention. Every ninja and villager from the five great ninja villages eagerly awaited news from the front.

Therefore, everything that happened at Mount Sanlang spread like wildfire throughout the ninja world in just two or three days.

Nagato is seriously injured, and Kisame is dead!

This bombshell news was like a bomb dropped into water, instantly creating a huge wave throughout the entire ninja world, which took a long time to calm down.

Many people sensed something: the ninja world was about to undergo a major change.

The Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire.

The great lords of the four great nations of Fire, Wind, Earth, and Thunder were gathered in a mansion for a grand celebration party, indulging in delicious food, fine wine, and beautiful women, and reveling in unbridled pleasure.

Their greatest threat, Kisame Hoshigaki, finally died.

From now on, surely no one will dare to challenge the authority of the Daimyo's court, let alone commit insubordination or murder of the Daimyo. Otherwise, Kisame Hoshigaki will serve as a cautionary tale.

Even so-called demigods of the ninja world, who oppose the daimyo, cannot escape death.

Overjoyed, the daimyo added another 100 million ryo to the original 300 million bounty on Kisame, which was then divided equally among the four major ninja villages: Konoha, Amegakure, Iwagakure, and Kumogakure, as a gesture of goodwill from the daimyo's government.

Next, the daimyo ordered their respective ninja villages to immediately assemble troops and form a ninja alliance army of over ten thousand men. They would soon march into the Land of Water to wipe out Kisame's followers and remaining forces, and liberate the Land of Water once again.

In reality, this was the Fourth Shinobi World War.

Konoha Village.

If we were to name the happiest group in the entire ninja world these past few days, it would undoubtedly be the ninjas and villagers of Konoha.

When they heard the news of Kisame Hoshigaki's death, they cheered and rushed into the streets to celebrate, creating a scene of throngs of people for several days.

The humiliation Kisame inflicted on Konoha was so immense that every Konoha villager could not hold their heads high. Because if they looked up, they would see Kisame's statue on the Hokage Rock, a constant reminder that Konoha was the defeated party.

Today, we have finally ushered in a moment of triumph.
