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

boom!

A beam of red light shot out from Wuwei's palm and entered Kisame's body, instantly enveloping the latter's massive body in a red glow.

Under this attack.

Kisame staggered backward, thick chains of flame appearing on his body, attempting to completely seal away all his power.

Did you make it?

Wuwei's face lit up with joy. But Kisame's next words chilled him to the bone.

"Forget it, I'm not going to pretend anymore."

Kisame said in a muffled voice, enduring the scorching heat of the Great Fire Prison, and completed the hand seal.

next second.

Wow.

A huge column of water rose from beneath Kisame's feet, engulfing him completely.

Chi Chi Chi.

Wuwei was horrified as he watched as the fiery chains on Kisame's body gradually extinguished and dimmed under the wash of the water.

It eventually disappeared without a trace.

It turns out that the Fire Release: Heavenly Prison Seal never worked on him.

Kisame looked down at Wuwei, slowly opened his mouth, and a ball of blue chakra formed in his mouth.

It emitted incredibly terrifying energy fluctuations.

Flounder - Liberation.

This ability is perfectly paired with Flounder Strike, allowing you to unleash all the energy the latter has accumulated at once.

The energy Kisame accumulated after defeating a thousand people was condensed into a ball of light, whose power was comparable to a real Tailed Beast Ball.

Swish!

He opened his mouth and spat out a ball of light, but it didn't go towards Wuwei; instead, it flew past the latter, over the plaza's walls, and finally...

It fell into the sea below the cliff.

Wuwei stiffly turned his head to look.

In the sea, as the sphere of light exploded, the giant sharp rocks that had risen above the sea surface instantly turned into dust, and hundreds of thousands of tons of seawater were swept into the air before crashing back down to the surface, forming towering waves.

The frenzied impact against the cliffs outside Hozuki Castle caused the prison to teeter on the brink of collapse.

This is... such a magnificent power.

Wuwei was dumbfounded and knelt down on the ground, his face ashen.

Ye Cang, a resident of the women's prison, also witnessed this shocking scene and remained speechless for a long time.

She couldn't help but recall the first time she met Kisame. He was very weak then, and could only escape by jumping off a cliff in the face of her.

But in less than a year, he had grown to such a terrifying level. The destructive power of that ninjutsu was almost on par with Shukaku's Tailed Beast Ball from Sunagakure.

What is Kisame Hoshigaki's purpose in coming to this prison? Is it simply to kill?

Ye Cang frowned, lost in thought.

on the square.

The golden rays of the setting sun shone on Kisame, mixing with his blood to create an exceptionally alluring color.

It was as if it were a demon god who had walked out of hell.

After releasing the energy accumulated by "Strong Strike", Kisame's size gradually shrank, returning to its original form.

In this process, he gradually moved towards the direction of non-action.

Wuwei slowly closed his eyes, awaiting death.

As a result, nothing happened after waiting for a long time.

Kisame walked straight past Wuwei, went a short distance ahead, and then bent down to pick something up from the ground.

It was a snowflake amulet stained with blood.

"We finally got it back."

Kisame held the amulet in his hand, a smile spreading across his face. At that moment, he seemed to see a snow woman with long white hair and sky-blue eyes smiling at him.

It was... all for this?!

Wuwei was dumbfounded.

If he had known, he shouldn't have taken Kisame's amulet and carelessly tossed it away. Who could have imagined things would turn out this way?

Thinking of this, Wuwei was filled with regret, his heart filled with remorse.

After Kisame retrieved the amulet, he turned around and walked up to Wuwei.

"What do you want, cough cough..."

Wuwei looked up at Kisame, but before he could finish speaking, his injuries flared up, and he coughed violently.

Kisame squinted, seemingly lost in thought.

After a moment of silence.

"Ugh."

He suddenly sighed and said earnestly to the lord of Hozuki Castle before him, "Lord Muwei, all I want is to be a model prisoner and properly repent for my sins here. Why do you have to force me?"

Wuwei: "..."

Under his astonished gaze, Kisame turned around, stepped over the prisoners lying on the ground, and swaggered back to his cell.

This is Kisame's plan.

He fought this fight today to establish his supreme authority and become the apex predator in this prison's food chain.

From now on, whether it's prisoners, prison guards, or high-ranking members of the Grass Ninja, no one will dare to cause him any trouble.

However, he did not reveal his true purpose, which was to obtain the Box of Elysium.

In this way, Kisame could train and improve his skills in Hozuki Castle in peace as a prisoner until he became a tailless tailed beast and was ready to devour the Box of Elysium.

Before that, no matter what the warden, Muwei, thought or did, Kisame Hoshigaki was determined to be a prisoner and stay there.

three days later.

The medical cells in Hozuki Castle were overcrowded, with more than half of the wounded being prison guards.

They were all brought in by Kisame.

Meanwhile, the prison was filled with cries of agony. In the brawl three days prior, almost no prisoner could escape Kisame's iron fists; they were all beaten to a pulp.

Kisame Hoshigaki, the instigator, acted as if nothing had happened, as if it had nothing to do with him.

He arrived at the deserted prison square and began exercising, sweating profusely.

The city lord's office.

Wuwei stared at Kisame in the square through the window with a gloomy expression. After a long while, he turned his gaze back to the group of high-ranking members of the Grass Ninja Village inside the room.

These people also took the blows from Kisame's iron fists, and they were all bruised and battered, looking disheveled.

However, the worst off was Wuwei; the half of his face that Kisame had slapped was still swollen. He had also lost several teeth, causing him to slur his words.

"Wuwei, what should we do now?" one person asked through gritted teeth.

They desperately wanted to avenge Kisame, but after witnessing his overwhelming power, their anger and hatred were ultimately replaced by helplessness.

"Keep the news under wraps! This matter cannot be allowed to spread, otherwise Hozuki Castle Prison, and even the entire Kusagakure village, will be disgraced in the ninja world."

After a moment of silence, Wuwei spoke.

For decades, Hozuki Castle Prison has become a shining example of Kusagakure's reputation. No matter what kind of prisoner they are, they all behave themselves and reform themselves once they arrive here.

If this incident were to be exposed, and the major powers learned that Hozuki Castle prison had been turned upside down by a single prisoner, they would likely immediately lose trust in Kusagakure and would never send prisoners there again.

By then, how will Wuwei and the others use the prisoners' chakra to open the Box of Bliss?

Everyone nodded in agreement with Wuwei's decision, and there were no objections.

"What about Kisame Hoshigaki? What do you plan to do with him?" another high-ranking member of the Grass Ninja asked.

"First, keep him calm and make sure he doesn't know about the existence of the Box of Bliss. Then, think of a way to get him out of this prison, as far away from Ghost Lantern City as possible."

Wuwei said in a deep voice, and picked up the list of offerings on his desk, crossing out Kisame's name.

He no longer wanted to provoke this jinx; he just wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible.

105. The Emperor of Prisons

On the prison square.

"Huff, huff..."

Kisame, panting heavily, stood up after completing his last training session of the day.

As the gentle evening breeze blew, he wiped the sweat from his face with a towel and watched the sunset slowly sink into the sea, realizing that he had unknowingly grown to like the prison.

The isolated island in the inland sea where Hozuki Castle is located is far from the conflicts of the ninja world, like a paradise, making it the most suitable place for secluded cultivation.

Kisame had heard that many great people had been to prison, and that they had all attained enlightenment while in prison, and then accomplished great things after they got out.

Perhaps, he can also gain some insight from this Ghost Lantern City prison.

After leaving the plaza, Kisame first took a shower, then ate dinner at the cafeteria, and finally headed towards his cell.

He was free to come and go in prison as if he were in his own home.

Throughout the entire process, not a single prison guard dared to cause Kisame any trouble. On the contrary, whenever they saw him, they would all keep their distance with expressions of fear.

Kisame walked through the prison corridor.

The prisoners lying on their beds, groaning in pain, immediately fell silent upon seeing him, not daring to utter a sound.
