From the night of genocide, marching towards the strongest.

Konoha's Ultimate Taijutsu Technique - Dragon God!

Boom!

In an instant, Naruto transformed into a deep red, indestructible dragon-shaped hurricane, unleashing a deafening roar, and swept towards Kisame Hoshigaki at supersonic speed!

This Jinchūriki brat!

Kisame Hoshigaki's eyes widened, and he instinctively raised his Samehada sword to block in front of his chest.

boom!

A tremendous roar resounded, and Samehada let out a mournful cry, clearly indicating that Samehada had indeed absorbed some of Naruto's Konoha Dragon God's chakra.

However, the enormous impact force generated by the super-powerful physical technique sprint could not be absorbed!

Just like the high-pressure air blast created by Might Guy's Daytime Tiger, Kisame, in his peak form fused with Samehada, was unable to absorb it and was instead severely injured.

The immense force caused Kisame's hand to go numb, and the Samehada sword flew out of his grasp. His body, which had been leaping into the air, was forcefully knocked down by Naruto.

Pfft!

The moment he landed, before Kisame Hoshigaki could react, the high-pressure water jet pierced through a gap in the torrential rain, seemingly crossing space, and precisely struck his heart.

With a crisp bang, the arrow's terrifying power was unleashed only after it pierced Kisame's chest.

A huge, gaping hole was blasted through Kisame's chest, and most of his chest was completely wiped out by the stab.

Behind him, the effects of the water line were far from over, amidst the burst of blood that erupted from the stab.

The trees and rocks within the extended track turned into broken wood and branches and crashed to the ground, with blood and debris scattered everywhere!

"I can't believe we lost to two brats from Konoha..."

Kisame Hoshigaki looked down at his chest in disbelief and murmured to himself.

As soon as he finished speaking, he collapsed weakly onto the water, his blood staining the surface.

"I remember your name is Haruno Sakura, right?"

Looking at the pink-haired girl who walked up to him, seemingly to confirm his life or death, Kisame Hoshigaki grinned and asked.

"What a talented ninja! To have mastered such powerful Water Release techniques at such a young age... Heh... It seems Konoha will produce a ninja who surpasses the Second Hokage in the future..."

"I am not a ninja known for my talent."

Faced with the enemy's praise, the girl shook her head slightly. At this moment, her face was extremely pale and her body was trembling slightly.

This is a symptom of massive chakra depletion and near exhaustion.

His light green eyes flickered slightly, and he said calmly, "I am just an ordinary ninja who can see further by standing on the shoulders of my predecessors."

The most important thing for a ninja is—to pass on their legacy!

This was something her master, Maruboshi Kosuke, had told her, and she had always kept it in mind.

She never thought she was particularly talented; the reason she is now far more capable than her peers is because of this.

That's because she inherited the legacy of the three Hokage!

"Inheritance..."

Kisame Hoshigaki looked at the girl with a hint of reminiscence in his eyes.

"I'll remember you, Sakura Haruno!"

"Hey?"

Naruto, who had rushed over, was taken aback. Pointing to himself, he asked, "And me? My name is Uzumaki..."

However, Kisame Hoshigaki didn't seem to care about him. As soon as he finished speaking, a shark suddenly emerged from the water, turned his form around, and tore it apart.

Although it is not his true form, Kisame Hoshigaki has always maintained that he leaves no information behind.

"That bastard!"

Naruto shouted angrily.

Chapter 115 The Mysterious Giant Tree.

Inside the dark cave.

Summoned by the Illusionary Body Technique, the mental projections of the Akatsuki members reappeared on the fingers of the Gedo Mazo.

"Why did they all fail? I want to hear the details of this mission."

Pain looked around and finally focused his gaze on Kakuzu, whose mental projection was somewhat unstable. He said in a deep voice, "Kakuzu, you go first."

"I was careless..."

After a long silence, Kakuzu, whose face was extremely pale, replied, "Kakashi Hatake suddenly awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan. Under his eye technique, I suffered some damage, which led to my eventual defeat at the hands of Sasuke Uchiha."

"Kaleidoscope Sharingan..."

Pain murmured a sentence, nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Then what about Sasuke Uchiha? Did he also awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

Kakuzu's face grew even uglier. After a long pause, he muttered, "I don't know! If I ever encounter him again, I will kill him with my own hands."

Seeing this, Pain understood a bit and turned his gaze to Itachi Uchiha, who had remained silent.

"No." Itachi Uchiha said, his eyes slightly narrowed, his tone completely calm.

"Although he has become much stronger, he still does not have the capacity to open the Mangekyou Sharingan."

After saying this, Itachi Uchiha fell silent and did not utter another word.

"Let me add something."

Suddenly, Zetsu stepped forward with a grin and said, "Uchiha Sasuke did not show any signs of activating the Mangekyou Sharingan, but his strength was indeed very strong. He must have used a powerful and extremely hot fire jutsu to kill Hidan before. Although he always talks about being immortal, he will still die when he is turned to ashes, hehe."

"Kakuzu probably did just as he said, he was careless, hehe."

The repeated use of the particles "probably" and "should" reveals his sinister and ambiguous nature.

"Jue, do you have a death wish?"

Kakuzu understood the hidden meaning in Zetsu's words, and his face turned extremely gloomy.

"All right."

Pain gestured to stop the two from continuing their confrontation, then turned his gaze to Kisame Hoshigaki.

Sasuke Uchiha was strong, and he knew a little about it from the Green Aoi incident two months ago.

He just hadn't expected that Uchiha Sasuke was so strong that he could kill and defeat two members of the organization.

Therefore, it's only natural that Itachi Uchiha's Elephant Turn technique lost to Sasuke Uchiha.

So, what about Kisame Hoshigaki?

Seeing Pain's gaze fall upon him, Kisame Hoshigaki shrugged: "I was careless."

Was it another careless mistake?

Pain was somewhat dissatisfied; the Akatsuki were now doing dangerous, high-risk jobs.

Did one or two people think they were here to play house or a ninja game?

Meeting adjourned!

Pain slowly glanced at the group, then waved his hand and announced.

As soon as Pain emerged from the Illusionary Body Technique, a distorted vortex appeared on the sofa in front of him, and Obito Uchiha stepped out from within the spatial vortex.

"Mr. Ban, is there something you need?"

Pain asked coldly.

Obito Uchiha leaned back slightly, making himself more comfortable lying on the sofa.

“Although Sasuke Uchiha killed Hidan, you also know that if Itachi Uchiha were still alive, he would not have allowed anyone else to kill his brother.”

“Uchiha Itachi…” Pain’s gaze turned slightly cold as he said calmly, “He is still a member of our organization. If Uchiha Sasuke continues to hinder our operations next time, and the other members are unable to kill him, then I will personally take action.”

"Before the power of God, everything is nothing."

Pain looked calmly at the Sharingan beneath Obito Uchiha's mask and said...

Obito chuckled lightly, seemingly oblivious to the implied meaning in his words, and changed the subject.

"What about your subordinates? They might expose the connection between Amegakure and the organization."

"Don't worry, they haven't been Amegakure's people for a month. They're just a bunch of wandering ninjas."

Payne gazed into the distance and said calmly, "As for now, they're probably all dead by now."

Obito wasn't too surprised and smiled, "What a cold-blooded person."

...........

That night, in Takigakure Village.

The night was gloomy, and darkness enveloped the silent night sky. Only a crescent moon hung alone high in the sky, occasionally disappearing into the clouds, revealing only a few specks of light.

A night wind blew by, sharp and cold!

The moonlight, as soft as frost and water, gently caressed Sasuke's face, illuminating his handsome yet serene features.

I slightly raised my head to look at the sky, not knowing whether it was due to geographical environment, psychological factors, or some other strange reason.

Although there was only a waning moon in the sky, Sasuke suddenly felt that the moon tonight was exceptionally bright and beautiful.

It's even more eerie!

During the day, when he rushed to Takigakure to support Sakura and Naruto, he was surprised to find that the two had already finished their battle.

This made Sasuke look at his two companions with new respect.

However, after several major battles, Naruto, that rich dog, was still in good spirits and full of energy.

Sakura, on the other hand, had exhausted too much chakra. When she saw him appear, she finally relaxed and fainted as her tense heart relaxed.

Because Naruto and Fu volunteered to take care of the three unconscious people.

Sasuke, on the other hand, assisted the village chief, Shibuki, in detaining the Rain Ninja prisoners and handling the aftermath of the incident.

This took up most of the day. Although the remaining matters were still not finished, they were matters related to Mu.
