Chapter 563 Villagers: Those Who Know When to Adversity
"Um?"
"What happened?"
After Tobirama Senju killed Shizuma Hoshigaki with a Flying Thunder God Slash, he immediately used another Flying Thunder God Slash to return to his starting position.
The villagers present had no time to react to what was happening, and before they could even see a shadow of a person, they found Shi Chengzhen lying on the ground.
Of course, the main reason is that Shi Chengzhen is still a child and is too short.
Tobirama Senju couldn't even perform the Flying Thunder God Slash by crouching down; he had to slide over.
So those present didn't have time to notice at first.
I felt a gust of wind blow past below, and when I looked down, I saw Shi Chengzhen lying on the ground, blood gushing from her neck.
"What happened?"
Kisame, who was monitoring the villagers' actions, was also stunned.
Because he didn't realize what had happened either.
The villagers were too weak, and Kisame was somewhat distracted, which was part of the reason.
Another reason is that Tobirama Senju was sliding in and was obscured by the crowd.
boom--
After a brief delay, the room where Hoshigaki Shizune was located was blown into the sky by the Mutual Explosion Talisman.
It was crackling and popping, like tens of thousands of firecrackers being set off for the New Year.
The villagers didn't have time to care who died; hiding and escaping were the priorities.
Those who ran fast were only hit a few times by fragments of the wall from the explosion, while those who ran slowly were directly exposed to the heat wave of the explosion, and some were even burned directly, leaving them no choice but to jump straight into the water.
Kisame looked even more confused now.
If he remembered correctly, the person in that room was Hoshigaki Shizune. After the villagers ran away, the dead body left on the ground was blown up, and it seemed to be Hoshigaki Shizune's son, Hoshigaki Shizuma.
Aren't these two the mission targets?
and so……
He did nothing, yet the task was mostly completed?
Now that the father and son who were the culprits mentioned in the mission were gone, Kisame stopped hiding and went straight over.
Facing the debris from the explosion, Kisame wielded Samehada to easily defend himself, and finally, when the explosion ended, he walked to the dilapidated house.
Shizuma, who was about to be blown into a chicken carcass, fell from the sky. Kisame didn't even look up, but swung Samehada backhand and sent the chicken carcass flying.
A villager who had just looked up was knocked back down.
Kisame stared at the hilt of the Thunder God Sword on the ground, lost in thought.
If someone came and killed the father and son, why didn't they take this thing away?
"Who are you? Why did you kill Lord Hoshigaki and his son?"
The villagers slowly approached Kisame, and one of them mustered up his courage and asked a question.
"My name is Kisame Hoshigaki, and I did not kill them."
Kisame, being an honest man, doesn't bother to hide anything unless absolutely necessary; he answers whatever people ask.
"Kisame Hoshigaki? That name sounds familiar..."
"I remember that Lord Shenling mentioned to us that Lord Kisame is the strongest member of the Hoshigaki clan and the owner of Samehada."
"Yes, it is said that the baby girl from the Hoshigaki clan that Lord Shenling picked up was raised by him as Kisame, and was named Nanami, meaning to conquer the ocean."
This is Lord Chenling's ambition!
"That Nanami kid has been sent to be a spy for the Mizukage in Kirigakure, right?"
"Yes, Nanami has now gained the Mizukage's trust, second only to Chojuro and Ao. In fact, as a girl, she is even closer to the Mizukage."
"What a pity, the Shenling father and son are dead, otherwise we could have coordinated an attack from within and without sooner or later..."
"Oh, by the way, the name of Lord Chenling's later son, Shi Chengzhen, is said to have been chosen to inherit Lord Kisame's will."
The villagers had certainly heard of Kisame, and they chatted amongst themselves, quickly forgetting the grief of their leader's recent death.
As a mob, what we fear most is having no one to take the lead.
This will cause them to lose the "sense of security" that humans need most.
Now that Kisame has appeared seamlessly, the villagers are immediately at ease.
"..."
Kisame didn't interrupt the villagers' noise; instead, he listened attentively.
This is all very crucial intelligence.
Upon hearing the information about Hoshigaki Nanami, Kisame immediately felt a sense of familiarity.
Good heavens, isn't this exactly the same as Itachi's past?
Was he really a double agent who ultimately sided with the village?
As for naming the girl Nanami, which means conquering the ocean, Kisame didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
The water shadows nowadays are all women.
In addition, Kirigakure is known for its abundance of male and female characters.
Therefore, there is no gender discrimination in Kirigakure.
Besides, the pronunciation of "七海" is similar to "南娜米", which is actually quite suitable for a girl's name.
It's what makes Kisame always think of the "Seven Warlords of the Sea" that the strategist Bai Mo mentioned.
Before he arrived, the strategist had complained that the group of people from Kirigakure who were connected to Hoshigaki Shizuma all looked like cameo actors from the One Piece movie set.
Finally, there's Shi Chengzhen.
Corpse = Ghost.
Cheng means to clear away the turbidity, and Zhen represents the truth.
That certainly aligns with Kisame's aspirations.
What Kisame finds strange is that he pursues authenticity, something that only the masked man... Obito Uchiha seems to know, right?
How did Gan Shi Chen Ling know about this, and even give her son a similar name?
Obito Uchiha probably didn't have the habit of keeping a diary, right?
Oh right, the villagers said "it is said".
It may not be true.
Could this be another coincidence brought about by divine will, as the strategist once said?
Kisame felt like he was about to grow a brain, so he decided not to think too much and sent a signal to summon Itachi as well.
Itachi Uchiha had been preparing for a long time on how to appease the villagers and guide them back to normalcy after the deaths of Hoshigaki and his son.
The Uchiha Itachi who once wiped out his own clan is now doing this simply to put his mind at ease and to let these villagers live, just as he would have let the Uchiha clan live back then.
"It was probably the Second Hokage who made the move. The Thunder God Sword is his sword, and he deliberately didn't take it, so he probably didn't want it anymore."
After persuading the villagers to return to the rule of the Mizukage and promising to assign them tasks, Itachi and Kisame began a private conversation in a house that the villagers had given up.
Based on the descriptions Kisame saw, Itachi guessed what might have happened.
After all, Itachi had spent some time with the Second Hokage during Urashiki's invasion of Otsutsuki and experienced the Flying Thunder God Technique firsthand.
"?"
Kisame slowly typed out a question mark.
As a ninja from Kirigakure and one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, Kisame found it hard to imagine that someone would deliberately abandon their own ninja sword.
"There's some dirt on it."
Itachi subtly hinted to Kisame.
"Dirty stuff? Even if shark skin fell into a cesspool, I wouldn't abandon it."
Kisame still couldn't understand.
When Samehada heard Kisame's heartfelt confession, it couldn't help but rub the hilt of its sword against him.
But poor, honest Kisame didn't know that Samehada was actually a pure green tea knife.
In the original work, he not only fell in love with Killer Bee in a heartbeat, but in the Boruto era, he even willingly degenerated and was played with by the useless Shizuma, and even fused with him.
