"Where's that guy?"
After Tsunade completed the sealing of the tailed beasts in Pakura and Yamato, she entered the operating room where Kisame was, only to see those who participated in the sealing asleep.
As for Kisame, he disappeared.
After checking the situation and confirming that there was nothing abnormal about them, Tsunade woke them up.
Half an hour later, Tsunade returned to the tree house, and there was no trace of Kisame here too.
"Did this guy disappear again without saying anything. He really does what ever he wants. But that's fine, him being out of my sight is a good thing."
Tsunade muttered and sat down on the sofa. Perhaps it was because it took too much energy to perform two major sealings in a row, she quickly fell asleep with her head tilted.
At the same time, Kisame has entered the space portal, crossed the sea and the Land of Fire, and landed in Kusagakure.
He used the transformation technique, changed his appearance slightly, dressed up as an ordinary tourist, and walked towards his destination, Kusagakure.
The first goal of his trip is Uzumaki Karin.
During the Second Ninja World War 20 years ago, with the destruction of the Land of Whirlpool, the Uzumaki clan was also destroyed. Since then, only a few remnants of this family have been left, scattered all over the Ninja world, basically living a life of hiding and wandering.
Nagato, for example, fled to the Land of Rain with his parents, but he still couldn't escape the war and watched his parents killed by Konoha ninjas. However, he was lucky. After being discovered by Jiraiya, he received the careful guidance of the latter and lived a relatively fulfilling and happy childhood in peace.
In contrast, Karin's fate is much more miserable than Nagato's.
As long as she can remember, she has been wandering around with her mother. Because of her red hair, she has been excluded and discriminated against everywhere. Later, the mother and daughter finally settled down in Kusagakure. They thought it was a new beginning, but they were unexpectedly used by Kusagakure ninjas on the spot as human flesh medical kits.
In order to protect her daughter, Karin's mother did not hesitate to sacrifice herself. She was bitten by the ninja of Kusagakure hundreds of times, and she was sucked to death, which was extremely miserable.
Although the death of her mother gave Karin an identity in Kusagakure, her fate has not changed in any way, she is just a tool used by the villagers to heal her wounds.
In the anime, Karin has participated in the Chunin exam as a member of Kusagakure, and that was the first time she met Sasuke, Naruto and others. Later, she met Orochimaru, who discovered her talent and became Orochimaru's experimental material.
It can be said that among the descendants of the Uzumaki family, Naruto Uzumaki, who seems to have suffered many setbacks and discrimination since childhood, is actually the best one. Karin is the really poor person.
Like Naruto and Nagato, Karin also has huge amount of chakra in her body, and the injured only need to bite her skin to recover their chakra and injuries. In addition, her perception ability is very good, with the Mind's eye of Kagura ,she can perceive all enemies within a radius of dozens of kilometers.
Therefore, in Kisame's view, Karin is a very suitable candidate to be a Jinchuriki. With her aptitude, she should be able to control the Eight-Tails.
He estimated that at this time, Karin and her mother had just arrived at Kusagakure. If they were lucky, he would be able to find them in time.
However, what surprised Kisame was that on his way to Kusagakure, he encountered several robbers blocking the road one after another, almost without stopping.
'Is this place so chaotic?'
Kisame quickly found the reason.
Because, he encountered a group of robbers, and this time their number was large, there were hundreds of people, and their courage was great. These people had just looted a caravan, killed many civilians, and were counting the spoils in the middle of the road.
Kisame's appearance then caught the attention of the other party.
The leader of this group of robbers was a tall, dark-skinned, one-eyed sturdy man. When his sinister gaze fell on Kisame, he quickly frowned. After countless battles, his intuition told him that the man in front of him was not easy to mess with, and he was a ruthless character.
"Who are you, report your name." So, the one-eyed man asked Kisame, and secretly directed his men with gestures to surround Kisame.
"If I guessed correctly, you are not ordinary robbers, but... the prisoners of Hozuki Castle, right?"
Kisame rubbed his chin with his hand and asked rhetorically.
The first time he saw these people, he felt that they are very familiar. Then he suddenly remembered that many of the faces were the guys he had bullied when he was serving his sentence in Hozuki Castle.
The two subordinates of the one-eyed man looked at each other and walked towards Kisame. While pulling out their weapons, they sneered and threatened Kisame:
"Since you know our identities, honestly hand over all the money you have. Maybe our boss can spare your life."
"That's right, our boss used to be the elite Jonin of Kumogakure and the King of Hozuki Castle."
'Oh?'
Hearing this, Kisame looked surprised, and then he frowned and continued to ask: "But I heard that the king of the Hozuki Castle is Hoshigaki Kisame? Except him, no one is qualified to have this name, right? "
"Humph."
The one-eyed man snorted coldly and said arrogantly, "Don't you know that Hoshigaki Kisame is dead, and his era has long ended. Now, I am the king of the Hozuki Castle."
"If that's the case, then why didn't you stay in the prison honestly? Why run out to kill and set fire?" Kisame asked again.
"You have too many questions."
The one-eyed dragon pointed at him with his finger, then suddenly shouted, "Do it!"
As soon as he said that, dozens of prisoners of Hozuki Castle rushed towards Kisame while shouting loudly, wanting to to kill him.
However, in the next second, Kisame just snapped his fingers, and a large number of trees rose from the ground, spiraling upwards, then pierced the bodies of the prisoners and lifted them high into the air.
"You, who are you?"
When the one-eyed man saw this, his pupils shrank sharply, and felt a chill on his spine. After he came back to his senses, he turned around and ran away without saying a word, he doesn't have the courage to fight Kisame.
'Swish.'
The one-eyed man just ran out but there was a sudden sound that rang behind him. He looked back in horror, and found that a bone sword flew out of Kisame's hand, that extended dozens of meters in an instant, and caught up with him at once.
"Ah!" The one-eyed man let out a scream as his legs were cut off by Kusanagi Sword, and he fell to the ground with a thud, unable to escape.
Kisame took a slight step, and crossed a distance of dozens of meters, and came to the one-eyed man.
"Why did you have to take action against me and force me to kill you? Isn't peace is the most precious thing?"
Kisame complained, then pressed the tip of the sword against the one-eyed man's throat, and said lightly, "Now, you should be able to answer my question, right?"
"I will talk, I will say everything."
The one-eyed man endured the pain and told Kisame about everything that happened in Hozuki Castle and Kusagakure.
It turn out that in the past two years, at the behest of the Land of Wind, Nagato has further expanded northward, provoked a war with the Land of Grass, and annexed Kusagakure without any suspense.
The warden of Hozuki Castle Mui, was also killed by Sasori of the red sand, a member of Akatsuki organization, and turned him into a puppet. With Mui's death, the Fire Prison jutsu imprinted on the prisoners of Hozuki Castle was lifted, freeing these people from their shackles and regaining their power.
Under Nagato's rule, these prisoners that were originally in the prison, dared not make any ruckus. With Nagato seriously injured in the fourth ninja war, the Daimyo of the Land of the wind being assassinated, there was a power vaccum.
For a time, the entire Land of Wind and Amegakure were leaderless. In the chaotic situation, Kusagakure took the lead in breaking away from Amegakure's control and fell into huge chaos.
And the prisoners in Hozuki Castle also seized this opportunity, killed the prison guards and escaped from the prison, wandering around in the Land of Grass, making the country even more miserable.
For the current Land of Grass, human life is cheap.
After listening to the one-eyed man's words, Kisame frowned slightly.
It seems that something is wrong. If Karin and her mother and daughter really came to Kusagakure, can they survive in such a harsh environment?
Thinking of this, Kisame didn't want to waste any more time, and planned to kill the one-eyed man with one sword, and then hurry to Kusagakure.
When the one-eyed man sensed the killing intent, he suddenly shouted:
"Sir, don't kill me! I have a girl named Ryuzetsu in my hand. She has mastered a kind of Kekkei Genkai called Dragon Life Rebirth, which can resurrect dead people. As long as you spare my life, I will tell you where she is!"
"Ryuzetsu?"
Hearing that, Kisame remembered that Muku, the son of Mui, the owner of Hozuki Castle, did have a childhood sweetheart, a white-haired girl with eyes that looks similar to Rinnegan.
In the anime, Ryuzetsu sacrificed her life to reincarnate Naruto, who was seriously injured and dying.
'Unexpectedly, there is an unexpected harvest here.'
Half an hour later, Kisame came to a cave with the one-eyed man who lost his legs. After killing the prison guard at the door, he entered the cave and found an iron cage as tall as one person.
A young girl with short white hair, wearing a headscarf had curled her body into a ball and was lying in the corner of the cage. Her hands and feet were in shackles, and her eyes were dim.
The one-eyed man saved her life, apparently intending to use her to continue to live when he was seriously injured. Unfortunately, the enemy he encountered was too powerful, giving him no chance to use this ace.
"Sir, please..." The one-eyed man was still begging, but halfway through his words, his neck was snapped by Kisame, and was thrown aside.
'Bang.'
Kisame smashed the iron cage open with one punch, walked to Ryuzetsu's side and squatted down and checked the latter's body. Due to the long-term imprisonment, her body is very weak, but fortunately she is not injured, and she can recover as long as she rests for a period of time.
"You, who are you..." Ryuzetsu looked up at Kisame and spoke with difficulty.
She didn't feel that the strange man in front of her was here to save her, and the other party was likely to use her as a tool just like the one-eyed man groupthis was her only value.
"Don't think about anything, just get a good night's sleep. You just need to know that from now on, you're safe."
Kisame did not answer her question, but as he spoke, he stretched out a hand to the latter. Immediately, a suction force came from his palm, and with a surprised face, Ryuzetsu was sucked into the Box of Ultimate Bliss.
Then, he stood up and disappeared from the spot in a flash.
Kisame walked into Kusagakure.
Looking around, there are collapsed houses on both sides of the street, and there are even many bodies on the road. Although there are ninjas cleaning the bodies, they are obviously not that interested in doing so.
"stop!"
After Kisame walked in, two ninjas stepped forward to question his identity, suspecting that he was a ninja or a spy of a hostile force. Kisame was too lazy to explain to them, so he slapped them away, and then used his perception ability to search for Karin and her mother.
'Found it.'
In the northwest corner of the village, he sensed two special chakras, which were very different from the chakras of ordinary ninjas. However, one of them is already very weak, like a candle in the wind, it seems to be extinguished at any time.
Kisame crossed the street and arrived at the destination. At a glance, he saw a long queue of people outside a house. The people in line were all ninjas, and almost everyone was injured, urging the people in front to hurry up with cursing.
Every once in a while, a ninja came out of the house with a contented smile on his face, and the wounds on his body disappeared.
Seeing this, Kisame knew that he had come to the right place, so he walked straight towards the crowd in line.
"Move aside."
As he spoke, he vigorously pushed the person in front away and squeezed into the room.
"What are you doing, you bastard?" Kisame's behavior soon aroused public anger, and was attacked by everyone at the scene.
"What do you mean? Of course I am cutting the queue, can't you even understand that?"
Kisame said confidently, and as soon as he finished speaking, he slapped the ninjas in front of him, sending them flying.
This time, everyone knew that he was not easy to mess with, so they quickly gave up their seat and let him walk directly into the house.
As soon as he entered the room, Kisame's pupils shrank. Even a bad guy like him was uncontrollably angry after seeing the scene in front of him.
On a tattered wooden bed in the room, a red-haired woman collapsed limply with her hair disheveled. Most of the clothes on her body were torn apart, but these men did not intend to violate her, but left rows of teeth marks on all the places on her body where they could put their mouths down.
At this moment, two ninjas were like zombies, lying on the woman's body, biting her arm fiercely, as if they were greedily absorbing some kind of energy.
The woman endured the severe pain that life was worse than death, and did not say a word. Instead, she looked at a little red-haired girl in the corner of the bed with gentle eyes.
They are the mother and daughter that Kisame is looking for.
