Seeing this, the other clansmen looked at each other in bewilderment, and finally looked at Hyuga Hiashi behind them.
Hiashi Hyuga thought to himself, "If you two hadn't barged into the clan's territory, why would the clan members have attacked you?"
All of Hiashi Hyuga's words boiled down to one sentence: "Okay, I promise you."
......
The journey went smoothly, and Shirahoshi acquired a disciple of the Hyuga clan, thus obtaining material for the Tenseigan. However, the prerequisite was that he needed to obtain another supreme treasure in order to cultivate it.
Five days have passed.
The united war of the ninja world has quietly begun. The Kara organization seems to be preparing to fight to the death, directly occupying the territory of the Land of Frost, killing all the people of the Land of Frost, and deciding to dominate the ninja world.
Compared to the Fourth Shinobi World War in the original story, where the daimyo of the Land of Frost could retreat, the daimyo here was directly killed by Isshiki Otsutsuki. He was a god, and although he understood some human nature after a thousand years, he also knew that his purpose in this war was to obtain the Ten-Tails and leave Earth.
"The war has begun."
"Whether it's the Nine-Tails or the Eight-Tails, we must take them all down this time. If Shirahoshi appears, I'll deal with him." In five days, Otsutsuki Isshiki had roughly figured out Shirahoshi's situation.
Shirahoshi, though from a past world, is a ninja god from a parallel world, and her power is undeniable, far exceeding ordinary people's imagination.
But there is one thing that Shirahoshi cannot overcome.
Different space.
As long as Bai Xing is left in some alternate dimension, he can wantonly ravage the rest of the people.
"It's my lord!"
Before him, the numerous clones bowed and spoke. Kabuto smiled slightly, thinking to himself that his grand plan could finally be completed. As long as he obtained the flesh and blood of Shirahoshi or the person before him, he could become a god this world could not ignore!
......
"The ninjas at the front lines have received relevant intelligence. The Land of Frost has been destroyed, and the enemy army will begin its attack from there. We are dividing our forces into five routes to advance towards the Land of Frost..." The Fourth Raikage's secretary, Mabui, was reporting to the Five Kage.
"Damn it! Kara! Who exactly is Kara?! How dare they kill Yukito from our village! They must pay the price!" The Fourth Raikage was as furious as ever, smashing a large dent into the sturdy wooden table.
Onoki muttered to himself that the Fourth Raikage was a reckless fool, then probed Tsunade: "This time, I heard that Konoha has found the God of Shinobi from the past world to help us. I suppose this time, our war against the Kara organization should be a sure thing."
Tsunade sat to one side, elbows resting on the table, and said with a slight clasp: "Shirahoshi said he will make his move when the strongest enemy appears. The rest, we'll have to handle ourselves."
Upon hearing this, Mei Terumi smiled and said, "The strongest person. That sounds very interesting. I wonder if the Fifth Hokage could tell me who it is?"
Even the usually quiet Fifth Kazekage, Gaara, couldn't help but look at Tsunade, his eyes asking a question.
Seeing this, Tsunade nodded and said, "Originally, I was planning to tell you this. Actually... there was once a goddess in our world called the progenitor of chakra, named the Goddess of the Rabbit. You should all have this name mentioned in your village's ancient records, right?"
The four Kage remained silent for a moment. Gaara, unaware of the information, looked at his brother and sister, Temari and Kankuro, who had never read such a book before and shook their heads. Mei Terumi looked at Ao and Chojuro, who also had never read such an ancient text. Both villages had suffered sudden and violent deaths of their Kage, resulting in abrupt and significant weakening of their strength; they had no time to read ancient texts...
However, the situation was different for the villages of the Third Tsuchikage and the Fourth Raikage. The Fourth Raikage felt that he had heard the name somewhere before. He glanced at the man in hemp clothing, who nodded, and he realized that he had not misremembered.
The Third Tsuchikage retorted directly, "So what if you know that name? Are you suggesting our enemy this time is the goddess who is the progenitor of chakra? That's ridiculous. Everyone knows such a figure only exists in legends..."
Seeing Tsunade's serious expression, Onoki also dropped his probing tone and asked again in an incredulous tone, "Hokage, don't joke with this old man. This is no joke."
Tsunade sighed: "If I were joking, would I need to tell you this? Right now, the enemy is aliens from another universe, called the Otsutsuki clan."
"Of course. Our opponent isn't Kaguya Otsutsuki, the Goddess of the Rabbit..."
Before the crowd could even breathe a sigh of relief, Tsunade continued, "He is Kaguya Otsutsuki's companion, the Goddess of the Rabbit, another member of the Otsutsuki clan, named Isshiki Otsutsuki."
"So, we're going to face a god-level figure? Who exactly is this person?!" Gaara, the Fifth Kazekage, asked urgently.
Tsunade sighed again and said, "The other side is a clan that gives us ninjas chakra, and their history is a bit far back. In short, all the chakra that all of us ninjas have worked so hard to cultivate will become food for them."
"Food?" The Fifth Mizukage, Mei Terumi, couldn't help but stand up, her breasts trembling, and asked Tsunade with an incredulous look, "You mean, the other side will eat us?"
"Pretty much, but not too different. We'll explain the specifics after the war is over." Suddenly, Tsunade paused. "Now, we should consider how to win this war. The enemy's forces are not just ordinary clones, but also the power of Edo Tensei, and even a crudely made army of clones."
......
The pre-war meeting proceeded in an orderly manner.
This war also involves calling back Naruto Uzumaki and Killer Bee, who were training on the giant island turtle.
On the island turtle.
The missing Kisame has finally reappeared.
Might Guy looked at the other person and asked incredulously, "Sugarcane Demon Weasel! You've finally shown up!"
Kisame Hoshigaki's shark-like face twitched slightly. He covered his face, thinking to himself that this rare beast didn't remember his name at all. However, he still had a mission to complete: "You really are that rare beast who can't remember names."
Yamashiro Aoba spoke up, "It's Kisame Hoshigaki, an S-rank rogue ninja from Kirigakure. Your predecessor should have been in the Akatsuki organization, right? Can you tell us what the Akatsuki organization is all about? And you, do you not look like a clone?"
Kisame Hoshigaki gave a cold laugh: "Do you think I would tell you this kind of information?"
"In that case, let me extract information from you."
Just then, a sound suddenly came from above, reaching Kisame's ears, causing him to look up, and then his eyes widened in shock:
"It's you! The God of Shinobi from a parallel world, Shirahoshi?!"
Shirahoshi stood atop a stone pillar by the waterfall, yawning. Karura, standing beside him, stared expressionlessly at Kisame: "Master, should I do something?"
Shirahoshi waved her hand: "No need. Just let Kai and Aoba do it, they can handle it. But... running away is not allowed."
Seeing Kisame's subtle movements, Shirahoshi had a sudden thought, and a tentacle-like sticky substance formed on the surface of the waterfall.
It was a slime that had been hidden all along, bound by water-attribute tentacles.
Shirahoshi leaned against a stone pillar, forming a hand seal with one hand: "Water Release: Thirty-Six Strikes Technique!"
Kisame, who was being lifted high, still tried to resist, but a water spirit emerged from the water in front of his feet, leaped upwards, and began the Hyuga Thirty-Six Punches.
The water elemental attacked fiercely, striking all the pressure points on Kisame's body, rendering him unable to use chakra.
To prevent the opponent from biting their tongue and committing suicide, the Water Man also dislocated Kisame's jaw.
"Alright. Let's interrogate you. If you can't get anything out of me now, I'll have to underestimate you, Aoba from the Yamashiro clan~"
Having witnessed the entire process, Yamashiro Aoba wiped the sweat from his brow, nodded towards Shirahoshi, stepped forward, and began interrogating Kisame's mind.
At this moment, even if Kisame wanted to resist the mental attack or commit suicide, he was powerless to do so.
"Mr. Itachi..."
Seeing Shirahoshi's strength, Might Guy nodded slightly: "Too strong, Shirahoshi-senpai. Your strength may have surpassed that of the Hokage. Just a trap was enough to make this S-rank Uchiha Misaki surrender without a fight."
"..." Bai Xing remained silent for a while, then said, "It's alright. I'm just very curious about what Yi Shi did, and what he promised someone to get information about that person."
......
After a long while, Yamashiro Aoba slowly opened his eyes. He had obtained Kisame's information and began to explain: "The Akatsuki organization, apart from him and Uchiha Itachi who escaped, has had all the others killed by the Kara organization and turned into clones."
Meanwhile, after Itachi Uchiha's death, Kisame, under Kabuto Yakushi's guidance, confessed everything and later joined Kabuto's ranks to attack the Nine-Tails and Eight-Tails.
Furthermore, the Kara organization's cloning technology is extremely advanced, having completely replicated all of the original's clones except for himself and Itachi.
Moreover, even the cells of some powerful beings possess shell tissue, though it wasn't cultured at the time, but who knows now.
"So, you'll have to deal with not only clones but also Edo Tensei bodies, huh? That's great!" Shirahoshi said with a smile. "Then you'd better do your best. By the way, do you know how the Kara organization killed the predecessor members of the Akatsuki?"
Yamashiro Aoba nodded and said, "It was a person who shrunk down and then suddenly enlarged to carry out the attack. That's probably how the other members of Akatsuki died. At that time, Itachi Uchiha's clone was killed by the other party, and that's when he realized this. He and Kisame escaped the subsequent assassination attempts and broke away from the organization."
Shirahoshi nodded: "I see. As expected of Itachi Uchiha, he was able to notice that."
“I think I understand. In other words, the other side used this ability to carry out assassinations of their organization members. In the end, only the two of you escaped.”
Bai Xing paused for a moment:
"But what I find strange is why you would help the Shell organization, who are trying to kill you."
Kisame Hoshigaki, having recovered from the genjutsu, had slightly dimmed eyes. Hearing Shirahoshi's question, he finally looked up and said, "Do ninjas need so many reasons to carry out missions?"
Bai Xing paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "We really don't need to. But you're getting in our way right now, so... you have two choices."
"I choose to die."
"it is good."
Shirahoshi rarely used a chakra scalpel, and with incredible speed, she severed Kisame's head: "I grant your wish."
Chapter 182 Psychic Technique
To be fair, Shirahoshi doesn't dislike Kisame, a ninja who, despite his ugly appearance, possesses unwavering loyalty.
However, if your stance is wrong, there are some things that cannot be reversed.
"Galuro, let's go."
"Yes, my lord."
Bai Xing's actions and departure were like those of a passerby who intervened to help those in need, completing his mission and leaving in a hurry without leaving much of a trace.
Might Guy silently looked at Shirahoshi, then at Kisame's severed corpse on the ground, and said, "Kisame Hoshigaki, this man was truly a qualified ninja."
Throughout his long ninja career, Might Guy was one of the few ninjas who were fearless and unafraid of death.
"Kai, with that, our mission is complete. Naruto and Killer Bee from Kumogakure have both come out."
Yamashiro Aoba pushed up her sunglasses and looked up at the two people emerging from the real waterfall.
"Everyone! I, Naruto Uzumaki, have been resurrected!" Naruto Uzumaki said, waving his hand.
Killer Bee scoffed, "Idiot, is this the time to say hello? Go back and practice your Golden Man Mode, and figure it out as soon as possible, you idiot!"
His eyes reflected the headless corpse on the riverbank, and he sighed, "The man is gone?"
Taiga, the Cloud Village ninja who grew up with Killer Bee, suddenly appeared and explained to Killer Bee, "Let's go. That person is very strong. In this war, we have a great chance of winning."
"Hey! That guy with the shark face... he actually..." Naruto realized that Kisame was dead, and his eyes held an indescribable look.
Is war really just a matter of life and death?
Born in a peaceful era, Naruto, as the protagonist of a shonen anime, is almost never seen intentionally killing anyone.
Every single time, it's the supporting characters who willingly go to their deaths.
The sudden psychological letdown made the protagonist feel somewhat unbalanced.
The script shouldn't be like this.
......
The war officially began.
