The Senju remnants of the Uchiha clan

After Chapter 137, please fight as my companion!

"As the so-called confidant of the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon, don't you even know about it?"

There was a trace of pity in Shiratori's eyes when he looked at Kisame: "The Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon betrayed Kirigakure and secretly colluded with Kumogakure, intending to become the Mizukage through a coup with the help of Kumogakure... The mission of the Code Division this time is to exchange secret information with the people of Kumogakure."

"Colluding with Kumogakure... plotting a coup... Wait! How do you, a Konoha man, know all this? Are you trying to sow discord between me and Master Fuguki? As far as I know, this mission is to contact the spies from Kirigakure who infiltrated Kumogakure..."

Kisame shook his head vigorously to get rid of those bad thoughts from his mind. In his heart, he was unwilling to believe Shiratori's "nonsense".

"That's right. After all, I'm the enemy now..." Shiratori acted indifferent and just pointed at Miru: "There's someone who knows the inside story here. Do you want to ask him?"

Kisame turned his head towards Miru.

"Mr. Kisame… I… I don't know…" Miru faltered in her answer.

"There's no use hiding it."

Shiratori found a protruding tree root and sat on it comfortably. "I will also go to rob and kill the people from Kumogakure. When the time comes, we will use the code tables of both sides to compare and basically know everything... They are almost here now, how about I take you to have a look?"

"Is what he said... true?" Kisame asked in a deep voice.

After a long silence, Miru finally nodded with difficulty: "...Yes."

"Why?!" There was no expression on Kisame's face, but his hand holding the ninja sword was extremely tight and was even trembling slightly.

The blade of the ninja sword cut Miru's skin, but she didn't care: "Why? If you are asking about Master Fugu's plan, then I don't know. If you are asking if I betrayed the village, then my answer... is yes!"

She looked into Kisame's eyes without flinching:
“A cruel and bloody rule, endless fratricide, and a future without hope… Is such a village worth protecting?
My brother and sister both died in the 'graduation exam' of the Ninja School, killed by their classmates! My parents wanted to ask for an explanation, but they were arrested by the Anbu and died in prison for no apparent reason!
The Hidden Mist Village is rotten to the core. This village that we were proud of back then... is now disgusting! Whoever wants to change this, I will support them, even if the final outcome is destruction, it is better than now!"

After saying what had been suppressed in her heart for a long time, Miru felt relieved and no longer cared about her own life or death.

Kisame, on the other hand, fell into deep self-doubt.

The mission is fake, the companions are fake, even the boss who is devoted to the village is fake...

In the eyes of others, he is the trusted lackey of the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Ghost, but the Puffer Ghost never believed him from beginning to end...

He originally thought that his actions in dealing with his companions were for the sake of the Hidden Mist Village, but now he is told that this was just a personal plot of his superior, and he was even inexplicably tied to the chariot of rebellion... He, a ninja who was devoted to the village, was actually a fake!

"So...is anything else true?"

Kisame looked at Shiratori, his eyes full of confusion and helplessness.

"Ahem..." Shiratori coughed lightly, with no intention of letting Kisame go: "Although it's cruel, I still want to tell you one thing..."

He told Kisame that the Fourth Mizukage, Karutagi Yagura, had been controlled by illusions for many years.

“…All the orders you received, all the missions you carried out, and all the policies you implemented did not come from the Mizukage at all.

I'm sorry, but the Hidden Mist Village is filled with lies from top to bottom.

Even if you succeed in removing the control of the Mizukage, do you think you will be let off? It is an indisputable fact that you followed the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Ghost to collude with foreign enemies and rebel against the Kirigakure.

No matter how many difficulties you have, no matter whether you have been deceived or not, the final outcome will be that you will be executed and charged with treason. "

Kisame laughed softly, and his voice grew louder and louder.

He threw the ninja sword on Miru's neck aside and opened his arms to Shiratori: "Come on, kill me! I would rather be killed by you than die at the hands of a ninja from the same village." Miru no longer ran away, but looked at Shiratori calmly.

Shiratori scratched his head: "What are you talking about? I'm not going to kill you! I said from the beginning that I wanted to recruit you... What do you think? Anyway, you can't go back to the Hidden Mist Village, why don't you follow me?"

"Hehe..." Kisame smiled and shook his head, "Am I still worthy of trust?"

"worth."

Shiratori's serious answer was beyond Kisame's expectations, and he asked in confusion, "Why?"

"Because you are Hoshigaki Kisame!"

Bai Niao's eyes were extremely sincere. "As long as you agree to submit to me now - verbal promise is enough, then I will let you go immediately and never break my promise! Your mission has always been to kill your companions, so from now on... you will fight as my companion! How do you think?"

"This..." Kisame's expression was very interesting. He had never been fully trusted by anyone in his life, but he did not expect to gain respect and trust from his enemy, Shiratori.

"Not only that..." Shiratori continued, "Don't you want to know what it feels like to protect your companions? I can give you a chance right now! As long as you promise me, I can let the female ninja next to you go."

The woods fell into silence for a moment. The white bird was not in a hurry, but just waited quietly.

A few minutes later.

After a fierce ideological struggle, Kisame walked up to Shiratori and knelt on one knee: "Shiratori... Sir, I am willing to be loyal to you!"

Shiratori laughed loudly and patted Kisame on the shoulder: "Kisame, what are your plans next?"

"Mr. Shiratori... I'm sorry, but I want to do one last thing as a ninja from the Hidden Mist Village."

"what's up?"

"I want to sneak back to Kirigakure and kill the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon who colluded with the enemy and betrayed Kirigakure! I know this request is a bit excessive-"

"Okay, let's go."

Before Kisame could finish, Shiratori agreed: "You are free now, do whatever you want, and wait for me here afterwards... The Hidden Mist Village will be in chaos during this period, and they probably won't have the energy to hunt you down."

"Thank you, Mr. White Bird."

"Oh, by the way, the Samehada of the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon is very suitable for you. Don't forget to get that ninja sword."

"Yes."

The white bird left.

He did what he said and really let Kisame and Miru go.

Kisame and Miru looked at the direction where Shiratori left for a long time in silence.

"Miru..." Kisame suddenly spoke. This was the first time he called the other person's name.

"Mr. Kisame, what's wrong?"

"You said you would eat with me... Is there anything to eat? I'm hungry."
