Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World.

Chapter 67 Kisame's Trial

Kisame Hoshigaki scoffed, "The cycle of reincarnation game, how boring."

"Are you bored?"

Fang Yi looked calmly at the honest man with the deformed appearance in front of him and said, "Compared to the Eye of the Moon Project, which can help you escape reality and create a false refuge, it really can't tempt Mr. Kisame."

Kisame Hoshigaki, an elite ninja who rose to prominence during the Blood Mist era, has a history of growth that is a bloody and tearful tale of constantly killing his comrades.

He killed his classmates to graduate, and his comrades to protect intelligence.

He dared not yearn for friendship or love, and even dared not have too much contact with the ninjas in his village, for fear that if he became familiar with them, they would turn against each other. His heart was sealed away like a stone.

Until he met Obito, who was disguised as Madara Uchiha, he was like a firefly in the dark, and agreed to the Eye of the Moon Plan without hesitation.

A lost person, yearning for recognition and companionship, detesting falsehood, ultimately can only bury their head in the ground as if escaping.

"You bastard!"

Hearing the words that subtly revealed sarcasm, Kisame Hoshigaki's sharp fangs clashed together.

Such a bloody reality cannot be called reality at all; it is merely a false hell. Only the Eye of the Moon Plan, as mentioned by Mr. Madara, can bring down the real world.

Fang Yi smiled and said, "Whether it's real or fake, the Reincarnation Game can give you genuine power. The world you dream of also needs power to be realized."

These words struck a chord with Kisame.

He killed his comrades countless times, becoming an irredeemable scumbag, yet he was able to be regarded as a comrade by Mr. Madara and be accepted by him.

It's not just about escaping a false world.

It is also to keep up with the pace of one's companions; only great strength can achieve this.

Otherwise, if he were to encounter a scene like that again, would he have no choice but to kill his comrades to prevent the information from being leaked?

Or was he killed by his comrades, leaving their hands stained with blood?

He didn't want to.

A black letter appeared out of thin air and landed on Kisame Hoshigaki's Samehada.

With just a slight release of chakra, the black letter would be shredded to pieces by Samehada's spikes.

After a moment of silence, Kisame Hoshigaki gently lifted Samehada, reached out and pinched the corner of the black letter, taking out the invitation inside.

Fang Yi explained, "The small-scale trial qualification will teleport you to an unknown, polluted map. If you successfully complete it, you will be able to obtain a profession that resonates with your soul."

"My profession is a ninja, is there anything more fitting?"

Kisame Hoshigaki chuckled self-deprecatingly. Wasn't he, who had killed countless comrades to protect intelligence, already a ninja?

Fang Yi shook his head and said, "I'm just a game merchant, I don't know what kind of profession suits you, but fate will guide you in the right direction."

That's the allure of the runes of fate.

Of all the runes that can be created, fate is the most expensive, involving the past and future, soul and consciousness, and is the most elusive and uncertain substance.

The first level alone is worth millions of reward points, which can help players grow better. Fang Yi also chose to create it after careful consideration.

"Fate?"

Kisame Hoshigaki muttered this word as he began submitting his ninjutsu to the game's shop in exchange for a large number of reward points.

Various water-style ninjutsu techniques, which are extremely difficult to master, bring a large amount of primal power to the game's store.

Fang Yi sensed the increase in reward points and sighed inwardly.

Kisame Hoshigaki truly lives up to his reputation as a ninja born to master water-style techniques. His astonishing chakra reserves and affinity for water-style techniques are enough to rival Tobirama Senju in this aspect alone.

In the blink of an eye, the 5,000 reward points were already collected.

"Let's begin."

Kisame Hoshigaki looked at the black text in front of him, confirmed it, and instantly teleported.

Looking at Kisame Hoshigaki, who had fallen straight down, Fang Yi looked at Itachi Uchiha and laughed, "The game clearly prompted him to buy a protective shield, but he chose not to. It seems he trusts you, his partner, very much."

Uchiha Itachi remained noncommittal, giving an irrelevant answer: "Kisame is a very trustworthy comrade."

Do you remember Kisame once asking himself what it felt like to kill a comrade?

What I said at the time was that Kisame was a good-for-nothing who didn't even know where he was.

Because I am different from Kisame

From the very beginning, he was determined to achieve his goals, whether it was to become a despised double agent, to be entrusted with the Sharingan by Shisui, or to slaughter his entire clan and join the Akatsuki organization as a sinner and traitor.

He was very clear about his path in everything.

Kisame considers himself a comrade, but he cannot reciprocate by considering Kisame a comrade in the same way.

Because the path he chose, fraught with thorns and blood, was one that no one could walk alongside him.

Fang Yi asked with a normal smile, "And you, do you want to participate in the trial?"

He had no interest in exploring Itachi Uchiha's inner thoughts.

The game of reincarnation emphasizes equivalent exchange. Whether it's a scumbag who slaughters his entire clan or a saint who is willing to sacrifice for the ninja village, as long as they are willing to spend reward points, they are treated equally.

Uchiha Itachi said very politely, "Please give me the invitation, sir."

He only acts arrogantly in front of Sasuke.

Before he defected from the ninja village, most of his comrades thought of him as a polite and considerate person.

"As you wish."

The black letter fell into Itachi Uchiha's hands. After it was opened, Itachi's soul was teleported away.

A semi-transparent golden protective shield lit up around the body.

Although he was already a candle flickering in the wind, he could not die; this body, filled with sin, still needed to struggle to live.

"here it is?"

Kisame Hoshigaki got up from the ground, feeling very uncomfortable with the scorching heat.

The arid desert, withered trees scorched to crystallization.

It stretches as far as the eye can see.

[Small-scale Trial Begins]

Trial objective: Locate the Corrupted Forest at the edge of Hueco Mundo and kill the corrupted, fallen Hollows.

Note: The spirits of the dead who linger in the human world will eventually become evil and twisted vengeful spirits, and Hueco Mundo is the final destination of these vengeful spirits.

"This is ridiculous. I thought we'd end up at the beach."

Kisame Hoshigaki subconsciously reached out to grasp Samehada on his back, only to find that Samehada had disappeared.

To bring real-world items into the game, authentication is also required.

Samehada is a powerful ninja sword, comparable to a level 15 blue weapon, so it's impossible for Kisame to bring it in to increase his combat power for no reason.

The game emphasizes fairness; you can only become stronger by spending money.

Following the green arrow on the map,

Kisame walked on the soft, hot sand towards a dark green forest ahead.

He held the beginner's weapon in his backpack.

It is a double-edged greatsword.

"It can't compare to Samehada, but I'll make do with this for now."

Kisame Hoshigaki brandished his greatsword and pouted in obvious dissatisfaction.

Having lived with Samehada for so long, he is now very unaccustomed to it.
