Cos Wuzan, was stabbed ten times by Heize at the beginning

What kind of answer is this?

"Didn't you used to firmly believe that you wouldn't die?"

Kisame looked at the coffin lotus.

He still remembered how confident Jiulian looked on the beach back then.

Jiu Lian smiled helplessly.

"Because my mission is complete."

Kisame's mind was filled with the words the boy had said when they first met.

"My mission is to rescue Kirigakure from its suffering and transform it into a paradise."

To rescue Kirigakure from its suffering...

Kisame looked at Kirigakure, which appeared exceptionally peaceful and serene in the moonlight.

Jiulian did indeed do it.

His task has been completed.

"Is Kirigakure already considered a paradise?"

Kisame asked blankly.

He had been away from Kirigakure for a long time, and he didn't know what Kirigakure was like now.

"Yes."

Kei Ren nodded, affirming, "The entire Hidden Mist Village is working together to move forward. The leaders, ninjas, and ordinary people are all united as one, pulling the Hidden Mist Village toward prosperity. This is already a paradise..."

Working together?

Twist into one rope?

Prosperity?

Paradise?

Kisame wondered, were these words used to describe Kirigakure?

This place is completely unfamiliar!

Kisame found that whenever Kirigakure was mentioned, the first thing that came to his mind was still the Village of Blood Mist.

It turns out that, in other people's eyes, Kirigakure had already undergone a complete transformation.

"Will you die once your mission is complete?"

Kisame continued to ask.

If that's the case, then isn't the God of Bliss being far too selfish?

"It's not death, it's returning to the blissful god."

Kisame solemnly corrected Kisame's statement.

“I was already dead, but the God of Bliss gave me a new life.”

Looking at her hands, Keren earnestly said to Kisame, "My power comes from the God of Elysium. After completing my mission, I will merge with the God of Elysium..."

Kisame's pupils contracted as his brain raced, processing this information that was far too important to him.

A deep longing appeared on Jiulian's face.

"To fulfill our mission and become one with the God of Bliss is the pursuit of all of us apostles..."

Kisame stared at Keren, finding no trace of resentment on his face, but rather longing and anticipation.

The coffin seemed eager to merge with the god of bliss.

"And I am the first person to merge with the God of Bliss..."

Jiulian's pupils shone in the moonlight.

"This is the highest honor!"

Kisame's face went blank. He blinked, stunned by the powerful faith displayed by the coffin.

"Will the leader of the Eternal Bliss Cult also merge with the God of Bliss after completing his mission?"

Kisame asked curiously.

Jiu Lian nodded firmly.

"You are the Akatsuki's hunting target. Whether you live or die is your own choice."

Kisame said to Kaguya.

After hearing what Jiu Lian said, he had probably guessed her choice.

Kisame's figure disappeared from the spot.

Under the moonlight, only the shadow of the coffin lotus remained in the same spot.

Kisame's figure flew swiftly away from the Land of Water.

His steps suddenly stopped.

A familiar figure emerged from behind the tree.

Kisame's lips curled up, his pupils deepened, and he called out, "Itachi-san."

Itachi Uchiha sized up Kisame.

Why did Kisame send him away and return to Kirigakure?

Does Kisame have the same mission as him?

Questions arose in Itachi's mind like bubbles.

Kisame walked up to Itachi Uchiha and said, "I went to Kirigakure to gather some information."

Itachi Uchiha looked at him.

“Yuan Yingji Ren is the current Mizukage’s bodyguard. If we attack Yuan Yingji Ren, we might expose the Akatsuki organization to the Five Great Shinobi Villages even faster.”

Chapter 352 Cults, get out of Kumogakure!

"is it?"

Itachi said calmly.

Kisame nodded: "Gaara, the Jinchuriki of the One-Tailed Beast; Kei Ren, the Jinchuriki of the Three-Tailed Beast; Killer Bee, the Jinchuriki of the Eight-Tailed Beast; and Naruto Uzumaki, the Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tailed Beast, are all Jinchuriki from the Five Great Shinobi Villages. It would be more appropriate to capture them last."

Kisame relayed to Tendo the exact words he had spoken to Itachi.

Inside the cave, after listening to Kisame's words, Tendou's expression remained unchanged.

Kisame's words do make sense.

The Eternal Bliss Cult is currently the focus of discussion in the ninja world. If the Akatsuki's hunting of the Tailed Beasts were to be exposed at this time, the Akatsuki would replace the Eternal Bliss Cult and stand at the forefront of the ninja world's controversy.

The defenses of the major ninja villages will be strengthened, making it more difficult to hunt the tailed beasts within them.

Let's start by targeting the other tailed beasts for now!

"Itachi, Kisame, go and search for the Two-Tails."

"Deidara, Sasori, go and find the Six-Tails."

"What about the Seven-Tailed Fox?"

Kakuzu asked.

Tendo: "Rin is currently in Takigakure Village. I will entrust the task of hunting the Seven-Tails to him."

……

The Land of Thunder.

It's a cloudy day in Kumogakure today.

Dark, iron-colored clouds hung heavily overhead over Kumogakure, as if they were about to fall to the ground at any moment.

Lightning flashes occasionally streaked across the thick clouds.

In his office, Raikage glanced out the window while handling official business. He frowned, a sense of foreboding creeping into his heart.

Raikage withdrew his gaze and refocused his attention on the documents on the desktop.

Ten miles outside the gate of Hidden Cloud Village.

The black robe fluttered in the strong wind, revealing a family crest of a round fan.

Uchiha Shisui stopped and gazed at the gate of Kumogakure in the distance.

As Ji's wooden clogs continued to clatter as he walked ahead, urging Uchiha Shisui, who was lagging behind, to hurry up.

Uchiha Shisui smiled apologetically and caught up with Azami.

When Ji and Shisui appeared at the entrance of Kumogakure, crisscrossing lightning bolts exploded from the dark clouds hanging over everyone in Kumogakure, as if to cleave the entire village into pieces.

Who are you?

The ninja on duty from Kumogakure stepped forward and blocked the path of Azami and Shisui.

Suddenly, his pupils contracted; he recognized Shisui's appearance.

"Uchiha... Shisui!"

Almost the instant the ninja on duty finished speaking, countless Cloud Village ninjas emerged from the main gate of Cloud Village.

They watched Ji Zhi and Shi Shui warily.

Ji gave them a friendly smile.

"Don't misunderstand!"

He reached out his hand to soothe the emotions of the various ninjas.

"I've come to Kumogakure to spread my teachings..."

Before Ji Zhi could finish speaking, the Cloud Village ninja in front of him immediately said rudely, "Our Cloud Village does not welcome people from your Eternal Bliss Cult to preach!"

Ji Zhi's smile froze, and he asked in confusion, "Why?"

He spoke eloquently, "The God of Bliss can grant all your wishes, the God of Bliss can deliver you from suffering, and bring peace to Kumogakure..."

Ji's words were interrupted once again.

"Shut up!"

"Take your cult and get out of Kumogakure!"

A figure shot towards Ji Zhi.

Darui stood before Jizhi, carrying a long sword on his back and with his arms crossed.

"Cult?"

Ji's smile vanished.

He looked at Darui in front of him and said, "Your Hidden Cloud Village is extremely rude."

Darui sneered dismissively: "Respect is for those who deserve it. You... and you... do you cult members even deserve it?"

Ji raised an eyebrow. People from Kumogakure are just so short-tempered!

"Don't you remember what happened to those who offended the God of Bliss last time?"

Ji stared at Darui and asked.

"You mean Iwagakure?"

Darui chuckled coldly, "Our Hidden Cloud Village is not the same as the Hidden Stone Village! You are welcome to try and cause trouble in the Hidden Cloud Village!"

"We just want to spread our faith. Isn't your attitude going too far?"

Ji Zhi advised him patiently.

"Too much?"

Darui stared at the two people in front of him.
