Fuguki clutched his wound, questioning in pain.
He couldn't understand what Kisa would gain by betraying him.
"Betrayal? To , when you betrayed your comrades from the sa village to gain the Hidden Cloud's trust, you were no longer the goal I believed in. What do you think I joined your ranks for?"
Kisa nonchalantly retorted.
"Is that so? I understand now, the matter with the Hidden Cloud, you leaked it to Yagura, didn't you?"
Fuguki realized sothing, all the things he didn't understand suddenly beca clear.
A hateful and vicious gaze, as if he wanted to devour Kisa alive.
The biggest traitor was right by his side, sothing Fuguki never anticipated.
But thinking carefully, it was also logical.
Because Kisa was one of the few confidants who knew of his conspiracy with the Hidden Cloud, once he chose to betray, the consequences were obvious.
Kisa remained silent, whether in acknowledgnt or simply unwilling to argue over such matters.
But Fuguki seed convinced, laughing heartily, coughing up blood as he sneered:
"However, using my head as a token of allegiance, that's quite sothing, Kisa. You're more capable than I imagined, I really didn't misjudge your abilities. But don't forget, scum like you who sells out for glory will never gain anyone's trust! Haha... ugh!"
Despite being breathless, Fuguki was still laughing heartily.
His words, like a venomous curse, deeply pierced Kisa's heart, tightening his fists.
Yes, regardless of the reason, he was Fuguki's subordinate; betraying his superior in the Ninja Realm was indeed disgraceful.
And soone like him had no right to earn anyone's trust.
An ugly and ridiculous traitor!
Now that he had betrayed Fuguki, he might betray others in the future.
No one could guarantee he wouldn't do similar things later on.
Noticing Ringo Ayuri's wary gaze, Kisa bitterly smiled inside.
Indeed, he was being suspected.
It was only natural for soone who betrayed their superior to be viewed with caution and disdain.
This was probably a form of torture as well.
But Kisa felt no regret; if he had to do it again, he would choose the sa path.
He was a Hidden Mist ninja, and what Fuguki did had exceeded his limits of tolerance.
"I don't long for anyone's trust, spending the rest of my life in prison... I've prepared for that!"
Kisa replied.
"What a pathetic traitor, still hoping for unrealistic fantasies. But even so, don't think I'll die at Yagura's hands! Only I can kill myself!"
Fuguki knew the situation was set, and he couldn't change it.
Kisa had deliberately avoided vital points, only severely injuring him without killing, clearly intending to capture him alive.
However, under no circumstances could he allow himself to fall into Yagura's hands and be executed by a political adversary.
In that case, he would truly die without peace, more disgraceful than death.
An unexpected resolve glinted in Fuguki's eyes as he drew the blade from his body.
Blood gushed from the wound, covering the ground.
To him, death was no longer to be feared.
His face twitched from pain.
With both hands gripping the hilt tightly, he unhesitatingly stabbed it toward his own throat.
With blood coughing from his mouth and a strange smile, Fuguki stared at the shocked Kisa, falling to the ground, his lips weakly moving, seemingly saying, 'I'll be waiting for you below.'

Water flowed over the Tailed Beast Ball, sealing it again.
But as a result, the Third Mizukage began to feel exhausted, his Chakra reduced to less than a third of its original amount.
In contrast, Yagura, supported by the Three-tailed Beast within, continuously unleashed Ninja Techniques with seemingly endless Chakra and energy.
Yagura's strategy at this mont was to deplete the Third Mizukage's strength and Chakra.
Only by doing this could he ensure absolute victory over the Third Mizukage.
The Third Mizukage knew this couldn't go on, so he used Water Instant Body imdiately, rushing at Yagura, attempting to close the distance for combat.
However, Yagura didn't intend to give the Third Mizukage this chance.
At their level of strength, closing the distance wasn't that easy.
The Third Mizukage understood this too, but it was the only way to turn the tide.
If he continued to be held at a distance, worn out by the Tailed Beast Ball, he truly had no chance of victory.
"Water Style: Water Mirror Jutsu!"
Yagura raised the staff before him, and from the mirror erged a figure identical to the Third Mizukage, simultaneously opening its mouth to spray a torrent, colliding in the air.
The power of the Water Dragon Slash was negated, resulting in a stalemate.
Yagura was able to perfectly replicate everything about the enemy, including Ninja Techniques, Illusion Techniques, and Taijutsu, with equal power. Given the right conditions, Kekkeigenkai and Jinchuriki states could be fully mimicked.
Once in close range, Yagura used this technique to counter the Third Mizukage's attacks.
Then swiftly leaping back, he widened the gap, deploying a large-scale Water Style as a feint, creating a favorable opportunity, secretly beginning to condense a Tailed Beast Ball.
The Third Mizukage's energy was visibly depleting rapidly, leaving him breathless.
There was no ti to delay, it must be settled quickly! The determination in the Third Mizukage's eyes was unwavering.
