A ti-space vortex appeared at the foot of the mountain, and the mysterious masked man’s figure erged. A mont later, an extrely cute young girl jumped out from the vortex, appearing beside him.
The mysterious masked man glanced at the Hidden Mist ninjas leaping through the forest, then turned to the girl beside him, "Soon, that brat will be gravely injured. You must risk your life to save him, understand?"
"Yes."
The girl lowered her head and continued softly, "As long as I make him fall in love with , you promised to spare my hotown and let et Kakashi..."
"Of course."
The mysterious masked man tapped his arm, his voice grave, "I never break my promises. Still, it’s hard to understand why there are won who like a useless ninja like Kakashi."
"Mr. Kakashi is not useless!"
The girl bit her lip, obviously afraid of the masked man beside her, yet she mustered up the courage to refute his words.
The mysterious masked man snorted and ignored her.
Of course, the mysterious masked man wouldn’t tell Karin that Hatake Kakashi was also in this forest, being pursued by a group of Mist Village Ninjas, and this ti, unlike in the past, there would be no one arriving in ti to save him...
Inside the forest.
The Pursuing Ninja Squad led by Hoshigaki Kisa had just entered the forest, still tracking the direction of Hatake Kakashi.
Crack!
A card was pinned to a tree!
Just as the ninjas were on alert, avoiding it, and looking towards the source of the card, another card flew in, targeting none other than the leader of the Pursuing Ninja Squad, Hoshigaki Kisa.
Even though Kisa dodged the card attack just in ti, he couldn’t avoid the card grazing his face, leaving a narrow wound from which a few drops of blood slowly trickled.
The montum of the card was so strong that it even severed a wild tree as thick as a bowl!
Kisa’s face remained calm as he waved to his subordinates, "Hmm? Soone’s targeting , huh? Go inform Lord Terumi i that I have a small matter to handle here, and you go assist Lord Terumi i in capturing the target."
"Yes, Captain!"
The Pursuing Ninja Squad solemnly accepted the command and leaped far away, not worried at all about their captain encountering an enemy.
Since Hoshigaki Kisa took over from Suikazan Fuguki, they beca Kisa’s subordinates and witnessed the terrifying might of the Hidden Mist Monster firsthand. To this day, whenever Hoshigaki Kisa led them on missions, they had never failed!
What they didn’t know was that Hoshigaki Kisa had long beco a subordinate of the mysterious masked man behind the Mizukage.
On the surface, Hoshigaki Kisa was tasked with capturing Kakashi;
In reality, Kisa’s true task was to severely injure Uehara Naraku, as brutally as possible, and then let a young girl rescue him.
Although Kisa didn’t understand why the mysterious masked man gave him such a peculiar task, as long as it was a mission, he would resolutely carry it out.
"Co out, brat!"
Kisa revealed a mouthful of shark teeth, showing a terrifying smile, "Brat, I haven’t fought with all my might for a long ti. If you entertain today, I might let you choose a more comfortable death."
"Hoshigaki Kisa."
A young figure appeared before Kisa, his body floating in mid-air, skillfully twirling a few cards between his fingers.
Uehara Naraku looked down at Hoshigaki Kisa, speaking softly, "Well, although we both know the outco, we still have to go through the process. I’m inviting you to join an organization dedicated to maintaining peace in the Ninja World. Are you interested?"
"Of course not."
Kisa sneered and lowered the Shark Skin Greatsword in his hands, coldly saying, "Brat, I am a ninja who loves slaughter!"
"How unfortunate, because I’m a person who loves peace!"
Uehara’s eyes narrowed slightly, and the cards in his hand suddenly shot toward the ground at Kisa, each card whizzing through the air with such speed that they carved airwaves!
With the rewards from Advanced Task 3, Uehara’s physical strength was significantly enhanced, and the power and speed of his card throwing were much greater than before!
Kisa was even faster!
When he saw the cards being thrown, he flickered to avoid the card attack, but one of the cards suddenly exploded like an explosive charm!
Kisa didn’t have ti to defend; he was blasted away, his clothes destroyed by the explosion, his body riddled with injuries. However, thanks to the Shark Skin’s incredible healing power, Kisa’s wounds quickly healed back to normal.
"Hey, how does it feel?"
Uehara Naraku flew around in the air, speaking softly, "If you were to die, our organization would have to find soone suitable again!"
"...If you want to kill , this won’t be enough!"
Kisa responded coldly, firmly stabbing the Shark Skin Greatsword into the ground, fully recognizing the difficulty of his enemy!
If Uehara remained airborne, attacking him would undoubtedly be much more challenging, making it hard to utilize his Taijutsu advantage and the Chakra absorption feature of the Shark Skin.
In that case, change the terrain!
"Water Release: Great Bursting Water Wave!"
Kisa quickly perford hand seals, spewing a tidal wave from his mouth, the water beneath his feet rising nearly level with Uehara Naraku’s height in the air.
Without pausing, Kisa continued forming hand seals, biting his finger: "Water Release: Water Shark Bomb Jutsu!"
A water shark appeared beside Kisa, encasing his body as it leapt out of the water, agilely charging towards Uehara Naraku in the air!
This guy actually ca up with a way to attack an airborne enemy, and if he could knock Uehara Naraku down, he could imdiately leverage his strong Taijutsu advantage.
When Kisa neared Uehara Naraku, he noticed Uehara’s face seemingly panicking while forming hand seals, one of which wasn’t even standard...
"Hmph, kid, you ford the Summoning Jutsu hand seal wrong!"
Kisa sneered, his wrist suddenly exerting force, about to grab Uehara’s neck and bring him down to the ground!
"Ninpo: Summoning Jutsu!"
Yet, with a soft shout from the young ninja, a towering monster appeared between them, flinging its anchor precisely at Kisa, dragging him back down!
Kisa couldn’t resist the overwhelming force, falling from the air with the monster back into the lake he created.
Once Kisa recovered, he finally saw what kind of monster the brat had summoned...
A monster nearly three tis his height, entirely encased in iron armor with only two yellow glowing eyes, holding a massive anchor connected to its body by a tight chain.
What astounded Kisa was that this monster could breathe freely underwater like him and move without hindrance.
Uehara Naraku clapped his hands together, descended to the water’s edge, and said with a light laugh, "Mr. Kisa, allow to introduce you. This is the Deep Sea Titan Nautile, specially prepared for your underwater battle..."
