At this point, Kisame was clearly no match for the elite Shinobi led by Ibiki Morino.

Kisame drew his weapon and struggled to restrain most of the enemy's forces.

Since our side consists mainly of code-switching squads, we don't have much combat power and will be taken down by the enemy very quickly.

After killing several Konoha Ninja, Kisame leaped into the air, planting Kunai Explosive Tags from his kunai in various locations around him.

The powerful explosion then bought a little time.

"Run now!" Upon hearing this, the other Shinobi from the Cipher Department also quickly began to retreat.

Only Kisame stayed at the very back, seemingly wanting to cover their retreat.

[Ao: As expected of Kisame, I acknowledge your loyalty to the village.]

Among Shinobi of the same era, Kisame was almost the strongest in terms of overall ability.

Therefore, they had no objection to Kisame inheriting the Samehada at his age.

[Ibiki Morino: Don't speak too confidently; these Shinobi won't escape.]

As expected, the Kunai that appeared from behind injured the foot of one of the code-breaking members.

The intense pain caused him to fall directly from the tree.

"Capture him alive!" Ibiki ordered, and a Konoha Ninja immediately gave chase.

"Unfortunately, there are too many people I need to protect." At this moment, Kisame didn't seem to have any intention of helping him, but instead directly gave him a warm Explosive Tag.

Kisame then continued forward after confirming that his opponent Kisame been killed in the explosion.

[Ao: Kisame, what are you doing? Why are you attacking your own comrades in the village?!]

Kisame's actions at this moment undoubtedly violated the village's rules.

But with each new emperor comes a new court; should we follow the rules of Karatachi Yagura or Obito Uchiha?

It's obvious that Kisame listened to the second one.

At this moment, the Anbu squad ahead was unaware of what had happened; they could only run forward as fast as they could.

Soon, Konoha's pursuers caught up, and at the same time, a Kunai Explosive Tag, blasting down two members of the signal squad.

"Help me, help me!"

At that moment, Kisame came to his side, and coincidentally, this was the same person who had mocked him before.

However, Kisame had no such intentions and simply sent them to Amaterasu with a single sword strike each.

At this point, the members of the code team were unaware that the number of people was decreasing as they walked, until they reached a cliff.

Looking at the bottomless cliff, the Shinobi from the code team trembled.

Little did they know that what truly terrified them was yet to come.

At this moment, Kakei Miwako asked Kisame Hoshigaki, "Mr. Hoshigaki, what should we do?"

Faced with Kakei Miwako's innocent face, Kisame simply walked silently to the other two.

Kisame then drew his weapon.

"What are you going to do?" It was obvious that the remaining two members of the code team were terrified.

"Mr. Hoshigaki..." Even Kakei Miwako looked incredulous. Although she knew that some policies in the village were cruel, she never thought that she would encounter them herself one day.

But Kisame didn't respond to her; everything he did was simply a task assigned to him by the village.

As expected, Kakei Miwako was slashed in the shoulder by Kisame's sword at this moment, but perhaps her willpower kept her from falling.

Kakei Miwako asked tremblingly, "Why?"

"Slaughtering my comrades, that's my exclusive mission!" It's hard to imagine what Kisame was thinking when he said those words.

At this moment, Kakei Miwako finally collapsed from the pain of her wound.

"Your life... must have been very tough." After saying this, she closed her eyes.

Kisame didn't give up on the possibility of any unexpected events. After seeing Kakei Miwako fall, he went forward again and stabbed her in the chest once more.

[Mei Terumi: How clueless you are about romance!]

Despite Mei Terumi's calm tone, she was actually furious inside; Kisame Hoshigaki was now on her target list.

[Hozuki Mangetsu: Kisame, is it really necessary to be so serious? Even if you fell into the hands of Konoha Ninja, they might not be as ruthless as you. One slash wasn't enough, you had to slash again to confirm? Are you even human?]

This doesn't mean that there's no hope of survival after being killed by the enemy; often, these hostages can be used as bargaining chips after the war ends.

These code-switching Shinobi were really unlucky to run into Kisame, such a dedicated person.

When Ibiki arrived, he was also surprised to see what was happening.

We're just asking for some information, how could you be so ruthless, even killing your own people?

Faced with Ibiki's questioning, Kisame simply explained, "You should know that you can't hand over intelligence agents to the enemy."

Kisame then jumped off the bottomless cliff.

[Obito: Unbelievable. There are people like Kisame? Does he value his comrades less than a small mission? And Kisame even invited him to dinner.]

Isn't this equivalent to Kakashi chasing after Rin and killing her to prevent the village's information from leaking after Rin was captured by Iwagakure?

I'm truly speechless. I thought Kakashi was bad enough before, but today I've run into someone even more freakish.

Anyone who gets to be your teammate is incredibly unlucky.

Besides, you can jump down if you're going to, so what's the harm in taking another person with you? Or is it that jumping down with a beautiful woman would ruin your cool and aloof image?

[The scene then shifts to Kisame Hoshigaki turning in his quest.]

But what's going on with this scene? Why is that old bastard Suikazan Fuguki lying on the ground?

There's so much blood around him, should we call an ambulance for him?

Kisame, keep looking! You're right here watching.

Oh, so it was Kisame who did it. That's alright then.

"Kisame, you!" At this moment, Suikazan Fuguki's mouth was covered in blood, and his hands were still gripping the Samehada. It was obvious that this guy had been killed by Kisame before he could even draw his sword.

Kisame threw away his bloodstained weapon, then turned and picked up Samehada from his boss's hand.

[Suikazan Fuguki: You Kisame, not only do you want my Samehada, but you also want my life!]

At this moment, the wandering Suikazan Fuguki was in a sorry state. He had failed his mission and dared not return to the village, because he knew that the person who betrayed him would never let him go.

Kisame usually seems so honest, but I never expected him to be so vicious. He's truly despicable.

After collecting his spoils, Kisame prepared to become a missing-nin.

Later, he thought about it and realized it wasn't enough to vent his anger, so he turned around and kicked the corpse of the Suikazan Fuguki again, and that finally made him feel better.

[Hozuki Mangetsu: Is the malice really that great?]

What the others didn't know was that all the missions Kisame carried out to harm his comrades were ordered by this cunning old man; he couldn't vent his anger without kicking him a few more times.
