"Yakushi Kabuto".

When this White Zetsu Clone found Yakushi Kabuto, it handed him the scroll, saying, "This was given to you by Yakushi Kabuto Lord Shirou."

"Yes."

Yakushi Kabuto was startled by the White Zetsu monster in front of him.

Fortunately, Yakushi Kabuto was bold enough, and since the other party mentioned Shirou Emiya, it was clear that he knew about his relationship with Lord Shirou, which is why he took the scroll.

However, when Yakushi Kabuto opened the scroll and saw its contents, his pupils widened in shock, which slowly transformed into a look of sudden understanding, before finally revealing a hint of confusion.

What's inside?

The White Zetsu Clone looked at Yakushi Kabuto, who was changing his expression, with some curiosity.

"Yes"

Yakushi Kabuto hesitated, unable to answer. He glanced at the White Zetsu Clone before him, somewhat puzzled, then suddenly laughed, "Lord Shirou has assigned us a mission to the Land of Water. I need you to help me gather some Hidden Mist Village Land of Water."

"All right."

The White Zetsu Clone couldn't help but sigh, seemingly reluctant to do this: "I hope this mission ends soon—"

"Um."

Yakushi Kabuto adjusted his glasses, his eyes subtly sweeping over the monster he had never seen before.

I remembered the coded message left on this scroll.

This scroll is very strange.

The scroll is mainly divided into three parts.

The first part contains information about the Impure World Reincarnation, including detailed theoretical research and technique improvements. Basically, from the development of the technique to its perfection, the completion rate far exceeds Orochimaru's progress, giving Yakushi Kabuto confidence that he can learn the technique.

Following Shirou Emiya's instructions, he hoped that Yakushi Kabuto would master this technique and Impure World Reincarnation some powerful ninjas to protect him before carrying out missions.

The second part concerns the mission to the Land of Water, in which he is ordered by Obito Uchiha to contact Kisame Hoshigaki and invite Kisame Hoshigaki to overthrow the Fourth Mizukage's Bloody Mist Policy. He even brings up a contingency plan in case Kisame's assassination Mizukage Kisame Hoshigaki fails.

Part Three seems to have been added temporarily.

Emiya Tsuchihara instructed him to use this White Zetsu Clone delivered the message as a sacrificial offering for the Impure World Reincarnation.

Shirou Emiya a lone traveler, and the Akatsuki did not have enough manpower. Yakushi Kabuto could understand why he could not send someone to protect him. Even using the dead did not carry any moral burden for Yakushi Kabuto.

The fact that the messenger was used as a sacrifice was what puzzled Yakushi Kabuto, because it was his first time encountering a creature called White Zetsu.

However, Yakushi Kabuto quickly understood.

White Zetsu monsters seem to have absolutely no brains.

On its way to the Land of Water, it repeatedly mentioned that it was not in the mood to carry out this mission, and just how much these White Zetsu really liked the amusing Obito Uchiha.

"Obito is still more fun."

"Compared to him, Lord Shirou is a bit too boring."

"All he does every day is write scrolls, and I've never seen him do anything interesting. I heard from his original self and Lord Black Zetsu that when he was first Impure World Reincarnation, all he did every day was treat patients and write Medical Record Scroll. That kind of life is so boring—"

"It seems to have been the same in Ancient Era— "

"When Lord Black Zetsu talked about the Ancient Era, he said that Lord Shirou's life was even more boring than when he was resurrected last time. He was either healing the sick or on his way to heal the sick, and he didn't have any interesting companions around him."

Nothing interesting ever happened.

Is this person sick?

He must be mentally ill.

Throughout the journey, Yakushi Kabuto had to listen to the White Zetsu Clone's evaluation of Shirou Emiya and Obito Uchiha. The more he listened, the stranger it seemed. He couldn't understand how someone like Obito Uchiha could be compared to Emiya Shigenori.

White Zetsu are creatures whose way of thinking is quite different from that of humans.

Fortunately.

Besides being a medical ninja, Yakushi Kabuto was also an excellent spy.

As a basic quality of an excellent spy, Yakushi Kabuto always wore a warm and friendly smile. Even when Yakushi Kabuto disagreed with the White Zetsu's ideas, he could still have a very pleasant conversation with this White Zetsu Clone.

"Yeah?"

"From what you've said, Obito Uchiha is quite interesting."

"After all, the job of a medical ninja is really quite boring. I'm a medical ninja myself, and sometimes I also feel that saving people is too troublesome."

While smiling and chatting happily with his White Zetsu Clone, Yakushi Kabuto diligently studied the Impure World Reincarnation on the way, trying to master it as soon as possible.

The Land of Water, the Hidden Mist Village.

This isolated ninja village in a major country is quite peculiar; a perpetual fog hangs over the village, mixed with the stench of blood.

In this village, killing one's own comrades seems to be of no concern at all, because the ninjas of Hidden Mist Village often receive high-ranking missions to eliminate their comrades.

No one knows when they might kill their comrade.

No one knows when they will be killed by their own comrades.

In this village of blood and mist, trust between people has plummeted to its lowest point, and the village ninjas have long been accustomed to deception, betrayal, and bloodshed.

"What should we do first?"

White Zetsu Clone and Yakushi Kabuto easily infiltrated Hidden Mist Village.

First stop

It's the cemetery of Hidden Mist Village.

The White Zetsu Clone didn't understand Yakushi Kabuto's mission; it could only follow Yakushi Kabuto and didn't quite understand why Yakushi Kabuto had come to the Hidden Mist Village cemetery.

"Let's find a strong helper first."

Yakushi Kabuto carefully examined the tombstones in Hidden Mist Village, searching for a suitable target, until he stopped in front of a grave and dug out a skeleton inside.

Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki.

The Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki, who fought against Shirou Emiya during the First Shinobi World War, returned to Hidden Mist Village after the Shinobi World War ended and lived out his remaining years there.

Theoretically speaking, he might be the strongest person in Hidden Mist Village.

During the Second Shinobi World War, Gengetsu Hozuki also made an appearance and has always been the most renowned figure among the Mizukage of all time.

"You're going to use the Impure World Reincarnation?"

The White Zetsu Clone immediately understood Yakushi Kabuto's meaning, stroking his chin in thought, "I've been responsible for monitoring Orochimaru, and I also saw him revive Lord Shirou. I remember this technique seems to require a sacrifice, and we need to go to Hidden Mist Village to capture one..."

"No need."

Yakushi Kabuto slowly shook his head.

As Yakushi Kabuto raised his finger, the jet-black Curse Mark flowed slowly across his arm like water, quickly putting his body into Cursed Seal Mode!

The next moment!

A heavy blow slammed into the neck of the White Zetsu Clone!

Yakushi Kabuto's sneak attack came so suddenly that the White Zetsu Clone didn't even have time to react. It stared dazedly at Yakushi Kabuto eyes were filled with killing intent!

"Yakushi Kabuto, you—"

The White Zetsu Clone didn't quite understand why Yakushi Kabuto wanted to ambush it.

The two of them chatted happily along the way, and even became friends. Why would Yakushi Kabuto attack it at this moment?

"Feel sorry."

The glasses on Yakushi Kabuto's glasses gleamed white in the moonlight.

The gray-haired youth's eyes were hidden behind his glasses, and his voice gradually turned cold as he coldly said, "From the very beginning, I've found a medical ninja who heals the sick and saves lives more interesting than a fool who created the Nine Tails Riot and killed countless people."

"Thank you for coming with me."

"This way, I can have a sacrificial material for casting spells without alerting the people of Hidden Mist Village."

Yakushi Kabuto lowered his head, his hands slowly coming together, calmly forming a hand seal, his movements as gentle as if he were treating a patient in the past.

"Ninjutsu."

"The Impure World Reincarnation".

Yakushi Kabuto's hand gently landed on the ground.

Before the terrified eyes of this White Zetsu Clone, wisps of dust emerged from the corpse on the ground, quickly sticking to its body!

Yakushi Kabuto's mind raced as he calculated the Impure World Reincarnation he had mastered, watching the rapidly changing Impure World Reincarnation Body.

"It looks like—"

"White Zetsu is a very suitable material for sacrifices."

"At least judging from the changes in the Impure World Reincarnation Body, it might be possible to revive a Second Mizukage in his prime." The moment the Impure World Reincarnation Body completed its transformation, Yakushi Kabuto immediately raised his finger to prevent the Second Mizukage from becoming out of control after being revived. "The completeness of this Impure World Reincarnation also seems to enhance the control over the caster. In addition to being able to completely control the other party's every move, it can also directly issue commands to the Impure World Reincarnation user—"

"This is-"

The Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki, opened his lifeless eyes with a somewhat bewildered expression. Looking at his palms, he immediately realized his predicament. "Tobirama Senju's Impure World Reincarnation?"

"Congratulations to the Second Mizukage on his return to the mortal world."

A habitual smile appeared on Yakushi Kabuto's face, but his eyes were devoid of any emotion. "Come and join us in bringing peace to this world."

"Hey, wait a minute—"

The Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki, recalled the first person in the Shinobi World to be resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation. Knowing his own limitations, he loudly voiced his opposition. "Even if another Shinobi World War breaks out in this world, I can't possibly quell it like Lord Shirou. Don't count on me, you strange brat!"

However-

Yakushi Kabuto ignored his objections.

Because he still needed to carry out Obito Uchiha's plan, he simply took out a coffin and sealed the Second Mizukage away.

Hidden Mist Village.

Deep inside a damp underground building.

The people in this building have killed many people, some of whom were enemies and some were allies. They hide in the depths of darkness, carrying out the will of the higher-ups of the Kirigakure.

Compared to the Anbu of other ninja villages, who may still have the will to protect the village or their comrades, the Anbu of Hidden Mist Village have been trained to be true killing tools.

Many Hidden Mist Ninja were executed by their fellow village's Anbu, who Anbu often stained with the blood of their comrades.

In.

Kisame Hoshigaki is undoubtedly the one most tainted by bloodshed.

Because the Hoshigaki Clan is born with the talent to absorb Chakra, Kisame became an excellent ninja at a young age and was recruited into the Anbu early on, diligently carrying out all the orders assigned to him.

Include·

Kill the comrade you were protecting.

If you are unable to protect some of your comrades, and when you encounter the enemy, in order to prevent your comrades from falling into enemy hands...

Then kill your comrade before the enemy captures him.

Later, Kisame's strength became even more outstanding. During this time, he was ordered to kill his superior, Suikazan Fuguki, who had colluded with the enemy, and obtained Samehada from him, becoming one of the new Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist of the Mist.

On the very day he obtained the Samehada, Kisame Hoshigaki also witnessed the truth about Hidden Mist Village. He also saw Madara Uchiha, who was controlling the Fourth Mizukage. His hope for this absurd and false world led him to join Madara Uchiha's Eye of the Moon Plan.

Logically speaking, Kisame had found a true purpose in life.

However, Kisame Hoshigaki has been in a rather unpleasant mood lately, and he has also received some news about Obito Uchiha, S-Rank Missing-nin Miyō, who once impersonated Madara.

Have I been scammed again?

What is truly real in this world?

Kisame began to feel lost again. He wanted to see Obito Uchiha and ask him directly for an answer about truth and falsehood.

"Is that 'Lord Madara' too afraid to come see me?"

Kisame has a face like a shark, and he harbors many unanswered questions.

He could only quietly repair his Samehada.

This matter cannot be blamed on Obito Uchiha.

After all, Obito Uchiha had been very busy lately. After meeting Shirou Emiya, he was caught in a vicious cycle of conflict with Shigenori and couldn't escape it. In order to stay in the Akatsuki, he had no choice but to obey Shirou Emiya's orders.

They can't even move freely.

Certainly.

There is another reason for this as well.

For Obito Uchiha, Kisame was merely a suitable tool for carrying out the Eye of the Moon Plan, and could never compare to the control over the Eye of the Moon Plan.

Unfortunately, humans are ultimately capable of independent thought, and no one wants to be ignored, especially by those on whom they have high hopes, because they may worry about being abandoned.

"Um?"

Kisame Hoshigaki suddenly stopped repairing Samehada with his hands. His ears were very sensitive and he heard a very faint footstep, which made him subconsciously alert!

This faint sound of footsteps

They don't sound like the village's Anbu Ninja.

However, the newcomer must be someone who is extremely skilled at operating in the dark!

"Come out, I've heard you."

Kisame reached out and grabbed the Samehada Kisame. His own light fell at the corner of the passage, and his Chakra was already quietly being activated!

"How perceptive!"

A gray-haired young man wearing glasses walked out from around the corner, smiling as he looked at the wary Kisame Hoshigaki. However, he felt more confident tonight and was no longer afraid of this rumored ruthless Kirigakure Anbu.

It was Yakushi Kabuto.

His past experience of infiltrating Hidden Mist Village gave him some knowledge of the Hidden Mist Village's intelligence and made him aware that this was the location of Hidden Mist Village's Anbu).

"Were they people who infiltrated from a hostile village?"

Kisame Hoshigaki picked up his Samehada, intending to kill this uninvited guest to kill some of his boredom. "Looks like your luck isn't so good—"

"No..."

"I should say I was lucky."

Yakushi Kabuto smiled and said softly, "It only took a little time before I ran into the person Obito asked me to find..."

"!!!"

Kisame Hoshigaki's pupils suddenly narrowed!

His shark-like eyes were fixed on Yakushi Kabuto in front of him!

"Only-"

Yakushi Kabuto adjusted his glasses, sensing that Kisame Hoshigaki's killing intent hadn't dissipated, which made him wonder, "I wonder if Obito's subordinates are willing to obey his orders."

What the hell!

Didn't Obito Uchiha say that Kisame Hoshigaki was his subordinate?

Why does Kisame Hoshigaki, who doesn't seem to be very loyal to Obito Uchiha, still act like he wants to kill him?

Just as Yakushi Kabuto felt a sense of unease, Kisame Hoshigaki suddenly sheathed his Samehada, and his killing intent receded rapidly like a tide.

"Is what's circulating in the Shinobi World true?"

Kisame Hoshigaki frowned. He knew that Yakushi Kabuto's words had confirmed one thing. "That 'Madara' wearing a mask is actually Obito Uchiha missing-nin of Konoha?"

Yakushi Kabuto's gaze finally turned strange; he realized that the connection between Kisame Hoshigaki and Obito Uchiha didn't seem very strong.

Obito Uchiha actually impersonated Madara Uchiha to recruit Kisame Hoshigaki!

Now that guy's identity has been exposed, he still naively believes that Kisame Hoshigaki is still loyal to him!

Fortunately-·

Kisame Hoshigaki doesn't seem to have any intention of turning against them yet.

Fortunately-·

He had prematurely Impure World Reincarnation the Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki...
