Shirou Emiya has a very strong mental fortitude.

Even when Hidan revealed that he was an evil god, he was already convinced that someone was acting in his name, rather than that his true nature had been exposed.

Perhaps the disguise was too overdone.

He even believed that he could never be some kind of evil god.

In comparison...

Hidan's mental fortitude is rather weak.

When Hidan learned that the man who had beheaded him was Shirou Emiya, he even cursed Emiya Shigenori for blaspheming the evil god he worshipped.

"How dare you blaspheme the name of the Lord Jashin!"

"Do you know Lord Jashin?!"

Hidan, his face contorted with rage, raised his head and shouted at Shirou Emiya, "The Lord Jashin is the strongest medical ninja of Ancient Era!"

Shirou Emiya was in a bad mood.

"It's you who's blaspheming Lord Shirou's reputation."

Kakuzu gripped Hidan's head tightly, punching him in the face and beating the young man, then forced him to reveal information about the so-called Evil God Sect: "Tell me, who told you that Lord Shirou is an Jashin?"

Hidan, bruised and battered, revealed all the information.

Hidan comes from the Evil God Sect.

This Evil God Sect has always worshipped Emiya Tsuchihara.

While others respected Shirou Emiya's Medical Ninjutsu, the Evil God Sect was dedicated to creating killer monsters through the human medical experiments left behind by Shirou Emiya.

Several years ago, this group of the Evil God Sect members finally created Hidan, an immortal monster, through a human experimentation method. This was their first successful test subject, and they immediately couldn't wait to spread Hidan existence of Jashin Shirou Emiya throughout the world.

"I don't understand anything about genes or anything like that!"

"All I know is how to kill everyone in the world!"

When Hidan spoke of the Evil God Sect's doctrines, his face became somewhat fanatical and manic. "This is the power he bestowed upon me. I will sacrifice all their souls to Lord Shirou!"

Kakuzu slapped Hidan across the face.

"You bastard!"

Hidan angrily cursed Kakuzu.

"Where are those members of the Evil God Sect?"

Shirou Emiya couldn't help but rub his temples.

"I killed them all!"

Hidan stopped cursing Kakuzu, his mouth involuntarily widening into a frenzied grin as he spoke his thoughts, "In this world, one true believer favored by Lord Shirou is enough—just me!"

Kakuzu grabbed his head.

"Take him back to the Akatsuki base."

Shirou Emiya took a deep breath and gestured to Kakuzu Hidan, the only successful experimental subject, back with him.

He will find time to study Hidan's immortality in the future.

If nothing unexpected happens, the human experiments on Hidan likely involved DNA and genetics.

When human science emerges, there will inevitably be people in this world who create monsters through human experimentation. It's unknown how many experiments that destroyed Evil God Sect conducted before finally producing a successful experimental subject like Hidan.

"Where is Lord Shirou?"

Kakuzu hoisted Hidan's body onto his shoulder, holding Hidan's head in his hand, and said in a deep voice, "If Lord Shirou needs any information in the Land of Land of Hot Springs, he can go to the Orphanage there. The descendants of the Uzumaki have lived in this country for a long time—"

"Um."

Shirou Emiya did not reject Kakuzu's offer.

However, Emiya Tsuchihara didn't need to get any more information from them, because he had already learned Kisame Hoshigaki's whereabouts when he arrived in the Land of Hot Springs.

Moreover, Kisame did not conceal his whereabouts.

As a ninja with a peculiar appearance, Kisame Hoshigaki's appearance easily attracts attention. His eyes are like those of a shark, and his face has gill patterns like those of a shark. When he opens his mouth to speak, he reveals a mouthful of sharp shark teeth, which makes people feel intimidated and even panic and step aside to make way for him.

In this situation...

Kisame Hoshigaki was already used to it.

Kisame left Orochimaru's base and wandered around the Shinobi World, waiting for the Akatsuki to send someone to recruit him.

But..

The Akatsuki's actions seem somewhat slow.

After spending several days soaking in hot springs with his Samehada, Kisame Hoshigaki guessed that the Akatsuki might not have noticed his presence and planned to create a major incident somewhere.

However··

Kisame Hoshigaki did not find it.

Someone had been quietly following him.

Riverside in the Land of Grass.

Kisame Hoshigaki killed the Hidden Grass Village Leader and the Land of Grass Daimyo. He created two incidents that were destined to attract the attention of the Shinobi World, and is currently repairing Samehada after the battle.

To be honest.

Life has been a bit easier lately.

As a Hidden Mist Ninja, Kisame Hoshigaki's past life was one of constant killing; he needed to kill his enemies and his comrades.

His hometown, Hidden Mist Village, only issued Wanted List but did not send out any hunting forces to hunt down the missing-nin. Perhaps the village could not spare suitable personnel, or perhaps there was still internal chaos after the death of the Fourth Mizukage.

During this time, Kisame Hoshigaki finally enjoyed a relaxation he had never experienced before. Although he needed to kill a little to create incidents and attract the attention of the Akatsuki, it did not cause him any nerve-wracking trouble.

Kisame Hoshigaki wasn't in a hurry.

Despite Obito Uchiha's great impatience, Kisame Hoshigaki remained calm and composed, intending to continue his journey through the Shinobi World with great interest.

But·

He will never have the chance to enjoy this relaxing time again.

A voice quietly appeared in Kisame Hoshigaki's ear, seemingly finally drawn by his killing of two important figures from the Land of Grass: "Kisame Hoshigaki, the missing-nin from Hidden Mist Village, you've caused quite a bit of trouble..."

"!!!"

Kisame Hoshigaki suddenly gripped the hilt of Samehada, his years of experience causing his body to instinctively enter a fighting state!

The newcomer was a ninja with exceptional sensory abilities, as Kisame Hoshigaki also possessed considerable Chakra sensing capabilities.

However, they did not notice any trace of the other party's presence!

That voice...

It even came from the sky!

Kisame Hoshigaki suddenly turned around and looked up, staring intently at the figure that appeared in the sky. He saw a young ninja wearing Cloud Pattern Black Robe and Rinnegan!

Compared to the Rinnegan, Kisame was more concerned about the auspicious cloud pattern on the black robe on the other party's body. He knew that this was the uniform of the Akatsuki members. The Akatsuki had finally come looking for him!

"They're here."

Kisame felt a pang of regret that he might never have any more time to relax, but he was also relieved that he could finally begin his mission of infiltrating the Akatsuki.

I just don't know who the other person is. "I am Shirou Emiya."

Shirou Emiya calmly uttered his name.

"!!!"

Kisame couldn't help but look at the young man in front of him with some surprise!

Although Kisame Hoshigaki already knew from Obito Uchiha that Shirou Emiya the original leader of the Akatsuki, he never expected that the person who came to recruit him would be Shirou Emiya himself!

Such an important person...

They actually came all this way in person!

"I'm here to recruit you into the Akatsuki."

Shirou Emiya quite honest, casually replied, "Because you killed the Fourth Mizukage..."

My time isn't as precious anymore.

"This is truly astonishing—"

Kisame Hoshigaki's lips slowly curled into a smile.

This man, who wasn't very good with words, tried hard to find a suitable explanation to express his shock without revealing that he already knew about Shirou Emiya's existence.

"Don't be so surprised."

"You should know I exist by now."

"Perhaps you already know all the information about the Akatsuki?"

Shirou Emiya casually exposed Kisame's lie with a single sentence, showing considerable sincerity towards this Kisame Hoshigaki who was known as an honest man in his past life memories.

A bead of cold sweat slowly appeared on Kisame Hoshigaki's cheek.

"So you already knew everything all along?"

Kisame Hoshigaki gripped the hilt of his sword, his heart pounding. Only the Samehada in his hand gave him a sense of security.

This situation, where his secret was exposed, was something Kisame Hoshigaki had never imagined.

Obito Uchiha seem rather unreliable; when he sent himself to infiltrate the Akatsuki, he was unaware that they already knew his identity!

"Um.

37

Shirou Emiya nodded, unconcerned about Kisame Hoshigaki's nervousness, and casually reassured him, "Don't be nervous."

Let's discuss the terms.

"After you join Akatsuki, you don't need to treat Akatsuki as enemies on your missions. Just treat Akatsuki as a safe haven for now. I'll find you a suitable teammate to monitor the information you pass to Obito. Is that acceptable?"

"Sure."

Kisame Hoshigaki nodded slowly.

However, when Kisame Hoshigaki saw who the person responsible for monitoring him was, his expression became subtly quite interesting.

How could it be Obito Uchiha Itachi Uchiha's side?

No wonder Shirou Emiya knew about the connection between himself and Obito Uchiha all along. So it turns out that Itachi Uchiha had already joined forces with Shirou Emiya.

Shirou Emiya immediately recruited Uchiha from Obito Uchiha to become Kisame Hoshigaki's teammates, ordering Uchiha to monitor Kisame Hoshigaki, since he no longer needed to know Obito Uchiha's information.

At the same time-

Kisame also received orders from Obito Uchiha.

Coincidentally, Obito Uchiha never trusted Itachi Uchiha, believing that Itachi Uchiha was hiding other intentions. He then had Yakushi Kabuto secretly help him send a message, ordering Kisame Hoshigaki to monitor Itachi Uchiha.

The Rain Country.

The lakeside at the Akatsuki Base.

Kisame Hoshigaki carried his Samehada, while Itachi Uchiha organized his Ninja Tool Pouch. Both of them already knew that their teammate was a spy responsible for monitoring them.

This world is becoming increasingly absurd.

"Please take care of me from now on, Itachi."

Kisame Hoshigaki watched the raindrops fall from the sky, then turned to Itachi Uchiha and greeted his teammate.

"You're welcome."

Itachi Uchiha kept his head down, knowing that Kisame Hoshigaki was Obito Uchiha's men. "I was just ordered to monitor you, and you were just ordered to monitor me."

Two spies

It's impossible for them to trust each other.

Uchiha seemed to realize that his attitude was a bit cold, and in response to the olive branch extended by his future teammate, he took the initiative to give the other party a word of advice. "Compared to Emiya Tsuchihara, Obito is really not a reliable person."

Kisame Hoshigaki looked up at the gloomy sky.

He has now vaguely sensed that Obito Uchiha unreliable.

When Obito Uchiha, the Yakushi Kabuto deliver the message, he only thought that Itachi Uchiha could not be trusted, but he did not know that Itachi Uchiha had sided with Shirou Emiya.

How could someone be unaware of such a thing?

It seems that the former Mr. "Ban" knew everything.

Ever since Obito Uchiha removed the mask that symbolized "Madara," Obito Uchiha demeanor no longer seems as classy as it once was.

My online presence has become somewhat foolish.
