"Isn't this Kisame? Shouldn't you be in the prison? How did you end up here?" Genji was about to leave when he happened to see Kisame and questioned him.
Kisame was about to say something, Shiyu stopped him.
"Genji, I rescued Kisame. Since she's a prisoner here, she might become a jewel in my possession." Shiyu's meaning was clear: she wanted to steal Kisame.
"Since it is the Light of the Shinobi World who demands this person, so be it." Genji didn't have time to dwell on this matter with Shiyu, so he simply waved his hand to indicate his agreement.
"In that case, Acting Mizukage, I hope the three of us can go to the battlefield together. We'd like to have a go at Yagura's hands," Shiyu said.
"What? You want to fight Yagura!?" Genji was also very surprised.
"Thank you so much, Lord Shiyu, the Light of the Shinobi World!" Genji knew Shiyu's strength; he had single-handedly annihilated the entire Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. Even the powerful Yagura would likely be no match for Shiyu. Now that Shiyu was willing to help his side, their chances of victory had naturally increased even further.
Shiyu gave Kisame and Orochimaru a wink, and neither of them were stupid; they immediately understood what Shiyu meant.
The three of them went into battle together, immediately following the Kirigakure Ninja as they rushed towards the direction where Yagura's forces had been discovered.
As soon as they left the village, on a flat area, the Kirigakure rebels and Kirigakure troops were already engaged in battle, and a green-haired ninja was invincible among the crowd.
The green-haired ninja has purple pupils, a scar resembling a stitch below his left eye, and wields a club-like weapon with a hook at the end decorated with green flowers.
Although he has a baby face, it's obvious that he's not young anymore; he's probably around twenty years old.
"That's right, this person is Karatachi Yagura." Shiyu confirmed Yagura's identity, they were immediately surrounded by a group of Kirigakure missing-nin from Kirigakure.
"What should we do, Lord Shiyu?" Kisame asked.
"I have to make sure I don't get hurt no matter what," Orochimaru explained.
"Orochimaru is right. First, protect yourself; second, defeat the enemy. I'll take charge of the strongest, Yagura." After giving the order, Shigure disappeared from the spot. Shiyu he reappeared, he was already in front of Yagura.
Yagura was just swinging his weapon to defend against the Kirigakure ninja when Shiyu suddenly appeared.
"Shinra Tensei!" Without saying a word, Shiyu unleashed Shinra Tensei, the powerful repulsive force instantly sending Yagura and the Kirigakure Ninja flying. Because he could control the power of Shinra Tensei, no one was injured; he simply separated the others from Yagura.
"Yagura, I am your opponent," Shiyu said.
"Who are you? I don't kill nameless people." Yagura said calmly. Without the Third Mizukage, his strength was definitely among the top three in Kirigakure.
"If you hear my name, I'm afraid you won't dare to fight me, Yagura." Shiyu then quickly launched a slashing attack at Yagura managed to block it with some difficulty.
"Not bad, this guy's reaction time is pretty good," Shiyu thought to herself in admiration.
However, Yagura himself was utterly shocked.
"Who is this guy? He just casually slashed twice, and I had to exert so much effort to defend myself?! When did Kirigakure get such a powerful ninja?!" Yagura thought in surprise.
"Tell me your name! No matter who you are, I will fight you!" Yagura urged, his interest in Shiyu's name growing stronger.
"My name is Uchiha Shigure," Shiyu said.
Uchiha Shigure Yagura read the name aloud. Although it sounded familiar, he couldn't quite place who it was.
Yagura then revealed a shocked expression.
"No way? Impossible! Uchiha Shigure? The Light of the Shinobi World? Wasn't it said that you were dead? How could you be here!?" Yagura was also very incredulous. Because of Shiyu's defection, Konoha had announced a false message: that Shiyu had died in Konoha due to severe injuries.
"Do you believe that kind of news? I'm the one who defeated the Third Mizukage, how could I die so easily?" Shiyu said.
"You... you've met the Third Mizukage? You've met my master?" Yagura asked immediately.
"Of course, before he died, he asked me to test your strength. Yagura, you mustn't betray the trust your ancestors placed in you," Shiyu said.
"Of course I won't dishonor you!" Yagura then attacked Shiyu with his hook, to Shiyu replied, "An attack of this magnitude has no effect on me whatsoever."
Immediately afterward Shiyu grabbed Yagura's hook and with a gentle swing, flung Yagura away.
"He's incredibly strong! I can't fight him head-on!" Yagura immediately drew a circle with his hook, which naturally blocked Shiyu.
"Watch me smash this mirror with one punch!" Shiyu Yu dashed to the mirror, but at the same time, another Shiyu appeared in the mirror.
At that Shiyu and Shiyu started fighting without saying a word.
"Such powerful strength? Is this a copy of me exactly like before? Is this the legendary Water Mirror Technique? This is really troublesome!" Shiyu was entangled by her own clone, feeling extremely frustrated.
"In that case, then! Wood Release: Advent of the World of Trees!" Shiyu clasped his hands together, and countless trees immediately sprouted from the surrounding earth, forming a massive forest. Mirror Shiyu also summoned countless trees in the same way.
Both sides' Ninjutsu were incredibly powerful! The branches collided and intertwined, creating a magnificent spectacle, like a battle between gods. The Kirigakure Ninja fighting nearby also stopped their own battles to carefully observe the fight on Shiyu's side.
"This is terrifying! Is this the power of the Light of the Shinobi World? Even if all of us combined, we still wouldn't be a match for him!"
"No way!? Could the Light of the Shinobi World be using the Wood Release that only the First Hokage knew!?"
"How is that possible! Isn't that Hashirama Senju's signature move?! How can the Light of the Shinobi World know it too?! That's a bit of an exaggeration!"
"Even if you know my Wood Release, and even if the power is the same, you still won't possess my Yang Release Chakra. Imposter, you can die now." Shiyu then suddenly opened his hand, and a black Truth- Truth-Seeking Orb pierced through the mirror image of Shiyu at an extremely fast speed.
Mirror Shiyu disappeared immediately after being pierced by the Truth-Seeking Orb.
After Shiyu the Truth-Seeking Orb, Shigure glanced at everyone and said, "What?? Why aren't you all fighting? Why are you looking at me?"
"We are no longer able to fight." After Shiyu displayed his godlike strength, the Kirigakure rebels had no will to fight back.
