"Shisui!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi had also realized the key: the best way to break Impure World Reincarnation was to deal with it at its source.
Shisui's ocular technique, Kotoamatsukami, made him the best choice.
"Understood, Third Hokage!"
The emerald-green Susanoo vanished, and Shisui Uchiha broke away from the troops without hesitation.
He would find the hidden caster and break Impure World Reincarnation.
"I'll go with you." Itachi put away his blade. Shibuki pierced the chests of five enemies before returning to his hand. "There may be more than one enemy!"
"All right!" Shisui agreed after seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi nod.
"Shisui Uchiha, Uchiha Itachi," Kabuto Yakushi murmured from his hiding place.
These were names he had never heard before. Konoha had developed too quickly over the years.
After the Third Shinobi World War, geniuses had sprung up like shoots after rain. Perhaps this was Konoha's most glorious era.
Kabuto Yakushi did not care. After Orochimaru's death, he had lost his reason to live.
Or rather, Kabuto Yakushi had already lost his way back when he had been forced to become Danzo's spy for the orphanage's sake and mistakenly killed the director he respected most.
Orochimaru had given him direction, allowing him to cling to life until today.
Now that Kazan had killed Orochimaru, he was lost again. He wanted to prove the meaning of his existence through power.
In this chaotic era, there were many people like Kabuto Yakushi.
They could find no direction. They were alive, yet could find no reason to live.
Shisui and Itachi set out to find whoever was secretly controlling Impure World Reincarnation.
Meanwhile, the battle grew fiercer with the arrival of the Shichibukai and the reincarnated army.
As though fate had ordained it, Kisame Hoshigaki met his lifelong nemesis, Might Guy, here.
