Nuclear Ninja Village - Nuclear Shadow Office
Kakuhei, still dressed as Whitebeard, sat imposingly in his chair, a large sword he'd somehow acquired, looking at Uchiha Itachi and Kisame Hoshigaki: "Hehehehe, you're from the Akatsuki?"
Kisame Hoshigaki: "(°ー°) Boss, what's the point of you showing off like this? Aren't you just a clone?!"
Kakuhei: "No! I am the Nuclear Shadow of the Nuclear Ninja Village, the strongest man in the world."
Uchiha Itachi was no longer sickly; he stood upright, much stronger, and his bluish skin had returned to normal. "Boss, if you're alright, then Kisame and I can head back to Akatsuki to report."
"Boom!"
Kakuhei slammed his large sword on the ground, causing the entire office to tremble. "You thief, hehehehe, I called you here—no, I called you here because I have something to tell you."
Kisame Hoshigaki looked at Kakuhei with a strange expression. " Itachi-san, what's with this clone, boss?"
Uchiha Itachi's analytical abilities are among the best in the entire Hokage: "Our boss possesses the same Rinnegan as Pain, so I estimate that this clone is a being that shares our boss's vision and memories and has its own consciousness."
Hongshi: "Tch, my Rinnegan is the same Ten Tomoe Rinnegan Kaguya's. Pain's isn't as powerful as mine."
Kisame Hoshigaki: "There's such a technique?"
Kakuhei nodded. "Hehehe, as expected of someone whose intelligence is second only to mine, you were able to analyze the principle of Nuclear Clone in an instant. Itachi, with my help, you have awakened the Rinnegan. However, I hope you will not easily reveal it in front of others, especially the Akatsuki. As for why, you will find out later."
Hashirama Cells and the Sharingan are the two conditions for awakening the Rinnegan. Normally, it would take an extremely long time to successfully awaken the Rinnegan, but under the Hongshi's Super Creation Rebirth, it only took one hour.
After Uchiha Itachi successfully awakened his Sharingan, he finally realized that the stone tablet in his clan had indeed been tampered with.
Kisame Hoshigaki: " The Akatsuki's goal is to collect Jinchūriki, retrieve and control the Tailed Beast, and intimidate the Shinobi World to achieve peace. The Nuclear Ninja Village is full of Jinchūriki now; if they find out, it could be very dangerous."
Kakuhei: "Hehehe, your entire Akatsuki plus the Five Kage might not be a match for me alone, not to mention I have six Nuclear Clone scattered throughout the Shinobi World. While ensuring the world continues to function normally, let's make the Nuclear Ninja Village the strongest village..."
Uchiha Itachi couldn't stand it anymore. "Boss, what about Sasuke..."
Kakuhei: "Don't interrupt me! Where was I...?"
Kisame Hoshigaki: "(•͈ᴗ•͈ૢૢ) You mentioned Sasuke."
Kakuhei: "Emm, that's right, this is Sasuke's destiny. The wheel of fate has begun to turn; this is destiny, young man."
Uchiha Itachi remained silent.
The Lord God: "Big brother, with a memory like that, you shouldn't be doing Nuclear Shadow!"
Kisame Hoshigaki: "You killed so many people, you'll never forgive me, Itachi-san!"
Actually, Hongshi was just afraid of disrupting the timeline.
Kakuhei: "The matter of the Uchiha Clan is settled, there's no need to waste any more energy. You need to adapt to the power of the Rinnegan as soon as possible, since you're Itachi."
Just then, Captain Jack walked in from outside, dragging Samehada, which looked like a spiked club, in his hand. " Kisame, this is your sword, it's really not handy."
With that, he threw the Samehada at Kisame Hoshigaki.
Kisame Hoshigaki reached out and caught Samehada, he felt an immense surge of Chakra flowing within it. "This... this Chakra is even stronger than that of Tailed Beast."
With a "roar," Samehada returned to Kisame's hand and actually wrapped itself around Kisame, seemingly very sad.
The squid meat chunks used in Kakuhei research were taken from the Samehada. Although the patient recovered each time using healing Ninjutsu, the psychological trauma was indelible.
Kisame Hoshigaki: "Even Samehada is groaning. Boss, you really are a pervert."
Kakuhei chuckled, "After you two return to Akatsuki, continue with your previous identities. I'll inform you of other matters later. Oh, and in three months, you'll go to the Land of Lightning to meet up with the Yuhan Ninjutsu Team."
Uchiha Itachi and his companion didn't linger and turned to leave.
Kisame Hoshigaki, carrying his Samehada, stared at Captain Jack: "Demon, let's have a fight sometime."
Captain Jack, now Nuclear Jinchūriki of the Nascent Soul faction, possesses Kage Level strength and is naturally not afraid of Kisame Hoshigaki: "Hmph, I call myself Jack Sparrow, and I'm a man destined to become the Pirate King. Zabuza Momochi is already dead."
Lord God: "Big brother, has your brainwashing been that thorough?!"
Kisame Hoshigaki was silent for a moment, then asked, "... Who is the Pirate King?"
Women Town
No sooner had Naruto and Jiraiya left than Hongshi and Hinata Hyuga arrived at the scene.
Hinata looked at the Women Town dressed in pink. "Red... Hongshi-kun! Naruto-kun, how could you come to a place like this?"
Looking at the scantily clad women, Hongshi said seriously, " Hinata, you should know that bars, casinos, and brothels are the best places to gather information."
Hinata: "But... but, aren't these the three forbidden rules for ninjas?"
Hongshi shook his head. "Ninjas who constantly walk the line between life and death don't care about the three prohibitions. Only an extremely self-disciplined ninja like me can resist temptation."
A voluptuous, heavily made-up woman walked past Hongshi and, seeing his physique, Hongshi, "Wow, what a strong man! Would you like to come to my shop for a drink?"
Hongshi: "(≖_≖), No, I'm a ninja without emotions."
Woman: "Tch, how boring."
Hongshi: "→_→, Hinata, even the best ninjas are constantly tempted, →_→, please always uphold your ninja way. →_→."
Hinata: "I understand the logic, but why are you staring at that woman's butt?"
Hongshi: "Wow, she's huge... Oh no, I think she's very suspicious. A ninja's job is to resolve problems as soon as they're discovered, in order to minimize losses."
A scantily clad bunny girl slowly walked by, her snow-white thighs almost completely exposed. Touching Hongshi's muscular biceps, she said, "Such strong muscles, sir. Come on, let me introduce you to some of my sisters. Tell us how you built them."
Hongshi: "(°ー°), No, I I I I I refuse, gurgle, I am a ninja without feelings."
"Tonight, a striptease extravaganza will be staged in Women Town, featuring a beautiful team of girls from the Land of Wind and a girl team from the Land of Earth. Drinks will be half price! Guests, please hurry and enter, or you'll miss out on seats!"
Hongshi: "Striptease... that's great."
Hinata: "What did you say, Hongshi-kun?"
Hongshi patted Hinata on the shoulder, his eyes filled with determination. "I sensed an ominous aura in this town. For the safety of the people, I must go in and gather intelligence immediately."
Hinata: " Hongshi-kun, you're bleeding from your nose."
Hongshi: "It's nothing, just a bit of internal heat, this is one way to detoxify."
Hinata: "(≖_≖) You want to enter the adult world, don't you?"
Hongshi: "Hahahaha, how could that be? I'm only fourteen years old. Everything I've done is for the Shinobi World."
Hinata: "Then I'll go find Naruto-kun myself."
Hongshi grabbed Hinata's hand. "It's too dangerous here, we can't stay here, we have to go after Naruto right away!"
