Naruto: The Strongest Sage.

"You don't agree?"

A trace of disbelief flashed across Kisame's face. He was actually a bit naive on some issues. It was as if he thought that any strong person should agree with his idea.

"Death is indeed the end of everyone. But I think it's a bit too much to regard it as the fate of a ninja. After all, in my heart, a living ninja is always more useful than a dead ninja."

"Haha, I see. You want me to work for you? But I'm sorry, Kamikawa Aoba, I admire your strength. But I won't work for you. To be exact, I won't work for the five major ninja villages anymore."

"No, not working for me. But for... Never mind, come with me."

Aoba said as he lifted the seal on Hoshigaki Kisame and released him.

Kisame looked incredulous. For a moment, he subconsciously wanted to take action.

But think about it, this is Konoha's prison, and even if there are no other people, he probably won't be able to defeat Kamikawa Aoba.

Of course, the most important thing was that he was curious about what Kamikawa Aoba wanted him to see.

Following Kamikawa Aoba out of the prison, Kisame was soon stunned by the scene outside. Because when he was captured, he was in a coma. He was sent directly to the prison when he entered Konoha. Therefore, he had never really seen the current Konoha.

The last time he came to Konoha, he came back with Uchiha Itachi. At that time, Konoha was completely different from what he had seen in his early years.

In his early years, he participated in the Joint Chunin Exam and came to Konoha. At that time, Konoha was actually similar to Kirigakure.

It’s a bit more prosperous than Kirigakure, but overall it’s just so-so.

When I came with Uchiha Itachi two years ago, Konoha was already on the verge of leaving Kirigakure behind.

But now, the two are completely incomparable.

The clean and tidy streets were filled with dense pedestrians. Most of these people were not ninjas. But they were free and happy in Konoha.

There were many ninjas mixed in there, but there was no barrier between them. The most important point was that Kisame had not seen many residential areas since he came out.

All he could see were shops of all kinds, and tall, unknown buildings. The level of commercial prosperity was beyond his imagination.

Kisame himself is not the kind of person who believes in ninja supremacy. He rebelled against Kirigakure largely because the life of Kirigakure, whether ninja or civilians, was too hard.

There was no hope at all in the whole village.

Kisame wanted to change all this, but he was powerless in the end, so he defected.

Later, he saw that the entire ninja world was the same, so he joined Akatsuki. Although in the plot, Kisame always looks like Uchiha Itachi's younger brother.

But in fact, Kisame's position in Akatsuki is actually higher than Uchiha Itachi. At least Konan and Nagato trust Kisame more than Itachi.

Letting him team up with Itachi was also meant to monitor Itachi. Itachi's ninja talent was really strong. Kisame admired him very much, so he called him Mr. Itachi.

At the same time, Kisame is also one of the few people in the Akatsuki organization who knows the entire Moon Eye Plan. He approved of this plan because he believed that the ninja world was beyond salvation.

But now, everything in front of him made Kisame a little overwhelmed. Because in a sense, Konoha had already fulfilled his wish.

At least on the surface. Everyone in Konoha is happy and content. The village is prosperous and stable, and the people are rich and happy. Isn't this what he wants to achieve?
