Konoha: Who says that hunters can't play in the ninja world?

"I've heard of the bloody mist of the Hidden Mist Village and the cruelty of the Ninja Road. I think you know it better than me. Our group of people should be one of the life experiences for the growth of you so-called geniuses. But, fate cannot be predicted. It always leaves people with a little chance of survival. I seized it and worked hard to gain a little possibility of growth. Of course, compared with you geniuses, I may never grow to your level in my entire life. But compared to becoming a passerby in a certain mission, I still hope that I will shoulder my own destiny. Even if the hope is slim." Nobuko's words were nagging and illogical, like flies, constantly harassing Kisame's already cold heart.

"Water Style. Water Clone Technique." The Genin not far away, no, to be more precise, the students who have obtained the qualification of ninja, are tirelessly showing their pitiful efforts. Water Clone Technique is one of the simplest physical clones among the attribute clones, and one of the best ninjutsu of Nobuko and Kazama. These students are indeed stumbling when learning it. The things that are separated are either not in human form or out of control. Just like the funny performance art.

But Nobuko didn't laugh, Fengjian didn't laugh, and the students around him didn't laugh. If you're not good at it, practice more. This is the only advice Fengjian gave. Nobuko's company not far away is the strongest motivation for this group of students. If it doesn't work once, then try twice, ten times, a hundred times, and it will work.

"Water Style. Water Ball Technique." The simplest water style with shape-changing features developed by Nobuko, and it is also one of the must-learn ninjutsu for these children.

"Their talents may be poor, their efforts may be ridiculous, but no one can laugh at their desire to become stronger. What do you think, Mr. Kisame?" Kisame and Nobuko, just like this, one was forced to listen, the other chattered, like good friends.

After a few days, even with his eyes closed, Kisame could already distinguish the names of the children who were learning Water Style. The one who learned Water Style the best was Akazawa, the one with the best temper was Katsuro, and he could tell almost every other student's progress in learning Water Style just by listening.

"Mr. Kisame, are you still not going to talk today?" After spending several days with Kisame, the big man remained silent. Except for occasionally changing his posture, he didn't even open his eyes.

"Mr. Kisame, you should know that there is no intention to kill you. Even your Uchiha companion was only seriously injured, not killed. Even so, Mr. Kisame is unwilling to communicate?" A few days passed, and Nobuko's task of guarding Kisame was not completed smoothly. It seemed that Kisame did not escape, but Kisame's attitude was still tough and he had no intention of speaking.

"Hehe, I finally couldn't help it. I thought you would continue to let that girl say some high-sounding words to try to influence me? I can only say that you underestimated me." Kisame sneered. In his opinion, Kazama's methods were childish and ridiculous. Which grown-up ninja didn't come from a sea of ​​blood and corpses, and his mind was hardened like iron. With this little trick, he couldn't even stir up a wave of emotions.

"I've said before, I never had any intention of killing Mr. Kisame. As for keeping Mr. Kisame, I do have a purpose. We can talk straight to the point. Is Mr. Kisame interested?" Kazama made an invitation.

The iron-blue skin and shark-like face made Kisame look extremely ferocious: "Of course I'm interested. I want to see what the dignified Konoha Village wants from a traitor like me?"

Seeing Kisame talking to him, Kazama finally put aside some of his worries. What he was afraid of was that Kisame would be uncooperative, ignore him, not resist, and look like he was ready to do whatever he wanted. That would be really useless.

"The purpose is very simple. We in Konoha want to win over a Kage-level warrior like you to join us." Straight to the point, the best way to deal with such a powerful and experienced warrior is to tell the truth. Deception will always be exposed one day. If you want to establish the most basic trust, you must at least give a little trust first. As for whether this trust is worth it, you have to consider it yourself.

As for Kisame's character, Kazama wanted to take a gamble. Compared to Uchiha Itachi's stubbornness and extremism, Kisame's personality was relatively pure, so he had a greater chance of winning.

"The Land of Fire is the most powerful of the five major ninja nations, and Konoha Village is also the most powerful of the five ninja villages. I really can't think of why Konoha needs the services of a rebel ninja like me from the Hidden Mist. If you want to find a reason, please find a reliable one." Kisame didn't believe what Kazama said at all.

"Okay, let me put it another way. Mr. Kisame's organization has gathered several S-rank rebel ninjas. With such a powerful force, if they besiege the Hidden Mist Village, what are the chances of the Hidden Mist Village winning?" Since you don't believe it, I'll tell you the most real facts.

"......" Kisame didn't expect that Kazama would turn around and say something that made Kisame extremely concerned. He had no feelings for Kirigakure? What a joke. That was where he was born and where he grew up. He defected from that place, but that was because of some people, not because he hated the Land of Water and Kirigakure. Comparing his own organization with Kirigakure, Kisame discovered a terrible reality, that is, in the entire Kirigakure, there was not a single strong person who could fight against the strong in the organization. In other words, if the organization really wanted to destroy Kirigakure, the possibility of success was quite high.

As soon as this fact came out, Kisame found his heart trembling slightly.

"How is it? Is there any result? Similarly, comparing Konoha Village and Akatsuki, Konoha Village has a better chance of winning. This is just the combat power shown by Akatsuki. The dark forces hidden deeper are even more unpredictable. It is precisely because of this crisis that Konoha is sure to let Mr. Kisame join."

"Why choose me?" This was Kisame's second question.

"Because Mr. Kisame is quite pure, in this age where ninjas are constantly breaking bottom lines and doing whatever they want, Mr. Kisame is still practicing the ninja rules. Although it seems that Kisame's voice seems a bit out of place and inhuman, this just shows that Mr. Kisame has something he insists on." Everyone likes to hear good words, so let's praise him first.

"Having a bottom line means that Mr. Kisame is not an unforgivable person. Being powerful means that Mr. Kisame has enough value to be used. Isn't that enough? For Konoha, it is obviously much better to take in a strong man with a bottom line than a villain without principles. Konoha also has to save face."

"You are not interested in the information I have?" Kisame's mood was turbulent today, more than ever since he was captured. His rock-hard defenses quietly opened a crack.

"First of all, it depends on your personal wishes. Since we have chosen to accept you, we should respect your choice. If you don't want to, we won't ask for any information from you unless you are willing to tell us yourself. Otherwise, we will just treat you as a tool to be used, which is very detrimental to the establishment of trust between the two parties."
