Ninja World: I’m Not a Human Being!

Chapter 20: 20

"Mei!"

Ringo Ameyuri climbed up from the ground with difficulty and rushed to Terumi Mei's side. The two of them looked at the woods together, in surprise.

'They didn't have to wait for long.'

In the depths of the woods, there was an explosion first, accompanied by fire and trees falling, followed by flashes of lightning, until finally

With a thud.

Iron's Fuma shuriken flew out, covered with blood, and stuck on the trunk of a big tree.

In the woods, calm was restored.

'What exactly happened?'

Terumi Mei and Ringo Ameyuri were stunned until they saw a familiar figure slowly walk out of the woods.

'It's Kisame.'

His expression was calm, his body was covered in the blood of the enemy, and he held the corpses of Steel and Iron in his left and right hands, and walked in front of the two.

"Kisame, you..."

Terumi Mei was so shocked that she even forgot the pain, Ringo also opened her mouth wide, her face full of disbelief.

One genin had single-handedly killed two Jonin who are worth 30 million ryo, no one would believe such a thing.

'Did Kisame hide himself so deeply?'

'Thud.'

Kisame threw the Steel and Iron duo's corpse aside, then squatted down and checked Terumi Mei's wound.

"The penetrating injury looks scary, but you are lucky, it didn't hurt vital organs such as the spleen and liver, I should be able to save your life."

He said this, first disinfecting Terumi Mei's wound, and then shooting a chakra line from his fingertips.

'Swish swish.'

As the right index finger of Kisame danced in the air, the chakra thread wandered back and forth in Terumi Mei's abdomen like a butterfly, and quickly sutured her wound.

The blood stopped.

There was a footstep behind him, and it was Sakura who came over.

"Saved, you saved me..."

She was so excited that she muttered to herself, her eyes were full of tears, as she did not expect that the two powerful Kumogakure Jonin to be defeated by Kisame.

But at this moment, Kisame suddenly stood up and put the ninja sword on Sakura's neck.

"Kisame-dono, I... I really didn't have the money to issue high-level commissioned mission, so I lied to you. Moreover, I also underestimated the strength of the enemy, but..."

Sakura's eyes darkened, but as she spoke, her eyes suddenly became firm.

"But I really have no choice!

I did this to protect the villagers of Snow Village! If this is my destiny, even if I die... I will die with no regrets. "

She showed a miserable smile, raised her white neck, closed her eyes and waited for death.

Two lines of tears flowed from the corners of Sakura's eyes, and silently fell on the snow along her cheeks.

After listening to her confession, Kisame was silent for a moment, then suddenly showed two rows of sharp teeth, showing a smile.

"I understand what you mean."

He removed the ninja sword from Sakura's neck.

"Kisame-dono..."

Sakura opened her eyes and couldn't help but be very moved. After so many days of getting along, the man in front of her can finally understand her bitterness and pain.

But in the next second, a sharp knife light flashed in Sakura's eyes.

'Thump.'

She fell down in front of Kisame.

Before dying, Sakura raised her head with difficulty and looked at Kisame.

"I gave you at least two chances to confess, and that was a chance for your life. However, you always took luck, and in the name of kindness and simplicity, deceived the trust of my companions and let this team get involved. Because of your selfishness, my companion was seriously injured and almost lost her life."

Kisame looked down at Sakura lying at his feet, and slowly said to her, "This is your way to die."

....

Sakura of Snow Village reminded Kisame of a person.

Tazuna, a bridge builder in the Land of Waves.

In the anime, he is a diligent, kind, responsible and righteous man who bravely fought against the forces of darkness in order to save the Land of Waves.

There are similarities between these two who wants to save the village.

However, as a ninja, Kisame hates such an employer very much.

Because Tazuna deliberately concealed the real situation when he issued the commission to save money, and as a result, the fledgling team seven encountered the combination of Zabuza and Haku.

An S-rank missing ninja and an Yuki clan ninja with Ice release.

C-level missions became an S-level mission.

If it weren't for the protagonist halo, team seven would definitely be wiped out, and Tazuna and the Land of Waves would not escape bad luck.

People like Tazuna and Sakura.

In the name of exercising justice, have peace of mind to deceive people and send them to death. How different are they from those villains?

With such an employer, Kisame will never be soft-hearted when he kills them.

Sakura, who fell to the ground, was surprised and puzzled, her eyes gradually lost focus, and soon lost her breath.

When Kisame raised the ninja sword and killed Sakura, both Terumi Mei and Ringo Ameyuri who are resting on the side remained silent.

Although they have become good friends with Sakura after getting along these days, the latter is really 'good'.

In this battle, if it wasn't for the astonishing strength of Kisame, and him killing two Jnin in a row, this three person team would probably have died without a whole corpse.

The culprit behind all this is Sakura.

In any case, with the death of the employer, the mission came to an end.

Terumi Mei stood up with Ameyuri's help. She was seriously injured and needed to return to Kirigakure for careful treatment and long-term recuperation.

kisame took out the storage scroll, and after the seal was performed, the corpses of the Steel and Iron duo were put in.

Although this mission failed and they didn't get paid, there was this bigger windfall.

As long as the corpses of these two people are transported to the underground gold exchange, they can be exchanged for a high bounty of 30 million ryo, which is an astronomical sum of money for Kisame who has not been very rich.

The group of three was about to leave.

'Click.'

In the woods behind him, there was a sudden slight crunch, which sounded like the sound of a branch being stepped on.

'Another enemy?'

Kisame frowned and rushed over with a swoosh. Sure enough, he found a figure with long black hair, hurriedly fleeing toward the depths of the woods.

He chased after her.

The distance between the two is getting closer.

Suddenly, the woman's hands formed seals, and the moisture in the air quickly condensed in front of him, forming a few crystal clear ice cones.

'Shhhhhh.'

With a wave of her hand, several ice picks attacked Kisame and blocked him.

'This is... Ice release?'

Kisame's eyes widened, and after dodging the sharp icicles, he did not continue to pursue, but watched the woman escape and disappeared into a small village at the foot of the mountain.

It's Snow Village.

"Ice release Kekkei Genkai, Snow Village..."

Kisame frowned and muttered to himself, as a memory in the back of his mind emerged, as if he had guessed something.

Instead of rushing into Snow Village, he turned around and returned to his two companions.

"Kisame, who is that person?"

Seeing that Kisame came back safely, Ameyuri breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked curiously.

"An unidentified ninja who should have been attracted by the sound of fighting when we were fighting the enemy. However, she had no intention of fighting me and had already escaped."

While talking, Kisame dug a large snow pit and buried the bodies of Sakura and the villagers in it.

Then, he walked up to Terumi Mei and knelt down on one knee with his back to her.

"Come."

He only said one word, but Terumi Mei understood it, and when she lay down on the broad back muscles of Kisame, she stretched out her hands and gently wrapped her arms around his neck.

Kisame carried Terumi Mei on his back and brought Ameyuri with him, and the three of them returned along the same path.

Two days later.

A group of three walked out of the mountain and came to a safe town, where they encountered a large caravan that was about to set off for Kirigakure.

Kisame asked the two companions to hitch a ride with the caravan, and told Ameyuri to take care of Terumi Mei along the way, and then he went deep into the mountain again and went straight to the Snow Village.

Another day passed.

Kisame returned to the familiar forest, dug out the bodies of Sakura and others from the snow pit, tied them with chakra strings, and carried them over the mountains.

He swaggered into the Snow Village.

Soon, Kisame was warmly welcomed by the villagers.

Facing this uninvited guest, they took up sickles, hoes, and hunting bows and surrounded him.

'Thud!'

Kisame threw the corpses of Sakura and others on the ground, and then flicked the finger, the chakra wire was launched from the fingertips, and after a running circle around the field, it easily seized everyone's weapons.

"I'm a ninja from Kirigakure, and was entrusted by the Snow Village Caravan to bring them back to the village. But Sakura deliberately concealed the mission details and killed my teammates. Before I got the mission reward and the funeral expenses of my teammates, I won't leave."

He looked around, briefly explained his purpose, and then walked into the village chief's house in a grand manner.

Leaving a group of villagers looking at each other in dismay.

After a while, they recognized the reality of situation, and each stepped forward to claim the remains of their relatives and bring them back for burial.

The next day.

Kisame summoned several representatives of the villagers of Snow Village, and asked them about some things in the village on the condition that the mission remuneration and funeral expenses were exempted.

Soon he found the information he wanted.

He already knew who was hiding in the Snow Village was.

Two years ago, a woman from the outer village named Snow Maiden married into Snow Village. Last month, on January 9, she gave birth to a boy.

At this point, Kisame basically determined that the boy who just had a full moon is Haku.

This mother and son are members of the Yuki clan.

This clan used to be the famous clan in Kirigakure, but it was liquidated in the civil strife in the Blood Mist, and all the clan members died, leaving only the last survivor, Yukino.

She hid in the Snow Village, hid her abilities, lived an ordinary life, and married a villager to start a family and gave birth to Haku.

It seems that the life of Yukino and her family is very happy.

But Kisame, who is familiar with the anime, knows that this is just an illusion.

Because the Land of Water is always in civil strife, many ninjas and people who have the limit of blood often join the fight, causing a lot of killing and death.

So, for civilians, ninjas are synonymous with war and disaster.
