Why did you open your shop here?
Kimimaro squatted down and looked at the flower.
He had seen this flower by chance before, never expecting that it would still be blooming here even after the house collapsed.
Why won't you answer me? Are you ignoring me too?
Kimimaro produced a bone dagger.
He didn't understand.
Why does everyone want to stay away from him?
Why does this flower bloom here again?
What's the point?
Just like himself, what is the meaning?
Flowers blooming on ruins, unnoticed by anyone, will likely be trampled to death during the reconstruction process.
"Why do this?"
Kiyoshi's figure appeared behind Kimimaro without anyone noticing.
Kaguya's clan generally has black hair, green eyes, red eyeshadow on her eyelids, and two red dots on her eyebrows.
Kimimaro was different from ordinary people; his hair was naturally white.
Therefore, Kiyoshi recognized Kimimaro at a glance.
No one else has such a distinctive appearance except him.
There is no such thing as the meaning of living.
Qingsi spoke lightly.
He recited Orochimaru's classic opening line.
This is the very phrase Orochimaru used to trick Kimimaro, which Kiyoshi is now using.
"But living might lead to interesting things, just like you found that flower, and just like I found you."
Kiyoshi patted Kimimaro's head and took out a small bottle from behind his back.
"Judging from your complexion, you should have bloodline disease."
Kiyoshi took out Konoha's special medicine.
Although hematopoietic stem cell disease is currently incurable, he hasn't done much research on it.
However, Konoha's advanced and comprehensive medical system is fully capable of alleviating the symptoms of this disease.
The only drawback is its high price.
At least in Konoha, you can still buy it if you have money, but in Kirigakure, you can't buy it even if you have money.
In the entire ninja world, only Konoha's medical system is far ahead, while the rest lag far behind.
Kirigakure was not the kind of ninja village that was good at development; it spent most of its time fighting amongst itself.
This is the downside of "Village of Blood Mist": if you don't kill others, they will kill you.
"medicine?"
Kimimaro raised his head in a daze, as if trying to see Kiyoshi's face clearly.
"If you encounter any problems in the future, go to Ringo Ameyuri. He has medicine too."
Qingsi smiled slightly.
Kimimaro was a perfectly competent subordinate.
Loyalty, strength.
If he hadn't died young, and had accumulated a few more years of experience, allowing his chakra to reach its physical peak, he probably would have had a place in the Fourth Shinobi World War.
"It's really rare to see you like this."
Ringo Amori walked over, looking at Kiyoshi's behavior with great curiosity.
This guy actually has such a kind heart?
Or did he develop some interest in the Kaguya clan's "Shikotsumyaku" (Corpse Bone Pulse)?
"It's nothing to offer a little help to a confused child."
Kiyoshi shook his head.
If we wait a few more years, the Kaguya clan will bring about their own destruction and go on to challenge Kirigakure.
He could then use some means to bring Kimimaro back to Konoha; it would be a great pity for such a henchman to die.
In terms of raw power, Kimimaro surpasses Guren.
Ringo Yuri practically had her disbelief written all over her face.
Is Uchiha Kiyoshi that kind of person?
Why didn't she know?
"Forget it, when will you sell those ninja swords back?"
Yuri Ringo asked.
"As long as Kirigakure comes up with the price I mentioned a few days ago, I will sell it to you."
Qingsi said.
A few days ago, in addition to discussing trade, they also talked about the issue of the six ninja swords.
Kiyoshi had already removed some of the materials from these six ninja swords beforehand, so it wouldn't matter if he sold them back.
If we ever run out of money, we'll figure out a way to get it back.
Anyway, supply and demand will always exist. The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are the signature of Kirigakure, not Konoha.
Kiyoshi did not linger and quickly went to other areas to use the "Wood" Release technique.
Kimimaro clutched the small medicine bottle in his hand, staring at Kiyoshi's retreating figure.
This was the first time since he was born that someone had shown him such kindness.
"That sir is truly a very gentle sir."
Little Kimimaro thought to himself.
Kimimaro still couldn't figure out the meaning of life.
But he found that living like this wasn't so bad.
"I will definitely see you again."
Kimimaro thought so.
……
The next day.
The Land of Rain, New Dawn Base.
"These materials..."
Beiliuhu's eyes burned with passion.
These artificial humans called White Zetsu are truly amazing, giving him a lot of inspiration for the "Oni-Garra Technique".
These White Zetsu, which incorporate a large number of "Hashirama cells," can actually be considered members of the Senju clan and are classified under bloodline limits.
His final bloodline limit doesn't necessarily have to be balanced by the Sharingan.
White Zetsu... is also an option.
"Wait for me, Konoha, Uchiha Kiyoshi."
Beiruhu clenched his fists.
After becoming a rogue ninja, he went into hiding and eventually joined the New Akatsuki organization.
The man named Uchiha Madara immediately recognized that he had been under a genjutsu and dispelled it for him.
Upon hearing this, Hiruko also remembered that Kiyoshi had used illusion magic to interrogate him about the information on his experiments and the "Oni-Garra Technique".
"Um……"
Suddenly, Hiruko sensed a surge of chakra behind him.
When he turned around, it was Obito wearing a mask.
"spot."
"I humbly cry out."
"How's your research on forbidden techniques going?"
Obito's voice was hoarse.
Perhaps because he had already fused with many "Hashiro cells" before, there was nothing unusual about the fact that he now had half of "Hashiro cells" attached to his limbs.
Instead, his chakra reserves and eye power both increased dramatically.
Unfortunately, this is not enough; it is far from sufficient to deal with Kiyoshi.
Obito needs to be stronger, with more power.
Hiruko's forbidden technique gave Obito an idea.
Kiyoshi is so strong, perhaps because he has developed too many bloodline limits.
It just so happens that Hiruko's "Oni-Garara Technique" can transplant five bloodline limits.
Once he gets his hands on these bloodline limits, he'll figure out a way to get Kiyoshi into the "Limited Tsukuyomi".
He will take everything from Kiyoshi in the "Limited Tsukuyomi," including his Sharingan.
"We're making progress; we'll have some preliminary results soon."
Hiruko looked at Obito with apprehension.
If he hadn't been afraid of Madara Uchiha's Sharingan using genjutsu, he would never have handed over the forbidden technique he had painstakingly researched.
However, just as he could fall for Kiyoshi's genjutsu, he could also fall for Uchiha Madara's genjutsu.
"very good."
Obito nodded in satisfaction.
……
"You go along this sea route to the Sea Kingdom, I'll be right back."
At this moment, on a ship overseas, Kiyoshi spoke to Kakashi and the others.
He intends to teleport directly from the outer seas of the Land of Water to the interior of Konoha.
"Yes."
The moonlight and the swift wind nodded in agreement.
The Hokage wanted to find some kind of Summoning Island, an island he had never heard of before.
"Kakashi, after I leave, you will be the captain."
Seiji patted Kakashi's shoulder.
Among Kakashi, Yugao Uzuki, and Hayate Gekko, Kakashi is undoubtedly the strongest.
Even with the Sharingan hindering him, Kakashi is now at least at the level of an elite Jonin.
The man he is now is not the same man who was decadent for several years in the first season.
He had just withdrawn from the front lines of the war and was now active in the shadows.
"I see."
Kakashi nodded.
Upon seeing this, Kiyoshi's figure vanished in an instant.
