Chapter 962 Tao

"Since the organization knows my past, they must also know my strength. I joined Akatsuki not for fun." Kisame clenched Samehada, his eyes became sharp. Black Zetsu shook his body gently and let out a low laugh: "Kisame, we naturally know your strength, so we are so eager for you to join. Akatsuki has a lofty goal, and your strength can become a key link in it." Kisame frowned slightly, and Samehada seemed to sense the master's doubts and trembled slightly. "Humph, what is your so-called goal? If it's some petty theft, don't mention it again." Black Zetsu stopped laughing and said slowly: "There are constant fights between ninja villages in this world, and war will only bring more hatred and death. Our goal is to break this chaotic pattern and establish a new order." Kisame's heart moved, this statement is somewhat fresh. But he was still alert: "It sounds good, but why do I believe you have this ability?" Black Zetsu exuded a mysterious aura: "There are many strong people in the Akatsuki organization, and everyone has unique abilities. Everyone is working towards the same direction, and now it has begun to show results. If you join, you can not only find new goals, but also realize your own value." Kisame was silent for a moment and said, "Give me some time to think about it." Seeing this, Black Zetsu smiled and said, "Okay, I hope you can make a decision as soon as possible." After that, he disappeared, leaving Kisame alone to think. Laughter, "We naturally know that Samehada chose you, which proves that you are unique. However, there are also undercurrents in this organization, and you have to be careful to deal with other people." Kisame snorted coldly, "As long as it doesn't interfere with my work, I won't care about those trivial matters. But if someone tries to plot against me, hum!" At this moment, a figure slowly walked over from a distance, with red hair fluttering in the wind. It was Scorpion of the Red Sand. He glanced at Kisame and Black Zetsu and said sarcastically, "Are you recruiting a newcomer again? I hope this guy isn't as fragile as those trash before." Kisame frowned and was about to get angry, but Black Zetsu stood in the middle and said softly, "We are all companions and we have common goals to accomplish in the future. Don't argue." Scorpion sneered, turned and left. Kisame looked at his back, secretly wary of this dangerous guy.

Kisame turned to look at Black Zetsu, "Is he always so arrogant?" Black Zetsu sighed helplessly, "Scorpion has a perverse personality, and he thinks his puppetry is unparalleled in the world, so it's inevitable that he is a little conceited. But you don't have to worry too much, there are still sensible people in the organization." Kisame nodded slightly and followed Black Zetsu into the base.

As soon as he entered the hall, he saw Deidara fiddling with clay bombs, and Hidan next to him was still mumbling the doctrines of the evil god cult. Seeing Kisame coming in, Deidara's eyes lit up, "Hey, newcomer, I heard you have Samehada, that's an interesting weapon." Kisame just responded lightly. And Hidan came over excitedly, "Hey, you look very strong, do you want to believe in my evil god?" Kisame pushed him away with an annoyed look on his face.

At this time, Pein slowly descended from the second floor, and a powerful aura instantly filled the entire hall. Everyone fell silent. After Pein glanced around, he said in a cold voice: "New member Kisame has joined. Everyone should do their job and don't make trouble. We still have a long way to go to reach our goal." Kisame felt the pressure from Pein, and although Kisame was a little afraid of Pein's pressure in his heart, he remained calm on his face. Pein's eyes fell on Kisame, "Kisame, welcome to join the Akatsuki organization. Remember, betrayal is not allowed here." Kisame replied: "I understand."

In the days that followed, Kisame gradually adapted to the life of the Akatsuki organization. He found that everyone in the organization was unfathomable. During a mission, Kisame and Sasori were in a group. Sasori controlled many puppets to clear the way, and Kisame followed closely behind. On the way, they were attacked by the enemy, and several of Scorpion's puppets were cleverly broken by the enemy. Seeing this, Kisame rushed forward waving Samehada, and Samehada devoured the enemy's chakra as if it had been hungry for a long time, making the enemy wilted instantly. Scorpion saw it and praised him for a rare sentence: "It's still a bit useful." Kisame snorted and did not answer.

After the mission was successful, Kisame returned to the base and went to a corner to wipe Samehada alone. He knew that he had to constantly improve his strength to gain a foothold in this organization. At the same time, he was also thinking about whether the so-called great goal of the Akatsuki organization could really be achieved and what role he would play in it. The leader Bai should not be underestimated, and secretly decided to gain a foothold in the Akatsuki organization first.

Kisame began to carry out the first task assigned to him by the organization - to explore a suspicious place to see if there are any clues about the tailed beasts. After Kisame sneaked into the destination, he found that it was full of various traps. Just as he was moving forward cautiously, he met the Konoha ninjas who also came to explore intelligence. Kisame recognized that the leader was Asuma. Asuma saw Kisame and immediately became alert. "Kisame, what are you doing here?" Kisame grinned, "It has nothing to do with your Konoha." When the two sides were on the verge of a fight, suddenly many mechanical puppets emerged around them. It turned out to be a trap set by Scorpion to secretly follow Kisame. He wanted to use this to test Kisame. He was shocked, but he didn't expect Scorpion to trip him up from behind. Asuma and others also realized that something was wrong and temporarily put aside the confrontation with Kisame.

Kisame angrily questioned Scorpion: "What do you mean by this?" Scorpion slowly appeared and sneered: "Let's see if you are qualified to be a member of Akatsuki. If you can't even handle this situation, then get out as soon as possible."

Kisame gritted his teeth and clenched his Samehada. Asuma whispered to his teammates, "Solve the crisis first, then settle with Kisame." So the Konoha ninjas and Kisame were forced to stand together to fight against Scorpion's puppet army.

Kisame used Samehada to absorb the puppet's chakra, while Asuma led the team to perform their best ninjutsu attacks. In the fierce battle, Kisame found a flaw in the puppet formation, and he rushed to the center of the formation, and with a wave of Samehada, he destroyed the key control hub.

The puppets fell one after another, and Scorpion's face changed slightly. Kisame panted and said to Scorpion: "Your behavior will only ruin the organization's business. I will report today's matter to the leader." Scorpion snorted and turned away. Asuma looked at Kisame and said in a deep voice: "Let's stop today, but I won't show mercy next time we meet." After that, he led the Konoha ninja to evacuate quickly. Kisame looked at the direction they left and clenched his fist silently. He knew that the road in the Akatsuki organization was full of challenges. Kisame's strength. Kisame cursed, and Samehada waved and rushed towards the puppet group. Although Asuma and others did not know Scorpion's conspiracy, they also realized that it was not advisable to stay here for a long time, but the exit was blocked. While dealing with the puppets, Kisame shouted: "If you don't want to die, break the formation together." After hesitating for a moment, Asuma led the Konoha ninja to cooperate with Kisame temporarily. Kisame showed super strength. Samehada swallowed a large number of puppet fragments, and its power increased greatly. In the end, they worked together to find the exit, and Kisame separated from the Konoha ninja. He knew that there must be a deeper meaning behind Scorpion's actions, and he would definitely settle the score with Scorpion when he returned.
