108Hoshigaki Kisame's surprising ideaAI Model: gemini-2.5-flashChapter 108 Hoshigaki Kisame's surprising idea
"Destiny is meant to be broken!"
Naruto's casual remark made Neji think deeply.
The Caged Bird Curse Mark only traps the heart.
The others also waved their fists, their faces flushed with excitement.
They were all twelve-year-old youths, invincible in their prime.
They possessed a strong drive and a heart that loved the Village.
For the Village, for a beautiful and brand-new future.
That night, with the fire trees and silver flowers at their backs, and brilliant lights all around.
The youths' faces were filled with youthful, confident smiles.
"How innocent they are."
Jiraiya huddled in a corner, watching the scene before him, a smile unconsciously appearing on his face: "I seem to remember what we were like back then."
Tsunade crossed her arms, holding her two burdens, and raised an eyebrow: "It's a pity, the old man later became a bit muddled, some of the things he did were truly incomprehensible."
"To put it bluntly, he lost his confidence, didn't he?"
Jiraiya shrugged.
Look at Naruto now; he is confident that his strength can control everything, and the benefits he offers are enticing enough.
So he hardly holds any power, looking truly no different from a free spirit.
But look at Konoha Village, it only took a few years to transform from decrepit to vibrant.
With the five-year plan implemented, he truly achieved it.
And the next step…
Jiraiya's gaze fell on the Daimyo chatting with villagers not far away.
"The Daimyo is truly open-minded."
"Yes, a rare person of insight."
Tsunade deeply agreed.
"But the challenges ahead will be even greater."
A Village and a country are completely incomparable.
What will Naruto do?
And with the impending storm, can he withstand it?
"So, the time for us to be needed has come."
Tsunade's face showed a charming smile.
She really liked the current Konoha Village; it had unconsciously healed the faint scars hidden deep within her heart.
Even her hemophobia, she felt, was not as severe as before, though she wasn't sure if it was just her imagination.
Her mind recalled the two who had shouted to her: I want to be Hokage!
The Fire Will has always existed.
It's just that the form is different.
"The current Konoha Village is great, Nawaki, Kato Dan, I hope you are also doing well in the Pure Land."
…
"Sigh!"
Kisame Hoshigaki, seeing this scene, quietly huddled in a corner.
The Konoha Village before him was far better than the Hidden Mist Village of the past.
There was simply no comparison.
These youths were also very bright and their strength was good.
It was hard to imagine why Konoha Village would produce so many geniuses.
"This is outrageous."
Rubbing his hands, Kisame Hoshigaki was utterly bewildered.
Is the Land of Fire a cradle for geniuses?
From the First Hokage to now, even after the Third Hokage and his generation messed things up so much, there could still be so many geniuses rising.
Heaven is blind…
Wait!
Kisame Hoshigaki's face suddenly stiffened; it seemed he was also a person of Konoha Villagenow.
"Ahem, heaven has opened its eyes."
"But this time, I wonder who will come from Hidden Mist Village."
Kisame Hoshigaki narrowed his eyes: "It's a good chance for me to see how they've fared over the years."
He stroked his chin again, pondering faintly: 'Can I use a honey trap to seduce Mei Terumī and win an ally for Konoha Village?'
"Hmm, seems worth a try."
He looked around and saw Might Guy and Kakashiclashing head-on.
His heart stirred, and he walked over with a chuckle, flexing his muscles with a confident brow raised, and a shark-like grin: "Do you think I have manly charm?"
Kakashi: "???"
Might Guy finally looked directly at the man before him, and said spiritedly: "Manly charm, you have to look at me."
Kakashi massaged his forehead.
Oh no!
Here we go again!
"Get lost."
Seeing Might Guy, Kisame Hoshigaki felt a bit triggered.
This bastard was no good; he couldn't even remember his name.
"Oh-ho, let's have a true man's duel, nameless one."
Damn it!
Kisame Hoshigaki nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood.
It was like this again.
How many times?
He hadn't been able to remember his name since he was captured five years ago.
And it was still the same now.
He always felt this person was his bane.
Seeing the two getting more and more heated, Kakashi quickly intervened: "Alright, alright, there will be plenty of opportunities to fight later, but not now, don't make us a laughingstock."
"By the way, Kisame, what do you want to do?"
"I want to seduce Mei Terumī."
Ah!?
Might Guy and Kakashi froze, their eyes widening instantly.
They looked Kisame up and down a few times, then silently withdrew their gaze.
Honestly, unreliable!
"Hey, what kind of look is that? Do you think Mei Terumī is that shallow, only looking at appearances?"
"She's desperate to marry now because she hasn't met the right one."
Kisame Hoshigaki grinned: 'As a fellow Ninja from Hidden Mist Village, I think I'm quite suitable.'
"As long as we get together, Konoha Village will have one less enemy, won't it?"
That would truly be a lot of trouble for you.
Kakashi's mouth twitched, not knowing what to say.
Might Guy gave a thumbs up: "Impressive, you're Kisame Hoshigaki, right? I, Might Guy, remember you now."
Huh?
So you can remember my name?
Kisame Hoshigaki's eyes instantly blazed with fire…
"Ah, a headache!"
Kakashi clutched his head, completely numb.
…
"That Kisame Hoshigaki~"
Naruto was very sensitive to sound, and Kisame Hoshigaki and the others spoke without restraint, so he heard every word.
His mouth twitched, feeling a bit speechless.
"Hahahaha!"
Nine-Tailed laughed heartily in the space, slapping the ground: "This guy is truly a genius!"
"But don't say it, if it really succeeds, maybe it really can."
"Perhaps."
As long as one sits in that position, some ideas will naturally change.
Even if it truly succeeds, he doesn't believe it would affect Mei Terumī.
Her ability to successfully ascend to power already demonstrated her extraordinary nature.
She was desperate to marry, but she wasn't foolish.
"Phew!"
Naruto sat aside, watching the few of them bicker, a rare, pure smile appearing on his face.
"After these few days, it's time to appear in my true form."
"This time the action is a bit big, so it must be foolproof."
"It's time for the Clone Technique to return."
The sapling of the Clone Technique had not shown much movement until now.
And there was only this one blood and flesh clone.
After four or five years of training, it was time for it to return to the main body.
"I wonder how much my basic strength will increase after merging."
He was slightly looking forward to it.
…
"This is Konoha Village!"
"It's very prosperous!"
"I like this place."
A few days later, at the main gate of Konoha Village, Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro slowly entered Konoha Village.
The Chunin Exams were about to begin…
