After taking the Two-Tails.
Yuichi and Kisame returned from the sea to the land, to a sealing site prepared by Zetsu in a deep mountain.
It was also a cave.
Just like when sealing the One-Tail.
Nagato's Deva Path projection appeared and summoned the Gedo Statue.
Everyone connected to the Gedo Statue through their rings and began to inject chakra to seal the Two-Tails.
This process would last for two days.
Because of Yuichi, the speed of sealing the Tailed Beast with ten people was much faster than with nine.
However, after Yuichi and Kisame left.
The next morning.
Kirigakure, Land of Water.
In the Mizukage's office, Terumi Mei looked at the four Kiri ninja who had received simple treatment.
"Are you telling the truth? A ninja who can use the Ice Style Kekkei Genkai appeared near the Land of Water?"
The four described what they had seen that night to Terumi Mei.
After listening, Terumi Mei felt it was incredible.
Could the Ice Style Kekkei Genkai have such terrifying power?!
Why was such a powerful ninja a rogue ninja from Kirigakure?
Looking at the file Ao had found from Kirigakure on the desk.
Terumi Mei knew about Kisame Hoshigaki's situation. He was one of the former Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.
He had extraordinary combat power.
His power was more than enough to be the Mizukage.
However, at Kisame Hoshigaki's age, having such power was not strange.
But the other person.
Yuichi!
The protagonist of the last defection incident in Kirigakure three years ago.
That twelve-year-old kid who defected from Kirigakure.
He had eliminated all the hundred or so ninja sent out consecutively within three days.
Such an outstanding ninja had become a rogue ninja.
But three years ago, Kirigakure was not completely under control.
If it were now, such a thing would absolutely not happen!
The twelve-year-old kid from three years ago was now only fifteen.
Yet he easily suppressed the Two-Tails Jinchuriki.
And defeated the Two-Tails without much effort and took it away.
Such a talented kid was simply the perfect candidate for the next Mizukage.
Kirigakure had declined too much now.
A large number of Kekkei Genkai clans had been wiped out because of the Blood Mist Village.
The Yuki clan with Ice Style.
The Kaguya clan with Shikotsumyaku.
And other Kekkei Genkai clans had all disappeared during the Blood Mist Village period.
This was a major loss for Kirigakure.
Ao waved his hand to let the four Kiri ninja withdraw.
He turned to look at Terumi Mei.
"Lady Mizukage, that strange organization called the Akatsuki, there seems to be news about them before."
"They attacked Sunagakure and captured Sunagakure's Kazekage, the One-Tail Jinchuriki."
"Their target is the Tailed Beasts. What are they doing constantly capturing Tailed Beasts?"
Hearing this question, Terumi Mei looked up.
"I don't know why they want the Tailed Beasts."
Terumi Mei lowered her head and picked up Yuichi's file from the desk. "What I care about is whether this kid, who possesses the Ice Style Kekkei Genkai and extremely outstanding power, can return to Kirigakure."
"Huh?" Ao was stunned. Lady Mizukage was counting on a rogue ninja to return to Kirigakure?
Was she joking?
Terumi Mei slowly stood up. "Ao! The current Kirigakure is much weaker than the Kirigakure of the past. We have lost too many outstanding ninja, too much outstanding power."
"The Ice Style Kekkei Genkai was once just one of the many Kekkei Genkai in Kirigakure, not very conspicuous."
"But now, how many Kekkei Genkai clans are left in Kirigakure?"
Hearing this, Ao's expression gradually returned to calm.
Indeed, Kirigakure was too weak now.
Let alone competing with Konoha, Kirigakure was now probably on par with Sunagakure!
Kirigakure's future was bleak.
Ao looked up at Terumi Mei. "So, Lady Mizukage wants to bring the Yuki clan back to Kirigakure?"
"Yes!" Terumi Mei showed Yuichi's file to Ao.
"Take a look! Why did this kid become a rogue ninja back then?"
Ao took the file.
"First in every item of the Genin Comprehensive Test! This kid was so outstanding, why did he become..."
As Ao was speaking, he suddenly stopped.
The reason was obvious. Because he was too outstanding back then, he became an anomaly instead.
He was probably disliked by some people!
To become a rogue ninja for such a reason, even Ao felt it was unworthy for Yuichi.
A ninja who could have shone brightly in Kirigakure ended up as a rogue ninja.
During Kirigakure's Blood Mist Village period.
If Yuichi had been in Kirigakure, he might have been a shoo-in for the Sixth Mizukage.
What a pity.
Seeing Ao sighing, Terumi Mei knew that he probably shared the same sentiments as her.
"Send out ninja to search for this guy with all their might. No matter where he is, find him for me!"
"Then find a way to send ninja to bring him back to me."
Ao put down the file and nodded. "I understand! I'll go arrange it immediately."
Under Terumi Mei's order, Kirigakure, which had just been unsealed, sent out a large number of ninja.
They began to search for Yuichi throughout the entire shinobi world.
On the other side.
Yuichi, who was being searched for.
Was assisting in sealing the Two-Tails.
Yuichi had thought that Kumogakure ninja would appear and try to rescue the Two-Tails, triggering some missions.
Unfortunately, they didn't.
The Two-Tails was successfully sealed.
However, after the sealing ended.
Hidan and Kakuzu seemed a little unconvinced.
"Even a newcomer has captured two Tailed Beasts in a row."
"We seniors can't just watch like this!"
Hidan said.
Beside him, Kakuzu also spoke up. "Zero, leave the remaining Tailed Beasts to us!"
The attitude of the two was not good. Clearly, they were dissatisfied that Nagato had given the Two-Tails capture mission to Yuichi earlier.
Even for someone like Kakuzu who hated trouble.
Although he didn't like the work of capturing Tailed Beasts, he was quite unhappy that such work was snatched away by someone else.
The others did not speak.
However, the Deva Path's face looked a little bad.
"Since you like capturing Tailed Beasts so much, then go capture the Nine-Tails!"
Kakuzu and Hidan were completely unaware of the problem.
They agreed readily.
Then they silently glanced at Yuichi and disappeared.
After everyone had disappeared.
Kisame and Yuichi walked out of the cave.
Kisame laughed. "Those two idiots, nagging Zero like that. It seems that after finally gathering all the members, we're going to be two short again."
It was obvious that Nagato had sent the two to hunt the Nine-Tails, sending them to their deaths.
Nagato was clearly in a bad mood.
But at this time, Yuichi, who was preparing to open the system reward.
Suddenly saw a new mission pop up in front of him!
[Mission Issued]
[Save Suicidal Comrades]
[Rescue Akatsuki's San (Three) and Akatsuki's Hoku (North), who were sent to their deaths, bring them back to the organization base, and ensure their survival.]
[Mission Reward: Self-Healing Ability Enhancement]
Yuichi, who was just about to open the reward for the Two-Tails capture mission.
Suddenly looked at the newly issued mission!
A bright light shone in his eyes.
Self-healing ability enhancement?
Then once it was enhanced by a multiplier, wouldn't it be possible to obtain the ability of super-high-speed regeneration?!
This ability was quite valuable.
A life-saving divine skill!
Although Yuichi didn't like the Immortal Duo, for the sake of the reward!
It seemed he had to go to Konoha to bring back these two idiots who were courting death.
Yuichi smiled helplessly.
"Kisame, we can move freely for a while now, right?"
Kisame nodded. "Ah! That's right. Zetsu needs some time to find news about the Tailed Beasts. Once there is news, Zero will notify everyone."
"That's good! I'll take the Three-Tails mission!"
With that, Yuichi turned and prepared to leave.
Kisame looked at Yuichi. "Where are you going?"
"Konoha!"
