Chapter 41: 41
The first place in it has high value.
It is for this reason that the third Mizukage personally led the team to Konoha, hoping that the Genin under his command, can take the first place, revive the reputation of Kirigakure, and then go back to find the Daimyo of the Land of Water for funding.
Because Hozuki Mangetsu, Terumi Mei, and Ringo Ameyuri were all absent, the third Mizukage could only put his hopes on Hoshigaki Kisame before the exam started.
Unexpectedly, the latter really did not disappoint him and swept all opponents to win the championship.
Mizukage has decided that after returning, he will reward Kisame well and promote him for reuse.
In the box below.
"What a huge Chakra, it's not wrong to lose Obito."
Jiraya also looked at Kisame in the field and was amazed.
In the entire ninja world, Jiraiya can be regarded as a ninja with a huge amount of chakra, otherwise he would not be able to practice the Senjutsu. But the amount of chakra in Hoshigaki Kisame was even higher than what he has as a teenager.
"I hate this guy."
Tsunade looked unhappy, after all, Kisame made her lose the bet.
"So, I won?"
Orochimaru is very happy. He usually has a cold and deep expression in the village. Only in front of two close friends will he occasionally show the pure and happy side of his nature.
"Let's go, I'll treat you first, I won't go home tonight if I don't get drunk!"
Jiraya stood up, said with a bold face, and with a big wave of his hand, he took the lead and walked out of the box.
Before leaving.
Orochimaru moved to the end, and through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the box, he glanced at Kisame from a distance again, and a ray of light flashed away in the pair of golden snake eyes.
It's like... he is eyeing a prey.
As soon as Konoha Sannin walked out of the box, he met a short middle-aged man with a hat, glasses, and a black vest, who was very artistic.
"Who are you?"
Jiraya was stunned. Because he found that the other party seemed to be waiting outside the box door on purpose.
At this moment, Tsunade pushed Jiraiya aside, and said to the middle-aged man with her hands on her hips:
"Director Yamamoto, didn't I tell you that when I'm done talking to these two guys, I'll report to the crew as soon as possible. I'll definitely not let you go this time."
"Tsunade-dono, with your promise, I can finally rest assured."
The middle-aged man, that is, Director Yamamoto, heard the words, and quickly smiled and became quite.
"Tsunade, what happened just now, you want to... make a movie?!"
Jiraya caught up in surprise and asked Tsunade, "Are you trying to get paid to pay off your gambling debts? What movie are you shooting, show me the script, it shouldn't be bad, right ? In the movie who is the male lead, has it been decided, do you want me to play it, so that I can protect you on the set. "
He volunteered and wanted to be a flower guardian.
"What a fuss! I don't care about you."
Tsunade's backhand was an elbow strike, hitting Jiraiya's abdomen, causing him to cover his stomach and squat down in pain.
Orochimaru came up, patted Jiraya's shoulder, looked at Tsunade's back, and said:
"Don't worry about Tsunade, it's her bullying others, and no one can take advantage of her. Have you forgotten that when you peeked at her bathing, she broke several ribs and that you nearly died of serious injuries?"
"There are many people here, don't talk nonsense."
Jiraya stood up quickly and looked around as if nothing happened, for fear that his scandal would be heard and spread.
After Konoha Sannin left.
"Ugh."
Director Yamamoto sighed and prayed in his heart that Tsunade would not run away. However, when his eyes turned to the venue and saw Kisame leaving the venue, his eyes suddenly lit up again.
After taking a quick glance at Kisame that day, Yamamoto only remembered the Kirigakure forehead protector on the other's forehead, so today he thought about coming to the venue of the Chunin exam to try his luck, and urged Tsunade on the way.
He never thought that he would really find Kisame here.
After seeing the powerful water release ninjutsu of Kisame and the ability to summon sharks, Director Yamamoto was absolutely sure that the villain of the disaster film he was going to shoot this time must be played by Hoshigaki Kisame.
Thinking of this, Yamamoto hurried down the stairs and chased after Kisame's back.
As soon as the Kirigakure ninjas walked out of the venue, Jinin Akebino walked over to them.
"Mizukage-dono has gone back to the hotel to rest. Have a good time for the remaining time, and don't cause trouble. We will leave for the village early the next morning."
After Jinin Akebino conveyed Mizukage's instructions, he glanced at Kisame and said with a smile, "Come with me, Mizukage-dono wants to see you."
Under the envious gazes of the crowd, Kisame left with Jinin Akebino.
On the way.
Jinin Akebino's attitude towards Kisame was much more enthusiastic than before.
He revealed to Kisame that after returning this time, Kisame should be promoted to Anbu, and the two are likely to be colleagues in the future.
"Really?"
Kisame pretended to be surprised, and on the surface, he chatted with Akebino attentively, but secretly he kept looking at the ninja sword on the latter's shoulder.
As they were walking, a figure suddenly rushed out from the side and stopped in front of the two of them.
"Hello, my name is Yamamoto, and I'm a film director. I would like to have a talk with Hoshigaki Kisame-dono, can I?"
Director Yamamoto said quickly with a smile on his face.
"Hey, did you make a mistake?"
Akebino looked surprised, and then waved his hand like chasing flies, "Kisame is our Kirigakure ninja, not an actor. Go away, don't get in the way!"
"Who said ninjas can't be actors!"
Yamamoto was a little anxious, and quickly took out a large bill and stuffed it into Akebino's hands, "This lord, please be accommodating, I will only delay Kisame-dono for two minutes!"
'Oh?'
Jenin Akebino glanced at Yamamoto, put away the banknotes with satisfaction, and said to Kisame, "I'll wait for you in front."
Then he took a step forward.
Kisame looked at Yamamoto and said,
"I know you."
He had already remembered the Director Yamamoto in front of him was the man who was around Tsunade when he ran into Tsunade for the first time on the street that day.
"Kisame-dono, you have a good memory."
Yamamoto gave a thumbs up and talked to Kisame enthusiastically like a cannonball, "I'm going to shoot a movie, and there's still a lack of a second male role. I value you at a glance. Our crew originally planned to go to the coastal city of the Land of Water to film the movie, and the remuneration for the role is as high as one million. Moreover, you can also play with Princess Tsunade, one of the Konoha Sannin! How about it, are you interested in finding a place to sit? Come down and listen to me in detail?"
"Sorry, Director Yamamoto, I'm not interested. I still have something to do, so I'll go first."
Kisame politely declined the other party, and strode away as soon as he finished speaking.
He is so busy that he has no time to engage in sideline filming. Even if he can get in touch with Tsunade, it won't do Kisame any good.
In the eyes of Kisame, the rough guy Jenin Akebino is much more attractive than Tsunade. At least after he gets close to Akebino, he can find a way to get rid of the latter's ninja sword.
Yamamoto was dumbfounded.
He did not expect that when he offered such a good condition in one breath, he would be rejected by Kisame.
Kisame caught up with Akebino who was walking in the front.
"How is it, have you promised that director?" Akebino asked curiously.
"Of course not. My acting skills are so poor that I can't act." Kisame shook his head.
Hearing the words, Akebino laughed, patted Kisame on the shoulder and joked: "You are an honest person, you really are not the material for acting in a movie."
"My former companions and bosses often say that to me." Kisame also showed a smile and said.
Soon, the two returned to the hotel, walked through the corridor, and came to Mizukage's room.
"Go in."
Akebino pushed Kisame's shoulder, and signaled the two Kiri Anbu who were standing guard at the door to open the door.
'Squeak.'
Kisame walked into the room and saw the third Mizukage.
It was exactly as Akebino said.
After seeing Kisame, the third Mizukage proposed a lot of rewards, such as improving the status of Hoshigaki family in Kirigakure, and adding Kisame into Anbu.
As a Kirigakure ninja, the treatment that Kisame enjoys will be greater than before.
In the process of talking with Mizukage, Kisame has been observing the former's eyes without showing any trace.
He finally found that the eyes of the third Mizukage were not completely closed, but a very thin and small slit was exposed, and he looked at people from the slit.
Kisame speculates that this quirk of the third Mizukage is mostly to cover up the reflection of "Sharingan".
Because, the eyes of those who are deeply manipulated by the advanced illusion of Sharingan will reflect the pattern of Sharingan.
However, according to the information provided by Mangetsu, the Mizukage is awake most of the time, but occasionally does strange things.
This seems to show that Madara Uchiha does not completely control him, but will influence the latter in some key decisions, or give orders directly.
For example, the policy in the Blood Mist.
Kisame originally thought that this time when he came to Konoha to take the Chunin exam, the Mizukage, under Madara's manipulation, would play the role of Orochimaru in the anime, will come up with a Konoha destruction plan, thus provoking Konoha and Kirigakure to fight.
After all, destroying Konoha is what Madara wants to do.
Kisame was ready to run away at any time.
Unexpectedly, nothing happened.
Thinking about it carefully, it is estimated that it is because Uchiha Madara is old, and his Rennigan was transplanted to Nagato.
Madara is lurking in the dark, and is manipulating the Mizukage from such a long distance, thus the illusion of Sharingan may not be effective.
"You can go back now."
At this time, the third Mizukage instructed the Kisame.
"Yes."
Kisame leaned over slightly, keeping a bowing posture, he stepped back to the door, and walked out.
"Congratulations, Hoshigaki Kisame."
After seeing Kisame come out, Akebino stepped forward to congratulate, and patted the latter's shoulder again, "I am very optimistic about you, work hard, and strive to join our Seven Ninja Swordsmen in the future."
He saw the potential of Kisame and wanted to draw this genius to his faction in advance.
"Thank you for your guidance and care, my lord. Without your guidance, I would not have won the first place this time."
Kisame said very modestly, and continued to get close to the other party.
"Hahaha, don't call me your lord, just call me senpai in the future." Akebino was very happy and said quite boldly.
He is a very bold and unrestrained person. There are many friends who call him senpai in Kirigakure.
Hearing this, Kisame immediately pretended to be flattered, and called out with a sincere expression: "Senpai! I am willing to serve you."
"Good!"
Akebino was very satisfied, he put his arms around Kisame's shoulder and said, "Come on, your senpai invites you to dinner. I heard that there is a barbecue shop that is famous. If you come to Konoha and don't eat a meal, it would be a waste"
Kisame readily agreed.
In the evening, the two went to the store and found a place to sit.
Akebino not only ordered wine and food, but also called two young and beautiful wine girls over.
"This ninja is so mighty and strong."
One of the girls who accompanied the wine, had her eyes lit up after seeing Kisame, and her soft body suddenly rubbed up like a water snake against him.
Kisame quietly pushed her away.
