Chapter 13: 13

Kisame slapped Pakura on the face and woke her up.

Unexpectedly, after less than a minute, she fainted again.

In desperation, Kisame could only slap her continuously and wake her up again and again. After being slapped several times, Pakura's originally petite and delicate face became visibly swollen to the naked eye.

Another ten minutes passed. Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

Just when Kisame frowned and was about to give up on this woman -

'Whoosh.'

A scorching flame rose from Pakura's body and burned roaringly.

The heat wave spread to the entire cave in an instant, distorting the air.

In the surprised eyes of Kisame.

The chakra threads that bound Pakura's body, one after another, were melted and burned by the flames. Immediately afterwards, the wound on her shoulder also healed quickly, and as the scar wore off, delicate new skin appeared.

Her swollen face, which was beaten by Kisame gradually diminished and her beautiful appearance was restored.

Strong chakra fluctuations gushed out of her body like waves, one after another.

It seems that the evolution succeeded.

Pakura, like a phoenix, experienced the great horror between life and death, and finally reborn from the ashes and returned to Nirvana.

She stood up slowly, her whole body was shrouded in flames, and she turned into a "Fire Bird", with a pair of flaming eyes looking at Kisame, that were indifferent to everything.

'Out of control?'

Kisame narrowed his eyes and prepared to make a move, intending to let Pakura calm down.

However, before he could make a move, the flame coat on Pakura's body suddenly went out, she lost consciousness and fell down.

After a long time.

Pakura woke up slowly with a splitting headache.

It's still the familiar cave, and the familiar man - Kisame, that greeted her.

"Congratulations, you survived. As agreed, you can leave here now."

Seeing that Pakura was awake, Kisame told her.

"What exactly is that thing you gave me to eat?"

Pakura stared at Kisame and asked with a complicated expression.

She can feel that her body is full of strength and vitality now, which is very different from before.

"Monster cell. I believe you have already felt the changes in your body."

"Why give it to me? I'm obviously your enemy." Pakura pressed.

"It's just a whim and an experiment. You just happen to be a good specimen."

Kisame chuckled and gave half-truth.

"Are you really... willing to let me go? Once I regain my freedom and tell what you've done, will you be able to stay in Kirigakure? I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to survive then?"

Pakura stood up and continued to question with a burning gaze.

"So, I want you to keep it a secret and forbid to reveal information about me to anyone. In addition, I also hope that you will continue to play as the Hero of the Suna, whether it's Kushimaru Kuriarare and Jinpachi Munashi, or the earlier Kurosuki Raiga, you killed them all with your own hands, understand?"

Kisame said calmly.

He decided to let Pakura help him carry the pot to the end. As long as she stands at the front desk and draws enough hatred, it will be difficult for Kirigakure to suspect that he is a traitor.

In this way, Kisame can stay in Kirigakure with peace of mind until he collects seven ninja swords.

"What if I don't cooperate?"

Pakura asked back. Kisame should also know that she can pretend to agree to his conditions and betray him immediately after returning to Sunagakure.

Pakura finally remembered that her hair was burnt clean by the flames from her body when she evolved earlier.

Even her clothes were burnt a lot, and just a few straps that flew upwards when she evolved were left.

For a beauty-loving female ninja, losing her hair is definitely a huge blow.

Pakura couldn't accept it.

Kisame is really a gentleman in his bones.

He took off his coat, put it on Pakura's shoulders, and comfort her:

"Although you have become bald, you have also become stronger. After all, this is something to be happy about, isn't it?"

'Bald, bald...'

Hearing these words, Pakura was not happy at all, she further despaired

'Alas, it seems I'm still not very good at comforting people.'

With this thought in mind, Kisame took the lead to walk out of the cave.

Pakura looked at Kisame's back, and finally cheered up and followed.

In the process, she hesitated for a while, but still put the straw hat on her head.

Not to mention, it's the right size and comfortable.

After coming out of the cave, they found that it was already dawn, the pale blue sky was inlaid with a few sparse stars, and a waning moon hung on the horizon.

The breeze is blowing gently, bringing the fragrance of soil and flowers in the forest, which makes people feel refreshed.

A man and a woman looked at each other and were silent for a while.

"I'm leaving."

Pakura took a deep look at Kisame, suddenly bowed quickly to him, and then left without looking back.

Kisame watched Pakura all the way to the end, and soon her figure disappeared in the depths of the mountains and dense forests in the Land of Water.

The sky was white as fish belly, and the first ray of sunlight in the morning cut through the darkness between heaven and earth.

Another new day.

'Pakura, will she start a new life and change her future destiny?'

Kisame doesn't know.

He just hates this world full of fatalism and causal reincarnation, where everyone's fate seems to be arranged somewhere,

Who is the protagonist, who is the supporting role, who is the villain, everything is already decided.

Kisame is not satisfied with fighting against fate alone.

Therefore, he chose a person like Pakura to inject some new variables into life, so that she would have the opportunity to break her fate in the future and stir up the situation in the ninja world.

Such a ninja world would be interesting, wouldn't it?

Coming back from his thoughts, Kisame was also ready to return to Kirigakure.

He still took the waterway, and went back to yesterday's battle site and waited for a while. It didn't take long for a group of Kirigakure ninjas to arrive in a hurry and walk into the woods.

Soon there was a commotion in the woods.

It seems that they have found the corpses of the Heartless Duo and other ninjas.

Kisame dived underwater again and swam in the direction of the village.

This time, the search and suppression team sent by Kirigakure consisted of more than 100 people, divided into 20 teams. After several days of high-intensity combat, although most of the Sunagakure ninjas were wiped out, large number of their own personnel was also lost.

In particular, the main combat team led by the Heartless Duo was completely wiped out.

Less than one fifth of the people survived.

Others are missing, and it is not known if they are really dead, or if they pretended to be dead and actually defected to other countries or Ninja villages.
