Chapter 201: 201

Kisame introduced them to the other women in the yard and, then walked to Yukino and gently embraced her in his arms in front of everyone, and kissed her, "It's been hard on you doing work at home."

"It's not hard." Yukino blushed and whispered, her eyes full of happiness.

The other women blushed slightly when they saw the public display of affection, covering their mouths that had a smile.

"There is something I need to do in the village. I'll deal with it first. I'll come back at night to comfort you."

Kisame whispered in Yukino's ear, which made the latter's heart beat faster and her ears instantly turned red. Then Kisame turned and walked out of the house.

When he got out of the house, he saw Pakura with her back to him standing there. Although she was wearing an Anbu mask, she still wore her favorite backless outfit, revealing a large, white and clean back.

"Kisame-sama."

Hearing the movement behind her, Pakura turned around and quickly knelt down on one knee to greet Kisame.

"Don't be like this."

Kisame stepped forward, helped her up, and said with a smile, "You are not only my most trusted subordinate, but also my good friend."

"Yes."

Under Kisame's gaze, Pakura responded habitually, but the face behind the mask was quietly flushed.

"Have you adapted to the Curse mark? Have you encountered any problems?"

Kisame noticed that the curse mark above her collarbone had disappeared, and it seemed that it had entered her body. This should mean that she completely absorbed the power of the curse mark, right?

"I've already mastered that power, it's amazing, it's very... powerful." Pakura answered truthfully, with a bit of excitement in her tone.

"Can you show it to me?" Kisame was interested in seeing it.

"Yes, of course." Pakura nodded immediately, because she wanted to show the results of her training to Kisame.

She wanted Kisame's approval.

So, the two moved to the training ground in the back mountain of Kirigakure. But, it's not just the two of them, Mangetsu is here too.

He had been hiding in the dark since Kisame returned to the village, stalking and peeping furtively. He liquefies at will by virtue of his slime form, so that he can easily hide his figure, such as hiding in a ditch by the side of the road.

Therefore, even Pakura didn't notice his existence, but after Kisame arrived at the training ground, he said lightly: "Come out."

As soon as he said that.

With a swoosh, a mass of white liquid launched from the ditch, and finally landed on the ground, taking the shape of a slime.

"Hee hee, I've been careful enough, but I still can't hide from your eyes boss. You are mighty and domineering!"

As soon as Mangetsu appeared, he immediately started flattering Kisame.

"Tell me, what do you want?" Kisame stopped him and asked.

"Uh, this..."

Hearing that Mangetsu put on a shy look and said, "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that I haven't been close to you for a long time, I wonder if you have forgotten about me."

"Hiss."

Pakura, who has been listening on the side, could not help but get goosebumps when she heard these words and her body became numb.

""

Kisame was also a little speechless, but he immediately thought of an idea, so he instructed Mangetsu, "You came just in time, now fight her."

'Oh?'

When Mangetsu heard this, he glanced at Pakura curiously.

He knew that this mysterious woman was brought back by Kisame from the Hozuki Castle, and was his most trusted confidant.

Although Mangetsu is the commander of the Anbu of Kirigakure, he has no direct leadership over this woman. In addition, she is usually alone, so the two do not have much contact.

Now there is a chance to fight against her and prove to Kisame that he is the strongest ninja in Kirigakure after him - he is eager to fight and can't wait.

"Woooooommmm!"

With a strange cry, he transformed into a Water Giant under the scorching flames to compete with the phoenix.

The phoenix fell from the sky and it's pair of flaming claws hit the water giant, instantly smashing it into pieces .

The gap between the two is too big, they are not in a same level at all.

"I surrender!" Mangetsu turned back into a slime, raised a pair of small hands, and shouted in panic.

However, Pakura, who was furious, seemed to have no intention of stopping at all. The phoenix she transformed into, circled in the air, aimed at him again, and swooped down.

"Boss!!!!"

Mangetsu hurriedly ran towards the stand, leaking water while running, shouting, "Boss, save me!"

'Is this guy so scared that he is peeing?'

Kisame couldn't help laughing when he saw Mangetsu's embarrassed posture. But he really should take action, otherwise, that guy may be burned alive by Phoenix.

'Swiiii!'

A red torii descended from the sky, intercepting the burning phoenix, making it let out a whimper while flapping its wings and falling to the ground.

The flames dissipated, Pakura laid on the ground and turned back into a human again, but her clothes were all burnt out.

"Turn your head and don't look."

Kisame said to Mangetsu, then jumped to Pakura's side, took off his wide suit jacket, and put it on her.

'It seems that she lost her consciousness.'

He then hugged her and left the training ground and returned to her residence shortly after.

In the room, Pakura was fine after a short rest.

"I'm sorry, I just... seem to have lost my mind."

She said in a low voice and didn't dare to look into Kisame's eyes, obviously feeling very dissatisfied with her performance in actual combat.

In fact, when she practiced alone before, this didn't happen, but when she fought against Mangetsu, she was provoked by and because of the influence of the curse mark, she lost her usual calm.

"Don't blame yourself, the essence of the curse mark is natural energy, it will make people fall into rage, this is an expected side effect. I believe you will overcome it, after all, you are the Pakura of the Scorch release, and are strong enough to be recognised by me."

Kisame smiled and comforted her.

In fact, her combat power was higher than what Kisame had expected. Apart from Kisame and Tsunade, Pakura can be said to be the third strongest person in Kirigakure, even more powerful than Orochimaru.

"Well, I'll try my best..."

Facing Kisame's encouragement, Pakura replied in a low voice, feeling warm in her heart.

"You have a good rest, I'll go first."

Seeing that she was a little tired, Kisame turned around and left.

As soon as he walked out of her house, Kisame stopped and said to the air with a half-smiling smile:

"Why are you following again? Is there anything else you want?"

As soon as he said that, a figure rushed out from the side with a swoosh, hugged his thigh and began to cry.

"Boss, I was beaten so badly by that woman. If this matter spreads out, I'm afraid that I, the commander of the Anbu, won't be able to do it anymore. Uuuuu..."

Mangetsu began crying so loudly that Kisame's ears hurt.

"Shut up."

Kisame frowned and said impatiently as he released a murderous aura. The frightened Mangetsu's cry stopped abruptly, and it was as silent as a cicada.

"The reason you lost to her is because she has the curse mark I planted on her body."

Kisame looked down at the shaking slime, thought for a moment, and continued to say, "As you are the commander of the Anbu, I will also give you this curse mark."

"Really? That's great!" Mangetsu's eyes widened and he jumped up excitedly hearing that.
