"As a ninja, there is only one word in my ninja way, which is to win.

I will do whatever it takes to win every battle. The greatest sense of achievement in my life is to build the happiness of my heart upon the unforgettable pain of the enemy. "

Kisame introduced himself to his teammates in a serious manner.

"Well said!"

As soon as Kisame finished speaking, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside the training ground.

Ringo looked at Mangetsu and couldn't help rolling hwr eyes: "Why is it you again?"

Mangetsu appeared again.

"Kisame, I just want to be friends with you. Can you give me a chance? Why don't you let me join you. It's not bad to form a team of four."

As he walked towards the three of them, he said with a smile.

"This guy is really annoying. He has a thick skin and we can't get rid of him as if he stuck to us like shit stepped on the road ." Ameyuri stood on tiptoe and whispered in Terumi Mei's ear.

Terumi Mei also frowned slightly, feeling helpless. She glanced at Kisame, wondering how he was going to deal with this annoying spirit.

She then saw Kisame put his hand into the ninja bag and take out a kunai.

"Let's play a small game. If I win, please leave immediately, and don't bother me and my companions again. But if you win, I will agree to your conditions and let you join this team."

He suggested.

"Oh? What game?"

When Mangetsu heard it, he suddenly became interested.

"The rules are simple."

Facing Mangetsu, Kisame leaned over and planted the Kunai upright on the ground, then took two steps back.

"With the same distance, whoever grabs this kunai first will win."

"That's it. Okay!"

Mangetsu's eyes flashed brightly, and he agreed without hesitation. He has been competitive since he was a child, and he has never lost.

"Then I'll be the referee."

Terumi Mei walked between the two of them and added, "I will count down to three, the game will start when I count to one, okay?"

Both nodded.

Terumi Mei cleared her throat and glanced at Kisame with some worry.

As this game was proposed by Kisame, he must be very sure, but the opponent is Hozuki Mangetsu, the rumoured number one genius of Kirigakure, and he is definitely not an opponent that can be easily defeated.

Ameyuri Ringo also clenched her fists nervously and shouted at Kisame and said.

"You must not lose, I don't want to be teammates with that annoying guy!"

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

On the training ground, when Terumi Mei counted down to one, Kisame and Mangetsu started almost simultaneously.

'Whoosh!'

Mangetsu bent down, fast as lightning, and grabbed towards Kunai as soon as he stretched out his hand.

'I won.'

At this moment, he showed a smile that belonged to a winner.

However, Kisame also laughed.

Because from the beginning, he didn't intend to compete with Mangetsu for Kunai, so when the other party bent over to pick it up, he slammed his knee into his face!

'Boom!'

The smile on Mangetsu's face only lasted for less than one tenth of a second, and then he felt the darkness in front of him, and his body was pushed upside down by Kisame's knee, flew back more than ten meters, and finally hit the training ground's fence and stopped.

Seeing this scene, Terumi Mei and Ringo Ameyuri were both stunned, unable to say a word for a long time.

Kisame picked up the kunai on the ground, walked across the training ground, and walked in front of Mangetsu.

At this time, he was slumped on the ground with his back against the fence, his nose crooked and his mouth full of blood, looking miserable.

Obviously, Mangetsu is still too young, and the secret technique Hydration jutsu has not been fully practiced. Facing such an unprepared surprise attack, he was too late to activate the jutsu.

He glared at Kisame, his eyes were about to burst into flames, and he wanted to yell at the other party for not following the rules, but his mouth was so painful that he couldn't open it.

Kisame squatted down, put the kunai on the neck of Mangetsu, and said:

"Now you tell me, you won or I won."

As soon as this statement came out, Mangetsu finally realized that he had been tricked.

Yes, Kisame first formulated a very fair game rule, but he never intended to abide by that rule.

From the very beginning, the so-called game to win or lose was a scam. When Mangetsu agreed to it, he fell into the latter's trap and was completely defeated.

"That's right, this is the Unlimited Taijutsu of Kisame. You know how powerful it is now! Humph."

Ringo trotted over, made a face at Mangetsu, and mocked.

"Let's go."

Kisame stood up, put the kunai in the ninja bag, and then turned and left.

Mangetsu watched the backs of the three leaving, clenched his fists, and swallowed the broken teeth and blood into his stomach.

Although very unwilling, he did lose this time.

'Hoshigaki Kisame, is a despicable and shameless bastard.'

After leaving the training ground.

Along the way, Ringo Ameyuri was excitedly pestering Kisame to learn his Unlimited Taijutsu. Because she felt that it was too exciting to defeat the enemy by means of unlimited taijutsu.

But Terumi Mei was even more worried.

Although it is said that with the atmosphere in the Blood Mist, the elders of each family will not interfere in the battle between the juniors. If anyone is bullied, it is often useless to complain, and they can only rely on their own strength to bully them back.

This is to exercise the blood of young people.

However, Hozuki Mangetsu is a disciple of the third Mizukage, and Kisame is a low class person in the village, the difference in status between the two is too great.

If Hozuki Mangetsu puts down his dignity and face, and is determined to take revenge, Kisame will be in big trouble.

Thinking of this, Terumi Mei suggested:

"Let's go to the mission office. Before taking the Chunin exam, we must complete at least one C-rank mission to get in well with each other. By the way, we will leave the village for a while to hide from Mangetsu."

"Okay."

Kisame thought about it, and couldn't find an excuse to refuse, so he agreed.

So, a group of three crossed the street and soon came to the mission office of the Mizukage Building.

.......

Mission office.

"Elder Genji."

As soon as Terumi Mei came here, she found the old man in charge of the mission release, and greeted him warmly.

"Oh, it's Terumi Mei, I haven't seen you for a few days."

The man named Elder Genji laughed and waved at her kindly, as he was very fond of this junior.

Kisame stood behind Terumi Mei and looked at the Elder Genji calmly.

He was an old man of seventy, with bald hair and sparse teeth, wearing a monk-like brown robe and leaning on a snake-shaped wooden staff.

However, it is such a seemingly ordinary old man, that has almost the same power and status as the third Mizukage. All important matters in the village must be consulted by the Elder Genji.

That's because, in Kirigakure, the Mizukage is usually the strongest ninja in the village. In addition, the villagers will regard the oldest person in the past as an elder, who is responsible for all the government affairs of the village.

Although the ninja world has been peaceful in recent years, the Kirigakure has been in civil strife for a long time. Coupled with the Blood Mist policy implemented by the third Mizukage, the average lifespan of Kirigakure ninjas does not exceed 30 years old.

Longevity is extremely rare.

Elder Genji, the old man who was born in the Warring States Period and accompanied Kirigakure through decades of ups and downs, can be said to be the best elder, and has always been admired by countless villagers.

"Elder Genji, this is Ameyuri Ringo and my new teammate- Hoshigaki Kisame. He is an excellent ninja worthy of support, and a person with a kind and warm heart."

Terumi Mei introduced Kisame to Elder Genji, hoping that Kisame could leave a good impression in front of the old man.

Kisame bowed to Elder Genji and paid tribute to the elder.

After a simple greeting, they got to the point.

"Let me see what mission is suitable for you."

After Terumi Mei explained her intentions, Elder Genji took out a thick stack of documents and put on his reading glasses to look over it.

When Ringo saw this, she said eagerly: "Elder, I want to perform B-level mission this time. Those low-level tasks are too boring and the payment is low."

"B-level tasks require at least two Chunin or one Jonin in the team to undertake. If I remember correctly, you should all be genin."

Elder Genji smiled as he looked at Ringo.

"Ringo, don't harass Elder Genji, we just need to perform C-level tasks as before," Terumi Mei said.

Kisame did not speak.

In Kirigakure, the missions are not divided according to the ability of the ninja, but according to the identity.

The two search and suppression operations that Kisame had participated in before, although they were not the main force in the team, had reached the B level in difficulty.

However, unlike the low class people like Kisame, Terumi Mei and Ringo Ameyuri are both children of a big family, so it is naturally impossible for them to take risks for the village.

Speaking of which, after Kisame joined this team, it can be considered that with the halo of the two of them, there was no need for him to perform those dangerous tasks.

"Let's go with this."

At this time, Elder Genji raised his head from the pile of documents and instructed the three of them according to Terumi Mei's requirements.

Snow village is a village in the Land of Water that snows all the year round. The scenery is very beautiful. Elder Genji went to that village when he was young and knew the old village chief there, he heard that the latter passed away unfortunately some time ago.

A few days ago, Sakura, the granddaughter of the old village chief, led a small caravan from Snow Village to Kirigakure to sell souvenirs and buy daily necessities.

Now that the heavy snow is about to close the mountain, considering that on the way back, she may encounter hungry beasts going down the mountain to find food, Sakura came to the Mizukage Building and issued a commission to protect the caravan.

"This mission is not too dangerous. You just need to deal with the wild beasts in the mountains and bring the villagers back to the Snow Village safely."

After Elder Genji gave a few words of advice, he handed over the assignment letter to Mei Terumi.

"Well, we'll set off immediately."

Terumi Mei took the assignment, bowed to Elder Genji again, and then turned and left with her two teammates.

After half an hour.

The three met their clients outside the village, the villagers of Snow Village.

In the crowd, the most striking was a young woman, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with very white skin, pure and sweet appearance.

She is the granddaughter of the late old village head of Snow Village, Sakura.

"Excuse me, may I ask... is there a mistake?"

When Sakura saw Terumi Mei and Ringo Ameyuri, she was surprised at first, and then asked cautiously.

She couldn't believe that the ninja sent by Kirigakure turned out to be two girls.

Terumi Mei is at most eleven or twelve years old, Ameyuri who looks younger, is obviously a child.

"Hey, don't underestimate us, okay? I've completed more than 20 C-level missions!"

Ringo snorted dissatisfiedly and showed her resume, but that did not dispel the other party's worries.

It wasn't until they saw Kisame that Sakura and the villagers felt a little relieved.

Although Kisame is only 12 years old, but with a height of close to 1.9 meters and a burly body like a mountain, he gives people a sense of security.

"Before leaving, I have a few questions to ask, and I hope you can answer them truthfully."
