Kisame also finished fighting with Might Guy, and the two met not far away.
"It's just weird." As soon as they met, Kisame couldn't help but complain: "That watermelon-headed ninja is the weirdest ninja I have ever seen. He is obviously in his forties, but he kept shouting words like youth while fighting, which made me feel so sick!"
"What was the result?" Hitani asked calmly.
"I didn't kill him; I just beat him away," Kisame said. "I didn't use my full strength because I was afraid that something might happen to you. What about your opponent? Did you deal with him? Kill him? Or did you let them run away too?"
"Two escaped, and one was killed," Hitani said. Kisame laughed and said, "It seems that we have won a great victory this time. We were not injured, but we dealt with a rescue team from Konoha. The ninjas of Konoha are just like this, right, Mr. Hitani?"
"It's time to go back," Hitani walked towards Amegakure.
"Got it, got it," Kisame also hurriedly followed.
…
A few days later, the two returned to the Akatsuki headquarters.
At this time, the sealing ceremony of the One-Tail Jinchuriki had also ended, and the members of the Akatsuki were resting and chatting in the lobby on the first floor.
At this time, the door of the base was pushed open, and Hitani and Kisame walked in.
"I haven't seen you guys for a few days. Where have you been?" Pain asked immediately.
"Went to fight with the ninjas of Konoha," Kisame answered truthfully.
"Fight? With the Konoha ninjas?" Pain frowned and said, "The Konoha ninjas have found out where our base is. Where did you meet the Konoha ninjas?"
Kisame replied, "In the desert area of Kawa no Kuni. Don't worry, our base location has not been exposed. The Konoha ninjas came to rescue Yugao Uzuki. It was Mr. Hitani who took the initiative to find them."
"Did we win?" asked Hidan. Kisame raised his head and said, "Of course we did. What are the ninjas of Konoha? They are no match for Mr. Hitani and me. We drove them away without even getting hurt, and Mr. Hitani even killed a ninja."
"Killed one?" Hearing this, Uchiha Itachi immediately asked, "What was the name of the ninja who was killed, do you know?"
Kisame shook his head and said, "I don't know, I'm not very familiar with Konoha, but Mr. Itachi, why do you look so nervous? You rarely acted like this before."
Uchiha Itachi was stunned and explained, "I heard that Konoha is the largest ninja village, there are many masters in the village, there are many powerful ninjas that I can't deal with, so I am very curious whether the one killed by Hitani is one of the masters."
"I see." Kisame had no doubt. Kakuzu on the side teased, "I'm afraid that's not the reason, Uchiha Itachi, because you are from Konoha, so you are worried about your colleagues. It's already so obvious, do you think we can't see it?"
"I don't…" Uchiha Itachi shook his head.
Kakuzu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. It's nothing. Each of us comes from a different ninja village. It's normal to have feelings for our own village. You see, I have lived for hundreds of years, but every time I think of my ninja village, I will feel sad."
"...Uh." Uchiha Itachi quietly wiped his sweat.
"I have something else to do, so I'm going to rest first." Hitani ignored everyone and went to his bedroom on the second floor.
"This guy is still very unsociable," Deidara, who was lying on the sofa, said, "He has been in the organization for almost a month, but he is still a stranger to us, and he doesn't care about us, as if we owe him money."
"Mr. Hitani is born with this character, I understand," Konan smiled.
As he spoke, the floor moved, and then White Zetsu crawled out from the ground.
"Zetsu, where have you been?" Pain asked.
White Zetsu said with a smile, "I went to watch Mr. Hitani and the Konoha ninjas fight these days, and just came back. I'm sorry for taking action without informing you in advance."
"It doesn't matter, how was your observation?" Pain asked.
Without waiting for White Zetsu to speak, Kisame immediately said triumphantly, "You must have seen the fight between me and that watermelon-headed ninja. How was it? Were you frightened by my strength?"
"I am not watching your fight, but Mr. Hitani's fight. Mr. Hitani's opponent is a very famous ninja from Konoha. I believe you should know this person," White Zetsu said, "The elite of Konoha, known as the Copy Ninja, Hatake Kakashi."
"So the ninja's name is Kakashi." Kisame nodded.
Hearing the name Kakashi, Uchiha Itachi and the masked man Tobi were slightly moved, but they didn't show it.
"According to the information I have collected, Hatake Kakashi graduated from the Ninja Academy at the age of five, became a Chunin at the age of six, and became a Jonin at the age of twelve. Among all the ninjas in the ninja world, no one has surpassed him in his resume," White Zetsu said.
"Became a Chunin at the age of six? Became a Jonin at the age of twelve?" Hidan sighed, "What kind of monster is this ninja named Kakashi? A descendant of a famous family?"
"No, he is a civilian ninja, but he has surpassed many geniuses by his talent." White Zetsu looked at Itachi and said, "Mr. Itachi, you have worked with Hatake Kakashi before, so you should know whether the information I said is true or false."
"You are telling the truth." Uchiha Itachi nodded.
"So the one who fought against Hitani was this genius called Hatake Kakashi?" Deidara asked, "It must have taken a lot of time and effort for Mr. Hitani to defeat this Hatake Kakashi, right? Was he injured?"
"This is the point I want to emphasize," White Zetsu said in a rare serious tone, "Mr. Hitani cut off Kakashi's arm in just two rounds, and he himself was not injured at all. According to my observation and analysis in secret, Mr. Hitani didn't even have a disordered breathing. That Hatake Kakashi had no power to fight back in front of Mr. Hitani!"
