Chapter 40 - Chapter 40: Dignity or Life?

"Boom!!!"

After Haneda Kaito helped Kisame run out of the cave, a loud noise followed, and the cave that had existed for who knows how many years completely collapsed.

"..."

Haneda Kaito looked back at the cave with lingering fear, but the scene in front of him left him completely dumbfounded on the spot.

"Mon... Monster."

Kisame clutched his wound, cold sweat slowly dripping down his cheeks.

They chose to hide here because there was a small mountain range.

But at this moment, this small mountain range was scarred.

Especially the small mountain they were in, it was penetrated by that dark purple light just now!

The entire small mountain was split in two from the middle.

The mountain! Was cut open!

Thinking that the dark purple light was just a few meters away from them.

Kisame and Haneda Kaito were covered in cold sweat.

If they were hit directly, undoubtedly, they would have died miserably on the spot!

There wouldn't even be a possibility of escape.

"Too... too exaggerated. That... that was slashed from several kilometers away."

Haneda Kaito's lips were trembling; this power and coverage range completely exceeded his cognition.

Even Ninjutsu unleashed by a real Jonin would absolutely not be this exaggerated.

If it wasn't a Jonin, then...

"Ka... Kage..."

Haneda Kaito's eyes held intense fear. In front of such an existence, he and Kisame were no different.

They were all ants!

"Ki... Kisame, this won't work. He obviously has sensory abilities, otherwise, his attacks couldn't continuously cover us here. It should be because he's drunk that he can't get our exact location.

But if we continue like this, we can only gamble on luck with him, betting that every slash won't hit us."

Under the fear of death, Haneda Kaito's brain worked rapidly.

It had to be said that Haneda Kaito being able to be Kisame's support meant he was also very intelligent and capable, analyzing the situation very thoroughly.

"We, we, can we gamble with him?"

Finally, Haneda Kaito's lips trembled slightly.

Kisame was silent upon hearing this.

Yes, gamble with Yuyu?

If Yuyu misses, at worst he just swings the sword again!

But every time he swings the sword, they are gambling their lives with Yuyu!

Betting that Yuyu misses!

But as long as they bet wrong once, they die!

No one wants to attempt such a desperate gamble.

"Then what to do?"

Kisame clutched his wound. Intense pain and massive blood loss made his brain somewhat blank at this moment.

He couldn't find a solution at all.

But he was unwilling to wait for death like this.

The current Kisame wasn't the Kisame of the South of the Dawn in the future Akatsuki who could calmly face death.

Now he was young and had many things to do; how could he die here?

Killed by a drunkard having a drunken fit?!

That would be too aggrieved!!!

Haneda Kaito was also anxious at this moment.

After all, no one knew when the next terrifying slash would come.

Every second was extremely urgent.

Suddenly, Haneda Kaito's eyes lit up.

"Little red flower, Kisame, little red flower!"

Haneda Kaito shouted in pleasant surprise.

"Little red flower, that comical sticker those Konoha guys stuck on their foreheads?"

Kisame endured the pain, not understanding why Haneda Kaito was so excited.

"Do you remember? What that monster said when he attacked us."

Haneda Kaito's eyes held excitement, as if he saw the hope of survival.

"He said, no little red flower, go to die."

Haneda Kaito had a look of recollection in his eyes.

"Mmm, indeed, he said that."

Kisame endured the pain, recalled carefully, and affirmed.

"Konoha ninjas aren't trying to be funny, and that little red flower isn't comical either.

That is to prevent this monster from killing the wrong people after getting drunk!"

Haneda Kaito felt his hands and feet turn slightly cold at this moment.

Ridiculous that they were mocking the Konoha people there for sticking little red flowers on themselves.

It turns out, that is a life-saving talisman!

"Kisame, I have sensory abilities. I'll take you to find Konoha people. Only by snatching little red flowers can we possibly survive!"

Haneda Kaito's eyes suddenly burst with intense light; this was the hope for life!

"Li... Little red flower, stuck on the forehead?"

Hearing this, Kisame's mouth twitched repeatedly.

Not because the wound hurt...

He, Kisame, had been treated as a monster since childhood because of his appearance.

He looked extremely like a shark; even his skin was similar to a shark.

Now, he has to stick a brilliant little red flower on a shark's forehead?

Thinking of that image, Kisame felt a bit of stomach ache.

"Kisame, this is the only way to survive. Can face be more important than life?"

Looking at Kisame's appearance, Haneda Kaito, who understood, instantly became anxious.

If they don't find little red flowers, then they can only gamble their lives with Yuyu time and time again!

Where would they get so much good luck to brush past the slashes every time?

"Swish—"

"Rumble!!!"

While Kisame was struggling internally.

A terrifying dark purple light flickered again, and the dark purple light penetrated the earth once more!

"Go!"

Kisame looked at that dark purple furious slash several meters high, shuddered violently, gritted his teeth, and roared.

"Go find little red flowers!"

Kisame didn't want face anymore.

He wanted his life
