After Kisame finished sealing the corpse, he turned his head. He was surprised when he saw Fuguki. He stood up, bowed his head, and said to Fuguki respectfully, "Fuguki-sama, I didn't know you would be coming. Please forgive my rudeness."
Fuguki snorted in amusement upon hearing what Kisame just said and he told Kisame, "relax Kisame I am only here to keep an eye on my apprentice and Juzo's apprentice."
Kisame was surprised when he heard this, then he remembered in the last clan meeting the head of his clan said that Juzo accepted Zabuza as his apprentice and Fuguki accepted Yukina as his apprentice.
Kisame chuckled to himself and thought, "It is surprising that the beast of the Hidden Mist Village has a soft side. Things are really getting interesting."
Kisame then noticed that Kaito Yuki was missing. He turned to Yukina and asked with amusement, "Girl, what happened to that genin from the Yuki clan?"
When Yukina heard this, she rolled her eyes and replied to Kisame, "I didn't kill him, Kisame senpai; he was killed when he was fighting against the enemy shinobi."
Kisame chuckled when he heard this and nodded his head. He then addressed his subordinates, saying, "Alright, listen up. There is a civilian village nearby. We will disguise ourselves as civilians, and we will rest there for today."
Zabuza was surprised by this and asked Kisame, "Why do we need to rest? We could keep charging to that village and destroy its walls. That way we will finish our mission early."
Kisame scoffed when he heard this. He sighed and then asked Zabuza, "Do you have a brain in that skull of yours?"
Yukina and Ameyuri giggled when they heard this and Zabuza's eyes twitched in annoyance at Kisame's comment.
Kisame sighed again and began explaining his reasoning to Zabuza: "Listen up, kid. We are shinobi. When we go on a mission, we need to always be in top form and be prepared for the unexpected."
"When the Sea Spirit Village notices that their shinobi are taking too long to return, they will send a search party and reinforcement."
"Our best option right now is to rest, recover, and maintain a low profile before continuing our mission."
Yukina nodded her head in agreement. She remembered what Fuguki said to her before participating in this mission—that preparation is the most important part of being a shinobi—and she agreed with him.
Charging forward now will be an idiotic decision.
Kisame nodded his head in satisfaction when he saw all the genins were taking his words seriously.
He then ordered the genins, "Alright, everyone, follow me."
Kisame and the genins then started traveling to a civilian village nearby to rest for the day.

Four days later
With Kisame
Kisame and his team traveled to the Sea Spirit Village while using the transformation jutsu to disguise themselves as shinobi of the Sea Spirit Village.
When they arrived at the Sea Spirit Village, Kisame handed each of the genin a scroll and then he said to them, "Listen up. These storage scrolls contain a large number of explosive tags. Your task is to plant these explosive tags on the right side of the wall. The other teams are responsible for the other sides of the wall. Now get to work."
Yukina and the other genins nodded their heads obediently. They quickly unsealed the explosive tags from the scrolls and started implanting the explosive tags on the wall.
Kisame walked towards the shore, bit his thumb, and started executing a series of hand seals.
After he finished executing the hand seal sequence, he slapped his palm on the surface of the sea.
Summoning Jutsu
"PUFF."
A dark black, medium-sized shark appeared from the white puff of smoke.
The shark looked at Kisame respectfully and said to Kisame, "Kisame-sama, how can I serve you?"
"I want to know where the third regiment's main forces are right now and I also want to know the position of Rangetsu and Senma teams, Sharkparo." Kisame orders the shark.
Sharkparo nodded its head and said to Kisame, "Please wait Kisame-sama It will not take long."
Kisame nodded his head to the shark and it quickly dove under the sea to check on the third regiment's main force and the other two teams.
After 5 minutes, Sharkparo resurfaced and started reporting to Kisame, "Kisame-sama, the third regiment ship is docked at an Isolated Island not far from here; it will only take them 20 minutes to arrive here."
Kisame nodded his head in satisfaction and Sharkparo continued, "The other two teams just arrived and they started implanting the explosive tags on the wall."
When Kisame heard this, he smirked in excitement and ordered Sharkparo, "Go and tell Mei to start sailing and tell Senma and Rangetsu to activate the explosive tags in 20 minutes."
Sharkparo nodded its head and said to Kisame, "As you wish, Kisame-sama."
Sharkparo then quickly dove into the sea again to send Kisame's message to Mei and the others.

At the same time
In the Hidden Mist Village
In the Torture and Interrogation Department
The third Mizukage entered the Torture and Interrogation Department. He narrowed his eyes at Zanshi and asked, "So how are things going with your new pet?"
Zanshi shook his head and answered the Third Mizukage, "She's too stubborn; we tortured her with every possible method. We even stripped her naked and humilated her but even after all this, she didn't spill out the secrets of the Uzumaki clan or the whereabouts of the Uzumaki clan scrolls."
The Third Mizukage narrowed his eyes in anger and yelled at Zanshi , "Then why didn't you use the mind reader jutsu on her?"
Zanshi sighed and replied to the Third Mizukage, "Mizukage-sama, the mind reader jutsu is an incomplete jutsu; it was created by accident by Moji-sama when he tried to recreate Konoha's Yamanaka clan jutsu. We can use this jutsu on the dead to read their memories but if we use it on those who are alive, we will break their minds."
"Moji-sama theorizes that in order to read the memories of living people by using the mind reader jutsu, the user of this jutsu needs to have a high proficiency in the Yin release."
The Third Mizukage snorted when he heard this and said to Zanshi, "It doesn't matter to me if her mind is broken or not; she will be our breeding tool to revive the Uzumaki clan in the Hidden Mist Village but before we use her as a breeding tool, we need to get all the Uzumaki clan secrets from her, along with the location of the Uzumaki clan scrolls ."
Zanshi nodded his head in understanding, and he said to the Third Mizukage respectfully, "I understand, Mizukage-sama. I will go and execute the mind-reader jutsu on her now."
The Third Muzikage nodded his head in satisfaction and instructed Zanshi, "Good, I will wait for your good news in my office."
After the Third Mizukage said this, he turned around and walked back to his office.

With Kisame
20 minutes had passed and Kisame could see the third regiment ship sailing towards the Sea Spirit Village.
Kisame, along with Rangetsu and Senma, gave a bloodthirsty smirk when they saw the third regiment ship sailing towards the Sea Spirit Village.
Kisame and the other two captains turned their heads to their subordinates and ordered at the same time, "Activate the explosive tags now."
Yukina, along with all the genins, executed the ram hand seal after hearing the order.
In the next moment all the explosive tags started to ignite, and then they all exploded.
"BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM."
The wall that surrounded the Sea Spirit Village exploded from all directions and then it turned into small rubble.
All the shinobi and the civilians in the Sea Spirit Village widened their eyes in shock and fright when they saw the wall that protected their village crumble into rubble.
Suddenly all the Sea Spirit Village Shinobi and civilians saw the third regiment ship docked on the shore.
Mei, along with the third regiment forces, disembarked the ship and started walking calmly to the Sea Spirit Village.
Kisame, along with Senma and Rangetsu, walked calmly towards Mei, followed by the genins after they all dispelled their transformation jutsu to join the third regiment forces in the invasion.
Mei then said loudly to the Sea Spirit Village Shinobi, "you all have two options Join the Hidden Mist Village or die here. You all better choose wisely because it is meaningless to fight against us; we are way too strong for you."
When the Sea Spirit Village Shinobi heard Mei's words, they became enraged.
They grabbed kunais and shurikens from their pouch and then they started aiming them at Yukina and her comrades.
Yukina gave a wide smirk full of excitement, like a predator, when she saw the kunais and shurikens flying towards her and her comrades.
She then said to herself, "This is going to be fun."
