Chapter 187: Chapter 186: Kisame Obtains the Sword
Their goal was a sword. The Imitation Samehada sword that Kisame had requested to be specially made. This sword might not be as powerful as the original Samehada, but it was still a weapon that Kisame desired for his mission. Kisame wanted to ensure that the weapon was ready for use, and this time, they had come to retrieve the sword.
They had been running non-stop for several hours, traversing forest paths filled with trees and some ruins from the old world. Along the way, the atmosphere grew darker and the air felt heavier. The smell of iron and blood mixed with smoke from the burning city in the distance, a sign that they were getting closer to the center of chaos.
Itachi, with his always calm demeanor, looked ahead expressionlessly, while Kisame appeared more enthusiastic.
"Finally, we've arrived," Kisame said in a hoarse voice filled with satisfaction.
"Underground City X 64," Itachi murmured quietly, his eyes sweeping the surroundings.
They stood in front of a large cave located beneath a great mountain. After walking through the city gates guarded by a group of fierce-looking mercenaries, they were asked to show identification. Kisame simply displayed his level 3 mercenary badge, and upon seeing that, the guards quickly became indifferent. They began to enter the labyrinth of the city, where the paths were narrow and winding.
They then faced a city hidden behind forests and mountains. From a distance, dim lights illuminated the narrow streets and dilapidated buildings covered in graffiti and strange symbols, perhaps signs of the various criminal groups that dominated the area.
"I wonder what the sword looks like, whether it's an imitation or not. I hope it can tear flesh like Samehada," Kisame grinned.
"Focus. This may not be the deadliest place, but it's still dangerous. Don't underestimate anyone here," Itachi replied, continuing to walk ahead with steady steps.
People with suspicious looks watched them from the darkness, most of them Abnormals who sensed the deadly aura from these two Akatsuki members, but none were brave enough to challenge them directly.
Finally, they arrived at a rundown building hidden in a corner of the city. An underground weapons workshop, where the sword requested by Kisame was being forged. Kisame opened the creaking wooden door, and inside, a shabby blacksmith was finishing the final touches on a large sword that resembled Samehada.
"Ah, you finally came. Your sword is ready, Kisame," the blacksmith said without looking at them, his voice heavy and hoarse.
Kisame stepped forward eagerly, his eyes shining as he looked at the imitation sword before him.
"Great. I can't wait to try it out," Kisame said as he lifted the sword, feeling its weight in his hands.
"Don't be disappointed if it's not exactly like Samehada; this sword is just an imitation, but I'm sure it's more than enough for your purposes," Itachi reminded him, his gaze remaining vigilant.
Kisame then grinned, genuinely pleased with the result of the sword.
"Haha! Of course, we'll see about that later," Kisame said, then threw a quick glance at the blacksmith, who now looked tired after working on their order.
"This city... is not a friendly place. We should leave quickly before someone tries to take advantage of this opportunity," Itachi warned, his voice low but firm.
"Alright. We have the sword, and now it's time to head back." Kisame nodded in agreement.
Without saying much more, the two of them quickly left the place, returning to the shadow-filled narrow streets, heading out of Underground City X 64 with the new sword in Kisame's hand, ready to face their next mission.
