章 200: 200. A New Member
After explaining all of the secrets, the Tsuki no Me plan, Akatsuki, and the history of princess Kaguya, Izumi said.
"Think about it, how much do you know about the origins of all the Akatsuki's members? And tell me, do you know Zetsu's origin?"
Kisame and Itachi turned their heads and looked at each other. They both know that Pain and Kanon were from the Amegakure village. Even though they didn't know that Nagato was controlling Pain, Nagato still also came from the Amegakure village. Itachi and Kisame knew Orochimaru, Sasori, Deidara, Kakuzu, and Hidan's origin. However, the two of them did not know about Zetsu at all.
If what Izumi had said about the origin of Black Zetsu was true, then it could be said that he was too patient to even wait for 1000 years just to resurrect his creator.
Then, Itachi asked.
"Let's assume that what you've said is true. How did you know about all of him even when he reforged the stone monument in my clan before my clan was founded?"
Izumi turned to Itachi.
"It's pretty troublesome to explain. But, if Kisame agrees to join, he will know everything. Zetsu's history, your Mangekyō Sharingan, and even how the ten-tailed beast split into nine. I have complete information regarding this world. Else, how could I know 100% of your abilities?"
What Izumi said was pretty doubtful. Nevertheless, it was true Izumi knew all of Itachi and Kisame's abilities.
But, there was something that intrigued Itachi.
"You said you would invite Kisame to join you. That means I will still be your prisoner even if he joins?"
"How can that be? Not inviting you doesn't mean that you're not one of us. It is an exclusive position. I decided to choose Kisame over you for the exclusive position as a member."
Then, Izumi explained that there were only 10 core members including Kisame. Izumi told Kisame, as a core member, he could get the reward of learning various techniques that might be foreign to him. On condition, he must complete the mission. The reason Izumi knew everything about this world was because of the information he had gotten through certain means, but it was only accessible to members of the chat group.
After explaining all that, Kisame apparently expressed his desire to join because he wanted to know the truth about the shinobi world and the reward Izumi mentioned.
Kisame actually wasn't as bad as he looked. He had just hated the fact that the Kirigakure village betrayed his trust. He went as far as to kill his comrades just to prevent the information about the Kirigakure village from being leaked out.
Although it sounded cruel, in a warring state, what Kisame had done showed that he was loyal to his village. Though he was merciless against the enemy, he was friendly toward the people he called friends. Just like his current partner, Itachi.
At that time Kisame actually wanted to kill himself due to how strong Izumi was, and arguably far superior due to the water release Jutsu, and physical attacks were not effective against him.
However, after hearing that Obito's plan was a lie and just wishful thinking, his thoughts changed. He felt that Izumi's words were 85% true after Izumi told him almost everything about the Tsuki no Me plan. Moreover, although Itachi seemed to gamble, at least he trusted Izumi. That was the reason why Kisame decided to join.
"Tsuki no Me, huh?" Kisame muttered.
The Tsuki no Me plan. As the name implied, it was a plan to project the eye on the moon. The eye wasn't just an ordinary eye, but it was the highest level Dōjutsu, the only eye technique classified as Kekkei Mōra, the Rinne Sharingan. The moon would be turned into a red eye with rippling patterns and nine tomoes.
And when it was successfully projected on the moon, it would entrap all of the people in the world in the infinite dream. In essence, infinite illusion.
Meanwhile.
"Nice. With this, things are gonna get more interesting." Izumi muttered after Kisame agreed to join.
At that moment, Itachi asked.
"By the way, where are we?"
Kisame was curious as well. So he turned his head toward Izumi.
"A little island quite far from the fire country." Izumi replied.
But, what he said shocked them.
"An Island?" Both of them exclaimed at the same time.
"That's right. I found it recently."
Itachi looked at Izumi, then said.
"Oh right. So that's how it is. Now I remember. Hiraishin no Jutsu. It was a Jutsu developed by the Fourth Hokage, right? But, how can you…"
"The fourth Hokage? The yellow flash?" Kisame responded. And then, Itachi nodded.
"Yeah. But that Jutsu is classified as space-time Ninjutsu. It is too hard to learn."
Izumi smiled.
"Well, you can say that I'm well-versed in space-time Ninjutsu. By the way, this is for you, Kisame."
Izumi threw a phone that suddenly appeared in his hand. Kisame caught it and examined it. Wondering what item Izumi gave him.
"It is called a phone. I'll tell you later how to use it. Anyway, that cell phone indicates you've officially become our member."
"You can't tell me now?"
"Whenever the mission is going on, most of its functions are inactive. And coincidentally, our mission in this world is still going on." Izumi explained briefly.
But, there was something that intrigued Kisame.
"This world?"
"Ah, right. I haven't told you yet. We're not people from this world."
"What the heck."
Naturally, they couldn't believe what Izumi said. And then, Izumi explained about the chat group, the members' worlds, the mission, and so on.
"It was too absurd."
"Wasn't my power absurd as well?"
Then, Izumi used his Devil Fruit power to change his body to become intangible. And then, he used magic, and something else that shouldn't be in the shinobi world. Little by little, Kisame and Itachi started to believe.
At that moment, he recalled something.
"Anyway, Itachi. Since Kisame has already joined, I might as well tell you that there might be a cure for your disease. What do you think?"
Both Itachi and Kisame were stunned. And Kisame responded after a moment.
"Well, isn't that good, Itachi-san?" Kisame wasn't unfamiliar with Itachi's disease. And he also hoped that Itachi could find the cure. But Itachi shook his head.
"There's no need. Just like what I've said previously. I lived my life tormented by guilt. And my only desire is to be killed by my little brother."
Kisame felt disappointed by Itachi's reply. To be honest, Kisame understood how Itachi felt because their experiences were almost the same. The difference was that Itachi had a younger brother, while Kisame didn't.
"It would be good if I had a little brother as well." Kisame said inwardly.
Izumi also pondered. It would be good if Itachi was willing to stay alive just like how he resisted his disease and stayed alive until Sasuke was strong enough to kill him. And he did resist that with just his willpower. Maybe, Izumi should find a way to make Itachi willing to live longer.

Since Izumi had no time to replenish his energy by cooking and eating, he was forced to swallow the salt water to replenish his energy before he went back to the previous town where he fought with Itachi and Kisame.
"Fuuh. As expected, teleporting other people with this Jutsu drains so much energy." Izumi muttered.
He appeared with Rori and went to look for Jiraiya to talk to.
He saw the town was a mess due to a gigantic water doom that turned into a tsunami.
There were some ninjas from Konohagakure who took care of the residents. But, Izumi paid no heed and went in a certain direction.
Not long after, he met Jiraiya and Naruto.
Jiraiya narrowed his eyes while asking.
"Why are you here?"
Izumi sneered.
"Hey, hey, what's with that expression, old pervert? It was fortunate enough that I arrived in time to keep Naruto away from the Akatsuki members. But you… you were rather playing with a woman than keep your eyes on Naruto."
Jiraiya's face reddened. He felt so embarrassed about that. But, he still replied.
"T-there is no way. I know that they wanted to trick me with a woman. But that was also my plan to lure them."
Naruto glanced at Jiraiya. Then he pointed his index finger at him.
"You perverted hermit! I can't believe you were deceived so easily." And then, he turned to Izumi. "But, Izumi-san. What do you mean to keep me away from the Akatsuki members? Are they members of Akatsuki? Why do they sound like they're after me?"
Izumi didn't give an immediate answer. Izumi turned to Jiraiya.
"Old pervert, you haven't told him that yet?"
"Don't call me an old pervert! I'm Jiraiya!"
"Hey, perverted hermit. What did Izumi mean?" Naruto asked in wonder.
Jiraiya sighed and then began to tell him that Akatsuki wasn't exactly after Naruto, but something in his body Instead.
Naruto shuddered. He thought that since Akatsuki wanted something inside his body, it meant Akatsuki was up to something no good.
"How about them?" Jiraiya asked. And what he meant was naturally Itachi and Kisame.
"They're done for!" Izumi gave a short reply.
Jiraiya widened his eyes. He seemed not to believe it. But, he thought it would be better if Izumi handed them over…
"If I handed them over to the interrogation team of Konohagakure? Hahaha. Do you think Akatsuki have no measures to keep their secrets?"
Jiraiya was dumbfounded that Izumi seemed to know what he was thinking.
"Anyway, you can ask Kakashi about Akatsuki. He is someone I trust for this information. Unlike you who seems to doubt everything I say."
Izumi took out his tablet screen from the storage space, he used that thing for a few moments, then his head turned to Rori. "I found his location! Let's meet up with everyone!"
After he said that to Rori. He looked at Naruto.
"Naruto. Just remember that your Shadow Clone Technique will get you stronger! Every time you train, you should use that Jutsu. You will be stronger in no time if you follow my idea."
Naruto nodded.
"I know. But why are you saying that?"
"We're going to go back to where we should be."
"Go back to your village?"
"Nope. We're going to explore the world through the sea."
"Woah, that seems exciting."
Naruto seemed interested in exploring the world. But he knew he was too weak after he saw Izumi's fight from afar. And his dream was to become a Hokage. So, he had no time to explore the world.
Izumi took out something from his storage space, then threw it at Jiraiya.
"This is a limited edition book."
Seeing the book that Izumi gave, Jiraiya's expression changed. His face was flushed, his nose was bloated, and his mouth was grinning pervertedly. What Izumi gave him was a book that was none other than a porn magazine. Well, even though the limited edition he said was bullshit.
And he also left a message on the last page since Izumi was sure that Jiraiya would finish that magazine in no time.
Jiraiya, who was distracted, didn't even sense Izumi put a Jutsu formula on his back. Then, he left with Rori using the teleportation Jutsu.
