Kisame while guarding the Cypher Division-nin.
Before becoming known as a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, Kisame was assigned to the Cypher Division by his superior, Fuguki Suikazan to guard them.[3] While resting, the team was cornered by Ibiki Morino's platoon during a mission. Kisame chose to kill his team-mates in order to prevent any information from being leaked out.
Kisame kills Fuguki and takes Samehada.
He later killed his master when he realised that he was selling information as well, taking control of Samehada for himself and also replacing him as one of the Seven Swordsmen. Approached by the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura,
who commended him for his act of loyalty to Kirigakure, Kisame rebuked
him and revealed his disillusion. He said he no longer believed he
really was loyal to the village while he was killing his fellow Kiri
ninja, calling his life of betrayal and murder nothing but a "living
lie". "Madara Uchiha" then revealed himself as the one controlling Yagura from the shadows, intimating to Kisame his Eye of the Moon Plan.
Kisame was at first sceptical of Madara's identity and thought his plan
was insane, before he realised he wanted to experience this "world of
truth", paving his way into becoming one of the first and most loyal
members of Akatsuki.[4]
While in Kiri, Kisame is given the title of "Monster of the Hidden Mist". He is also known to have formed a connection to Suigetsu Hōzuki and Mangetsu Hōzuki. His former country, the Land of Water, sought him out for plotting to overthrow its government and being involved in numerous assassinations, including that of a daimyō of an unknown country.[5] As a member of Akatsuki, he was partnered with Itachi Uchiha.
Though they initially greeted each other with hostility, they became
good partners and shared a common bond of having betrayed the people
closest to them.
Kisame slaughters his team-mates in order to protect important codes.
Kisame loved to fight. However, he was usually unable to finish his
battles, being paired with Itachi who only fights when necessary. When
this happens, he had been known to inform his opponents that they "don't
know how lucky they are." Like other characters who have trained to be
one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Kisame will not hesitate to mutilate
his opponents, as seen when he suggested cutting off Naruto's legs to make him easier to carry, and to prevent the latter from escaping on foot.[6]
Despite his aggressive nature, Kisame was very perceptive in battle. He
is seemingly aware of any potential danger to his person and can
immediately react to it. He is also shown to be analytical, able to
quickly deduce the basics behind an opponent's technique.
Kisame was one of the few members of Akatsuki that got along well
with his partner. He was very loyal to Itachi, not only willing to take
any commands he was given without question but always asks Itachi for
permission to take action proven when he asked Itachi for permission to
kill Asuma who was bothering him, and constantly looked out for his
well-being. For instance, after Itachi used Tsukuyomi on Kakashi, Kisame
warned that Itachi risked overusing his eyes which is dangerous as well
as telling Itachi he would ruin his health when he walked into a rain
rather than stay in the cave they were staying in until the rain had
passed shortly after capturing Rōshi. He was also very respectful to
Itachi, as he always called him "Itachi-san". Although Kisame does have
his pride, he acknowledged Itachi as the stronger of the duo, evident by
Kisame saying to Itachi that he himself couldn't defeat Jiraiya, but
stated his certainty that Itachi could go one-on-one with the Sannin.
Despite his belief that Itachi was stronger than he was, when the two
men were first partnered, he told Itachi to be careful of him. Kisame
considered Itachi such a good friend, that even in his last moments, he
thought about Itachi. In the anime, upon hearing of Itachi's death, he
appeared somewhat saddened. Kisame also has a deep loathing for Might Guy since their first encounter, and Guy seemed to continue to agitate him by not remembering who Kisame was when they met again.[7]
Throughout his entire life, Kisame believes that everything was a lie. While his mission during his time in the Cypher Division
was to protect his comrades, Kisame believed protecting information was
far more important than protecting lives. This prevented him from
forming bonds with his fellow shinobi, which was better for him when he
was required to slaughter them in order to protect the codes of his
village; he even executed his own master for selling the village's
secrets out. This became his philosophy, and he lived by it strictly. When Aoba Yamashiro was reading his mind,
Kisame forced himself into consciousness by biting his own tongue to
prevent Aoba from extracting any important information, and then,
knowing that escape is impossible, summoned sharks to allow them to devour him, effectively committing suicide. Kisame's deepest wish was to experience Tobi's "world of truth".
Kisame.
Kisame was a very tall and fairly muscled shinobi. He had a
distinctive shark-like appearance, complete with pale blue-grey
skintone, small, round white eyes, gill-like facial markings under his
eyes, gills on his shoulders and sharp triangular teeth, much like the
other members of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist.
He also styled his dull blue hair in the form of a shark fin. Even his
name, Kisame (鬼鮫), means "Demon Shark". As a member of Akatsuki, he also
wore dark purple nail polish. During his time as a Kirigakure shinobi, he sported the standard outfit of the village, complete with a flak jacket and a forehead protector.
Later, he donned what appears to be the standard attire of the Seven
Swordsmen which consists of: a dark sleeveless shirt paired with
matching pants, provided with a waist guard, and striped arm and
leg-warmers typical of his village. He also switched to a modified
version of Kirigakure's forehead protector, which covered his ears as
well. He kept this very same attire, under his Akatsuki cloak, even
after defecting from the village, with the only differences being his
leg-warmers, which were substituted by the organisation's standard ones;
though later on, he also removed the shirt from its attire, remaining
bare-chested. He wore his Akatsuki ring on his left ring finger, bearing
the kanji for South (南, nan) which was yellow in colour,
Kisame was a powerful member of Akatsuki who successfully captured the Four-Tails' jinchūrikiRōshi
by himself, despite noting his target's exceptional powers. Though a
difficult task, by his own admission, Kisame merely complained that he
was "a bit tired".[8] He also claimed that he was the best in the Akatsuki at capturing targets alive as seen when he was able to capture Rōshi alive leaving him only "on the brink of death". As a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, Kisame is one of the most powerful shinobi ever produced within Kirigakure; in fact, he was able to kill his former master,
who is a member of the Seven Swordsmen generation said to be the
strongest in the history of the village, and despite Samehada being in
the opponent's hands at the time. He was also able to force Might Guy,
one of Konoha's top shinobi, to open six of the Eight Gates at only 30% chakra[9] and seven gates against the real Kisame.[10]
Kisame has also shown a keen intellect in battle, an example of which
is deducing the nature and tactics of Killer B's attack on their first
encounter.
Kisame with an unbandaged Samehada.
Kisame was a powerful swordsman,
and favoured the use of brute strength and melee fighting in battle.
Before killing his master, Kisame was wielding a normal katana, with
which he was proficient enough to kill all of his comrades on one
mission. Kisame's signature weapon is called Samehada,
a sentient, scale-covered sword, that shaves flesh instead of cutting
it. Samehada is also capable of detecting and absorbing chakra. However,
it seems to be unable to automatically absorb ambient chakra, judging
by the fact that all instances in which it has used the ability have
either been when the opponent had a visible aura around them or when
direct physical contact had already been established.[11][12]
When Samehada absorbs chakra, its scales grow and it slowly begins to
unwrap itself, revealing a mouth with several rows of shark-like teeth.
Kisame could heal and replenish his chakra by temporarily fusing
with Samehada. He could also fuse fully to further increase his power,
and expanding upon his shark-like appearance. When fused with Samehada,
he gains the ability to breathe underwater using gills which form on his
neck. While using his Water Prison Shark Dance Technique,
he could take full advantage of that ability by drowning his opponents
while remaining unharmed. In this form he can sense other people's
chakra, and absorb it just by touching the foe with any part of his
body. He can also hide within Samehada, which he states is flawless due
to the fact that he and Samehada have almost identical chakra, to the
extent that not even sensors can detect him.
Only Kisame was able to wield Samehada; if anyone besides him
tries to pick it up, spikes protrude from its handle, and it returns to
Kisame's side. Samehada's loyalty seems to be due to the sword's liking
of Kisame's chakra. If it finds a ninja with better chakra, it may
betray it's owner in favor of the new ninja, as demonstrated when
Samehada protected Killer B from Kisame's attempt to slash off his legs.[13] Despite its wavering loyalty, Kisame was capable of wielding Samehada against its will.[14]Chōjūrō describes the Samehada as the most terrifying sword of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.[15]
Kisame breaks free of the stocks.
Unlike his partner Itachi, Kisame preferred direct physical combat,
with which he has repeatedly been shown to be very proficient and
dangerous. Generally while fighting, he combines strong taijutsu strikes
with powerful slashes from Samehada. He has been seen displaying
astonishing raw speed and immense physical strength, which combined with
his high taijutsu prowess allows him to directly overpower most
opponents, as shown when he overpowered Might Guy, a powerful taijutsu
master, during their battle. A single punch from Kisame was able to
smash Might Guy to the bottom of the lake he had created and displace the water around the area. He also managed to overpower another skilled melee-weapon user, Asuma Sarutobi, by using only the tip of Samehada (wielded with one hand), against Asuma's two blades, which he held overhead using his body as extra support.[16] Kisame managed to survive what was usually a one-hit instant kill technique from Guy, and retained enough strength to break free of his restraints even though Yamato was suppressing his chakra, showing not just powerful raw strength, but also great endurance.
Kisame had an unusually large amount of chakra, even by Akatsuki standards.[17]Karin, upon sensing Kisame, stated she had never seen so much chakra in one place.[18] Even when he fought at 30% power in one instance,[19] Neji compared his chakra supply to that of Naruto.[20]Chōjūrō claims that Kisame is a "Tailed Beast without a Tail" (尾を持たない尾獣, O o Motanai Bijū; English TV "Tailless Tailed Beast"), due to his superhuman chakra level and combination with Samehada.[21]
Even without Samehada, Kisame has been shown to absorb chakra while he is in a water source. Aoba Yamashiro discovered it when he used his Secret Technique Stone Needles in an attempt to paralyse Kisame, who instead just sucked the chakra through the threads and exhausted him.[22] He can even steal chakra from Samehada by simply grabbing onto it.[23]
Kisame travelling inside a water shark.
Kisame's shark-like attributes carry over into his battles, for he even shapes his Water Release attacks into sharks. He is also able to alter the entire battlefield by using his Water Release: Exploding Water Colliding Wave to create a large volume of water to give him the field advantage, and to use for attacks.[24] Against stronger opponents, he increases his field advantage even further by creating a giant dome of water around himself, forcing his opponents to battle him underwater. He was able to make many sharks that overwhelmed Might Guy's Morning Peacock, producing more than all the blows Guy could unleash.[25] Using Earth element, Kisame can use Earth Release: Subterranean Voyage to travel under the earth, with the tip of his sword, Samehada, jutting out making him look like a shark swimming towards his prey.
In keeping with his shark theme, Kisame had shown the ability to summon sharks for both battle and message sending purposes,[26] and can combine the one summoned shark with the Water Release: A Thousand Feeding Sharks as a way to conceal the messenger to let it get away.[27]
Itachi and Kisame's début.
Kisame accompanied Itachi to Konoha to help kidnap Naruto Uzumaki. After the two gained attention due to their unusual clothing, they were stopped by Asuma Sarutobi and Kurenai Yūhi. Asuma and Kurenai found themselves outmatched, but Kakashi
arrived to help balance the odds. Asuma was able to distract Kisame
while Itachi fought Kakashi. He waited patiently for Itachi's victory,
but before Itachi delivered the final blow, Kakashi remembered Jiraiya's
warning and recognised the duo as members of Akatsuki from their black
cloaks. Itachi changed his mind and ordered Kisame to kidnap Kakashi and
kill Asuma and Kurenai. Before he could do so, however, Might Guy
showed up and kicked an attacking Kisame in the face. Following Guy's
arrival, Itachi ordered Kisame to retreat, not wanting to start a
large-scale battle. Kisame seemed quite annoyed with Itachi's idea, as
he desperately wanted to fight the Konoha shinobi.

Itachi and Kisame then continued to hunt Naruto, finding him under the protection of Jiraiya.
After Itachi hypnotised a woman to distract Jiraiya and leave Naruto
alone, Kisame and Itachi confronted Naruto in a hotel hallway. Kisame
considered cutting off Naruto's legs so he could not run away, though Sasuke, Itachi's younger brother, showed up and drew their attention from Naruto. When Naruto attempted to fight, Kisame used Samehada
to absorb all of Naruto's chakra. Kisame then attempted to cut off
Naruto's arms so he wouldn't put up a fight. Before he could do this,
however, Jiraiya arrived, and had the toadGama defend Naruto. Following the encounter, Kisame and Itachi were driven off by Jiraiya's Summoning: Toad Mouth Bind, failing in capturing Naruto.
Kisame attacking Team Guy.
While Akatsuki extracted the One-Tailed Shukaku from Gaara's body, they learned that Team Guy
was nearing their location. Remembering his last encounter with Guy,
Kisame volunteered to keep them occupied while the sealing was
completed. Pain used the Shapeshifting Technique
to make a duplicate of Kisame's body that would be remotely controlled
by Kisame. The clone located and confronted Team Guy, but was
disappointed that Guy didn't remember him. He converts the surrounding
desert into a lake to give him a battlefield advantage and attacks Guy.
Guy's students defend him, prompting Kisame to make water clones that then trap them with the Water Prison Technique.
Kisame trapping Neji, Lee, and Tenten.
Guy, meanwhile, manages to take Samehada from him and tries to use it
against Kisame, but Samehada does not allow it and returns to Kisame.
Kisame proceeds to launch a volley of attacks at Guy, forcing Guy to
open the sixth gate. Doing so forces away the surrounding water and allows Guy to strike Kisame with the Morning Peacock.
The clone is killed. Kisame voices his regret to Itachi that the clone
had only 30% of his chakra and thus was not as powerful as the real
Kisame was.
Kisame intercepting Hebi.
Later, Kisame successfully managed to capture the jinchūriki of the Four-Tails, his assigned tailed beast, without a scratch. During the following Akatsuki meeting to seal the Four-Tails, Kisame and Itachi were informed of Hebi's
formation, with Sasuke as its leader. They are soon afterwards told
that Sasuke has been killed, and Kisame tries to comfort Itachi for
finally being the last Uchiha.
Itachi replies that Sasuke is not dead. While making plans to meet with
Sasuke, Itachi instructs Kisame to stand guard outside the Uchiha Hideout and to let only Sasuke through. After Sasuke left the rest of Hebi, Suigetsu,
being an old acquaintance of Kisame, exchanged words with him, and then
the two started fighting, with Suigetsu wanting to claim Samehada as
his own. It was later revealed that Zetsu had stopped the fight.
Following Itachi's death, Kisame is confronted by Tobi, who revealed his true identity. Recognising him and addressing him as the "Mizukage"
and Madara, Kisame commented that he felt a lot better knowing that he
was the one who was pulling the strings. Tobi apologises for leaving
Kisame the last member of Akatsuki to know his identity when in fact he
is closest to Kisame. Kisame later assisted with the sealing of the Eight-Tails captured by Sasuke. When this turns out to be a fake, Kisame notes that the Eight-Tails' host, Killer B, fooled Sasuke.[28]
Kisame clashes with Sabu and Killer B.
Because of Sasuke's failure, Tobi
ordered Kisame to capture the Eight-Tails by himself. Kisame used
Samehada to find Killer B, being drawn to B's immense chakra. When he
arrived at their location, Kisame was immediately attacked by Ponta, who he quickly defeated. B and Sabu then join forces, B even entering a four-tailed form.
Kisame fended them both off and absorbed B's chakra cloak. He then
removed the bandages from Samehada, noting that it liked the "taste" of
B's chakra.
Kisame fused with Samehada.
Killer B entered a version 2 form and used his Lariat
to destroy Kisame's entire midsection. Kisame fused with Samehada to
heal his injuries, becoming a monstrous shark-like creature. After
trapping Killer B, Sabu, and Ponta inside a giant, movable dome of water,
he continued his assault on Killer B. B was forced to throw Sabu and
Ponta from the dome to save them from drowning, allowing Kisame to
overpower him. He dissipated the dome and moved in to finish the job,
but was stopped by Samehada, who protected B and gave him some chakra.
He kicked Samehada away and prepared to try again with one of B's own
swords.
"Kisame" being decapitated.
Using the chakra he got from Samehada, B attacked Kisame. Kisame
barely evaded the attack and tried to cut off B's legs, but was stopped
by the arrival of B's brother: the Fourth Raikage,
and his two bodyguards. They thank Kisame for creating the water dome,
as it can be seen from far away and allowed them to locate B. Samehada
then gives some chakra to B and he and the Raikage join forces against
Kisame. Kisame attempts to counter with Water Release: Great Shark Bullet Technique, but before he could finish the technique he was decapitated by their Double Lariat. With his last breath, he stated with a grin that their lightning-quick speed was simply too fast for him.
The real Kisame inside Samehada.Zetsu later revealed that the decapitated body was one of his clones,
which switched with Kisame when B obscured the water dome with his ink,
and that the real Kisame was hiding inside Samehada in order to
infiltrate Kumogakure.
The sword itself was taken by Killer B, who planned to use it as his
new weapon. While B attended but does not pay attention in a meeting of
tactics for the approaching Fourth Shinobi World War, Kisame took notes on the village's plans and military strength.
Having been discovered, Kisame attempts to escape.
To protect them from Akatsuki, B and Naruto Uzumaki were sent to the island in the Land of Lightning.
After B helped Naruto to tame the Nine-Tails, Naruto was able to sense
Kisame's hatred within Samehada, despite him and Samehada's identical
chakra. Discovered and outnumbered, Kisame took Samehada and tried to
escape, but Naruto used the new speed granted to him by the Nine-Tails
to stop him. Naruto was so fast, in fact, that his foot got stuck in a
wall, allowing Kisame to continue his bid for freedom.
Guy attacks Kisame.
As soon as he exited the Falls of Truth
he ran into and was attacked by Might Guy, who believed Kisame was his
inner self. Although Guy realised Kisame was not his inner self, he
still didn't remember him, instead believing him to be a blowfish.
Samehada abandoned Kisame and returned to Killer B. Kisame stole some
chakra from the both of them to revitalise him after being within
Samehada for so long. Aoba Yamashiro tried to neutralise him with Secret Technique: Stone Needles,
but this only enabled Kisame to absorb his chakra as well. Kisame then
swam away and tried to make it off the island, and when he reached the
shoreline, Kisame summoned a shark and gave it a scroll filled with the information he had gathered.
Kisame vs. Guy.
Guy tracked him down and, seeing what Kisame was doing, tried to stop the shark. Kisame then used Water Release: Thousand Feeding Sharks to conceal it and overwhelm Guy. When Guy's Morning Peacock
couldn't destroy all of the sharks, he opened the seventh chakra gate,
blocking the sharks' route. To get rid of Guy, Kisame used Water Release: Great Shark Bullet Technique, and Guy countered with his Daytime Tiger.
Although the Great Shark Bullet grows stronger when used against
chakra-based attacks, Daytime Tiger was composed of "youthful" air
pressure. It overpowered and defeated Kisame, as well as destroyed all
of the remaining sharks.
Though defeated, Kisame was annoyed that Guy still could not
remember him and tried to continue fighting, but was knocked unconscious
by Guy. Yamato restrained Kisame to allow Aoba to read his mind
in order to gather intelligence on Akatsuki. When Aoba came across
memories of Tobi's face and his promises of ending the "world of lies",
Kisame bit his own tongue to force himself awake and broke free of his
restraints. The Kumo and Konoha-nin tried to subdue him, but Kisame
trapped himself with the Water Prison Technique.
Kisame commits suicide to protect Akatsuki's secrets.
Before he was completely immobilised, he summoned three sharks and
allowed them to devour him. Within his final moments he remembered his
first meeting with Itachi and realised that he was not as terrible as he
once thought, as he was willing to give his life to protect the cause
he believed in and died with a smile on his face.
Seeing how far Kisame was willing to go for his comrades, Guy
gained new respect for his adversary and vowed to always remember him.
He and the others then attempted to read the scroll that Kisame tried so
hard to send, but found that it was booby-trapped; they were each
caught in a Water Prison with a shark. Another shark took the scroll and
swam away with it, which eventually found its way to Zetsu.
