[ Dishonorable combat is part and parcel of a shinobi's life. Subterfuge is an essential skill, and things like traps, poisons, and hidden weapons are commonplace. Kisame longs for a world free of lies; however, he'll use any means necessary to create it, including every dirty trick at his disposal.

This stranger seems like quite the idealist. Yet Kisame continues to smile, affable as ever. ]

Do you think so? It seems like it could make a victory mean more… If they exhaust every technique they have and you still win, there's no question that you're stronger, is there?

[ Not that it matters to Kisame whether or not his enemies use every technique they possess. He doesn't owe them a fair fight. ]
