My Villainous Life Starting with Naruto

Chapter 170 The Dark Side Life Begins with the Captain

"One kilometer, five hundred meters, two hundred meters... Captain, nothing unusual."

The voice of his subordinate came through the radio, and Hyuga Yuto replied lightly, "Stay alert," before continuing to keep an eye on the returning main force.

He wore a cat-face mask, crouched on a tree trunk, dressed in gray armor, with a ninja sword slung over his back—a standard Konoha ANBU uniform.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was very efficient. After the conversation, Yuto Hyuga joined the Anbu that very night and became the captain of the first squad.

The next day, which is now, Hyuga Yuto is leading his subordinates on his first mission as captain – to be responsible for the security of Minato Namikaze's return to the village.

Theoretically speaking, once you join the Anbu and put on a mask, you should be hiding your identity. However, Hyuga Yuto did not need to. Firstly, he was too famous, and his fighting style and the ninjutsu he used were recorded in detail by many villages. Secondly, his right arm was wrapped with black flowing steel, making him highly recognizable and his identity easily exposed.

Moreover, in a month, Hyuga Yuto will become the first head of Konoha's Anbu, wielding great power. As the leader of the killing squad, he will be used to intimidate those inside and outside the village, and the greater his fame, the better.

The ninjas returning from the front lines were surrounded by the villagers of Konoha. They walked into the village with expressions of emotion. Minato Namikaze received the greatest respect and cheers. Kushina Uzumaki, with her half-white hair, sat in the carriage, lifted a corner of the curtain, and looked at Minato Namikaze, who was surrounded by glory, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.

The frontline troops quickly entered, and the village gate became empty again.

Hyuga Yuto jumped down, and his ANBU members gathered around him.

Including himself, the first squad had a total of seventeen people.

"Disperse. Those who have tasks to complete, go and finish them." Hyuga Yuto paused, then gave the order:

"I saw a few people in the village's welcoming party whispering after seeing Kushina Uzumaki, seemingly saying something unpleasant... Try to make them shut up, but be careful not to go too far, since they are all villagers."

The Anbu ninjas accepted the order; this was a trivial matter and there was no need to trouble the Hokage. Hyuga Yuto had the authority to make the decision.

They all left, except for one subordinate who remained in the same spot.

A slight upturn at the corner of Hinata Yuto's mouth beneath his mask:

"Do you have anything to say... Naoto?"

Naoto Hyuga removed his mask and bowed his head deeply:

"Captain, I had no choice in what happened three years ago. I couldn't disobey the orders of Master Shinji and Miss Miko. As a member of the branch family, protecting the main family is a mission etched into my bones..."

"It's alright." Hinata Yuto patted his shoulder, smiling kindly.

"I never took it to heart."

……

Most of the Konoha Anbu's operations are related to assassination and intelligence gathering. They receive separate funding, and their office locations, training grounds, and supply allowances are different from those of ordinary ninjas. The territory of the First Anbu Squad is located below the "Eel House" tavern, which is just across the street from the Hokage Building.

Hyuga Yuto sat behind his desk, carefully reviewing the files and mission records.

The Dark Division has five squads, with a total of just over a hundred people. However, because they are all carrying out sensitive and bloody missions, the squad leaders have a lot of power. Even confidential information such as "the shift change time of the barrier squad" can be found out clearly if you pay close attention.

A series of messages flashed through Hyuga Yuto's mind. He hadn't yet figured out how to lure Hiashi into offering up his corpse, but fortunately, the next outbreak of corruption was in two months, so there was still plenty of time and he didn't need to rush.

Now, he only needs to fulfill his duties as a squad leader and wait for the day he becomes the head of the Dark Division.

Hyuga Yuto was so engrossed in the dark secrets of Konoha that two hours passed in the blink of an eye. He stretched and decided to rest for a while when a knock came at the door. After receiving Hyuga Yuto's permission, a female ANBU member pushed the door open and entered.

She lowered her head and spoke very quickly:

"Captain, something's happened."

There's already trouble on my second day in office...

Hyuga Yuto sighed inwardly and followed the female ANBU out, traveling at a rapid pace.

"My mission, along with Kenichiro's and Hayata's, is to deal with the [tails] following the frontline troops." On the way, the female ANBU began to recount the situation they encountered:

"After Lord Minato entered the village, Kenichiro discovered traces of ninjas from other villages; they were from Kirigakure."

"But at the same time we discovered them, the people of Kirigakure also sensed us. We were no match for them. After the encounter, Kenichiro was captured. I returned to report the news, while Hayata followed the group of Kirigakure members."

"How strong are they?" Hinata Yuto asked.

In Konoha, many Chunin undergo training in the Anbu before being promoted. The members of the First Division are all quite capable, at least not cannon fodder. Yet, one of these three elite squad members was captured alive by Kirigakure... This is a tricky situation.

"Not only do they possess the Corpse Bone Pulse, but they also use a unique Water Release technique, making them far stronger than us."

While exchanging words quickly, Hyuga Yuto's Byakugan spotted Uchiha Shunta in the distance.

"Captain." Hayato slowed down, keeping pace with his teammates:

"Those three Hidden Mist ninjas are about a kilometer ahead. Their combat strength is not to be underestimated, and besides Kaguya and Hozuki, there are other experts as well... Uh, thank you, Captain."

While using Healing Palm Technique to heal Uchiha Shunta's shoulder, Hyuga Yuto looked at the distant enemy.

Logically, with the Anbu members captured, the village's secrets are at risk of being exposed. The best course of action for the First Division would be to inform the Hokage and request support from other divisions.

But now, Hayato and the others have chosen to tell only Hinata Yuto.

—His subordinates trusted his combat abilities as the captain of "Jade Lion" and believed he could handle the situation.

"Hayato, Shiina, don't make a move. Wait for the right moment to take Kenichiro back." Hyuga Yuto whispered, then suddenly accelerated and rushed to the vicinity of the Hidden Mist ninja.

Without further ado, Hyuga Yuto stomped the ground hard, unleashing his monstrous strength. The ground rumbled and shattered, causing the three Hidden Mist Villagers to lose their footing and leap into the air.

Hyuga Yuto stepped on the flying rocks and used the Body Flicker Technique to rush in front of a Hidden Mistman.

Despite carrying the unconscious Kentaro on his back, the Mist Villager moved with lightning speed, his body swaying like a whip. A bone spike emerged and lashed out, striking Hyuga Yuto's chest with a sharp crack.

Corpse Bone Pulse: Dance of the Willow!

"Kill one first..." Hyuga Yuto murmured, reaching out with one hand and naturally gouging out Kaguya Jonin's eyes.

The bone spike struck Hyuga Yuto, but it was limp and powerless. Kaguya Jonin opened her eyes wide, trying to dodge the enemy's finger, but found that her movements were slow and she could no longer control her body.

——Ninja Technique·Chaos Charge!

The instant he approached Kaguya, the Jonin, Hyuga Yuto used the Chaotic Body Strike to disrupt the electrons in the enemy's nervous system.

However, at that moment, a small water ball suddenly appeared in Bai Yan's field of vision.

Hinata Yuto sensed danger and, without hesitation, raised his right arm, which was wrapped in Ryuun Steel.

boom!

Although the water sphere was small, its weight and hardness were ridiculously high. Hyuga Yuto was bounced away, and his fingers grazed Kaguya Jonin's eyebrows, leaving deep bloody marks, but he failed to kill her.

After the water balloon, a thick fog followed, extremely dense, like a white cloud floating in the air, with countless water vapors boiling and instantly evaporated by the high temperature.

This is no ordinary trick like the Fog Concealment Technique!

"Return to Heaven!" Hyuga Yuto shouted softly, unleashing a torrent of chakra that blocked the intense heat of the fog.

Four muffled sounds rang out in succession, and the four people landed almost simultaneously.

"With their abilities, killing Kentaro and the others would be a piece of cake, but they deliberately let one of them go back to report. Are they trying to lure in a bigger fish...?"

As Hyuga Yuto thought this, he looked at the three people opposite him.

The robust Kaguya Jonin was only the third-in-command... The person in charge was that handsome young man with white hair, and the deputy should be the girl with reddish-brown hair.

— Hozuki Mangetsu, Terumi Mei!

"Ouch... Captain, you have a black bandage wrapped around your arm." Mei Terumi stared intently at Yuto Hyuga, a murderous glint in her beautiful emerald green eyes, but she teased him with a smile:

"I've heard that the famous Jade Lion possesses one of the most handsome faces in the ninja world, even more charming than the Uchiha clan. Why don't you take off your mask and let us admire him?"

"You'll see." Along with Hyuga Yuto's voice came a lion's roar:

"...I have always been forgiving towards those who are about to die."
