Naruto: Traveling Through Time Starting with Seizing the Dragon Vein

The outskirts of the Hidden Mist Village's intelligence office in the Land of Water.

Thick fog blanketed the area, and cold rain washed over the bluestone path.

Yahiko, Konan, and Nagato were currently wearing the Kirigakure ANBU uniforms they had taken from three unlucky guys, along with gas masks, and squatting in a dark alley outside the intelligence building.

"Listen carefully, Senior Yue said that our mission this time is to 'infiltrate' and 'gather intelligence'."

Yahiko lowered his voice, giving a pre-battle pep talk like a seasoned commander: "Our target is that ANBU squad leader up ahead. Nagato, when he turns that corner, subdue him as quickly and quietly as possible. Don't make a sound, and absolutely do not let him send out a distress signal, understand?"

Nagato nodded very seriously and heavily from behind that comical cat-face mask.

“I understand, Yahiko. Senior Tsuki taught us: ‘Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit. Never underestimate any enemy, because you never know what trump card they are hiding.’”

Nagato took a deep breath, and through his thick red bangs, his purple Rinnegan stared intently at the approaching Kirigakure ANBU captain.

"We absolutely cannot be careless... I must use absolute suppression to make sure he can't move a single finger, or even let out a scream!"

Nagato frantically tried to mentally prepare herself.

"Tap...tap..."

The commander of the Mist Shadow Squad yawned and walked into the shadows around the corner without warning.

"Now! Nagato!" Yahiko gestured.

Nagato suddenly darted out of the shadows!

To ensure a completely silent and foolproof operation, Nagato instantly released the [Ming Seal] from between his eyebrows, and the immense chakra from Loulan Cloud instantly poured into his Rinnegan!

Nagato suddenly stretched out one hand forward, aimed at the Dark Army captain, and unleashed what he considered "just a little bit of force to control the enemy"!

"Universal Celestial Guidance!!!"

"Whoosh-!"

The commander of the Misty Shadows unit felt a terrifying suction force acting on his entire body!

Before he could even process the words "enemy attack," he was sent flying like a cannonball into Nagato's palm!

To be on the safe side, Nagato had already gathered a high density of chakra in his other hand, preparing to sever the opponent's nerves the moment he caught them.

however.

"Bang—Pfft!!!"

A chilling sound of flesh exploding echoed through the alley!

Because Nagato exerted too much force, the ANBU squad leader was pulled in at such a rapid pace that, combined with the fact that Nagato's defensive chakra shield was too strong...

The elite member of the Dark Guard who had killed countless people in the Blood Mist was actually torn into countless pieces of flesh and blood flying everywhere by the enormous reaction force and gravity!

Blood mixed with internal organs poured down like a red rain, soaking Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan.

"..."

"..."

The alleyway fell into a deathly silence.

Nagato remained frozen in his outstretched hand, staring blankly at the last remaining fragment of the mask in his palm, his purple Rinnegan eyes filled with bewilderment and helplessness.

"He...he just...shattered like that?"

Nagato turned around and looked at Yahiko and Konan, who were equally dumbfounded, his voice trembling: "Yahiko... I swear, I really just wanted to capture him!"

Yahiko wiped the blood from his face, his lips twitching wildly.

"Beep—whoosh—beep—whoosh!!!"

They were given no time to reflect on the collapse of their combat power. The sonic boom and the commotion of flying flesh and blood instantly triggered the perception barrier of the Dark Unit building!

The piercing alarm ripped through the night sky above Kirigakure!

"Enemy attack!! The third squad has been wiped out! Location: the dark alley west of the intelligence station! All personnel on high alert!"

Countless murderous whistling sounds came from all directions, and swarms of Mist Shadow members, like sharks that had smelled blood, rushed madly toward the three of them!

"Oh no!" Xiao Nan's face turned pale. "We've been discovered! Our infiltration mission has failed!"

Nagato lowered her head, her face full of guilt: "I'm sorry... I messed it up. Shall we retreat now?"

"retreat?"

As Yahiko looked at the dozens of Kirigakure ANBU who had blocked the alleyway, a hint of "resolve" suddenly flashed in his eyes beneath his orange hair.

He recalled a classic example of "dark humor" that Uchiha Light had once mentioned in class.

Yahiko slowly drew the ninja sword from his back and wiped the blood from his face.

"Nagato, Konan, do you still remember what Teacher Yue taught us about what perfect infiltration is?"

Nagato and Konan were stunned for a moment, then both looked at Yahiko.

"Senior Yue said that as long as we kill everyone who sees us, no one will know that we were here!"

"This is the ultimate level of perfect stealth!"

Nagato's Rinnegan suddenly lit up, as if he had been enlightened!

Exactly! As long as there are no witnesses, the intelligence hasn't been leaked, right? Doesn't that mean we're still on the lookout?!

"I understand!"

The guilt vanished instantly, and Nagato's eyes brightened.

"Shinra Tensei!!!"

"Boom—!!!"

An overwhelming and terrifying repulsive force exploded from Nagato's center, like a tangible tsunami!

The dozens of Mist Shadow members who had just rushed into the alley were crushed into dust by this absolute repulsive force before they could even finish forming hand seals!

"The enemy...the enemy's strength is terrifying! Requesting reinforcements! Requesting the Mizukage..."

Another member of the covert team, who was on guard from a high vantage point, was about to crush the signal flare.

"Paper Rain!"

Xiao Nan sprouted wings on her back, which transformed into countless sharp, knife-like white paper pieces, instantly piercing the throat of the dark member!

"Charge in! Go straight to the intelligence room and grab the files!"

Yahiko roared and took the lead.

"Kill! Leave no one alive! For the perfect infiltration!"

Chapter 150 I should also play along with your act...

That night.

The Hidden Mist Village's secret intelligence department is facing its most terrifying nightmare since the village's founding.

Three boys wearing cat-face masks resembled prehistoric behemoths charging into a flock of sheep.

No passwords or secret codes.

Wherever it went, traps, barriers, or even the self-proclaimed elite of the dark forces were all crushed into dust by its utterly unreasonable violence!

The alarm grew weaker and weaker because the person who sounded it had been pulled out and killed by Nagato through the wall using "Universal Pull".

"Stop them! Stop them... Pfft!"

In just two short hours.

The once heavily guarded intelligence center of the Hidden Mist has been transformed into a deathly silent battlefield.

Yahiko stepped on a corpse and skillfully pulled out several top-secret "Daily Life Records of the Fourth Mizukage" from the safe.

He dusted it off and, satisfied, tucked the scroll into his pocket.

"See, we've got the intelligence, haven't we?"

Yahiko turned his head, looked at the wailing and ruins of the buildings, and gave Nagato and Konan a thumbs up.

"I told you so! As long as there are no living witnesses, our infiltration operation will be a 100% perfect success!"

Nagato looked around and saw that there were indeed no more Kirigakure ninjas standing. He nodded seriously, his Rinnegan filled with admiration for Yahiko's wisdom.

"Yahiko is right. Teacher Yue's teachings are indeed the truth of the ninja world."

Uchiha Yue, who was standing some distance away, sneezed.

When the scene of carnage at the Kirigakure intelligence building returned to my field of vision, and I heard Yahiko's confidently assertive "perfect infiltration theory"...

Uchiha Yue's eyes twitched uncontrollably.

"Those little bastards..."

Yue felt a deep sense of powerlessness welling up inside her, and even had an urge to cover her face.

Is this what you call infiltration? This is called forcibly destroying someone's base! And they even have the audacity to call it "not being discovered"!

"What's wrong? Did their mission fail?" Guang asked, leaning closer as he looked at Yue's constipated expression.

"It wasn't a complete failure, we did get the intelligence, but... they turned 'infiltration' into 'extermination'." Yue sighed and briefly described the "feat" of the Nagato trio.

After hearing Yue's description, Uchiha Hikaru nodded in agreement on her beautiful face, even echoing her sentiments with deep conviction:

“Yahiko is right. As long as we kill everyone who sees them, no one will be able to reveal their whereabouts. This makes perfect sense in terms of tactics.”

"..."

So, in the eyes of these monsters they've trained, the ultimate level of "stealth" is simply mowing down enemies like mowing grass!

but……

After a brief period of absurdity and strangeness, a hint of undisguised relief gradually appeared in Uchiha Yue's eyes.

"Although the methods were a bit crude, these kids have finally grown up."

Yue leaned back in her chair and chuckled softly.

In the original work, Nagato and Yahiko were driven to a dead end by the old foxes Hanzo and Danzo with the simplest tricks because they were too naive and too superstitious about so-called "mutual understanding". This ultimately led to the tragedy of Yahiko's tragic death and Nagato's complete corruption.

And now?
