The Hokage's office.

"Lord Hokage, do you have any instructions?" Mugetsu asked immediately as he entered the room without any formalities.

To be honest, he's been getting a little bored at home these past few months. Aside from occasionally visiting Miyu's house to play with Little Red Bean, he spends his days eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating.

The Third Hokage, with his cunning and shrewdness, saw through his current state at a glance. "What's wrong? Getting a little bored now that you're free? Perfect timing, I have some trouble here that I need you to handle." He picked up the intelligence file on the table and handed it to him.

"Huh? You want me to infiltrate the Land of Rain?" The first thing that came to Wuyue's mind wasn't the mission, but a certain young lady with light purple hair.

Unfortunately, although the target of this mission is in the Land of Rain, it is not inside Amegakure (the Hidden Village of Rain). Rather, it is the border between the Land of Rain and the Land of Earth.

The mission itself isn't difficult; it simply requires gathering detailed information about the transactions between the Iwa ninja and Amegakure ninja. Of course, if possible, it would be best to disrupt the agreement between the two.

095 ANBU, ANBU!

(Gentlemen's Exchange Kingdom: **)

"Speaking of which, Rain Ninja really loves to stir up trouble."

Putting the mission documents back on the table, Wuyue sighed, "First it was the Sand Village that reached an agreement with us, then it was the Iwa Village, and now it's the Iwa Village? Taking benefits from all three parties at the same time, aren't they afraid of suffocating themselves?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi tapped his pipe and said calmly, "That's because they have Hanzo."

Wuyue nodded, indicating that she understood immediately.

Indeed, if it weren't for Hanzo, a Kage-level powerhouse, supporting them, a small, isolated country like Amegakure wouldn't even have the right to ask for benefits. They would have been reduced to a natural battlefield between the three great nations of Earth, Wind, and Fire, just like in the Second Shinobi World War, helplessly watching their own people being slaughtered.

However, even with a Kage-level powerhouse backing them, Amegakure's greed was still too outrageous. Those who are insatiable will ultimately meet a bad end. If the original Naruto storyline continues, Hanzo will pay the price for his greed with his death within a few years.

"Regarding this mission..." Hiruzen Sarutobi exhaled a puff of smoke and continued, "You will carry it out as the captain of the ANBU."

Wu Yue's lips twitched, and she said, "Reporting to the Chairman, can I carry out this alone? Leading a team is too much trouble!"

"Request rejected."

Hiruzen Sarutobi stared at him expressionlessly. "I don't doubt your strength. However, to become a fully-fledged ninja, individual strength alone is far from enough. Go, I've already sent someone to inform your teammates that you'll assemble at Training Ground Fourteen at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

……

……

The so-called Training Ground No. 14 is actually located near the East Street of Konoha.

However, because it is close to the guesthouse, it is more of a playground for the elderly and children than a training ground for ninjas.

Watching these people gathered in twos and threes, drinking tea, chatting, and playing chess, while a few children in the distance were still playing and laughing, Wuyue had a feeling of strolling in a park.

As a secret service team, they would be considered special agents in modern society. To choose such a busy place as a rendezvous point—are they really not mistaken?

Hey, look at that kid's gaze, he's obviously noticed me!

Wow! She's coming over, she really is! Her eyes are sparkling with excitement and curiosity—is it because she's wearing a fox mask? Don't get too close, kids are such a hassle!

The face beneath the moonless mask was etched with helplessness, but the child opposite him was clearly oblivious, raising two chubby little hands and exclaiming, "Wow! It's the Flying Fox! Are you really the Flying Fox himself?"

What the heck is a flying fox? Is it the main character in some children's book? I only know Reynard the Fox!

While thinking this to herself, Wuyue deliberately spoke in a hoarse voice, "I'm not a flying fox, I'm a nine-tailed fox demon! I eat cute little lolis!"

Wow!

Without any warning, the little girl burst into tears, drawing the attention of everyone around her.

Tsk, you're so easily scared. When you were your age, your brother went in and out of Miyu's house seven times, and he didn't even flinch when his clothes were stripped off and his penis was flicked!

Wuyue felt no guilt whatsoever for making the little girl cry. Looking at her wailing face, she even couldn't help but want to reach out and pinch her cheeks a couple more times.

But at that moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

It was a girl wearing a fox mask as well, with emerald green hair pulled back and tied in a ponytail. She was about two centimeters taller than Wuyue, and the skin on her neck and arms was exceptionally fair. Even though Wuyue couldn't see her face, she felt that she was probably quite pretty and a beauty.

No! Now is not the time to think about these things. She's probably my teammate, right?

Shaking her head, Wuyue was about to step forward to speak when the green-haired girl stroked the little girl's hair and said softly, "Heaven, Flying Heaven, the Fox Contract! Follow me to vanquish all evil in the world!"

Her voice was clear and melodious, like a nightingale's song. But what she said made Wu Yue almost unable to bear watching! This girl, so she's also a fan of children's books? She's even on the same wavelength as that little girl!

The little girl was still sobbing, but she opened her big eyes and asked, "Big sister... are you the real flying fox?!"

"The Flying Fox can transform into anything and is omnipresent." The green-haired girl squatted down and said, "You can't cry anymore. The Flying Fox doesn't like children who cry. If you stop here, I'll give you a kiss."

The little girl stopped crying and looked expectantly at the green-haired man in front of her. The latter slowly removed his mask, revealing his pretty and youthful face.

Just as Wuyue had thought, the girl was indeed very beautiful. She was probably around fourteen years old, a standard beauty and a young girl.

*smack*

The girl's lips gently touched the little girl's forehead; the scene was truly beautiful. Even the people around them smiled, their eyes filled with admiration as they looked at the girl.

However, Wuyue's face suddenly turned red, and an expression of disbelief and astonishment appeared on her face.

Squad 096, formed!

Make your choice, dear host.

First, shout loudly: Tell the green-haired guy to let go of that little girl, come at him if you have a problem!

Second, tell the green-haired guy that she is your little girl, and kiss her little mouth as proof.

Third, he hugged the little girl and the green-haired boy together, feeling grateful that the family was finally reunited.

Damn it!

Wuyue gritted her teeth, filled with resentment towards the system that had once again caused this kind of trouble.

Keep in mind, this is happening in public! Either option will inevitably attract attention! And you'll definitely be seen as a pervert!

This damn good-for-nothing, you can't be happy without making a fool of yourself, can you? I'll get rid of you one day! Cough cough, just literally get rid of you, not some weird or strange thing! Absolutely not!

Thinking this, he raised his head and took a deep breath. "Let go of that little girl! If you have something to say, come at me!"

Unsurprisingly.

Upon hearing his words, everyone turned their gaze toward him, their eyes filled with surprise and astonishment.

"Congratulations, host, for completing the selection. You will be rewarded with ten days of cultivation and one year of dragon growth cycle."

call.

Although her cheeks flushed red from the stares of these people, Wuyue breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the system notification, feeling fortunate. Thankfully, she was wearing an Anbu mask!

The green-haired girl was also somewhat taken aback by Wuyue's words. She hesitated, about to say something, when a meaningful voice suddenly rang out. "Oh my, oh my, what an incredible, perverted declaration! Is this our captain? I think he's a hero of Konoha?"

Not good!

Wu Yue felt a sudden sense of unease. Why did that voice sound so familiar?! She turned her head away, her pupils suddenly contracting.

Before their eyes were two girls, around eleven or twelve years old, standing on either side of them, somewhere between lolis and young girls. They were both dressed in the silver-gray clothing of the Dark Division, and their masks were turned to one side of their heads, revealing their pretty faces.

The girl on the left was the one who spoke; she had shoulder-length black hair with bangs covering her forehead. Her eyes were slightly upturned, giving her a rather assertive look, and her grayish-white pupils were looking at Wuyue with a mocking gaze.

It was a year ago that Mugetsu had met the incredibly sharp-tongued loli, Hinata Saori, by a riverbank!

But Wu Yue subconsciously ignored him, her gaze fixed on the person beside her. Long, straight black hair, a cold face, large eyes, and scarlet pupils.

Seeing that familiar, stunning face, all the memories of their time together flooded Wuyue's mind, causing him to involuntarily call out, "Yui-senpai..."

"It's been a long time, Muzuki." Yui's eyes also sparkled with the joy of a long-awaited reunion.

This left Hyuga Saori, who was standing nearby, somewhat incredulous! In her memory, Uchiha Yui was a girl who was so aloof and indifferent to everything. How could she possibly have such emotional fluctuations?

Is this kid really that charming?! He's clearly just a perverted, creepy crawler!

Looking at the moonless sky, Hinata Saori's feelings could be described as a mixture of displeasure and resentment.

She would never forget the scene when this disgusting guy, whom she considered a maggot, humiliated her! More importantly, he now dared to ignore her!

For some reason, seeing the two exchanging flirtatious glances made Hinata Saori feel a surge of irritation. Her tone turned harsh. "Hey, how long are you going to stare, you sewer maggot? Weren't you just rubbing your eyes on some strange girl? Why don't you stop now?"

"What the hell is this 'getting horny' thing?!" Wu Yue was taken aback at first, then retorted, "Who would get horny towards a strange girl! I was just joking! Just kidding!"

"Heh." Hinata Saori let out a cryptic laugh. She looked at Mugetsu with the same disdain one might show towards some filthy creature.

This guy is still as sharp-tongued as ever, he hasn't changed at all!

Wu Yue's lips twitched.

At that moment, the forgotten green-haired girl walked over and said softly, "So you'll all be my teammates from now on? My name is Rina Sawashiro, it's nice to meet you all."

"My name is Yuhi Mugetsu."

"Uchiha Yui".

"Hyuga Saori".

Faced with such a polite girl who was older than them, the group didn't show any coldness and introduced themselves.

"The sun sets without a moon?" Rina Sawashiro was stunned, her face full of admiration. "You, you are the Celestial Dragon of Konoha? The hero who turned the tide of the entire western front?"

"It's not that amazing," Wuyue scratched her head and said embarrassedly, "People have exaggerated it too much. I just did what I was supposed to do."

"Hmph, like asking for panties?" Hinata Saori sneered.

Damn! How does she even know this?!

The face beneath the Wuyue mask instantly changed, turning bright red.

“Saori, that’s just Muzuki-kun’s personal hobby. There’s no need for him to bring it up.” Yui seemed to be defending Muzuki, but what she said only made people more misunderstanding.

"Pfft. Someone with such a hobby is definitely not an ordinary human. They should be classified as a pervert or weirdo." Hinata Saori laughed maliciously, "Right, our Celestial Dragon?"

"Eh? So Lady Mugetsu is a pervert?" Rina Sawashiro realized somewhat belatedly.

"I'm not a pervert! I'm a decent person, a decent person!" Wuyue retorted fiercely. At the same time, she secretly sighed, "This team is really damn hard to manage. Can I replace them?"

097 Centipede, Carp, and Fox

The border between Turkey and Turkey is a vast hilly area.

Strictly speaking, this place is still within the territory of the Land of Rain, but it has quite the characteristics of the Land of Earth. All you can see are small hills one after another. The drizzling raindrops fall on this area, creating a sense of desolation and bleakness.
