Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu

So much information can be obtained simply by inferring the outcome afterward.

Orochimaru did not jump to conclusions and continued his investigation.

It's easy to identify a remnant of the vortex, but finding a remnant of the vortex is very difficult.

The remnants of the Uzumaki have been hiding for so long, yet there's been no word from the ninja world.

If many remnants of the vortex appear somewhere, all the villages will be excited, as they will be excellent experimental materials for sealing techniques.

Inside a tent.

Orochimaru slowly walked out, wiping the blood from his hands.

Inside the tent were several samurai who had seen the ninja with the ghost face.

Orochimaru said to Shin Hyuga, who was standing guard nearby:

"The warriors weren't lying; they really were three people wearing ghost masks."

One of them is easily recognizable; he is wearing a kappa demon mask.

The Kappa is a monster that emerged after the fall of the water god; it is a monster filled with boundless resentment.

Orochimaru continued his investigation.

One night, Orochimaru saw the word "Uzumaki" in the secret archives of the Daimyo of the Land of Grass.

"Hmm? The Daimyo of the Land of Grass secretly captured a remnant of the Uzumaki clan? Her constitution is extremely special; a single bite can heal all injuries?"

Following this clue, Orochimaru led his men to the foot of Evergreen Mountain.

"A ridiculous myth designed to attract attention. The first Daimyo of the Grass Country actually claimed to be the incarnation of the Evergreen Divine Mountain. Haha."

This low hill is nothing special.

Upon entering the laboratory inside the low mountain, Orochimaru saw the murdered experimental personnel and the missing Uzumaki Kanon.

Orochimaru searched the vicinity and quickly determined that the culprit possessed the ability to fly, leaving no trace on the ground.

Orochimaru said to the lynx that came with him:

"It's confirmed. Report to Danzo. The culprits in the recent series of cases are a remnant of the Uzumaki clan and a master of Fire Release."

Given that the Uzumaki clan is not skilled in fire-style techniques, that fire-style expert is likely a special ally of the Uzumaki remnants.

Chapter 256 The Four Symbols Seal

The northern border of the Land of Hot.

Four Konoha battalions and the Fox Squad set up a camp.

This conflict is equivalent to a small war, and it may not be resolved for a month or two.

A ninja hawk landed in the camp.

Aries removed the letter from Ninja Hawk's leg, opened it using a technique unique to the Anbu, and delivered it to the Fox Squad Leader's tent.

Ye Guang's eyes flickered.

The Hokage personally ordered all Anbu to be wary of the Uzumaki remnants and to kill them all to prevent them from affecting Konoha's Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Kushina Uzumaki.

"Aries, making the gathering of intelligence on the remnants of the Uzumaki a long-term mission for our squad is an important order from the Hokage."

"Yes!"

Aries is going to deliver the order.

Ye Guang pondered behind the table; he was already being very careful.

Orochimaru is truly remarkable; he somehow deduced part of the truth.

He wasn't exposed, but the remnants of the vortex were.

Ye Guang thought to himself, "Aren't you afraid that the remnants of the vortex will affect the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?"

If Yuka Uzumaki is really in danger, then I'll really have to influence the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

There's no need to worry too much.

The remnants of the vortex are hidden deep in the rainforest in the southwest of the Land of Rain.

To reach the depths of the rainforest, one must pass through the miasma-filled rainforest inhabited by the salamander clan, making the journey fraught with difficulties.

In the middle of the night, Nightlight led the Aries squad out of the camp to carry out a reconnaissance mission.

He had an ambiguous relationship with Hatake Sakumo; they were supposed to be in the same camp, but they only met once when the camp was initially assigned.

The battle in the Land of Hot Water was mainly reconnaissance. Hatake Sakumo did not assign any tasks to the fox, and the fox decided on its own whether the squad was to conduct reconnaissance or record the battlefield.

Upon arriving at the border, Ye Guang opened his white eyes, first surveying his surroundings to ensure there were no unforeseen circumstances, and then said:

"Aries, you lead your squad to scout three kilometers to the east, then return. I'll scout three kilometers to the west, and we'll regroup here."

"Okay, Captain."

After the Aries team left, Nightlight summoned the Stone Panda, White Porcelain, and White Glaze.

He arrived at the hiding place of the vortex remnants and found Yuja.

"Yuja, Danzo has discovered you. Your mission to lure the enemy has exposed you."

Yuja's eyes darted around in panic, then she looked at the fox and asked, "What do we do next?"

Ye Guang said, "Don't do anything next, don't panic."

Orochimaru could deduce that it was the remnants of the Uzumaki clan targeting Danzo, but he didn't know any further details.

Strengthen reconnaissance around the hideout; if you encounter any small groups of secret agents, move away immediately.

If you encounter a large group of dark forces, directly communicate with me through reverse telepathy.

Don't worry, I'll make sure they never leave alive.

If I had received prior intelligence, I would have informed you immediately.

As Ye Guang raised his hand, raindrops fell into his palm.

In this environment, he can use the Water Instantaneous Body Technique without restraint. Even if Danzo came, he might not be able to do anything to him.

Just like Hanzo, he is a demigod in the rain of the Land of Rain.

In his later years, Hanzo became corrupt and decadent, even building himself a magnificent palace in a waterless environment where he couldn't even use the Water Instantaneous Movement technique. In the end, he was assassinated by Nagato.

Seeing the frightened Youjia, Ye Guang went over and hugged her.

"Don't be afraid, the Uzumaki clan has passed through the most difficult time. Our strength is increasing, and we are no longer the weak Uzumaki clan we were two years ago."

Yu Jia nodded in Ye Guang's arms: "Okay, I understand."

Ye Guang added, "Danzo eventually obtained the seal of the Root of the Tongue, and his control over the Root became stronger and stronger."

Yu Jia, I need your help to study the seal that eradicates the root of tongue-related calamities.

The seal of the extinction of tongue calamity, like psychic magic, requires the blood of the practitioner.

"I will find a way to send someone with the seal of Danzo's Tongue-Severing Root. Then, based on Danzo's sealing chakra, we can break this seal. This is crucial for me."

“Okay, I will study the seal for eradicating the root of tongue-related calamities carefully,” said Yuja Whirlpool.

"Fox, let me give you the newly collected and crafted Book of Vortex Sealing. I hope our sealing techniques can help you."

"Okay, I'll have Bai Ci return it to you in a few days."

Yu Jia used her spiritual powers to reveal the Book of Seals, and Ye Guang took the large scroll and sealed it into her own scroll.

When he returned to the Land of Hot Springs, the Aries Squad had not yet returned.

Ye Guang took off his hooded robe and used a small fire technique to dry it.

A dozen minutes later, the Aries team found nothing and returned to find Captain Fox.

"Let's go back to camp."

The group returned to the camp.

Ye Guang returned to his tent, opened the scroll, and unsealed Youjia's Book of Seals.

Looking at the table of contents of the Book of Seals, there was no Corpse Demon Seal, no Vajra Chains, but almost everything else was there.

The Four Symbols Seal, in particular, caught Ye Guang's eye.

Using the Vajra Chains, one can immediately recognize a member of the Uzumaki clan. However, using the Four Symbols Sealing Technique is different; other ninjas can also use this technique.

In terms of sealing tailed beasts, the Four Symbols Seal is second only to the Adamantine Chains.

Ye Guang opened the scroll and began to read the records of the Four Symbols Seal.

The Four Symbols Seal requires the caster to possess the talents of Yin Escape and Yang Escape.

By combining equal amounts of Yang Release chakra and Yin Release chakra into a yin-yang symbol resembling a pair of fish, and rotating them, a very simple seal can be formed: the Yin-Yang Seal.

The Yin-Yang Seal has almost no power, but it is the foundation of a major sealing school of the Vortex Clan.

The sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan are divided into three major schools.

A bloodline seal based on the Vajra Chain;

The Yin-Yang Seal is based on the Two-Element Seal;

The Reaper Death Seal is based on the Shinigami (death god).

The Vortex Clan truly lives up to their reputation as masters of sealing techniques, with three distinct schools of thought within the clan alone.

The Four Symbols Seal, the Seal of the Root of Tongue Disaster, and the Five Elements Seal are all representative of Yin-Yang seals.

Tsunade's Yin Seal, judging from its name, also seems to have some connection with the Yin-Yang Seal.

Based on the Yin-Yang Seal, the complex Four Symbols Seal was developed.

Two portions of Yang Release chakra combine to form the sun;

One yin and one yang together form Lesser Yang;

Two portions of Yin Release chakra combine to form Taiyin;

One yang and one yin form Lesser Yin.

The four groups of chakra rotate to form a stable seal, which is the Four Symbols Seal.

The secret lies in the yin-yang harmony of Yin and Yang chakra.

Ye Guang extracted Yin Release chakra with his left hand and Yang Release chakra with his right hand, and with a clasp of his hands, he completed the simplest Yin-Yang Seal.

In the original story, when Naruto and Sasuke sealed Kaguya Otsutsuki, they each had the sun and moon representing yin and yang, respectively.

Perhaps the Six Paths: Earth Explosion Star has some connection with the Yin-Yang Seal of the Uzumaki Clan.

The Yin-Yang Seal is indeed simple; I mastered it after practicing it a few times.

When Ye Guang attempted to seal the Four Symbols, he encountered resistance.

Unlike the five elemental chakras, Yin Release and Yang Release chakra are not stable and can be easily neutralized and annihilated by unknown external substances.

The Four Symbols Seal is extremely difficult to achieve.

If one masters the Four Symbols Sealing Technique, one will be considered a master of sealing techniques. They can seal chakra and physiques equivalent to those of tailed beasts.

Chapter 257 I've become the kind of person I hate most.

In a town on the border of the Land of Hot Water.

The fox squad appeared instantly.

Inside the nobleman's mansion lay six corpses covered with white sheets.

The noblewoman's mother, with her white hair, walked unsteadily toward the moonlight, supported by her servants.

Everyone else was wearing black robes, but Ye Guang was wearing a white robe, making him stand out from the crowd.

"Are you a Konoha ninja?! Isn't the Land of Hot Springs under your protection?! Someone assassinated my son! And my five grandsons too!" The old woman cried out, tears streaming down her face.

"How can you be so useless? Why are you so useless! We should have followed the Moon Kingdom's lead and allied with the Thunder Kingdom!"

Ye Guang thought to himself, "You're wrong. If you were to join the Land of Thunder, we would be the ones who come to assassinate your son and grandson."
