Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu

The explosive tag blew off the roof, and the bathhouse owner arrived with samurai to question them.

Ye Guang didn't want to negotiate with the bathhouse owner.

When ninjas carry out missions, they inevitably cause damage to property, and the Anbu has no precedent for providing compensation.

"Carry all the corpses and retreat!"

Including the black bull, there are now five corpses.

Ye Guang grabbed a bath towel and wrapped it around the two corpses. Ling carried two corpses on her back, and Zi Mao carried one corpse. The three of them quickly retreated.

Far from the town, the team rested under the glow of the night.

Purple Cat, feeling uneasy, approached Captain Fox.

"I'm sorry, Captain, it's because of our mountain tribe..."

“Purple Cat! I don’t want to keep lecturing you, but you’ve made another mistake,” said Nightlight.

"You must always be careful to protect your secrets."

The Anbu rarely uses ninjutsu in missions, mostly relying on taijutsu and explosive tags to resolve battles, in order to protect their intelligence.

Those secret agents who expose intelligence easily become the primary targets of enemy village espionage operations.

The ordinary-looking middle-aged man you see strolling around the village might be a squad leader in the secret service at night.

Do not talk about yourself except when required for the task.

The task comes first.

Do not feel guilty or distressed about the death of your teammates; such emotions are meaningless to the Dark Division.

Black Bull died, a glorious death in the line of duty.

He was controlled by a rogue ninja, and I felt no psychological reaction when I killed him.

If I don't kill him, I'll be the one who dies.

Ye Guang was initially annoyed by Zi Mao's abundant affection, but then he thought that doing ideological work for his subordinates was also one of the captain's tasks.

Ensuring the unwavering fighting spirit of subordinates can increase the success rate of missions and also improve one's own chances of survival.

Ye Guang continued to patiently guide and comfort:

"This purple cat mask of yours used to belong to one of my teammates."

He died in front of me; he was an ANBU ninja who worked seamlessly with me.

I will die, and you will die too.

After I die, this fox mask will be given to a new ANBU ninja.

To complete the ANBU mission before death—that is the only requirement for an ANBU ninja.

One of the most significant reasons for the high number of deaths among the Anbu was Danzo's command style.

When the secret agents are deployed, Danzo will send them to gather intelligence, while he will either go in last to reap the rewards or turn around and leave.

Just like in the original story, Danzo led his men to the Land of Rain to kill Yahiko, and in one go, he wiped out most of the elite Anbu.

Or, like Danzo did before his death when he encountered Obito and Sasuke, he could have sent his most trusted Root subordinates to test Obito while he leisurely observed the intelligence and dismantled his arm guards.

Purple Cat quickly said, "I understand, Captain. I will change my mindset and become a true ANBU ninja."

The death of the black bull was also a significant blow to the antelope.

In the squad, only someone like Nightlight, who had experienced the brutal battles of the Land of Whirlpools, understood that death was the norm for ANBU ninjas.

Returning to the Death Forest base of the Dark Division at dawn, Nightlight went to Black Gorilla Squadron Leader to hand over the mission.

The chimpanzee glanced at the mission report and said:

"They killed two more rogue ninjas, which made the Yamanaka clan even more satisfied."

"Oh, Black Bull is dead. I'll go to the root department tomorrow to apply for another one."

The chimpanzee spoke as if he were asking for a kunai. He added:

"Your men have been following you for over two months now. These two are really lucky to have lived this long."

During this period, most of our squadron's tasks were within the village.

Only missions away from the village can truly test the mettle of the Anbu ninjas. Make sure Purple Cat and Antelope train hard and don't slack off.

Night Light said:

"Understood, I will urge them to train. Captain, I request to monitor Princess Whirlpool tomorrow. I haven't seen her for two days and I'm feeling a bit out of sorts."

"You still have such a request? Then you have no vacation. I'll grant your wish. Go monitor Princess Whirlpool tomorrow."

Chapter 49 Intelligence

At noon, Tsurugi Izakaya had very few customers.

Qiaoyi sat behind the counter, looking dejected, and idly fiddled with the ledgers in front of her.

Where has he been these past few days? Why hasn't he come looking for me?

Recalling how his movements had become increasingly rapid the previous few nights, her pretty face suddenly flushed red.

She witnessed his growth, both in ninja skills and masculine strength.

Perhaps he accepted some mission and left the village.

The two businessmen entered the izakaya.

"Boss lady, a bottle of sake, please."

Qiaoyi heard the sound first, and her heart tightened suddenly.

That voice...

She slowly looked up and saw a girl, a girl younger than her.

younger sister?

A look of shock flashed across his eyes.

Qiaoyi works as a spy for the village, while her more talented younger sister works as a ninja in Iwagakure.

All the rewards and bonuses that Iwagakure gave to Joi were handed over directly to her younger sister, Mii.

Why is my sister here?

Could my sister be the contact person? Did she come to Konoha as a contact person?

Why did the village do this? She has already done so much for the village.

Qiaoyi has just received extremely important information: Mito Uzumaki will be holding her funeral in five days.

When the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, was alive, he did not hide his identity as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

With Hashirama Senju's strength, the Nine-Tails was nothing to be kept as the village's top secret.

Mito Uzumaki is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki; this is public information.

Qiaoyi knew the village would take this information very seriously, but to her surprise, the village sent Meiyi to find her.

When Mei Yi appears, Qiao Yi has no choice but to risk her life to verify the authenticity of the information.

This was the village's final order to the spy.

Either they successfully gather intelligence, the spy is recalled to the village, and becomes a ninja in the sunlight.

Either the intelligence gathering fails, and death ensues, along with everything the spy cherished as a last thing.

Meiyi disguised herself as a merchant who came to Konoha Village to commission a task, making her identity extremely easy to expose.

"They're here! My family offers three types of sake: mid-range, high-end, and premium. What price range are you looking for?"

"Special Grade, let's try out the good bar in a big village like Konoha!"

The code matched.

Qiaoyi's last hope was shattered; Meiyi's arrival in Konoha was not accidental.

Qiaoyi selected a bottle of wine and gave it to Meiyi.

Meiyi was also very excited; she hadn't seen her sister for three years.

Unfortunately, they couldn't recognize each other and had to pretend they didn't know each other.

Mei picked up her wine glass, looked at it carefully, and found a special mark.

Two days later, the bottle will appear in a nearby trash can, containing the final piece of information that Qiaoyi has confirmed.

The village must have the most accurate information about Mito Uzumaki.

Qiaoyi walked into the backyard and went into the room.

She took out all her money and prepared to take action in the next two days to gather intelligence.

While tidying up the room, Qiaoyi saw a razor.

This is his razor.

I wonder if they've found another little fairy.

He provided nearly half of the funding for her last operation.

Every time he came, he would order a lot of expensive beef and drink sake with the fewest impurities.

If she were truly a villager of Konoha, she might try to be with him.

After knowing each other for so long, he told her a name, but Qiaoyi knew it was a fake name.

He said his name was Mikoto, which was too perfunctory; it's just the name of an ingredient on a sake bottle.

His stable temperament is a great advantage among ninjas.

Many ninjas suffered from mental illnesses; they appeared to be normal people, but were particularly frightening when they went berserk.

Some ninjas were drinking at an izakaya when they suddenly remembered something from a mission and went berserk, smashing things up.

They may have killed the wrong person, or they may have killed too many people. They may have been tortured by the enemy, or they may have been suspected by the village.

Fortunately, this place is very close to the Uchiha Police Department, and Uchiha ninjas will come to deal with the crazed ninjas.

Qiaoyi arrived at the largest sake shop in Konoha Village.

"Boss, my izakaya business has been declining lately, so I'm planning a promotion tomorrow. How much premium sake do you have left?"

"How much premium sake can your shop consume?"

"Prepare at least 20 cases of premium sake every day for five consecutive days."

While chatting with her boss, Qiaoyi gestured to a salesperson.

The salesperson understood Qiaoyi's meaning and quickly stepped forward, using the excuse that an important client had appeared, to take the boss away.

The boss told Qiaoyi to wait in his office, and he would come back shortly.

That salesperson was one of her recruits, who hadn't been of much use until now, when he finally came in handy.

Qiaoyi arrived at the boss's office, closed the door, and took out a key.

This was a key she had secretly made a copy of long ago.

Qiaoyi carefully opened the safe and saw the boss's ledger.

Has the Senju clan suspended its alcohol purchases?

Qiaoyi checked the date; starting yesterday, the Senju clan stopped ordering alcohol.

She continued reading and saw the message that excited her the most.

The Uchiha clan placed an additional order for many cases of liquor!

The Uchiha and Senju clans had an extremely bad relationship and were always the biggest rivals within the village.

Especially after Uchiha Kagami's death, the Uchiha clan's bridge to the outside world was severed.

The fact that the Senju clan cancelled their wine order proves that they knew something bad might happen to the family.

The Uchiha clan, however, placed an additional order for many cases of sake, indicating that they believed something good was about to happen.
