Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu.

Chapter 23 The Transparent Barrier

There is a narrow strait between the Land of Waves and the Land of Fire, so narrow that a bridge could be built to cross it.

Despite being closer to the Land of Fire, the Land of Waves' mission share has consistently belonged to Uzushiogakure.

After crossing the strait and entering the Land of Fire, Captain Yellow Dog ordered his men to find Nightlight.

The yellow dog captain looked Ye Guang up and down, then said, "You're the only one left in the brown bear squadron. You're not strong enough to be a squadron leader, so I'll assign you to the black gorilla squadron."

Ye Guang nodded. He observed the Black Gorilla Squadron Leader, who was tall and exceptionally robust, and whose physical skills were clearly very strong. He wondered what abilities the Black Gorilla Squadron Leader possessed.

They drew the Shadow Clone Technique from Captain Antelope and the Body Flicker Technique from Captain Brown Bear; the Anbu members had all sorts of good stuff.

Upon arriving at the Black Gorilla Squadron, the squadron leader first assigned Nightlight to act alone.

As the squad leader, Ye Guang was not a good candidate for being assigned to another squad. The other squads were also heavily damaged and unwilling to assign members to Ye Guang.

The team moved on.

As we walked, the surrounding mist grew thicker and thicker.

"Captain Black Gorilla, is this a naturally occurring fog, or...?"

"This is the Land of Fire. Even if the Mist Ninja come, we are absolutely confident that we can defeat them."

Ye Guang turned to look at the remaining soldiers around him, wondering where the Black Gorilla Squadron Leader got his confidence from.

Yuga summoned a large, long spear called White Heron, ready to have it take Kushina Uzumaki away at any time.

The atmosphere became increasingly depressing.

Visibility was only two or three meters in the thick fog.

Nightlight adjusted his mask to ensure his vision wasn't limited by the eye holes.

He could see trees two meters away, but beyond that, all he could see was a vast expanse of white.

The damp mist made me feel uncomfortable all over.

Suddenly, I heard a whooshing sound behind me!
A tingling sensation ran down my back, and the glowing light seemed to rush forward.

He wiped his hair with a kunai and nailed it to the tree trunk opposite.

Ye Guang quickly adjusted his position on the ground and turned to stare at the thick fog behind him.

However, nothing could be seen in the thick fog.

This time, the Mist Ninja did not use the Silent Killing Technique for close combat, but instead harassed the enemy from a distance with kunai.

With a visibility of only two or three meters, it's too late to dodge once you see the kunai.

It's better to rely on hearing than on sight.

Screams rang out all around, the cries of pain from the ninjas who had been hit by kunai.

Compared to the Uzumaki ninja, the Konoha Anbu are of higher quality and have a tougher tongue; even if they are pricked like hedgehogs, they won't utter a sound.

boom!
This isn't a matter of being stubborn anymore; the Mist Ninja are starting to use explosive tags!
The Hidden Mist Village, primarily composed of Water Release ninjas, has produced its precious explosive tags, and the villagers are in a panic.

In the explosion of the detonating tag, an ANBU ninja was engulfed by flames and thick smoke, collapsing in front of the night light.

He died a horrible death; his legs below the thigh were blown off, and bone fragments were exposed on the broken surface of his leg.

Just then, Ye Guang suddenly felt a chill.

It was the coolness brought by the wind.

Immediately following! Was terrifying wind pressure!

Ye Guang didn't care about anything else and turned around to press himself tightly against the big tree behind him.

The tree opposite wasn't thick enough, and it was snapped in two by the wind, about to fall on him.

Ye Guang quickly formed a hand seal and sank into the ground.

When he reappeared from the ground, the thick fog around him had already dissipated.

A single wind escape technique dispersed hundreds of meters of thick fog.
The surrounding trees, which were not very thick, were all blown down by the strong wind.

Looking into the distance, Ye Guang saw Shimura Danzo, who had just put down his hand seal.

Danzo arrived with two assistants to provide support.

Oh my goodness.

Danzo Shimura gave him such a great sense of security.

Danzo's four white eyes, with very small pupils, were staring at a group of Mist Ninja in the distance.

When the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, Juzo Biwa and Jinpachi Murashi, saw that it was Danzo, they left without looking back.

Danzo glanced at the two ANBU battalions, both reduced to half their original strength and in dire straits, but did not order a pursuit.

The ANBU members leaped up from the mess of tree stumps and came to Danzo's side.

The two captains, Yellow Dog and Blue Sparrow, stood behind Danzo, awaiting his reprimand. The Uzumaki ninjas also arrived.

The leader of the sealing team looked relieved: "Minister Danzo, I didn't expect you to come to the rescue in person. In the entire Hidden Leaf Village, only you can deal with the large-scale dense fog set up by the combined forces of the Mist Ninja."

Danzo nodded and looked at Kushina Uzumaki: "Princess Uzumaki...this doesn't seem like a Jinchūriki. Did she fail?"

The sealing squad leader nodded: "There are many hidden sentries of the Mist Ninja around the wild Three-Tails. We have sacrificed many people, but we still failed to seal the Three-Tails."

Ye Guang stood behind the ANBU ninja, pretending to rest, half-squatting on the ground.

Through the shadows, he saw Danzo's clenched fist, his knuckles white.

It seems that Danzo was not as calm as he appeared; he was actually very angry.

He always had a deadpan expression, never showing his emotions, and no one could tell when he was about to explode in anger.

If Kushina Uzumaki becomes the Jinchūriki of the Three-Tails, all of Konoha's plans regarding the Nine-Tails will fall through.

The Nine-Tails is one of the cornerstones of Konoha Village. A secret operation by Uzumaki Village almost caught Konoha off guard.

Danzo remained silent for several seconds.

No one dared to speak.

Young Kushina hid behind Yuga. She felt that this sinister middle-aged man was terrifying.

Danzo slowly said, "The remnants of the two Anbu squads will continue to escort Princess Uzumaki back to Uzumaki Village."

After saying that, Danzo turned around and left with his assistant.

Ye Guang was somewhat puzzled. Konoha was determined to get Kushina Uzumaki, so why didn't they capture her now?

Could it be that they want Kushina Uzumaki to willingly enter Konoha?
The two secret service squads continued their advance, escorting Princess Uzumaki to the Whirlpool Country Peninsula.

Throughout the journey, Youjia kept a close watch on the shadows and was able to pinpoint the fox's location each time.

She would quickly look away to avoid being discovered by the shadows.

The fox was well hidden and inconspicuous among the ANBU ninjas.

If the two battalions of ANBU ninjas hadn't dwindled to just over 40 people, the fox would have been even better hidden.

The Senju clan selects highly qualified spies.

The group arrived near Uzushiogakure Village, and the Yatagarasu flew out of the village.

The enormous Yatagarasu bird swooped overhead, startling the little white egret with its long spear perched on Yuka's shoulder, causing it to shrink its neck in fear.

"Don't be afraid, that's our village's guardian spirit beast, it won't do anything to you."

The ninja escorted the Uzumaki ninja to the village entrance, but the ANBU ninja did not enter. After a brief farewell, they left.

Ye Guang breathed a sigh of relief.

He's been away for too long, and he really wants to go back to the village. He hopes he'll never come out again after that.

It's dangerous outside, I want to go home.

After leaving Uzushiogakure, Yagami realized they were going the wrong way.

Captain Yellow Dog led his ANBU to a high mountain near Uzushiogakure Village.

The four captains of the secret service used a barrier technique.

A transparent barrier enveloped the mountaintop.

From the outside, it still looks like a mountaintop, but the four company commanders have disappeared and become invisible.

The ANBU ninjas entered the barrier and disappeared behind it one by one.

Invisibility barrier?

The luminous light also entered the barrier.

Captain Yellow Dog began assigning tasks to the squad leader, and Squad Leader Black Gorilla then recruited three of his subordinates, including Nightlight, as squad leaders.

"Working in three shifts, using binoculars to keep an eye on Uzushiogakure from within the invisibility barrier!"

Luminous was assigned to the first shift.

Lying behind a rock, Ye Guang used binoculars to look at the nearby Uzushiogakure village.
-
The full moon is like a silver plate, and the moonlight is like white frost.

Ye Guang eagerly awaited the night of the full moon.

Three days later, Danzo led a full-strength squad of ANBU into the invisibility barrier.

The advisor Danzo stayed inside the barrier for several days, unusually patient, sitting quietly on the stone, unhurried and calm, seemingly waiting for something.

With the ANBU forces within the barrier all under Danzo's nose, everyone grew increasingly tense.

It seems that the great calamity of the Vortex Clan is unavoidable.
