Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu.

Chapter 263 The Secret Art of Disguise
Yakushi Nono asked the fox when he would kill Gui.

Ye Guang retorted, "What, do you also want Gui to die?"

After hesitating for a moment, Yakushi Nonou nodded and said, "Kui is in charge of coordinating with the orphanage. If he doesn't die, the orphans in the orphanage will not be safe."

“Very good, it seems we now have a common enemy,” said Ye Guang.

"The elders of the root are the most loyal to Danzo."

The newcomers at the root are all puppets and task machines controlled by the Seal of the Extinction of the Tongue.

Killing newcomers is not very meaningful; killing Gui would be a greater loss for Danzo.

There's no need to hide it from you; I'm preparing to conduct some experiments on Gui as instructed by Lord Yellow Dog, to break Danzo's seal of exterminating the root of tongue-trouble.

The "Tongue Trap Seal" is troublesome; once afflicted, the mission details cannot be revealed, allowing Danzo to assign missions with impunity.

Among the elders of the root village, Bing follows Danzo around and will not carry out any missions outside the village.

Gui is the most suitable experimental subject.

If I break the seal that severs the root of tongue-related calamities, then your children who have been captured by the root may also have the possibility of breaking free from the root.

"Thank you... thank you."

Yakushi Nonou's eyes were filled with excitement, and she couldn't even control her expression.

In the night, Yakushi Nonou's cheekbones slid downwards, which looked rather eerie.

Seeing the fox point to its own face, Yakushi Nonou realized that there was something wrong with her disguise technique.

She turned around and removed the tattered disguise.

When she turned around again, Ye Guang saw a gentle face.

Just like in the original work, Yakushi Nonou has gentle and kind features.

"I'm sorry you saw me lose my composure."

Ye Guang never expected that his words about breaking the seal that would destroy the root of the tongue would excite Yakushi Nono so much.

"Of the seven children the fox had sent into the roots, three have already died," said Yakushi Nonou.
"This month, Genbu took three more children away from the orphanage."

I don't know how much longer the orphanage can last. I don't know whether I will collapse first or the orphanage will disappear first.

The training at the Root is too cruel, demanding only strength and completely disregarding the children's physical condition.

It's so cruel... A child died while practicing Jiu-Jitsu, his small body completely curled up...

She could no longer speak, no longer think.

No wonder Yakushi Nonou reacted so strongly; it turns out Danzo went to the orphanage to pick people again.

Yako really wanted to advise Yakushi Nonou that they should just close the orphanage.

But then I thought about it again, and realized that these things—their hopes, their anchors, their bonds—are things I can't let go of.

Humans have emotions, even bloodthirsty ninjas have feelings.

Ye Guang didn't know when it started, but his feelings for the remnants of the vortex became more and more different.

Perhaps it started with the Whirlpool Laboratory in the Land of Whirlpools.

Yuka's father, Whirlpool, gave Ye Guang a great shock.

Putting aside the Uzumaki clan, it was simply a father's last sincere affection for his daughter.

Ye Guang said, "Don't let my infamous reputation in the dark forces fool you. I have people I cherish, and I understand you."

We are ninjas, and it is normal for ninjas to use any means necessary to achieve their goals, but there must be a limit to how ruthless they are.

It would be much easier to catch a child marked with the seal of "the root of calamity" than to catch a child named Gui, but I am unwilling to catch a child for an experiment.

My bottom line is a tiny bit higher than Danzo's.

I can assure you, I will never seize children from your orphanage for experiments.

The priestess, who had teetered on the edge of danger countless times to gather intelligence and who could not be swayed by any intimidation, was now silently shedding tears.

Looking at the faint starlight outside the cave, Yakushi Nonou felt sympathy for the orphans.

She cried for more than a minute, and showed no sign of stopping.

Yako stepped forward and hugged Yakushi Nonou, who had buried her face in her hands.

"Don't despair, we still have a chance."

Yakushi Nonou's body visibly trembled for a moment.

Her forehead was pressed against his shoulder by the fox. This was a scene that Ye Guang was very familiar with; Youjia always leaned on his shoulder like this.

With one arm around Yakushi Nono's back, Ye Guang gently patted her head with the other.

"When I first met you, your sophisticated deception skills frightened me. I didn't know when you would harm me."

It's different now.

I hope you can pull yourself together and not give up, for the orphanage and for yourself.

"If I ever become the head of the secret service, I will never harm any orphans."

"Um···"

Yakushi Nonou's mood improved somewhat.

Yako felt something slippery on her neck. She raised her hand from Yakushi Nonou's back and scratched her neck, grabbing some strange clay.

Yakushi Nonou turned her head slightly and quickly said, "Sorry, this is the bionic clay I use for disguise."

She quickly cleaned the clay from around her ears and neck.

"The clay is a single piece, so changing its shape is a bit tricky..."

Yakushi Nonou was pulling at the clay when she accidentally tore a large chunk out of her collar, changing the shape of her shoulder.

The clay even had the curves of a breast, which greatly surprised Ye Guang.

Yakushi Nonou saw the fox look at the clay, then at her own chest, with an incredulous expression.

She boldly demonstrated her disguise skills to Ye Guang.

After removing the solidified clay, Yakushi Nonou's clothes were disheveled.

Nightlight stepped forward and gently touched Yakushi Nonou's skin with her finger: "Your skin is so good even with the clay covering it? Is it the effect of medical ninjutsu maintenance?"

Yakushi Nono's heart raced.

Having used countless false identities in front of countless people, the sight of her revealing her true face to the fox stirred something strange within her.

She looked at the fox and tried to remove its mask.

The fox did not refuse; beneath the mask was a face covered by a veil.

Half an hour later.

"Among my disguise techniques, the Hip Shrinking Technique can alter one's body shape. Would you like to try it?"

"Hmm? So tight..."

The halberd in the night was broken and sunk into the sand, defeated and routed.

After a long period of rest, Yakushi Nonou reshaped her body with clay.

Night Light cupped Yakushi Nonou's face in her hands and said, "It's strange, all my distrust of you seems to have disappeared."

"Hmph." Yakushi Nonou deliberately made a dangerous expression: "You'd better watch out, I might give you false information, or I might fool you!"

Yakushi Nonou used her disguise technique to completely transform into another person. She took out two scrolls, on which were written the words 'left' and 'right' respectively.

"These are scrolls I use to pass information to my subordinates. Each pair is made individually," said Yakushi Nonou.
“We used to pass information using coded messages or blackboards in orphanages, which was too inefficient.”

You hold the right scroll, and I hold the left scroll.

If I have information, I will seal it in the left scroll; your right scroll can unseal it.

As expected of a walking shrine maiden, she certainly has efficient means of intelligence transmission.

In terms of simply transmitting intelligence scrolls, this is even faster than Nightlight and Yujia's Stone Panda Reverse Psychic Communication.

"Okay, I understand," Ye Guang said. "Help me find information about the Cloud Ninja Camp; I need it."

Ye Guang plans to end the conflict with Kumogakure next month.

In the past two months, Hatake Sakumo has completed the ninjutsu assessment rewards for frontline chunin and genin, and his prestige has been almost fully built up.

If the Cloud Ninja isn't dealt with soon, it will seem that Sakumo Hatake is incompetent.

Looking at Yakushi Nonou's back, Yoru suddenly wondered if he had been tricked by this woman.

She sacrificed her looks and still had to work for her and help her deal with Gui.

Yakushi Nonou is indeed a master of deception, but... she's really tight. Oh well, she might as well sacrifice herself.
