Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu.

Chapter 264 You're being a bit too flashy.

Several days later, a message came from the right scroll held by Ye Guang.

After obtaining crucial information from Yakushi Nonou, Yako returned to the Konoha camp and found Hatake Sakumo.

"Lord Sakumo, I just extracted the location of the Cloud Ninja camp during my inspection! I'm not sure if the information is true or false, so I need Lord Sakumo and the strategist ninja to make a judgment."

The conflict in the Land of Hot Springs has lasted for nearly two months, and Sakumo Hatake has rallied a new group of followers.

After careful selection, Hatake Sakumo, Yamashiroji, Gekko-michi, and others deliberately befriended and mentored more than 50 special Jonin, Chunin, and Genin. The vast majority of these people would become Hatake Sakumo's followers.

It's time to end this, or it will make Konoha's White Fang look incompetent.

Upon hearing this, Sakumo Hatake's eyes lit up: "Good! The protracted tug-of-war has resulted in numerous deaths and injuries; the conflict should have ended long ago!"

He and several staff officers studied the map for a long time. The location that the fox brought back did indeed resemble the Cloud Ninja's nearest command post.

Ye Guang said, "Let me take some men to scout ahead first."

Sakumo Hatake said, "Okay, go and come back quickly."

Night Light led the Aries Squad out of the Konoha camp in the darkness.

Aries and the others were extremely excited. They had a new trump card and were determined to test their skills against the Cloud Ninja.

Upon entering the Moon Kingdom, the surrounding mountains rapidly become steeper.

Bypassing several high mountains, Ye Guang found a secluded valley.

The valley was shrouded in clouds, making it impossible for ninja hawks or high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft to see what was happening inside.

Upon reaching the other side of the valley, Nightlight signaled the team to stop.

They observed the valley through binoculars and waited patiently for an hour, but did not see anyone enter or leave.

According to the information Yakushi Nonou gave him, the Cloud Ninja Camp was roughly in this direction.

Nightlight stood at the front of the Aries team, secretly opening his White Eyes.

To his surprise, the valley was extremely long; even with a 3-kilometer field of vision, he couldn't see the end of it.

No wonder no one goes in or out of the valley; the Cloud Ninja can jump into the valley from anywhere at will.

Ye Guang said, "Let's go! We'll climb the mountain on the west side of the valley first!"

Instead of rushing into the misty valley, Ye Guang and the others climbed the mountain.

The mountain is covered with barren white rocks, and there are cliffs of varying heights everywhere, making it difficult to walk.

Chakra adhered to his feet, and he stepped on the stone.

These stones are severely weathered, and they often break off, making it difficult to walk on them.

Aries, hearing the crackling sound of stones falling, worried that the noise was too loud and someone would hear it.

As they walked, Ye Guang's white eyes spotted a small team coming down from the mountaintop.

The luminous light signaled for everyone to stop.

The mountain peaks disappeared into the clouds.

Like Captain Fox, Aries and the others kept their eyes glued to the clouds.

The clouds quickly changed from a light mist to a dense, impenetrable pure white.

Aries turned around and checked; all the team members slightly bent their knees, ready to fight or dodge at any moment.

"Disperse!"

Ye Guang shouted and jumped up instantly.

The others dodged to the left and right.

A blinding laser beam pierced the clouds.

That unique light was a Storm Release laser, a combination of Water Release and Lightning Release.

The members of the Aries team were all quite strong, and they weren't killed by a single attack from the Storm Release.

Amidst the mist, Garui looked somewhat surprised.

It's one thing that the renowned Copper Fox of the Anbu could dodge the Storm Release, but it's another that four Anbu members managed to dodge it.

As a result of Copper Fox's advance warning, the four men carried out the order without hesitation or thought, even though they saw nothing.

This can only be achieved through absolute obedience and absolute trust.

The Storm Release laser missed its target, then immediately turned in mid-air, circling around before continuing its trajectory towards the Copper Fox in mid-air.

This laser, like water, can change direction, retaining some of the characteristics of water escape.

There are several ways to dodge the light in mid-air. One is to rely solely on taijutsu to twist the body; another is to use wind release to give oneself a lateral force; and a third is to withstand it head-on and test the power of storm release.

A real man would choose option three: tough it out.

In an instant, the light condensed into water-style chakra, and a spiral-shaped serpent appeared around its body.

The Storm Release collided with the semi-absolute defense, Ring Serpent, and encountered enormous resistance.

The ringed snake hangs outside its body, forming a Faraday cage, making it resistant to lightning strikes.

Water droplets sprayed in the air; it was unexpected that such a slender ringed snake could contain so much water.

The energy of the Storm Release laser was dissipated, and Nightlight landed steadily.

Garui led his men out of the clouds.

"So you're the Konoha Bronze Fox who could stop the Third Raikage's attack?"

Hatake Sakumo had long wanted to use a surprise attack to destroy the Cloud Ninja's command post, preferably to kill Garui directly.

To his surprise, Garui appeared in front of him.

A fierce battle erupted between the two sides in an instant.

The light in the night trembled in surprise.

So fast!

Garui instantly appeared in front of Nightlight and slashed at Nightlight's head with his ninja sword.

The semi-absolute defense ring snake reappeared, stopping Garui's ninja sword at the most crucial moment.

Garui's ninja sword encountered strong resistance.

Lightning flashed on the ninja sword, which sliced ​​through the special water ring, but the bronze fox had already retreated to a distance.

Nightlight assessed Garui's strength in his mind.

Storm Release Kekkei Genkai, an extremely fast Body Flicker Technique that combines Lightning Release and swordsmanship, similar to the Chidori Blade's swordsmanship in the original work.

These abilities are all top-notch.

Ye Guang raised his hand to form a seal, and after one seal, a wave of water surged forth.

A high-speed waterline shot straight toward Garui's chest.

However, Garui dodged the Water Severing Wave with his incredibly fast Body Flicker Technique.

Nightlight noticed arcs of electricity crackling from Garui's calves.

Lightning Instantaneous Movement?
Ye Guang smiled.

Garui, you're a bit too flashy. I don't even know what I want from you anymore.

He has gathered enough intelligence.

The Cloud Ninja Command Post is indeed in the valley, and Garui is there.

Garui's abilities include Storm Release Kekkei Genkai, Lightning Instantaneous Movement, and Lightning Blade Technique.

The attack power of Storm Release is very strong.

Lightning Blink is also top-tier; he is one of the fastest ninjas Ye Guang has ever seen.

Garui noticed the Bronze Fox hesitated for a few seconds before teleporting back.

This time, instead of using the serpentine ring, copper light was used for the luminous material.

The thunder blade struck the copper light, producing a crisp metallic clang.

The powerful lightning release caused cracks to appear in the earth-attribute chakra crystal.

Lightning Release indeed counters Earth Release, destroying the internal structure of the earth-attribute crystal.

Even with elemental advantage, the Absolute Defense Copper Light can still withstand two hits.

The luminescence test revealed the limits of copper's luster.

On the third strike, Garui was surprised to see that the bronze fox had been cut in two.

His knife finally slanted downwards, his body stiffened, and it was unbelievable.

What's going on? No shadow clones? No earth substitutes?
He remembered that the intelligence indicated that the Bronze Fox was skilled in earth-based techniques and also had a unique earth-based substitution ability.
