Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu.

Chapter 277 The Art of the Mayfly
The light shone in the soil. For the first two meters, it used the technique of reflecting fish in the soil, and then switched to the technique of mayfly.

The sudden appearance of a large number of tree roots from underground startled Ye Guang. Could Wood Release techniques really be used to launch attacks from underground using tree roots?

The luminescence immediately blended into the surrounding soil and quickly moved away.

The next second, the glowing light appeared more than 100 meters away.

Madara Uchiha was somewhat surprised; this Earth Reflection Fish Technique of the Konoha Anbu seemed rather strange.

The speed at which the Konoha Anbu entered the ground was incredibly fast, almost comparable to the White Zetsu's Mayfly Technique.

The Mayfly Technique is a secret Wood Release technique, and it's impossible for the Fox Anbu to master Wood Release.

Jiraiya, the lynx, and Gui scattered and fled, unable to care for each other.

Gui was jumping forward with all his might, but as soon as he landed, he suddenly felt his ankle get caught on something.

He failed to jump again, lost his balance, and fell to the ground.

As he fell to the ground, a hand reached out from the ground, holding half a thin tree trunk.

The cross-section of the tree trunk is wedge-shaped and exceptionally sharp.

puff!
The branch pierced Gui's abdomen!
After several rounds of practice, Nightlight launched an attack from underground, killing the other two at their roots with tree branches.

The lynx in the distance glanced back and saw the wooden splinter sticking out of Gui's spine, and was terrified.

Did the fox's rearguard action fail? Madara Uchiha has caught up again?

He fled even more desperately into the distance.

The face of the lynx appeared on the trunk of a large tree, watching the lynx disappear into the distance.

Let him go this time; collecting Gui's body is the priority.

Only with Gui's corpse can the seal of the extinction of the root of the tongue disaster be broken.

The face glowing in the moonlight disappeared into the tree trunk.

The Mayfly Technique truly lives up to its reputation as a top-tier stealth technique in the ninja world; even elite Jonin like the Lynx couldn't detect it when it made a move.

Using the tricks of the mayfly to deceive people, he finally showed some masterful skill in getting away with things without anyone noticing.

Just as he was feeling smug, Ye Guang suddenly arrived in the underground organic network, and a shadow rushed towards him.

A creature capable of burrowing through underground networks of organic matter must be a White Zetsu.

They can all utilize the underground network of organic matter, and it seems that White Zetsu can also detect him.

The shadow remained still.

However, it was too late. Nightlight broke the ten seals, released his last bit of chakra, and suddenly accelerated towards White Zetsu.

White Zetsu lacked such a burst of power and was captured by Nightlight.

After killing the White Zetsu scout, Nightlight quickly sealed the White Zetsu into a scroll.

We could use the White Zetsu's corpse to give to Orochimaru or higher-ups in exchange for some benefits.

Carrying Gui's body on his back, Ye Guang used contract chakra to notify the stone panda Bai Ci.

This time, five members of the Root unit died, and seven members of the Lynx squad died, dealing Danzo another heavy blow.

Upon arriving at the bamboo forest of the Stone Panda clan, Ye Guang attempted to use the Mayfly Technique while carrying the corpse, but failed.

It seems that the art of the mayfly can only be used by oneself.

Upon arriving outside the vortex's hiding place, Ye Guang laid Gui's body down for You Jia.

"Yoga, this is the corpse of a Root ninja. Danzo marked him with the Tongue Calamity Seal."

"Try to break Danzo's 'Tongue-Severing Seal,' it will be of great use to weaken him."

Yuja said, "Okay, I understand. I will break this seal as soon as possible."

Ye Guang said, "Someone extraordinary has appeared around Nagato. He's being used. You Jia, make sure you don't have any contact with Nagato for the next few years."

Do not acknowledge him; he is no longer the Nagato of the Uzumaki clan.

The person behind Nagato Uzumaki was Madara Uchiha, a powerful figure who was on par with the First Hokage.

I was utterly defeated; I almost didn't make it back alive.

Youjia nodded repeatedly.

She felt even more grateful to the fox.

The fox actually fought against Madara Uchiha for Nagato Uzumaki, a legendary figure. "Fox, be very careful. Revenge can wait."

"I understand the limits," Ye Guang said.

"Yu Jia, time is of the essence this time. Others don't know I survived. I need to get back to Konoha as soon as possible, otherwise Konoha will have to erect a tombstone for me."

So... we only have two days.

Go and deal with the body first, I'll wait for you in our hut!

When Yujia heard the fox say that time was tight and that she was very sorry, and then heard that the fox would wait for her in the secret hut, her heart raced and her legs went weak.

Her meeting with the fox was the only colorful scene in her difficult and bleak times... a slightly yellowish colorful scene.

Two days later, Nightlight left the vortex's hiding place and quickly headed towards the Land of Fire.

After entering the Land of Fire, Yagami encountered Konoha Village's first stronghold.

He went in to find out what happened next in the Nagato Uzumaki incident.

The Konoha Jonin at the stronghold confirmed Yagami's identity and exclaimed in amazement:

"Jonin Fox, a few days ago Jiraiya and Lynx Squad Leader passed through here and asked me to keep an eye out for intelligence from the Land of Rain."

They said you were highly likely to have died during the rearguard mission. Your ANBU subordinates wanted to return to the Land of Rain to find you, but the Lynx squad leader gave a death order that all ANBU must return to the village first.

I didn't expect you to be alive and unharmed.

Ye Guang said, "My attack power is average, but my defense is pretty good. It won't be that easy to kill me."

Once it was confirmed that Kashika, Jiraiya, and the others had escaped and returned, Yako was relieved.

It took another 7 days for Ye Guang to return to Konoha Village.

The outpost used a ninja hawk to send news of the fox's survival back to Konoha in advance.

The white sheep and the spotted deer were waiting at the village entrance early in the morning.

Seeing Captain Fox return safely, the two men breathed heavily.

"Captain! You're back!"

Ye Guang said, "It's just a small matter. Although Uchiha Madara is strong, he is over seventy years old after all. Who can he kill?"

Hua Shika said, "Captain, five people from Root died, and seven people from the Lynx Squad died. Although Uchiha Madara is old, he can still kill people."

When we returned to the village to report to the higher-ups, you have no idea how terrified Hokage and Danzo looked.

"Only Captain Fox could have come back alive."

Aries said, "Captain, the higher-ups want you to go to the Hokage Building as soon as possible. They are already waiting for you there."

"Okay, let's go to the Hokage Building first."

They leaped across the rooftops, moving quickly forward.

The Uchiha police ninjas on the street were about to grab the person when they saw that it was an Anbu moving at high speed, so they stopped talking.

No-fly zone is in effect in Konoha, except for high-ranking officials and members of the Anbu.

Upon entering the Hokage's office, Yagami saw quite a few people.

The Third Hokage, Danzo, Homura Mitokado, Kyo, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and a lynx.

With the addition of the Aries and the deer brought in by the glowing lights, the office felt a bit crowded.

The third generation said, "Fox, it's good that you're back. This time the losses were huge, and your return is a relief."

Ye Guang said, "Lord Hokage, Lord Yellow Dog, I am skilled in defensive ninjutsu, and I managed to escape using Earth Release."

The yellow dog nodded repeatedly.

He was devastated when he learned that the fox might have died at the hands of Madara Uchiha.

The fox was his most capable assistant; many tasks could only be done by the fox, and anyone else would be sent to their death.

Yellow Dog glanced at the Third Generation, thinking that even if his father had died, it couldn't be this painful.

Danzo asked, "Fox, where are the five Root ninjas?"
