Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu.

Chapter 414 Do you hold such a grudge against me?
When Ye Guang returned to Konoha Village, Zi Mao immediately delivered the latest intelligence summary.

Obito Uchiha, a member of the Uchiha clan, has gone missing.
The Anbu investigated the disappearance of Obito Uchiha. After reviewing the process, Yagami thought to himself that because of his appearance, all the events seemed to have been brought forward.

Obito Uchiha is suspected of awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan Kamui, and it is actually Kamui in both eyes.

In the original story, Kakashi graduated from the Ninja Academy at the age of 5, while Obito was always at the bottom of the class.

In the original story, Obito, at the age of fourteen or fifteen, was able to create chaos caused by the Nine-Tails, making him comparable to the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze.

Currently, Kakashi, as the son of a Konoha hero, is still at the Ninja Academy. Obito, on the other hand, awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan at the age of 8.

Obito Uchiha's grandmother fell down in the street, and no one helped her up. Obito asked around for help from the villagers he had helped before, but not a single one offered assistance.
To help or not to help is a big question, a big question in any world.

Whether or not to help someone in need unexpectedly gave birth to a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan.

Madara Uchiha has gained another capable subordinate.

The difference is that Ah Fei has a pair of kaleidoscopes, which is better than in the original story.

Obito Uchiha possessed two Mangekyou Sharingan and two Kamui, making him stronger than in the original story.

Both of them have the ability to come and go freely, but Flying Thunder God is more important to Yako.

If Hiruzen Sarutobi is willing to hand over the Flying Thunder God Technique, that would be best. But if he's not... Yagami's expression changed. The plan to destroy Konoha might not be impossible to bring forward.

Behind the memorial monument in Konoha Village.

Ye Guang stood in front of a tombstone, looking at the name on it.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke and Sarutobi Hoou, their joint grave.

It's called a tomb, but it's actually a cenotaph. The two bodies were reduced to ashes in the explosion of the Tailed Beast Ball.

I missed the wedding, and look, I missed the funeral too.

Yellow dog, do you hold such a grudge against me?

I am your confidant, your brother who is not related to you by blood.

Nightlight tilted her head slightly, and the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, instantly landed beside her.

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at the fox with a complicated expression from under the Hokage's hat.

Born in Konoha in 23rd year, the fox was originally a cannon fodder Chunin, but at the age of 20, he suddenly possessed terrifying strength capable of annihilating tailed beasts.

Without a doubt, the fox is now the number one person in Konoha Village.

When the fox was in the Land of Hot Water, the pressure it exerted on Hiruzen Sarutobi was far from being felt.

Now that the fox has returned to the village, the pressure from the fox is imminent. Just standing next to the fox makes Hiruzen Sarutobi feel very uncomfortable.

"I'm sorry, Hokage-sama. When Shinnosuke-sama sacrificed himself, I was on a mission at the Fire Temple..."

Upon hearing the fox's words, Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart softened somewhat, and he said:
"This is not your fault. Shinnosuke had no choice but to send you away at that time in order to eliminate other options for the Daimyo of the Land of Fire."

Shinnosuke's choice is correct; the Daimyo of the Land of Fire has already terminated his cooperation with the Fire Temple.

The ninja monks of the Fire Temple will not become the daimyo's guardian ninja.

"Fox, come with me. This isn't the place to discuss what's to come."

Nightlight nodded and said, "Yes, let Shinnosuke-sama rest in peace."

The Konohamaru from the original story is unlikely to appear.

Hiruzen Sarutobi will do his best to train his second son, Asuma Sarutobi.

Inside the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi pointed to the sofa: "Sit down, fox."

After the fox sat down on the sofa, Hiruzen Sarutobi said:

"Fox, you did a good job in the Land of Hot Springs. The only thing you shouldn't have done was to let the Cloud Ninja spies kill the former daimyo of the Land of Hot Springs in a fit of rage."

Ye Guang said, "It wasn't exactly 'allowing' them to do anything. I didn't know the Cloud Ninja spies would be so reckless. But that Daimyo is dead, and he deserved to die."

“Fox, I don’t mean to blame you. You’re an ANBU ninja, and this is how you always do things.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Guang understood that Hiruzen Sarutobi's arrangement for him was exactly as he had expected.

Hiruzen Sarutobi believed that he was not suited to handle matters outside of the Anbu.

Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "Fox, Shinnosuke has sacrificed himself. I want to appoint you as the head of the Anbu. Are you willing?"

There's no need for Nightlight to pretend anymore. With his current strength, it would be hypocritical for him to continue pretending, and Hiruzen Sarutobi wouldn't believe him anyway.

The fact that Hiruzen Sarutobi brought it up himself proves that Yagami's strength put immense pressure on him, leaving him no choice but to do so.

Ye Guang said, "Lord Hokage, I am very willing to serve as the head of the Anbu. I am capable of serving as the head of the Anbu when Konoha is weak."

Hiruzen Sarutobi, puffing on his pipe, presented his terms of exchange, saying, "I want Black Ant to be the vice-commander of the Dark Division."

From now on, you will be in charge of external affairs, dealing with enemies outside the village. Black Ant will be in charge of internal affairs, helping me control the village.

“Okay, I agree. Black Ant’s abilities are beyond question, and I can cooperate well with him.” Nightlight immediately proposed his exchange terms:

"Lord Hokage, the enemies outside the village are fierce. Madara Uchiha and his subordinates are all very troublesome. I want to see the Scroll of Sealing to increase my strength."

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned slightly, but didn't keep the fox waiting long before saying:
"Fox, you can choose a forbidden technique, and I can decide for you to learn a village's worth of forbidden techniques."

As you know, the Book of Seals is of paramount importance. Whether Konoha can survive for centuries depends crucially on the orderly transmission of the Book of Seals.

Ye Guang thought to himself, "Sarutobi Hiruzen is still so stingy."

He has several forbidden techniques that he desperately needs.

To take advantage of Hidan's immortality as a follower, the Eight Gates are needed.

To counter Obito Uchiha's dual Kamui, the Flying Thunder God Technique is needed.

In addition, techniques such as spiritification and impure world rebirth may prove very useful at some point.

Yagami looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi, and seeing that Hiruzen Sarutobi showed no sign of backing down, he changed his condition:

"Lord Hokage, I only need to learn one forbidden technique."

However, I will be operating outside the village most of the time, so the spy network should be under my control. Relying on the village's ninja hawks to transmit intelligence to me is too inefficient.

After thinking for a moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi decided that instead of giving the fox the Book of Seals, he would give it the Fox Spy System as a form of compensation.

"Alright, the spy system is yours," Hiruzen Sarutobi said.

"Fox, you must treat the spies sent out by our village well. They are the greatest heroes of Konoha during peacetime."

"I understand, Hokage-sama. I will also report to you at all times, and all intelligence from the spy network will be sent to the village."

“Alright, then it’s all settled.” Hiruzen Sarutobi asked, “Fox, which forbidden technique do you want to learn?”

The exchange concluded, with both parties getting what they needed and, through compromise, satisfying their own demands to the greatest extent possible.

Overall, Hiruzen Sarutobi also gained something from trying his best to meet the demands of Konoha's strongest ninja.

While there isn't everything that can be obtained through luminescence, there's no need to overturn the table in this situation.

Ye Guang said, "Lord Hokage, I wish to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique."

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned. The Flying Thunder God Technique was the core ability of the Second Hokage.

The fox has mastered the teacher's Water Severing Wave and the First Hokage's Wood Release. If it also masters the teacher's forbidden technique, Flying Thunder God, it might become a combination of the First and Second Hokage in the future.

Monster, a real monster.

Without the fox, Konoha wouldn't be able to weather its current slump.

Konoha can't even select a foreign affairs advisor.

"The Flying Thunder God Technique is extremely difficult to learn. Someone from the Senju clan once tried to replicate it, but during the process, their head was severed from their body. You must be careful," Hiruzen Sarutobi said with concern.

"Fox, you absolutely cannot get hurt. If something happens to you, Konoha Village might collapse."

Ye Guang said, "Lord Hokage, I will be careful, very careful."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded, his request sincere, and said, "Wait a few minutes, I'll go and copy down the Flying Thunder God Technique for you."

He walked towards the secret chamber on the side. A burst of light from the crack in the door emanated from the seal, which was Hiruzen Sarutobi breaking the sealing barrier outside the Book of Seals.

Five minutes later, Hiruzen Sarutobi came out with a small scroll in his hand.

Night Light stood up and took the forbidden scroll across the Hokage's desk.

Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "Fox, the forbidden techniques of Konoha must be passed down in an orderly manner."

If you wish to bestow the Flying Thunder God Technique upon someone, you must inform me and record it.

“Alright, I understand the importance of forbidden techniques,” Ye Guang said.

"Lord Hokage, since you've put Black Ant in charge of the Anbu's activities in the village, then let Black Ant work in the basement of the Hokage Building."

I anticipate leaving Konoha frequently, so occupying that office wouldn't be of much use to me. Therefore, I'll continue working at the Anbu base.

Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "Alright. Announce your and Black Ant's new appointments at tomorrow's Jonin team meeting."

Ye Guang returned to the Dark Division first, opened the Flying Thunder God scroll, and began to study the Flying Thunder God.
