In Konoha, you get one evolution point every day.

"Did that official offend someone?" the beautiful young woman asked, her arms crossed.

"No matter who we offend, this is our mission, isn't it, Yecang?" The young woman carrying the gourd smiled helplessly.

The red-haired youth at the head nodded.

"Galuro is right."

"No matter who we offend, completing the mission is our ninja's duty."

Luo Sha pondered for a while, then looked at Jia Lu Luo with a hint of fear in his eyes.

"but."

Rasa abruptly changed the subject: "Karura, are you sure you've controlled the power of the Tailed Beast?"

Now it is the era of the Third Kazekage. Bunpuku has long since passed away, and Karura is the new generation of Jinchūriki.

"Don't worry, my Magnet Release may not be as powerful as yours, but it's more than enough to restrain the One-Tailed Beast," Karura said with a smile.

"I hope so." Luo Sha exhaled a deep breath and continued discussing the mission.

......

In the afternoon, the three left the guesthouse and went to the home of official Shintaro Sano.

Not far from the house, Lin Fan and Tsunade were there.

"What's going on? Why did you follow those three Sand Ninja?"

"I have a feeling that the official we're looking for is here."

Lin Fan said to Tsunade.

"Huh?" Tsunade's lips twitched. What a joke! If it were that easy to find, what kind of super S-class mission would it be?

"Are you sure the Sano Shintaro we're looking for is here? This is clearly a house belonging to the Tanabe family." Tsuna pointed to the house number.

—Rasa said solemnly, “Mr. Sano, someone wants to assassinate you.”

—Shintaro Sano exclaimed in surprise: "Ah! I've been hiding here, and someone still wants to assassinate me?"

—Rasa nodded: "Yes, we received intelligence from Konoha that they sent two experts to assassinate you, which is why the village sent the three of us Jonin to protect you."

—Shintaro Sano angrily said, "Damn Konoha ninjas! Once my businesses are stable in the Land of Mountains, I'll make those people pay!"

— "..."

Listening to the conversation inside, Lin Fan shook his head: "That's right, this is the place."

He roughly understood why the daimyo of the Land of Fire wanted to kill Shintaro Sano.

The reason is that Shintaro Sano is an official under the daimyo of the Land of Wind, and is also in charge of all industries in the Land of Mountains.

The reason why ordinary people in the ninja world can rule over ninjas is simply because ordinary people are good at grasping power.

However, it also has drawbacks.

Due to underdeveloped communication,

Once Shintaro Sano dies, the people working at that business will not recognize anyone else.

If the industry falls into chaos, the Land of Fire can send people to take over.

The so-called valuation of several billion is because the Land of Wind found several valuable mineral veins in the Land of Mountains.

This can actually be seen as a competition between the two great powers. After all, it's impossible to be so ruthless as to kill all the capable people under their command, as that would be tantamount to the two great powers breaking off relations and giving the ninjas an opportunity to rebel.

Shintaro Sano is like an important pawn in the game between the two countries.

The Kingdom of Wind is responsible for protecting them.

The Land of Fire is responsible for the attack.

After Shintaro Sano's death, the Land of Fire seized his property.

Shintaro Sano survives; the Land of Wind retains its industries, while the Land of Fire forbids further competition.

"So, just because of the failure of 'a game,' Konoha's White Fang has to commit suicide, and Konoha ninjas have to sacrifice themselves?"

How ridiculous!

Lin Fan shook his head inwardly.

No wonder Hiruzen Sarutobi said he had to kill Shintaro Sano within a week.

It turns out that in the "rules," Sano Shintaro went to the Land of Rivers for a "patrol," and the people Konoha had been preparing for a long time failed to kill Sano Shintaro. After being attacked, Sano Shintaro "completed his patrol" and was able to return to the capital of the Land of Wind to stay at home and wait for the fruits of victory.

However, there are still two days left until the end of the period.

If we can kill Shintaro Sano within these two days, White Fang's mission can be revived.

......

Nighttime, the Hatake family home.

Sakumo Hatake brought Kakashi home from Konoha Hospital.

Good news, my son is in good health.

Bad news, the son turned into a daughter!

"You bastard, do you know what you're doing?!" Hatake Sakumo had held back his curses at the hospital, but now he couldn't hold back any longer.

Kakashi snorted coldly.

"Hmph! Get lost, I don't want to talk to you."

Kakashi then ran back to his room, and Sakumo Hatake did not stop him.

......

"No! This isn't right!" Kakashi returned to his room and started taking off his clothes to examine his body. When he saw that his penis was gone, he was dumbfounded.

"This isn't what we agreed on!!!"

Kakashi was devastated. He had only followed Lin Fan's advice to "pretend to be rebellious to save his father," but he hadn't been told to go from "pretending to be a rebellious teenager" to "pretending to be a rebellious girl for life"! What was he going to do when school started?!

dong dong dong.

It was Sakumo Hatake knocking at the door.

"Kakashi, let's talk."

In the past, Kakashi might have wanted to talk about it, but now, he has absolutely no intention of doing so.

"Get out! I don't want to see you!" Kakashi ran to his bed, covered himself with the blanket, and tried to comfort himself by thinking that he would recover after a good night's sleep.

......

"Achoo!" Lin Fan sneezed while waiting outside Shintaro Sano's house.

"You're here again," Tsunade said, leaning against the wall. "If you really can't take it anymore, I'll give you a checkup."

Lin Fan rubbed his nose.

He estimated that Kakashi had already taken the medicine by this time.

Could it be that even with a low probability, it succeeded? Is Kakashi really that unlucky?

"No need, I'm going on the mission right away. Did you manage to get any photos of the Third Kazekage?"

Tsunade nodded.

He reached into the black seam in the middle of the clothes, pulled out a photo, and tossed it to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan caught it and glanced at it.

The photo shows a person with short, dark blue hair and dark blue eyes. They are wearing a blue jumpsuit with a gray belt and a white outer robe.

"That's pretty cool."

Lin Fan's evaluation.

"Getting this thing wasn't easy," Tsunade said. "It cost me 100,000 ryo on the black market; I'll definitely get reimbursed when I get back... But are you sure you haven't heard the Third Kazekage's voice or seen him actually imitate it perfectly?"

It wasn't that Tsunade didn't believe him, but she knew that if Lin Fan made a mistake, he would face not only the three Jonin supporting Sano Shintaro's house, but also several Chunin in the surrounding area, as well as the ninja squad responsible for patrolling the city.

Lin Fan threw the photo back.

Tsunade caught it.

"Have you forgotten my voice, oh, ne, san?" Lin Fan said through the small clip.

"Ugh, don't call me that, it sounds weird." Tsunade felt goosebumps rising on her skin. "Hurry up, I'll be here to meet you."

"...Lin Xiaobai, don't go and cause trouble."

Tsunade looked down and saw Lin Xiaobai trying to follow.

Lin Xiaobai stood like a kangaroo, stomped her foot, crossed her arms, and turned her face away.

"Fine, I won't go then!"

This rabbit...

Tsunade covered her face.

......

There were two Chunin standing in front of Sano Shintaro's house.

"Stop! Who are you... Uh! Greetings, Lord Kazekage!" The two Sand Ninjas were about to stop him, but upon seeing who it was, they immediately stood up straight and greeted him.

"Shh. Don't call me Kazekage, just call me Lord." The Third Kazekage raised his hand to shush, then lowered it, revealing a serious face: "I'm here to ensure the success of this mission, as it concerns our Sunagakure's military budget for the next quarter."

"Kage-sama...you are wise!" A Sand Village Chunin said obsequiously, "Is there anything you need us to do, sir?"

"Yes, we can do anything," a Sand Village ninja chimed in.

"Keep this a secret for now. Don't tell the people inside. Just continue patrolling as if nothing's wrong," the Third Kazekage said calmly.

......

With the security at the entrance compromised, Lin Fan, disguised as the Third Kazekage, used stealth.

"Concealment - Evolution +4": "Your hiding skills have reached the limit of ordinary martial arts techniques. Even if you were standing in front of a martial arts master right now, as long as you don't move, the opponent would absolutely not be able to detect you."

Before, when facing Jiraiya, even if I stood next to him, Jiraiya wouldn't recognize me. Now, unless I encounter someone, he probably won't be able to see me either.

At this moment, Lin Fan's ears twitched slightly, but he remained standing still.

Da, da, da.

"Galuro, are you sure there's someone here?"

Yekura followed behind Karura.

Galuro shook his head.

"I'm not sure, but I think I just heard some noise here."

Besides being defined as a "crippled Magnet Release ninja" within the village, Karura is also a sensory ninja.

The two women's fragrances swept past, but Lin Fan remained unmoved.

The two women ran a lap around the corridor.

"No, there's no one here," Ye Cang said with certainty. "You must be mistaken."

Gallo shyly picked up a strand of brown hair with her fingers and twirled it around on her fingers.

"I...I'm so sorry, Yekura, for making you stay with me."

"It's alright, we're all doing this for the mission." Ye Cang shook his head and said, "Let's go back quickly, Luo Sha needs us to return."

"Um!"

Galuro nodded, and the two women ran back, leaving with a lingering fragrance.

Lin Fan glanced sideways at Ye Cang's beautiful back as she disappeared down the corridor.

It's not his fault; the automatic locking function was activated.

After all, the two women were dressed quite conservatively; apart from their beautiful backs, nothing else could be seen.

Lin Fan actually knew what the two of them were talking about.

A few minutes later, a scream faded into a groan, and Lin Fan swaggered out of Sano Shintaro's house.

"Lord Kaze... are you leaving?" A Chunin from Sunagakure asked in a low voice as he saw the Third Kazekage emerge.

The Third Kazekage paused for a moment.

"Yes, it went very smoothly. The target is still alive after my inspection. You did a great job."

Upon hearing this, the two Sand Village Chunin felt genuinely honored.

"Thank you for your kind words, sir."

"Shh! Keep your voice down. Don't tell anyone about this. Understand?" The Third Kazekage instructed seriously.

"Oh!" The two Sand Village Chunin immediately covered their mouths and made a zipping motion with their mouths. The Third Kazekage nodded in satisfaction, and his figure gradually disappeared into the night.

Lin Fan returned to Tsunade and deactivated the transformation jutsu.

Lin Fan came out in less than ten minutes.

"Is it resolved?" Tsunade asked.

"Yeah, the task is simple, but I feel a bit nauseous." Lin Fan nodded and touched his stomach.

"It's normal. Everyone's like this the first time they kill someone. You'll get used to it." Tsunade shrugged. "Should we wait until you've calmed down before you leave?"

Lin Fan shook his head.

Are you kidding me? Assassination is easy, but if you're exposed, you'll be beaten up by the mob here at any time. It's better to run away as soon as possible.
