Nightlight wasn't worried about the Aries Squad and the Deer Squad; they had no qualms about killing Nara ninjas.
But Luminous was still worried about Purple Cat.
Purple Cat is a ninja from the Yamanaka clan. He might hesitate at crucial moments when he attacks the Nara clan.
Hesitation leads to defeat; if this clandestine execution mission fails, Purple Cat's future is over.
The light quickly darted across the Gobi Desert on the border and soon found the Purple Cat Squad.
The Purple Cat Squad's battle was indeed not going well.
Amidst the boulders, a Rain Ninja squad is confronting three Konoha ninja.
The three ninjas of Konoha are the Konoha Ino-Shika-Cho trio.
Akimichi ninjas and Yamanaka ninjas protected the Nara ninjas behind them.
The light in the night shimmered—it was her!
The ninja from the Yamanaka clan was named Yamanaka Ryu, and she was the younger sister of Shinobu Yamanaka Ri.
Danzo went to the Yamanaka clan to select members for his ANBU (Anbu, secret service). Yamanaka Rie, as the eldest among her peers, volunteered and solved a major problem for the clan leader, Yamanaka Ien.
Ye Guang thought that Zi Mao would go easy on the Nara ninja, but now it seems that he went easy on his own sister.
Ryu Yamanaka shouted:
"Nara Jun, we've just formed the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, and we're determined not to be defeated on our first mission. We'll protect you!"
The Rain Ninja Squad was targeting Nara Jun, and Yamanaka Ryu stepped forward at this moment.
The chubby boy, Akimichi Tamaki, added from the side, "We'll protect you!"
Nara no Jun's eyelids drooped.
What great teammates they are! Unlike the civilian ninjas from before, who were as stupid as maggots and whose missions could only be completed by using the Shadow Imitation Technique to control them.
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a suitable "pig-deer-cutter" combination since I graduated.
At this point, he encountered two genin who were two years younger than him, and they finally solved his biggest problem.
Nara Jun said, "I don't need your protection. I'm a few years older than you, so of course I'll deal with the Rain Ninja."
He pushed Yamanaka Ryu's shoulder aside and shielded her behind him.
This time, he absolutely will not let his teammates die.
This time, he will be the most reliable deer among the pig-deer-butterfly trio.
Purple Cat didn't notice the arrival of Nightlight. Holding a kunai, she glanced at Yamanaka Ryu before continuing her charge towards the Ino-Shika-Cho trio.
Akimichi Tamaki shouted and transformed into a human bomb tank, charging towards the four Rain Ninja.
Purple Cat slightly adjusted its direction and ran to the side without slowing down. The Human Bomber Chariot, which was turning slowly, rushed past Purple Cat.
Nara Jun was taken aback. It wasn't surprising that he dodged the human bomb tank, but the timing and the composure of his dodge were something only someone with a deep understanding of the situation could do.
Nara Jun squatted on the ground and used a shadow technique.
His shadow stretched long, rapidly reaching towards the purple cat on the ground.
The purple cat turned again, dodging all the stones, and came to the most open space on the side.
Without the stone's shadow as a transit point, Nara Jun's shadow threat is reduced.
He was shocked again. Why was this Mist Ninja so familiar with the Shadow Imitation Technique?
How do they know how to avoid the sudden extension of a shadow?
While the purple cat was hiding, Yamanaka Ryu completed the Yamanaka clan's secret technique.
"Heart Turning Technique!"
Yamanaka Ryu raised his hands, forming a rectangle with his thumbs and forefingers in front of him, and aimed at the Mist Ninja squad leader.
Purple Cat threw out the kunai at just the right moment, heading straight for Yamanaka Ryu's rectangular hand seal.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the kunai will pierce through the rectangular handprint and strike Yamanaka Ryu's forehead.
Nara Shun raised his hand and used a kunai to block the Mist Ninja's kunai.
Too slow. The flight speed of the kunai is clearly not commensurate with the strength of the Mist Ninja squad leader.
Nara Jun's mind was racing; he racked his brains, trying to analyze enough information.
His pupils suddenly contracted.
Could it be... that the Mist Ninja in front of us is actually a Konoha ninja in disguise?
It's even possible that they were ninjas from the Ino-Shika-Cho clan in disguise, which would explain their familiarity with their secret techniques.
If it was a Konoha ninja in disguise... then... Nara Jun was startled. Could it be that his actions in the previous missions had been exposed?
Was it the village that wanted to kill him, or the Nara clan that wanted to eliminate him and wipe out their family?
The Mist Ninja Squad was clearly targeting him, but they didn't seem to have much killing intent towards Yamanaka Ryu and Akimichi Tamaki.
Nara Jun's mind had never been as clear as it was now.
He looked at Yamanaka Ryu.
The Mist Ninja squad leader has the least killing intent towards Yamanaka Ryu. We can try to use Yamanaka Ryu to kill the Mist Ninja squad leader first and obtain information about him.
As several Mist Ninja rushed towards him, he dodged and turned twice, ending up behind Yamanaka Ryu.
Purple Cat nearly threw her kunai at Yamanaka Ryu. In that instant, Purple Cat finally understood why the Anbu had given her the mission to kill Nara Nobu.
This person is too clever; he's an absolute, sophisticated egoist.
Yamanaka Ryu and Akimichi Tamaki once again protected Nara behind them.
Nara Jun was older and a head taller than the two people in front of him, making it seem as if he was being protected by two children behind him.
Just then, an umbrella-shaped ninja tool shot out rapidly, piercing between the Ino-Shika-Cho trio.
The large umbrella suddenly opened, its surface shoving Yamanaka Ryu and Akimichi Tamaki forward.
Nara Jun was knocked backward by the umbrella.
Purple Cat turned her head and glanced around, spotting another Rain Ninja.
It's the company commander!
Purple Cat was heartbroken. He had seen his sister, but failed several times because he was too soft-hearted to act.
Before setting off, the squadron leader deliberately reminded himself not to be soft-hearted because of his identity as a member of a mountain tribe, but he still hesitated during the mission.
She charged fiercely at Nara Jun and threw all her throwing ninja tools at him.
Seeing such a good opportunity, the three Mist Ninja members also attacked Nara Jun.
Akimichi Tamaki, the chubby boy, rolled on the ground, trying to get up, but a hand pressed down on his shoulder.
A sharp pain shot through him, and Akimichi felt that if he struggled any further, his shoulder blade would be crushed.
However, Akimichi Kenji hardened his heart and stood up, pushing against the large hand on his shoulder.
Even if it means breaking a bone, I can't bear to watch my teammate die in front of me.
Seeing how fierce the little fat boy was, Ye Guang had no choice but to give him a chop to the neck, knocking him unconscious.
Then, Nightlight looked at Yamanaka Ryu, who had already raised his hand, and used the Body Flicker Technique to stand in front of Yamanaka Ryu.
Yamanaka Ryu's rectangular secret technique hand seal was affixed to Yoru's chest.
She looked up in horror and saw a pair of terrifying eyes reflected in the gas mask.
He raised his hand and chopped Yamanaka Ryu in the neck with a chop, causing Yamanaka Ryu to faint.
When Ye Guang turned around, he saw Nara Jun, who had been pricked into a hedgehog.
With a final thrust of his swords, the purple cat plunged the ninja blades into Nara Jun's neck.
Two-thirds of the blade pierced through the back of Nara Jun's head.
A Konoha squad was approaching from a distance.
Purple Cat quickly signaled for everyone to retreat.
After retreating to a distance, Purple Cat said to Nightlight, "I'm sorry, Captain, I..."
"Be careful next time," Ye Guang said.
"I was also at fault for not getting the latest information. Nara Jun actually formed the Ino-Shika-Cho trio with your sister."
"It's too dangerous for someone like Nara Jun to be around your sister."
Chapter 153 Admiration
After completing the mission of executing several Nara ninjas, just like in his previous life, Yagami received the mission to rescue Nara Baika.
Nightlight led the Aries team off, pretending to wander aimlessly, but actually heading straight for the lumber mill they had visited in their previous life.
Outside the lumber mill, several timber merchants were queuing up to enter the mill and pick up timber.
Nara Baika created the identity of a timber merchant for herself, sitting in a covered carriage with 10 camels in the caravan behind her.
She frowned, pondering what she had seen and heard over the past few days, her heart filled with both worry about whether the Nara clan's scandal would be exposed and her own safety.
Originally, he went to investigate the Sand Ninja's imitation of paragliders, but he was discovered by the Sand Ninja and chased all the way. His teammates were killed, and he was forced into the depths of the Land of Wind.
Here, an anomaly was discovered in the market for Huangjian wood, and for the sake of Konoha, a new investigation had to be launched.
Just as she was in a daze, her side suddenly went dark.
The carriage curtain was blocked!
Nara Baika suddenly drew her kunai and stabbed the person beside her.
Ding!
After the crisp sound, Nara Baika saw the tip of the kunai being knocked away.
His own hand was also shaken and was sore.
Looking again, he saw that the person beside him had caught his kunai with his throat and then immediately raised his hand to grab the tip of the flying kunai blade.
The skin on his throat had a dark, coppery hue.
This ability... Nara Meika thought to herself, isn't this the Copper Fox, a rising star in the Anbu who has just made a name for himself?
"Don't get excited, relax, we're on the same side."
Nara Umeka let out a long sigh of relief.
The Bronze Fox is so powerful that it found her so quickly.
In this life, the plot gives him an advantage; Yagami finds Nara Umeka three days earlier than in the previous life, making him more efficient.
After briefly listening to the information Nara Baika had gathered, Ye Guang began to fabricate:
"The price of Huangjian wood is based on the demand from the puppeteers of Sunagakure."
You mentioned that someone is buying up large quantities of Huangjian wood, which might mean that Sunagakure is preparing for a big move.
No need to waste time here, come with me.
Nara Baika stepped down from the carriage, abandoning the camel caravan. All the effort she'd put into arranging the caravan had been wasted.
Led by Ye Guang, the Aries Squad and Nara Baixiang headed straight for the only road leading from Sunagakure to Sandport.
Soon, they saw a huge procession.
Like a corpse-driving procession, the puppeteers, surrounded by puppets of various shapes, advanced through the yellow sand.
Ye Guang put down his binoculars and said:
"On the border of the Land of Rivers, we in Konoha have the advantage, as Commander-in-Chief Nara Shikazuchi has made impeccable arrangements."
If they want to take action, they will inevitably take risks, and they have no choice but to take risks.
Since Shapo Port was just destroyed by Konoha, we have reduced our defensive efforts in that direction.
The Sand Village might use Sandport to launch a counterattack.
After listening to Copper Fox's analysis, Nara Meika stared at Copper Fox in shock.
