Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu

Upon entering the second floor, the first thing I saw was the Elder Yuanshi on the platform.

After the death of the Third Mizukage, Genji had been managing the village. Genji wanted to become the Mizukage, but the major ninja clans disagreed.

Who knows how long Master Yuan will live? What if he lives for several more decades? How will the ninja clans ascend to the position of Mizukage?

Kushimaru then looked at the clan leaders of the major clans in the front row of the cabin.

The master declared that the person who performed best in the war against the Land of Whirlpools would become the Fourth Mizukage, which was clearly using a piece of fat meat to consume these ninja clans.

Kushimaru Kurihara is a member of the Master's faction, and he is happy to see the ninja clans suffer defeat.

After passing many Jonin and clan leaders sitting on cushions, Kushimaru Kurihara arrived at the front row.

"Elder Yuan! Hozuki Ryougetsu is dead! His twin swords, Hiramekarei, have been taken by Konoha!"

"What!" Hozuki clan leader Hozuki Miyazuki was the first to stand up: "How is this possible?"

He immediately conjured a scroll about half a person's height, opened it, and found seven characters representing the Seven Ninja Swords.

The character '长' (long) representing a long sword and sewing needle, '断' (broken) representing a broken sword and decapitation sword, and '钝' (dull) representing a blunt sword and slashing sword are all very dark in color.

This was a concession made by the Hozuki clan to the village: they would no longer summon the three ninja swords, and the three swords would belong to the village.

After he formed the hand seal, he placed his hand on the character '双' (double) representing the twin blades of the flounder. After a puff of white smoke, nothing happened.

The clan leaders of Kaguya, Karatachi, Terumi, and others standing nearby all coldly watched Hozuki Miyazuki, whose expression remained blank.

The double-sword flounder did not appear.

Hozuki Ryougetsu lost the twin swords Hiramekarei.

“Clan Chief Miyazuki, you cannot hand over such important ninja swords as twin blades to Hozuki Ryougetsu just because he is your second son.”

After the Kaguya clan chief made his sarcastic remarks, he found that no one responded. He looked around at the clan chiefs of the Karatachi, Terumi, and Minazuki clans. These people usually seized every opportunity to attack the Hozuki clan, so why were they silent today?

Yuan Shi glanced at Kaguya Clan Chief, thinking, "That idiot whose brain is full of bones."

Master Yuan said to Kushimaru Kurihara, "Tell me the details in detail, without omitting anything."

Kushimaru Kurishari said, "Hozuki Ryougetsu and I encountered a lone Konoha squad on the coast of the Land of Whirlpools, so we attacked them."

A Konoha ANBU squadron appeared.

The rest of the squadron were of average strength, but the squadron leader was none other than the Bronze Fox, who had made a name for himself in the War of the River Country.

Hozuki Ryougetsu told me to flank and kill the ordinary Konoha ninjas, while he dealt with Copper Fox.

The Bronze Fox is very strong. Before I could kill many people, the Bronze Fox appeared carrying two swords.

Seeing that the Bronze Fox was unharmed and its clothes weren't even wet, it was simply unbelievable. It seemed it had easily defeated Hozuki Ryougetsu, so I immediately returned to report.

“Copper Fox…” Master Yuan murmured the name, recalling the information about the Copper Fox.

The Sand Village frontline command once issued a special order: Konoha's Anbu member, Bronze Fox, possesses an absolute defensive secret technique, rendering ordinary attacks ineffective; be careful when encountering him.

Master Yuan said, "Next, we will issue an S-rank mission: select three Jonin to complete the task of retrieving the Twin Blades Hiramekarei."

The Jonin who performs best during the mission will become the successor to the Twin Blades Hiramekarei.

After overcoming his initial shock, Hozuki Miyazuki accepted the reality. Upon hearing his master's command, he was enraged once more:

"The successor to the Twin-Sword Hiramekarei? Elder Yuanshi, the successor to the Twin-Sword Hiramekarei is a matter for my Hozuki clan, so there's no need for the village to issue an S-rank mission!"

Yuan Shi said, "The Hiramekarei Twin Blades are such important ninja swords. Not only did your Hozuki clan fail to create elite Jonin with high combat power when you had them, you also lost them."

This is a disgrace to Kirigakure, and the village should take it over.

However, out of respect for your Hozuki clan, two of the three Jonin will be nominated by your Hozuki clan, and the other will be nominated by me.

If the two Hozuki ninjas you release perform poorly in the mission to retrieve the Hiramekarei twin swords, then you can't blame me.

During the Second Shinobi World War, Konoha had already fought against Kumogakure, Iwagakure, and Sunagakure, and this was when Konoha was at its weakest.

If we can't secure our share of the mission in the Land of Whirlpools by now, when will Kirigakure ever become prosperous?

Every ninja clan and every ninja must fight with the goal of winning the war.

"The Hozuki clan is a hindrance; they can't even wield the Seven Ninja Swords. So don't blame the village for being ruthless."

Hozuki Miyazuki was about to say, "Don't spout nonsense like the Mizukage," but the words stuck in his throat.

The Fourth Mizukage could not be chosen, and Genji continued and strengthened the Third Mizukage's Blood Mist Village policy.

Genji had a large number of cruel and tyrannical Jonin under his command, led by Kushimaru Kurihara and Juzo Biwa. Genji's power was not to be trifled with.

There were also life-or-death struggles between the major ninja clans.

Hozuki Miyazuki thought that since the Hozuki clan sent two Jonin to complete the mission of retrieving the twin swords, Hiramekarei, the twin swords, would most likely still belong to the Hozuki clan.

That damned bronze fox! Once I catch him, I'll soak him in the secret liquid of the Hozuki clan until his bones dissolve.

Chapter 173 Ambush

The southern coast of the Land of Whirlpools boasts beautiful beaches and emerald-green waters.

The northern coast of the Whirlpool Country, where Yeguang resides, is covered with dark, rocky reefs.

The road is difficult to travel due to the presence of numerous reefs.

Ye Guang carried two swords on his back, the swords wrapped in thick sealing bandages.

He stood on the highest reef, gazing at the sea.

Hey, a Mist Ninja is here! Come take a look!

Look at the outline under this bandage. Doesn't it remind you of your lost double-sword flounder?

I am the bait, a brightly lit bait.

A black line suddenly shot out.

Ye Guang felt a surge of joy; it had finally arrived.

An explosive tag kunai flew toward the luminous object on the reef.

After the deafening explosion, thick smoke engulfed the luminous lights and the reefs.

The Mist Ninja knew about the Bronze Fox, not to attack it, but to provide clues and mark it.

The first Mist Ninja to discover the Bronze Fox used explosive tags to mark the location of the Bronze Fox for the other Mist Ninja.

As the smoke cleared, the luminous figure reappeared.

The kunai did no harm to Ye Guang, but the impact of the explosive tag was a bit troublesome, making Ye Guang a little dizzy.

He saw the tsunami.

The sea surface churned, and a large amount of chakra was gathering.

Waves tens of meters high crashed onto the shore.

Three ninjas stood atop the waves.

In the moonlight, all three of them appeared to have sharp, shark-like teeth.

Many ninjas in Kirigakure have sharp fangs; it's unclear what bloodline they are.

Beneath the towering waves, Ye Guang suddenly lost focus.

He remembered a joke from his past life.

Please tell a very dirty joke in one word: Oh.

Are these female ninjas with shark teeth dangerous when they're around?

Nightlight shook his head repeatedly. "The sharp-toothed female mist ninja is no good match for me."

Mei Terumi in the original work doesn't have these sharp teeth, making her much more endearing in comparison.

Mei Terumi is a few years older than Kakashi and is probably at the Ninja Academy now.

Above the tsunami-like waves, three Kirigakure Jonin saw Copper Fox shaking his head, unsure whether it was mockery or not.

The Twin Blades Hiramekarei appears to be sealed away, preventing Copper Fox from using that powerful ninja sword.

The waves crashed down, and seawater covered an area of ​​several hundred meters along the coast, making this the home ground of the water-style ninjas.

Ye Guang turned and fled.

He wanted to lure the pursuing Mist Ninja onto land, otherwise the Mist Ninja would have too much of an opportunity to escape through the sea.

The huge waves crashed against the rocks, snapped the coconut trees on the shore, and rushed straight towards the moonlight.

The light was fast enough that the waves couldn't catch it.

Following closely behind the waves came a thick fog.

Behind the three Kirigakure Jonin were three battalions of Kirigakure ninja.

Ye Guang thought to himself, "The good news is that we caught a big fish, three Jonin. The bad news is that the fish is a bit too big, and it's easy to break the rod."

After luring three Mist Ninja squads ashore, Yoko fled into the distance.

The Mist Ninja were stubborn; even knowing that the Bronze Fox was bait, they still chased after it.

The already dark night was made even more difficult to see by the thick fog.

Nightlight couldn't just run headlong; she had to occasionally slow down by releasing water to let the Mist Ninja behind her catch up.

A ninja sword suddenly appeared in front of Ye Guang and slashed towards his abdomen.

In the dense fog with visibility of less than 2 meters, Ye Guang was completely unaware that someone had stealthily approached.

Without the secret technique of copper light, this strike would have been fatal.

The ninja sword was sharp, but brittle; it broke into three pieces when it struck Ye Guang's stomach.

Although they failed to harm Ye Guang, they successfully stopped him.

Two Mist Ninjas rushed out from the thick fog beside them.

Upon seeing the hand seals formed by the two, Ye Guang immediately became alert.

What he fears most now is not a real fight, but rather capture-type ninjutsu.

His information was spread by Sunagakure, and Kirigakure also devised a plan to deal with Copper Fox.

The hand seals formed by the two ninjas on the left and right were clearly those of the Water Prison Technique.

If you are trapped by the Water Prison spell, your absolute defense will be useless.

"Turong Tulong Spear!"

After forming three hand seals, the ground around Nightlight was suddenly covered with stone spears and thorns, forcing back two Mist Ninjas.

Just then, more than a dozen flames appeared in the coconut grove.

All the fire-style ninjas in the Yellow Dog Squad collectively used fire-style techniques at this moment.

Especially the yellow dog captain, whose every move made the air feel hot.

Fire Release·Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!

A thick, fiery dragon, tens of meters long, rushed straight towards the center of the dense fog.

More than twenty Konoha ninjas attacked the indistinct figures in the thick fog, each using either fireballs or great fireballs.

Ye Guang quickly used the unearthed substitute to disappear underground.

When he reappeared, he was already dozens of meters away.

With the fire-escape technique, the thick fog finally dissipated.

The Jonin closest to the night light spotted the Bronze Fox carrying the twin swords Hiramekarei.

"catch him!"

Hozuki Jonin formed hand seals, and another huge wave surged forth.

Once submerged by the great wave, when the wave recedes, Ye Guang may be trapped in a water prison spell, rendering all his defensive abilities useless.

If Yoruichi's Water Flicker Technique were visible in the light, these Mist Ninjas wouldn't be able to catch him at all.

Water Escape · Water Breaks Waves!

The water jet shot out, forcefully cleaving through the massive water surge of the Jonin Hozuki.
