Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu

These two are quite capable and experienced, and even Ye Guang has to make them squad leaders because of Huang Quan.

After the hippopotamus and yak left, Purple Cat asked, "Captain, can only four people from our squadron stay in the Dark Division?"

"No," Ye Guang said.

"Our squadron will keep two squads, with Aries and Deer as squad leaders."

Purple Cat, do you want to stay in the Anbu, or do you want to retire from the Anbu and become an ordinary ninja?

If you stay in the Dark Division, I will let you continue to be my assistant, responsible for the squad's mission registration and report writing.

"If you want to return to your clan and become an ordinary ninja, I will apply for many mission rewards for you."

Purple Cat asked uneasily, "And what about you, Captain? What do you want me to choose?"

Nightlight reached out and wrapped his arm around Purple Cat's slender waist, saying:

"Of course I want you to stay by my side. As my assistant, you won't be carrying out any particularly dangerous missions."

As the squad leader, I will try my best to be fair, but you are so special that I am willing to use special privileges for you.

Favoritism is love.

Purple Cat wanted to stay in the Dark Division, both from a personal emotional perspective and from the perspective of her family's arrangements.

"Okay! Then I'll continue to be your assistant!"

"The war in the Land of Whirlpools is almost over, Purple Cat. Tonight, we'll lay down our armor."

"Remove armor? What armor removal?"

"It means to shed the battle armor."

He picked up the purple cat by the waist, walked behind the curtain on the side, and threw the purple cat onto the cushion.

"Come on, I love watching you take off your armor!"

Half an hour later, Ye Guang left the tent feeling refreshed, while Zi Mao was too exhausted to put on his armor.

The fox is too strong; Purple Cat really wishes she were a ninja specializing in taijutsu.

Three days later, the Fox Brigade arrived at Lujing Port in the Land of Whirlpools.

The dock has been cleared out and is now exclusively for use by Konoha and Kirigakure.

A large ship sailed in from the sea, and standing at the bow of the ship was the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon.

Suigetsu Hozuki looked at the Konoha Anbu squad on the shore, especially Copper Fox in the center, and assessed his chances of winning if he were to fight Copper Fox to the death.

According to intelligence reports, the Bronze Fox not only possesses an absolute defensive technique, but also has formidable water-based abilities.

After considering all the possibilities, Watermelon Pufferfish Demon realized that he seemed unable to kill Copper Fox.

After reaching the shore, Suigetsu Hozuki said:

"We are here to fulfill the ceasefire agreement with Konoha Village."

The 21 Konoha prisoners are hereby handed over to you, Konoha.

240 million taels, for Konoha.

2 million taels, to the Land of Whirlpools.

"Take inventory, Copper Fox. I don't want to waste time here."

Nightlight waved his hand, signaling Purple Cat to lead a squadron to conduct a thorough inventory.

The 21 Konoha prisoners did not suffer serious injuries.

Purple Cat led out 15 Mist Ninja prisoners.

Without inspecting the prisoners, the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon glanced at them with disdain and signaled his men to herd them onto the ship.

The indemnity came in boxes, each containing 500 million taels of silver.

Purple Cat led the group to open each one and carefully check them.

Ye Guang picked up a stack of money and looked at the portrait of the Water Country lord on it.

The currency of the ninja world is issued by the five great nations, and what's amazing is that there is no exchange rate between the currencies of the five great nations.

The five Grand Secretaries of the Treasury hold regular annual meetings to agree on the total amount of currency to be issued.

The monetary negotiations were also characterized by heated debates, with neither side willing to give in.

The powerful Land of Thunder and Land of Fire issue a large amount of currency. The weaker Land of Water and Land of Wind issue a small amount of currency.

Under pressure from the ninjas, the daimyo of various countries tacitly maintained cooperation, forming a seemingly loose alliance that actually supported each other.

Each country prints its own currency in accordance with the results of the monetary talks.

The currency has the same face value; the difference lies in the portrait of the person printed on it.

Under the intense pressure from the ninjas, the daimyo of various countries tried their best to avoid unnecessary losses.

If there's a conflict, let the ninjas fight it out; whatever the outcome, we'll accept it.

After the compensation was handed over, Ye Guang also took off the double-bladed flounder from his back.

He was about to unseal the bandages when he was stopped by the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon.

"Don't move! Give me the sealed twin swords!"

"Are you so afraid of the Hozuki clan's summoning technique, the Twin-Sword Flounder?" Nightlight asked.

“During the war in the Land of Whirlpools, you successively seized the Great Sword Samehada and the Twin Swords Hiramekarei from the Hozuki clan. Even as an outsider, I think you went too far.”

Suigetsu Hozuki said, "You don't need to worry about that. It's not as bad as you going too far as wiping out the Uzumaki and Senju clans."

“Slander, you really know how to spout nonsense.”

Chapter 198 The Bamboo Forest Stone Panda Clan

"I am back!"

Late at night, three days before the New Year, Yoko returned to Tsurugi Izakaya.

Qiaoyi was closing the door of the izakaya when she suddenly saw Miqu and ran over happily.

"I heard that the final war, the War of the Land of Whirlpools, has ended! Miku, did you return from the battlefield of the Land of Whirlpools?"

Ye Guang picked up Qiao Yi, slammed the door shut behind him, and whispered:

"Qiaoyi, you're not a spy anymore, so why are you still asking where I went and what mission I carried out?"

Your most important task now is to prepare for my complete and thorough instruction!

"Haha." Qiaoyi's eyes shone brightly. The war was over, finally over. She said, "Give me everything you know? Is your knowledge even a proper knowledge base?"

"I've been holding back for months because of you..."

Ye Guang thought to himself, if you don't count the times he gave to Xiao Jingzhisha and Zi Mao, he really had been holding back for several months.

After investigating for more than ten minutes, Ye Guang discovered that Qiao Yi had started training again, and her physical strength had improved significantly compared to before.

This is exactly what Ye Guang wants.

Purple Cat was too focused on the secret arts of the mountains, and his physical strength was still lacking.

The next day, Ye Guang arrived at the Dark Base in the Death Forest early.

He learned from the yellow dog that the downsizing of the Anbu would take place after the New Year, and all the surviving Anbu ninjas would have a peaceful New Year.

The secret service will not take any action before the New Year.

The moonlight completely relaxed.

He left the Anbu and came to the dense forest behind the Hokage Rock.

He used his shadow clones to scout the surroundings and waited for half an hour. After confirming that no one was around, he used a summoning jutsu.

Two stone pandas, one large and one small, appeared through the spirit. The luminous creature said to the white porcelain:

"Bai Ci, you stay here. Summon me back tonight. Bai You, go back to the Rain Kingdom first and summon me back there."

Bai Ci said, "Are you going to the bamboo forest of our Stone Panda clan? That's great! I was just thinking of asking you to go to the bamboo forest to see how we are surviving. If our Stone Panda clan encounters danger in the future, can you help us?"

Ye Guang wanted to see You Jia, but since the conversation had already started, he agreed: "Okay, let's go see your bamboo forest first."

Bai Ci said to Bai You beside him, "Bai You, go and summon the fox. The fox is a Jonin of Konoha, and it's very strong."

Bai You nodded and said, "Then I'll go back first and go to the Reverse Spirit Communication."

Not long after, Ye Guang felt the contract tremble; somewhere, a spirit beast had used reverse spirit communication on him.

Ye Guang said, "Bai Ci, you must be careful to hide."

Bai Ci said, "Don't worry, I can become deeply petrified, just like a stone, making me very difficult to detect."

The luminous light relaxed the body, responding to the reverse channeling.

After a puff of white smoke, the moonlight disappeared into the depths of the dense forest.

The next instant, the night light appeared in the distant southwest of the Land of Rain.

Before me lay a dense, verdant bamboo forest.

A light drizzle was falling, the bamboo leaves were fresh, and the bamboo stalks were emerald green; the environment here was quite pleasant.

There are many bamboo houses built on the ground floor in the bamboo forest.

Upon discovering that outsiders had entered, many stone pandas came out of their bamboo houses and stood on the platform, curiously watching the luminescence.

Stone Panda, a summoned beast that Nagato's Animal Path once contracted in the original work.

In the bamboo forest, this group of spirit beasts numbers more than 60.

Baiyou explained from the side, "Lord Fox, Lord Baici is our clan leader. Our Stone Panda clan hides deep in the bamboo forest and had no intention of participating in the war between ninjas."

A little over a month ago, a young woman entered the bamboo forest and made a pact with us using powerful sealing techniques.

Lord Fox, you have become the second contracted ninja of our Stone Panda clan.

Chief Baici said that the Stone Panda clan could not hide in the remote bamboo forest forever, and would be found by the ninjas sooner or later. He suggested that they try to understand the ninjas.

Lady Yujia didn't make us do anything special, she just taught us psychic magic and reverse psychic magic.

Ye Guang asked, "Bai Ci said that when you encountered danger, you wanted me to help you. Do you have any natural enemies?"

Bai You remained silent, simply staring at the moonlight.

"Alright, I understand. Your number one enemy is ninjas. So, what's your number two enemy?"

Bai You said, "The Yellow-throated Marten is a ninja beast that is incredibly fast and adept at creating clones."

We stone pandas have strong defenses, but we are slow. When we encounter a yellow-throated marten, we can neither catch it nor outrun it.

The yellow-throated marten's teeth are extremely sharp, and it always manages to find an opportunity to bite the inside of our joints, which cannot be petrified.

Ye Guang lifted Bai You's arm and saw that Bai You's upper arm and forearm were encased in hard stone, as hard as porcelain.

However, joints such as elbows, wrists, and armpits are not covered with porcelain stone for ease of movement.

Ye Guang asked, "Bai You, do you possess any ninjutsu?"

"We instinctively possess hardening techniques—body hardening techniques, ground hardening techniques, and bamboo hardening techniques. We usually use hardened bamboo as weapons," Bai You said.

"The White Porcelain Clan Chief also knows bamboo needle technique, shooting out sharp bamboo like flying needles."

"It sounds like Bai Ci is quite capable. Come on, take me to see the yellow-throated marten. Why does Bai Ci value it so much?"

A look of fear appeared on Baiyou's face, but considering that the ninja beside her was a Konoha Jonin, she took Yeguang to find the Yellow-throated Weasel.

Not long after leaving the bamboo forest, Ye Guang suddenly turned his head and saw a dark figure flash past from the bushes beside him.

"The yellow-throated marten has spotted us!"

Seeing that Bai You was a little scared, Ye Guang said, "Don't worry, it's just a ninja beast."

Bai You said, "It's not just one, it's a whole group!"

Once he reached a slightly more open area, Nightlight stopped advancing; he would deal with the yellow-throated marten here.

At the edge of the field of vision, a one-meter-long yellow-throated marten slowly revealed its slender body.

Ye Guang thought Bai You was making a fuss over nothing. How strong could a ninja beast of that size be?
