"I."
"You? You want to kill him?" Parker stared at the fox and said, "Then why don't you just not kill him?"
"No, I am the captain of the Dark Division, I must kill him."
"I understand. You mean, you want Sakumo to create a reason why you can't kill him, so that you can also give an answer."
"Good dog, smart."
Parker's chubby cheeks twitched. Calling him a dog was a bit of an insult; he was an extremely intelligent ninja dog.
But he really is a dog.
Parker angrily dispelled the psychic spell.
Chapter 212 Mission Failed
Shinma arrived near the memorial monument in Konoha Village.
He found a tombstone behind the memorial, with his new name written on it.
"Brother, I've been recommended by Lord Sakumo to become a Jonin. You've always been strict with me since I was little, but I never imagined that you would die as a Chunin while I'm about to become a Jonin."
I will also set high standards for my two children, hoping they can surpass us.
Xinma looked at Xinming's photo, placed a bouquet of flowers, and left the memorial.
He received a mission from a village to scout out enemy positions at Kikyo Mountain, a stronghold on the border of the Land of Fire.
Kikyo Mountain Fortress is the most remote fortress in the Land of Fire, located right next to the Land of Rivers.
Xinma arrived at the village entrance and saw his three team members for this mission.
"Let's go, and come back quickly."
Shinma thought to himself that although the Jonin Exams wouldn't be canceled because of his missions and would be automatically postponed, he should still try to catch up with the first wave of exams as soon as possible.
Be polite and give the Jonin squad leader and higher-ups a good impression.
The Hippo Squad arrived at the gates of Konoha a few minutes later.
Just as the Hippo Team was about to set off, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them.
"team leader?"
Ye Guang glanced at Hippo and the three members of the Dark Force and said, "I'll go too. This mission is somewhat dangerous."
The mission to assassinate Shinmei must fail.
Yagami was unwilling for a special Jonin like Shinmei to die due to infighting among the village's higher-ups.
To ensure everything goes perfectly, I decided to make the trip myself.
If the luminous task cannot be completed, then the higher-ups will consider this task to be truly difficult.
The Singapore-Malaysia team traveled westward to the southwestern border of the Land of Fire.
Upon entering Kikyo Mountain Fortress, the garrison ninja said to Shinma:
"I cannot stray too far from the fortress. There are Sand Ninjas lurking about 50 kilometers away from the fortress."
Therefore, I requested assistance from the village, asking them to send someone to investigate whether the Sand Ninja were plotting anything.
After listening to the explanation from the stationed Jonin, Shinma said, "I understand, I'll go right now."
Looking out from the Kikyō Mountain Fortress, you can see Kikyō Port, the busiest port in the southeast of the Land of Fire. This port is the primary target protected by the Kikyō Mountain Fortress.
The garrison ninja was a Jonin from the Sarutobi clan. He looked at the shimmering sea in the distance, his eyes gleaming.
After leaving the Orange Mountain Fortress, the Xinma team headed west.
The hippopotamus, following far behind, said, "Captain, I've already made the arrangements."
The Sand Ninja would obtain detailed information about the Singapore-Malaysia Squad from spies.
Shinma is a subordinate of Konoha's White Fang and knows information about him.
Chiyo and Ebizo, knowing this information, would certainly not let this opportunity pass, and would send out a large number of Sand Ninja to capture Shinma.
What we need to do is confirm whether Xinma was captured or killed by the Sand Ninja.
If the Anbu (Anbu) wants to execute a Konoha ninja, they rarely take direct action.
By using spies to send out intelligence during missions, it is easy to eliminate a Konoha ninja through the hands of the enemy.
The power to assign missions is one of the most important powers of the Hokage, a power that all the ninjas in the village either fear or rely on.
Hippo said, "Konoha's spy system is controlled by Root. If only our Anbu could also control spies, I wouldn't have to contact Root so often."
Ye Guang thought to himself that espionage was his weakness, and he wondered if Yakushi Nono had seen the letter he left at the orphanage.
Since his last conversation with Parker, Parker has not contacted him again, and he has no idea how White Fang will rescue Xinma.
The village wouldn't allow Sakumo Hatake to leave at this time.
The first Jonin meeting after the war, a bloody battle, will determine the village's power structure for the next few years.
The side with more Jonin will have a significant advantage.
It's unclear who the reinforcements Sakumo Hatake arranged were.
A troop of elite Sand Ninja crossed the rivers of the Land of Rivers and headed straight for Mount Kikyo.
"Quick! The spy risked his life to bring back intelligence: White Fang's men are near Kikyo Mountain. We must capture him!"
White Fang of Konoha was the most hated enemy of Sunagakure. He killed Chiyo's son and daughter-in-law, almost severing the top lineage of puppeteers.
Everyone in the village says that Sasori, the grandson of Chiyo, is a puppetry genius, but no one knows how far Sasori can go.
If you capture White Fang's subordinates and extract information about White Fang from them, you're guaranteed an S-rank mission reward.
On a distant mountain peak, Hippo lowered his binoculars and said, "Captain! The Sand Ninja are here!"
A Sand Ninja squadron appeared at the edge of the horizon.
Ye Guang picked up his binoculars and saw that the Xinma team had also spotted the Sand Ninja. After confirming their numbers, they immediately retreated towards Kikyo Mountain.
The Sand Ninja were powerful and quickly caught up with the Shinma Squad.
The three genin in Shinma's team are too weak; they're completely dragging Shinma down.
This was a mission jointly arranged by the Anbu and Root. The three weak genin were also part of the Anbu's plan.
The battle broke out quickly.
Shinma drew his ninja sword.
Most commoner ninjas diligently practice taijutsu, are skilled in ninja tools and swordsmanship, and have very solid basic skills.
Shinma drew his ninja sword and stood in front of the three genin, telling them to go to the Kikyo Mountain fortress to report the situation there, while he covered their retreat.
The three genin left, while Shinma rushed towards the Sunagakure ninja.
Ye Guang thought to himself, if he doesn't make it in time for Hatake Sakumo's arrangements, then Shinma will die here.
Flames suddenly erupted from the knife in Xinma's hand.
No wonder Xinma is expected to be promoted to Jonin; it turns out he has mastered a special Fire Release ninjutsu that allows him to attach Fire Release chakra to his ninja sword.
The strength of Singapore and Malaysia surprised the Sand Ninja; however, at most, it only brought them some trouble.
There are three Jonin in the Sand Ninja Squadron.
"Hmm?" Hippo suddenly said, "Something's not right. Why are some of the enemies from Singapore and Malaysia falling down for no apparent reason?"
The encirclement broke through, and Xinma broke free and escaped.
Hippo said, "Captain, should we change into Sand Ninja outfits and go kill Shinma to ensure the mission's success?"
Ye Guang shook his head repeatedly and said, "Hippo, take a closer look. If you miss any crucial information and rush in rashly, not only will the mission fail, but we will also be exposed."
Hippo continued looking over, watching Shinma flee in a sorry state, and said, "Sorry, Captain, I can't see anything, but the Sand Ninja are indeed dying inexplicably."
Ye Guang said, "During the war in the Land of Whirlpools, I cooperated with a Jonin with a bloodline limit."
The Hidden Release bloodline of Konoha allows one to become completely invisible and launch attacks silently.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, there is a ninja with the ability to pass through obstacles near Singapore and Malaysia.
Retreat; mission failed.
"We cannot kill a Jonin who uses the Transparent Release technique to silence him, even if he is protecting Shinma."
"Touretsu Jōnin? Gekko Sect?"
Hippo was extremely annoyed. How could he have run into the Jonin Gekko-no-Mikoto here?
That's a Jonin who has mastered the Transparent Escape Technique and possesses a sharp swordsmanship.
It wasn't that they couldn't defeat the Moonlight Sect, but as the captain said, they couldn't find the Moonlight Sect members who had escaped through the escape technique, so they couldn't silence them.
The inability to silence witnesses means mission failure and exposure of oneself.
On the way back, Ye Guang breathed a sigh of relief.
Among Sakumo Hatake's subordinates were several Jonin, with Gekko-michi being one of the best.
No ninja can complete a mission 100% of the time. The Fox Squad occasionally makes mistakes, and there's nothing that can be done when they encounter unforeseen circumstances.
Chapter 213 Alliance
Back at the village's secret base, Nightlight entered Yellow Dog's office.
"Minister, the design for the Special Jonin in Singapore and Malaysia has failed."
The yellow dog looked up in surprise, while the fox, who rarely missed, asked, "Why?"
"Shinma is quite strong, fighting the Sand Ninja to a standstill. I was originally planning to finish him off and assassinate him, but the Transcendental Kekkei Jonin, Gekko-no-Mikoto, suddenly appeared," Ye Guang said regretfully.
"After assessment, I abandoned the assassination attempt."
The Moonlight Sect had long been known as the Shadowless Assassins, possessing the special ability to pass through obstacles.
I suspect that after completing the previous mission, the Moonlight Sect secretly traveled from the Kikyō Port dock to the vicinity of Kikyō Mountain.
The fact that the Anbu (Anbu) took action against several elite Jonin (high-ranking ninja) may have alerted intelligent individuals.
Killing Xinma is not difficult; the difficulty lies in the subsequent struggle with the Moonlight Sect.
If the Moonlight Sect discovers something and manages to escape, then the cost of this mission will be too high.
Therefore, I returned to the village to prepare for the second assassination attempt on Xinma.
The yellow dog suddenly realized that it was the Moonlight Sect that had appeared and rescued Xinma. He said:
"I have been keeping a close eye on Sakumo Hatake and guarding against him, but I can't guard against his subordinates."
Sakumo Hatake possessed a certain charisma, and he had many loyal subordinates. Among the Jonin, Gekko-michi, Yamashiro-ji, and Kawai were all his supporters.
Among the elite ninjas, Shinma, Hayato Shirakumo, and others all followed his lead.
The matter of dealing with Singapore and Malaysia is temporarily put on hold, as the Jonin squad meeting is scheduled for tomorrow.
Ye Guang was taken aback and said, "Starting tomorrow? Is it that rushed?"
As far as Ye Guang knew, the missions of the other squads' special Jonin were not as successful as their Fox Squad's.
The special Jonin are all quite strong, so if you force it, something unexpected might happen.
For example, when dealing with Singapore and Malaysia, Singapore and Malaysia can at least hold out for twenty minutes, and it is normal for anything unexpected to happen during this period.
Yellow Dog said, "Tsunade, Sakumo Hatake, and the others are very perceptive; they seem to have sensed something."
We had to stop before they went to the Hokage and made a scene.
Ye Guang thought to himself, "You are all too greedy."
If they could work together to frame a few members of the Sarutobi clan or the Ino-Shika-Cho special jonin, even if Sakumo Hatake and the others had ideas, they would have to put up with it.
They're now targeting Tsunade, Sakumo Hatake, the Uchiha clan, and others, pulling Tsunade's hair out and turning Sakumo Hatake bald. Anyone with a brain would know something's wrong.
However, the five newly powerful clans of Konoha would absolutely not allow themselves to cripple their own special Jonin.
"Your squad will be responsible for guarding tomorrow's Jonin team meeting."
