Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu

When he killed the Sand Village Jonin, in order to end the battle as quickly as possible and to avoid too many casualties among his subordinates, he used the Self-Karmic Curse Seal.

He didn't want his subordinates to be constantly replaced by deaths, so he used some of his trump cards.

Could it be that... the secret service has discovered some intelligence?

Ye Guang recalled the task report he had written and meticulously recounted it as recorded in the report:

"That Sand Village Jonin is skilled in Earth Release, but my technique is faster."

Tulong Spear kept clashing with his flying pebbles, but my ninjutsu was faster than his, and he became increasingly flustered and disorganized in his responses.

Finally, I seized the opportunity and struck him on the head, killing him.

As soon as Ye Guang finished speaking, he saw the Jonin on the left move.

The ground beneath the platform cracked open, and pebbles shot out, hurtling towards the night light.

He formed a hand seal with the luminous light, and earthen spears appeared on the ground in front of him.

The luminous eyes kept turning, and the pebbles were blocked one by one by the earthen spear.

The Jonin on the left is very strong. The point of impact between the gravel and the Earth Dragon Spear is getting closer and closer to Nightlight.

The gravel got closer and closer, so close that after it was broken, the fragments continued to fly towards him, grazing his ears as they flew behind him.

It's too close. The closest one to me is only half a meter away.

Amidst the chaos, Ye Guang switched ninjutsu.

"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"

A powerful wall of water erupted from the ground, blocking the remaining gravel.

The water wall descended, and the moonlight looked towards the podium.

He was already sweating slightly; this Jonin from the Anbu was very skilled in ninjutsu.

The yellow dog said, "Alligator snapping turtle, I knew the fox's ninjutsu was top-notch."

Ye Guang breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that it was a test of his ninjutsu level, not a discovery that he had used the Self-Karmic Binding Seal.

The Jonin on the right stood up and said:

"If I were a nobleman from the Land of Fire who was fighting against Konoha, and you were trying to assassinate me, you would have to use taijutsu to avoid revealing your identity as a Konoha ninja. Come on."

Ye Guang picked up a kunai from his ninja tool pouch and quickly blocked it.

The Jonin's kunai collided with his own.

The Jonin said in surprise, "I can feel it as soon as I touch them; their arms are strong and powerful."

Ye Guang thought to himself, "I have the bloodline of the Thousand Hands clan, so my physical skills are not bad."

The two sides exchanged blows, their swords clashing repeatedly in the air, sparks flying in the darkness.

Ye Guang also learned the Cloud Flow Blade Technique, making his joints extremely flexible, allowing him to thrust kunai from bizarre angles.

While sparring with Yagami, the ANBU Jonin said, "His kunai taijutsu has a hint of swordsmanship. His swordsmanship is insidious, vicious, and unpredictable. He has impressive taijutsu skills."

After trying for a minute or two, the ANBU Jonin retreated.

The yellow dog said, "So, alligator snapping turtle and hummingbird, would you two be willing to recommend the fox to become a special Jonin?"

"You have a pretty good captain."

"He's better than my company commander."

The three people signed the recommendation scroll in turn.

The yellow dog said, "Let's go, fox, come with me to see the Hokage."

Ye Guang felt completely relaxed, having successfully passed the internal assessment in the Dark Division.

Hokage Building.

Squad leader Huang Quan went upstairs to report first. More than ten minutes later, Huang Quan came downstairs and brought Ye Guang upstairs.

Seeing the fox at the door, Hiruzen Sarutobi said gently, "Fox, come here."

There were only the Hokage and Captain Yellow Dog in the office, so you could say anything.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the document and said:

"Fox, whose real name is Night Light."

Konoha was born in the village in 23.

He was orphaned in Konoha 28 years ago and was raised by the village.

Graduated from the Konoha Ninja Academy in 33.

Konoha passed the Chunin Exams in 38, which was last year.

Apart from you, the rest of the team members were killed in two separate missions. You were rescued by the Dark Guard and then selected by them.

Since joining the Dark Side, he has performed outstandingly in various missions, including those in the Land of Waves, the Land of Whirlpools, the Land of Grass, and the Land of Rain.

He received praise several times from the former squad leader, Black Gorilla, and now the battalion commander, Yellow Dog.

"Now, Yellow Dog recommends you become a Special Jonin."

Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his eyes, looked at Yako, and said:

"Fox, tell me about the psychological changes you experienced after joining the Dark Division."

The Dark Guard is my direct subordinate unit, the blade in my hand. But now, I want to hear your true thoughts.

Ye Guang thought to himself, the internal assessment of the Anbu is to test strength, while the Hokage's personal review is to test loyalty.

After quickly organizing his thoughts, Ye Guang said:

"Lord Hokage, my parents, my mentor, and my teammates all died in war or conflict."

Originally, I was already resigned to death, and joining the Dark Division was the most suitable ending for me.

During my time in the shadows, my heart slowly came back to life.

The missions of the Dark Guard are cold and cruel, yet these cruel missions can make the village a better place.

I experienced cruelty, and as a result, some people in the village will find warmth.

Hokage, the reason why Konoha, this great ship, keeps moving forward, is because of people like you who are carrying the burden.

And I am willing to be your support as you carry on your burdens, and to remain loyal to you.

Ye Guang thought to himself, "With this tall hat on, who wouldn't be confused?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned.

Carrying a heavy burden forward?

Yes, we are carrying a heavy burden.

At this moment, everything Hiruzen Sarutobi did had an anchor and meaning.

He has been carrying a heavy burden for the sake of the village, and he has aged rapidly in recent years.

He was clearly only middle-aged, but he looked much older than the retired Akimichi Tokifu.

"Okay, okay!" Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly signed his name on the document and said:

"Yoko, I now agree to let you become a special Jonin!"

It is because of outstanding young people like you that Konoha Village has been able to overcome crisis after crisis.

It is because of energetic young people like you that Konoha has become more prosperous.

Hiruzen Sarutobi called him "Yoru" instead of his code name "Fox," which sounded very friendly.

Ye Guang was still a little unaccustomed to it; he was used to being called a fox. He said:

"Lord Hokage, I will certainly live up to the expectations of the Anbu, never betray the Will of Fire, and continue to complete missions for you!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded repeatedly. This young man had grown rapidly and was a backbone of the Anbu.

"Special Jonin of the Anbu, rewarded with an A-rank ninjutsu."

Tell me, what kind of ninjutsu do you want to learn right now?

After thinking for a moment, Ye Guang said, "Lord Hokage, I want to learn Water Release offensive ninjutsu. I currently lack offensive capabilities."

Upon hearing this, the Hokage gestured to the yellow dog to fetch a scroll from the bookshelf on the side.

The yellow dog brought a blue scroll and handed it to Nightlight.

After the light was turned on, the scroll read: "Summary of Hiruzen Sarutobi's Water Release Ninjutsu," which was a catalog of water release ninjutsu.

The first thing he saw was the name of a water-style technique: Water Release: Water Severing Wave.

This technique is one of the signature Water Release techniques of the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, who developed the offensive power of Water Release to its extreme.

During the Fourth Shinobi World War, the Second Hokage, who was reanimated, used this technique to cut through the branches of the Divine Tree; its strength was extremely high.

Ye Guang said, "Lord Hokage, I wish to learn Water Release: Water Severing Wave."

"Oh?" Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression suddenly filled with nostalgia. He said:

"This is a water escape technique developed by my teacher. It is very difficult. I am very happy that someone can inherit this water escape technique."

"I hope you can make a name for yourself with this ninjutsu in the future, and tell the ninja world that your lineage comes from my teacher, from the Second Hokage, Tobirama."

"Please rest assured, Lord Hokage, this technique will surely shine again in my hands."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded repeatedly, opened a scroll, and began to memorize ninjutsu.

As a ninjutsu professor in Konoha, Hiruzen Sarutobi learned all of Konoha's ninjutsu.

Yellow Dog handed over the completed scroll, and Night Light carefully blew the ink dry before putting the scroll away.

Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "Fox, after you return to the Anbu, slowly practice your ninjutsu. Next, stand on my other side and we'll meet someone together."

Ye Guang quickly stood on the other side of the Hokage, with Huang Quan on either side.

This represents the Hokage's trust and nurturing.

It's unclear who they're meeting, but the fact that two secret agents are standing by their sides suggests a grand display.

Not long after, a white-haired ninja carrying a short sword walked into the Hokage's office.

Hiruzen Sarutobi said in a cheerful tone, "Sakumo, sit down."

"Hello, Lord Hokage."

Sakumo Hatake sat down on the sofa on one side.

He first glanced at the two secret agents.

The dark side on the right is Yellow Dog, whom Sakumo Hatake has met several times. He is skilled in both Fire Release and Taijutsu.

The newcomer, wearing a fox mask, is in the shadows on the left.

The missions assigned by the Hokage are never easy. The casualty rate of the Anbu is much higher than that of ordinary ninjas, so it's normal for new recruits to appear.

Hatake Sakumo glanced at the Fox Anbu's stance and could tell from the state of their muscles that this Fox Anbu member was quite strong.

Moreover, he is extremely talented, far from reaching the limit of his talent.

Ye Guang was shocked to see Konoha's White Fang.

At this time, Sakumo Hatake had not yet killed Chiyo's son and daughter-in-law, nor had he earned the title of White Fang.

Sakumo Hatake asked, "Hokage-sama, what brings you to see me?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi gestured for the fox to hand Sakumo Hatake a scroll.

Night Light picked up the scroll from the table and handed it to Hatake Sakumo.

While waiting for Sakumo Hatake to look at the scroll, Hiruzen Sarutobi said:

"The war with Amegakure has just ended, and now Sunagakure has declared war on us."

The Yellow Dog Squad thwarted a plot by Sunagakure, who were trying to divert water from the Land of Rain into the Land of Wind.

Our plan failed, and both Amegakure and Konoha are now on guard.

The Sand Village believes that we have suffered heavy casualties on the three battlefields of the Land of Hot Water, the Land of Grass, and the Land of Rain, and that they have an opportunity to take advantage of our weakness.

With no way to avoid it, Konoha will face Sunagakure in the Land of Rivers.
