The kick looked heavy, but it didn't break any bones.

The Sand Ninja threw out the poisonous mist and saw the Konoha Ninjas fighting fiercely with the Rain Ninjas on the opposite bank.

The Sand Ninja quickly got up and fled the battle.

Nightlight deliberately let the Sand Ninja go, allowing him to send back information about the Rain Ninja's sneak attack.

Konoha wants it all, which is really putting the execution ninjas like Yagami in a difficult position.

They wanted to exchange the prisoners, but they didn't want other villages to know that Konoha had experimented on the prisoners, and they didn't want to bear the infamy of sabotaging the prisoner exchange.

After the battle, four Sand Ninja corpses lay on the ground.

Two Sand Ninja were extremely fierce and, disregarding their own lives, killed the Konoha prisoners beneath their feet before they died.

There's nothing we can do about it.

They rescued three prisoners, mainly the prisoners of the Shimura clan, and their mission was more than accomplished.

Ye Guang said, "Let's go! Get Shimura back to the front-line medical station before the poison takes effect!"

Removing his Rain Ninja disguise, Night Light donned the Root mask and rushed towards the main camp.

The four prisoners, along with a leaf monkey with a broken and everted leg, were carried away.

Ye Guang said to the langur on the chimpanzee's shoulder, "Langur, you're really pushing yourself too hard."

To complete the mission, the leaf monkey really went to great lengths to kill itself.

Chapter 124 Healing a Shimura Clan Fool

"Ye Hou, you're really pushing yourself too hard."

Hearing Captain Fox's sympathy, the leaf monkey said:

"At the time, we didn't think too much about completing the mission. The injuries on the squad leader and the deer squad leader were real. Everyone was giving it their all."

Ye Guang glanced at the deer; the deer had shaved its head, and its head was covered in knife wounds.

The wound had reopened due to the strenuous exercise, and was oozing pink blood.

Upon closer inspection, it was red blood mixed with yellow pus.

Looking at the poisoned Shimura ninja, Yako said:

"Let's rest for a bit, treat the wounds before we go, and make sure there are no irreversible injuries. Give Shimura a few more injections of stimulants; as long as he doesn't die, it's fine."

Ye Guang hadn't expected his team members to take this mission so seriously.

As the squadron leader, he had seen information about the leaf monkeys.

Leaf monkey, real name Sugifu.

He was a commoner Chunin from Konoha, raised by his older brother. After his brother died in battle, he raised his brother's son, who was also his nephew.

Less than two years later, his nephew, a low-ranking ninja, died in battle.

Having lost everything, Sugifuku had already resolved to die in the Land of Grass, and fought with extreme ferocity.

He was chosen by the Dark Guard because of his tragic experiences.

The Anbu told him that they were using any means necessary to end the battle as quickly as possible, and that as long as he remained loyal to the Hokage, Konoha could be restored to peace soon.

A fire reignited in Sugifuku's heart; he did not want the tragedy that befell his brother and nephew to repeat itself.

After joining the secret service, he treated every mission as if it were his last, wanting only to end the war as soon as possible.

Such a good ANBU ninja was used to save Danzo's relatives.

"Ye Hou, when we get back I'll apply for a suitable ninjutsu for you. Don't worry, I'll make sure you live a few more months."

"Thank you Captain!"

After resting for only a few minutes, Aries suddenly said, "Captain! A Sand Ninja squad has appeared 800 meters away at 7 o'clock!"

"It seems the Sand Village ninja aren't planning on a straightforward prisoner exchange either. They have their own tricks up their sleeves; they're all the same, equally bad." Nightlight immediately gave the order:

"Those carrying the wounded, go first! The rest of you stay in the middle, I'll cover the rear!"

The squadron set off again, with the last soldier trailing behind, cautiously watching a river canyon on the side.

The sounds of puppets moving could be heard from there.

The canyon's trumpet shape amplified the clicking sounds of the puppet's joints.

Three humanoid puppets leaped out of the canyon and fired a dense barrage of poison needles at the Fox Squadron.

"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"

Nightlight had anticipated this, erecting a water barrier over ten meters long to block the flank of the Fox Squadron.

All the poison needles were blocked by the water array wall, and bluish-purple water ripples appeared on the water array wall, which were the dispersed poison.

Before the water array wall fell, Ye Guang formed five seals in succession.

"Water Release·Water Breaking Wave!"

A stream of water shot out from Ye Guang's mouth, sweeping across and slicing through the three puppets.

The puppet's abdomen was covered in mechanisms that exploded, including gears, springs, and drive belts—quite a variety of designs.

The three puppets were greatly weakened.

The puppeteer who possesses the puppet is very skilled; even with its damaged upper and lower body, it can still move.

This is what makes puppets so troublesome; you can't predict or guess their actions using the same logic you use to deal with humans.

After using a water barrier to block the sharp blade on the puppet's arm, Ye Guang shouted, "Get away from the canyon!"

The squadron turned and moved away from the canyon, increasing the distance between itself and the puppeteer, who was forced to jump out of the canyon.

Two puppeteers manipulated the new puppets and charged towards the Dark Guard squad.

The light stopped and turned to face the puppet.

Two puppets moved forward on the ground, drawing attention.

A bat-shaped puppet flapped its wings and launched a sneak attack on the Konoha captain from above.

Got it!

The bat puppet fired a poisoned needle from its chest, which pierced the back of the Konoha squad leader.

Bang!

A puff of white smoke burst forth, revealing a shadow clone.

when?

The puppeteer suddenly remembered that the Konoha captain had just used a water barrier, and must have used a shadow clone behind the water barrier.

A glow emerged from the ground behind the two puppeteers.

"Water Release·Water Breaking Wave!"

A stream of water shot out, slicing the two puppeteers in half at the waist.

Their intestines burst open and were scattered all over the ground.

Puppet masters don't have the ability of puppets to move independently even after their upper and lower bodies have been cut off. The two puppet masters died tragically under the water's cutting waves.

As Ye Guang walked to the edge of the canyon, he saw two Sand Ninjas fleeing down into the canyon.

He jumped into the canyon and stood on the water's surface. Ye Guang used his fastest teleportation technique, Water Teleportation.

Suddenly appearing behind the two Sand Ninja, Nightfall unleashed another Water Severing Wave.

The water-cutting waves shaved off both of their skulls.

It was extremely cruel, but no one else could be allowed to know that he had mastered Hanzo's signature ninjutsu, Water Flicker Technique.

After doing all this, Ye Guang waited a long time before jumping onto the canyon, pretending that he had spent some time killing the two Sand Ninja.

Back with the squadron leader, Hana said enviously, "Squadron Leader, your Water Release ninjutsu is amazing."

Ye Guang said, "Water Break Wave was a special Jonin reward given to me by the Anbu. Water Formation Wall was obtained for me by Captain Black Gorilla."

He quickly said to the black gorilla that had come closer:

“Black gorilla, I’m not talking about you, but the person before you who wore this mask.”

"After we get back, I'll also apply for ninjutsu for you. Think carefully on the way back about what kind of ninjutsu you all want."

Upon returning to the camp, Ye Guang immediately went to the medical tent.

Tsunade first looked at the most seriously injured Chunin from the Shimura clan, then pried open his eyelids and examined him carefully.

She said, "The toxin has damaged his nervous system; even if he recovers, he'll be an idiot. Given the style of your Dark Division, shouldn't you just eliminate someone like this halfway through?"

Ye Guang said, "Princess Tsunade, even if he's cured, he'll still be a fool from the Shimura clan, so we can't just get rid of him halfway through."

"Hmph," Tsunade said, "I see."

The three captives, along with a deer, a langur, and others, were receiving treatment in a medical tent.

Nightlight was chased out by the medical ninjas and waited outside for treatment.

Halfway through the treatment, two people walked over. Looking over, Ye Guang recognized them as Commander-in-Chief Nara Shikazu and Deputy Commander Hatake Sakumo.

After entering the medical tent, the two quickly came out, both looking very heavy-hearted.

Nara Shika, standing outside the curtain, said:

"Shuomao, the assessment system you proposed last time was a matter of great importance, and many people have heard about it."

Some Chunin and Special Jonin at the front lines have shown an extremely strong tendency to take risks.

The three prisoners who were rescued were captured by the Sand Ninja because they were reckless.

Sakumo, I understand your thoughts, but a recommendation system is more suitable for Konoha now.

If an evaluation system is really implemented, the Chunin on the front lines will suffer rapid casualties. What do you think?

After Nara Shikaku finished speaking, he turned to look at Hatake Sakumo and then noticed that there was a ninja hiding in the darkness behind him.

His eyes flickered, and when he saw it was the Anbu, he breathed a sigh of relief.

As the commander-in-chief, he mainly focused on scheduling and formulating tactics. His hard power was not top-notch, and he failed to discover the hidden forces lurking in the shadows.

Fortunately, it was the Dark Division, otherwise my conversation with Sakumo would have been exposed.

Ye Guang thought to himself, "As expected of the head of the Nara clan, his perspective is so unique. Hatake Sakumo probably doesn't want his ideas to cause a lot of casualties on the front lines."

Sakumo Hatake remained silent, unsure how to respond.

It's so hard to accomplish something, but so easy to destroy it.

Nara Shikaku used facts to prevent Sakumo from implementing the performance evaluation system.

You said you wanted to put them to a test, so I'll show you just how aggressive the Konoha ninjas can be, because that's how you test their drive.

Over-compliance can sometimes be more effective than passive defiance.

For example, if the higher-ups say that burning firewood is not allowed, then if they find a way to freeze a few people to death, this policy will be abolished.

With a little manipulation, Nara Shikanobu was unable to speak again.

After Nara Shikaku left, Hatake Sakumo stood alone, lost in thought.

Ye Guang pretended to be passing by and whispered, "Putting aside our identities as members of the Dark Guard, Lord Sakumo, I support the assessment system."

Sakumo Hatake was taken aback. He glanced at the ANBU ninja and noticed that the ninja was wearing an ANBU mask.

Sakumo, who was familiar with the rules of the Dark Side, did not make a fuss or say anything more, but simply left.

After the langurs finished their surgery, Ye Guang returned to the dark tent area.

The yellow dog captain found him:

"Fox, Deputy Commander Sakumo wants to know the details of the Dark Division's prisoner exchange mission. I've agreed. Go and report to the Deputy Commander."

Let me talk about updates. There will be two updates a day, at 10 AM and 20 PM. The timing of any extra chapters will be irregular. There will be four updates today.
