Infinite: Starting from Infiltrating Other Spaces

The current Raikage has a bad temper, and there's also Killer Bee, the perfect Jinchūriki.

If a conflict were to break out, he could very well die there. After much deliberation, he ultimately abandoned the idea of ​​heading straight for Cloud Village.

"Those who came to infiltrate must be members of the secret service, and specifically a special secret service team, similar to my identity."

"I can only gamble that these squads know me..."

Aowu was stunned: "So—we're betting?"

Li Xia smiled and said calmly, "There's no such thing as 100% certainty. Hiding one's identity is an unexpected bonus."

Our starting point in the first round is already quite high; if the prediction is correct, this will be icing on the cake.

If it doesn't work out, there's nothing to regret.

and......."

Li Xia started walking towards the first shop she had marked in her plan, but the voice in the team channel carried a reassuring calmness:

"I think that since the Temple of Light has already set up so many mysteries, it wouldn't deliberately create difficulties in this regard."

The probability... is very high!

.........

"How many is this again?"

The little paws drew an 'X' on the simple Konoha map.

"Oh, that's the ninety-eighth one—"

He wrote down the numbers to himself and let out a sigh.

To avoid attracting attention, Li Xia spent five days wandering aimlessly through the commercial street.

Many business owners have even become familiar with this young man who seems to have a lot of free time and always carries a large handful of snacks.

After all, who wouldn't like a customer who always has a smile on his face, speaks politely, is handsome, and most importantly, is generous?

Sometimes, two little tails follow behind him—Hyuga Neji and Hyuga Hinata.

"It's okay, just treat it as a vacation."

Li Xia comforted Aowu and headed towards the last shop on today's itinerary.

They sell cassette tapes here, and the loudspeakers at the entrance are playing songs with a rustling sound.

Li Xia pushed open the glass door, and the enthusiastic owner immediately came to greet her.

"Oh my, isn't this Lord Xia? Welcome, welcome!"

The owner had heard of this generous guest before; this patriarch of the Hyuga clan seemed very interested in everything.

Even the Hyuga family didn't find it strange; sometimes when they bought large items, they would even send someone to help with the delivery.

It's not surprising that the Hyuga clan is involved; someone who has lived on the moon since childhood suddenly arrives in the 'prosperous' Konoha.

Having both money and time, it's perfectly normal to casually browse and shop, right?

Hiashi Hyuga was even more pleased to see Li Xia's interest in life in Konoha, and specifically instructed Neji and Hinata to spend more time with their teacher when they had free time.

cassette tapes... I haven't seen them in a long time. Li Xia looked back and forth on the shelves full of tapes with great interest.

"By the way, sir, we just received a batch of new Walkmans. I wonder if you would be interested?"

"Oh?" Li Xia was genuinely interested; Walkmans that played cassette tapes were a very retro and niche hobby.

He still misses it quite a bit, since he had a Walkman when he was a child, and not long after that, MP3 players suddenly appeared.

His parents bought him an MP3 player.

"Give me one, and also some of the more popular cassette tapes, I want them all!"

The boss rubbed his hands together excitedly. What a big spender!

He hurriedly turned around and shouted, "Kai! Come out here quickly and give me one of the latest Walkmans, the special collector's edition!"

"They're here—"

A sleepy-eyed young man yawned as he walked out of the cubicle.

Kai glanced casually at the guest, then his pupils widened suddenly.

It's a ghost!

Chapter Thirty-Five: Turning Hands to Create Clouds, Turning Hands to Create Rain

Kai only paused for a moment before quickly suppressing his strange reaction.

The owner of the music store thought this young apprentice was naive and had never seen much of the world.

It urged me on without my having to:

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and bring it over!"

"Oh, okay, boss."

Kai lowered her head and ran back to her cubicle in a fluster.

"Sir, he's always been clumsy, and there's a lot of stuff. Should I just deliver it to your residence later?"

The boss solicitously took out a cigarette.

Li Xia waved her hand: "No need, I can take it myself."

I definitely can't accept the cigarette, since there are no cigarettes on the moon.

When Li Xia went out, she had a rather large portable music player in her hand.

He truly hadn't expected that the Naruto series would now have Walkmans.

It was quite strange, though. There was a TV, a radio, a movie theater, and even a strange-looking computer in Orochimaru's underground base.

However, we didn't see any firearms or vehicles, which just makes the tech tree seem particularly strange.

"Boss, that young man—"

"Yes, I saw it, but it's not certain. We've done everything we can, so let's continue with the original plan."

We've seen everything we wanted to see today, let's head back now.

Li Xia put the large earphones of his Walkman into his ears, and the hissing noise from the cassette tapes flowed out.

He didn't know whether it would work out or not, but just as he had told Aowu before.

Do your best, but don't force it.

As the sun set, Li Xia walked away, bathed in the afterglow of the sunset.

...........

Kai, as usual, mopped the floor of the music store.

He carefully placed the cassette tape back into the shelf, and only breathed a sigh of relief when the roller shutter door was pulled down.

They crawled back into the small cubicle that combined the warehouse and bedroom.

Kai lay on the bed, his brows furrowed tightly.

Recalling what I saw this afternoon, it still feels somewhat unbelievable.

Impossible, Xia—wasn't he already dead?

But... they look exactly the same!

As a member of the Cloud Hidden's elite dark unit squad, Kai belongs to a special organization.

They are specifically responsible for infiltrating enemy ninja villages, and barring special circumstances, they may even spend most of their lives there.

Kai compared the faces he had seen that afternoon with those in his memory.

Apart from those white pupils, they are exactly the same in every detail.

If it really is Xia, why would he roll his eyes?

After much deliberation, Kai made up his mind and took a blank cassette tape out of the container.

Then he took out some strange-looking instruments from the cabinet next to him.

As he inserted the tape into the machine, Kai's hands moved swiftly, forming hand seals, and a faint spark of electricity emanated from his right palm.

Kai placed his right hand on the instrument, controlling the burner with a slight tremor.

After a long while, he finally let go, his forehead covered in sweat, and wiped the sweat from his brow.

He chuckled self-deprecatingly. He had been infiltrating Konoha for a year, and had been mostly silent.

Even the engraving technique is somewhat rusty.

After doing all this, Kai lay in bed and forced herself to fall asleep quickly.

The next morning, as usual, he put the damaged tapes along with the list of people to be restocked into his backpack.

He boarded the vehicle bound for a major city in the Land of Fire, and the ninja guarding the gate greeted him.

"Hey, Kai! Going to restock again? If there's a new album, can you get me a box too!"

"Okay, I'll definitely remember!"

Kai smiled, waved, and agreed.

Novel gadgets like Walkmans, televisions, and movies all originated from the major cities of the Land of Fire.

If we want to restock, we can only go there.

After trying various modes of transportation for quite a while, Kai finally boarded the airship. He let out a long breath and cursed Konoha inwardly with disgust.

Technological innovation had already begun in his hometown of Kumogakure, with steamships and various other machines powered by electricity.

Apart from some household appliances, there was nothing else to be seen in Konoha.

Just wait, Kumogakure will rise to power and become the dominant ninja village in this world!

"As usual, this is an order that needs restocking—"

Kai, looking travel-worn, didn't even have time to drink some water. After handing the order to the distributor, he took off his backpack.

He pushed it over: "These are damaged and faulty tapes. I'm not kidding, but you have way too many defective products here."

The bald boss took the receipt, glanced casually at the cassette tapes in his backpack, and his eyes were immediately drawn to one of them.

It was a rap album, and also a signal of a preordained agreement.

The bald boss took the backpack and nodded to Kai:

"it is good."

Kai felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her heart, and she suddenly felt much lighter.

Soon, this special tape was mixed in with the other tapes and sent to Kumogakure.

That night, the tape was picked up by a hand and inserted into a special device belonging to the Hidden Cloud Village's secret service.

...............

[Executioner, you have successfully exposed his hidden identity: Special Jonin of the Shadow Squad, a special assassination unit from Kumogakure]

[Executioner, you currently hold three identities: Hyuga main branch, Konoha Anbu Special Jonin, and Kumogakure Anbu Special Jonin]

[Under investigation...]

Li Xia was suddenly awakened from her sleep, only to see a large number of prompts refreshing on the panel in front of her.

He felt an overwhelming surge of excitement. The gains were secondary; he simply loved the feeling, the sense of unraveling the mystery himself.

Awoo opened his sleepy eyes:

"What's wrong, boss—"

The panel was shared directly with Aowu, and Xiaolong immediately perked up, staring in disbelief at the prompt above:
