On the 20th, in the Anbu changing room.
After finishing their daily Konoha Village patrols, everyone was unlacing their Anbu vests in front of their lockers.
Kira's breathing was weaker than usual, hoping to avoid being singled out by the Squad Leader.
Can you imagine how terrifying it is to be called out by the Squad Leader?
It's like you've been slacking off for a week and the manager suddenly calls on you to present a proposal. Or like you've just come home to relax and your wife immediately asks you to do chores.
But the Squad Leader still called kira's codename.
"Fox, go keep an eye on Crane Moon Izakaya tonight."
It's over. Still me.
Is it because I'm the most useless?
Everyone else gets to rest, but someone like me doesn't deserve a break?
He put the Anbu vest he had just taken off back on.
This vest wasn't the cloth armor of ordinary ninja, but a gray iron armor, just like what Kakashi wore in Anbu.
Yet, the iron vest provided no sense of security.
After nightfall, kira hid in the trees at the street corner, watching the izakaya in the distance.
At a certain moment, his eyes, hidden behind his mask, moved slightly.
Even though he was very serious and even had a premonition, he still didn't know how the Squad Leader appeared.
After the Squad Leader appeared, kira still shivered.
He asked the Squad Leader for money, this time shamelessly asking for three stacks.
Don't refuse what's given for free. I shed blood for Anbu, Anbu can't mistreat me.
Upon entering Crane Moon Izakaya, kira
again headed straight for the corner.
"Give me the most expensive sake!"
The female boss he had seen last time, carrying sake, approached kira with a charming smile.
Her collar was so low.
Kira stared intently.
So big, so beautiful, why doesn't it jiggle? It ultimately lacks a bit of aesthetic appeal.
Following the same routine, he was led into a side room in the backyard, his side pressed by the female boss's ample chest.
The female boss closed the door.
"Ninja-sama, do you prefer missionary or doggy?"
"I like them both very much!"
"Hehehe, Ninja-sama, you truly are very impressive"
Kira was teasing her, but his heart was highly alert.
Something moved!
There was something in the corner of the wall that had come up from underground.
The ground showed no changes, but he also knew Earth Release: Earthshock Fish Technique, and sensed someone approaching.
"I can't wait! Come on! Let's start already !"
Kira suddenly exerted force, tackling the female boss to the ground, lunging toward the direction of the shadow.
He pulled out a hidden kunai from his lower back and thrust it violently between the female boss's legs.
The female boss, who had initially thought this Konoha ninja was simply impatient, suddenly saw the iron ring of the kunai from behind Night Light's shoulder.
Oh no!
Between her legs, it felt a little cold.
As soon as she fell to the ground, she was about to fight back when she suddenly heard a muffled groan from behind her back.
Even worse!
The kunai wasn't meant for her, but for her teammate underground!
Under the ground behind her, her teammate was twitching.
It was a vital spot that was hit, most likely the heart.
This Konoha ninja had precisely stabbed the spy teammate's heart through the space between her legs.
A storm raged in her mind.
For her identity as a spy, the village had sacrificed many comrades, teammates who had accompanied her for years, and teachers who had taught her—all died in Konoha Village.
To protect each other, she and the teammate beneath her had never met, communicating only through coded signals.
Her teammate was exposed, but she absolutely could not be exposed.
The only chance to preserve her spy identity was to pretend she knew nothing.
Exposure meant death. If she were to faint, Konoha might mistakenly assume she knew nothing, and this was her only chance.
"Oh dear!"
The female boss's head hit the ground heavily, and she fainted.
Kira clearly felt the female boss's body go limp and she fainted.
Was this woman a spy or not? If she was, wouldn't she be afraid of him executing her directly by fainting now?
Never mind, first call the Squad Leader. The Squad Leader is still in the trees at the street corner.
Kira left the side room, jumped onto the roof, and his figure flashed away. After giving the Squad Leader a signal, he returned to the room in the backyard.
The door was open, and a few seconds later, the Squad Leader also entered the side room.
The Squad Leader cautiously closed the door and immediately surveyed the scene: "Blood is seeping around the kunai, there's someone underground! Fox, did you kill him?"
"Yes, Squad Leader. My chakra nature is Earth, and I sensed someone underground, so I tried stabbing the ground with a kunai."
The Squad Leader nodded. "Very good, very well done."
He raised his hand, and in the next second, he smashed open the ground, revealing the person from underground.
He was covered in dirt, mixed with bloodstains.
After a moment of searching, the Squad Leader continued:
"He's skilled in Earth Release, and judging by his square face, he resembles someone from the Land of Earth in the northwest, possibly an Iwa Ninja spy.
Very good, Fox, you've completed a B-rank mission.
Someone who just passed the Chunin Exams being able to complete a B-rank mission—your luck is good. White Fang san once said that luck is also a form of strength."
He hadn't expected his Squad Leader to have interacted with White Fang.
Kakashi saying that luck is a form of strength seemed to have come from his father, Sakumo Hatake.
Kira corrected: "Squad Leader, my strength isn't that bad, is it?"
"If it weren't for over a thousand ninja dying on the Land of Hot Water battlefield, and the Chunin Exams being lenient during wartime, you wouldn't become a Chunin for another three years."
Seeing that he couldn't change the Squad Leader's impression, kira turned to the female boss, indicating there was still a living person here.
"It's fine, the female boss has fainted."
"Squad Leader, is the female boss an Iwa Ninja spy?"
"I don't know. First, take this man away and extract information from his mind. Following that information, we might be able to uncover a lead." The Squad Leader said:
"If this woman is a spy, she won't be let go. I'll take the spy first. You clean up the scene, don't let anyone see that Anbu was here, and then return to Anbu."
The Squad Leader carried the spy and left the house.
Night Light painstakingly restored the ground and then moved the female boss onto the bed.
He took one last look at the female boss, feeling a bit regretful. Although she didn't jiggle or feel soft, she was big—what a pity.
After retrieving his equipment from the trees at the street corner, kira also returned to Anbu.
Pushing the corpse, Night Light and the Squad Leader delivered the body to the Intelligence Division.
A Yamanaka Clan ninja took the corpse.
Night Light said: "Squad Leader, can I rest for a few days? The patrols, surveillance, and this spy mission have made me a bit tired these past few days."
The Squad Leader initially wanted to refuse, but considering Fox's terrible strength, his presence or absence made no difference to the squad. Given that he had just completed a spy mission, he said:
"I can give you three days to rest, but be ready for notification at any time. The village needs people right now, so you must return to duty after three days."
"Okay, thank you, Squad Leader."
Kira needed to try and last until the next full moon on the 15th to have a chance at resurrection.
For these 25 days, he would drag it out one day at a time.
