Chapter 150: Scandal
Yoru returned to the previous full moon.
He had just come out of the Kiiroinu Captain’s tent, received the Anbu observer’s mission, and was about to join the Suna Harbor raid mission as Tengbei.
【Moon Arc activated!
The host has only one resurrection opportunity per month, resurrecting on the previous full moon night after death.
Reward one lucky draw opportunity:
1-Secret Jutsu·Shadow Mechanism Jutsu;
2-Jonin Level Chakra Amount（stackable）;
3-Secret Jutsu·Shadow Imitation Jutsu（beginner）.】
The first option, Shadow Mechanism Jutsu, should be the trap Nara Baika hid under her skirt.
The smarter the woman, the more dangerous she is indeed.
This jutsu is useless, and Yoru wouldn’t wear a skirt.
The second option, Jonin Level Chakra Amount.
Last month, his chakra amount was 6 times Jonin level. After a month of natural growth, it is now 9 times Jonin level.
Under the boost of physique, the chakra amount is growing slowly.
He chose the third option, Secret Jutsu·Shadow Imitation Jutsu（beginner）.
Done, now when doing bad things in the future, he has one more method and can frame one more ninja clan.
What to do about this.
An innocent, naive, and kind person like himself, who is like little Baika, is becoming more and more like a bad egg?
Yoru instantly mastered Shadow Imitation Jutsu.
This jutsu is originally a Yin Release secret jutsu.
It gathers Yin Release Chakra into the shadow under one’s feet, thereby giving the shadow special abilities’ secret jutsu.
This secret jutsu overlaps somewhat in function with the Karma Seal of Retribution, so it shouldn’t be used unless framing the Nara Clan.
The application method of Yin Release Chakra can be borrowed and referenced.
Just like in the previous life, Yoru was assigned to Nara El’s squad.
The teammate is the petite but lively Zhen Li.
“Hello, I’m Zhen Li, just passed the Chunin Exam and became a Chunin.”
“Hello, I’m Tengbei, fantasizing about passing the Chunin Exam and becoming a Chunin.”
“Haha, then you have to work hard.”
Nara El still shamelessly said that the glider is another major important contribution of the Nara Clan to the village.
Zhen Li learned the glider, while Yoru continued to secretly study the Taijutsu Bone Shattering Copper Light.
Soon, the raid mission began.
Nara El’s squad received the mission to dive and blow up the pier.
Yoru kept a neither too close nor too far position from Nara El, making it difficult for Nara El to control him with Shadow Imitation Jutsu.
When Nara El controlled Zhen Li for the first time, Yoru quickly made his move, using the newly mastered Shadow Imitation Jutsu to instantly control Nara El.
Nara El was extremely terrified. Why was there another Nara Ninja around, and why did he control him?
Could it be that the clan head discovered the Shadow Puppet Jutsu he developed? So he sent someone to…
Yoru secretly killed Nara El underwater.
This way, he also saved another teammate.
Zhen Li, as a Chunin, automatically became the squad leader.
Yoru did not change the course of the battle. He split a shadow clone to follow Zhen Li to avoid problems with her, while his main body hid under the collapsed pier, taking out a scroll to record the battlefield situation.
Nara Shikaku and other Ino-Shika-Cho Clan heads fiercely battled Rasa, and Yoru detailed Rasa’s abilities and the performances of the Ino-Shika-Cho Clan heads on the scroll.
Until the end, Nara Shikaku and the other Ino-Shika-Cho Clan heads were defeated, and Nara Shikaku designated the battalion where Yoru was located to cover the rear.
The Captain led two squads to block Rasa, while Yoru led one squad to protect the takeoff glider troops.
Yoru jumped out of the seawater, threw the observation record scroll to the Hippopotamus Squad Leader, and put on the Fox Mask.
Zhen Li faced the increasingly approaching Sand Ninja and became more and more afraid, but she persisted in holding the kunai in front of her.
“Tengbei, don’t be afraid. As your temporary captain, I won’t let you die in front of me.”
Just like in the previous life, a reverent courage arose from Zhen Li’s petite body.
“Chunin Zhen Li, stand behind me.
I’m Konoha Anbu Special Jonin Fox, and now I’m your temporary captain.
How did you say that line earlier?
Don’t be afraid. As your temporary captain, I won’t let you die in front of me.”
This time, Yoru did not start with Earth Spear, but deliberately trained his Bone Shattering Copper Light Taijutsu.
The first Sand Ninja was rushing forward when his chest suddenly took a fist.
His chest abruptly caved in, as if hit at high speed by a solid iron ball.
After his ribs broke, they pierced out from his back.
The second Sand Ninja saw the miserable state of his comrade beside him and thrust a kunai at Yoru.
Yoru caught the kunai with one hand.
The Sand Ninja terrifiedly discovered that his kunai was like it had no edge; no blood seeped from the Konoha Anbu’s finger gaps.
Yoru’s other hand straightened into a hand blade stabbing toward the Sand Ninja’s throat.
The Sand Ninja’s trachea and windpipe instantly caved in, and his cervical vertebrae broke.
A puppet suddenly appeared.
Yoru’s fist easily shattered the puppet shell and bent the internal steel frame.
The puppet’s limbs detached from the body, carrying sharp blades flying toward Yoru, but only tore his clothes, easily blocked by the red copper-colored skin.
One punch after another, Yoru was surrounded by Sand Ninja, seemingly taking hits repeatedly, but actually unscathed.
Whether Sand Ninja or puppets, they were like dry branches and fallen leaves before Yoru.
In repeated actual combats, Yoru’s Taijutsu Bone Shattering Copper Light became more and more proficient.
After gathering the Sand Ninja together, enduring kunai and puppet blades, Yoru finally formed hand seals.
Earth Release·Earth Spear!
A dense thorn forest burst out of the ground, piercing to death more than twenty nearby Sand Ninja.
A captain-like person shouted from afar: “Be careful! He’s not just a Taijutsu ninja; his Ninjutsu is also strong!”
Yoru glanced at that captain and body flickered toward him.
One punch smashed into that captain’s chest.
“I hate captains hiding in the back the most. Why don’t you dare to fight me fair and square?”
The Konoha side’s Captain briefly held back Rasa, while Yoru rampaged in the rear, blocking Sand Ninja trying to pursue the takeoff gliders.
In the previous life, after Yoru crippled half a battalion, Rasa arrived nearby.
This life, Yoru moved faster, his Taijutsu more proficient and efficient, crippling one battalion before Rasa arrived.
Except for Yoru and Zhen Li, whom Yoru deliberately protected, all other Leaf Ninja died at the dock.
To not expose his Water Clone secret, Yoru knocked out Zhen Li and carried her standing on the sea surface.
Yoru saw the numerous Sand Ninja corpses fallen on the dock and was very satisfied.
After blocking Rasa’s gold sand wave with Water Wall Jutsu, Yoru dove into the seawater and water cloned away in the deep sea bottom.
He found the seaside cliff cave he had hidden in in the previous life, summoned Pakkun, and told Pakkun the names of five Nara Ninja.
These five names came from Nara Baika.
In the previous life, Nara Baika already had the will to die; she used the true intelligence of a five-person Nara Clan group to lure Yoru close to her.
After getting the list, Sakumo Hatake would investigate the heinous acts of using teammates as human puppets.
Just like in the previous life, Yoru seriously taught Zhen Li two Earth Release Ninjutsu, Earth Style: Fish in Water Reflection Jutsu and Earth Spear, helping Zhen Li improve her strength.
When he returned to the camp, he heard his title ‘Copper Fox’ and received a mission that surprised him.
He had given Sakumo Hatake a list of five Nara Ninja, and the world line had changed.
The Kiiroinu Captain said:
“Fox, this is a list. Cleanse the people on this list according to it.”
Yoru saw four Nara Ninja on the scroll. He had given Pakkun a five-person list; with Nara El dead, four remained.
Yoru asked: “Nara Clan… Captain, are these four to be nominally executed but secretly released? The Nara Clan is not simple.”
“Fox, don’t complicate the Anbu mission. This time it’s real execution.” Kiiroinu said:
“Vice Commander-in-Chief Sakumo Hatake discovered some mission anomalies. These Nara Ninja were all the sole survivors of their squads.
After investigation, these people all have heinous records of harming teammates.
Commander-in-Chief Nara Shikaku is extremely remorseful and heartbroken. He ordered Anbu to treat them as traitor ninja and execute them.”
His actions after rebirth changed the plot, leading to new changes.
He didn’t know how Nara Shikaku and Sakumo Hatake confronted each other.
After this scandal, the little comradeship between Nara Shikaku and Sakumo Hatake was probably completely consumed.
He had already died once in this full moon cycle. For the upcoming missions, even assassinating a few Chunin or Special Jonin, he had to be extra careful.
