Chapter 56: So This Is What Ninjas Are Like
Yoru found the mission records of Kurozaru Squad again.
The missions still ongoing included Whirlpool Princess surveillance, Hidden Stone Village spy system investigation, and a few others that Yoru hadn’t participated in.
He immediately saw a familiar name, Qiao Yi.
Qiao Yi’s spy identity had indeed aroused Anbu’s suspicion, but for this trap, suspected spies like Qiao Yi with relatively minor harm had not been cleansed.
In the investigation records about Qiao Yi, there was also his own name.
Yagura Squad had been responsible for surveilling Qiao Yi and discovered him appearing in Qiao Yi’s store. Yagura thought Fox’s behavior was suspicious.
Kurozaru then wrote his opinion below: Fox had suspected Qiao Yi’s identity in a previous mission and might be continuing to investigate secretly.
After that, Yoru had gone with Captain Kurozaru to Qiao Yi’s store and found a Cloud Ninja Spy, then followed the spy to rescue the abducted Whirlpool Princess.
At the end of the investigation scroll was Kurozaru Squad Leader’s conclusion: Fox has no problem, no need for suspicion. If Fox were really a spy, would there be a more valuable target than the Whirlpool Princess?
So that’s how it was. By a twist of fate, Anbu had actually done so much.
Yoru found Purple Cat and had Purple Cat go to Root to request personnel to supplement Fox Squad and Kurozaru Squad.
After Purple Cat went to Root to select new recruits, Yoru left the Anbu Base and headed to Qiao Yi’s Tsuruzuki Izakaya.
Tsuruzuki Izakaya had a closed sign up today.
Yoru thought to himself, this busty brainless foolish woman, closing at this time wasn’t telling Anbu she had a problem?
It was just good luck that Kurozaru Squad had temporarily lost function and Yagura Squad was wiped out, otherwise Qiao Yi would be in Anbu’s interrogation room tonight.
“Open up!”
A woman’s voice came from inside.
“Sorry! Not open tonight!”
“It’s me!”
A sound of tables and chairs moving came from inside.
The door opened, and Yoru saw Qiao Yi with many wrinkles in her clothes.
There was despairing terror in the depths of her eyes, like a startled little cat.
“Closing early is good, tonight serve only me.”
Yoru walked inside on his own.
After Qiao Yi closed the door, she hurriedly followed Yoru and asked cautiously, “What mission have you been on these past few days? Why haven’t you come to find me?”
She was thinking in her heart that Hidden Stone Village on Ushi-ga Mountain not far from Konoha had suffered such a huge blow, and inside Konoha Village people were all running around celebrating. As a spy, she might have reached the end.
She was going to die.
Neither Konoha Village nor Hidden Stone Village could tolerate her.
“Did you go on the mission to strike Stone Ninja at Ushi-ga Mountain?”
Hearing Qiao Yi’s words, Yoru turned around and looked down at Qiao Yi.
Qiao Yi had a momentary panic at first, then stubbornly raised her head to meet Yoru’s gaze.
Yoru thought to himself, what a pity, Qiao Yi already had the will to die.
“Of course not, with my strength how could I possibly participate in that kind of mission? Hidden Stone Village lost 6 elite jonin, over 30 jonin, more than 300 chunin, truly gratifying.”
After Yoru finished speaking, he saw Qiao Yi’s chest trembling uncontrollably.
Her mouth pursed, already on the verge of collapse.
Yoru said, “Get me a bottle of wine. No matter what happens tomorrow, tonight we should enjoy it, don’t you think?”
“No matter what happens tomorrow?” Qiao Yi swallowed her saliva with difficulty, finally saying, “Yeah, no matter what happens tomorrow, it’s tomorrow’s business.”
Qiao Yi pounced forward, knocking Yoru down onto the sofa.
On the sofa, on the table, on the counter, every time Yoru tried to take the dominant position, Qiao Yi would resist crazily and then pin him beneath her.
Qiao Yi was like a madwoman, venting her stress.
Yoru couldn’t resist and in the end frankly enjoyed it.
Qiao Yi’s waist was extremely tight and firm, without a bit of excess fat, like a sculpture.
Yoru suddenly remembered that when he drew the lottery before, one option was Physique · Giant Rock Body. Perhaps Stone Ninja’s training methods led to such abnormally firm bodies.
That was the village that would later produce Leg Shadow. Qiao Yi’s legs were similarly straight and round, full of a sense of strength.
After the passion, Yoru secretly picked up a dinner knife, extremely hesitant in his heart.
To eliminate any danger and suspicion to himself, he should now mercilessly cleanse Qiao Yi.
Qiao Yi lay on Yoru’s chest, unaware of Yoru’s inner thoughts.
She murmured, “If… if… I just followed you, how good that would be.”
Yoru gently put down the dinner knife, wrapped his arms around Qiao Yi’s smooth back, and pressed her deeply against his chest.
He didn’t know how much time passed before Yoru fell into a deep sleep.
Qiao Yi got up, cleaned Yoru’s body, and put clothes on him.
She finally glanced at Yoru on the counter, withdrew her reluctance, turned and left, exiting the izakaya from the back door.
Everything related to Konoha Village was over.
Inside the izakaya, Yoru suddenly opened his eyes.
Qiao Yi left the izakaya and came to a park in the southern district of the village.
It was called a park, but it was more like a large area of greenery.
The big trees here were lush and dense; once one entered in the dark night, people outside couldn’t see anything.
Qiao Yi painstakingly searched at the root of every big tree for Hidden Stone Village’s code.
After searching for an hour, Qiao Yi found the signal and waited under the big tree indicated by the signal.
Not long after, a person crawled out from the bushes in the distance.
“Mei Yi, is that you?”
Qiao Yi’s younger sister slowly crawled up from the ground.
“Sister, your mission is finally over. Come back to the village with me.”
But there was no joy at all on Qiao Yi’s face.
The intelligence she passed had led to the village’s great defeat. Vortex Mito showed no signs of decline at all and still had very strong combat power.
Qiao Yi understood the village; even if she returned, what she would face was Hidden Stone Village Anbu’s terrifying interrogation.
But for her sister’s future in the village, Qiao Yi had no choice but to go back.
“Alright, sister, let’s go back.”
Mei Yi pounced forward and hugged Qiao Yi tightly.
In the dense forest of Konoha Village’s park, a pair of Hidden Stone Village sisters giving each other support and strength…
“Wha…”
A kunai stabbed into Qiao Yi’s abdomen!
Qiao Yi looked at Mei Yi in terror, her eyes full of confusion and despair.
“Sister! You shouldn’t have betrayed the village! The village has issued a kill order on you! All the spies in Konoha Village have already betrayed the village!”
Qiao Yi cried, “Mei Yi, I’m willing to go back to the village with you. As long as I clear my suspicion in the Torture Department, you won’t be affected…”
Mei Yi steeled her heart; only by killing her traitor sister and personally bringing back her head could she dispel the village’s suspicions about herself!
She stepped back half a step, lifted her leg to kick the kunai deep into Qiao Yi’s abdomen, then drew another kunai and stabbed toward Qiao Yi’s throat!
Qiao Yi suddenly smiled.
So, all these years of her efforts had only moved herself.
Under Hidden Stone Village’s influence, her sister had already become a ninja who only ever considered the village and herself.
Ninja… was this what a ninja was?
The kunai stabbed into Qiao Yi’s throat.
Pa!
A large hand grabbed Mei Yi’s wrist.
Mei Yi discovered in terror that the kunai had only pierced half a centimeter into Qiao Yi’s throat.
Not only that, curse marks appeared all over Mei Yi’s body, and all her joints were sealed.
Yoru was very satisfied; it had been a long time since he used the Karma Seal of Retribution, but it was still so efficient.
Yoru pinched Mei Yi’s chin and sized up Mei Yi:
“Very good. Hidden Stone Village spy discovers she looks very much like Konoha villager Qiao Yi, and using this coincidence, carried out many spy activities.
That’s barely passable. You can die now, Hidden Stone Village spy.”
