Yuu Naito waited for some time until a group of Anbus came to the place.
These Anbus were official members.
Of course, Naito is now an official member too.
âThis is a direct order from the Hokage, Yuu Naito youâre gonna join the Eight Team under the code name Yujin.â
One of the s.h.i.+n.o.bis who appeared to be the Captain of the squad put a doc.u.ment in front of Naito, which had some information about his ident.i.ty and number, it also had some instructions about putting him in the Tactical a.s.sa.s.sination special force team, the Eight Team.
Naito took a glance at the doc.u.ment then he nodded: âWell, this is mean that youâre all members of the Eight Team.â
âYes, and am the Captain of the Eight Team, Horitsu Kudo, am a master of the Fire release and a Kenjutsu user, the code name is Kasai.â (T/N: Kasai: Fire)
The Ninja who handed him the doc.u.ments, nodded then he introduced himself, at the same time, he took off his mask and let Naito see his face, then he put on his mask again.
Since theyâre in the same team, they needed to understand each other before they can cooperate.
The other two Ninjas on the side of him did the same and took off their masks.
âMy name is Asano Senna, am a Puppet Technique user, also a user of poison, code name Ghost.â
Asano Senna was carrying something wrapped with bandages on his back, it seems to be his puppet.
Maybe itâs just one of her puppets.
âI am a member of the Yamanaka Clan, am specialize in mind-related techniques, I can stop or even control the enemyâs movements, However, there are some conditions that need to be met before doing this, code name is Yoru.â (T/N: Yoru: Night)
Naito listens to them while he looked very calm, but also he had few strange expressions.
âIs there a problem?â
Yamanaka felt that Naito was a little bit strange.
Naito shook his head: âNo.â
But Naito really felt strange, isnât Inoâs father one of the Yamanaka Clan too, but this is not her father, maybe heâs her uncle or something?
Although he wanted to know, he didnât ask, after all, none of the Anbus members doesnât know the origins of the other members, the only reason they introduced them self because they needed to form a team, so they needed to build a mutual understanding of each other in order to cooperate.
What made Naito feels strange was that Yamanaka member in front of him wasnât forming a team with the Nara and the Akimichi Clan.
âWell, since the situation is very urgent, thereâs no time for training, we have an urgent mission to do.â
Horitsu said that with a calm tone.
âThe mission is about spying, we need to spy on both the Village hidden by Rock and the Village hidden in by Rain, we need to strike hard if thereâs a chance of a.s.sa.s.sination, this is an urgent mission and we have to start now.â
It wasnât only Naito who was surprised, even Yamanaka and Asano seemed very surprised.
Horitsu nodded and said: âThe situation is very serious, weâve suffered a lot of casualties, we need to reorganize our lines and head back to the battlefield.â
âNaito is a newcomer, although heâs very talented and had great results in the training, this is a real battlefield, and you two will have to take care of him.
âYes.â Yamanaka and Asano nodded.
Naito had a helpless expression, but he didnât say anything, he just followed Horitsu out of the department.
Even Naito didnât expect things to happen this suddenly.
In the blink of an eye, he had to go to the Village hidden by Rain.
This time, despite the urgency, Naito didnât forget to say goodbye to Kus.h.i.+na.
Horitsu and the others also had things to deal with, so after leaving the department, they got separated after they decided to meet at the gate of the village.
Naito took off his mask and cloak then he quickly found Kus.h.i.+na in the village, he told her that he was gonna leave the village for a mission.
During this four months period, Kus.h.i.+na came every day to see Natio but she didnât interfere with his practices, she will stand there looking at him quietly, she knew how strong is Naito.
Even so, she couldnât be able to stop being worried about him, but also she couldnât stop him, so she chose to believe in him.
As a result, she listened to Naito telling her about how heâs going out to the mission with a serious expression, then she came close to him and whispered.
âBe sure to come back safe.â
âYeah, donât worry.â
Naito nodded gently, then he smiled at her, suddenly, he leaned toward her and kissed her on her forehead, after that, he turned around, and in the blink of the eye, he disappeared.
She looked at the direction where Naito left, while she had tears in her eyes, her red cheeks revealed her embarra.s.sment.
After he said his goodbyes to Kus.h.i.+na, Naito put on his mask and cloak again.
The ident.i.ty of the Anbu cannot be revealed, this is the rule.
He stopped in a corner and put on his mask and cloak, then he went all the way to the village gate.
When Naito dresses like this no one will try and stop him, well even if they wanted to stop him they couldnât, with his speed even Jonin wouldnât be able to catch to him.
When he came to the gate, he met up with Horitsu and the other again.
âDid you finished all of your preparations?â
âWell, you canât lose your focus by anything now, you must be vigilant all the time.â
Sarutobi was watching through his crystal ball Naito and the other leaving the village.
âWell I left him in the hands of Horitsu he will take a good care of Naito, as long as there are no accidents, there shouldnât be any problem.â
He whispered that subconsciously Sarutobi wanted to speak to someone, but Sak.u.mo wasnât there, he also was in the Village hidden by Rain.
Heâs the Hokage, he canât let his emotions control him.
The highest commander on the village hidden by Rain was Hatake Sak.u.mo.
At that same time, Danzo also wasnât in Konoha, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, even Tsunade wasnât there, all of them headed to the Village hidden by Rain.
This is was the center of the Second s.h.i.+n.o.bi World War.
âI hope you can survive in this war, with your talent, you will grow even more, it wonât be too far before he reaches the Jonin level.â
Sarutobi didnât add another sentence, with confident eyes he looked at the distance.
The Territory of the Fire Land.
Naitoâs team is advancing at full speed.
Along the way, Horitsu exchanged the vanguard with Asano and Yamanaka but he didnât ask Naito, he just followed them from the back.
Although Naito had an extremely stunning performance in the training, this is now a battlefield, this is the reality.
Even geniuses who didnât experience the true blood and fire are not considered as elites.
In their view, Naito will only be a burden.
Horitsu also received special instructions from Sarutobi, asking him to give more guidance and to take care of Naito, and if itâs necessary he will need to protect him.
