Civilians in Konoha, forging their own paths

In the Land of Water, the Hidden Mist Village, a ninja dressed as a Chunin walked into a house in a roundabout way. The inside of the house was no different from a normal home. The man walked to the closet and twisted the hanger on the closet. Suddenly, the closet flipped over and a hole appeared. The man entered the hole, the closet flipped back, and the room returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.

However, the man didn't know that just as he entered the secret room, a team of masked ninjas appeared outside the house. From the masks, it could be seen that they were the Anbu ninjas of Kirigakure!

The man didn't know he was being targeted!

"Captain, I sense that Yukimura Gongshan is moving through a secret passage towards a house a hundred meters to the north!" said a member of the Kirigakure Anbu.

"Hmph! They are really well hidden. Leave three of you to guard here, and the rest of you follow me!" said the leader of the Kirigakure Anbu.

A distance of a hundred meters is just a few breaths for a ninja!

Everyone was lying in ambush around the house, which from the outside looked like just an ordinary, inconspicuous residence in the Hidden Mist Village!

"Captain, Yukimura Gongshan is here!" said the Anbu ninja.

"Get ready!" commanded the leader of the Kirigakure Anbu.

Everyone nodded in agreement!

Yukimura Gongshan entered the room through the secret passage, put a scroll into a secret compartment in the floor of the room, and without stopping, returned through the secret passage!

Suddenly, the Kirigakure Anbu broke in through the door and window!

Yukimura Gongshan said inwardly: "Oh no! We're exposed!"

Knowing that he had no way out, Yukimura Gongshan activated the detonating tag on his body without any hesitation!

Seeing this, the Kirigakure Anbu felt their souls flee and quickly retreated!

Boom! With a loud bang, Yukimura Gongshan blew himself up and died! The whole house was blown to pieces!

"Damn it! This Yukimura Gongshan blew himself up so decisively, which shows how deeply he has hidden his identity and it cannot be exposed! He only pulled out one nail but can't dig out a whole bunch! It's really disappointing!" said the leader of the Kirigakure Anbu.

"Captain, a broken scroll was found in the ruins!" said an Anbu who was searching.

"Send it to the Anbu base immediately and decipher it quickly! Hopefully we can get some useful information!" said the leader of the Kirigakure Anbu.

Soon, the deciphering results of the Anbu came out. Most of the information was damaged. The part that could be deciphered was limited, which was some confidential information about Kirigakure. The destination was sent back to Konoha Village!

"Is he a spy from Konoha? Tsk! What a pity!" The leader of the Kirigakure Anbu reported the results to the Third Mizukage.

At this point, the case of eliminating spies in Kirigakure has come to an end!

A week later, Konoha's intelligence department had learned that Yukimura Gongshan's lurking in Kirigakure had been eliminated, and reported it to the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen smoked his pipe and listened to the report from the intelligence department. He sighed, "The Hidden Mist Village is xenophobic and closed. Every person who sneaks in is very valuable. It will be extremely difficult to send someone in again!"

"You step back first! I will arrange a new spy!" said Sarutobi Hiruzen.

After the head of the Intelligence Department exited the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen said, "Go to the Root and call Elder Danzo!"

There was a slight ripple in the hidden corner of the Hokage's office, and some Anbu guards were already heading for the Root.

"Let the Root send out spies!" Sarutobi Hiruzen thought as he took two more puffs of his pipe.

The Root was successfully established in the past two years and has taken on most of Konoha's shady tasks. Due to the short time of its establishment, most of its members were directly recruited from the ninja clans, and there were also very few ordinary civilian ninjas. They had not yet reached the point of attacking the orphanage. That should have been something that Danzo did after World War II, when the Root suffered heavy losses!

"However, with the establishment of the Root, Danzo's power has increased greatly. A lot of information passes through him first, and he has a lot of first-hand information. This..." Sarutobi Hiruzen was thinking when Danzo pushed the door and entered the Hokage's office.

"Monkey, what do you want from me? The Root is very busy!" said Danzo.

An hour later, Danzo walked out of the Hokage's office.

"Danzo, don't blame me." Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and made up his mind.

In the evening, Sarutobi Hiruzen summoned Dihuangmaru.

"Hokage-sama, Yu is on standby!" Dihuangwan said, kneeling on one knee.

"Yu, there is a top-secret mission for you to complete!" said Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Dihuangwan was shocked after hearing this. It was the first time he saw Sarutobi Hiruzen so serious, "Hokage-sama, please give me your orders!"

"Konoha's spies in Kirigakure have been discovered, causing heavy losses. We need new spies to infiltrate and provide new intelligence. I have arranged for the Root to re-establish a spy network in Kirigakure!" said Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"So what I mean is to monitor the actions of the roots?" Dihuang Wan said.

"No! I want you to sneak into the Hidden Mist Village alone! As a spy for the Anbu, provide intelligence to Konoha!" said Sarutobi Hiruzen.

After hearing Dihuangwan's reaction, Sarutobi Hiruzen realized that he was worried about the roots. The seeds of doubt had been planted in the early stages of the roots' establishment!

"Yes, Lord Hokage!" Dihuangwan had no choice. It would be nice to go to another village to play, and it should be the Hidden Mist Village, where there are many water-style treasures!

"Yu, you don't have a summoning beast yet!" said Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Yes, not yet!" The spiritual beast has little effect on the Rehmannia Pill, so it has not been looked for.

"This is the summoning scroll of my Sarutobi clan. My Sarutobi clan and the Monkey Clan have signed a contract for hundreds of years. I will make an exception and grant you temporary summoning qualifications! Please write your name!" After saying this, Sarutobi Hiruzen took out a scroll, but it was obviously not a summoning scroll.

"Is it a sub-scroll? It doesn't matter. I have no interest in the monkey clan," Dihuangwan thought.

But he still said on the surface: "Thank you, Hokage!" and then signed his name.

"This contract is used to transmit information. Use the summoning technique to hand over the information to the monkey. Release the summoning technique and the information will be transmitted back to the monkey clan's base. I will retrieve the information then!" said Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"There is no time limit for your undercover mission this time. Before I recall you, this undercover mission is your only mission! I will commend you based on the importance of the intelligence you pass back!" said Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"To the outside world, I will announce that you are going to the Wind Country to carry out a long-term mission! Only you, me, and Hatake Sakumo know about this undercover mission in the Kirigakure! Go back and prepare! Let's set off tomorrow!" said Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Yes, Lord Hokage!" Dihuangwan disappeared in a flash.

Dark dressing room,

"Damn, it's actually a long-term mission! It's like I'm being exiled! Although I really want to go out of the village to play, this will take too long! I can't bear to leave my Feiyun!" Dihuangwan thought to himself.

But he also understood that among the Anbu's direct teams, the only one who was suitable for the undercover mission in Kirigakure and had enough strength was himself, who was good at water escape and had the ability to perceive.

At night, Dihuang Wan asked Anma Feiyun to have a date at his home. He didn't know how long he would be away, so he told Anma Feiyun that he was going to carry out a secret mission and it would take a long time. The two hugged each other for a long time and were reluctant to leave each other.

Dihuang Wan couldn't help himself and Anma Feiyun couldn't restrain himself, which almost led to an accidental shooting between the two of them, but they controlled themselves at the last moment!
