The last time I actually tried exploiting bugs was in early summer, when I almost crashed the system.

I was young then, but things are different now.

Not only should you glitch, but you should glitch boldly! Be daring to experiment and outplay the system.

Upon arriving in the Land of Birds, Neji his team to investigate the strategist Hongming, who was the prime suspect, since Hongming was the current Daimyo's biggest rival.

Naruto knew the truth, but he patiently followed along with the investigation.

There's nothing wrong with Hongming; if you don't jump to conclusions, you naturally won't find anything. And clearly, Neji and Tenten have realized this as well.

In this situation, either Hongming hidden, or Meng Zong has a serious problem. Those who truly have problems cannot withstand scrutiny, and Meng Zong quickly attracted Neji's attention.

Things are finally getting back on track, and the rest is easy.

As the group investigated Meng Zong, they became increasingly suspicious of him. Not only was he not a highly accomplished monk, but he also had close ties with a mysterious organization.

The three of them would occasionally listen to Shinpachi 'Chishima rambling reminiscences, which sounded just like Shinpachi's, as he recalled his childhood friendship with Daimyo Rigi.

"His personality has changed? Is he still the same Shogun?" Naruto glanced at Chishima. "Aren't you supposed to be the Daimyo's childhood friend? How come you can't even explain why his personality has changed?"

"Perhaps it was because of the deaths of his father and sister that he..." Chishima said somewhat reluctantly.

"Maybe they just don't want to see you." Naruto maintained his composure, but there was one more thing he didn't say: Toki, disguised as a boy, was afraid of being discovered by someone she knew.

"Stop talking, they're already here," Tenten warned.

As night fell and the Ghost Samurai descended from the sky, Naruto threw several Shuriken at them.

The Ghost Samurai, suspended by the kite, fell to the ground with a thud. Upon seeing this, the three exchanged glances, already knowing the answer in their hearts.

The so-called Ghost Samurai are nothing more than kite warriors.

It was just a person who appeared out of nowhere, using an enormous black kite one night.

"The Ghost Samurai was indeed a fake, hurry and chase after him."

"Stop chasing, someone's surrounding us," Neji said. "We can't fight the soldiers from the Land of Birds, we need to get out of here first."

"This is so troublesome," Naruto complained.

"That's how ninjas are, stop complaining, let's go." Tenten pulled Naruto along, and the three of them left the woods.

That night, Meng Zong's men surrounded the residences of Neji, Tenten, and Naruto, and found the Ghost Samurai's armor in the home of the strategist Hongming.

Sensing something amiss, Meng Zong began to close the net. All that was needed was to kill the strategist Hongming. To Meng Zong, a Daimyo young daimyo was no match for him; from then on, he would be the sole ruler of the Land of Birds.

Neji, not wanting to clash with the army of the Land of Birds, once again issued the order to break out.

In the woods.

The night wind was bleak, and the three who had broken out separately reunited as originally agreed.

Moonlight streamed into the forest, and the fallen leaves rustled beneath our feet.

Neji frowned and said, "The matter is already quite clear. Hongming is not the mastermind behind the Ghost Samurai. This matter is most likely related to Meng Zong."

"Moreover, Meng Zong and his strategist Hongming must have guessed the identity of the Ghost Samurai, which is why Meng Zong acted first."

"So what do we do now?" Naruto asked.

"We'll split into two groups," Neji replied. "Tenten and I will infiltrate the execution ground to rescue Hongming, Naruto, you find a way to enter the Daimyo's Residence and tell Daimyo the truth."

"In that case, our mission is complete."

He's right. Konohagakure's mission is to uncover the true identity of the Ghost Samurai and drive Ghost Samurai away. If Hongming dies, the trail to the Ghost Samurai will go cold again.

Neji and Tenten could only take Hongming away legitimately if they did so by revealing Meng Zong's plot to the Daimyo of the Land of Birds and having the Daimyo strip Meng Zong of his title as national advisor.

"Okay." Naruto didn't seem to mind.

Eliminate Meng Zong and his group, and you'll get the reward of Impure World Reincarnation. As for Toki, she's not completely out of her mind; she should know what to do.

As night deepened, Naruto silently slipped into the Daimyo's Residence.

Having evaded the servants and patrolling soldiers, and waiting for the right moment, he quietly climbed onto the roof of the Daimyo's Residence's residence. He lightly leaped all the way, landing directly above the Daimyo's room.

With a soft thud, Naruto landed gently on the ground like a falling leaf.

At this moment, Toki's hair was not tied up and was loose on both sides. Her Ghost Samurai armor had just been removed, revealing her inner clothing, and she was still in the process of removing her armor.

The palace was vast, almost like a royal bedchamber, with a bed large enough to accommodate ten people lying together. Palace lanterns burned slowly, illuminating the entire palace.

"You!--"

Toki was so incompetent that she didn't even notice Naruto's arrival. Suddenly, she looked up and saw a blond guy landing right off the roof.

She was stunned, then suddenly remembered that she hadn't completely removed her armor and her secret had been exposed, and a murderous intent arose within her.

Before he could even utter the word "you," Naruto's pupils dilated slightly, his reaction was incredibly fast, without the slightest hesitation.

A Monkey Climbs Mountain, its body spinning in mid-air, then slapped the Toki's beak shut, sat on her, and slammed her to the ground.

He showed no mercy to women; his teammates only had one life.

If he acts like a saint and something goes wrong, Neji and Tenten will be forced into a dangerous situation where they have to fight against the army of the Land of Birds.

"Don't speak."

He raised his hand, Lava Release instantly filled his palm, melting through the floor right in front of her.

"If you don't want your face to look like that, you'd better keep quiet now. I don't have the patience to talk to you."

Seeing the fear in Toki's eyes, Naruto continued.

"I am a ninja from Konohagakure."

Introducing themselves as employees reassures customers; despite being temporary workers, they maintain professional ethics.

Sure enough, Princess Toki, who was pinned to the floor and trembling with fear, showed less fear in her eyes after hearing the word "Konohagakure ninja".

After Naruto released her mouth, she took a deep breath and said with dissatisfaction.

"The relationship between the Land of Birds and Konohagakure is so-so. Even if they are Konohagakure ninjas, you can't..."

Naruto ignored her completely and interrupted her.

"We have found out that the Imperial Preceptor Meng Zong is the leader of the wandering ninjas. He killed your father and brother."

"What?" Toki was stunned. "How did you know?"

"The strategist Hongming has been framed and taken away by Meng Zong. As the Daimyo of the Land of Birds, you would better lead your men there now to stop Meng Zong."

Why should I believe you?

"I knew you'd ask that." Naruto chuckled, then suddenly slapped her. "Wake up! I'm Konoha Ninja, what do I have to do with you?"

"You!!"

"Smack!"

I'm going to kill you!

"Slap! Slap!"

Toki's face immediately swelled up, and she dared not shout anymore, whimpering.

"I hate troublesome employers like you the most. Do you expect us to die for such a small reward?" Naruto said. "You're so incompetent, you can't even figure out the investigation."

"Now that I've told you the answer, what are you being so smug about?"

Toki, having been slapped several times, stared wide-eyed at the blond-haired man with an incredulous look. But Naruto's brow furrowed slightly, clearly showing no intention of stopping.

Seeing that the man's hand was raised again, Toki wanted to resist but was wary of Naruto's high-temperature Lava Release.

"Okay! I'll go!"

"What do you mean 'you go'? This is what you're supposed to do. Aren't you the Revenge Princess?" Naruto stared down at Toki. "Go now."
