"This time, we had Ultraman to rely on!" The captain praised, looking just as weak as Mirai.
"It was nothing!" Mirai sighed. Being chased for thousands of miles felt awful. He was exhausted in both body and mind! He felt like his whole body had curled up! Once this mission was over, he would apply for leave. A ninja's life was truly tiring! Especially in ANBU—there were no two-day weekends or eight-hour workdays! His soul was already thirty years old, yet he still could not get used to this!
As he spoke, he did not forget to look toward the border of the Land of Wind. "But it's still a pity this time. It would have been nice if I could have seen Haku," he said.

Haku looked at the three weakened men with great interest. Then she looked at Mirai and smiled. "Aren't you afraid that Haku is an impostor here
