Night Raid

"Holy crap! Is this Shadow Clone Technique cursed? Or are transmigrators cursed? Why do they all love to cause trouble?!" Shiro's face immediately darkened after receiving the Shadow Clone Technique's memories.

To be honest, the last thing Shiro wanted to mess with was the Uchiha. That clan was like they had cheat codes; one wrong move and they'd awaken the Sharingan and immediately take off. If Mizuki retaliated, where would he put his face?

Although he felt very embarrassed, Shiro still had to go over there. He still had to see Minamoto no Raiko, no, he had to apologize, since showing off wasn't his intention, it was Shadow Clone Technique!

On his way there, Shiro pondered whether the Shadow Clone Technique was poisonous to modern people, as it could even go off on its own! Originally, Shiro thought that the Shadow Clone Technique hadn't made any moves for so long.

Who knew it actually existed? This awful Ninjutsu!

Amidst the complaints, Shiro arrived at the lake.

Actually, it wasn't anything serious. As the price for showing off, Shiro taught them some mission experience, but it wasn't anything important anyway.

Afterwards, Shiro even helped them clean up the trash in the lake; otherwise, at their pace, it would have taken them two or three days to finish, affecting Shiro's efficiency in completing tasks.

After returning to the village, Heiichi and the others wanted to invite Shiro to dinner, but Shiro declined, citing his training as the reason. During the day, Shiro felt that he had some new ideas for Reinforcement Magecraft, and he wanted to go back and try them out as soon as possible.

"I'm back."

"Yes, I'm back. By the way, Shiro, are you free tomorrow?"

"Yes, what's up, Mom?"

"Then come with me to meet a friend tomorrow."

"That's fine, but Mom, why are you bringing me along when you meet your friends?"

"Well, go ahead, can't I at least show off my Chunin son?"

"Well, I'm glad you're happy. I'll go and tell Mr. Sakumo later."

"Okay, by the way, take this with you later." After saying that, she took out a gift box and handed it to Shiro, saying, "Here, these are some snacks for children. Doesn't your teacher have a child? Take this to him."

"Okay, I will. I'll go take a shower first."

So, following his mother's orders, Shiro had no choice but to put aside his cultivation for now and go to Sakumo's place first, since it wouldn't make a difference if he waited a little longer.

After taking a bath and changing his clothes, Shiro carried his things to the Hatake Residence.

"Good evening, Master." After entering, Shiro first bowed, then handed the things in his hand to Sakumo. "Master, these are what my mother prepared for Kakashi."

"Sigh, why is it here again? Didn't I already tell you?"

"There's nothing we can do about it, that's just how they think. Anyway, it's nothing valuable, so let them be. As long as they're happy."

"Sigh, there's nothing I can do. By the way, is there something you need?"

"Yes, my mom wants me to go with her to meet a friend tomorrow, so I'm asking you for the day off."

"Oh, that's alright. You can handle this."

"Okay, Master, I'll go back to train now. Goodbye, Master, and you too, Kakashi."

"Okay, goodbye."

"Goodbye, Shiro Brother."

After leaving the Hatake Residence, Shiro slowly walked back, gazing at the starry sky as he went. To be honest, it had been a long time since Shiro had seen so many stars.

He had been so busy with his training that he hadn't noticed this beautiful scenery before. In Shiro's memory, he had only seen such a scene when he was a child.

Looking at the beautiful starry sky, Shiro felt much more relaxed.

Suddenly, Shiro stopped in his tracks. "Come out, stop hiding, you on the left."

"As expected of White Fang Fang's disciple, Emiya Shiro, Danzo requests your presence at the Anbu; he has something to discuss with you."

"Oh, really? Lead the way."

"Yes."

"Call out!"

Just as the other person turned around, Shiro instantly threw the kunai in his hand.

With a "clang!", Shiro's kunai was instantly sent flying.

"What does Lord Shiro mean by this? Are you disobeying Danzo's orders?"

"Heh, what? Still pretending?"

"As expected of White Fang's disciple, I'm curious, how did you know?"

"Hmph, first of all, Danzo isn't in charge of the Anbu. Secondly, since he knows my master is White Fang, why would he try to fool me with the Anbu?"

Third, the Anbu are not in that direction.

"And one last thing, after all this time, is everyone here yet?"

"Hmph, how arrogant! You'll die here today!"

"I see. Could you please explain this to me? Which village are you from? How dare you cause trouble in Konoha?"

"Hmph, go think about it in hell!"

"Tch." Shiro leaped aside, dodging the attack. "Sorry, I'm too ugly for hell."

"Hmm?" At the same time, a kunai appeared in Shiro's hand. "Kirigakure? Are they that reckless?"

"You've got some skills, let's all attack together." The opponent was getting impatient as they couldn't seem to hit Shiro.

"Tch, don't talk nonsense, I'm not a spearman."

After struggling with the other party for a while, Shiro finally spoke up, "Guess why my teacher hasn't come to save me yet? I already sent him a message earlier."

"Damn it! Mission failed! Retreat!"

"Retreat? Do you think it's that easy? I've managed to hold out until now with great difficulty, you know! Summoning Technique!"

"Bang!"

As Shiro finished speaking, a giant snake blocked their path.

"Hey, Blue Snake, you've gotten bigger again."

"Hiss~ This way I can continue fighting alongside you, Lord Shiro."

"Ha. I like hearing that. Hey, I'm telling you, how long are you going to keep waiting? If you don't come soon, all the credit will be mine."

As soon as they finished speaking, several masked ninjas surrounded them.

"I thought you guys weren't coming out. Let's make this clear first, leave that guy to me. Don't worry, I'll guarantee the body will be intact."

"Don't make too much noise."

"No problem!"

"You wretched brat! You've gone too far!"

Having said that, he roared and charged towards Shiro!

"Hmm? Interesting. Too bad, I already know all your Ninjutsu. Perfect, let's try out my new move, Blue Snake, Snake Illusion Bind!"

"Yes, Lord Shiro."

"Hiss~~~"

With a piercing sound, the other party felt their body slip out of control. "Impressive! But you won't get anything, hahaha, explode!"

"Sealing Jutsu: Suppressing Flow and Shisui"

However, as Shiro cast the Sealing Jutsu on him, the violent fluctuations of Chakra within his body immediately stopped.

"Huh? What's going on?"

"You're curious why we didn't expose him, right? Because... I'm not telling you." He then turned to the Anbu and said, "OK, mission accomplished, captured alive."

The members of the Anbu said nothing and left with their men.

"Blue Snake, you've worked hard. You should go back and rest."

"Yes, Lord Shiro."

"Hiss~ Huff~" Shiro took a deep breath and turned back. When he first discovered them, Shiro had intentionally led them away from his house to avoid accidentally hurting them.

Shiro didn't really care how they bypassed the perception barrier; that was something the Third Hokage and his crew should be concerned with. Judging from the speed of the Anbu's reaction, they probably had some kind of plan involved.

Shiro didn't want to get involved in this mess. What he was more curious about was that Kirigakure would actually send someone to attack Konoha at this time. They were really bold. However, Shiro felt that a war probably wouldn't break out.

These will most likely become "missing-nin," and then Konoha will help capture them, "sending" some gifts to Konoha to maintain good relations. The process may be different, but the result should be similar.

The world is bustling with activity, all for the sake of profit; the world is in turmoil, all for the sake of gain.

No matter how you look at it, it all comes down to the word "profit".
