Observation Haki Covers the Entire City

Anko only reluctantly accepted Yeyu's explanation after hearing it.

Yeyu smiled, "Although I am quite confident in my strength, I still have much to learn from you, Anko, when it comes to mission experience."

Yeyu said politely.

Anko beamed with a smile, "It's good that you think that way; a ninja needs more than just strength."

Yeyu nodded with a smile.

However, he knew very well that while a ninja indeed needs more than just strength, strength is the foundation. Without it, everything else is useless, but with it, no other problem is a problem.

Asama Sandayu sent people out to search.

Yet, by the time night fell, they still hadn't found where she was.

Sitting in the room, Anko was not in a hurry.

She hadn't really wanted to carry out this mission that had suddenly taken a turn for the worse in the first place.

She had only agreed because Yeyu said he wanted to do it, and she trusted him.

Now that they couldn't find Kazahana Koyuki and the departure time for the ship tomorrow would be delayed, they wouldn't have to complete the new mission entrusted by Asama Sandayu.

Anko sat cross-legged in front of Yeyu, acting completely carefree, not at all like a twenty-four-year-old woman.

"We still haven't found her; I reckon we're definitely going to miss the ship tomorrow."

"It seems it's heaven's will that we don't accept this commission."

Yeyu leaned against the windowsill, watching Asama Sandayu pacing back and forth in the room in a panic.

He asked Asama Sandayu, "Are you certain Princess Koyuki is still in the city?"

Asama Sandayu nodded, "Princess Koyuki has always been taken care of in the Land of Fire; she has no way to survive on her own."

"Besides, she hasn't been gone long, so it's unlikely she left the city."

"It's just that the capital is so vast, it's very difficult to find where she is."

Asama Sandayu was extremely anxious, thinking, Princess Koyuki, this is our only chance to restore the country; please, do not let anything happen at such a critical moment.

Because of Yeyu's presence, this restoration movement had a very high probability of success.

Asama Sandayu was unwilling to give up this precious opportunity.

Just as Asama Sandayu was in a state of panic, Yeyu closed his eyes.

His Observation Haki was released in an instant.

The terrifying Observation Haki instantly enveloped the entire capital.

Because Yeyu had seen a photograph of Kazahana Koyuki, he knew exactly what she looked like.

Almost in an instant, he locked onto Kazahana Koyuki's location.

"Found her. I'll go bring her back. She's at a tavern in the east of the city; you two head over there later."

Before Asama Sandayu and Anko could even understand what was happening, Yeyu vanished from the room.

Anko looked bewildered, "What on earth is Yeyu talking about?"

"How did he suddenly disappear?"

Because Anko did not know that Yeyu possessed the Flying Thunder God technique, she naturally didn't realize that he had used it to teleport directly to Kazahana Koyuki's location.

Using the Flying Thunder God technique, he appeared over ten kilometers away at a tavern on the outskirts of the capital.

It was a small tavern with a tiny bar that could only seat five or six people, similar in layout to Ichiraku Ramen.

At this moment, Kazahana Koyuki was drinking.

Cup after cup, she was already quite tipsy, her face flushed red.

Yeyu suddenly appeared inside the tavern.

Several men who had been eyeing Kazahana Koyuki frowned, "Hey, kid."

"We saw this woman first. You little brat should just go home to your mother."

"Hahaha!!!"

The men laughed loudly.

Seeing Yeyu walk toward Kazahana Koyuki, they assumed he was trying to cut in.

They were waiting for the drunken woman to pass out so they could take her back and do as they pleased.

In taverns, such things happened often.

Although Kazahana Koyuki had removed her makeup and was disguised, her beauty was eye-catching wherever she went.

Kazahana Koyuki turned her head to look at Yeyu.

"Kid, th-this isn't a place for you."

She was slurring her words, her vision slightly blurred.

Holding a wine glass in one hand, she waved the other at Yeyu.

Yeyu walked over and sat down beside her.

Kazahana Koyuki was stunned.

She had never expected Yeyu to ignore her words and sit right next to her.

The men who had been teasing Yeyu just moments ago saw him dare to sit down, and right next to their prey at that.

They immediately crowded around.

"Kid, are you trying to muscle in?"

Yeyu didn't look at them, turning instead to look at Kazahana Koyuki, saying indifferently, "We're leaving tomorrow. If you drink yourself into this state now, you're going to feel terrible tomorrow. We have to take a boat, you know."

Kazahana Koyuki, who had been dizzy and muddled from the alcohol, sobered up instantly upon hearing this.

She opened her eyes and looked closely at Yeyu.

Realizing he was truly just a child, she chuckled, "Hehehe, kid, are you a ninja sent by that guy Asama Sandayu?"

"Has he gone bankrupt recently? Why would he hire a little kid like you?"

Although Yeyu was already 1.65 meters tall, his face still clearly showed he was only 12 years old.

The men who had surrounded them noticed that Yeyu hadn't even acknowledged them.

He was chatting with their prey as if they didn't exist, which immediately infuriated them. "Brat, don't think we won't hit you just because you're a kid. We actually enjoy bullying those weaker than us."

The men clenched their fists, threatening Yeyu.

Yet, Yeyu didn't pay them any mind at all.

"Come with me now. This is my mission, so please cooperate."

"Hey, brat, are you deaf?"

The men were enraged, roaring at Yeyu.

They made a move as if to strike him.

Yeyu looked impatient. "So annoying. Can you all just be quiet?"

"Hum~"

A terrifying wave of Conqueror's Haki was released in an instant.

Without any warning, the burly men rolled their eyes back and collapsed unconscious in the tavern.

Without sparing the men another glance, Yeyu stared at Kazahana Koyuki. "You've had enough to drink. Let's go, back we go."

Kazahana Koyuki looked at the men who had suddenly collapsed, eyes rolled back as if they had been knocked out with a club.

She was utterly shocked.

"Th-this, what kind of ninjutsu is this?"

"Did you do this?"

Yeyu did not answer. "It's time to go, isn't it?"

"I-I'm not going. I don't want to go to the Land of Snow."

Kazahana Koyuki realized that Yeyu was no simple person; she stood up, intending to run again.

But she had consumed too much alcohol, and as soon as she stood up, she stumbled.

She couldn't even stand steady.

Watching Kazahana Koyuki struggle to get up and try to flee, Yeyu shook his head. "What a pain."

He reached out and tapped her on the shoulder.

In almost an instant, Yeyu and Kazahana Koyuki appeared inside her room.

Kazahana Koyuki didn't even realize they had already returned home.

She was still struggling to crawl up, wanting to escape.

After returning to the room, Yeyu sat on the windowsill and stopped paying any attention to Kazahana Koyuki.

Meanwhile, Asama Sandayu and Anko, who were just about to set off for the address Yeyu had left behind, were both dumbfounded.

Looking at the two who had suddenly appeared in the room, especially Kazahana Koyuki.

Asama Sandayu was shocked, rushing over to help Kazahana Koyuki up. "Miss Fujikaze, y-you, how did you end up drinking like this?"

Usually, Asama Sandayu addressed Kazahana Koyuki by her stage name.
