ANBU Base.
The Black Gorilla Squad Commander spoke in a dark room. "Fox, your squad has an urgent mission: hunt down and kill two rogue ninja."
"Commander, are they rogue ninja connected to the Uzumaki Princess?"
"No. They are rogue ninja designated by the Yamanaka Clan. They must be killed immediately, at once, without delay. We cannot wait even a day."
Yagami took the scroll and looked over the mission details in confusion.
This was a critical time for monitoring the Uzumaki Princess, and Uzumaki Mito's funeral was just around the corner. He did not want to miss this feast.
The Nine-Tails, Uzumaki Mito, the Senju Clan, Uzumaki Kushina—if any one of them let him draw the lottery once, he could get something good.
Still, Yagami could not say much.
A mission assigned by ANBU had to be completed. He could only find a way to finish it as soon as possible and return to the village to continue monitoring the Uzumaki Princess.
After carefully reading the scroll twice, Yagami set it down and went to the changing room to gather his squad.
Fox Squad swiftly left the village and headed northwest.
As he walked, Yagami considered the mission.
The Yamanaka Clan had always been the village's perfect tools. The matters they handled were all important and irreplaceable.
Gathering intelligence from the corpses of enemy village ninja, framing others with the Mind Body Switch Technique, relaying orders on the battlefield, and so on.
Back in the Capital of the Land of Waves, Guardian Ninja Yamanaka Karyu had shown Yagami what he could do. The Yamanaka Clan's framing methods left people utterly unable to defend themselves.
They could control an enemy's body, leaving the enemy completely unable to resist.
For the Yamanaka Clan to strongly demand that ANBU carry out this mission, so urgently that ANBU had pulled forces away from monitoring the Uzumaki Princess, those two Yamanaka rogue ninja must have threatened the clan's fundamental interests.
Could it be that the two intended to hand the Yamanaka Clan's secret techniques over to an enemy village?
The mission report did not say what crimes the rogue ninja had committed.
There was too little intelligence to formulate a response.
Yagami glanced at Purple Cat. Purple Cat was a ninja of the Yamanaka Clan.
ANBU had sent his squad because of Purple Cat's identity.
"Purple Cat, the rogue ninja we're hunting are from your Yamanaka Clan. Do you know anything about them?"
Purple Cat hesitated before speaking.
"Captain, there is nothing unusual about the rogue ninja's intelligence.
"The two of them are not very strong. Both are at the chunin level, so our squad is more than capable of killing them."
"Why did they become rogue ninja?"
Faced with Captain Fox's question, Purple Cat once again avoided the subject. "Captain, their matter concerns the Yamanaka Clan's honor. I'm sorry, but I cannot say more. Their combat strength really is not high. Captain, you only need to arrange our tactics normally."
Yagami was somewhat puzzled.
They were not strong, the matter involved the Yamanaka Clan's honor, and the Yamanaka Clan demanded that ANBU kill the traitors immediately.
Then why had the Yamanaka Clan not sent some ninja of its own? Why insist on borrowing ANBU's hand?
After tracking them to a town fifty kilometers outside Konoha, Yagami had the squad search carefully.
According to ANBU intelligence, the two rogue ninja were very likely hiding in this town.
The town was not large. After a little investigation, they learned about the strangers who had recently arrived.
A married couple from out of town had come to the bathhouse over the past few days.
After observing the bathhouse's layout, Yagami said,
"Purple Cat and I will infiltrate through the rear wall of the bathhouse. We'll make a small hole in the wall and scout the rogue ninja.
"Antelope and Black Bull, hide in the treetops behind the bathhouse. Be ready to support us at any time."
Taking Purple Cat to the rear wall of the bathhouse, Yagami used Earth Style Chakra to make a small hole in it.
Pressing one eye against the hole, Yagami looked into the bathing area.
It was a mixed-gender bathhouse, with more than a dozen men and women inside, but none of the rogue ninja from the mission were there.
Yagami did not have Jiraiya's peeping habit. He moved elsewhere and began investigating the private baths of the upscale suites.
His luck was good. After making three holes, Yagami found the targets.
Just as he was about to devise a plan of attack, Yagami hurriedly took a closer look.
"Hm? No, that's wrong. It's not two rogue ninja. There are two more people—four in total!"
He had nearly acted rashly. The intelligence was wrong. If there were four of them, they had to be even more careful.
Purple Cat whispered urgently, "Four people? Please let me see."
Yagami moved aside from the hole and let Purple Cat look.
Purple Cat saw the four people's appearances, and her heart filled with grief. "There are not only two Yamanaka rogue ninja, but also two Yamanaka Clan ninja. They were originally carrying out missions at the border. I don't know why they are here."
"You don't know why?" Yagami whispered.
"Purple Cat, you can't keep hiding intelligence.
"We can launch a direct assault against two rogue ninja, but if there are four, I'm afraid our squad will suffer casualties.
"Casualties are not frightening. Entire ANBU units dying is commonplace.
"But if casualties happen because of an intelligence issue, because the Yamanaka Clan deliberately concealed intelligence, then as the captain, I will not accept it.
"ANBU ninja are prepared to die for the village at any time, but their deaths must have value."
Purple Cat breathed uneasily. "Captain, see for yourself. You'll soon understand why. It isn't that the Yamanaka Clan concealed the intelligence. It's simply too difficult to speak of."
Yagami pressed himself against the small hole and continued looking inside.
The Yamanaka Clan's combat ability was not particularly strong, and they had not yet noticed Yagami.
Of the four, the two rogue ninja were taking the lead, while the two young people who had returned from the border carefully listened to the rogue ninja's explanation.
The speakers were earnest, and the listeners were even more earnest.
Then, a scene that left Yagami dumbfounded unfolded before him.
He had originally thought the craziest thing he might see would be a lustful four-person encounter in a bathhouse.
He never could have imagined this!
Before his transmigration, Yagami had devoured works from China and abroad, from Europe and America, Japan and Korea, even every kind of bizarre niche material. Yet now, he felt like his mind had become exceptionally sluggish.
No... what were they doing?
One man and one woman, paired among the Yamanaka ninja, were each using the Mind Body Switch Technique on the other.
With the Mind Body Switch Technique, Yamanaka Clan ninja could use this technique to control an enemy's body.
Inside the private bath, the woman's soul controlled the man's body, while the man's soul controlled the woman's body.
Then...
What was this?
I...
Slept with...
Me?
Wait, let me sort this out. This was a little confusing.
The Yamanaka female ninja's soul entered the male ninja's body. Then she controlled the male ninja's body and fought herself, the female ninja, for hundreds of rounds.
An upgraded version of the Mind Body Switch Technique?
The Mind Body Switch Mind Switch Technique?
The four people had paired off, developing an advanced application of the Mind Body Switch Technique.
Heretics.
No wonder the Yamanaka Clan wanted these rogue ninja dead immediately. These rogue ninja really deserved to die.
At that moment, Yagami's jealousy of the ninja clans reached its peak.
Why?
Why could Yamanaka Clan ninja, who had mastered the Yamanaka secret techniques, enjoy such novel experiences?
They really deserved to die!
Ninja clans were too detestable!
Yagami took Exploding Tags from his Ninja Tool Pouch and raised a hand to signal antelope and Black Bull behind him to act at once!
Right now!
Immediately!
Exploding Tags were expensive, but he could not care about that now.
After forming Hand Seals, Yagami activated Earth-Corpse Transmigration. The wall rippled like water, and he sank into it.
Boom!
After the explosion, chaos erupted within the private bath.
