Chasing Fang continued leading Neji forward. This time, none of the unexpected incidents that should not have happened occurred.
After touring the rest area, Chasing Fang brought Neji to the equipment room. All kinds of ninja tools lay on the long tables inside, from standard shuriken to specially made smoke bombs.
"ANBU equipment can be taken freely, but it has to be registered." Chasing Fang pointed at the logbook on the wall. "Can your Ninja Talismans... also be supplied for the team's use?"
Neji caught the anticipation in Chasing Fang's words. He smiled faintly. "Of course. I've already prepared a batch of Ninja Talismans designed specifically for ANBU, including the Shadow Release Talisman I demonstrated earlier, as well as Silence Talismans, Disguise Talismans, and more."
Chasing Fang's eyes lit up. "That's great! For some reconnaissance missions, conventional ninjutsu can easily expose us. If we had Ninja Talismans to assist us..."
"I'll bring some samples tomorrow," Neji promised. "But..." He lowered his voice. "These Ninja Talismans will only be supplied to our team, right?"
Chasing Fang nodded knowingly. "Of course. The other teams... have their own channels."
After leaving the equipment room, Chasing Fang showed Neji the intelligence room, medical room, and emergency exits. Throughout the tour, Neji remained highly alert. Not only did he memorize the base's layout, but he also watched every ANBU member who might have been monitoring them.
"Lastly, the dormitory area." Chasing Fang pushed open an iron door. "ANBU members must live in the base while carrying out missions. That's the rule."
The dormitory area was a long corridor lined with dozens of small rooms on both sides. Chasing Fang pointed to one at the end of the hallway. "That's your room. The conditions are basic, but it has everything you need."
Neji pushed the door
