Kakashi and the Others Were Shocked Again! Ning Feng Became the Anbu Squad Captain

Standing nearby, Hana Inuzuka suddenly felt as though she were a fake sensory ninja.

For the first time, someone else in the squad had outshone her.

After all, every time the Anbu carried out a mission, Hana Inuzuka had made the entire team far safer, earning praise from several captains.

During this infiltration of Amegakure, Hana Inuzuka had intended to really show what she could do. She had never expected a kid who had only just joined the Anbu to surpass her in sensory abilities.

Of course, Ning Feng would never say that, as a player, all he had to do was look at the names above their heads.

He merely gave a mysterious smile and said nothing more.

Seeing this, Kakashi and Hana Inuzuka did not press him. They knew perfectly well that many ninja who possessed secret ninjutsu behaved this way. After all, they understood that possessing something precious could make one a target.

"Number 9, since you can sense other people's locations from so far away, I'll leave you in charge of this infiltration of Amegakure for now!"

Kakashi suddenly spoke.

Both just now and back at the start in Konoha, Number 9-Ning Feng-had consistently displayed exceptional talent for combat. No one could have been better suited to commanding this squad.

In fact, Kakashi also wanted to see just how much potential this kid had yet to reveal.

Beside him, Uchiha Itachi gave Ning Feng an affectionate look and actually nodded firmly as well.

Hana Inuzuka, meanwhile, looked curious.

"You're really putting me in charge?"

Ning Feng had not expected Kakashi to hand him command of the squad.

But Kakashi probably did this to help me gain experience faster, right?!

With that thought, Ning Feng accepted without ceremony. "Then I'll take temporary command of the Anbu squad's operations."

"Just now, I sensed someone from the Ibuse Clan five thousand meters away. Judging by the flow of chakra in his body, he should have jonin-level strength. He's the strongest among them."

"Like Hanzo of the Salamander, the man from Amegakure known as the demigod, he wears thick armor on his head. I suspect he should possess the same ninjutsu as Hanzo of the Salamander, allowing him to release Ibuse's poison."

"As for the others, four sensory ninja are spread out two thousand meters away, while the remaining eight are three thousand meters away. Their chakra is concentrated beneath their feet. I suspect they should be assassination-type ninja who focus on speed!"

Ning Feng had said nothing before, but once he spoke, Kakashi, Uchiha Itachi, and Hana Inuzuka were all stunned. Kakashi in particular was utterly shocked.

Just what kind of secret technique did this kid possess that allowed him to see through the enemy's chakra flow?

But that was not the crucial part. What mattered most was that Ning Feng could actually deduce the enemy's various abilities from that chakra flow.

Normally, gathering this intelligence was left to swift-moving sensory ninja, and it was extremely dangerous.

Yet Ning Feng had analyzed so much without even stepping outside...

This, this was simply...

"I suddenly have a feeling..."

Kakashi suddenly shrugged and exchanged glances with Uchiha Itachi and Hana Inuzuka. "The younger generation really is overtaking the old!"

After a quiet cough, Kakashi quickly said, "The intelligence Number 9 has analyzed is incredibly useful. In addition, Konoha has intelligence from past encounters with Amegakure's demigod, Hanzo of the Salamander. Ever since he was little, he extracted Ibuse's poison and stored it in an air sac inside his body."

"Because of that, every breath Hanzo of the Salamander took released a surge of poison gas. During the Second Shinobi World War, he caused enormous trouble for many Konoha ninja."

"Even Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and the others were helpless against Hanzo of the Salamander's poison and were nearly killed by him. But it was also because of this that Hanzo of the Salamander called them the legendary Sannin."

"Since the ninja leading them is also a member of the Ibuse Clan, I'm afraid he possesses the same ninjutsu. We must be careful!"

At this point, Kakashi drew a deep breath, feeling keenly that they had encountered a formidable opponent on this Anbu mission.

"I've heard of the Ibuse Clan. Their weakness is their poison sac. Once it's destroyed, they lose everything they rely on. Also, after members of the Ibuse Clan release their poison gas, they need five minutes to replenish it."

"Now I'll lay out our tactics!"

Ning Feng spoke decisively.

Upon hearing this, Kakashi, Uchiha Itachi, and the others, who were already shocked, were stunned all over again.

This kid even knew the Ibuse Clan's weakness?

Hana Inuzuka had initially been somewhat unhappy about Kakashi handing command over to Ning Feng. But after hearing his words, she fell completely silent, her eyes filled with admiration.

For some reason, Hana Inuzuka suddenly felt that a great hero of this generation was about to burst onto the scene before her!

Kakashi, Uchiha Itachi, and the others immediately nodded seriously.

If they had previously only wanted to see how capable Ning Feng was, now they were completely reassured.

With intelligence on the enemy, the Anbu squad would sweep all before it! No one could stop them!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Once the tactics had been laid out, Kakashi, Uchiha Itachi, Hana Inuzuka, and the others immediately turned into streaks of light and vanished without a trace, setting off to carry out the tasks Ning Feng had assigned them.

Watching Kakashi and the others leave, the smile on Ning Feng's face grew broader and broader.

This battle of his, Uchiha Minato's, was destined to go down in the history of the Shinobi World!

As he was thinking this, he finally noticed that the world channel had once again exploded because of him.

[World Announcement]: Through an outstanding performance, a mysterious player has earned the unanimous recognition of the Konoha Anbu members and successfully become an Anbu squad captain! Please congratulate him!

[World Announcement]: Through an outstanding performance, a mysterious player has earned the unanimous recognition of the Konoha Anbu members...

[World Announcement]: Through an outstanding performance, a mysterious player has earned the unanimous recognition of the Konoha Anbu members...

Although this World Announcement listed him as a mysterious player, that only caused an even greater stir among all the players.

"Holy shit, I haven't even entered the Ninja Academy yet, and this guy's already a fucking Anbu squad captain?!"

"I specifically asked the local NPCs. They said the Anbu is the most elite force in the entire village, and becoming an Anbu squad captain is even more ridiculously difficult..."

"But that's not the important part. What matters most is that basically every Kage in a village has served as an Anbu squad captain and commanded countless operations..."

"Holy shit, does that mean Konoha's next Hokage could very well be a player?!"
