Konoha Village.
An Anbu wearing a fox mask hid in the trees at the street corner, staking out an Izagaya in the distance.
What bad luck, transmigrating to become an Anbu Chunin, a common Ninja named Night Light.
According to intelligence, there might be a Rock Ninja Spy in that Izagaya.
As it entered the latter half of the night, the Anbu Squad Leader appeared behind Night Light in a flash.
"Fox, there are fewer people in the Izagaya in the latter half of the night. Take off your mask and vest, disguise yourself as an ordinary person, and go in to gather intelligence."
The Squad Leader addressed Night Light by the code name of the mask he had chosen.
Night Light took off his mask, removed his Anbu vest, and unfastened his Ninja tool pouch, hiding only a Kunai on his person.
If he found out the intelligence, that would be for the best.
If he died inside, that would be even better.
His death would be the intelligence.
Night Light held out his hand to the Squad Leader.
The Squad Leader asked in confusion, "Hmm? What do you mean?"
"I don't have money to buy sake. You have to reimburse me for the sake, right? To get information, don't I have to order the most expensive sake? To attract the attention of the Spy?"
The Squad Leader reluctantly took out his wallet from his Ninja tool pouch and pulled out a stack of money.
After Night Light put it away, his hand reached out again.
The Squad Leader took another stack of money: "Don't go too far. It's not a mission where you're guaranteed to die, that's all."
Not guaranteed to die? So there's a chance of death?
Night Light walked into the Izagaya with heavy steps, a mix of strong alcohol, perfume, and body odor assaulted him.
Smelling the perfume and avoiding the strong alcohol smell, Night Light walked to a corner table.
"Give me the most expensive sake!"
The owner of this Izagaya was a beautiful and voluptuous young woman, and upon hearing someone order the most expensive sake, she instantly perked up.
The female boss carried the sake, her eyes full of charm, and came to Night Light's side.
With a bend, her cleavage was momentarily exposed as she placed the sake cup on the table in front of Night Light.
Voluptuous, but not wobbly; underneath the soft fat, there might be muscle, a sign of training.
Night Light was tense, seeing danger in everything.
The female boss's voice was soft and sweet:
"Ninja-sama, have you returned victorious from the front lines? I can recommend some entertainment to help you shake off the fatigue of your front-line mission."
Night Light gulped down an entire bottle of sake.
The sake in this world was not very strong, like Erguotou diluted with plain water. Night Light pretended to be drunk and high:
"Entertainment? Do you know what I experienced on the front lines? What kind of entertainment can help me relax?"
"Private rooms!" The female boss said excitedly, "There are private rooms on the second floor!"
"Private rooms? This Izagaya is quite old. Is the wooden floor shock-proof? If we shake upstairs, will all these people downstairs be eating dust?"
"Hehehe." The female boss covered her mouth and laughed: "Ninja-sama, then shall we go directly to the backyard? There are also private rooms there, and they're not afraid of shaking."
"The backyard is good, I like the backyard. How can this broken wooden building's second floor satisfy me?"
The female boss actively placed Night Light's hand on her slender waist, her chest pressing against Night Light's side, and walked towards the back.
Pulling back the curtain and entering the backyard, the surrounding light instantly dimmed.
The female boss pressed even closer.
The feeling of being tightly embraced by softness was truly wonderful.
If only he wasn't an Anbu, it would be great. He could earn money from missions and then come to this Izagaya to relax.
After entering the side room in the backyard, the female boss forcefully closed the door.
"Ninja-sama, do you prefer Yin Release or Yang Release?"
"I didn't learn anything real in Ninja School. What's the deal with this Yin Release and Yang Release?"
"My Yin Release and Yang Release depend on who is on top, do you understand?"
"On top? Who's on top? I understand."
In addition to the Five Element Release Ninjutsu, some secret Ninjutsu families also master Yin Release and Yang Release, and above ordinary Yin Release and Yang Release, there is even Six Paths-level Yin-Yang Release.
The female boss's Yin-Yang Release was clearly not ordinary Yin-Yang Release.
Night Light almost drooled, but deep in his eyes, he was exceptionally alert.
However, alertness was useless.
With low strength, constant alertness wouldn't reveal anything.
A Kunai pierced Night Light's lower back!
In the darkness, the enemy, using methods Night Light couldn't comprehend, infiltrated behind Night Light and launched a sneak attack.
Just as he was about to cry out, his mouth was sealed by the female boss's lips.
He died, the transmigrator died just like that...
The world plunged into darkness.
Night Light's pupils dilated.
In a certain instant, Night Light woke up again.
The system has arrived.
[Moon Viewing Arc activated!
The Host has only one chance to revive per month, and after death, will revive on the previous full moon night.
Reward one lottery chance:
1 - B-rank Earth Release: Underground Projection Fish Technique (Entry-level);
2 - Chunin-level Chakra (stackable);
3 - Kunai Stab (Mastery).
Note: If killed twice by the same person, the Host will die directly!]
He returned to the 15th, five days ago.
Inside the Anbu's semi-basement, Night Light looked at the full moon outside the high side window.
Moon Viewing Arc, his golden finger.
One revival chance per month, allowing him to return to the previous full moon night.
There were also three lottery chances, and the lottery contents were related to his death.
Facing the three lottery chances, Night Light thought carefully.
Kunai Stab (Mastery): The person who killed him was skilled with Kunai, mastering certain small tricks that made Kunai stabs faster and more powerful.
This ability was somewhat useful, but not greatly so.
The stackable Chunin-level Chakra was not what he most urgently needed right now either.
Night Light chose Earth Release: Underground Projection Fish Technique (Entry-level).
He happened to have Earth Release Chakra, so he could use Earth Release.
This Ninjutsu sounded like a perfect match for infiltration, escape, killing, and looting.
Once one enters Anbu, it's like the deep sea; if you don't act and don't play along, you'll die quickly.
Escaping was impossible; Anbu were not to be trifled with and would hunt him down as a Rogue Ninja.
In an instant, Night Light learned Earth Release: Underground Projection Fish Technique.
After forming three hand signs, Night Light placed his hand on the wall, and his hand slowly disappeared, sinking into the wall.
The wall was like a water surface, ripples appearing under the effect of Chakra.
After pulling his hand out, the wall returned to its original state.
He could move quickly underground, and there would be no trace on the surface.
Not bad, not bad, he finally learned a Ninjutsu.
[Host Status:
Chakra: Chunin-level.
Chakra Nature: Earth.
Ninjutsu: Basic Three Body Technique, Earth Release: Underground Projection Fish Technique.
Taijutsu: Basic Taijutsu (Chunin-level), Basic Kunai Throwing Technique (Chunin-level).
Other: None]
This was truly cannon fodder, so black it was gray.
Taijutsu didn't require much Chakra, and his Chakra was not abundant, making him a Taijutsu-type Chunin who focused on basic training.
At this time, Root had not yet been established. Danzo, as Hiruzen Sarutobi's absolute confidant, managed Anbu on behalf of Hiruzen Sarutobi.
A month ago, Danzo commanded Anbu to engage the Third Raikage in the Land of Hot Water, suffering heavy casualties. More than half of Anbu were lost to the Third Raikage, and Danzo escaped back to Konoha alone.
Anbu urgently expanded recruitment, allowing his original body to join Anbu.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
The Squad Leader walked in.
"Fox, follow me. We're staking out an Izagaya."
The Squad Leader didn't know that Night Light had already heard him say the exact same words a second time.
He silently packed his Ninja tools.
This month's death count was already used up; he absolutely could not die again. If he died again, even the system couldn't save him.
