Vortex Yuka looked at Fox with extreme terror.
Wasn't Fox a Spy for the Senju Clan in the Anbu?
Wait!
Vortex Yuka immediately remembered that when the Exploding Tag first detonated, Fox applied hemostatic agent to the Kunai.
The Kunai didn't penetrate deeply, and with the hemostatic agent, there wasn't much bleeding.
Vortex Yuka persisted and activated the Adamantine Chains.
Night Light, on the other hand, appeared to be overwhelmed, greatly alarmed, and powerless to stop it.
More than a dozen Adamantine Chains flew out, piercing everyone except Night Light.
Both the Cloud Ninja and Captain Ling were struck by this powerful sealing scroll.
Under the effect of the sealing jutsu, everyone was immobilized.
Night Light was secretly pleased; he deliberately applied hemostatic agent to the Kunai to make Vortex Yuka believe he was on her side and not attack him.
The deception was successful; only he was not struck by the Adamantine Chains.
Night Light got up, brandished his Kunai, and killed all the Cloud Ninja one by one.
Captain Ling looked at Night Light's fluid movements with new respect.
The weakest Ninja in this squad, a mere cannon fodder making up the numbers, was growing at an astonishing rate. His timing in attacks was becoming increasingly seasoned, showing the essence of an Anbu Ninja.
Captain Ling lowered his head, saw the chain piercing his abdomen, and felt intense pain.
The Adamantine Chains carried chain darts, and those chain darts had pierced his chest.
The Uzumaki Clan's Adamantine Chains sealing jutsu, capable of materializing Chakra, was truly a terrifying secret jutsu.
Chakra materialization, it was said, involved the realm of Yang Release and was not something ordinary Ninja could master.
Night Light saw Captain Ling's miserable state, but instead of rashly treating the wound, he first snatched the sealing scroll from Vortex Yuka's hand.
He handed the scroll to his Captain: "Mission accomplished, I got it!"
Captain Ling cursed inwardly, thinking, 'I told you to get the complete scroll, not a used one.'
No time to blame Fox, Captain Ling said, "Go! Get out of here!"
Night Light supported Captain Ling and jumped into the woods by the lake.
"Captain! I'll give you a hemostatic agent!"
The hemostatic agent was successfully administered to the Captain's side, and the blood stopped gushing.
In the darkness, Night Light's eyes under his mask were exceptionally bright.
He supported Captain Ling, carefully sensing his physical condition, not missing a single muscle tremor.
In the hemostatic agent, a small portion was medicine, and a large portion was poison.
Vortex Yuka was a Chunin, and the poison used by a Chunin wouldn't be ineffective.
This time, Night Light wouldn't act rashly like last time.
Captain Ling had a Fire Release trump card hidden, and Night Light didn't want to be burned to death again.
The same technique couldn't be used on him twice.
After moving away from the battlefield, Captain Ling gasped and said:
"Fox, your strength is low, but your luck is very good; you always manage to survive to the end. Keep it up, maybe you can grow stronger in the future."
"Thank you for the compliment, Captain."
Captain Ling's breathing became increasingly difficult: "This time, cough cough, the mission failed, but we can choose the next, cough cough, the next Uzumaki squad, and continue to seek the sealing scroll."
Captain Ling's eyes kept blacking out, and he felt it was due to excessive blood loss.
He thought, 'As expected of the Uzumaki Clan, their final counterattack is so terrifying.'
Night Light saw that Captain Ling's condition was not right and quickly asked:
"Captain! If you pass out, how do I contact the superior Squad Leader? I'm afraid I can't treat such a serious injury of yours. Does the squad have a medical Ninja?"
Captain Ling's consciousness began to blur; he felt that Fox was right.
A penetrating wound to the abdomen might mean a ruptured spleen, and it would be best to find the squad's medical Ninja for treatment; hemostatic agent was far from enough.
Captain Ling reached for his Ninja tool pouch but found his vision blurring, and the tool pouch became three, spinning continuously.
Night Light quickly helped, taking a scroll from the tool pouch and handing it to Captain Ling.
Captain Ling shook his head, dizzy, and with a persistent effort, he used a certain method to unseal the scroll:
"Each mission... the cipher unit will formulate... a set... of new ciphers..."
Before he could finish speaking, Captain Ling had already fallen unconscious.
Night Light waited a few seconds, and when he saw Captain Ling was completely unconscious, he formed hand signs and used the Self-Inflicted Curse Sealing.
The sealing curse mark spread all over Captain Ling's body.
After confirming that Captain Ling had no more resistance, Night Light raised his Kunai and plunged it fiercely into the Captain's throat.
Blood gushed out, and Captain Ling woke up in pain from his unconsciousness, seeing the Kunai in front of him and realizing what Fox was doing.
"You..."
The Captain could say no more and died completely.
Night Light couldn't stop; he knew Ninja could extract information from corpses.
The Kunai stabbed down rapidly, prying open Captain Ling's skull and scrambling his brains.
How disgusting.
But also, what a relief.
Captain Ling was finally dead.
He wondered if the Squad Leader would give him a Squad Leader position; he was the only one left in the squad.
After doing all this, Night Light slowly stood up, turned slightly to look around, and after confirming no one was around, he left the place.
He carefully studied the Anbu communication scroll.
Each time the Anbu carried out a large-scale joint mission, a set of communication codes would be compiled to guide the dispersed Anbu squads.
Each squad could use hidden marks to determine where the superior Captain was and in which direction to find the main force.
With this scroll, Night Light would be able to directly find the Squad Leader.
Once he became a Squad Leader, he would directly accept missions, know more information, and no longer be a mere tool.
Night Light returned to the previous battle site and found Vortex Yuka lying on the ground.
Vortex Yuka dared not move; a Kunai was still stuck in her abdomen.
There wasn't much bleeding, but she was afraid of moving, especially of a massive hemorrhage after pulling out the Kunai.
Seeing a figure appear above her, Vortex Yuka breathed a sigh of relief: "Fox, you're here!"
Night Light squatted down and said, "I'm here. I'm sorry, I had to obey the Captain's orders just now. Now I'll help you treat the wound."
Vortex Yuka felt both bewildered and resentful; the Konoha ANBU actually wanted to seize the newly developed sealing scroll of her clan.
Fortunately, Fox was from the Senju Clan and had prepared in advance, applying hemostatic agent to the Kunai, which saved her life.
Pfft!
Vortex Yuka's jaw trembled uncontrollably.
A Kunai was plunged into her throat, blood gushed out, splashing into her mouth.
Night Light felt a slight pang of guilt, which then quickly dissipated.
Applying hemostatic agent to the Kunai was to gain Vortex Yuka's trust, thereby completing Captain Ling's orders more easily.
He was an Anbu Ninja, not some Spy for the Senju Clan.
Who would want to be a Spy for the Senju Clan? That was a clan destined for extinction.
Night Light transmigrated into the Ninja world not to uphold justice; what he wanted was to survive.
Vortex Yuka's eyes were filled with confusion and bewilderment, not understanding why Fox would do this.
Night Light did not explain.
Blame it on knowing too much; you must die here. The secret of the Self-Inflicted Curse Sealing, the secret of secretly opposing Captain Ling—if any of these leaked out, Night Light would die.
The great scientist Newton said, 'May your fellow Daoist die, but not this poor Daoist.'
Night Light searched Vortex Yuka's body but did not find any other Adamantine Chains sealing scrolls.
If there were none, then so be it. After replenishing some Kunai, Night Light disappeared.
